This story begins with you dying

You heard me right, you've died. It's okay to feel a bit upset, you might remember what happened and you might not have. Don't worry though, you're here now. I've got you, I've saved you. Who am I? Well, that's not important just yet. I've got a deal for you, if you'd like to take it. Let me know whenever you want dear since well.. we have some time. At least until your body starts decomposing.

That makes things a bit more complicated.

In this roleplay you will play a person who has met their demise in some way or some how, maybe even someone. In a turn of events you have been given a second chance (omg a title drop) by this mysterious person. However, now that you have done this you are owned by them and you must do their bidding. What does this entail? Well, killing people and taking their souls of course! Duh! Now, you may be asking- "why can't I just take my new life and go back to my old one?" That sure does sound nice, but no one but the few other people with the same fate can see you, hear you, understand you, etc. Them and the bad souls you have to reap. Think of it as an in between world.

Weapons are relatively useless here so you must use your wit and skill to complete your tasks. Some will be more challenging than others and some will push you to your mental limits, but as long as you complete your tasks you can keep on living. Which is good, you suppose. It's better than dining with the maggots am I right?

What do you say? Do we have a deal?

[Flyestnyalist]

@MissCapnCrunch we definitely have a deal

[MissCapnCrunch]

@Flyestnyalist

Yes perfect... perfect indeed.

[MissCapnCrunch]

I'd like probably about 3 or 4 interested souls before popping out an OOC :)

[Witch Cat]

This sounds interesting! But quick question, basically in this rp we go around RPing as ghosts trying to kill a bunch of targets indirectly? (Like luring them into traffic, making them fall off a ladder, etc.)

[MissCapnCrunch]

@Witch Cat

Good question!

Ghosts in a sense, but not ghosts. People don't see us, nor hear us- besides one another. Some of the targets will be indirect and others with be very difficult. I've thought of many different situations to bring on different emotions from our characters. Some souls to be claimed will be like an older gentleman suffering in a hospital, a lead boss in a strip club, or a young child. Some of these cases will be harder than others- and it'll be your characters choice to ultimately participate to keep your "life" going- as what it is.

Hopefully that makes sense :)

Also very open to other ideas- this is just a thought i've been throwing around!

[canaryrose]

Ooh, this sounds fun.

@MissCapnCrunch

Ah I see, so we're not legless translucent flying bed sheets, just invisible humans. Also, do we get any special powers or do we have to rely on our own natural strength and wit? And is there anything stopping us from interacting with live humans or with the world? I'm assuming we don't get to pass through walls, so would people be able to feel us if we brushed past them or notice our foot prints in the dirt or "see" when we lift an object, if no, then what's stopping us from just walking up to targets and stabbing them? If yes, let's suppose a human somehow finds us and shoots us or something, will we die and not be able to come back? Sorry about bombarding you with questions, just wanna make sure I understand everything.

(Also I forgot to mention, I'd love to join!)

@Witch Cat

Not legless translucent bed sheets- unless you wanna wear a sheet on your head- then by all means (Not really)

Let me go through the questions and try to answer them:

1) We will be relying on our own strengths and wits. If your person was killed because they were lets say, previously a criminal- it might benefit you in the fact that you're good at trickery, or cunning. If your person was in the military it might make sense that you're strong, or what have you. That is up to you, you might be a "useless" character in one way- but depending on the case you guys are assigned it might be useful. For example; a mother might not be a great character for taking out a sex ring, but she would be good at comforting a child.

2) They will not be able to see you, and you probably could go up and just stab them in reality- but the holder of your soul 'The Mystery Person' who will be revealed at the start of the ooc/roleplay- does not want you to do these things. They want you to bring these souls to death with little to no suspicion of foul play. They are not dead- so if something gets traced back to them, they could get in big trouble.

3) The only way you can die/pass over in this is if you start to not complete tasks laid out by the boss.

I hope this is all making sense, it's something that I am still creating as I go. I'm thinking it's sort of like a business deal in a sense. Your character has died- brought back by this person who is sort of a bringer of death. Sometimes good, sometimes bad. Your deal with him is that you get to stay alive if you kill the people he requires of you.

@MissCapnCrunch

Thanks a bunch! That's pretty much all the questions I had, so yeah, can't wait till the OOC gets set up!

[canaryrose]

@MissCapnCrunch

What's the age minimum and maximum for our characters?

[MissCapnCrunch]

@MissCapnCrunch

What's the age minimum and maximum for our characters?

@canaryrose

Good question! I will probably say 10+ and less than 100.
Whatever age you died at will be the age you remain stuck in :)

[MissCapnCrunch]

I will get the OOC up sometime Sunday. I'm a little busy this weekend.
But if you guys would like I can get you a character sheet so you can work on things over the weekend?

[Typical]

@misscapncrunch Interested as well! Would love to get a preliminary CS to start working on a character :)

[MissCapnCrunch]

Here you guys go.
Please refrain from posting your characters in here just yet.

I'll get you an OOC for them momentarily. Decided to get it ready now instead of Sunday.
However, probably won't be very active until then- so my apologies in advance ^^
