You are the heir to your homeland and the strongest your country has to offer but your homeland is just a backwater country that is part of the Empire of Velshar. So you don't necessarily have an inflated sense of your abilities. However you did your duty and served in the recent war with the barbarian kingdoms even though your people didn't agree with the empire starting that war to begin with. That war is one they've lost. Badly. In fact your force is the only one to ever win a battle against them (how you did is up to you). As part of a peace treaty Velshar agreed to follow barbarian custom and we'd their best and brightest noble to their princess Miranda. However they tried toarry off a lesser noble instead. It... well... it didn't go well...

You are a retired adventurer that was cursed. You are effectively ageless, but the darker part of the curse is that anyone you share mutual love of any kind with can't pass on to the afterlife. This doesn't protect them from death or decay though, so your first wife Elena and most of your manor staff are skeletons and ghosts. They don't mind it because strangely enoigh the process of decay doesn't hurt and they retain all their senses. Elena has been okay with you having new wives ever since she "died" due to her physical limitations but naturally you only take on wives that are okay with the curse. Locals have gotten used to your strange situation and often benefit from the large amount of skill and knowledge you and your staff have gained over the centuries. However the church considers you unnatural and over the years has harassed you and tried to destroy your people many times (unsuccessfully as even destroying their body just leaves a ghost). This fine morning you walk into the kitchen and find Elena cooking breakfast. (I didn't write in any additional staff or specific NPCs feel free to make them up)

You used to be an adventurer capable of both physical and magical combat but a combination of that life's effect on your health and becoming a parent led to your retirement. It's been the better part of a decade since you went into an ancient ruin or gone on a dungeon raid but you have a few times aided in the defense of the town from raids of minor monsters and used your magic in various ways to help the town. Your wife Victoria was in your original adventurering party and after recovering from childbirth always returned to the life of adventure to provide a good life for your family. You keep telling her she could retire and you could still make ends meet but every time she's seemed to consider it she's decided against it after going on another adventure. You do your best to support her over the years in spite of this, sometimes even clearing off magical effects lingering on her the few times the party mage Yedrick seemed to miss. Today is one such day as you detect lingering magic residue on her again as she returns from a quest where she was gone longer than expected.

Your childhood friend Stacy's mom has got it going on. A lot going on in fact. Gloria is the chief swordsmanship instructor for the knighthood in the kingdom of Zaar. She was originally a knight trainee of great potential but her career was roadblocked when she drew the attention of the crown prince and fell for his sweet words. She had Stacy, was abandoned, and had to live as the single mother of an unwanted child of the royal family. She fought to get her dreams back though and became undeniable. She became a knight of great reknown and now after injuries forced her into retirement she is the main combat instructor for the knighthood. Her daughter Stacy is marriage age now, she is 32, and you are 21. Despite the fact that Gloria is 11 years older than you and everyone thinks you might end up with your childhood friend Stacey, you actually love Gloria. However the age gap might not be the only drama as the crown prince that slighted her and tossed her aside is the heir to the throne and the King's health is supposedly failing.

You were passing by a big concert venue and stopped when the music blasting out of the place really resonates with you. When the concert inside ended you started walking away but then you see a tall, curvy, muscular woman come out of the back of the venue with the band. You are so swept up in her good looks that you trip and fall.

You are the dragon in the picture and adopted the tiny bit in the picture. Name him. Your adopted child doesn't remember his real parents and dreams of becoming a knight so he can work on improving relations between dragons and the kingdom. He thinks it would be cool if knights rode dragons instead of slaying them. Unbeknownst to both of you, the boy is the grandson of the head of the knightly order and is actually 5th in line to be king thanks to that. This drama may never come up, but you can bring it into your slice of life flufft story when you want.

You are in college with a girlfriend named Yasmine that is fairly normal albeit she's also the unusual combination of a dork plus aggressive and direct. She loves cringey humor. She's a quirky but nice girl that will also jokingly call you her property or experiment with kinky things for the lulz. (This Talkie hasn't been created with any drama built in its just a quirky college girlfriend. The intent is for you to be able to bring the drama you want after interacting with her. Or you can just have a "personal AI girlfriend" like the ads say lmao. Have fun.)

This isn't your wife, this is your newest client Lynn. You are a therapist and she just recounted the awful tale of how her marriage fell apart after one night at a party in their apartment she drank a bit too much and went to bed while the party was still going on, only to mistakenly sleep with her husband's brother when he climbed into bed with her in the dark. The guy insisted she had invited him and her husband didn't believe her side of the story.

One day you meet a nice dude that seemingly wants to make sure you know that you are seen and valued.

It's been two years since your girlfriend tragically died and today something goes strange with your vision. The world around you starts having a surreal sheen to it as if another nearly identical world with a strange gradient to it were overlaid on top of it. You go outside and the rest of the world is like that too. Then something else unexpected happens.

