❝ Searching for... ❞
❝ Searching for... ❞
It's been a long time since I've used this site. Admittedly, I forgot it existed until I was reminded of it as I search for a site to post my craving. To reintroduce myself, my name is zombiequeenkai. Call me however you like.
I'm itching to do an otome isekai style roleplay. Trope-y, shoujo, romance, and drama. Lots of duke's daughters, overbearing crown prices, returning generals from war, and of course, plenty of isekai. I'm sure some of you are wondering what otome isekai is and how is it different from the common isekai trope people know of.
In simplest of definitions, otome isekai are just isekai stories targeted to female audiences. What separates them? Typical isekais are power fantasies while otome isekais tend to be romance fantasies. I'm talking Harlequin, Gothic, or generic romances. Otome isekais have three types of isekais: common isekai, transmigration, and reincarnation/regressor. The common isekai method is the one that everyone knows: you wake up one morning and you're in another world. Transmigration is waking up in a body that isn't your own. Reincarnation/regressor is either waking up as a baby or a child. The key thing to note is that the worlds these ladies wake up in are in a recognizable "franchise" they know and absolutely destroy the OG plot to change their destiny. Either an otome game, video game, a manga, webtoon, novel, or anime. Of course, a piece of media that was marketed to women. I want to quickly say that I am not looking for a fandom roleplay- I want to make up a fictional shoujo story that's being used.
A good example of what I mean is the anime, My Next Life as a Villainess.

I know this really niche and specific topic but I thought I could try. As much as I like adventure/fantasy, that stuff isn't quite the genre I'm looking for. Sure, an element of it is nice but this is more of a drama/romance thing with political intrigue and possibly comedy in enjoying and making fun of tropes. I am very open to brainstorming but I also have a plot ready to go called Villainess's Mutiny. What is a villainess in this context? Not the DC/Marvel kind. Villainesses are the love rivals or the antagonist of a happy couple's relationship. The witch that curses the princess, the jealous ex-girlfriend, the school's bully, etc.
Welp! This is all I have to say on the subject, at the moment. I'll leave things here and drop the information that people look for!

⊱ ────── {.⋅ Rules & Standards ⋅.} ────── ⊰
- No roles switching: When it comes to my plots, they are rigid since they're tailored specifically for my OCs.
- Quantity and Quality: I am in the camp that quantity reflects the quality and vice versa. Of course, I'm not some writing tyrant to demand long responses for every single reply. That's just insane and draining on one muse. I also understand writer's block occurs and that in some replies, a point simply ends and it's time to move on. But it isn't nice that I wasted several hours on a solid post that's 1k+ long, for example, just to receive just some short, three sentences response to x amount of dialogue/plot prompted in my post. I expect my partners to more or less match the amount of effort and length I give them. On average I give about 1000-word responses, though I can write up to 2k-3k if the post is good. The only exception I give on post lengths are those who take on a 'GM' role in a roleplay; since the world and results are reflected on my character's actions.
- On the spot brainstorming: Do not put me on the spot for brainstorming an entirely new plot out of the blue. Everything you see in this thread is everything I have to show and present. My pairings and themes are there to prompt YOU to come up with something new if none of my plots are appealing. I don't mind working together to come up with what we both like but don't expect me to shoulder the conversation and create something for you. This point especially goes for expecting me to make new characters to use instead of my OCs. I'm not inclined to make any new characters for some specific roleplay when I know I'm going to get ghosted later and now have a useless character… no offense to anyone.
- Ghosting: Despite sounding bitter about it, I don't mind getting ghosted. I understand. Things happen, pressure from life, and just general disinterest. I will check in but after seeing radio silence, I won't cling on. But I would appreciate some kind of warning if you wish to end our roleplay for closure. This is mostly an etiquette thing.
- Smut: I like it. I'm pretty sure you like it too. But I'm always been more of a story gal over smut. I do want to include it when it comes to it but I don't like revolving a plot all about it. Ratios are hard since it depends on the story being told and what's going on. Either way, this is something to be discussed.

