Thread: Letexta's Compendium of Characters

So, the meat of the thread. Plots. I've scattered some images in here and there that have inspired me to do with these plots, but please don't think that they are fully decided face claims or anything like that. While not fully NSFW, I'd still be cautious about opening this, as they may in the future be rather sexual. If you're at work, what are you doing on E anyway? Go do some work, lazy! UNGENTLEMANLY WARFARE Pairing MxF, FxF Looking for Someone to work on the concept with. Themes WWIIModern. Intrigue. Spies. Potentially dark. The Special Operations Executive. The Baker Street Irregulars. The Ministry for Ungentlemanly Warfare. All names of the British world war two era organisation charged with all manner of irregular warfare. From Europe, to north Africa, to the far east, operatives from the SOE were charged with organising and training resistance groups, sabotage, spreading propaganda, assassination, breaking out prisoners, stirring civil disobedience, and all manner of other nefarious activities. Recruited from every walk of life, from career military officers, to those from the criminal underworld, to those who had escaped a country now under Nazi occupation. Men and Women. Rich and poor. Anyone with expertise that they could use, regardless of social conventions. So, the story? This, more so than some of the others here is going to need some collaboration. Heck, Im not even fully set on WWII as a setting, we could just as easily go with an alternate history setting, where that sort of war is happening in a modern setting. We could follow SOE officers, or an officer and a local, a resistance fighter perhaps. Perhaps an officer discovered, and finding themselves in the dark, grim surroundings of a prison or concentration camp. A lot to work on, I know. But this basis of following those involved with irregular, or guerilla warfare, in a WWII, or more modern setting has really caught my interest. THE ANARCHIST Pairing MxF, FxF Looking for Someone to work on the concept with. Themes Modern, Love, Conflict, Contrasts Shes a wild card. At home in the middle of a riot, spraying a wall, smashing a store front, launching a petrol bomb, or torching a car. A left wing anarchist with an unstable, abrasive personality, whos willing to go as far as she needs to to try and reach her political goals. Theres all sorts of potential stories here. Does she fall in love? Does someone force her to submit? Does she catch the eye of someone that symbolises everything she hates, a government official, or big shot business man? Or maybe she meets someone who shares her beliefs. We could explore the political side of a group that share this type of belief, as they plan and carry out attacks or operations. We could follow someone infiltrating this group by trying to get close to her. Needs a lot of work. But if you think you might be interested in writing opposite a character like that, and want to develop a story around her, then let me know. CONTRASTS Pairing MxF Looking for The traditional man Themes Modern, Love, Conflict, Contrasts Theres her. A soldier. A woman, but far from the traditional sort. Brash, and tomboyish, perhaps even some kind of special forces esque unit. And then theres him. The archetype of tradition. Maybe a career military officer, maybe a reporter or government official of sort. Older than her. Married. Settled. And all that is about to be flipped upside down, because hes about to meet her . A reporter or politician that meets her while hes in a war zone, a senior officer that has to try and work with her. Heck, maybe the pair even meet somehow while shes off duty, and then again when shes on. She blows his mind. Whether the feeling is mutual, and this is a case of two way love at first sight, or whether its more of a slow burner, Im seeing this as being a romance. I want to explore the motivations of the character, and what it is about this completely un-traditional girl it is that can draw this traditional man away from his traditional wife, traditional home, and maybe even traditional children. Lets explore the characters personalities, and emotions, and lets explore their relationship as it builds. The issues and conflict that it causes, as much as the love between them. OLYMPICS Pairing MxF, FxF Looking for The seasoned athelte Themes Sport, fit people, conflict, potential love, potential darker kinks, modern. 