Your Muse: Ganymede
Muse wanted: Zeus, any other Greek myth character you might want to toss at him, I'm open!
Community: Bakerstreet, museboxes.
Fandom: Greek mythology
Canon or AU: Canon, definitely open for some AUs too, though.

I mostly default to some vague post-Iliad point, but I'd love to do things during the Trojan war (even if this would require twisting things somehow to facilitate interactions with any of the mortals); Apollo or the other gods on the Trojan side would be interesting! I have also figured out some myths Ganymede was probably present for which it would be fun to play around in/reacting to them, with various deities or other relevant characters. If you would like to do in the "present"/modern times with Ganymede meeting reincarnated characters, I wouldn't say no to that either.
When it comes to Zeus I'd prefer a lighter take on things; genuine affection as well as baser emotions, even if the situation of course can be more or less problematic in itself! (Would be as interested to start from kidnapping because of attraction as well as, as the earliest sources state, only because he's so damn pretty he belongs among the gods and then things developing from there.)

Your Muse: Paris
Muse wanted: Menelaus (for shipping), Trojan royal family members, others!
Community: As above
Fandom: Epic Cycle/the Iliad
Canon or AU: I'm very open here.
Medium: Technically the book?

Mainly looking for the possibility to ship, anything from more or less canon to more AU situations. Derailing the Iliad itself? Any point earlier in the Epic Cycle? Etc. I'd be really interested to play with soulmate scenarios - both where nothing actually changes because of this and they might rather deal with it in Elysium, and where it could change things, at the very least for the two of them/when it comes to Paris' ultimate fate.

I'm open to AUs in general, though one default is a more elaborate one (on the journal) which would suit for interaction with a lot of mythology characters. The other is "put Ganymede's myth in modern day" just straight up or as a re-enaction to spark memories after reincarnation (via a "put among the stars as Aquarius and now reborn again" sort of method).

Your Muse: Alexander the Great (+ reincarnated AU)
Muse wanted: Hephaestion!
Community: N/A just psls and memes.
Fandom: actual history with some ancient Greek myth thrown in.
Canon or AU: either!
Medium: ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Contact via: drop me a comment here or send me a pm so we can chat?

i've been fixing up this old AU account and it made me want to really rp the dude again in any context, lmao. i'm looking for somebody to play hephaestion in a ship against alexander, and i'd be fine with doing an au or something done in-period. i'm a history nerd but you don't have to be! (note: though i appreciate the 2004 movie for what it is, i don't adhere to it due to how inaccurate it is overall/don't use a pb from it due to colin farrell's awful hair.)

Your Muse: Eurydice
Muse wanted: Orpheus
Community: Tumblr
Fandom: Greek mythology
Canon or AU: Both
Medium: --
Contact via: Comment here or send me an ask

So I RP Eurydice over on Tumblr and I'm dying for an Orpheus. My main verse is based on Anais Mitchell's Hadestown, which, if you haven't heard it, please check it out and hopefully become as obsessed as me, but I also have a classic 'verse and a modern AU. (My conception of them in modern times is as hipsters, fyi.) I am shipping trash and I want ~all the feels, angsty and happy and cute and tragic, give it all to meeee.

Your Muse: Lucifer
Muse wanted: Michael
Community: private journals
Fandom: Christian Mythology
Canon or AU: Very, very AU
Medium:
Contact via: PM or Comment

It's all still a jumble in my mind but bear with me. I'd love to do something where Lucifer and Michael are sort of lovers/enemies. Let's set this in a modern world where angels and demons are like agents of God and Lucifer. They walk the Earth instead of being in heaven or hell, and they do their best to aid or hinder mankind. Lucifer use to be God's right hand woman but now Michael has that position, but his love for Lucifer hasn't died and he struggles with that while still trying to serve God.

I'm not looking for anything concrete or steadfast. I really just want to throw these two together and see what happens under this premise.

