A roleplay set in the Ar Tonelico setting (Ar Ciel). It's a post-apocalyptic setting whose centerpiece is a massive tower/reality-warping supercomputer called Ar Tonelico, with the rest of the planet covered by a sea of plasma the Sea of Death.

So, while the setting isn't original, the interesting thing about the roleplay is the way the world works and how that factors into a roleplay format. Players can play a normal human, or a Reyvateil, which are a race of females with the ability to cast magic via singing (interfacing with Ar Tonelico). Their magic is potentially very strong, but takes time to cast, and Reyvateils are generally vulnerable when singing song magic, making protection necessary in combat.

Magic isn't obtained by your usual level-up, however, but instead, through a process known as 'Diving' where a human dives into a Reyvateil's mind (Cosmosphere) and resolve instances of metaphorical conflicts that reflect their real-life insecurities and mental scars. Diving is a fairly intimate process that requires mutual trust. In a successful dive, the Reyvateil walks away as a girl changed for the better (generally speaking, having your traumas and insecurities cured makes you a better person) and new song magic that usually reflects what happens in their mind/Cosmosphere. The Diver learns more of the Reyvateil; given a male diver, love spouting from this sort of relationship isn't exactly rare, nor frowned upon.

Now, that's enough exposition about the world. You might be thinking, "it's great for a 1x1 roleplay" and you're exactly right. However, the setting can also work in a normal roleplay. Since Diving sessions are inherently 1x1, it would be done through PM, and the GM manages the song magic that might came out from it (preventing instances of game-changing songs from being crafted). When a diving session is concluded, the entire excerpt may be posted in the OOC or edited into an IC post, preventing other players from missing out.

I really want to participate in a roleplay with this setting, but I've never GM'd before.

A roleplay in a highschool setting. Or any setting, actually.

It revolves around a mobile phone game and the dice it gives as its rewards. You can roll dice and use the resulting number to upgrade your 'stats'. Making yourself more intelligent, athletic and maybe even possessing supernatural powers might be possible.

I had this idea a while ago but I couldn't get it to work then (15 posts in before it ultimately died). It's failure was possibly due to my preference to being in a more advisory position as opposed to full GM.

It probably needs striping down and rewording, but I think the general premise of a NightVale/Twin Peaks scary Caribbean island, and a group of kids having paranormal adventures on that island, is a pretty good one.

(I'd totally like to be involved if someone actually DID manage to revive it.)

A Mixture of Watch Dogs and Gotham/Metropolis with the group playing the hackers in an attempt to clean up the city without the heroes there to help them be them underneath the notice of the heroes, the heroes not existing, or whatever be it. The group's objective being to take out higher ranking members of the crime syndicates since the justice system doesn't seem to want to.

Here's an idea that follows 3 storylines which are suppose to eventually converge.

It is called 'Alpha&Omega', and is a sci-fi roleplay set in the far future. The Alliance has occupied much of the galaxy and passes laws and regulations that allow them to maintain a strict hold over their domains. Then there's the Federation, who despise the Alliance and wish to remain independent, but they banded together once before to stand against the Alliance.

There's a planet called Corvais, and it is rich in resources and is very important because its system acts as a gateway to either side of space; it is like Constantinople/Istanbul in space. The Alliance and Federation fought over Corvais long ago in what is now known as the 'Corvais Wars'.

About 1/4th of the galaxy is known as 'Deadzone', which no one controls and is only partially explored. This is where thugs, slavers, gangsters, mercenaries, and other vile beings make their home.

The three stories are:
1. Omega Squad: Group of rag-tag bounty hunters, thugs, assassins, and criminals who try to stop 'something' in Deadzone. Custom characters.
2. Alpha Squad: Highly skilled advanced team of veterans. Colton is the squad leader, has a jetpack, likes to use pistols and assault rifles. Lex Stratus is a scout, is intelligent, and likes to use a semi-automatic scout rifle. Wolf is a mute and likes to use sniper rifles, but he's also an expert martial artist and collects knives. Finally, Rigs is the heavy weapons specialist and demolitionist.
3. A Council in the Alliance that tries to stave off a war between the Alliance and the Federation, debating and arguing with each other. They can call in their assets: Alpha Squad, to handle specific situations. They also hire Omega Squad to deal with matters within Deadzone. Whatever they agree on is what Omega Squad and Alpha Squad end up doing.

I have an idea that isn't fully developed, It's called Kaiju Fighters
The idea is that it's like Attack on Titan, except it's a bunch of people taking down giant monsters that attack with variouse powers
If anyone wants to take it and develop it further that would be awesome! But I would request that you keep it casual or free

Rough draft for a multiverse RP.



Just really some idle concept. Meant to be a character based advanced RP. May try it later, but it's so underdeveloped and poorly thought out now i'm holding off on it. Mainly because I don't think I imagined enough horrible things to throw at people and just lack the time. If someone else makes this I may not play it since I don't really trust other people to go with the concept properly (like they may make the multiverse too skewed towards one genre they like) since this RP requires a really creative GM to pull off right. I don't even know if i'm creative enough even. Maybe a system of collective GMing may work for this sort of RP?

Also spoiler alert:



Something I tried repeatedly, but didn't happen.

*Note: May have played with the dates on the timeline in quoted post.

It took 400 years just to increase IQ and change someone's eye and hair colors?!

Those are some really lazy biotech firms lol.

That being said, a nation RP in a VR complex where magic is actually reality hacking could be cool.

Reminds me of an idea I had for Matrix like RP where they know they are in a VR but can't get out because the system has agents and other programs to stop them from escaping. Basically, the people inside can add/remove files from the limited amount of storage space in their brain, including hacked interface programs like aim bots and even respawn code, but no one has made it to an exit yet, as they are too well protected and there are decoy exits.

Interstellar War:

In 2032 Earth is attacked by a ship from another world without cause. The military somehow learns the location of their homeworld, and a colonial ship, one designed to take people and embryos to a distant world at a speed of 0.81c so that they can colonize it, is crewed by military personnel and sent to their world to take the fight to them.
We were "born" aboard that vessel from the embryos it carries. Our entire life has been spent in ultra-realistic VR training for the assault. After more than thirty years, we are now arriving on the planet. When we land we discover one thing that we didn't expect: they're human.

I started it
