Ok, that's fine! Would you like to create and elaborate on a plot and then create characters?
I like fantasy plots and or something to do with everyday problems like disorders
Sweet! So what kind of plot do you want to play out? I think and adventure to some kind of unknown lands with some danger and thrills could be fun with interesting ways of getting there.
Ok! We can work with that! Sweet! So how about the two characters meet at bus stop and happen to get off at the same stop and talk while walking a but, but then they hear something in an ally way and investigate. They go through some kind of portal behind a dumpster and come out in a new world and go from there. That sound ok?
I'm thinking we can have out characters as demigods. Make this a Percy Jackson rp
Name: Castiel WalkerAge:17

Has Tourette's syndrome causing him to blink or have facial ticks when nervous
My character is a daughter of Apollo blessed by Aphrodite.
My character is child of Hephaestus with a knack for on the spot tinkering/thinking
Ok, so before we start, should the characters know each other from camp half blood and are just kind of acquaintances that happen to live near each other? Or should they meet each other not knowing that the other is a half blood?
And yeah, I can start once we decide if they know each other.
I guess it'll be fun if they didn't know, but one of them does something that gives away the secret and then the other tells their secret too.
Ok. Here we go. It was a dreary day in April and it was raining. Great I thought, I get to stand at this bus stop in the rain. I had just finished class at the highschool and was headed home to my apartment I shared with my dad. I'd so rather be training at camp halfblood right now! I can't wait to be sword fighting and not worrying about an AP Bio exam. As I stood at the bus stop I noticed a girl in the corner, nervously glancing over her shoulder every few minutes. I could relate to that, you never know when some kind of monster would jump you. That's was the halfblood life, and that's exactly what I was.
(For a first time role player, you're pretty good at this. Nice!)Selene was waiting for the bus to show up. Her car had broken down and she had left it at home today. She didn't really enjoy going on the bus, not because it was noisy and filled with strangers and weird people, it was because she feared a monster or an enemy might be perched on one of the bus seats. And if they found out she was in their,they would definitely come after her,making her life more hell than it already was and Ofcourse the mortals wouldn't know about anything. She thought she heard something and quickly turned around to see.
It was just a squirrel.
She sighed in relief and turned back around.
As he waited, Castiel kept his eye on the girl in the corner, not just because she was cute, but because he felt connected to her somehow. Nothing he could explain at least. As the bus pulled up, the girl was the first on and he was the last. He always tried to be last so he could scout who was on it in case he got a bad feeling about any of the passengers. Once he was on, he glanced around for a seat. But the bus was almost completely full and the only open seat was next to the girl he had noticed earlier. Worse things could happen he thought, and so he took the seat next to her giving a small smile when she glanced at him.
(Anytime. :) )Selene got onto the bus and knew it was safe. For now atleast. More people could get on. Who knows,maybe danger might get on the bus on the next stop. She sat down by the window and looked at all the people around her. They were all leading normal happy lives. How she wished she could switch her life with any of them. She was lost in thoughts when she felt someone slide into the seat besides her. Instantly she was on guard but when she turned, it was a boy about the same age as her. The first thing she noticed was how chiselled his features were as if they were sculpted by a talented sculpture. Next thing that hit her was a sort of familiarity. She didn't know him at all,then how and why did she feel a link to him?
Once settled in his seat, he stole a look at the girl next to him. Something was nagging at the back of his mind but he couldn't pin it down. She was very pretty, with a kind smile and a soft features, but the glint in her eyes told him that she could take care of herself and she'd seen a lot. As the bus started moving, he thought about trying to talk to her, but as the thought more on it, he started blinking uncontrollably. That was his Tourette's acting up. Whenever he got nervous, it happened. Especially when he talked to people. Machines and automations were so much easier to deal with! And this girl was really making him blink! Finally he managed, "Hi, I'm Castile"
Selene sensed his nervousness and she really wanted to break the ice but before she could say anything, the boy spoke up. She smiled as she turned to face him and noticed how nervous he actually was. She decided to ease him of that."Hi Castile!"She smiled in the most brightest and most welcoming smile. "I'm Selene,nice to meet you."She offered her hand to him.
She replied with a warm smile and a kind, "hi Castiel!" And offered her hand to him. This made him feel so much better and he finally got his blinking under control. But still! She seemed so familiar! It was killing him! Did he know her from school? Track? Maybe saw her on tv? He just couldn't place it! He realized he was lost in thought and shook his head, "sorry, I was just taken aback." And he shook her hand. He couldn't take it anymore and bluntly asked, "do I know you? You seem very familiar to me." He instantly realized there were about a million smoother, cooler ways to say this and thought to himself, yep, I definitely need to work on people skills.