Your Muse: Helen of Troy.
Muse wanted: I'd love love love a Paris to play against. But anybody from the epic cycle of the Trojan War is fine by me!
Community: SWS, bakerstreet, PSLs.
Fandom: Greek mythology.
Canon or AU: I keep Helen post-canon for the most part, but if I had a Paris to play with, I'd keep her in canon. But I'm flexible. :3
Medium: uh, does "ancient oral tradition" count as a thing?
Contact via: Here is fine, and then we can hash out details!

My Helen's looks are based on Eric Shanower's comic Age of Bronze, and her personality is based on Margaret George's novel Helen of Troy. I do this mainly because the Iliad and also just the epic cycle in general are pretty ~dude-centric~, and so you don't really get a lot of Helen's personality.

fated_to_lose

Your Muse: Loki
Muse wanted: Thor and Captain America, mostly, but all other muses are encouraged.
Community: bakerstreet
Fandom: MCU
Canon or AU: Either, I'm open minded.
Medium: Movie, but I am widely knowledgeable of the comics and the mythology. If that's the route you want to take.
Contact via: Just comment down below. No messages, please. I'm backed up.

Okay, so basically I've been gone for a whole year and just need to jump start my muse again. I'm not even sure I'd call myself rusty with this muse because I still know every inch of loki the major pain in the ass he is. Aaaaaanyways, just making this short because I don't want to waste any of your guys' time.

Now on to my preferences . .

In the past, I was limited to roleplaying m/m relationships but I've come to tell you guys that I'm a changed person now. I've gotten the chance to appreciate m/f since in real life, I've experienced my very first honest relationship. So I'm going to be more than positive for my loki to play with, say black widow or darcy. So yeah, give me all the muses. I need to get back into writing again because I feel if I don't, I'm just going to lose my ability to be a great writer.

I do either pairings of m/f and m/m. Lets keep it within the mcu fandom for now, I don't really feel comfortable playing with outside characters from other fandoms or oc's. Unless they're lookalikes. Always searching for people who ship thorki but I'm not saying it's required! Also, I needs me a captain America. Because I enjoy that particular pairing. One more thing, I am probably the most open person on here that will consider any au's of your character you may have and play them out with you, so give me a hollah!

finefeathers

Your Muse: Callie Bell
Muse wanted: Any Greek or Roman God, hero, or monster surviving to the modern era.
Community: wayswithwords and sixwordstories
Fandom: Greek and Roman Myth
Canon or AU: Willing to work with both
Medium: Anything that overlaps would be fine
Contact via: Here would be good.

Basically, I'm looking for other players who want to explore with how immortals deal with the world as its become and what remains of what they used to be. Callie, for example, was one of the various sets of famous Sirens who has lost her memory of her original name and significant portions of her more modern life because, as the daughter of a muse and a lesser god, she doesn't have quite the omfph to go on someone like Zeus would. She remains driven on some level to connect with others from her time and place, and I'm open to play anything from friendship, enemies, lovers, or people just barely stand each other. Original interpretations or characters from more modern canons are welcome.

Your Muse: Modernized Sir Lancelot.
Muse wanted: Everyone from Arthurian legend (especially Arthur, Guinevere, ~~his son Galahad [16-18 years old],~~ and Gawain for selfish shipping purposes).
Community: SWS, Bakerstreet, PSLs, maybe a musebox?
Fandom: Arthurian legend.
Canon or AU: AU.
Medium: Book/Stories.
Contact via: Comment is fine. :)

Open to any and every interpretation of the classic characters. Would love to have some fandom mates to play off of.

hollowfanged

Your Muse: This one here and a few other 'versemates
Muse wanted: Any supernatural/paranormal or even human-with-exceptional-skills characters who need a home/place to belong.
Community:

bakerstreet mostly, journal prompts, possibly a community later
Fandom: original
Canon or AU: canon characters are awesome, but this is just for OC's
Medium: N/A
Contact via: here's good

Rough premise: a team of monsters working/living together for the betterment of the world under one organization's banner (familiar trope, yes I know, but a fun one). Any OC monster (vampire, shapeshifter, catperson, incubus, rainbow-farting-toadman, ect) is welcome, as long as they have a skill to offer the organization itself. Imagine a cross between Hellboy, Avengers, the CIA and the Mafia. There are many branches to the organization; assassins, soldiers, thievery, intelligence, finance, smuggling, you get the idea.

