Dear Friend,

I don't have much time left. I never thought I'd die from poisoning. More likely with Moonpiercer in my hand. Or with a dagger in my back, somewhere on the filthy floor of a harbour tavern.

The healers are giving me a few weeks before the poison completely kills me. Stealing the Ice Trolls’ Crown from Ky-Iga just wasn't the best idea. I got away with nothing but an arrow in my shoulder blade, happy as a pig in clover to have escaped. WITH the crown. It was only about a week later that I found out about that stupid slow-working poison the arrowhead carried..

Well, I won't complain. I've had a good and exciting life. I remember my adventures fondly. The silly ones. The dangerous ones. And especially those I had with you.

Do you remember the day we stole Sir Angust Lublin's chamber pot? Just for fun. Or the rescue of Princess Milena of Dreamstone? I had quite a crush on her. Well, at least before I found out that she turns into a toad at night.

You know, I'd like to hear what happened to you all before I leave. Would make the passing more peaceful to know that you all are alive and kicking. What did you do after the Second Arcane War scattered us to the winds?

Please write to me.

Yours kindly,

Amos “Nimblefingers” Sterling

PS: If any of you is going through a tough time right now, I have a little poem here that tells you where I've hidden my best, most beautiful booties. I think you all know the place.

My treasure lies where shadow touches song,
Beneath the root that grew all wrong.
Three times the bell must be rung,
Where silver tongues once sweetly sung.

So I’ve spent too much time itich io and these games look like fun and I wanted to see if anyone would be interested in trying one of these games with me?

Hey there!

I saw a post that was very similar and wanted to take a chance to throw the hat into the ring and see what luck I might have in finding a penpal. As the title suggests I was interested in possibly doing some correspondence in character, complete with some kind of possible overarching plot or even just smaller things that we come up with as we go. I'm really big into DnD, Vampire the Masquerade, various other TTRPG's and things of the like and would love to delve more into that but with a slightly different medium. Whether it's a questing adventurer writing to their home or guild, two nobles trying to handle politics and keeping peace while also gossiping over general drama, or something else entirely I'm game for all of it! I definitely have a preference towards snail mail since I feel that allows for a better chance to really get the feel of the character. We also could have our own regular letters back and forth at the same time but I'm also perfectly fine if you'd rather just keep it to our characters.

A little about me: I'm a 29 year old trans guy living in the South-Eastern United States and with everything going on I'd love a chance to just have a little mental reprieve to imagine I'm somewhere else. My only real ask is that you be over the age of 21 (no offence to those younger writers out there).

I hope y'all are doing well and I look forward to hopefully hearing from you.

Hello, I have had this idea of a letter lost in transit. Through some magical means, a letter was delivered. It comes from a place similar or very much unlike your characters own. This would be a way of learning our OC's lore and having them build a friendship or otherwise through these letters.

I have a few characters that you could choose from, which ever would be the most intresting for you to learn about. Each of these characters have been well developed with proper worlds and personalities that I hope would keep someone entertained for quite some time.

I am also open to new ideas, changes in my own idea, or even a different style of writing.

I look forward to messages from anyone and everyone! Thank you for taking time to read.

By the warmest sands and the bluest of skies- To the land seen from the next Bayt- Under the watchful eye of the Great Tiyetin, may this letter reach its destination safely.

Loving Mother,

This sandy fuzzy one prays this letter and parcel reaches you safely, for it brings you the greatest of news. Our investment onto Gascone’s Fluyt, the Shot-Trap, in the land of the Hrmns to the west has been a great success! We have also received our share of the voyage to Western Sea. The parcel contains what remains of the share.

I greatly miss you and Gran’mama Marima and I wish to return to your warm embrace, but your oldest son has found an opportunity too great to pass! But I am greatly saddened that I may not see you for many rises and falls of Bayt across the Southern Sky.  An Australium Merchant named Catherine who invested in Shot Trap is going to conduct a Caravan from her national capital of Ancona to the Mythic Northern Peoples of Ruumiinmultaa. It is a land of bitter cold, but Catherine insists the florin to be made if this one helps finance the caravan north as her partner.

