MxF Inso's Den of Delights (Male Characters Wanted!)

[Insouciance]

Hello! Excuse the large font, I am old and blind (Not quite there, but my eyesight sucks!)

A brief introduction, my name is Insouciance, you can call me Ino, which is much nicer than my real name so I'm sticking to it. I have been roleplaying since the MSN chat days (My first character as an angel/fairy hybrid who...well, let's just say I've matured quite a bit since those days.) and have been on and off since. I am married with two adult children still living at home and a small zoo. I work full time in a nursing home (6-2:30 EST) and for the most part, during the week when I get off I am relatively free to reply with the exception of Thursdays. I tend to be slower on the weekends because that is the only time my hubby is home :(. I can usually reply daily, or every other day. There will be times I can only reply once a week. I will try to keep people updated when I'm going through a slump.

I am an avid reader with an obsession for Stephen King and any kind of romantasy that catches my eye. I am a sucker for enemies to lovers, but I do enjoy lovey-dovey slice of life from time to time as well. I will list my favorite tropes, although most of my plots are centered around them in some form or another. I enjoy coming up with plot twists and ways to develop both the character, story, and world and I would like to write with someone willing to contribute as well.

I consider myself an advanced writer, although I am always looking to improve as most people are. My posts range from 500-1000+ words. I once did a 5000+ word post where my character suffocated a man with her boobs. When I get into to it, I get into it. This means there will be long posts. If that intimidates you, I'm probably the wrong girl for you.

I do not censor things. My roleplays will have violence, gore, and characters that curse like sailors. There is smut in all of my stories, at least a little bit. However, that is never the focus of any of my roleplays.

I play multiple characters, although my main character will always be a F in a MxF pairing. All secondary characters and pairings can be pretty much anything.

Romance is a must! I don't care if it's a slow burn or fast paced (Just no insta-love. Insta-lust is perfectly acceptable though!) I tend to lose interest without some form of romance.
I prefer realistic FC or art and I always do character sheets for my characters. I don't require details, but I would at least like to know the basics for the characters.
Now onto the good stuff..?

As per the rules and to spare me some ick factors, all characters will be eighteen and look like adults. I've already had my share of cringe listening to everyone cheer that they're putting Prishe in the new FFXIV raid.

[Insouciance]

Medieval Fantasy (High Fantasy)

Spoiler: The Thief of Light

Tropes: Guardian x Thief, Forced Proximity, (One bed and one horse!), Possibly MxMxF
Plot/Smut: 60/40

A veil is meant to shield, to hide, and protect. Behind the veil, the light is dim, the darkness embraced and the shadows reign. They thrive, starving the light from the world and giving birth to new monsters. The world alters into a nightmarish version of itself where the light becomes the enemy and darkness is revered.

One the opposite side of that veil, the light rules supreme. Life is order, function, purpose. Like little worker drones, those who thrive in the light follow the orders of the Grand Master. No one has seen him for centuries, only hearing his demands from the nobles who insists they speak his commands. Lies can only hold a rebellion at bay for so long. The chaos that erupted when it was discovered that the Grand Master was not only dead, but that the magic he used to hold the veil at bay was fading was only overshadowed by the invasion of the shadows shortly afterwards.

Defenseless, thousands succumbed to the shadows, becoming the very monsters they feared their entire lives. Those that managed to escape ran to the ends of the world without a look back. Only a handful of survivors remained near the edges of the world where light and dark remained equal, and the world remained untouched by the veils destruction.

The land never truly heals. The divide remains guarded by those who first settled on its borders, each one swearing an oath to keep the darkness at bay. They spend their days training, fighting, and waiting. Their numbers grow, each new generation bringing new strengths. They become superhuman, both in strength, senses, and lifespan, living hundreds of years beyond their human ancestors. They believe their purpose is to not only protect the world from the encroaching darkness, but to protect the one born that will eventually bring an end to the shadows once and for all.

Meldia is not that person. She will be the first one to admit that she relies on pure luck to steal her way through life. She cannot bend shadows to her will as some believe, but she's spent more than enough of her life hiding in them to know how they work. It helps to lay on the charm from time to time too, but she certainly isn't going to rely on that to get her through. So when a priest from some foreign order she's never heard of claims he's come looking for a shadow who walks in the day, it's easy for her to con him into believing she's the one he's looking for.