Writing sample and opening post to A Villainess's Mutiny
Every story has a beginning.
Some stories start traditionally, that critical event that kicked off everything in motion or the hero's humble beginnings. Sometimes they start in the middle, at the heart of all the action or close to the climax… medias res as those snobbish literature majors like to state. Flexing their knowledge on a vocabulary word that everyone knew if they ever took eighth grade English. Other times, they start with the end, flashing a conclusion to make the readers wonder, "how did this happen?" Slow burn. Fast-paced. Shocking. Humorous. Beginnings come in a million different shapes and flavors.
Kai's story started with her face becoming well acquainted with an oncoming semi.
Depending on how she looked at things, this event could be her beginning, middle, or end. This could be the start of a compelling story about how the hero managed to overcome her disadvantages to lead a fulfilling life. Perhaps this was the climax where Kai learns about the beauty of life and turn a new leaf. As for the end… she didn't even want to humor the thought. With all these possible paths opened before Kai, thanks to her misfortunate accident, why is it that her trigger event happened to be an overly dramatic Isekai opening?
Thinking back on it, Kai wondered how this all even came to be and how she ended up like a sack of flesh at the side of the road. While Kai would always jokingly say that she would barter to god or satan to sell her soul for some excitement in her life, she didn't actually mean it. Her morning started out normal enough. Wake up. Eat breakfast. Freshen up. Pack up and head out to catch the bus. All Kai needed to do was cross the street, and that was it! And no, don't think that she stupidly crossed the street to catch a bus. She might be considered a "young and wild" college student that the media liked to portray, but Kai very much valued her life and respect traffic laws to a certain degree. No… while feeling slightly light-headed from lack of sleep, someone pushed her onto the road.
People say that when accidents happened, the world slowed down, and your life flashed before your eyes. Not for Kai, though. One moment she was on the sidewalk, next she was making out with the front bumper of a freightliner. If Kai could concentrate on anything but the excruciating pain of getting hit by a truck, she would probably be thinking how fucking ironic it was that she got hit by truck-san, the trope she made fun of for months. It looked like god had her sense of humor as well.
According to studies, it takes the police about nine minutes to reach the scene of an accident. Unfortunately for Kai, she was only able to hold on for three minutes. It was the most painful and scariest experience in her life. It wasn't the way she wanted to go, yet her soul wavered between life and death… just to be snatched. When her eyes closed for one last time, they opened for the first time.
People wondered what happened once you die, Kai here got to experience it for herself. Opening her eyes, she expected the void, yet she found herself in some sort of limbo. It was blindingly bright, and her brain couldn't process what she was seeing. Yet remarkably, she wasn't alone. Well… from first glance, it seemed as if she was alone. There were only herself and the white void. But Kai had a distinct feeling that she wasn't alone. Call it her sixth sense or intuition, but Kai had the feeling that she was being held or being kept in place. She looked around for what it was that made her feel uneasy. Nothing could be seen, but it was definitely heard.
"You can tell I'm here?" a voice spoke, seemingly coming from all directions. It was an unnerving experience, but Kai kept a level head.
"Not exactly… The experience was way too surreal not to question if there's some deity watching me," Kai said, choosing her words carefully as she tries to form the thoughts. It was a bit hard, though, feeling rather sluggish and muddy headed. "That being said, what situation are we looking at for my soul. Are we looking at a judgment type scenario where my soul is on trial or something a little more isekai?" Kai asked, not one for small talk. "Considering you're so kind in showing yourself."
"Funny little toy… I was planning on making myself known once you settled down from a panic. Still, I suppose this works out well in my favor," the voice spoke, "It's a… as you put it, an isekai direction but not what you think." Kai couldn't help but roll her eyes slightly that the voice expected her to panic. She was terrified, of course. But it's just a waste of time and breath to go through the motions.
"So, either a Korean or Chinese style isekai then," Kai said, taking the words of the voice literally. She was picturing Japanese style isekais plot lines but seeing how they said it wasn't what she was thinking, she considered it a fact.
"Is there a difference?" the voice said, seemingly annoyed by the comment but pushed through to get to the point. "Let's just skip this nonsense, I can tell we're on the same page… I am not a god. I am not satan. But you can consider me both at the same time," the voice explained, "I am a game master. GM for short… and I am running a… campaign of sorts. A story to entertain the masses. But to do that, I need characters."
"Cue me?" Kai said, picking up the direction of the scheme pretty quickly.
"Exactly. You, unfortunate soul, have met a tragic fate. Dead yet alive… a coma as you know it. I plucked your flickering soul and placed it here in my world. The situation is simple, play my game and win: you have a second chance at life. Decline or lose, you die," GM explained. Kai began to stroke an imaginary beard as she listened to the wager. But there was hardly anything to consider. A one in three chance in surviving didn't sound good. But if you were to die trying and not trying, might as well take the risk.
"Rules?" Kai asked, showing her interest.
"A roleplay game. I give you a role, and you must act it out through the story. Based on your performance, I reward you points. Points can be used to aid you in the game, and points can buy your second life," the GM told Kai.
"Haha… so it's Chinese style isekai then," Kai muttered to herself, seemingly pleased that her guess was on point. Hearing it now, she wasn't delusional enough to believe that she had the game in the bag. But she was surprisingly excited at the prospect of playing such a game. Finally, a break from her boring lifestyle. "Why do I get the feeling I have the role of a villainess?"
"… Lucky guess," the GM said after pausing for a long moment. Hearing that caused Kai to laugh.
"For a game master, it seems like you designed a rather cliched plot for people to watch. How quaint… next, I'm going to learn that the setting is a fantasy with princesses and such," Kai said, with an amused sigh. She was tossing out a guess in the dark only to receive a positive confirmation by the lack of rebuttal from the GM. At that, Kai snickers slightly, but she doesn't push it. "So, all I need to do is make an interesting story by acting like a villainess and earn points… simple enough. I'll join. Not like I have anything better to do considering the repercussions for refusing."
"Good. I'll start integrating your soul then," The GM said.
"With all things considered… It's safe to assume that the other major characters are in the same situation as me?" Kai asked one final question before going. There was a pause from the GM, and it seems like he wasn't going to answer.
"Who knows?" they simply responded, not giving a positive or negative. It annoyed Kai to no end, but she decided to leave it be and consider it as another win to her. She probably guessed correctly again, but the GM didn't want to admit it. "You act like you're used to all this. Not really bother… why?" the GM suddenly asked Kai. It was a surprise to hear them to be somewhat proactive in a conversation, she pinned the GM to be a single-minded person. A wrong calculation but not a big deal… especially for a question, she knew the answer to.
"Hm… who knows?" Kai said, a sweet smile on her face as she repeats back the same words the GM said to her. Petty, but she was to be the villainess for his story. If the GM was going to say anything, Kai never got the chance as she began waking up in her new form.

