Looking for roleplayers who can consistently write 150-500 words per post. Please be a lengthy RP writer who is either a switch or dominant. It's alright if you're a submissive writer as well but specifically I want to avoid passive writers who don't push the scene forward with every post. Bonus points if you can play your female characters as flirtatious or even slutty. I love it when RP partners add to their own character and have a soft backstory that they make up on the fly. It doesn't need to be well thought out but just something to vaguely reference to. Genres & franchises I'm interested in writing in are as follows: Sengoku Jidai Japan Fantasy Historical Sci-fi Bladerunner DCU James Bond Indiana Jones Marvel Mass Effect Metal Gear Solid Persona Resident Evil Romance of the 3 Kingdoms Saint's Row Silent Hill Star Wars Tomb Raider Witcher
Please be a minimum age of 18+. I hope this post has peaked the interest of several readers and that hopefully we can become roleplay partners. Give this a like and I'll come to you!

19+F here :)) literally NONE of my rps have been consistent or active and I want a consistent rp so here I am again :) so for starters,  I usually stick to the basic third person as it is my favorite pov to role-play in. I am semi literate to literate, I can write anywhere between 2 - 7 paragraphs but my replies are heavily based on how much detail and information is given in your response. Secondly,  I'm looking for MxF where I can be the female, no specific plot in mind right now, I would hope to make up a plot that we would both agree on.Triggers and such will be discussed in DMs before roleplay, NSFW is welcomed as well, just don't let it overrule the plot please. Third and lastly! I am in a few fandoms if you are looking for a fandom rp! such as: I've played a few video games such as unchartered, tomb raider, and Skyrim. As far as shows, the only one I'd be interested in doing is The Last Of Us. KPOP (BTS, Ateez, stray kids, TXT etc,) Anime (Naruto, demon slayer, Tokyo ghoul and a little bit of spy x family)
I would prefer to rp on discord! like this and I'll reach out to you!

Heyo! I'm looking to do an Uncharted or Tomb Raider roleplay! (Preferably Uncharted)
I've played all the games, though I will be honest, the complete story is a little hazey for me. That being said, I'm willing to follow the games or AU for a different approach.
I need for my partner to be 18+, at least semi-lit, available to double, and okay with mature themes such as Depression/Gore. Triggers and NSFW can and will be discussed before we rp.
Pairings include
BxG
- Nathan Drake x Lara Croft (Me as Lara)
- Nathan Drake x OC (Me as OC)
- Samuel Drake x OC (Me as OC)
GxG
- Lara Croft x OC (Me as OC)
((Doubling is available, and pairings are up for discussion!!!))
Feel free to message me, reblog, or like and I'll reach out.
Feel free to travel on if you're here to be Human SpellCheck-

I'm a TTRPG designer, and also a big fan of the video game Terraria. I'm stuck on fun ways to handle material gathering and crafting. Send me some inspiration! Thanks!
THEME: Gathering and Crafting
Hello friend! Putting this one together was very fun. I hope you enjoy it!

