Alrighty, seems we have a good amount of people now. I'm probably gonna be a little occupied during the afternoon, so don't expect the OOC up until around 3-4pm EST. Til' then, I'll leave you with the character sheet to hold you over.
Name: (Self Explanatory)
Age: (Young adult/teenager to Old-man basically. No 10 year old mage prodigy's or whatever.)
Race: (Standard fantasy requirements, Humans, dwarfs, ect...:)
Appearance: (Preferably non-anime, but if you absolutely must, go ahead.)
Occupation: (You can range from a peasant to a soldier. In terms of jobs, you can be pretty much anything except anything high class, for story purposes. However, if you opt to be a soldier of sorts, you must be low-ranked.)
Personality: (Another given. Just please don't ham it up if you're going the "dark and brooding anti-hero" route...)
Bio: (Doesn't have to be in excruciating detail, just a little background on character.)
Equipment: (Weapons are allowed, but if you're character is someone with a non-violent background you're gonna have to sort of either improvise or come up with a good excuse. As we go along, our characters will find better stuff, so start small. No carrying "The level-8 super-powered master sword inherited from his demi-god father" or whatnot.)
Talents/Traits: (Everyone's gotta pull their weight somehow, you know. Correlates to your occupation and background.)

Interested. Are we talking simple folk characters? Or can I do a holy crusader whackjob (not overpowered, not magic) just like a fanatic that may or may not have come from some major church or other.
Wacky priests are always welcome.
A few more and I'll start up the OOC.
There is a great turmoil erupting in the World: From the plains to the mountains, terrible earthquakes violently rumble across the land, causing great buildings to tumble and homes to be destroyed. The fishing boats are being rocked by ferocious waves and fierce storms. The simple folk are being stricken by terrible plagues and sicknesses, and many are dying. On some occasions, there is what seems to be fire in the skies; Terrible red clouds that spit horrible fiery rocks to the earth, devastating the world further.
Some folks and soothsayers are saying that the terrible events that are transpiring are a message from the gods, a message stating the world has been corrupted by greed and selfishness, and that the only way to cleanse the earth is to destroy its denizens completely. Riots are being staged to the leaders of the land, and martial law has been placed. People are being slain in the madness left and right, adding to the devastation that is already occurring. Crime is booming. Looters and robbers are taking claim to the land that is shrouded in chaos and darkness. In this bleak time, there is almost no one with a positive outlook...
However, in this madness, there may be a way to end the wrath of the gods...
So yeah, that's the general plot. The rest will be ironed out as the OOC is being set up. Now, there are a few rules that are gonna be taking effect...
*As you know, this is going to be a pretty depressing RP. So beware to those who want to come into this expecting a happy-go-lucky adventure about slaying dragons and saving princesses.
- There is going to be hardships and defeats, it's a terrible world with a lot of bad stuff going on, so this is a given. However, you can still make jokes and everything if you'd like, as long as you keep in mind that this is a pretty seriously-themed role-play.
- Magic is to be VERY limited: I.E, No overpowered time-warping, portal creating, super-powerful spells right out of the gate. In fact, as of now, me and the co-gm are still trying to determine whether or not magic will even be allowed.
-On that same note, your characters are not allowed to be super overpowered, over competent bad-asses right away either. There's always this notion on RPG that everyone's character has to be a super-cool knight who can destroy entire armies, but not in this RP. Take that to free.
- If you must use an anime pic, then do so. However, it's preferred that non-anime pics are to be used in your appearance. Again, this isn't going to be some anime fairy tale.
-Again, a lot of details are to be ironed out, but suggestions are allowed to be given if you'd like. I guess there's one final warning: It's going to be pretty dark. Deaths may occur to your characters, but if it happens we will be certain to discuss it beforehand so we don't piss you off.
There's probably going to be a character limit of about 10-15 people, so it's first come first serve. However, and I'm not saying this to be a dick, if your character isn't up to snuff or if you're a particularly unpleasant person and/or someone who complains too much, we may ask you kindly to get the fudge out.
So yeah, that's pretty much the gist of it. Hope you guys are interested. : D

Patrick sighed as Road House's spunky new bassist emerged from the bathroom in a fuss.
"Welcome to life on the road, missie." Patrick told Brandi with a weak grin. Patrick wondered what was with Road Sign and the band's uncanny poor luck with bassists. It always seemed that wherever the band went, the rotation of bassists played its course, whether because of one oddity or another...and now because of tragedy. However, Patrick thought maybe he should give this girl a chance. She has the raw talent, and certainly the ambition and energy of someone willing to commit to being a musician. It also helps that her brother was willing to drive the group to and fro on a penny on a dollar, but that was neither here nor there. However, Patrick knew that Brandi's princess charade was going to get old, and fast.
Patrick peaked through the backseat window, making sure that the gear was snugged nice and tight in the back. No need for any accidents, he didn't want this to end up like last year's tour. Christ, what a mess that was. All that work, all of the dives we played in, all of the driving, and still no call back from any producers.

I don't see why we have to complicate ourselves much on the matter, I mean, if we say "Rock" the people who are into classic can imagine it being classic, people who are into punk can imagine it as punk, people who are into blues can...well, yeah, you get the picture.
We can just come up with original song titles. I mean, is the music the main focus or is the supernatural aspect more important?

Hola. So Ves (the head gm) is gonna be busy until friday-ish, so until then Epiphany and I will try our best to move things along without him. However, we weren't given much of a script or anything that would tell us what's happening next, so I suppose it's still pretty much a free-for-all against the zombies right now. So, apologies if things are going a bit too sluggishly for some; We assure you things will be up and running shortly.
Sounds good.
Whoa, should we bump until we find someone who wants to be the drummer?
