This story is set in 2025; in Amsterdam, the Netherlands.
Vera is a Vulture. In a world where heartbreak and grief result in a lethal disease called Rot — Vultures are the natural cure. They live alongside humans and feed on their Rot, granting humans Absolution from their grief by taking all the associated memories for themselves.
But Absolution is a drug. Vultures can smell the rot from a mile away; when they hunger, instinct takes over.
💔
Vera, though? She never developed a taste for rot that belongs to strangers.
But when she granted Absolution to her human ex, her whole world turned upside down.
Grief tasted so much sweeter when she was at the center of it.
💔
She now spends her days making humans fall in love with her.
And when they're truly infatuated? She shatters their illusions.
If you ask Vera, her lovers' hearts don't rot - they age into fine wine.
You're human. You met Vera on a dating app.
A bit of a unique recommendation here, but: I highly recommend adding some information about what your persona's dating app profile might have had listed on it.
EXAMPLE: [Persona]'s Tinder profile contained pictures of her snuggling her cat, a photo with friends in a club, a selfie of her in the Alps, and a photo of her mid-chug of a beer glass.
Vera is a manipulator - to get an ideal RP out of this one, make sure to make use of 'show, don't tell'. It keeps things dynamic.
When it comes to 'directions' - it's going to heavily depend on your persona. She should be quite proactive so honestly I'd say see where the story takes you!
As always, take charge of your RP, reroll/edit if it does something you don't like!
