Vespian's very, very, very, very picky when it comes to joining role-plays.
There is yet to be a group to catch my loyalty, bluntly said.
I seek originality. I dislike the mainstream and stray from your common wolf packs and warrior cat role-plays and lion prides. Plot means everything to me and dedication to said plot and its unraveling. I won't join half-butted role-plays or role-plays with very little preparation before opening day. The role-plays I have built up have taken months of careful writing and lore fleshing and even some are still under my magnifying glass, picking out every little flaw for proper correction. Others needn't be as detailed as the ones that scream in my head... but regardless, I always appreciate a bit of effort.
That being said, when it comes to species, I can lean on the realistic scale but I expect the plot to make up for it. It could just be me, but my part-time as an author and the ideas that flourish into my head make my expectations rather high. I want a role-play to wow me, a role-play to seize my breath away, a role-play that'll leave me eager to show just what I can do to assist its development and continuation.
Unfortunately, no role-plays ever since 2015 have lit a spark in my eye. Nowadays, I just blot down any ideas I may have to get my muse to shut up.
I do join occasional role-plays here and there but I don't tend to stick around for very long. I can grow bored rather quickly as, again, my expectations are high.
If I had my say, I'd want more horror-themed role-plays. No, none of that, "Jason Voorhees chasing one through the woods," scenario. I do not seek serial killers, I do not seek plagued victims. I do not seek your typical bad guy vs the good guy.
Instead, I want a role-play that questions morals. Religion, discrimination, abuse, cultural differences, psychology, etc. Topics not regularly touched by the masses. Topics one wouldn't want to touch. My eye glistens when I see horror that makes one question themselves and what they believe to be right or to be wrong, if there even is such a thing as "being wrong," but I digress.
The problem is, most are not written the way that would leave me wanting but again, I digress.
I've always been a sucker for tragedy, too. Icing on the cake.