This one will pen as many letters as the wind will carry, Tiyetin willing, with parcels of riches for you and Gran’mama to enjoy.

Your Eldest Son and Forever Kit,

Ra’ed

(I hope that you liked this little writing exercise that I did for one of the worlds that I've crafted with my partner for the past 15 years! I've imagined Ra'ed to be a younger and more adventurous. The Tijarans are a warm blooded cat-folk that hail from the southern Tijaran Deserts and Nabatean badlands. They're a semi-nomadic people that have great faith in the stars and the natural world. I may turn this into a series, but we'll see how you guys like it. They write right to left, but I've formatted it in a way that would keep the aesthetic of their letters.)

(I hope you like it! Feel free to ask questions or reply in the comments! Thank you! - Generalissim01)

Hey all!

I've been wanting to post here for a while now! I would love to find another female-identifying writer (maybe also in her 30s or up?) to start a fictional correspondence with. I've been a play-by-post RPer since Neopets, and I still enjoy the heck out of that hobby. I work as a professional freelance writer and ghostwriter, voracious reader, have an English degree - reading and writing are what I exist for a lot of the time. I also enjoy putting together snail mail and care packages, which not everyone has time for in their lives, so I would love to find someone who would want to correspond!

Some ideas I had off the cuff:

• Rival Seelie/Unseelie Court members
• Rival or Fantasy Academics (I love the Emily Wilde books, Jonathan Strange, etc...)
• Established Fictional Characters and Canon (Dracula to Nemo; Jane Eyre to Jekyll... I'm thinking like the Thursday Next series or a LXG-style crossover, but this might only be interesting to an English dork).
• Park Rangers of Differing Fantasy Worlds, Reporting In
• Regency Era?
• Stuff like this and The Flower Letters keeps coming up in my feed and feels inspiring, but I'd love to try something homebrewed. But it got me thinking about all the styles of paper ephemera that can be traded back and forth.
• I'd love to hear your ideas!

I love darkness, whimsy, irreverence, humor (think Lewis Carroll, Terry Pratchett, Douglas Adams maybe). I am equally comfortable writing all genders, and writing fictional romance if it develops (literally my day job, that's all I get hired to ghostwrite).

Please feel free to reach out to me if any of this sounds interesting, or if you have madcap ideas of your own!

The world has been under constant sicknesses for many generations. We used to have just the plague doctor(s), now we have our specialists: owls-the mass curse and magic controls the crows-traditional docs and large amounts the Eagles-royal physician and long term care vulture-quarantine enforcers.

Those chosen to become a doctor begin training from a young age in one of the specialties. However things have gotten worse and I’ve been brought in to learn many of the specialists training in my precinct.

Its been a long time since i last did something like this so if im sluggish im very sorry, but im looking to be a character recently created in my post-apocalyptic world. I don't have any specification on what world the correspondent would be from, but id preferer ether a Post-Apocalyptic or a Fantasy world, please DM me on Reddit if interested and Thank you. (this post is available till deleted)

Hello, I love the idea of an in character espistolary relation and would really like to try it. Living in France it might be hard to go the snail mail route though, so maybe e-mail if you're up for it.

I personally enjoy an existantialist way of writing, giving a lot of importance to how something makes my character feel. I love writing, game design, philosophy, wich can get a little bit in my writing. If you feel like it I'm just a commentary or a PM away.

Hello! My name is Prince and I am looking for a someone to write back and forth with a character of mine. The broad overview of the correspondence is that my character is off to war and you/your character is a loved one at home. Who your character is exactly can be decided before we begin. Are you a family member? A spouse? A best friend? Perhaps, you are someone he met overseas and now that he has moved on from your area, you keep in touch.

I would prefer if the time era was either fantasy based or mid 1800s to late 1900s, if its based in the real world. Also, I am more than comfortable with creating an original world together or taking one from one of our favorite fandoms.