Doubting her claim, he challenges her to enter a tomb to steal a ring, believing that not only would he rid the world of a thief, but he would weed out an imposter, the priest begins to depart to the next stop on his journey, only to find Meldia not only waiting for him, but wearing the ring he sent her to fetch. Neither realize that they have both trapped themselves into a situation. He cannot send her away on the small chance that she truly is the one he seeks, and she needs to keep up the pretense long enough to escape her past.

They begin their journey together, knowing the other is lying, but still trying to find some truth behind it. They were brought together for a reason, weren't they? At least that's what he believes.

Meldia's reasons are her own, of course. She's on the run. Why wouldn't she be? Like every good thief, she's robbed more than just a few coins here and there. She's stolen a few husbands, bruised a few hearts, and completely destroyed one life. But who's counting? Obviously the prince she left on his knees, nearly penniless, and in ruin. It's only a matter of time before he and her lies catch up to her. Her only chance is to slip away from the priest and disappear long before that time comes. With his protection, she can get further, but she's still counting her days until she knows she's going to disappoint him.

She has her plan set in motion, however, she does not have the foresight to predict that the priest eventually wins her over. Events force them to work together, bringing them closer. What happens when the time comes for her to either own up to the truth or leave the priest in the dirt without another look back?

Spoiler: Of Trials and Vengeance

Character: Inica Sultera
Tropes: Trials, Guard/Protected
Plot/Smut: 70/30
A man wishes for the power of a demi-god and offers up his child as a sacrifice to the Gods. The king of Gods descends from the skies to meet with the man and accept his sacrifice. However, before the man can kill his daughter, the god kills him. Smitten by the little girl, the king wants to care for her, but knows that she cannot live with the Gods as a mortal. Instead, he finds a family that is willing to take her in and care for her like their own child. As she grows, the God King constantly sends gifts to the girl and eventually enlists the aid of his demi-god son.

The girl grows into a woman and soon she is old enough to marry, however, she has no desire at all to get married. She's decided that she wishes to be a priestess to spend her life praising the god who gave her such a good life. Her adoptive parents reluctantly agree, fearing the god's wrath should they displease their daughter. She sets off on her pilgrimage to become a priestess on her own; or so she believes. Following behind her, the demi-god is still watching over her and protecting her from threats as she sleeps. A wolf here, a beast there is nothing, but when a monster attacks the woman he is forced to come out of hiding to save her.

Under the guise of merely passing by, he offers to escort her through her journey, claiming that they are heading in the same direction. She allows him to tag along, believing that he's on his own mission and will eventually grow bored of her company and head off on his own.

Days pass into their journey and yet another monster goes after the woman and he is forced to protect her again. More and more things begin to happen with the woman constantly being at the center of it. The demi-god eventually learns that the God's mate has learned of the woman and what she means to him, and has decided to kill her to anger her mate. He is given the task of protecting the woman until she becomes a priestess and can no longer be targeted by the Gods.

However, the longer they spend time together, the harder it becomes for the both of them to think about ending their journey. He begins to fall in love and she wishes to learn how to protect herself. When the demi-god fails to get her to the temple in time for the woman to give her oath on the God's holiday, the two are transported to an island along with dozens of other demi-gods and the mortals they have become attached to.

The tournament is intended to eliminate the mortals. The competitors are all given one month to train before the games begin. The last human standing will be gifted the powers of a demi-god and allowed to mate with their selected partner with the blessing of the gods. Not only will the two need to survive the tournament, they also need to survive the goddess' attempts at killing her.

Spoiler: Plot 2

Name: Elemira De'Caplet
Age: 26
Height: 5'2
Weight: 111lbs


History: In a kingdom where only Royalty can possess magical powers, Elemira (Mira) lived in fear of the day she would be discovered. Abandoned at birth and growing up in the streets of the human kingdom of Lizerana, she watched first hand as anyone that showed even a hint of power was carted off never to be seen or heard from again. The few who managed to escape detection ran from the kingdom. Rumors claimed they were stolen by the fae and forced into slavery. Other tales told of monsters from beyond that fed off magic who devoured the beings whole. No matter their fate, Mira learned that if she ever felt a hint of magic coursing through her veins, she would rather take her chances with the monsters.