To tell the truth, I don't particularly like explaining my characters since it doesn't give a satisfying image of them. I find the most fun in roleplay is expressing them through the story. If there's something you really want to know, just ask and I'll talk. The character I plan to use for this:

After meeting an unfortunate accident, Kai wakes up in a strange and empty dimension. She died! Or rather… she's in a coma. Having her soul trapped in a 'game' of sorts, a mysterious figure called "the gamemaster" (or GM for short) gives Kai the offer of a lifetime. Participate in the GM's game as a 'character' for a chance to come back to life or refuse and die. The rules were simple: follow your role, and if your performance was entertaining, you earn points. These points are used to purchase cheats or items through the System (video game style), and of course, you use points to buy your second chance. The option Kai chose was a no brainer, but she was given the unlucky role as the 'villainess'! A role that can earn easy points at the beginning of the story but ultimately lose everything once the heroine takes the spotlight.
What rotten luck! Out of all the roles!
Thinking it through logically, Kai figured the role fit herself well, and she wouldn't miss the chance in knocking those braindead heroines down a peg! Petty women like Kai always get dealt a bad hand in the end. Time to show that not every story is a fairytale and that wickedness wins (sometimes)!
(Info: So, this is a very flexible plot. Anything really goes since I don't have my heart set in a specific story arc. It could be a reverse harem story where Kai wins over the heroine's love targets. It could be more of an otome RPG for a monster boy direction. It could be a 1x1 idea where your character is in the same position as Kai, either trying to score points or maybe someone who lost and your 'role' consumed you… becoming the GM's characters. Or one of GM's NPCs who gain sentience. Really, I'm open to a lot with this.)