Stoneburner, by Fari RPGs.
Stoneburner is a sci-fantasy solo-friendly demon-hunting community-building tabletop role-playing game.Inspired by the new school revolution movement, players take on the role of a group of dwarves who must assume control of a demon haunted mine, along with its accompanying settlement, which they inherited after the death of their distant relative.The game focuses on the dwarves' journey as they navigate the challenges of their new responsibilities, rebuild a new thriving community, and clear the mine of its fire spitting monsters.
A techno-fantasy game of exploration and survival. You’ll be delving into a mine to extract resources and attempting to maintain and protect your community not just from magical beasts, but also greedy and plotting rivals. The system is built on Breathless, which is pretty rules-lite on the face but has a lot of possibility to expand, borrowing quite a bit from the NSR but giving the GM specific cues where they have a license to complicate the story. You’ll find a lot of familiar pieces here, with character classes, special abilities, and loot tables. Stoneburner isn’t fully ready to be published quite yet, but in the meantime you can check out the free preview!
Hostile (Rules and Setting), by Zozer Games.
Welcome to the gritty, retro-future universe of HOSTILE. Based on the Cepheus Engine, these rules add in realistic combat rules as well as setting-specific rules from some of the eighteen HOSTILE supplements. When combined with its companion book, the HOSTILE Setting, you will have a complete, stand-alone, retro-future sci-fi game. HOSTILE is a gritty, near future roleplaying setting that is inspired by movies like Outland, Bladerunner and Alien. It is a universe of mining installations, harsh moons, industrial facilities, hostile planets and brutal, utilitarian spacecraft.
When I looked up info about this game, HOSTILE was described as not an ALIEN RPG, but rather an RPG that you could plug Alien into. It’s a space horror setting, but what kind of space horror is up to you. The Rulebook has rules on trade, salvaging, and other pieces of resource management, while the setting book contains construction rules for your own mega-ton spaceship. There’s also plenty of colonies, survival rules, campaign advice and encounter tables. If this is interesting to you, I’d recommend checking out the Double Shift Bundle, which offers both the Rulebook and the Setting Book for 20% off.
Forbidden Lands, by Free League Publishing.
Forbidden Lands is a new take on classic fantasy roleplaying. In this open-world survival roleplaying game, you’re not heroes sent on missions dictated by others - instead, you are raiders and rogues bent on making your own mark on a cursed world. You will discover lost tombs, fight terrible monsters, wander the wild lands and, if you live long enough, build your own stronghold to defend.
As raiders and rogues, in Forbidden Lands you will need to scavenge to survive. Built on Free League’s Year Zero Engine, this game uses an abstract resource called consumables which your characters will have to find regularly, because food goes bad and you can only carry so many things. The game focuses on the dangers of the road, although not all dangers are terrifying - you’re not fighting orcs all the time - sometimes you’re just battling mosquitoes and cold weather. There’s also rules about building, maintaining, and defending a stronghold, which sounds kind of similar to building and defending your house in Terraria. There’s a lot to keep track of in Forbidden Lands, and as long as you don’t mind playing characters with a somewhat loose moral compass, this game might be for you!
A Fistful of Darkness, by monkeyEcho.
A Fistful of Darkness is a Weird West Fantasy hack of Blades in the Dark with heavy emphasis on the fantasy part. It’s not intended to be an accurate history lesson or a simulation of past times. It is designed to be a cinematic game which lets you play all those Weird West tropes towards the end of the world.
Imagine a world with the magic and mystery of the frontier: wide open plains of the Old Wild West in all its beauty and madness, where violence and sacrifice dominate every single day. Now add the Hellstone rush, underground mayhem in mines and brand new sciences & machines. Don’t forget immigration, injustice, vigilante justice, outlaws, gunslingers, slick talkers and setting suns. This all in the face of an impending doom: Demons and the four riders bringing the end of the world as you know it. How do you make it to the top of this powder keg, which side will you take in the impending war and how much will your soul suffer? Let’s play to find out!
Forged in the Dark games abstract your resources a bit, but the Hellstone of A Fistful of Darkness is so important to the setting that you’ll find yourselves doing whatever you can to get your hands on it. It’s a crafting material, it’s currency, and it’s the bringer of mutations and curses, what with it being a demonic material and all. Because you’ll be running a group playbook alongside your own characters, you’ll be working together to improve your tools, allies, abilities and home base, especially if you choose the Scavengers Posse. If you like action and suspense as much as you like inventory and communal goals, then this game is for you.
LOOT, by Gila RPGs.
Do you love loot? Then you're in the right place.
Go on quests, find loot, do it all over again. Your character is entirely defined by the loot they wear and carry. Loot is generated and passed out at the end of each quest with a dynamic loot pool system.
This is an application of the LUMEN system that eschews dice. Players have a number of uses for each of their approaches, which can be spent to overcome obstacles. Complications arise when you have to cobble together a solution using a different approach, or when you avoid marking an approach at all. This is a game still in a free playtest, so the designer is happy to hear feedback if you decide to give it a whirl!

In 2023 I published 19 works on Ao3, totalling 44,982 words. Of those nineteen, eighteen were Harry Potter and one was Tomb Raider.
I wrote three drarry microfics: Roleplay (193 words), Travel (89 words) and Skirt (117 words).
Out of the rest of the fifteen works, four of them were femslash:
Little Agonies (Padma/Lavender) (898 words)
Parvati is always there for Lavender after a transformation.
and an endless sky, stretching high above (Luna/Ginny) (2006 words)
After the war, Ginny wishes she could become someone else.
for Hp Saffics Femslash February Bingo 2023.
her eyes (Charity/Narcissa) (1044 words) for Kill Your Darlings 2023.
Her eyes are the hardest part.
Visceral (Hermione/Pansy, E) (483 words)
How did they get here? Pansy isn’t sure. Everything’s hazy, since the war, but Granger is solid.
The other eleven works were M/M, with ten of them drarry and one of them Sirius/Draco.
Sirius/Draco was 'dirty filthy secret' based on @basiatlu's art of them: To Touch You is Like Swimming in Mercury.
DRARRY:
'Bramble' for HP Fruitfest. Werewolf Draco. (749 words)
Long fingers pluck a blackberry from the bramble bush, and place it onto a pink tongue. Rolling it around his mouth, savouring the sweet-sour taste, before biting it with white, sharp teeth, and it goes pop in his mouth. 
'Sweetie' For H/D Candy Hearts Fest (311 words)
Harry had always known that Malfoy’s mouth was obscene, but this was something else entirely.
Touched, Fate, Silver and Gold, and Sharp for HP Microfic May.
'a voice reaching out in a piercing cry' (E, Noncon) (1707 words)
You can’t see. You can’t hear. You can’t move.
Black Mass with Fangs (E) (3236 words)
After the war, the Ministry takes his voice.
both for my Bad Things Happen Bingo.
And then two fics that weren't for a fest:
Sucker (E) (5,048 words)
Harry begrudgingly comes back to Hogwarts for his Eighth Year, and finds himself sharing a room with Draco Malfoy. It leads to some unexpected revelations.
In The Woods Somewhere (WIP)(E, Noncon) (25,999 words) Fenrir/Draco, Draco/Harry.
Draco can't remember what the world was like before Fenrir took him. His life is the cabin and the woods that surround it. But one night in winter, Fenrir kidnaps a man he calls an old enemy, and Draco's life is forever changed.
Tomb Raider:
Scar Tissue for Febuwhump 2023. (Sam/Lara, 852 words)
Lara has so many scars.