]Her worst fears came true when she accidently caused the ground beneath her to form a wall protecting her from an older boy who tried to assault her. Knowing the consequences, Elemira did exactly as she swore she would do. Without a second thought she ran into the desert, believing she was as good as dead regardless of what she did. To her shock, she survived a week in the desert and stumbled into an unfamiliar kingdom, one which she had never heard of. It was there that she found her rescuer, or so she believed.


In the kingdom Terav life is a struggle. To survive, everyone must find their niche. For Galavin Torka, he found his talents in being a conman. The second his eyes fell on Mira, he saw nothing but a way to line his pocket. The teenager was pretty enough and after offering her some of his food and protecting her from others who would attempt to use her, Mira was as loyal as a puppy dog. It didn't take long for the two to swindle their way to wealth. Galavin had no qualms about using Mira's innocence and naivety against her. Soon enough, he had the young woman believing that he was in love with her and he was simply waiting until she was old enough to marry her.
And for years they were content. They moved into a large house, with Galavin keeping full control over Mira until he began to question if he should replace her with someone new. However, that was when Elemira proved herself invaluable to him.

In the dead of the night a group of thieves broke into their home, cornering Galavin in a corner with daggers and swords to his throat. Fearing that the man that she loved was in danger, Mira encased the robbers in sand, suffocating them all. Galavin witnessed the event, but rather than reporting Mira to the king for a ransom, the man came up with a far more beneficial use for the young woman.

Gathering up all of their wealth, Galavin moved them away from Terav and off to the kingdom of Farasive. Once they settled into their new kingdom, Galavin told Mira of his plan. Using her abilities, he would pass himself off as a diplomat of a foreign land to seduce the widowed queen. The plan worked perfectly. Galavin married the queen, moving Mira in as his 'concubine'. They could be 'together' and she could continue to use her powers to prove he was worthy of being king. For a year the guise worked perfectly. Mira began to train with her powers, learning all of the ways that she could manipulate the earth around her. She soon discovered that the earth was not all that she could control. She could create gems. She could draw gold from mines without a single tool. Not only did Mira keep him on the throne, but he soon became the richest king out of all the human royals.

For a single year Galavin and Mira had everything they could possibly want. The new king would visit his concubine each night, promising her that soon she would sit on the throne beside him, once his wife was out of the picture. Mira created more and more wealth for the man she loved, buying into his every promise. All she had to do was hold on a little longer.

The peace would not last, however, and Mira began to see through Galavin's lies. Tensions were rising between the humans and the Fae. As the human population grew, they demanded more and more land until soon they were encroaching on Fae territory. The four human kingdoms began to gather together with the understanding that soon enough the Fae would come beating down the walls and demanding their land back. They were correct in their assumption. The Fae sent their diplomats to meet with the human royals to resolve the issue. With Galavin distracted with the strife going on in the world outside, Mira began to feel neglected. The man she loved, the man who she believed saved her from a life on the streets, swore to her that he cared little for his queen. He swore that he was only staying with her because of the threat the Fae posed. In her heart she wanted to believe it was the truth. However, when the announcement came that the queen was with Galavin's child, the woman learned the hard truth. She'd been used. And what was worst, she had managed to get herself trapped by the very man who used her.

Knowing the power she had over Galavin and what would happen once his lack of magic was discovered, Mira decides to flee to the Fae kingdom, hoping that they would grant her refuge. On the night she chooses to run, she is kidnapped by a masked stranger. From that moment on, her fate is unknown and her safety is in the hands of the man who stole her away in the middle of the night.

Spoiler: Rise from Ascension

The Empire of Socrania, a technological paradise in the center of the Socrania continent. Ruled by the Ascended, humans and fae alike watch from large screens inside their ruined cities as the residents of Lamosis, Socrania's capital city, live and thrive while they live in squalor, all while being told that the Ascended are their saviors from the evils that once threatened them.

