Seeking fans of the ONE PIECE anime/manga, which is the only major requirement I have (if you love the show I'm sure we'll get along fine).
The Set Up: The roleplay begins to two ONE PIECE fans hanging out and talking about their love for manga/anime; maybe they imagine what they would have done in one of the Straw Hat Pirate's shoes, or they have their own theory over what the coveted "One Piece" really might be. From their ordinary world these two fans of the world find themselves transported, seemingly without rhyme or reason, into East Blue where they have to use their knowledge of the manga to survive if they ever hope to return home (who knows, they might not even want to). At the moment I'm thinking the story starts one year after Luffy begins his adventure, meaning, if our character's are quick, they could one day hope to join up with the Straw Hats somewhere in the two-year time-skip. An alternative to this could be "What if the Straw Hat Pirates never existed?" with our characters having to fill the vacuum that only they know needs to be filled.
Our Characters: Since this has our ordinary characters going from the real world into the manga-style ONE PIECE, they would most likely start as very ordinary in East Blue too, and through their struggles they'll fight to become worthy One Piece characters.
On Devil Fruit Abilities: I aim to invent as little as possible in this roleplay in terms of World-Building. The only Devil Fruit abilities which can be used must have appeared in One Piece at some point; although there is room to be inventive with using an ability in ways the show hadn't explored, or maybe you feel a certain Devil Fruit ability was wasted on a small-time character.
Requirements:
1. We'll need to work together to figure out how to best make a minimum of one post per day really count towards moving the roleplay forward. This could mean that, at that at the end of a post there needs to be one change that can't be undone to move the story forward and keep the pace engaging. But we can go into this in chat.
2. I'm also interested in using Dice Rolls to determine action successes. But if you would prefer not to then that's fine.
One final thing: I reserve the right not to go forward with the roleplay if I feel we're not on the same page. I'm looking for a roleplay partner, sharing half the work effort to make this good. Have I rambled long enough? I think so. Thanks for reading.
