Looking for a Game LOOKING FOR A GAME TO PLAY IN: Character[s] wanted: Original, specifically this one (Herrick Turner) About me and what I want in a game: I have been RPing for a really long time, coming on 21 years now. I'm a writer and IJ has always been a fun outlet for me in meeting new people and staying busy interacting with multiple characters all at once which I've always adored. Well, I left for a couple of years and now when I return everything's different - hopefully in a good way but I've completely lost touch with anyone who ever knew me and since most of my movement between games came from word of mouth I'm at a bit of a loss.
I'm looking for a game that is compromised of OC's. I'm not against a game that has a premise based off of a book/movie/tv series. I want a game that is active. My definition of active is a lively community with multiple IC/journal entry posts a day with players who return tags multiple times a day - players who sit down to write and don't just pop on to tag posts and then leave again for the day.
I would love a game where I can play this guy, my friendly neighborhood Herrick Turner. In my time on IJ I've modded several games and my concern is someone might check out his profile and worry about godmodding or gary-stu territory but I promise that's not the case. He is a vampire from the Roman Empire, current drug pusher and ne'er do well. Herrick would fit in with a game that would be in need of a good villain - the charismatic you love to hate him sort of weirdo. If you think you have anything where he would fit or just a good OC based game please let me know. What I don't want in a game: I do not want a game that is fandom filled. For example: a Harry Potter game with Harry Potter characters from the series I am uninterested in. A Harry Potter game filled with original characters that follow the constraints of the Potterverse is fine.
I also wouldn't be interested in a game with a huge amount of world-specific backstory that would be hard to get get caught up on.
I am not interested in PWP games. Where do you prefer? IJ/LJ/GJ/SCRIBBLD/OTHER: IJ. Googledoc for a PSL
