S H I N N O K ' s rampage has come to an end, and his traitorous head is beheld skewered upon a morbid shrine. But peace remains a faraway dream, and the resulting chaos sends Earthrealm hurtling towards Outworld. The collision is massive, and Earthrealm merges with Outworld in an unnatural twisting of dimensions. With many of the old masters erased by Shinnok's war, old and vicious rivalries resurrect as once-distant clans lay eyes upon one another. Conflicting opinions lead to seemingly endless bloodshed as blame is passed from head to head.
Unity seems an impossible option; the power-hungry seek to invade, and the bitter aim to tear the realms back apart. The Elder Gods speak no words, and Netherrealm has debts to settle of its own.

Evening. This tiny excerpt is something reminiscent of the AU Mortal Kombat RP I started up on a now-Zucced forum not even a week ago. Having immigrated here, I figured I'd throw up a brief tidbit before committing to anything too grandiose again, lest I garner zero interest whatsoever.
The premise was fairly basic, though the execution - if only brief - was plenty of fun. Here is an OC-oriented AU "endgame" of Mortal Kombat, fuelled by vengeance, greed, and masses of unfinished business. Many clans are desperately clinging to existence following the war, with some lacking a leading figure and any sense of reasonable guidance. Despite the threat of Earthrealm's final destruction, the Elder Gods seemingly care little, and the inhabitants of both Earthrealm and Outworld continue to fail at compromise.
Plotlines will be character-oriented, with players formulating their own connections and ambitions along the way. Canonical clans may still exist, albeit beneath different leadership. Kombat will typically be carried out through narrative and player discussion rather than dice rolls, but a dice may be used during instances where players cannot settle on an outcome.
If you're even the slightest bit interested, drop a line here! I'll begin rewriting the full introduction once I'm confident I've gathered enough interest. I'll throw up a blank character sheet early on if this thing picks up.
Happy writing.
