Jurassic Weeb Iris's Indomitable Thief

Banned Seen 12 mos ago

A while back I had an idea for a FLCL spinoff revolving around Ninamori as an exchange student. However I want to do a non-fandom version. The plot:

Aurora Falls, Minnesota. Population: 134, precisely. Barely anyone passes through, so nobody notices that something weird is always happening. Well, almost nobody. A few years back a senior at Aurora Falls Highschool founded the Paranormal Investigation Club to deal with these things. On the outside they seem to just be a bunch of kids fascinated with cryptids, monsters, aliens, and demons. But the small group of kids is all that stands between Aurora Falls and any threat out there.


Aurora Falls is by no means a normal town. Nobody here is. Well, almost nobody. Here's a list of NPCs I'll be using to control the plot.

- Sheriff Brady: Aurora Falls' police chief. He's a good man, but absolutely blind to the bizarre things that happen around town. Fir the most part he's worried about the (nonexistent) threat presented by "them damn border-jumpers"... better known to everyone else as Canadians.
- Professor Johannes Kugge: A retired scientist and inventor, Kugge is brilliant in the field of robotics. He teaches metal-working at the local highschool, but is rarely seen around town since he's in his garage/lab.
- Harry Hu: A geneticist who went to UCLA, Hu claims to be the inspiration for the book "Jurassic Park" by Michael Crichton. However he works in Aurora Falls for the US government.
- Johnny Soho: A man in his fifties, Soho was the inspiration for the song "Werewolves of London". Every full moon he transforms into his werewolf form. However, rather than prey on helpless livestock or teenagers out on lovers' lane, he drops by the local bar for enough steak n' shrimp to feed a small village in Africa.
- The Kasai Family: The owners of the only Asian restaurant in town, the Kasai family has never given a definitive answer on their ancestry. But not many people ask, since they serve Chinese, Japanese, Vietnamese, and Thai Monday through Saturday, and a Mongolian grill on Sunday. However everyone-- Mom, Dad, their daughter Sakura, and baby boy Shizi-- is a neko.
- Rorie: Lake Aurora's resident lake monster. Rorie seems to have some relation to Harry Hu. Normally quite peaceful, Rorie hates it when someone catches a fish he's after.


So kind of a long post. I was thinking the RP would be episodic-- first arc revolves around one NPC, another the next. Before anyone asks, there can be characters with unique powers and abilities (ie- telepathy, limited telekinesis). Seeing as how we have nekos, werewolves, and a lake monster, your character doesn't have to be fully human.

Seems interesting! How will the superpowers work? Will the characters start off fairly weak?

@DizzyRenegade Fairly, assuming that the character has a power. For example, the character I wrote for the FLCL version had the ability to pulverize and shape his bones into weapons (bone blades, club fists, etc.), and reform them back into normal bones. For the RP, it would start out basic, such as claws, and progress from there. Additionally, for the sake of the RP, characters with similar abilities would have to know about what they're doing (in my character's case, studying human anatomy).

I might be interested. I already have a character in mind even.. As long as living skeletons with fire powers would fit in. If not, I'm still interested, I'd just need a little more direction. :P

HOLY FUCK IS THIS STILL OPEN.

This is PERFECT. Sorta reminds me of one of those hip new western animes. Gravy Fools? I forgot. Never watched it though, even if I should.

In any case, totally up for this yo. As long as I can be a friendly skeleton who's a businessman. I'm fine if I can't be a skeleton businessman, but I'd love to play something like that. Y'know, comedy relief but he's still useful, since he's a businessman. And a skeleton. He can support people in multiple ways!

Edit: hahahah ADP and myself are doing similar things it seems. Might not do skeleton businessman then, don't want to make it weird.

Although, they could be bonebros. I mean we're friends, me and ADP. It'd fit, right?

Edit2: AH SHIT I JUST REMEMBERED. Kids can't be businessmen! Nor skeletons! Fuck... I'll think of something!

@ADParis He might need some kind of disguise. Have you seen the film "Bicentennial Man"? Or perhaps heard the song "Mr. Roboto"?
@LHG100 Please take your time. I'd like characters that are as unique as possible. :)
@DizzyRenegade It depends on the crowd we'll have. However, I'm thinking one or two paragraphs would be good.

@Dead Cruiser Now we're talking! Just no probing people. XD
@OppositionJ Alright!

I might be able to get the OoC up tomorrow, if my schedule allows it. If all goes well, we should get the story started around Sarurday-ish.