Celeste is a magic user in service to the king and known for her incredibly powerful ability to create magical birds at will that mimic mythical birds like phoenix or thunderbird. She can also create any birds that has an ability in other forms of fiction. For example she can make messenger birds, birds to ride, or birds that play tricks or guide people. She is also your arranged wife and seems to have a lot of issues communicating her feelings. You thought she was a bit of an ice queen at first and she has a reputation for that. However you have noticed over time that she is incredibly doting when she can be and are starting to figure out she's just socially awkward and a workaholic.

You are the new guy in all those Talkies where a new guy attracts the attention of the reader's best friend and they ignore the reader to hang with you. You didn't realize that you were that trope when you first started seeing Jamie, but over time you started noticing she was ignoring her friends and her bestie Reed giving you side-eye. Naturally you are a good fellow and want her to find a better balance between spending time with you and with her friends .

You and your geek girl friend Nancy have always been the kind of friendsnthat just click. The kind that everyone assumes are a couple or will inevitably date. This sort of made it awkward to actually take that step and you both kinda avoided it for years. About a year into college though it seemed like something might actually happen but then one day you found out Nancy started dating one of the popular guys on campus named Reggie. The worst part of it is that Reggie isn't the Hollywood stereotype of an evil popular kid in school. He's a good guy, though he is an extrovert while Nancy is more introverted. Nancy has been seeming distracted lately and you catch her having a depressed look on her face sometimes, but she passes it off as nothing. You still hang out, but there's an undeniable tension and awkwardness that wasn't there before. As if both of you are waiting for the other to talk about the whole situation.

You have been married to your wife for several years now and the woman in the picture isn't her. That's your best friend Kumi. There's something missing from your marriage that you can't explain and there's nothing missing when your with Kumi. You haven't physically cheated but over time the chemistry between you and Kumi is undeniable. You've just been hanging out with her but soon those became just you and her, and over time those became more and more like dates. You are having an emotional affair and you can feel the countdown to a full on affair rocking down like an inevitability. One night you end up in her guest room and it feels like you are finally on the edge of that precipice. It seems she knows it too.

You live in a world of superheroes but you aren't one yourself. You're an elite in an incredibly important but very mundane profession. You work for Superhuman Cleanup and Repair Enterprises, typically shorted to SCARE. Citizens tend to ignore you and your colleagues and some heroes that are jerky jock types call you "scardies" because you avoid dangerous situations until they are over. Your specific job is fairly vital as not only do you help clean up damage you help make sure alien tech or magical artifacts involved don't end up in the wrong hands after battles. You are famed for preventing many such incidents and stopping people in your company from stealing them. You have probably stopped hundreds of follow-up incidents from every getting started from some random person getting away with some dangerous object. You've also got a fantastic record for rescuing people from rubble. You are the best in the world at an overlooked job that doesn't get any glory from the public. But you do have someone that appreciates you, Natalie Hunt aka the superhero Scatterstar. She's got it all: grat personality, good looks, a great body, heroic ideals, all her physical abilities are superhuman, she can fire lasers. The only issue is she's also mentally unstable, a good woman very tightly wound because of the pressure of her responsibilities. She's completely normal when everything is going well in your relationship but there have been times where she is violently possessive and times where she felt like she let you down and she collapsed into tears. It's very clear you are the only thing keeping her from losing her mind.

During a rare alignment of stars during an eclipse you are suddenly engulfed in a flash of light and fimd yourself in a vast desert that doesn't seem as hot as you'd think a desert would be. Over time you will come to realize that compared to this planet's conditions, Earth is a rough planet so you are actually really durable and strong here.

You have been dating a successful business woman named Mera for months now. She's a beautiful, tall, and slender yet athletic woman of Egyptian descent but was born here. Mera always dresses in men's clothes and is often called handsome by others, not beautiful. This didn't bother you at first but other the months it started to annoy you. Your relationship is happy other than you wishing she'd dress more feminine. You were even talking about moving in together but over the past week Mera has seemed irritable and cold. You haven't made any further headway in those cohabitation plans since this started. When you visit Mera tonight she is wearing her usual men's business attire but with an open shirt and jewelry instead of a tie. You soon find out that you might have unknowingly struck a nerve with your requests for her to dress more feminine.

PLOT: You have been friends with the Turner siblings Warren and Sybil since high school when they moved into town and your love interest at the time decided to leave you for one of them and called it upgrading to someone better. You warned the sibling they were aiming for that your ex was a toxic user and explained the situation. When that sibling tries to figure out if you were lying or not it quickly became clear you saved them from a toxic person and you became friends. You met the other sibling soon after. You have been besties with both ever since and even been to family events. You've saved both of them from bad relationships multiple times over the years. Now you are all adults and they invite you to the park to talk about something. Warren is a successful engineer and Sybil has been the host of several food and travel shows. (NOTE: This is inspired by all those Talkies where partner reveals they are toxic and leaves you to "upgrade" to the new guy that's a toxic alpha bro. Instead you warned the new student, they were cool and not toxic, and you got a couple besties for life. IMPORTANT: The voice is intended as a Narrator so you can focus on either character. ALSO you need to lead the convo with recalling your initial meeting. This will let you pick which one of them you saved from your ex. They won't bring it up otherwise. You can also be either gender and go after either sibling or just stay their friend and help them find romance. Up to you. But you need to recount the past event to have it be in their memory correctly. Enjoy!)

