Seattle; Drop by Drop (Original fantasy/supernatural creature roleplaying site)
Seattle; Drop by Drop is an urban fantasy/supernatural creature site, set in modern day Seattle. We've got a wide variety of playable races, from witches and necromancers to vampires and lycans, and several completely unique races like the Viri, (who are much more than -just- winged humans), the Idimmu, (refugees from other dimensions with colorful skin, wings, horns, and more) Shapeshifters, who come in several varieties; animals, reptiles, plants, and even a class who can shift their gender. And our newest race, the Deasura, who you might know by the name 'mermaids', but I can assure you, these are far from the cuddly disney versions you know.
We're a friendly and welcoming site, active but laid back. We've got a lot of great things for members, from a 'Searching For' section to a Player Adoptions section, writing challenges, IC diaries, and more. Our plot is basically member driven and open, but we also have monthly, site wide storylines that anyone can get in on. There's no word count; we have a variety of players who post anywhere from 120-2500 words on average. And our apps are short! Just basic info like height, age and weight, with a focus on the history.
We like to let people have choices, whether it's using a celeb/musician/stock model or none at all for their playby, or writing in 1st or 3rd person. We also have the Sub Accounts mod, so we let players choose whether to use an accounts-per-player style or an accounts-per-character style linked to a main OOC account.
We're self hosted, but don't let that intimidate you; it's a very user friendly board software, and because it's self hosted, you won't have to worry about downtime or shutdowns. We're also very laid back, encouraging members to register and hang around getting to know people rather than demanding applications be posted the minute you join.
So please give us a look, and if you have any questions, please catch us on the cbox!
