@Kafka Komedy I'm not against it, but for now, I'd only allow basic stuff when it comes to robotics. Nothing advanced, so basically steampunk or clockwork level stuff.
In this role play, you will be playing an amalgamation of you and someone else or an alteration of yourself. Normally it's a fandom character or something of your own imagination. This will be an adventure-based story and inspiration will be drawn from Yakushoku Distpiari - Gesellschaft Blume, The Rising of the Shield Hero, Rave Master and Black Clover, to name a few. Specifics regarding the plot will be worked out in the thread before everything officially starts.
Welcome to Fantasia! I'd like to inform you that you, have died. As sad as it may be, it’s unimportant how. Well, at least for the bigger picture, but I guess it is pretty important for you, eh? What can I say, tough luck? Better luck next time. But let’s not dawdle on depressing things! You have died and just as you were expecting a dark tunnel with a white light at the end, you are confronted with a peculiar message:
GAME OVER. RESTART IN ANOTHER WORLD?
The whole thing looked like it was taken from the video games you used to play, except for the question about restarting in another world. What's with that? Shouldn’t it say “restart at the last checkpoint”? Hm, I guess not. Right below the question, there were two options: [YES] and [NO].
Naturally, you're going to choose yes. Why? Because this story needs you to! How do you expect me to lead this story if you decide you're fine with being dead? Stay on the rails! I mean, on figurative rails, not real ones, because then you’ll probably just die again. Unless you're some sort of superhero. Which you may very well become in this new world we’re going.
Just as you press [YES], a new message replaces the previous ones.
PLEASE CREATE YOUR CHARACTER.
Now, what the hell does that mean?! Aren’t you already created? Your mom and dad worked hard at it too! Does this reincarnation system want to pick a fight with you!?! You are perfect the way you are, they said so at school! A special little snowflake!
Hm, but are you sure you're perfect? Maybe you wanted to be a little slimmer, a tad taller or you might be unhappy with your gender? Be honest, I won’t judge. Actually, I will, but I can promise you that I'll keep everything confidential. If I had lips, they would be sealed!
Here’s your chance to fulfill all of those fantasies, except the particularly weird and perverted ones. This isn't the place for those. Let us now dive in this fantasy world filled with magic, adventure and annoying anime tropes!
An explosion of colors suddenly appear around you. What was previously a pitch black void of death was now dyed in a cloudy combination of white and blue. The message telling you to create your character was gone and in it is place, some kind of form appeared before you. It took you only a quick glance to realize what it was.
A Character Sheet:
[Appearance]
Name: This one is simple. Write down the name by which you want to be known in this world. You can pick your Earth name, but that would be boring. Nobody likes boring people. Gender: Are you a boy or a girl? Maybe neither? Or both? Hey, it’s a fantasy world, you can find all kinds of stuff. Background: Tell us about yourself. What did you do in your Earthly life? How do you feel about your death? What are your plans for the future?
Race: You probably changed your appearance and are no longer human. So yeah, what are you now? Class: ---
Abilities and Traits: This part gets a little tricky. Instead of choosing your abilities and whatnot, you shall simply give me a brief description of what you want. This would range from physical capabilities, talents, and skills. If you're not a fan of describing, you can simply give a theme and I'll give you a set that you can work with.
Equipment: You’re dead. You got nothing. Nothing! But you may acquire things on your journey around the world, so this field here is where you’ll list all weapons, armours and other such items in your possession.
Now that you've decided to [FINALIZE], you have officially made your character. Or, better say, remade yourself. Congratulations! Now, our journey can begin. Fasten your seat belts, because we are about to land! Reincarnation world, here we come!
Once again, light explodes and you get engulfed by a rainbow-colored whirlpool of energy. A sudden feeling of being launched downwards possesses you and the instinctive fear of falling forces you to scream. As you look bellow you the myriad of colors clear and an unfamiliar landscape began rapidly approaching you. Your eyes water from the speed, making you unable to properly inspect the features of the world around you. Not that you’d have enough composure to do it anyway, as your destination became clear: a gray, rocky mountainside. You show no signs of stopping as you draw closer and closer until finally you hit the mountain’s surface at full force, exploding from sheer force of the impact into a spectacle of gore...
That didn’t happen. Before you collided with the surface, either out of fear or something else, you lose your consciousness and darkness envelops your mind. What could possibly happen next?
@Magnato@Duoya@Patient 43Delta Sorry for the inactivity, the lack of interest is just disheartening. However, I'm still more than willing to run this RP.
@Magnato Glad to hear that! I plan to start things out with four people at least. I'll try to flesh this out even more; gotta make this look interesting.
This will be a brainstorming thread regarding an RP idea I want to run. I'll be listing the major concepts I've thought of and hopefully, this would interest you. If you have any suggestions or plan on participating, feel free to comment down below. Can't wait to start RPing again.
Inspiration for this RP would come from Re: Monster.
Everyone will be playing a lesser monster of some sort. Your choices will be monsters or beasts that are considered small and weak as compared to the more known ones. Examples would be Goblin or Imp for some demi-humans, then we have Wolf Pups or Bear Cubs for beasts.
As cliche as this sounds, your character will be someone who was previously human but had perished and was reborn into a monster.
During most of the RP, you'll be spending most of your time trying to survive against the elements, hunger, and other creatures that may want to kill you. Evolution and learning various skills will also be part of the RP. A Goblin could eventually turn into something like a Ogre, Oni, or Minotaur. An Imp might become a Vampire or Demon. While Wolves or Bears could take on a more anthropomorphic form or something more similar to a chimera. There is no actual limitation on this and the potential transformations would be limitless; you just need to bring it up with me first.
Eventually, you may probably create your own little community or establish some infamy since you're all monsters and stuff.
If the RP goes on long enough, we can start world building and integrate more of a adventure-like plot into the mix to spice things up.
Just to make things clear, I greatly value character interaction and dialogue amongst players. So don't expect that this would always be pure action-based and whatnot.
If you guys wanna include or talk about more things, just speak up. The more interest this garners, the more I can expand on this.
