So I was thinking of coming back to the site and running a RP. I have three different ideas and I wanted to if there was any interest in any of them before I committed to anything.

1. Stargate SG-1 Year 2
2. Zombie Apocalypse Survival
3. Fantasy prophecy fulfillment

I'm open to any skill level from low casual to advanced. If there is a decent amount of interest in any the ideas I'll start working on a more specific interest check and go again from there.

P.S. The plots are ranked with what I'd like to most to (well, I wouldn't say least but yeah).

Oh yay, Stargate SG1! That thing with the big hot dude with the gold forehead thing. I am gonna go watch that from S1EP1 on now, seeing if I can finally figure out what the hell I was watching occasionally as a kid. If Hulu doesn't have it, I'm gonna flip a table.

The Stargate thingy I may be interested in in about three days to a week after I've emerged from binge watching it (also depending on how far I get).

The gold forehead dude also voiced Kratos in the newest God of War BTW. <3

the big hot dude with the gold forehead thing.

The character's name is Teal'c. The actor is Christopher Judge. And yes, I do know he voices Kratos. I also know there was a huge uproar about it because he replaced the original voice actor and the fans were pissed.

If Hulu doesn't have it, I'm gonna flip a table.

I do believe Hulu at least has a few seasons. Your tables are safe... for the moment. They don't have the 1994 movie, which is actually the start of the whole thing. So you might want to think about watching that too.

I gleaned a bit of the movie from episode 1. Egyptian mythology, reference to cartouches which were symbols Egyptians put at the front and last of names of people, places, and things to protect them from evil magic, Mark Jackson obviously stayed behind - presumably for one other mission-related reason (like guarding the clear codex of places so that he could monitor its use and protect the rest of the galaxy from humanity coming through to conquer other worlds - if not solely due to falling in love with the woman who ended up getting captured upon the earthlings' return.

Also, that snake armor is something I do not remember, but boy, it makes way more sense as a snake. At first glance, I thought they were supposed to be jackals and the guy in the middle was either Osiris or Anubis, not Ra or Apophis. Little odd though how they tried to make Apophis have a human form, since - unlike Ra - Apophis is supposed to be so chaotic that he HAS no physical form. Perhaps they'll surprise me on that one and Mr. Big Red Snaky really will show up in that form in the Duat (ooooh! wondering if SG1 explains the Egyptian concept of the Duat levels at all in a biological/astronomical way). The Duat river myth could potentially just have been their explanation for SG travel! :p

Although the Egyptian myth of sleeping with a headrest to keep the ba part of the soul anchored to the body might not have any scientific grounds...unfortunately.

Daniel Jackson. Not Mark. And he stayed behind to bury the Stargate which would protect Earth. Because they thought that was the only stargate there was. It wasn't until later that he discovered the other gate addresses. Which is why he uncovered his gate. He was actually going to start trying to dial up another gate when Jack had dialed him.

I wouldn't count on it. Most the the mythology (not just Egyptian) is explored mostly superficially. Though if that is something of interest for the players we can do something a little more accurate and a little more in-depth.

Sorry, I had a passage open from the Gospel of Mark in another tab. Freudian slip :D

I'd be interested in no 3 :)

Throwing in my vote for #2, and I'm pretty sure I have someone in mind who'd also want to join in on it if you went with said option.

Most interested in 3. Followed by 2.

Whelp, now I got interest all over the board. Which is both good and bad....

If you wanted since votes are roughly even you could go the one you like most and let someone of your choosing gm one of the others. I’m fact you could run a little contest to help you pick the other stories gm/co gm.

#2, cazzie, 2 characters

Alrighty it looks like I'm getting the most interest for 2 and 3. I'll make an actual Interest Check for both this weekend and post a link here for everyone.