Before the Ascended, Socrania was home to dozens of kingdoms, each with their own individual problems. Some struggled with famine and drought. Other kingdoms were soon overrun with creatures of the night that began to pluck off the helpless residents one by one until entire villages were wiped out by the bloodthirsty. The Ascended came to them from lands to the west, promising better lives and safety if the citizens of Socrania handed over control to them. There were a few kings who fought until the very end, but it was all for naught. The Ascended took over, allowing the kings to maintain some form of control over their kingdoms, but in the end, everything fell in the hands of these magical superhumans who became their saviors and eventually their overlords.

Eventually the wealthy and powerful gravitated to Lamosis, becoming Ascended themselves. No one was certain of the transformation process. All that was known was that after the transformation, while the newly Ascended looked the same, their personalities took drastic changes. They became cold and distant to everyone, including their own families. Like those who transformed them, they often refused to associate with the humans or fae, and instead kept to themselves.

Socrania changed over this time. The outlands, as everyone outside the capital referred to them, became practical wastelands. Cities became outposts and the threats that the Ascended promised to keep at bay eventually began to return. Human and fae alike flocked to the outposts looking for safety and a way to support their families. Eventually, the Ascended began to send one of their own to rule over the outposts and maintain order. Sometimes they take care of the vampires and other night creatures, but for the most part they simply ensured that Lamosis got what it needed from the citizens.

As one could predict, it was only a matter of time before unrest began to stir among the citizens. Entire outposts would rise up against their Ascended lords, regaining control of their territory. Rather than fight to regain control, the Ascended simply left the outposts to suffer through whatever travesty may befall them. Some managed to survive and even thrive. Under the noses of the Ascended, these outposts would serve as home to a growing rebellion, one determined to drive out every single Ascended from Socrania.

Just as the rebellion was born, so was a symbol for said rebellion in the form of a tiny fae baby. The lone survivor of a night creature attack on a struggling outpost, the baby was taken immediately to Lamosis. The Ascended claimed her as one of their own, swearing that it was their blood in her veins that ensured her survival.

Tovana grew in the spotlight, unaware that she was being broadcast to the entire continent. The Socranians viewed her as the first natural born Ascended, a being that needed to not only be studied, but one that should be turned against her own kind. Believing that somehow she was more powerful because of the nature of her birth, those in the rebellion came up with a plan to not only save Tovana from Lamosis, but to turn her to their cause.

Enter YCs. Members of the rebellion infiltrate Lamosis, quickly working up the ranks until they are in a position to become Tovana's personal guards. The plan was to seduce her, hoping that winning her affections would easily sway her to their fight. However, what they don't know is that Tovana has her own reasons for wishing to be free from the Ascended.

Growing up in Lamosis, Tovana was treated like a sacred being, one who was not to be touched. In the eyes of the public, the fae was not allowed to speak. She was paraded around at the side of the Ascended nobility, her eyes downcast behind a veil of white lace. Only they were aware that Tovana was nothing more than a fae with the good fortune not to be killed along with her family. Not even they know the truth about the attack and that Tovana was chosen for reasons that no one would have ever guessed.

With her past a mystery and the Ascended refusing to give her any answers, Tovana decides it is time to take it upon herself to learn the truth behind the attack that took her family's lives. With no one else to trust, she enlists the help of her two guards who not only jump at the chance to get Tovana out of Lamosis, but to finally show her the horrific truth of life outside the capital.

Tropes: Enemies to Lovers, Kidnapping, Forced Proximity, Fated Mates
Plot/Smut 60/40]
One side of the world is a vast desert, where water is sacred and the sun is an almost constant in the sky. The other side is full of darkness, with snow covering the lands. When the prince of the snow covered lands discovers a way to break the cycle and join the two sides together, he decides to take matters into his own hands by kidnapping the princess of the desert and forcing her to help him in his quest. Unfortunately for him, she's perfectly content with how things are.

Spoiler: The Magic Wielder

Tropes: Fated Mates,
MC grew up isolated from the world beyond the little log cabin she lived in with her aging parents. Considered a miracle child to the now elderly couple, she was raised believing that she was a late life, happy accident to the man and woman who had given up all hopes of having a child of their own. They kept the truth of her arrival a secret, never revealing how they'd found her at their doorstep with a note asking them to care for her. They loved her from the moment they first laid eyes on her and raised her to believe she was their flesh and blood.