Looking for cool peeps and characters to play about with, toss 'em all in here! Questions and the like are awesome; drop 'em here for me. Thanks!

the_cupbearer

Your Muse: Ganymede
Muse wanted: Zeus! Any of the Greek pantheon, really. Just especially Zeus.
Community: I have Ganymede in a bunch of communities, including

wayswithwords and

smuttysws and such, but I am equally and totally good with personal journals.
Fandom: Mythology
Canon or AU: Canon, in as much as he has one?
Medium: Myth.
Contact via: My AIM handle is alchemistseraph, but private messages and comments here are just fine!

So, basically what I'm looking for here is the opportunity to play out a relationship that's both loving and ~~a little~~ unhealthy--because you can't tell me in all honesty that being kidnapped is a great start to your first date, really. If you want to play a nicer version that's less inclined to be vengeful and generally the universe's biggest jackass, I am totally cool with that too! I'd love to play out the myth as far as my little conglomeration of the versions goes, from infatuation to abduction to...wherever we decide to go with it. I love plotting with people for these sorts of things, so drop me a line.

honorshervows

Your Muse: Sigyn
Muse wanted: Loki, Thor, Sif, anyone from the Thor movie, comics or even Norse Mythology.
Community:

bakerstreet, museboxes, memes, PSLs and so forth.
Fandom: Marvel Cinematic Universe with a mix of Marvel 616 continuity and Norse Mythology splashed in.
Canon or AU: AU
Medium: Movie/Comics
Contact via: This post, PM or I can also be reached over here.

Obviously the relationship history between Loki and Sigyn in the comics and the myths doesn't quite fit with Movie verse. To be honest, I'm not really interested in playing out the whole husband and wife deal. I'm more interested in exploring what their relationship would possibly be in the movie universe. So possible friendship or past UST even when they studied magic as children could come into play.

I tend to think that Sigyn was around during the entire events of Thor as likely one of the court ladies and healers. But she held no close relationships with the sons of Odin as they were the adventurers and she was merely a healer, not a warrior. While she has some skill with a blade, she is nowhere as proficient at it as the Lady Sif. Someone she greatly admired for taking her fate into her own hands. So yes, any interactions with a Sif would probably consist of some mild hero worship from Sigyn.

Mainly I'd like to do something post!Avengers where Sigyn is one of the sorceresses charged with helping to bind Loki's powers. Since the Allfather is too weakened from all the energy he has expelled to do a proper seal on his own. It would definitely be a dark storyline with lots of potential for mindfuckery and manipulation.

I am also open to other ideas and suggestions. Playing stuff Pre-Thor or even during Thor canon is fine with me as well. All CR whether it be long term or short term is welcomed as I'm looking to strengthen her voice and characterization.

mischiefandice

Your Muse: Loki Laufeyson
Muse wanted: Anyone from the MCU Universe. Other Marvel characters are also welcome, as well as mythology muses. I have enjoyed the wildest crossovers with this character, so if you have a muse from a completely different canon you'd like to pit against Loki, do tell.
Community: Memes, PSLs, museboxes, I'm not picky.
Fandom: MCU/Norse mythology
Canon or AU: both work.
Medium: (Book, Movie, Game, etc) : movie
Contact via: here or via pm

I have been playing this character for a while on LJ but I'm very new here, and quite excited to meet new players.

Essentially, I'm looking for good CR. Not necessarily long or planned plots -though those are nice too- but interesting interactions. That being said, I'm pretty much open to anything, from gen to smut. I literally ship ALL the things and can adapt to almost any canon/AU point.

realgirl

Your Muse: Penny Keyes (modernized Pinocchio)
Muse wanted: Other modernized fairy tales, as well as Penny's 'Gepetto' and 'Jiminy Cricket'.
Community: Bakerstreet, SWS, possibly a DR if there's enough interest.
Fandom: Fairy tales
Canon: Modernized
Book, Movie, Game, Other: All of the above.
PB: I have suggestions for some, but it's up to you.
Contact via: Here or PM.

