So this is the absolute vaguest Interest Check I have ever done and it squirms in my gut to actually do it, but I just will not be bothered to use my quite sparse free-time fleshing out a whole great deal if there is not even any interest in the general concept.

Yeah.

So I figured it'd be something along the lines of a plane crashing or a ship sinking an our characters being the sole survivors that managed to get to an island assumed to be uninhabited. As time passes and they explore they find "mythical" creatures and/or some shit.

The main focus in the first "part" will be survival and then, once they've set up a camp and stuff, the weird shit starts happening.

I'm terribly sorry for this. I WILL make a proper Interest Check (and so on) if this gets some attention, but I really just don't want to waste the little time I do have one something that won't happen.

My plan is for the main characters to be boring old humans, yes.

Interested! I love the possibilities this concept brings, and the roleplaying style you're looking for is right up my alley. (Also, I love your vague description so far lol)

Hey, @byteoflogic, this looks like something you'd like, as well. :D

I'm glad to see that the concept of the concept of the roleplay is generating so much interest. Hopefully, you will alk still be interested when I get a proper Interest Check up.

Thank you for not hating on my vague idea I'll get to work right away.

Just want to let y'all know that progress is going a bit more slowly than anticipated, but I expect the new Interest Check to be up in the beginning of next week.

So, life's kicking my ass right now and stuff, so progress is a bit slow in the making of the new and official Interest Check (and OOC), but I am making some progress. I won't set a new time, but I will make this happen.

There will be "treasure", yes. just not in the "pirate buried his gold and gems here" type of way, but more like ancient artifacts and shit like that, that won't really be buried, but just, you know, hidden by time.
As briefly mentioned, there will be some mythical/magical/fantasy elements to this, including, but not limited to merpeople, magical relics, ancient deities and chimera.

@The Mad Hatter Ah, I getcha. Cursed treasure, the best kind of treasure. You know it's valuable because someone went to the effort of cursing it.

Hmm, this one caught my eye. Humans ... cross genre (mundane going into fantasy setting). If we get to the point of making characters, it will help me to know the specifics of the trip (ship, starting point, intended destination - unless it was a cruise, etc). I might do an older character ... middle aged.

I'm giving my wholehearted interest... islands with more than meets the eye... potential myth and magic... it's perfect. I kind of want to be the stereotypical 'person who knows all about what they're running into' character... mostly because I love ancient civilisations IRL, too. Greek, Roman, Chinese, Egyptian, Aztec, all that stuff.

I have been working on an idea pretty much exactly this, but I wasn't looking forward to GMing it as much as playing.

I am so down!

Actually, my initial and only thought about that so far was for the ship to go through the so-called "Bermuda Triangle". There's always been this idea that the place is cursed/haunted/whatever and I wanted to play with that idea.

If you want, you can probably help me by showing me the stuff you have done? I could get inspired and/or rip you off completely.

@The Mad Hatter Collaboration with your players is a great way to write your RP. Plus I know a few things about the Triangle, so you've only drawn me deeper.

I agree.

Everyone who wants to submit ideas and/or help out in other ways are free to send me a PM. I have a shitbucket-load of stuff to write (as well as taking care of my kids, doing my "job" and making preparations for my wedding in 2 weeks) so I could certainly use some help.

.:EDIT:.
After giving it a bit of thought, I think I've decided that the ship should be leaving Florida and heading towards Europe; specifically France.
