Well! It's October! You know what that means...
TIME FOR SOME SCARY STORIES!
TIME FOR SOME SCARY STORIES!
Zoophobia is a comic written by Vivienne Medrano (aka Vivziepop on YouTube) (click this link to read it) and it's based in a world that lends itself very well to a slow-paced horror story. So, since I've been craving some dread, and because there doesn't seem to be anything else about Zoophobia here on the guild yet, I'm going to run a small-group RP set in this world.
You will start off playing as humans, but that doesn't mean your characters will stay human. There are a lot of.. unordinary things lurking in the shadows of this world. Lots of strange animals, to start. Then of course there's the more classically scary things. Mermaids, Vampires, Demons, and ghosts, just to name a few.
And that's about it.

But, don't worry, I hear what you're probably not asking:
"Now, what about that tag in the title? What's a Nursery-type RP? I don't want to play as a baby!"
Nursery-type RPs are meant to be completely newbie-friendly, and their focus is on helping players build up a character with actual character development. You start nearly completely powerless, or with next-to-no idea how the world works, and then go from there. Your character generally has a "can't-die" plot armor until they're 18, and because of the focus more on characters rather than plot, the plot doesn't have to be completely perfect. These types of RPs tend to have a more slice-of-life feel when there's no immediate threat.
We play until your character dies, and if you want to quit before that your character is just put aside, never killed off. You can always come back to them later if you want, or start a different one. If your character dies and you want to make a new one, go ahead. Each player has one main character that they play at a time, and any NPCs that are with that character.

Here's a fandub of the comic too, just in case you'd prefer not to have to read it all on your own.