They lived happily away from the world, living off the land without a struggle. Everything they needed, the land provided, and what it didn't, they could easily barter and trade for. MC never went without anything, especially the love of her adoptive parents. When a stranger arrives at their door,

YC is a scout for the king (For the sake of this plot I'm leaving it generalized. YC will not be human but a magical race, I prefer something humanoid and not anthro/furry and not a demon) looking for a maiden to become the king's wife. When he lays eyes on MC, he feel his magic pushing out toward her and realizes that there is more to the woman than meets the eye. Rather than report his discovery to the king, he befriends the woman and her wary parents and eventually gains their trust.

The more he visits, the more he sees the treasure he has discovered in MC. She is a magic wielder, not in possession of her own magic, but capable of manipulating the magic of others. The stronger the wielder, the stronger the magic becomes and the more likely it is that the wielder can turn the magic against the one who holds it.

What they aren't aware of is that he is waiting for the perfect opportunity to take her away for his own purpose. There is an uprising in his homelands, and he plans to use the woman for his gain. However, he can't deny there is more to her special ability that draws his magic to her and it isn't long until he begins searching for a way to sway her into helping him without destroying the trust he's built.

Spoiler: The Pact

Character: Jessica Logan
Tropes: Brother's Best Friend, Billionaire Romance, Mafia, Hurt/Comfort, Age Gap (5-7 Years)
Smut/Plot Ratio: 70/30
No one would have ever predicted that a hit and run accident would lead to a chain of events that eventually land Jessica Logan under the protection of her brother's best friend. At twelve years old, while she was in the ER getting her leg put in a cast while her parents held a frantic discussion outside her room, Damon felt an overwhelming need to protect his little sister at all costs, even if he couldn't be the one to do it. Turning to the only person he trusted, the teenager begged his best friend to promise him that should anything ever happen, he would step in to look after Jessica. Of course as teenagers, neither boy thought much about it. They were both young, and it wasn't as if Damon had any intentions of making the same mistakes as his father. Neither of the could have predicted that in six years, his best friend would have to step up and follow through with the vow that he made.

At the age of 18, Jessica had it made. She grew up with loving parents and a doting older brother, in a good neighborhood. With her father's income, the family never wanted for anything. They went on vacations around the world, drove new cars, and never had to worry about not having money in the bank. Unfortunately for Jessica, that lifestyle came with a price that she couldn't have predicted. Damon only suspected how deep their father was in, but no one knew the full truth until the day the family was murdered and Jessica was left alone and homeless.

It was during her last hoorah before entering the world of higher education, Jessica received the most devastating news of her life. Everyone in her family was dead and her childhood home was nothing but ashes. She had no one to turn to and no place to go. In the matter of a few minutes her life went from picture perfect to a complete nightmare. She returns home from her trip to learn that things are even worse than she fears. Not only has she lost everyone and everything, but now the police are hoping to use her as bait to lure out the person responsible for the Logan family's murders, and ultimately the mafia family connected to them.

However, before the cops have a chance to use the unsuspecting young woman, she is confronted by the only person her brother trusted with her safety. Born with the resources to help keep Jessica safe and determined to fulfill his promise to Damon, he gives Jessica an ultimatum. Come with him and possibly live to have a life, or put her faith in the police that could care less if she lived or died as long as they catch their killer

Spoiler: Beautifully Broken

Character: Victoria Neisin
Tropes: Brother's Best Friend, Hurt/Comfort, Age Gap (5-7 Years) Billionaire Romance
Smut/Plot 70/30
Trauma can be as small as an accident causing a broken bone or as big as a life shattering event. For Tori, trauma began from her first memory when her father backhanded her mother for allowing Tori to make a mess of a dress prior to a photo shoot for the town's newspaper. Things spiraled out of control, but Tori always had her brother to help her through it. A victim himself, the older sibling smiled through his pain and distracted Tori away from the worst of their father's offenses. Yet, he could not spend his time protecting himself and his sister on his own without any support. He needed to escape his father's reach and the only way to do that was to commit himself to his country.

Victor knew that in order to save his mother and sister, he needed to be able to support himself first. Leaving behind a ten year old Tori was difficult, but managed all the same. During his enlistment, Victor rose through the ranks as quickly as he could and found a kindred spirit with a fellow sailor. The two became fast friends, both intending to spend their lives away from the nightmarish childhoods and away from a society that allowed their abuses to continue all because their abusers were rich, powerful men. His friend was the first to be free of his enlistment and set off to build a place where the two men could leave in peace with space for Victor's family. Still obligated to give another two years of his life, Victor thought he still had enough time to save his mother and Tori from his monster of a father. However, his father had other plans.

