Rekindling a Love: (Of RP-ing)

So I used to roleplay a few years back and liked it. Then life got in the way, and I've changed a lot personally, and I would like to get back into a story to stimulate my mind, get some creative juices flowing, and see how my personal life changes affect my writing.

More recently, I've become sort of obsessed with Phantom of the Opera but it got on my nerves that the ugly guy had to be evil, and hell, even when the "ugly" protagonist was a great, talented guy, (Hunchback of Notre Dame) he still didn't get the girl. So I would like to do a version of one of those stories the way I would have written it, with a happier ending and such.

I usually write fantasy or sci-fi. I will do slice-of-life/modern if there is a fantasy/sci-fi twist. For instance, I once combined a "typical highschool rp" with a sci-fi Gattaca-like setting, and it worked out pretty well.

So, in short.

List of Ideas (All works mentioned are just starting points, I'm too lazy to properly stick to a fandom so I avoid using them and just take ideas.)
- Phantom of the Opera*
- Hunchback of Notre Dame*
*Note: For years I've wondered what those would be like in a sci-fi setting instead of 15th or 19th century respectively. But either setting works, or a new one is fine too.
- Dystopian Fiction: (i.e. 1984, Gattaca, Brave New World, Hunger Games)
- Master x Slave/servant
- Insane asylum
- Space Traders/Smugglers (Firefly-style)
- Government school for "gifted" children/teens that turns out to be evil


If you have any other even mildly related ideas, please let me know and I will at least consider them.

I have decent grammar, but I do make mistakes. Furthermore, I would like to give/receive between 1-3 paragraphs per post.

Mind doing a Hunchback of Notre Dame/GATTACA-esque RP with me?

I'd love to! Two of my favorite movies/stories. Did you have any other ideas about where we would go with it?

Not entirely sure. Perhaps a disabled god-child having presiding over a menial but important part of a space station, since space travel seems so common?

So, we could go with hundreds of years in the future, with the space station as a major trading and refueling point for travelers. The initial information is that he was left there as an infant and taken in by the owner of the station? Sort of our "Frollo"-like character? Maybe he even kept him there realizing that it was years of free labor from someone that no one would ever miss, being an in-valid and all. Most of the systems are automated, but he oversees most of the machinery's day-to-day operation, Subspace communications, life support, etc.

I'm really rusty, so tell me if you don't like any of the ideas.

If you are still looking, I would love a space smuggling/Firefly-esque role play.

That sounds great, but that will be my last one. I have 3 that are in planning now. I think I should close this thread and switch planning to pm with each of you.

Thanks all. VM or PM me if you like my ideas and I will keep you on the backburner if I decide to extend my number of running stories.