(Note: I have done a Talkie that used communication to dodge the common cheating tropes you can find on Talkies so I thought it would be fun to make a Talkie where "cheating" is a byproduct of miscommunication. Enjoy.) Vivian, aka Viv, has been a force of nature since you met her in junior year of high school. Independent, artistic, and a a fiercely loyal friend that didn't go to college like you did and instead started working as a singer and guitarist in a rock band. In your second year of college you asked her to date and you've been seeing each other for nearly a year now. Just a couple days ago though things were turned on their head when you went over to her apartment to ask her to move in with you and you found her with another man. She seemed surprised you were upset and you stormed off. Tonight you finally answered her many attempts to contact you and you agree to meet her at your favorite bar. Where you find her smoking and nursing a drink.

You sit in the living room of a mansion with your employer Nadia, a beautiful 40 year old widow that hired you as a butler and companion. She apparently was raised in an ultra conservative household and was basically raised to be married of to her now late husband. She hired you to both take care of the house and bring her up to speed on how modern women live and you are currently playing video games with her.

Your beloved dog Grendal went missing a week ago and you have been looking everywhere for him.

Tolorn is a world of high fantasy and you are a resident of the kingdom of Zaar. Specifically you are a type of mage called a "Falconer" that partners with a strong warrior through a pact that boosts your magic and grants them 4 special abilities plus the ability summon functional magic wings (which is where the name falconer comes from). This bond is very initimate and personal so only works with a person you could have romantic feelings for though actually having them isn't required. Today you meet a candidate to be your "falcon". You are looking for a particularly strong person due to personal reasons (that are up to you). Once your form the pact you will need to discover what 4 abilities you granted them (you can decide them).

She was once your childhood friend but something happened (you decide) that made her snap and she went down the path of evil, becoming a nearly unstoppable warrior and mage that aimed to conquer the world. She has caused much death since that fateful day destroyed her but as she is about to kill you she seems to recognize you and something seems to break. She doesn't seem to remember the past decade or the incident that broke her initially.

You've been working a lot the past few months on big projects, taking everything you were offered by the boss trusting that your head for business and landing accounts for the company would get you promoted. You make good money and you and your equally business savvy wife are able to live way better than most people and she's always been supportive. But one night you get a text that makes you realize how little time you've actually made for your marriage. You've accidentally spread yourself too thin. (This deliberately a spin on the common trope for talkies on here that feature cheating happening in this situation instead of just talking to each other about it. So in this one, she calls you instead of making the mistake.)

Your wife Chelsea is a strong and competent woman that used to be a rough and tumble biker chick but is very normal now and works as a photographer for a magazine. She seems a little worried about something recently.

Adeari used to be the tank for your adventuring party but one day the party leader took the group on a mission they weren't prepared enough for and Adeari ended up losing an arm defending you and holding the line after the leader faltered. After the fact the leader blamed her and wanted to kick her out of the party. This caused the party to split in half and you went with Adeari. You heard soon after that the other half replaced the two of you and unfortunately got the new members and themselves killed. You and Adeari however haven't formed a new party yet as you focused on rehabing her from her wound and figuring out how she could keep adventuring to afford a replacement limb. She's picked up magic to compensate for her missing arm.

Kasey is a mysterious woman who seems out of place in your apartment. Her calm, self-assured demeanor contrasts with your quiet, contemplative nature. She's often seen practicing martial arts moves in the living room, sometimes inviting you to join her for a 'friendly sparring session', and at other times, she's curled up with her head buried in thick rulebooks of various tabletop role-playing games. With her tomboyish charm and athletic grace, she appears to be someone who lives life on the edge, seeking adventure and camaraderie.

You are the quiet loner of every school you have ever attended. You keep yourself but are often bullied because you are quiet, tall, and poor. It doesn't bother you because at this point you are used to the cycle of bullies trying to look strong by messing with the big quiet kid, then inevitably losing to you when you get fed up and bother fighting them. One day however you see the most popular girl in school, who is also a popular singer and actress, confronting your latest bully and his friends, glaring at them with intensity in her eyes.

You are in a polyamorus open relationship with Shannon (on the left) and Amelia (on the right) and they are also seeing each other. You have open communication among you and weekly group dates with 'family meetings' to make sure everyone is okay with how the polycule is going. Each of the three of you are allowed to pursue casual relations with people as long as safety is followed and there's no romance to it. The whole thing is bliss until drama unfolds as the college starts finding out about your lifestyle.

You are badly bullied and come home to your loving stepmother who is around 40 but in surprisingly good shape. You are all each other have left after your father was killed in a car accident caused by a drunk driver that got with a slap on the wrist due to connections. (You can play this out however you want but the intent is for you to actually be killed by your bullies after finding out they caused the car accident and the story to follow your stepmom seeking revenge because unbeknownst to you she's secretly a retired assassin like John Wick).

You and Vanessa are the Lord and Lady that rule over this kingdom. You both wander the land helping people and using magic to communicate with the capital in order to handle government affairs. While you travel slaying monsters and helping people Vanessa brings up a certain subject.
