Survival Optional PvP Game

[Sikako J]

Hey there all Sikako J here bringing back a game concept I had way back when the old site was up.

Concept: You and (up to 13) other people have been taken, sold, abducted, or volunteered to be placed into an area. You awake with no memory of the past few years but mysteriously managed to keep all your skills and knowledge that will help you survive. It will be a very large area and span all sorts of environments. On top of all of this you will be given a card that posses a strange power that you are able to activate. Should you survive the stent of time your memory is promised to be returned along with a wish for all intensive purposes.

Options: There is the option to be a Player vs Environment or Player vs Environment and Players. Depending how many which for each we can move into that game.

Character Build: There will be a mixture of stats to help further develop and balance characters.

Would anyone be interested in this concept of a game?

[ClocktowerEchos]

Seems interesting but I'd like some more on the setting of it before I make any major dedication to this idea

[Eklispe]

Looks fun so far.

[Catlord]

I would be willing to give this a try.

[Urbanliner]

Giving this a shot. Hope this doesn't die.

[AbysmalDemon]

I would be up for this

[Nil]

Oo, I was actually in the original, haha. My card was such a pain! Are you keeping the animal names?

[Ivanka]

I love the concept, I'm in.

[Sikako J]

Ah Nil you have a good idea then. Altering a few things to make it new. Awesome looks like we have a good interest. I'll start setting the map and Character Application up. Should have an OOC today by around 7:00 PM est.

[Ivanka]

Yay!

[Sikako J]

Alright looking over the game I have a question would the majority of people prefer to use stats to dictate some abilities of the Characters or purely story written?

[Miranda]

Because the OOC thread isn't open yet, are you still accepting new players for your roleplay, @Sikako J?

[Sikako J]

Sure are I can take up 11 players :)

Leaning on using a Stat System similar to D20 games to help with Combat and Skills.

@Sikako J

Uh-oh.

I... do not know how that works whatsoever.

[Scarifar]

I might be interested in this.

[Sikako J]

@Miranda No worries it is just a simple process. I'll have more up tonight on how it all works. Dont mind at all to help.

[Miranda]

Thank you so much, @Sikako J!

Twist of Fate

This game opens with your character waking up in a strange place with little to no memory of how they got there. Come to think of it you can’t even remember their own name or where they live. Certain item you can recall, almost as if selective memories have been blocked. The object of the “Game” is to survive a certain amount of time. Players may likely die, this is a reality but should make the “Game” quite enjoyable. You will also be given a special card that gives you some sort of power than can be used in the game. Think hunger games meets limited magic.

Possible Occupation: Maybe I was an athlete, kinda big for a runner maybe a Boxer?

So we have stats and we know what they mean, but how do we know how many stat points we have? Simply choose something reasonable? @Sikako J

[Sikako J]

Ah I was wondering if we wanted to assign 30 points or randomly roll.
