Welcome to the TF2RPC Directory
This is an attempt to gather the active roleplayers in the community so that we can find each other a little easier! The idea is to have three separate pages: one for canon muses, one for ocs, and one for blogs that have a verse for tf2 but are not primarily a team fortress 2 blog. To be added to the list:
reblog and tag if you’re an oc/canon/verse blog
canon blogs please include which character you rp
ocs please include your class (if 10th class, tag ‘10th’ please)
multimuses please indicate so in the tags
additional questions can be sent to this blog
Masterlists are here: CANON | OCs | VERSE

❝ Did I just say what I thought I said? ❞
❝ I’m playing with fire, with something I don’t understand.. ❞
❝ What made him think that he could rejoin the world of daylight? ❞
❝ Most of all, he was tired of being alone. ❞
❝ Right now everything looks so strange to me, as if I don’t belong here. ❞
❝ And the worst thing is that I feel there’s somewhere I do belong, but I just can’t find it. ❞
❝ Is it working? Being in her world? Does it make you feel alive? ❞
❝ Perhaps she’ll find that real darkness is more to her taste than feeble twilight. ❞
❝ I swear she will never know my secret. She will never have to give up the sunlight because of me. ❞
❝ There would never be a place where he could belong completely, where he could truly be himself. ❞
❝ In grace and beauty and sheer fascination, they were alike. ❞
❝ Evil will never find peace. It may triumph, but it will never find peace. ❞
❝ But there was one memory he must truly not disturb. ❞
❝ What more do you want? What can you do with two that you can’t do with one? ❞

❝ I am as strong as you are, brother, and I fear nothing in the shadows or the sunlight either. ❞
❝ Do you love her enough to give up that as well? ❞
❝ It doesn’t matter if you can say it right now. I’ll say it for both of us. ❞
❝ Interesting things happen in the dark … sometimes. ❞
❝ I believe it. Whatever happens, we’ll be together. ❞
❝ I only did it because I wanted to be close to you. Brothers should be close. ❞
❝ You’re distressed, I suppose, because of my little excursion into your territory. ❞
❝ I never lie about anything important. Or do I mean unimportant? ❞
❝ Anyway, your beauteous damsel nearly swooned into my arms. ❞
❝ And if you try to stop me from taking her, I will kill you. ❞
❝ I could feel your anger from the other side of town. ❞
❝ I can waken things inside you that have been sleeping all your life. ❞
❝ You’re strong enough to live in the dark, to glory in it. ❞
❝ You can become a queen of the shadows. Why not take that Power, [NAME]? ❞
❝ I hate you. You disgust me. And there’s nothing you can do to me, not any more. ❞
❝ And you can’t intimidate me, [NAME], or haven’t you noticed? ❞
❝ There might be danger—of a kind you don’t know about. ❞
❝ Mind if I have a bite? ❞
❝ The more you belong to the dark, the more the rules of the dark bind you. ❞
❝ And you and I are enemies, [NAME]. We can never be anything else. ❞
❝ I guess you don’t have a way with animals. ❞
❝ You should have killed both of us at once. ❞
❝ What more can you do to me? Killing me would be a mercy. ❞
❝ I ran out of mercy for you a century ago. ❞
❝ Would you rather that she were really dead? ❞
❝ Do you regret it when you eat too much steak? Feel sorry for the cow? ❞
❝ And you’re not even sorry? You don’t even regret it. ❞
❝ No one is what they appear. ❞
❝ Do you want me to imitate a violin? ❞
❝ I can’t go down there. They think I’m dead! ❞
❝ If you’re looking for evil, you don’t have to look far. ❞
❝ Brothers should share things, you know. ❞
❝ You don’t get to be a vampire by yourself. Somebody has to make you one. ❞
❝ I told you nobody that gorgeous could be a psycho killer. ❞
❝ I think you’re getting Stephen King mixed up with Lewis Carrol. ❞
❝ Little brother, the world is full of what you call ‘wrong,’ ❞
❝ There’s no excuse for giving up just because it looks like we’re going to lose. ❞
❝ I wonder what you get for that these days? ❞
❝ You’re not as different from us as you want us to think. ❞
❝ Oh, it’s all too much to explain and you wouldn’t believe it anyway. ❞
❝ Why do people always assume that volume will succeed when logic won’t? ❞
❝ No one is alone. Not really. No one is ever alone. ❞
❝ Will you remember? For me? Just that … I loved once—just once, really, in my whole life. ❞
❝ If you touch her again, you vicious bitch, I will rip out your throat. ❞
❝ I see you! You wait right there—I’m coming to kill you! ❞
❝ I’ve heard of mixed signals, but I’ve never seen them. ❞
❝ They hurt you, didn’t they, little redbird? I saw … I saw your face. ❞
❝ If you are happy, that’s all I want, after that prison. I can live; I can die . . peacefully. ❞
❝ It won’t make any difference in the end—if you know what I mean? ❞
❝ You were holding me, but you completely forgot my existence … ❞
❝ I’m blind, deaf, my senses are haywire-and you laugh! ❞
❝ I know what you see in the dark. You’re the bravest person I know. ❞
❝ You say I always make you say it first, so I’ll confound you. I love you, [NAME]. ❞
❝ Do you ever sort of slip and get that feeling like, ‘Oh, whoops, there goes the whole universe’? ❞

