The Girl On The Bridge - No Genre, No Plot but 100% Serious
The Girl On The Bridge
Create any kind of character you can imagine. Bend the story any way you'd like.
Create
Players attempt to craft bizarre and unique characters. Think: Real life superhero psychopaths, time traveling gimps, junky nuns, alien scientists, ghostly apparitions of dead celebrities and talking dogs. For this RP, the stranger the better.
Conflict
Players partner up or go solo in an attempt to write conflicting story lines and layer multiple universes on top of one another.
For example: (The Story will absolutely without a doubt always start with the girl on the bridge.)
Player 1: The girl on the bridge pulls herself up onto the bars, Preparing to kill herself. She jumps.
Player 2: Psychopath drove down the highway with the unconscious bodies of two Asian tourists in the boot. To his surprise a girl falls from the sky and collides with his windscreen causing him to swerve off the road and crash, Releasing the boot compartment's lock.
Player 3: Junky Nun is watching her favorite fictional television show, 'The Girl On The Bridge' and eating popcorn. She's tuned in just as two Asian tourists wriggle from the wreckage of a Psychopath's car and run off down the motor way.
Player 4: Mandy the humanoid maggot sat in a bowl of popcorn enjoying her life when suddenly she was plucked up into the air and swallowed by Junky Nun. She's now in a strange new world and hopes to find her way out right away but realizes it will be a treacherous journey.
Harmonize
Players allow each other to directly effect each other's story lines with their own character's choices, ultimately leading to the synchronization of each plot.
For Example:
Player 3: Junky Nun decides to finish watching her favorite show high on heroin and shoots up.
Player 1: The girl from the bridge is shocked to discover she's alive and thanks the universe for sparing her life.
Player 2: Psychopath is furious with the girl and kills her.
Player 4: Mandy the humanoid maggot is in for a tough ride as Junky Nun introduces heroin to her body. Mandy's epic battle against heroin is long and difficult but she eventually slays the beast and crawls out into freedom threw Junky Nun's eye.
Player 3: Junky Nun awakes with a shudder. It feels like someone has fought a war inside her body and so she decides to give up heroin. She realizes she accidentally missed the final part of 'The Girl On The Bridge'. Luckily she has Sky+ and rewinds the footage.
Player 1: The girl is amazed to be granted yet another second chance by the universe. This time she is prepared for the Psychopath and kills him instead.
Player 2: The Psychopath wishes he had never been born.
Player 5: Jerry the inter-dimensional Genie grants the Psychopath's wish!