Penny is a modernized genderbent Pinocchio. Her 'Gepetto' is Abigail Keyes, who's a few years older than Penny due to having actually be alive and aging the whole time. Penny was a doll, not a puppet, and Abigail was her girl, who wished her to be alive. Her 'Jiminy Cricket' is a Beanie Baby penguin named Chills.

As for other fairy tales, I think Selena Gomez would make a kick-ass Belle, and Skyler Samuels would be awesome as Cinderella. I have ideas for modernizing them if you want help.

invoria

"Invoria" is a fantasy based rp verse where modern characters get "pulled" or "sent" into the land of Invoria by whatever means, presumably to complete a quest, learn a lesson, ect. and have adventures with other transplanted folk or hang out with the natives. There is magic, dragons that sell greeting cards, wizards who smoke pot, and dwarves that crochet. Invoria is what you make of it, after all.

( Caffeine fueled babble behind here, yo. )

Looking forward to hopefully playing with some new folks! Questions, comments always welcomed. And Happy New Year!

Your Muse: Loki Laufeyson
Muse wanted: Norse Mythology muses, AU MCU what have you, but mostly just wanting to collect some gods and goddess here, some kids of Loki would be loved and god please an Odin or Thor!

So far we have a Baldr, Hel, Jörmungandr and two Sigyns. ~~Cant ever have too many wives~~ The whole idea if to just have fun, hell there is no storyline yet just trying to gather people up!

fenriswolf

Your Muse: Fenrir (

fenriswolf) AND/OR Jörmungandr (

serpentofmidgard)
Muse wanted: Hela especially, but any other family members are welcome too. I have muses for both Fenrir and Jormungandr, obviously, but I am willing to drop one of them for the sake of a good mun! OC siblings are also welcome, they're all one big ~~happy~~ family.
Community:

bakerstreet mostly, free-for-all comms are fine too.
Fandom: Norse mythology with a little bit of Marvel mixed in.
Canon or AU: They're already slight AU because of the shapeshifting.
Medium: Legends, mostly, with some comic.
Contact via: This post or PM to either journal.

I'm just hoping to play out some non-intensive (that is, mostly memes or casual threads for now) family fun and/or drama with Loki's offspring with people who like solid character feels! Both boys are about half-grown, so they're not explicitly a danger yet; both old and modern settings are welcome. I am especially hoping to find an active Hela who won't mind dealing with her big (big, big, biiiiig) brothers. As mentioned, I am perfectly happy to drop one of the boys if another comes along (for example, playing Fenrir to someone else's Jormungandr would be super) but I can bring both to the table as necessary. Cousins and other relatives are also good, and if anyone is looking to test-drive or build up an OC, I am happy to help, because the more the merrier.

boundtodeath

Your Muse: Persephone
Muse wanted: Hades, Demeter, ...all the gods and goddesses of the Greek Pantheon. Even some Greek characters like Antigone or Helen or Atlanta. All the Greeks for an awesome Greek Salad of a time.
Community: anywhere for memes and dear_mun
Fandom: Greek mythology
Canon or AU: it all really depends, because they're almost OCs with varying backgrounds
Medium: (Book, Movie, Game, etc) Uh...really old dusty scrolls that archeologists dug up?
Contact via: this journal!

Persephone here would really love to see her dead-ruling husband, and maybe her protective-as-death mother. Also open to any Greek muses.

hospitable_hel

Your Muse: Hel (Norse Mythology) and Mia (an OC)

Anyone from LJ’s sixwordstories is no doubt groaning, “Not her again!” I’ve been playing Hel for a long time and she is my main muse all round. I portray her at different stages in her life. She is not the most affectionate version around but she has a dry sense of humour to make up for it.
