RULES.
001 : FIRST & FOREMOST. RACISTS, HOMOPHOBES, TRANSPHOBES, ZIONISTS, ABLEISTS, ETC. ARE NOT WELCOME. EAT SHIT. - i also block people who write noncon, dubcon, pedophilia, incest, etc., and those who age up characters who are minors for shipping and/or smut. so if any of this applies to you don't interact with me.
002 : SHIPPING & DYNAMICS. Listen, I love me a good ship, I do—however some of my muses are pretty hard to ship with due to their past experiences and their natures, not saying ships won't happen but be aware of these factors. Also, I'm not shipping my muses with any characters that are under 25, so don't try it. I'll get the stick, I swear to god.
I will say, though, I love exploring dynamics between characters so if you got one you wanna throw at me with any of my muses hit me up!
003 : VIEWER DISCRETION ADVISED. due to the nature of some of these characters, certain dark topics may come up like gore & violence; so just be aware. that being said, though, I will never write or have sexual assault / r*pe, pedophilia, and / or incest in this space.
004 : REPLIES. length really doesn't matter to me, you don't have to match my length whatsoever. however, if you give me a one-liner when i give you a couple of paragraphs i'll likely drop the thread altogether. at the very least meet me halfway in between, okay? cool. also there's no time limits on threads here either, take all the time you need to reply if we got one going.
005 : INTERACTING. if i can't find your age and you don’t have working links to your rules & muse's bio/stats, i'm not following you. plain and simple. i need information on your muse to get an idea on how our muses can interact and i don't want to accidentally break any of your rules.
006 : DNI. i am not willing to write with muses from the following fandoms. harry potter, 13 reasons why, stranger things, lost boys, and riverdale. i am also not willing interact with people who use problematic face claims for their muses, those who whitewash poc characters, those who erase a canon queer character's sexuality or gender, and/or people who outright ignore femme muses in favor of masc or male muses. also if you use ai to write replies or generate images, get out of my face.
if things feel too visceral, if you are blurring the lines between reality & fiction when it comes to roleplay, becoming possessive over a person you ship with ooc and get jealous when they ship with others, and can't communicate those things like an adult should, maybe rp isn't for you and you should find a new hobby. unhealthy attachments aren't cool, they're unhealthy, as stated, and they can be really scary for the person you're projecting all of this on.
roleplay can be incredibly fun, but at the end of the day, it's not real and you should not project your feelings on a real person behind the screen because they're shipping their character with yours. that's really scary to do, especially if the person has stated that they aren't interested in pursuing anything ooc, and skimming around it under the guise of friendship is incredibly shitty too.
Stories come, stories go. Legends are born, and sometimes legends die.
Krystal was made years ago, when I first joined an RP group set in a town where supernatural things converged with the mundane, she was simply a vampire hunting hippy back then who had a thing for knives and was dead set on killing her vampire ex; but eventually she became something more.
She was a Line Rider, fierce, dumb, and loyal until she let love rule her heart. She left and didn’t help herself with the shit she said. An Angel of Death filled her head with romantic notions only for her to run away from that marriage, not that it was his fault either. In truth, they were both only people looking to feel a void that neither of them could fill.
Then came the Devil Wreckers, where she forged herself as a succubus in their ranks; but then her club thought she was going to betray them so she left them too. Then came the World of Darkness, the Masquerade.
She starts fresh, starts over again, she meets Vicente and at first their romance is loud, reckless, passionate, they did crimes together, stole shit, they were at the top of the world, then the distance set in—and Krystal realized that the bond was the only thing that had kept them together. The blood bond between Ghoul & Kindred. When she was free, she made the decision not to go back, and the pair ended on somewhat rocky terms. But Krystal didn’t blame him, not entirely.
She met Zarina, a Brujah Elder who took her under her wing when she was a ghoul under Vicente too, took care of her in his absence, becoming a mother to her and offered her immortality. Then Zarina died, and Krystal met a man who she thought she loved but was blinded by the bond made in blood, a Ventrue who shall not be named here. She even achieved her life long dream of marriage after two failures, but she did not find the happiness she sought. Only hollowness. Which is why it is time that she goes away.
Krystal’s story was a story of mistakes made by the heart, letting her emotions rule her decisions where she should have let her mind be clear but that was what made her human. She was emotional, reckless, and mean as shit. But there was a side that was maternal, deeply caring about those who held dear.
And there were so many others who touched Krystal’s life, so many and too many to name but she’s made impact on those character’s stories as they’ve made an impact on the chapters of hers. Francis, Jurek, Frank, Burt, Dallas, Johnny, Quinn, just to name a few. Not all of them ended on good terms but at one point they were good with her, at one point those who drifted were family, and she maybe she fucked up; but that’s part of being human isn’t it? That’s what made her human.
So now, Krystal goes off into the sunset as her story ends here. It hurts letting her go, I’ve had her for nearly a decade now but even such iconic characters need an ending. And at least, Lucy gets a peaceful one unlike her beginnings where she was left to die.
Vampire: The Masquerade, LOS ANGELES BY NIGHT | The Favored Ghoul AU –
After surviving the first initial vampire that attempted to take her life, Krystal comes to LA nearly a decade later in search of opportunity, after her MC splits apart. Unfortunately, the opportunity doesn’t seem to be what she intended. Instead, she finds herself in the heart of kindred politics as she uncovers secrets not meant for her. Barons find out she’s in the know, she becomes a ghoul to some 13th-gen Brujah, but despite that, she makes waves more so than her domitor, even befriending (if one can call it that) a few barons along the way.
However, a year later, the Camarilla overtook LA, killing allies and forcing remaining barons to retreat, which led Krystal to flee to New York for a time. Her old friend and now fiancé, the Anarch, Rusty of clan Ventrue, followed her there. She asks him to take up the role of domitor because he’s the only one she can trust, while also plotting with the kindred allies she trusts to bring down the tower once and for all.
