Hi there! I had this idea for a RP and I thought I'd share it.

-----

You are a slave in the prison mine system, working through most of the daylight to extract gold from the rock for people you hate. How did you get there? Maybe you are a criminal, sentenced there for life for whatever evil you did. Maybe you were born a slave, eventually sold to the government to be used for mining. Or it could have been something else entirely; whatever the reason, you live a life full of dreary, oppressing work.

Your thoughts are often filled with the desire to be free, but how would you do so? The facility is filled with guards, you have no weapons, and if you do know any magic your abilities have been negated by the cuff you wear around your ankle. Not to mention the inhospitable terrain of the area and the expense of leaving the continent. But despite the odds, those thoughts won't leave your head! And somehow, you've met others there that share your dream. Now you all are planning to escape or die trying.

Will you succeed in your escape?

So that's just a little introduction to the idea I have. The basic concept is you're a slave in a medieval fantasy setting who wants to escape the prison mine they're in. Not only will you have to get out of the facility, but the continent as well. Maybe your character has some kind of magic that can help (once they can use it), maybe they're a warrior, or they may have something else to contribute to the team. Ideally we'd write a story together that involves these characters growing as they make their way towards freedom, so OP characters with no weaknesses or flaws are boring to write about and read. I'd like at least four or five writers besides me for this, but I don't have an upper limit in mind. If this interests you, let me know!

It sounds like a fun time. I would totally be up for breaking out of a mining prison.

This has my interest. I'd join if you started this.

Interested! I'll probably play a young slave who's heard a whole bunch of legends and tall tales about famous heroes and warriors, and, being the easily awestruck teen she is, tried to remember them enough to tell them orally(because she doesn't know how to read or write), and become a hero herself one day. They're basically one of the reasons why she still has hope(with one other reason being she wants to see the sun and what's outside the mines someday).

Your interest is appreciated! And I do try to make all of my RPs fun @Zora :)

Are different races available or is it human only?

I'm in! Sounds fun and has a lot of potential.

Might be interested. I presume Anime Faceclaims are allowed?

Different races are available. I think humanoid-sized types of races make sense so we aren't wondering how the giant ogre or whatever got enslaved, but I'm open to listening to different ideas.

Might be interested. I presume Anime Faceclaims are allowed?

They are, yes! It should make sense for the setting, for example I don't want to see Naruto on your CS lol, but I'd imagine that shouldn't be an issue.

@Zapdos, would this be an all-right image, then? Minus the katana, if we're going for a Western-style nation?

@Letter Bee I think that should be fine for an image. What will matter more is how you write and the CS as a whole.

Perfect.

I believe I might have a character for this setting. Huge man, son of blacksmith, enslaved to work in the mines to settle a colossal family debt, keeps daydreaming of a free man's wishes, like lying down in the grass under the sun, coming home to a wife and kids, working the forge and so on.

Will this RP have a Discord Server?

Are there going to be characters sheets?

Sounds like an interesting character!

@Letter Bee yes, I do have a Discord server. Upon being accepted into the RP, I will send you a link to it.

@Tora yes, there will be a CS. I haven't made it yet, but it will exist.

@Zapdos I'm glad to hear that!

So, @Zora and @Tora I have to ask; do you know each other or are the similar usernames just a nice coincidence? Either way is fine, I was just curious.

@Zapdos They are a coincidence, I have literally just logged on and got into searching for RPs again after a 2-year hiatus. Lmao. I doubt that I truly know anyone on this site anymore.

@Zora darn lol, well I've been on hiatuses before too, I know how it is. Well I am thinking of how the OOC will be presented, so I hope this is an enjoyable return to RPing for you.
