Hello to all who is reading this general interest check,

I have been gone back into my old T.V. shows of Criminal Minds, NCIS, CSI, and you get the drift of what I am trying to say here. I have been inspired to try and start a small group to large group based around the idea of a team working together to stop:


If you cannot handle talking about sensitive topics or are under the age of 18, I as the person who is looking for people please ask you to step away from this interest check. This roleplay will be based on T.V. shows, theories, real cases, and much more. It will go into the depths of scenes, evidence, and other things to get the story along. Scenes of violence might occur though they should always be written out and never shown through extreme graphics such as photographs.

The main ideas:
☞ The roleplay will be guided by different cases. Some will be similar to each other while others will be completely out of this world. One case will be picked up and another even if it's important will not be picked up till the worked-on case is closed or dropped for rational reasons. There can be scenes and occurrences in-between cases (downtime, etc...) and those times can be skipped if the majority want them to be.
These cases will be mainly created by me, taken from shows, stories, and real life so we have inspiration for cases. If you join and want to create guidance points for a case, we can discuss it. I will play all NPC's unless someone wants to pitch in help (these characters can be anyone from victims, local police, victims' families, and the predators themselves.)

General Rules:
⚀ Listen to all site rules. Please and thank you.
⚁ No metagaming, a lot of things will be discussed in the OOC tab that should not flow into the IC tab without permission or informed knowledge by people who know it. For example, character one gets kidnapped by a serial killer who is named Bob. The other characters do not know who the killer is yet, so no one should know the name, face, or location of such a character till permission is granted.
⚂ Replies: This roleplay will ask for replies to be done weekly to bi-weekly. (Sunday to Sunday). Along with the time frame, the GM will ask everyone to at least keep replies over a paragraph (5+ sentences) unless it comes down to quick scenes of communication. Like meeting in the conference room and talking about a case.
⚃ Ideas and what comes down to it: If you have an idea, talk to me about it. If you want a certain story to be driven within a new case. We can definitely make it happen. Speak up if you want to participate in making bad guys up and how the story could go. For example, you can discuss the way you want it to go - that doesn't mean it will. I will be rolling for outcomes to have favors or not. Rolling, coinflipping and my last decision-making will make sure if our team catches the guy, gets the girl out safely, imprisons the woman, etc...
⚄ Consequences: What our team will be in is the BAU or something similar to it. Meaning we work for the government as high-ranked officials and what we do has consequences. Some more than others. If you shoot someone even if it's justified our senior director or whoever is looking over us might not agree. You might have to defend yourself and your actions against the higher authorities.
⚅ Last and not least, have fun. You're on a team who will support each other and get through things even if it's rough.

What is this roleplay looking for?
◬ A team of roughly 5 people.
I will be playing the unit chief (this doesn't have to count within the 5 characters)
We will need field agents and special agents
Technical analysts/communications

Additions: Another thought to add on is that your person can be completely new to the job or this particular job. It might be easier for character development even if they worked in similar careers before or are right out of their studies. Though having all the characters new to each other will help establish bonds amongst each and see how they do with character building with each other.


An Idea for my character:


Hopefully, this idea of mine can help you start building character ideas of your own.

@evierose

Welcome aboard! Once enough interest shows, I will make a general field for character development sheets and will create an IC/OOC tab. Till then, you can always ask questions about ideas, character creation, and more!

Will the characters have their specializations? Like how the team in crime dramas usually consists of: the lead, the tech person, the doctor or medical/biology expert etc.

I am planning that they will have specializations, yes. Personally, I feel like a good team is made up of people who specialize in different things to get the job done. The leader, field agents, tech, medical, etc... I do not know how forceful I will be with it though, since I don't want to scare people away or force them into a role they do not want to be in. If it calls for it, I will play NPCs to fill in gaps such as forensics if needed.

If one more person shows interest - There will be four people, including myself, and I will create an IC/OOC thread from this idea (most likely will be placed into the casual even though it's going to be relaxed.)

I've always wanted to attempt a Criminal Minds inspired RP, so I'll cast my hat into this ring.

Just for clarification, is your character the Unit Chief ala Hotch/Prentiss or the Section Chief ala Strauss/Cruz?

My character will be the Unit Chief, aka similar to Hotch/Prentiss. I don't think I will have a player character playing as the Section Chief unless someone gives me a really good reason and show they really want it.