It had been a week since he’d been once again sent as a sacrifice to the great dragon terrorising their village. The fourth time being sacrificed was no more fun than the first, yet at least the beast wasn’t threatening to eat him so much now. That was always a bonus.
Having gotten bored last time, Tobias made sure to grab his bag of papers and some tools before being grabbed up by desperate villagers eager to off their resident mad scientist, and as the dragon had been grooming her deep purple scales, he had been ‘tinkering’.
This time, he didn’t flinch as she bowed her head to his level, nor cringe at the large teeth so close to his face. Instead he glanced up from his idle work and shrugged with the hint of a smile.
“You will see, dragon. Soon, you will see. Patience is a virtue.”
“Mmmh…some would consider it unwise to test a dragon’s patience~” she replied, teasing in an almost flirtatious manner.
She had gotten used to the human’s presence quickly. His village really didn’t like him, labelling him as crazy. Elizabeth didn’t see it, personally. He was a tad eccentric, perhaps, but then so was she.
Lowering her chin to the floor, she continued watching him work. “And when will ‘soon’ be? You wouldn’t want an impatient beast breathing down your neck.” To illustrate her point, she blew some thick smoke from her nostrils.
The smoke tickled his cheeks, his hair fluttering away from its fallen spot on his forehead as he ducked away with an easy laugh.
"No smoking near me, my scaly friend! You know how I hate it." Yet his voice held no malice, and he bent his head to continue his steady work, small clicks and clacks coming from between his fingers as the screwdriver was swapped for a hammer, the hammer for some forceps, and once more diving for the flat-head screw driver.
"You are no-doubt a millennia old, I am sure you can afford to wait an extra five minutes, hm?"
Yet the five minutes didn't come. Instead, Tobias finished his perfect work in three minutes twenty-seven seconds, and with a triumphant grin, turned to face the dragon once again. Then, with a wink and a flourish, he revealed his work.
A small, polished brass toy; a replica of the dragon sitting before him, yet at a mere six inches in height. It stood steady on the cave's rocky ground, and Tobias couldn't help the ecstatic little giggle he gave when he pushed down on the toy's winding tail. It opened its mouth seamlessly, without a hitch, and released a tiny puff of steam, generated by the minute heater he had installed in its stomach.
Truly, the work of a mad genius- or, well, a rather eccentric toy-maker.
Eclipsa.
The “Evil Queen” of Mewni…the “Monster Lover”…the actual giant dork.

The large, royal purple dragon lowered her head toward the engineer, certainly coming too close for comfort, and smiled at him. It was hard to tell if the smile was genuine or malicious; the sharp teeth on display made it difficult to decipher.
“And what are you tinkering with, little human?” she asked with a purr, curious of his work.
It had been a week since he'd been once again sent as a sacrifice to the great dragon terrorising their village. The fourth time being sacrificed was no more fun than the first, yet at least the beast wasn't threatening to eat him so much now. That was always a bonus.
Having gotten bored last time, Tobias made sure to grab his bag of papers and some tools before being grabbed up by desperate villagers eager to off their resident mad scientist, and as the dragon had been grooming her deep purple scales, he had been 'tinkering'.
This time, he didn't flinch as she bowed her head to his level, nor cringe at the large teeth so close to his face. Instead he glanced up from his idle work and shrugged with the hint of a smile.
