[OOC] Telecommunications

[BingTheWing]

@DeadDrop Wait, so a worldwide virus prompted all the cybernetic changes to the human body?

[DeadDrop]

The virus incidentally caused the technological revolution

[vietmyke]

@Monochromatic Rainbow Jack is running with the plasmatic equivalent of a .50 AE. What's gritty cyberpunk without noise cops and handcannons?

[DeadDrop]

You noobs let me know if/when you'll send a sheet in :p me and the other boys will wait <3. (twelve is still away :( )

[TwelveOf8]

@DeadDrop I'm back and I'm ready to go. Just say the word and I will make an IC post. You know I'm always keen.

[DeadDrop]

I'm waiting for one of these guys to post a CS ;~;

[ML]

how open is this rp to player influence? is it an on the rails adventure or could the players make stuff up as they go along

[DeadDrop]

There is player choice and freedom but I dont know what you mean by "make stuff up as you go"

[vietmyke]

I assume he's referring to story and plot. Are there set key points we're going to be hitting or are we going to sandbox it? Or some combination of the two.

[DeadDrop]

Hello everyone.

Telecommunications is a roleplay based on a special unit of police officers, whether they are detectives or beat cop they all have special skill sets whether its in investigating or policing. They've been called to a new unit, which has yet to be named. Possibly by the PCs or otherwise, they'll start in the precinct and then either break off or go as a group to start their investigation. Player choice, freedom and exploration will be major mechanics in the roleplay as we'll be exploring the deeper parts of a futuristic Detroit.

Character Development and relations will play hand in hand with the players and NPCS.

There will be a large deal of freedom and flexibility in the story. While I do have a few general plot lines planned and storyboarded, these will serve more as a guideline and inspiration, no fate is pre-determined. Whatever the choices our characters make, the story will start out in Detroit and may move to other parts of the US based on player choice.

All actions have cause and effect, be careful and remember that your character may die.

[DeadDrop]

You can act how you like but I'll be the one to move the story along and decide how the world reacts.
No plot twists will come from the players in regards to the story.

@DeadDrop

ah, a blessing an a curse

on the one hand, twists are the best part of some RPs, but on the other hand I totally get that

[DeadDrop]

The only way people will be developing their own story plotlines on their own is if they are are the co-gms.

I have one co-gm... In mind....

If he returns from the DEAD.

[ML]

I mean the players are allowed to have subplots, right? they just won't have too much effect on the story?

so like, npcs they create, friends/families, etc?
