Druid Drop Bears Are Real

[_Heda_]

Greetings from the Land Down Under!

Hey there! You can call me whatever suits—I'm not too picky, but I do respond best to snacks and story hooks.

I'm a little late to the introduction party as I've been floating around here for a little while, but better late than never, right?

I'm an Aussie writer who's been lost in fictional worlds for as long as I can remember. Between juggling life, late-night writing sessions, and way too many D&D campaigns (both as a player and a DM), I somehow still find time to dive into RP. I enjoy weaving complex, character-driven plots that blur the line between light and dark, action and emotion.

Genres I Love to Write:
High fantasy (give me dragons, curses, gods, and kingdoms)
Supernatural with a twist (think modern occult, vampires, or ancient beings)
Slow-burn romance (I love tension, banter, and messy feelings over smut)
Darker plots with emotional weight—betrayal, revenge, morally grey choices
Mafia/political intrigue (power games, loyalty, secrets)
And the occasional slice of life when I need to breathe!

A Few Quick Facts:

• Literate/novella-style writer (but I always match energy!)
• Based in Australia (GMT+8), so I might be online when you're not—don't worry, I never ghost without reason
• Obsessive D&D fan—let me know if your character has a tragic backstory and a magic item they definitely shouldn't have
• Fav fandoms include The Lord of the Rings, The 100, Solo Leveling, and Devil May Cry
• OOC friendly and always happy to brainstorm ideas or build worlds together!

If you're looking for a co-writer who enjoys a balance of grit and heart, with a healthy obsession for worldbuilding and well-earned angst, hit me up. I'm always open to plotting something new or slipping into a thread if you have space!

Looking forward to writing with you all

Second! I bet you're wondering how to start Role Playing and where to go! I think it's pretty fun to explore the forums, and I highly recommend doing so! Most thread homes, if not all, have a pinned post at the top of them to tell you what goes there! However, the Request Threads are pretty self explanatory; Here's a Link! There's plenty to look through, but you could also build your very own! Tell people what you're all about and get those writing partners! Take your time though; there's never any pressure! If you were looking for an open story you can just jump in straight away, you can find them in Unfinished Tales!​

Next, I've created A Sanctum Tour to help find a lot of cool places on site! There's plenty to do while waiting on replies or to give yourself a break every now and then! But, these are some of my favorites! The first shout out goes to The Sanctum Tavern! Here you can find many a thing! By the Hearth can be found there and has many wonderful discussions; my personal favorite is where everyone talks up their writing partners! Want to see some cute pets or share your own? Pets of the Sanctum is where to go! Feeling up for a challenge? Check out the Monthly Writing Challenge and give it a whirl! And, there's so so so~ much more! Please take the time to explore!​

I think that's everything... Oh! I'm Mio, by the way! Just a friendly changeling and hydration bot! You can find me and several others in Sanctum's Chat Room! If you have any questions, you can always pop in there for help! I will say though, the best people to ask are staff! Green Names are Heralds and Hot Pink Names are Virtuosos which are the best to ask questions! Blue Names are Moderators and Purple Names are the Administrators, which help with tech support and discipline! You can find out which are online via the home page! On PC it'll be to the right of the screen, and on mobile it'll be near the bottom!
Now, get out there and write! May your muses sing for you!​
