Based on the game Oxenfree. However, no prior knowledge is needed.






Plot

You awaken to a starry night on the beach, warm sand beneath you and the sound of waves crashing endlessly against the shore. Your friends's laughter and the crackling of the bonfire is but a dull buzz at the back of your head. Everything is a blur, but as you struggle to remember the last few hours, you see visions... glimpses of desperate faces behind tinted glass, the remainder of a wreckage scattered on the ocean floor—an explosion, a multitude of voices begging for more time.

A wave of panic threatens to pull you under, but before you know it, your friend is passing you a bottle of soda and wondering why you look sick. It all comes back to you. You are at a party on Edwards Island, and yet, something feels off...

It feels as if you've done this all before.

Edwards Island


It used to house military bases, but is now an abandoned island (Present RP Time = 2015). During the second world war, a submarine called the Kanaloa was sunk via friendly fire, and ever since, strange occurrences have been happening on the island.
What's happening?

  • Ghostly appearances
  • Strange time loops

Where do you come in?

We'll be playing a group of friends who head to the island for a party. Unfortunately, they find themselves stuck in a time loop. At first things will be hazy and unclear, but as the RP progresses they become more aware of the wibbly wobbly time stuff and embark on quest to solve the mystery surrounding the sinking of the Kanaloa and the deaths of the 85 officers and 12 passengers.

What am I looking for?

  • A small group consisting of a maximum of five people (Not first come first serve)
  • People who enjoy brainstorming with their fellow RPers
  • People who can post every few days or so
  • People who are aware of Quality > Quantity





Anyone interested ^^? I promise I won't bite. Just be nice and we'll be good pals.

@Lexicon

Wonderful ^^! At the moment I'm debating on whether to have them be childhood friends or not. It'll depend on what the majority wants, I suppose, but I'm thinking they'll either be a bunch of high schoolers who just graduated or college kids.

My two cents, for what it's worth, would be college kids who're also childhood friends. Maybe freshmen or sophomores?

EDIT: Also, I hope you don't mind that I might not be able to post more than once or twice a week. I work full time and have other commitments, but I'll try my best to keep up.

I like the sound of college kids who are also childhood friends xD, and I'll probably be aiming for two posts a week per person or so.

@luclovers

Awesome, thanks for the interest!

Awesome :D! Thank you for the interest. And Oxenfree was a fun experience, I kind of wish it was longer though, haha. Just a heads up this RP will probably have some spoilers here and there.

Awesome :D! Thanks for the interest, guys. The OOC thread should be up by Monday or Tuesday.

And if you like Life is Strange or Until Dawn, then I definitely recommend Oxenfree.

Hello! I would like to apologize for the lack of updates. I got sick and had to miss school for the rest of the week. I'm currently still at home, but am doing better now. I have missed several exams though and will be spending most of next week catching up with those missed tests and lessons. I'll be heading back to the dorm on Sat so things will probably be a tad busy for me. But I'm still here and I apologize for the silence! Anyways, I hope you guys have been doing better than I have xD