450,000. Thats how many condoms they say were given out during the Rio Olympics. Maybe exploring some of what happens behind closed doors in the Olympic village might be fun? Now, this doesnt have to be a smut fest by any means. But exploring the mindset and activities of two athletes at the very top of their games, and how they might go about interacting could be interesting. The primary pairing I was thinking about was two athletes who are competing for the same nation, but in very different sports. YC in something traditional, perhaps even a little elitist. Fencing, sailing, equestrian even. Heshe is also someone very experienced, perhaps this is their second or third games, and maybe they are even some kind of captain within the team. MC on the other hand, is about as far as its possible to get. Someone young, perhaps within one of the newer sports to the games. Climbing perhaps, or BMX biking, or even Rugby Sevens. There are all sorts of options, but in the end, exploring the dynamic between these two characters could be very interesting. There might well be conflict there. And there might well be something more DGSE Pairing MxF, FxF Looking for Whoever is opposite Nina Themes Intrigue, action, spies, romance, potential darker kinks, military, modern. The Directorate-General for External Security. DGSE. Frances answer to the CIA. All around the world, DGSE personnel can be found, with their fingers in just as many pies as youd imagine from a covert government agency. Black sites? Arms dealing? Training guerrillas? All of it goes on behind closed doors. But of course, theres the more mundane postings as well. This is where MC comes in. Nina Marchand. Stationed at a French embassy in an unstable part of the world. The DGSE action division personnel posted there provide operatives for the various missions that could be carried out in that part of the world. Everything from plain clothes security for the embassy, to testing the security of power plants or military facilities, to intelligence gathering, to kidnapping, to propping up a dictatorship. This is where we can pick up a story. A bit of an open plot, I know, but there are so many ways to take it. YC could be anyone, from a DGSE target, to a civilian worker at the embassy, to a private military contractor, being hired by the government for some dirty work and working with the DGSE. Heck, he could even be another DGSE agent, or even from the CIA or other organisation. INPATIENT Pairing MxF, FxF Looking for A doctor or nurse of some sort. Or anther patient. Themes Medical, drug abuse, mental issues, potential eating disorders, A girl with a problem. Eating disorder perhaps, or maybe drug or alcohol dependence. Perhaps it's her loving, yet desperate parents who convince her to try it. Perhaps she's sentenced there by a court order. Perhaps she self refers. However it is she get there, and whatever the reason behind it, Clara ends up sitting in the hospital waiting room, waiting for her initial assessment. An inpatient clinic of some sort is what she's waiting for. Whether you want to explore something dark, with her being admitted to a psychiatric unit of some kind with traditional views of curing whatever it is her issue is. Or go for the other extreme, and have her admitted to something far more new age. If you've ever seen the movie 'To the Bone', you might have a bit of an idea what it is I'm talking about, something with a younger, more open to new ideas doctor who thinks a more gentle approach might be the way forwards. This could go in a variety of directions. Dark themes of asylum style 'treatment', tough nights fighting through withdrawal symptoms, or a softer, more gentle approach where we can delve into characters in more detail. THE BUSKER Pairing MxF, FxF Looking for Whoever propositions the roamer. Themes Music, romance, modern, roaming, drug use, slice of life. Shes a roamer. A runaway. Not one for settling down. Travelling around the country, or even moving around the world, living out of a backpack with her beaten up old guitar strapped haphazardly to the side, paying her way by busking on street corners, or even the occasional pub show if she stays in a town for more than a single night. The girl is a talented musician, likely enough to make it big, if she were willing to settle down and start building a reputation up. The character I envisage in this is someone very free spirited, and almost hippie like. Attractive, and would be even more so if she put on some clothes that fit, sorted out her birds nest of hair. Heck, sometimes she would be a heck of a lot more attractive if she took a shower. So far from a perfect character. Anyway, Im envisaging something a little lighter with this character. She comes across someone who sees through the dirty, messy, exterior. Sees her beauty, and the beauty in the music she makes. Someone with the funds and motivation to ignore her fiery attitude, the smell of weed hanging around in the air around her, and to make her an offer. Maybe a record deal. Maybe a warm bed that night. From there, it could develop into something of a romance. BARBARY PIRATES Pairing MxF, FxF Looking for Pirates! Or slavery. Or buyers. Themes Historical, contrasts, slavery, things I watched a youtube video about and am now craving. A little known aspect of history. Early than, and around the same time as the classic imagery of piracy in the new world and Caribbean, there was also piracy alive and kicking in the Mediterranean, and even up into the northern Atlantic. This piracy came from various sources around North Africa, Turkey, the Ottomans. This developed into the so called Barbary Corsairs. There were raids, attacks on coast lines, shipping