I had this RP idea and thought I'd post it to see if there was any interest. The concept is below!
-----
You are a passenger on a large ship headed to the New World! Maybe you're a sailor who wants to see the world, or maybe you're a farmer who hopes to make a better life for their family in this new place. You could even be a nobleman who was appointed to a high-level position. In any case, the weather is sunny, the skies are clear, and it looks like you are going to arrive without any problems. Suddenly, the boat encounters the worst storm any of the crew has ever seen! Despite everyone's best efforts, the weather overtakes the boat and everything goes black.
The next thing you know, you wake up on an unfamiliar shoreline. In a panic, you look around and see a few people from the ship, but not nearly as many as were there originally. Now you must work with these survivors to try and stay alive on this island.
Can you survive on the deserted island?
-----
Basically, this is a medieval fantasy deserted island roleplay. Everyone will play as someone who survived the storm and they must work together if they don't want to die there. I thought a medieval fantasy setting would give lots of room for creativity and worldbuilding. I don't have a super detailed world in mind here, so this will give everyone a chance to contribute to the setting via their biographies, character skill sets, and so on.
That being said, this isn't an adventure where everyone is a level 100 wizard who can summon dragons to make their breakfast. It is very boring if the characters can just overpower any scenario they face. So while an almighty sage is out of the question, a beginner magician who was accepted to the best school of magic in the New World could be interesting! Likewise, a knight who has won tons of battles would be boring, but a local city guard who accepted a new job in the New World could work, depending on the details. Or maybe your character doesn't have any combat skills at all; a carpenter who went to the New World for a special project has valuable skills they could contribute.
So that's the concept I have in mind. If there are enough people interested, I'd be glad to make a CS and an OOC thread. I look forward to writing with you!