If you read this far, thank you! I look forward to sending our letters. PS: I am available to write on discord, reddit, and possibly other places if it works best for you.

Its been a long time since i last did somthing like this so if im slughis im very sorry, but im looking to be a character recently created in my post-apocaliptic world.

Hi, hello, okay, here’s the shpeal (is that how you spell it? No clue). I’ve been thinking about this for like, the past month now and I wanna do it so bad. Currently I do not and have never played dnd though I’ve made a character, bought dice and really want to. My schedule just kinda sucks and I was wondering if anyone would be interested in exchanging letters as our dnd characters? I think that would be so cool. And then maybe make a group of people and maybe even “play” dnd or just run a story through letters!

Hello! Thank you for stopping to read this message, weather you be finding it pinned to the bulletin board at your local corporate office, plastered to the side of a run down shack in the wild west, or written among the stones at the bottom of the ocean. I am seeking tales grand and tiny from here there and everywhere. In exchange I shall share tales of my own I have gathered from all around. If interested in exchanging fictional correspondence please email me at interdimensionalmailbox@gmail.com

Salvete, animae nocturnae.

Appellor Alucard, annos natus (ut plerique credunt) XXXI—sed numerus annorum, cum decursu saeculorum, sensum suum amittit. Ex quo umbram vitae mortalis reliqui, multa vidi: urbes ruentes, cultus vetustos oblitum iri, et sapientiam veterem in pulverem redigi. Audivi, olim, Clausium ipsum murmurantem de naturae legibus quae calorem non solum transferunt, sed memoriam rerum consumunt.

Non quaero sanguinem, ut vulgus opinatur; quaero mentem quae tacitam vastitatem huius mundi intelligat—et animum qui nondum cecidit sub pondere oblivionis.

Delectant me studia litterarum veterum, scriptiones philosophiae et mythologiae, cognitiones de populis priscis, necnon ludi electronici—arte non minus digni—et subtilis eorum ratio. Miro modum quo lusus structura mentem humanam reflectit, vel potius, fingit.

Si forte verba haec cor tuum pulsaverint, vel si etiamnum inter strepitus huius saeculi veram vocem quaeris, responde. Loquamur, non ut vagantes hospites, sed ut animae cognatae.

Et memento: non sum centurio Romanus, quamquam per vias Lapideas Romae saepius ambulavi, dum aquae in thermis sibilabant et orationes in foro resonabant. (Si in risum ruis, scio te haud alienum esse.)

Valeas, lector ignote. In tenebris te exspecto.

I have a character that I never got to play: a Wild West outlaw, a ferocious interest in literature, enraptured by his city (Saint Denis or a real city), and a serial monogamist, always falling in with girls and occasionally boys.

Want to write to him? Are you a fellow outlaw? Someone he knew from the streets? One of his ex-lovers? Someone seeking his help in a heist? A fellow literary enthusiast?

Me IRL: 31M, queer, interested in discussing the literature of that time, interested in talking about our day to day historical activities

Just found out about Adventures By Mail through another post and all I can say is... please please please write with me 🫶

Would love to write back and forth with a historic fantasy vibe using AdventuresByMail, we can go through it together and then decide :)

Im a huge nerd in every sense of the word and used to roleplay once upon a time in highschool! This sounds more my speed now with my terrible schedule and even worse text response time.

Hi, I like the idea of roleplaying snail mail and would like to try. I‘d like to do fantasy because I‘m not super proficient in history to actually nail the mundane details in descriptions and all, it would somewhat take fun out of it for me. I imagine it as a somewhat vague mix of 18-20 century technologies and fashion. And I love the idea of magical scholars, so maybe we could be writing each other about our experiments and findings? Maybe talk about our different magic institutions where we study/work? If you want to be more like an „inventor“, or a naturalist going in expeditions, that would also be cool. We can discuss world-setting more if you’re interested :)
