So, I've been playing Tales of Xillia pretty religiously for the past two and a half months, pretty cool if you ask me. Probably the best in the series if you want my opinion. And I absorbed it's lore like a sponge. So, because of all these feelings I got from game itself, why not an rp based around it?
My favorite thing about ToX was the versatility of a character's skills. So I'm not going to be strict about character creation here due to the vast amounts of lore I could spend days writing about.
"But why is Sly Cooper mentioned if you are just talking about Tales of Xillia?"
Well, I've been playing the main series for years and also wanted to do something based around that, and much to my surprise, I've played the newest entry in the series, and I like where this next trilogy is going.
So I thought "Why not have some non-canon fun in other exotic places around the world with other quirky characters?"
In short, this one is very hit and miss due to it's already robustly established plot. Because of how robust it is, there is much more freedom to be had here with senseless violence to heroic deeds to other sorts of anti-heros.
What is very unique about Sly Cooper as a series, it combines a bit or Noir, as well as Magic in some places. (Not lying. There is quite literally magic through the original trilogy. Could even list where.) And because of this factor, it could lead to very interesting sets of characters and gangs. But that really depends on you guys.
My only concern is the majority of the cast is anthropomorphic people in the Sly Cooper franchise. I might make tweaks if people want a human or a hybrid like character. Or Characters.
So... Interested? Anything you wish to contribute? Leave a comment if so. Or leave a comment if you have questions about either of these.
