The clandestine organisation toiling in the shadows to recognise, contain and destroy evil. We are the Bizarre Patrol. Semper Paratus.
I've had this idea for an RP rolling around in my head for quite some time now! The story will focus on the Bizarre Patrol--a "secret society" that protects the world from evil, usually associated with myths and legends. Each member of the Bizarre Patrol has a "talent", usually a degree in something or some sort of background that would help in tracking and obtaining artefacts and fighting evil! I already have three characters that I would play: Rodney Sweet--a professor of linguistics and comparative religions. Mr Pembroke--the man who brought the five members of the Bizarre Patrol together--and Ares, Mr Pembroke's personal assistant. I'm looking for another player who would create their own characters associated with the team (we'd also brainstorm some as well) as well as events and artefacts we'd like to explore. I have a few "plot points" in mind I'd love to explore and we can move on and design from there! Anybody down from some globe-trotting adventures?
I prefer to use the site for roleplaying and Discord for world-building and such throughout.
1.) The Trident of Poseidon-- "But afterwards there occurred violent earthquakes and floods; and in a single day and night of misfortune all your warlike men in a body sank into the earth, and the island of Atlantis in like manner disappeared in the depths of the sea" Plato, Timaeus/Critias If the legends are true--and in this line of work you quickly learn they usually are--then the City of Atlantis lies at the bottom of the ocean, beneath Bermuda Triangle. The Trident of Poseidon--the ultimate weapon may be what put it there in the first place. Someone has found the Trident. We need to put it back. The Atlanteans are coming...
2.) Eye of Odin -- "Skeggöld. Skalmöld. Skildir ro klofnir. Vindöld. Vargöld. Áðr veröld steypisk. Mun engi maðr ǫðrom þyrma" Völuspá 45 Winter came in cold and hard last year. Roads froze over. A thick, frigid haze hung in the sky. The snow kept piling up. Soon, the world was covered in a blanket of snow and ice. It's August now, and there is still no sign of winter ending. The first sign of Ragnarök.
3.) The Obsidian Tomb -- "...then I will lay My hand on Egypt and bring out My hosts, My people the sons of Israel, from the land of Egypt by great judgments. 5 The Egyptians shall know that I am the Lord, when I stretch out My hand on Egypt and bring out the sons of Israel from their midst." Exodus 7:4-5 (NASB) First there were locusts. Then there were frogs. Two plagues in two weeks. Something in the burning sands of Egypt is coming. Something evil...
I'd like to do a group roleplay for this one! I'm looking for a more collaborative storytelling effort as opposed to being a GM and plotting out the story. Let me know if you're interested! I'm thinkin' about three to five folks--each of us playing a key member of the team as our "main and any other NPCs or other characters in the plot as the story develops. I look forward to playing with you all!