Frequently Asked Questions
Other Accounts
Tumblr media
Q: How do you make your Cyberpunk 2077 screenshots? A: The main tool I use is the Appearance Menu Mod, which is used to spawn NPCs, decor, and lighting. I wrote a very detailed guide on how to get started with AMM, available here.
Please note as of December 2022, this guide is somewhat out of date, and I haven't had the time to update it. The method described here still works, but there are other options that are less cumbersome. You can check my CP77 Help tag for more recent information.
I also use Reshade for the Cinematic DOF and Real Long Exposure shaders, and I occasionally use the paid Otis Injectable Camera for hotsampling or if I need to unlock more camera movement. All color editing is done in Adobe Lightroom and Photoshop.
Q: What mods do you recommend? A: I have a list that I update every few months that links all the publicly available mods I use in my game as well as a more general mod tag for any mods that look interesting/useful.
I’ve also dabbled in making some of my own mods (mostly pose packs), which are available for free at my Ko-fi shop.
Q: Is Valerie's preset/NPV publicly available? A: Nope, I only share Valerie with very close friends who I know will take good care of her.
Q: Is Valerie available for RPing or OC shipping? A: Although I'm very flattered by the interest, she is not. This is not a roleplaying blog, and while I love getting to know about other people's OCs, I'm currently not interested in Valerie having a romantic past with anyone else's characters. However, I am open to plotting non-romantic relationships between Valerie and mutuals' OCs. 💙
Q: Do you take commissions? A: I currently don't take commissions of any kind, although I am sometimes open to art trades with mutuals (art for art, VP for VP, or VP for art). I can't guarantee my schedule will permit it, but if it's something you're interested in, feel free to send me a DM! 💙