Victor received the call about the murder of his mother and his sister's traumatized state almost the moment it happened. Taking leave, he rushed to the hospital where Tori remained in the psychiatric unit, with dozens of doctors and psychiatrists all trying to find out what was going on with the girl. Her lack of communication was considered normal for the experience she endured, but as time ticked away, everyone became increasingly worried when Tori refused to speak. Still obligated to the Navy, Victor left his sister in the care of therapists, doctors, and a long list of caretakers to tend to the girl's every need while she endured the lengthy trial that would eventually put their father away for the rest of his life. All things were neatly tied up with the end of Victor's enlistment and the guilty verdict that sealed their father's fate.

No longer bound to the town that allowed such atrocities to happen, Victor takes charge of Victoria's immediate future. With hopes that moving away from the place where their nightmares began, he moves Tori to the ranch where he and his friend planned to spend their days, hoping that the new beginning and a safe space would help her overcome her trauma.

At first, living with the eighteen year old it like living with a ghost for his best friend. Victor was used to his sister's wide, haunted eyes and eerie silence, along with the hours of tinkling piano keys. Eventually, as the young woman begins to come out of her shell, he finds himself wanting to protect her as much as her own brother.

Spoiler: Taking Chances

A drunken one night stand. That's all it was. Celebrating her older brother's 30th birthday, Lexi got a little too carried away with her celebrating. After all, she had quite a bit to celebrate. She was on track to become the head chef at a new restaurant and she'd just gotten the green light to move into her dream apartment after waiting on for over a year. When everyone else went to bed, Lexi was still going, along with her brother's best friend who was knocking them back along with her, mourning the loss of his relationship. At some point things got heated and ended up with Lexi's walk of shame from his bed the next morning before her brother could wake up to discover them.

All Lexi wanted to do was forget the whole thing happened. However, life seemed to have different plans for her. Just as the restaurant was about to open, her boss called a meeting to introduce the staff to his new business partner. To her dismay, her new boss also happens to be the one man on the planet she's been trying to hide from. Of course there's her apartment, right? If only she was that lucky. Moving in on the same day that she is, Lexi discovers that her brother's best friend was going to be her neighbor across the hall. There wasn't an area of her life that wasn't invaded by the man she was eager to avoid at all costs.

On the other side of the coin, he's been looking for a sign. After the end of his eight year relationship when he caught his ex cheating on him, He drowns his sorrows at his best friend's birthday when Lexi enters the picture. The woman is everything he didn't look for in a woman. She was bubbly and optimistic and everything that his ex wasn't. Sure, he'd known how she was growing up, but seeing it after his heartbreak woke something in him.

Like Lexi, he was just as surprised when he went to his new restaurant to find her face in the group, and even more startled to realize that she was the chef his business partner had been boasting about. Only a few days later as he was lugging a box of his belongings from the elevator, he was startled to see Lexi stepping out of the apartment across from him. To him, this was a sign. Lexi might have been going out of her way to steer clear of him, but life was putting them in each other's way constantly. Why not discover why?

Despite their age difference, the siblings were inseparable until Brianna eventually heads off to college. She stays in touch with her family and remains close to her brother. However, without her around, his best friend only hears about Brianna from her brother and only in passing. He almost forgets about how much he adored her when she was young, how he viewed her as his own little sister until she left. He expects those feelings to remain the same when his best friend shares that he's getting married and that Brianna will be returning home for the wedding.

Just as she had when she was younger, Brianna has her brother's best friend wrapped around her pinky the moment they reconnect. Now all grown up, he can't see her as the little girl he would spin around in circles to make her giggle. She's a full grown woman and attraction hits him like a train the moment he lays eyes on her again. They spend the entire week of her visit getting reacquainted and by the time she is ready to return to her life, he's ready to move heaven and earth to be near her.[

For her, he's just her brother's best friend looking out for her, without a single clue that he is slowly working his way into every aspect of her life until she can't escape him.
