I like the tone of the original post, is that the sort of vibe you're sticking with? In terms of humour etc.? Potentially interested!

@Tlaloc

I definitely like a more lighthearted vibe, so you can expect that to stick around.

Regarding differences from the original:

I'm in pretty early planning stages, I also don't remember how much of the plot was common knowledge. So I might spoil some of the original idea on accident here, but I'm kind of gutting the plot(sorry @Maiden of Mist if you turn up to see this) to make it more my style.

A few changes I'm specifically considering:

Originally the students were going to arrive to discover that they are alone, cannot escape, and the school is much more sinister than expected. I don't think they will be completely alone in my version. There will be some kind of authority, but it might just be a handful of priestesses or something of the like. There probably won't be formal classes in the way you would expect from a typical academy roleplay, regardless.

I'm also toying with the idea of putting the academy in a more populated location, instead of in an inaccessible middle-of-nowhere. But I also have some #reasons why I might not, it depends on where I land on a few internal plot details.

If there is a town or whatever, your character would be forbidden from it and would have to sneak out, for which there may very well be consequences.

If you have preferences about setting, plot, or themes, or even suggestions, this is a good time to bring them up, when I haven't solidified anything yet.

By that same token, though: I'm not 100% in on this yet, I want to have my plot nice and straight in my mind and I just don't yet. Not trying to put a damper on things, I just don't want to get people excited just to disappoint them.

Justice League - The Unlimited Protocol

Just updating, I probably won't be joining this one after all, but if something comes to me I'll let you know.

Bit of a mention blast here.

I'm considering running this one(I received permission from the GM way back in the day, as noted in an edit to the opening post).

It probably won't have the original intended plot as the original, and I would absolutely be looking for a dedicated co-GM to help hash out plots and keep things on track. I do want to keep the vibe pretty similar, though.

The people mentioned are not the only ones welcome to chime in if there's interest, I just wanted to let them know.

I'll make my own interest check if I decide I want to move forward.

Justice League - The Unlimited Protocol

I'm thinking about it, but I don't have a character in mind just yet.

Dreaming Together With You - A Fading Memory Experiment

I've been away from the guild for a while, for which I'm sorry. It sounds like this isn't gonna keep going, but if it crops back up, I'll have my eyes on it.

Sanctuary Hills

No worries, Fading.

Sorry I've been so absent, I've been trying to help Novice get squared away, but in the end this roleplay just wasn't right for them, so they are no longer a part of it.

I'll try to get some stuff posted to move things along and add some more interest, but I'll probably wait for Fading.

~ Skate Camp ~

I plan on having a fictional celebrity that routinely shows up to garner up promotional support for the event and for the park itself to continue.

@Deja

Any chance this role is open to players? I have a character I've been trying to use for a while.

He's the front man for a successful pop-punk band. I think it could be fun(and also very anime, if we're looking for that vibe)if he came in initially as kind of a diva/asshole type, only here for the appearance fee. But he falls in love with the place, and sticks around.

What do you think?

Sanctuary Hills

You know what, this should be a PM.

@Writing Novice

I certainly don't mind offering pointers! I'm busy at work just now, so depending on work load I may or may not get around to reading everything(and that goes for everyone, I haven't read Kalan or Fading's posts yet either) but I'm expecting to get on the computer tonight, catch up, and make replies where appropriate(though I may or may not have anything to add in the IC yet).

Oh fuck, that was all one run on sentence. First writing tip is don't do that.

Sanctuary Hills

@small frog

Yeah, we're totally accepting characters!

So the character concept is great as a whole, but I need to clarify: did you mean the graveyard at the school, or one in town? We haven't brought up a graveyard for the town as a whole, but the one at the school isn't active, it's only used by the school for necromancy classes.

If they work for the local funeral home, that's perfectly reasonable. It's a small town, though, so the job is probably a lot of groundskeeping and not a lot of mortuary assisting. But that might be really interesting for the character, I imagine it's frustrating for someone who is trying to get relevant work experience.

If you include a funeral home/graveyard in your character, I'll add it to the town lore, so you have a little creative power here, if you want it.

And you've got the right idea about the magical medicine, it's gruelling course of study, one of the most complex forms of magic. I think I'll probably write some kind of blurb about it in the lore section.
