I am just a villain // vying for attention from a girl (o/o)

Taking a song lyric and totally rewriting the meaning, let’s have some sweet sweet toxic love type content bcos I feel like it. My character is the Pirate King, yours the Royal Princess and heir to the throne of (insert kingdom name here). When my character intercepts your character’s ship, he doesn’t expect your character to have that much fight in her. Lordy, is he wrong. But that ultimately is why he chooses to hold her for ransom instead of just killing her and causing chaos for chaos’s sake.

This is basically a fantasy world, set and based around the golden age of piracy but not taking all inspiration from it. Ultimately, fantasy creatures exist and you can style your character’s kingdom with inspiration from whatever real or fictional cultures and concepts you want. Tw for obviously a lot of violence, gore, cursing, and mayyybe some smut that goes to DMs if it even happens.

Rules are basically:

Let me know when I’m fucking up or causing issues for your roleplay style, I’m flexible and want to make this fun for both of us!
Don’t be a dick or a bigoted piece of human trash.
Have fun!

Will post templates if and when someone joins.

(Uhh I don’t know how well I know you, kinda a Notebook recluse. can I see a writing sample?)

(nah, your writing style is good if you're good with mine! Do we want to discuss characters or worldbuilding a bit?)

(kinda a vaguely historically inspired fantasy, golden age of piracy but like, uh, with magic and different continents and shizz.)

(probably like, uhhh late twenties to early thirties?? Idk man, I think age gaps are weird and I like playing older characters but also if it makes sense for your character to be younger due to her being the Royal Princess and shizz I get that I just,,,, generally prefer age gaps in more like wlw type relationship becod hot scary older lady. But it makes more sense in context for my dude to be a dude cuz like. Worldbuilding of the Pirate Kingdom I've done.)

(my guy is a fantasy creature, so yours totally can be too but humans are also allowed, up to you!!)

(sure thing dude, and that sounds good! I'll also give you a worldbuilding dump if it helps you!!)

(ooohhhhh like Steven Universe!! But also not.)

(cool!! I can explain my character's gimmicky stuff but it'll take a paragraph or like, several. Idk gimme a minute)

(ok so. Uh it be infodump time but like, spicy infodump. So basically the deal with my character is that he is what is known as an Amalgam Mimic, basically a regular DnD Mimic that got smart really quickly and isn't just a brainless monster. He takes the identities of various creatures via killing them and eating them, so yay!! Cannibalism!! But then he also functionally is them after that point as he contains all their memories and life experiences and personality traits, just like, amalgamated. So basically just a Frankenstein's monster (yay!!) of various people and personalities until he becomes distinct enough to function as his own person. Once that happens he'll integrate into society with an amalgamation of back stories to explain his existence and lull people into complacency. But what he doesn't expect is that he isn't like, totally a heartless monster? The lives he's literally stolen and impersonated were all the lives of ostensibly nice people, and the cannibal monster beneath is basically non-existent now or at least very deeply dormant. He falls in love with a guy, a surgeon named Jacobi Elsie, they have a whole romance and eventually start getting hunted down by the government because they end up doing some piracy stuff together in an attempt to take down the local tyrannic Emperor in charge of their locale. Jacobi gets injured very severely, and my character knows he'll die if something isn't done. So he basically (lovingly) cannibalizes the surgeon so he can live as Jacobi so that Jacobi will never die and neither will his memory. A few years later, the Mimic/Jacobi totally takes on the role of pirate king, and basically lives a life of swashbuckling and violence. Because true love is never simple. Anyways lemme know if you have any questions!!)

(I can get one up shortly, certainly!!)

Name: Captain Jacobi Elsie or "Darkest Night"
Age: 29
Gender Identity and Pronouns: Trans man, he/him
Orientation: Pansexual, grey-aro.
Species: Currently presenting as/currently is his Drow lover.
Appearance: Jacobi is a lean, tall, and handsome man with charcoal-gray skin and pale eyes usually covered by pince-nez style sunglasses. His hair is shocking white, put up in dreadlocks which are usually tied up out of the way. He has a kind face, unless his "Darkest Night" persona is up, in which case his expression deviates from any sense of kindness or gentleness. He is unusually thin for his physical strength, and you can easily feel and see his ribs-that is, if he ever shows that sort of vulnerability to undress around you. His eyes turn red when he becomes "Darkest Night".
Outfits/General Wardrobe: His glasses, of course, but otherwise he wears very stylish garb unusual for a pirate of his sort, practical for medical duties and also highlighting his handsome looks. Black is the only color he wears, occasionally with red and gold accents.
Personality: Darkest Night is the demon currently possessing Jacobi, it is a parasite that latches onto your spine and burrows into your skin, and is ultimately a very cruel thing. It thrives on chaos, hates anything living and hates the very concept of honesty and love. Jacobi Elsie, conversely, is a very kind person-dutiful, ruthless, but won't kill unless he has good reason to. The two battle for control often.
Backstory: Everything previously mentioned + Jacobi was captured shortly after he was cannibalized and transformed, and was tortured and within him was placed the Darkest Night parasite, a demon that slowly destroys the mind and morals of the victim. Jacobi is mid-stage into the parasite's effects, and is currently desperately seeking a cure before he becomes not the Mimic, not Jacobi Elsie, but something else entirely, a much darker something.

Other: ubhhh idk man.