If anon is looking for western AAA games there’s like red dead redemption assassin’s creed fallout franchise mass effect tomb raider watch dogs deus ex etc. most of those are already open world RPGs of different genres. Most rpgs published by major companies go for open world nowadays.
I still suggest sailing the high seas for AAA though unless you’re supporting them for their diverse content or wait until they go like 50-70% sale. In this economy those prices are not worth it for the amount of content they give and the increase in sales doesn’t even really go to the dev teams anyway its more direct to the company. For me its just a metric to tell the companies I want more diverse content. Support Indie devs steam has its own indie tag to make it easy to find!
or if AAA isn’t a necessity open up steam and search by tag. I got 1200 results checking fantasy open world and rpgs on steam.
Some particular suggestions that I haven’t seen though I guess its because its been like 4 years since their release?:
- The Outer Worlds open world rpg scifi shooter is made by a AA company which is known for Fallout New Vegas Pillars of Eternity and SWTOR KOTOR II. The player character doesn’t get a romance but you do get a companion who is a sapphic asexual and you can help her get a girlfriend. Its has choices and relationships in a similar style to FNV
- Tell Me Why is a narrative adventure game by Dontnod who made Life is Strange. It features a trans man as one of the leads and Dontnod had this on their FAQ https://www.tellmewhygame.com/faq/ : “Trans, nonbinary and gender non-conforming staff at both DONTNOD and Xbox have made countless key creative contributions to Tell Me Why, including in character design, narrative and dialogue, building inclusive online spaces for the game, and much more. To ensure that Tyler’s character would resonate with a wide and diverse audience of trans people, the Tell Me Why team worked closely with two of GLAAD’s transgender staff: Nick Adams, Director of Transgender Representation; and Blair Durkee, Special Consultant for Gaming. For over two years, Nick offered foundational guidance on story and character, consulted on casting, and reviewed scripts at all phases of production. Importantly, August Black, Tyler’s voice actor [who is trans], also made significant contributions to Tell Me Why’s dialogue. During recording sessions, August provided edits to the script if he felt a certain line or moment did not do justice to Tyler’s story, making him an invaluable part of the creative process. August’s personal experiences also inspired key moments and lines of dialogue.”
I say why go for a game who names a trans character in the same ignorant way it named Cho and Kingsley when you could go for games that have creators who genuinely care for and listen to the perspectives and rights of the people they’re trying to represent right? In addition to all the other issues.
if magical systems in particular are a need aside from open world rpgs:
- Tiny Tina’s Wonderland – if you’re more familiar with borderlands this is a spinoff but spellcasting instead of guns
- Pillars of Eternity is fantasy from the same studio as outer worlds and is really good. Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire was the latest release
the TES games have been mentioned but I wanted to reiterate that there are 5-6 magic schools and 100+ spells for those games. Worldbuilding and roleplaying is very fun and makes it quite repeatable so worth the money. They all also have quite a prolific modding community especially oblivion and skyrim and it isn’t that hard to download mods to personalize the game. But even without mods its still fun to replay and go on sale along with ESO often enough
Most JRPGs in general have magic systems and are largely open world. All of the final fantasy games have magic. Adjacent is kingdom hearts. I’ll just add the Shin Megami Tensei series which is related to Persona. The Atelier series brand is alchemical magic. The “Tales of ____” of bandai namco series allows you to main the magical casting characters if you wish. Ni No Kuni is again fantasy setting. Valkyrie Elysium was recently released. Xenoblade Chronicles 3 too was released last year.
Forspoken is a recent game published by SquareEnix so its technically jrpg but its setting is western with a black main character that was rendered based off the VA who is half black caribbean. The main character is based in New York then gets transported to a fantasy world where she gains magic and mixes that up with parkour style movement. if you can’t afford it yet wait for a sale.
Check out golden week for sales since they tend to really go low for JRPGs during that time more than any other sale
Some indie games that have witchy elements:
Flying Neko delivery – if you like studio ghibli and kiki’s delivery service why not fly around on a broom as a cat making deliviries?
Little witch nobeta – you play as a little witch to explore ancient castles. The magical system is a bit limited but at the price you’re getting it I think its a good deal
Little Witch in the woods – 2d pixel art in the style of old school rpgs you play as a witch and make potions and cast spells, help people and refurbish your house.
Potion craft – not an rpg but its an alchemy simulator
Kena: bridge of spirits – not witchy but it has magic and exploration. Not quite open world in that you tend to travel linearly but you’re free to go back to places you’ve explored before. The gaming company partnered with a vietnamese animation studio and they based the animation on the environment of SEA/East Asia so if you’re from there and find the environmental aspects familiar in a fantastical way like buildings and the way the characters were conceptualized that’s why. from where im frm Kena costs the equivalent of $15 but it seems like its still expensive on steam US though as it costs $40? it tends to get 50% off on epic stores though so you can wait for its sale there
some upcoming indie games aside from witchbrook:
kitori academy – should be coming out this year. You’re a magical apprentice going to school to learn magic.
Lawmage academy – 2d pixel art old school style where you go to an academy to learn spells and craft potions

...so what exactly is On Mighty Thews?
It's the best tabletop roleplaying game.
Alright, that might not be the most helpful answer. But it's certainly one of my favourites, especially when running it, for a couple of big reasons.
Firstly, it's very simple, very stripped-back in its mechanics. Characters are simplified to the point that they're just six lines long - and short lines at that - and you can finish a whole combat scene in two or three rolls. Stripping down the rules to that degree makes it very easy to keep the story rolling, without getting stuck choosing between spells or deciding exactly who needs to attack which goblin.
Secondly, the rules get the players involved in creating the world - not just at the start of the game, but constantly. Every time something new shows up in the game, the players get to roll to see what they know about it, and what they know is always made up on the spot by the player. It's a fabulous way to ensure that the game contains the sort of things your players want to see - because they get to put them there!
Now, technically speaking, the game is aimed at creating a pulp-fantasy feel, in the mould of stories like Conan, or Red Sonja, or Fafhrd and the Grey Mouser, and it works very well for that sort of story. But because the system is so broad, it can apply just as easily to other settings without changing anything much at all. So you can play in a dark, dystopian future, or have a modern-day Tomb Raider-style adventure without really doing that much extra work!
Naturally, you can expect to see it show up pretty frequently in future episodes.