She realised he was lost in thought and she face him his time,and then he snapped back to reality. She was took back when he asked her the exact same thing on her mind. This is so strange, she thought to herself and before she had a chance to reply, the bus doors opened and she knew at once something terrible was about to happen. She averted her gaze to the person_or two men as she later realised, make their way to the back of the bus. She could sense something off.Danger.
The only thing running in her mind. She had to get off that bus.
He was waiting for an answer when all of a sudden, she glanced at the newly boarding passengers and then tensed up. Was it something he said? But then he too looked at the new passengers and immediately froze. Oh crap. The two men who had just boarded the bus were bad news. Of course, the mortals weren't worried, then again, why had Selene tensed? He turned back and she was pale and had her jaw clenched. He quickly asked in a nervous voice, "do you know them?"
She was tense. Should she tell him? This boy obviously knew something,she could see his shoulders tense as well. Here goes. She decided to tell him. If he was like her he'd get it, but if he wasn't he'd think she was crazy. "They're not mortals. "They're shape shifters."She said without taking her eyes off them. One of the guys was staring right back at her and she felt the hair on her neck stand up.
"Wait, how do you know that! Wait, you are like me aren't you?" He was shocked. What are the odds he would meet another halfblood on the bus! But he'd have to think about that later. Right now he had two shape shifters to deal with. He unzipped his bag and gripped a celestial bronze dagger he kept there. He never liked fighting with a knife but he knew it was his only option. He glanced over and asked, "do you have anything to fight them with? We need to get off of this bus without causing a disturbance and fast. That's when he noticed the emergency exit window next to them. And he said, "ever jumped out of a moving bus?"
Selene heard the man growl as Castile grabbed the knife from his bag. She reached behind her back and her bow and arrows appeared. They could appear whenever she needed them and disappear at will. "Jumped off of a building.. jumped off a bridge...but a moving bus? Nope never done that before."She responded before she took his hand and jumped off as the two males began making their way over.
The landing was rough and he tried to take the brunt of the fall because on his last trip to camp halfblood, he forged an incredibly light weight armor that looked like a t-shirt. He landed on his back and she fell on top of him taking the worst of the fall with his armor. It worked like a charm and couldn't help but chuckle at his creation. They got up and he took her hand and sprinted down the street. Sometime during the escape a bow had appeared on her back. Nice he thought, I'm starting to like this girl more and more. But they weren't out of the woods yet. They were being pursued by the 2 shapeshifter. He quickly brought a contraption out of his bag that would spring a net when their pursuers came close, but with their claws and teeth, he knew it would only buy them a minute or two.
"Ouch."She grunted as she fell on top of him,but as quick as her reflexes were she got up and was being led by him into the forest in no time. She glanced back to see their pursuers gaining on them. She took an arrow and shot one, it delayed one of hem atleast. The other just got more annoyed. She mounted another arrow and let it fly. It hit the man but it was not enough to hurt him too bad. She cursed under her breath and kept running.
Selene had let two arrows fly and they found their targets. She was one heck of a shot! Just as the second arrow caught the second attacker, my trap i had tossed behind me sprang and ensnared the two attackers, but i was all out of tricks. I really hope Selene has a plan! We had entered a forest and I was unsure where we were, but there was a rock shelf and said, "we should get to some high ground so we can see me coming and maybe you could even use them as pin cushions for your arrows.
Selene nodded. "That sounds like an excellent idea." She started climbing up and as soon as she reached top she scanned the area bellow. She could see the second male still a little hurt because of the arrow but the first male she had shot had fallen. She had thought he had died or was atleast injured enough to stay out. As she moved her gaze to where he had been she noticed he was no longer there. Alarms went off in her head. "Castile.."She was about to tell him of this news before a hand grabbed her from behind and she yelled in horror. The first man had made his way to here before them and without getting caught. She realised, these monsters weren't just some ordinary ones,they had clever minds and a purpose.
All he heard was a "Castiel..." before he turned and saw that Selene was now the hostage of one of the shape shifters. Schist. The second was still at the bottom of the hill and didn't seem to be making any moves upward. He still had his knife but he was ten feet from where the shapeshifter had his claws to Selene's throat. His mind was racing. He needed time, so he stalled. "Wow you guys are pretty quick, haven't had the pleasure of meeting a shapeshifter before." He only got a growl in return. He needed to act fast. He saw some pebbles to the right and got an idea. Not a good one. Pretty basic, but it was his only hope. He took a long look at Selene and she seemed to know he was about to do something. He hoped she was ready. He reached a rock about the size of a baseball and wedged his foot underneath it. Here we go. He kicked the rock at the creature and tossed his dagger hilt first toward Selene. He really hoped she caught it.
