Lil bit of a heads up; I live in a UTC+8 time zone, so my waking hours are often vastly different from most people so my posts may be a little infrequent at least in your day.

Imagine having lived in darkness, living in a world full of unknown voices, plagued by monstrous creatures that only you can see, having your body stolen from you time and time again, having each day spent in a delirious drug filled haze, strapped down for your 'own good'. Abandoned by hope and any chance at redemption the moment you were born, left behind by those who were supposed to be the closest to you. By your own sanity. Until....the day you wake up in your room, not your hospital bed, not the padded walls of your cell nor the cold steel of your solitary confinement. An actual bedroom, with walls full of things that you might have collected as a child if you had a childhood.

The world seems clearer, brighter. It makes sense. Perhaps that horrible nightmare was really just a nightmare. Or perhaps not.

There exists many underground projects, some under the government and others not. One of them seemed to have made the breakthrough of the century, but test subjects are scarce. That's why they've taken you. Someone that no one will miss. They couldn't have insane delusional monsters running around though, so of course they had to do a few adjustments. The trade is simple. Your sanity for your humanity. The mind of a person for the body of a monster. Though as sane as you are now, it doesn't mean they're going to treat you any better than guinea pigs. Insanity isn't so easily stopped either and sometimes, it's more dangerous than you think. Would you turn back to it?

It's sort of a mish-mash of science and a bit of possible fantasy if not delusion. Ah, anyway, basically a group of mental patients are 'cured' and given powers of mutations, it's free range on that as long as it's not overpowered. For as overpowered a power, the greater the weakness or strain of using it. I don't want no damn Mary or Gary sues ruling the world.

I'm looking for test subjects and anyone willing to play the scientists at the place, maybe some who grow to pity these new strange beings. Not gonna lie, it's all very physiological, surreal. Ah, I'm no good with words, did I bore you ? If anyone is still alive and interested, you know what to do.

Now looking for more scientists.

Great! I'm looking for about 4-5 people so we only need two more.

PLEASE, anyone out there, there is a hungry little roleplay that needs some loving role players to take care of it :<

Yay!!! Now roleplayerhood is a scary thing, it's difficult to raise a good roleplay. Anyway, a lil more info, it's pretty open right now, mutations can range from gene splicing with animals to mental and physical superpowers. You can go crazy, literally. You could even bring in characters from shows; say Harry potter was only ever hallucinating his life as a wizard and suddenly awakes to find out that it was just a lie. Have them freak out over false memories and all.

I want scientists and researchers to have just as rich a part, questioning if what they're doing is right, forming bonds with fellow researchers or even the test subjects over time.

A central part of this roleplay will be 'The Madness', the sort of creeping insanity that threatens to overcome characters if not treated regularly and painfully. It's your decision whether to give into it or be a test subject. All subjects found unsuitable for testing shall be terminated on immediate notice. All attempts at escape will be punished, harshly. So, since I want everyone to have a part in this, any suggestions or inputs before I make an ooc?

So to summarize everything you've said (just so I know what I'm talking about):

Some of us are scientists, some of us are subjects.

Subjects are being experimented on for [unknown purpose] and gain special abilities (I suppose they could be disabilities as well).

Abilities/disabilities can be just about anything as long as we can make it sound legit.

Subjects' behavior is being studied in a "normal" environment.

Kinda vague, I want to know exactly the purpose of the scientists doing the testing, what are they trying to achieve? Cancer cure? Superior human race? Forced evolution?
Perhaps they are using the subjects for different purposes. I'm assuming that most of the POV will be from the subjects, so we don't necessarily have to know the motivations of the scientists, but part of the story would be trying to find that out I assume. I also assume that the test subjects will have no context of life outside of the "lab" or whatever it is they're being held in, either they've forgotten it or were artificially grown.

It's an intriguing concept, I did a similar RP a few years back about escaped laboratory experiments. It might be fun to try again.

Well to answer your well asked questions, most research would be as dumb as it sounds 'for the sake of science', experimenting with the experimental in hopes that it can be used for various other purposes, like when they cloned a rat or first considered stem cells. So it would be a little vague the purpose, but essentially these are government funded projects so legally, the scientists are not doing anything wrong, adding more morale dilemma to the conscienceness.

Also, it's not certain that a test subject will have forgotten the outside world. They did have a life outside when they were clinically insane. It's up to you whether they were living in some sort of complete fantasy world and suddenly wake up to this strangeness or they grew up 'normal' to a certain age before going mad or they had a concept of the normal world, but were plagued by hallucinations or voices that made normal life unbearable. It all relies on the fact that the rest subjects were insane at one point.

Sorry if it's a little vague,I'm not the best on explaining my thoughts.

Hmm... I visited this earlier, but paid little attention to it. Now, it's started to catch my eye a bit. I'll give it a chance and give it my interest.

Eek! It's a spah!!! (Sorry, just had to.)
This is so great!! 7 people if I counted right. Please ask any urgent questions now and start thinking of your roles. If some people would play a scientist or double as one that would be appreciated :3

Will "The Madness" have a supernatural/lovecraftian quality to it?

Hey guys, I don't think I'm going to be able to do this right now after all. I bit off too much I can chew. Life in general is busy right now.

I'm really sorry guys. :(

Aw, thanks for showing interest anyway. I hope you aren't too busy with life. Have a good day!

I'm still debating that currently, I guess it depends on how the roleplay flows and all, I may hold a poll for that as well in the ooc.