routes, even organised wars between these corsairs and the navies of various Christian nations. It's a very interesting period of history. Of course, there was another prize beyond the riches and treasure that could be looted in these raids by Barbary Pirates. There was also a thriving trade in slaves. From galley slaves, to workers, to the so called 'fate worse than death' that was being captured by slavers as a young attractive white girl, and even some boys. Sexual slavery was very much a thing in that part of the world. A story in this setting could be very interesting. A captured slave girl and her new buyer in a world totally unfamiliar with her? Or maybe a badass woman pirate? All sorts of options here. THE FACILITY Pairing MxF, FxF Looking for Other recruits or trainers. Themes Intrigue, action, spies, youth, potential darker kinks, military, modern. This is another plot based roughly around a military context, although with a little more embellishment to it. This would be a modern setting, and as in real life, there are some bad people around. And there are some that are simply caught up with a bad crowd. Either of these type's of people can find themselves being drawn into spirals of crime, from petty, antisocial activities, up to more serious offenses. Often, this can come to a head with a spell in a Juvenile prison, after one two many incidents. This would be where our story could come in. These young offenders 16 plus, as per the site rules can be offered an alternative. Serve their sentences, and face what is, in all likelihood, going to be the start of a life of going in and out of prison. Or, spend a minimum of three years commissioned in a new unit of insert country we set this in here 's army. The idea of the unit would be to take these youngsters, and use some of the talents that they could have found in their rough upbringings, or the lives of crime they had been starting to live. Take their toughness, and even their anger, and channel it into a military setting. Obviously, the discipline within the military might be hard to adjust to, and there will be a period where a new intake of juvenile delinquents will find themselves being broken in. This is where we can pick up the story. Maybe both of our characters are new recruits? Or maybe a recruit and a trainer? The training itself has the potential to become quite a dark, or sexualised, set up, or be more traditional. If you're interested we can go down the dark route. Being trained to resist torture or interrogation, being left holding stress positions in nothing but their underwear, brutal fitness training. It could be really fun to explore this kind of setting, going through the training of these young men and women, and some of the experiences they might go through. This needs a bit more in the way of development, but drop me a message if you're interested in starting up something along these lines. ZOE Pairing MxF, FxF Looking for A congressman. Or someone else opposite Zoe. Themes Intrigue, journalism, contrasts, potential darker kinks, modern, headstrong women. I've recently started watching 'House of Cards' on Netflix, and the first few episodes have really hooked me in. Especially Zoe as a character. So, this is inspired by her. I might even be interested in a fandom here. Zoe is a journalist. She's got a job at a good paper, in a good city, but the work she's being given is below her level. Minor things, reporting on the new park, covering lost dogs. She knows that she's better than that, and often butts head with her boss, and the people around her over it. That changes when a photo of a congressman admiring her gets out. It becomes Zoe's way in, and he becomes a source for her, slinging her into the big time, and onto the front pages. Maybe we could explore the relationship between those two? Or maybe simply use the story as very loose inspiration, and simply come up with something involving a moody, headstrong young journalist? MIGRATION Pairing MxF, FxF Looking for Someone opposite a refugee Themes Modern, alternative modern, refugees, vulnerability, slavery. The migrant crisis. Either realistic, as it is happening right now, or in a more alternate setting, there is a huge refugee crisis occurring. People are on the move, desperate to escape the conflict in their home land. Eventually, they reach a border. Whether its political, and they are stopped by fences and guns, or natural, and they are stopped by a sea or impassable mountain range, the refugees are left stranded in limbo. NGOs and governments do what they can, setting up camps, and trying to provide food. But these refugees are still vulnerable. Crime is rife among these communities, if they can even be called that. Everything from theft, to rape, to slavery. This could be where we pick up the story. A slaver and a young, vulnerable refugee? A thief and local police or military personnel? Or maybe a civilian aid worker, and exploring their budding relationship with a refugee? Again, all sorts of directions this kind of setting could be taken in.