Selene watched, the only thing she could do, as Castile stalled while thinking of a plan. He gave her a long look and she realised what he was upto as he directed his gaze towards the rocks. As soon as he threw the items, her reflexes kicked in and she grabbed the dagger,sinking it into the monster's neck. As his grip loosened around her neck she pushed him hard enough to fall down and with their lick he fell upon his friend and crushed him by doing so. She fell to the ground and gasped for breath as the two monsters dissolved into dust.
(I have to go to track practice for a few hours. Be back as soon as possible.)Castiel just sat there. Tired. Wow, that was crazy. He was glad he had met Selene because he wasn't sure he'd be alive if he'd taken them by himself. She had handled herself expertly. As she sat there, gasping after having claws at her throat a thought occurred to him, "Now don't get me wrong, I'm happy you're alive, but why did he take you hostage? They usually just kill on sight. I wonder what that was about. Are you ok?"
Once she felt her breathing had steadied she looked up at him and decided to tell him. "I don't know if You know this or not but our camp is in danger. A half blood named Nathaniel is trying to recruit demigods to his side. They're taking the strongest and most capable of warriors and bringing them to the dark side. He's doing this under the orders of Kronos as he and the other Titans seek revenge against the Gods. So many campers have disappeared and I believe it's the Doing of Nate. He once offered me to join him. He was a very strong person,a boy with all the skills of leadership and he was charming. He had a way with his words. He's the son of Hecate and he's felt that Gods don't really care about their children and only use them to fight their battles. Kronos fed him lies and made him hate the Gods even more. He tried to convince the campers that their godly parents didn't care about them but when Chiron found out he vanished him from camp and ever since he swore he would get his revenge." She explained and then lay back for a while. "We're all doomed." She said softly.
(I'm able to fit on more, score!) "What!" Castiel exclaimed, "I had no clue this was happening! We gotta stop him! But what are we gonna do?" He was completely floored upon hearing this news. He had known Kronos was stirring, but now he was recruiting demigods! This was bad! He steadied himself and decided, "I don't think camp is safe if that's where the other halfbloods are disappearing. I have a weapons cache in a forest by my house just north of here. We can stock up and then I think we'd better go after this Nathaniel kid. Will you join me?" He really hoped she would, she was tough, skilled, and clever. He could use the help. He really wanted to put a stop to this and hoped he wouldn't have to do it alone.
"Ofcourse I'll join you!"she smiled and got up. "Let's end this and prove mate wrong."she said as she dusted herself off and then looked at Castiel. "Oh um by the way thanks for helping me, really appreciate that."she smiled sweetly,almost shyly,and hugged him.
She accepted and thanked him for his help, then she did something unexpected, she hugged him. Castiel was never the one to talk to girls and he didn't really have much experience with people in general. The closest he got to a hug is when he was at camp halfblood trying to restrain a faulty automation, but yet the hug was warm. He liked it and gladly returned the hug. Then he said, "I'm the one who should be thanking you! You're pretty lethal with arrows and a blade! We better get going. I have supplies at the cache and some rations, we should be able to camp there for the night." He had found a friend, and he was happy. So they headed off towards his hideout.
She nodded and got going. She let him lead her to his cabin as camp was too dangerous to go to. "We'll need to come with a plan to stop all this" she said thinking ahead.
"I agree. Lets walk and talk." Castiel said. "Ok, so we need to find where the HQ for these guys and then we need to get there. I don't know where they are or what we need to do once we get there, but I was hoping you might have some ideas, seeing that you know more. I just can't believe so many demigods would cross over though! It infuriates me!" Before he got himself all worked up and causing a lot of facial ticks, he took a deep breath and leveled out. Man it really bugged him how people could do that!
"He's using their weak spots to lure them to his side." She explained. "the demigods don't always get enough time with their godly parents and he's using that against them,not to mention God's do send a lot of their kids on dangerous quests."She sighed."He's feeding them with lies which unfortunately mound with the how the kids are treated. I mean sure the Gods are busy but that is something that Nate is using to bring kids to his side. And as I mentioned,he's a charmer. He's got the looks and the words, so no wonder so many kids joined him."
"Ah, I see. You know, my dad told me something a while a go. Something like, silver tongues often lie in the mouths of devils. I guess that's what he meant. And I'm sure the looks help, sounds like even you gotta admit it" Castiel replied jokingly and gave a muffled smile at the annoyed look he received. "Man looks like we got a looooooong journey in front of us, and I feel like I barely know you! So what led you to this wild ride?"
She got a bit annoyed because she had in fact been charmed by him but she knew it was just his magic,not his personality. She decided to forget about him...for now, as she walked. "Well I received this news via my dad, Apollo, and I knew what any good daughter would do. I decided to take matters into my own hand and I decided to put an end to this. I was hoping I could gather an army of my own but that will be a little harder than expected."
So can I play the female? Or would u like doubles?
