I have a character named Vaughn Espenson who kills for his art. The process goes like this: he thinks up an idea for his art, seeks out the perfect subject, stalks them, kills them, and uses their body as the main subject in his piece. Then he paints the victim after taking various photos before getting rid of the body. He is socially awkward and lives in an old townhouse he inherited from his grandmother.

I have a few ideas for a roleplay! Possibly, your character could catch him in the act and he captures them - not to kill them since he is not the subject of his art, but to find out what to do with a potential witness. Perhaps your character could be a sick and twisted fan of his considering he posts his art pictures on the dark web for others go see? Maybe you two are even going after the same victim and have a truce. Your character could also be a friend (likely his only friend) and not know of the killing he does until they stumble across undeniable evidence. If you have more ideas besides these tho, lemme know! Whatever the basis is, I am totally open (and kinda hoping~) a relationship between the characters developes and they end up hooking up.
