The Past Is In the Past

(or so you thought)







Tl;dr


It's back.

On the off-chance you're actually genuinely new to this, Wolf Manor is the spiritual successor to Woll Manor, a game that some of us miss so much we had to give it another chance. Long story short: you're the lucky lucky winner of an all-expenses paid trip to a luxury mansion in Southwest Germany.

What could possibly go wrong?


You'll have to wait and find out. You might even survive. This is simultaneously a GM-guided RP and a player-guided one. I have a loose narrative that I'm going to follow, and your characters are going to react to it. What you do will affect the plot as your characters try to work out/get the hell away from the mansion's secrets. All the while, I will be tinkering behind the scenes, sending you all super-secret PMs of details to include in your IC posts. You're going to be kept in the dark and I hope Bliss gets a good taste of her own medicine.

New Players?


This is very much a group RP and we have most of the players already lined up. Therefore, we have extremely limited space for maybe one or two other people (absolute maximum), so, if you are interested, pleeeease understand the commitment level: if we accept you, we're almost certainly not going to accept the next guy, and if you drop out, you robbed somebody else of a spot. If you want in, please make yourself known here and PM me what your character does when they find the briefcase in their room.

Characters


As part of keeping you poor little duckies in the dark, there will be no character sheets. Everything your characters know will be determined and revealed in the IC. Older players: please use new characters, by the way (for the same reason) but feel free to base them on yourselves. Every character should PM me the reason they're making the highly idiotic mistake of actually going on this bloody trip without taking narrative-destroying safety precautions: perhaps a dark secret, or their life is going nowhere, or maybe they are just actually incredibly stupid. Also PM me a picture. All characters should be native English speakers, with no useful French or German. Anything else you can tell me about them is a bonus and will help me run the game.






Boom. We're back.

Which is exactly why my chara concept will take a while, haha. Comic-con tomorrow so don't expect me much then...
I'm curious to see if we can recruit any fresh meat...
Err. I mean, eager new members.
I don't know if I'm going to make a completely new character now...I was actually really comfortable with Erika, hmph. But all the same, it gives me room to really explore the depth of a person...ah. The possibilities!

Either way they'll still be somewhat based on you, but starting from scratch means obliterating all prior OoC knowledge from Woll.

they all probably died anyway. thanks bliss

Yeah, how new are we talking in terms of characters? Obviously we don't want to be reading the same stuff over again, but one of my biggest regrets about this thing ending was never getting the chance to really get very far with my drugged out professor.

Edit: so you mean as long as they're not literally the same person, we can use the same archetypes basically?

The same fundamental archetypes are fine, I guess, but if any of us revealed any personal information, I'm going to suggest it be different.

In fairness, it doesn't have to be changed - but it might well not be the same.

I think I'll make a totally different character. I like Rikki the Neurotic Wreck but it'll be nice to try something else.

Forgot to mention under characters: characters should speak English at a native level and not speak German or French.

I am absolutely here and SOY excited! Currently in rehearsal, so depending on my stamina for tonight, you'll either have my "sheet" by tonight or tomorrow.

In all honesty, I'm quite excited to make a playing character that's going to wreck havoc with y'all. And I do indeed hope you give me a taste of my own medicine eh, Jig?

Mine will have to come tomorrow after work. I will definitely waste company time brainstorming my new character.

Oh yes.

You might notice that one character has made a return appearance from Woll Manor (at least in spirit and to my pleasure).

Jigjog, you're officially the best. Tysm.
Just watch my character be like "Yo I really really really really really like you. Now pour me a drink, please."
...whoever she shall be, sob. That isn't revealing too much, is it? Gender is just a human concept...sniff.

Not just me then. Good-oh.

I tried to Photoshop the picture of the manor into something foreboding-looking, but I've made something that looks like a child did it. If anybody can do anything cool with the image (which I've left intact on the OoC tab), please do. ^^

Guys, this is Kirah. Kirah is responsible for me managing to find Bliss through secret and totally banal methods we don't discuss and is otherwise all-round wonderful .

Either way, Kirah definitely deserves a spot. Ginger do you know if your friend is still interested? Assuming no Biggie this time round, we have 5 people (same as last time) so maybe space for one or, if we really squeeze, two more.

Hello Kirah! :3
I'm not actually overly sure if my friend still actively wants to join, but definitely give Kirah priority over him, since he's not super into the murder mystery scene anyway, but it was more so me dragging him over to check it out. He also said it seemed difficult to get into...pshht. << Wuss.

But yes hello nice to meet you! I hope you're ready to have our asses whooped by Jig have a great time with us! ^^
You cheeky devil, you...finding Bliss like that...
