Out in a rural town, on a cold winter night, three children wandered out into the snow. Dressed in costume to celebrate and honor nature and the mythical forces around them, they heard a spine chilling scream out there in the snow. But it was what the children would see that changed their lives forever. What haunted them, forever.
So! Just to get an interest check, I want to see who's interested in a story revolving around three children that . . .
witness a supernatural being known as the infamous Krampus. Usually he only appears to those he is taking/murdering. But the children, hearing the scream and following it, see this horrible act in front of them. And he notices. This causes him to mark them, which in return changes their lives forever. They run and find safety with a local. Only to find out that Krampus will not stop pursuing the children until they are either dead or captured. Even if he takes many other victims before then, he will never forget their scent or their faces. He will eventually track them down and kill them.
Sympathetic to the children's fate, someone intervenes in their fate and sends them on their way to try and have a small feeble chance of surviving. Due their mark of death and experiences with magic, they begin to see and do things they never could have before. They can see, for example, a Domovoi, or house spirit, seen only by those that will soon perish. By running and learning more about magic, the children mature quickly-almost supernaturally-and slowly begin to empower themselves more and more.
Now bond together not only through friendship but a death pact with Krampus himself, the children must endure horrid monsters and demons as they try to escape his reach, as they try to empower themselves.
No matter how far they must run.
No matter how hard they must fight.
They must continue.
Or else . . .
The children will share newfound senses, and each have their own unique abilities based on their personality and costumes. They will will gradually over time become something other than human. And they will face many horrific monsters and demons on their path. We can accelerate time if necessary, but basically I want the characters to get wrapped up in battles and investigations involving Russian and other mythological creatures.
This can be a group roleplay of 3-4 players (a friend could be added in the story, maybe not directly marked).
It can also be a two player roleplay with multiple characters played.
Let me know if you are interested and I can share more info, such as creature and plot ideas!
We can also brainstorm together as well.
I really see the story starting out simple and broad and elaborating more and more on the creatures as the story goes.
I'm new to the site so I'm going to add a few notes as to what I'm looking for requirement wise

Notes
-I consider myself a decent writer and although I don't mind writing with various different writing levels, I do expect paragraph (never less than one) responses and proper grammar, spelling, punctuation, etc.
-Basic roleplay rules apply, such as no god-modding
-Fair player response time; as in, let everyone have a turn before continuing a rotation unless the story or player dictates.
