Interested in a laid-back but interesting rp? Feel like cracking a few demons heads open in a Doomguy-esque style? A fan of pretty anything metal? You've come to the right place, my friend.

This idea is centered around an idea that i've attempted to create and keep alive, but never came to full fruition. So, I've dumbed it down quite a bit in order to keep it a free RP. Basically, the jyst of the story is, you play a soul sent to hell, and you need to break out, by any means necessary. There will be a central plotline, but free roaming is allowed, encouraged in fact. You may be able to aquire more details about the story, that way.

This is still a work in progress, so I figured I'd post a bit of it now and edit this post as needed until we have enough intereatied parties to make this an official thing. Any questions? Feel free to ask away!

Hey, this sounds pretty good.

Two questions.

1) How would combat work (Guild rules aside)- would weapons be scattered around, Doom-style? Unlocked Alien: Isolation-style?
2) Would the fact you're a soul exclude you from certain limitations (e.g. being pretty strong because you lifted in the Real World [a registered trademark])?

If this runs anything like the last time I was in one of your RPs, let the fun ride begin.

Ignore this, my internet hiccuped.

Zarkun! Its ben some years since last time, eh? But yeah, it should run similar, except this will be more sandbox esque than my previous attempts, no morel inear path, you choose where you want to go, what path you want to take.

Sounds like it will be different in that department. Consider me interested.

Weapons will be located and found. More common ones will be more readily available, such as melee weapons. The more powerful/supernatural weapons are much, much harder to find/earn. Any physical limits you've reached on earth would carry over.

Update 1: the Rp will play along the lines of many RPG video games, most likely dark souls, just not dying, as much. With each death you will be brought back with only half your current items, excluding weapons and armor. Those stay. Items such as Bombs, Ammo (for bow type and firarm type weapons. Yes, firearms will exist in Hell, unlike most would think, in however limited quantity they are.), and potions will be halved with each death. You can carry a maximum of ten potions. Health regen potions will regain full health, removing the need to install a Hit Point system. However, without a hp system, the bosses will be up ti me, the GM, when they should die. I will make it fair, of course. Smaller bosses will take more damage than bigger bosses, but reap fewer rewards. Vice versa as you continue on in the story.

Anither update coming soon. What woud you guys like to see in this RP idea? Feel free to share opinions.

I think it should progress through not the seven circles, but different understandings and severity of Hell- so the top would be standard Christian hell, with flames and such, and would get progressively worse and worse as the characters approached closer to the source of the Devil.

I also think there should be an element of survival, with some weapons not harming some enemies- such as requiring a boss's item(s) or something to continue (which gives incentive for the characters to do this, it can be shown in some way that they progress in power).

Well, for that first thing, I can play around with that a bit, but the seven or Nine circles of hell would make a bit more sense for anyone new to the topic, however, I will take this into consideration, and will provide you a personal update on what I have via PM. Once a version is picked, I'll post an edited Update, here.

For that second thing, there will be quite an element of survival. Certain enemies will be more prone to certain weapon types versus others. Certain equipment will also hold elemental-esque qualities, such as slowing, fire, ice, strength boost, and more. For example: say you face a demon with a rocky like skin. Blades wouldnt work as well with it, but perhaps spells or even blunt weapons like Hammers would work better against it.

Also, if we could get two or three more people interested in the RP, that eould be perfect. Once we do, and we get the details smoothed out, I'll post the OP.

Bump?
