Afterlife : Formica

@sassy1085

Hey, thanks for poking me on this. I think it's really awesome that you're still into the concept.

Short answer: yes.

Long answer: I apologize to everyone that I wasn't right about the date. The moment I seemed to get into working on stuff, my health declined and I stopped using my computer totally to deal with it. I wanted to try and wait it out, but it's taking too long and I should have said something. In the future I will make sure to do so.

The truth is it may be several weeks-- maybe less if I am lucky! --getting my health and life in order before I'm ready to tackle the scale of being a GM. The best I can say is to wait for me to announce it. I don't want to be irresponsible and give another wrong estimate, but it definitely won't be forever or never. I just want to do my best, so I want to be healthy is all.

Hungry for RP (A 1x1 Hunt)

🦄H u n g r y f o r R P🦄

Heyo! Name's City and I'm here looking to get in some serious writing practice. I haven't been on top of my game and to be honest I need it. For that, I've turned to RP's. I enjoy the laid back nature of forums combined with the excitement of working with a partner to craft something completely new. 1x1 = Who knows? Generally speaking, I like to play female characters, and love it when we just jump in with minimal building beforehand. That doesn't mean I don't like to build long term settings, characters or plots, far from it. It simply means I prefer to do so during the RP rather than before. By developing as we go, things can be kept interesting. Finally, I'd say my RP level is low casual to low advanced. If anything here catches your eye, don't hesitate to shoot me a PM.

Casual-Advanced | PM-Based | FxM or FxF | SFW Only | Can still be up to R-rated, containing violent or semi-sexual situations. | Open to Chat

Original Concept Cravings

*Darkest Behind the Rainbow*
|Horror|
Person A and Person B have been such close friends all their life that they even moved towns together when their parents switched jobs. Looking back on their youth, the now grown pair recall spending time in a magical land of imagination their parents didn't believe existed. Located beneath Person A's home, through a cramped tunnel: Rainbowtopia. It was a wonderful place: full of candy, clouds, and colorful, friendly creatures. And no matter how much time you spent there, no time passed in the real world. They want to go back. But once they get there, will it be all they remembered it to be?

*Paranormal BBS*
|Thriller|
Inspired by the Cicada 3301 challenge. Person A and Person B follow a cryptic forum post down a rabbit hole of revelations about the true nature of their world. Once they get in deep enough, it will be impossible to turn back. But will they want to?

Afterlife : Formica

Working on constructing an official OOC since I got some bites, but it may be post Thanksgiving Break before it goes up. I have some more planning and stuff to do, plus the busy holiday.

Thank you guys again for showing interest!

Afterlife : Formica

Note: This is just a quick check for a casual horror/mystery concept I had. If anything about it interests you, then feel free to leave a message or ask questions. Though it does have elements based off research into various possible afterlives, this is not meant to be offensive to anyone's beliefs regarding the afterlife.

It is the night of December 18th, 2021. In the otherwise quiet college town of Formica, a group of people die at the same time. For different reasons. In different places. When they wake, they can't remember their death. They have no idea what's happened to them. No idea that their soul now rests in eternal slumber, their original body left behind on an entirely different plane.

It's dark. There's a strange, disturbingly sweet smell in the air. All they have on hand is a tiny note:

Welcome to Purgatory.

And a very special welcome to The Cold Hell's 40th annual Elimination Round!

Plot

Your character has died in some way. Post-mortem, their soul drifted towards a realm referred to here on out as simply Purgatory. They wake nearest where they died with no memory of their death and the note above in their hands. It will be up to each of them to locate each other, figure out what's going on, deal with the fallout…and make plans for their future.

But there's a problem. They have not been inducted into the afterlife normally. Rather, they've been brought in as part of a larger game known as the Elimination Round. A scheme of which the origin is quite hazy. The adventure will not end when they are able to look in a mirror, see no reflection, and say "I am dead." Rather, it will have only just begun.

Setting

Purgatory operates using a series of smaller closed realms jokingly called 'Snow Globes.' Each globe houses a single town or plot of land. And, the inside of each globe is split down the middle by a Silver River, on either side of which the town or landscape is mirrored. Spirits experience each half differently.

On the east side of Formica's globe, the town lies in perpetual autumn daylight. Golden yellow, red and brown trees line the streets, drooping. People can be seen interacting or going about their business as if alive. Though many of their eyes are glazed, hollow. Trying to leave is out of the question. Every street, the forest, the surrounding lands, they all loop on themselves, endlessly bringing you back to where you started.

Here the TVs, radios and computers work as normal. But there's something just a little…off…about the way reporters, movie stars and even music tracks speak to you. As if they are judging you personally. Some spirits pray, hoping to purge their sins. Others party, enjoying every hint of sunlight offered and appreciating the fact they didn't really die forever. Still others haunt their homes or try desperately to leave, becoming quickly stuck in the loop.

On the west side, the town lies in a permanent frozen night. The trees are dead. The streets play tricks on you, disappearing and reappearing. On the wind, you can hear terrifying voices growing closer and closer. Almost like growls.The chill in the air makes you shudder.

Here electronics often malfunction, and when they do work, the nightmarish, threatening way everything speaks to you will inspire you to shut them off. Your fellow spirits are not friendly, choosing often to "give up" in some way: doing something irreversible that will transfer them to another plane. Others haunt, but in full malicious intent. Still others hunt their fellow spirits for an essence known as 'soul.' A bridge guarded by stern soldiers prevents you from crossing the River into the east. The surrounding forest does not loop, but does become thicker and darker the deeper you go.

Rumor has it that it is possible to travel to other globes. But then, rumor also has it that it's possible to go back to Earth as it was. What sort of secrets will you be able to dig up?

Returning to rp and chill

@Vampiretwilight Thank you! It's great to meet you then.

@AristoclesI'm glad to be back. I'll definitely check that out today if there's time, a story about goblins sounds like fun.

Returning to rp and chill

Good day. I am not new to this site but I am new to this account and it's been awhile.

I'm not new to rp either, as it's been a favorite past time of mine since I was very young. My favorite genres are fantasy, horror, and supernatural. I prefer longer 'posts,' but to be fair it's also been a long time since I've written anything fiction, rp or otherwise. Quite rusty.

Some of my favorite things are animals, nature and esoterics. Now and then I like to draw or play video games but currently a vision problem is preventing me. It affects my ability to read/write as well, so please forgive me if I make any errors while typing. Additionally, my memory can be quite bad, so I may be the kinda person you have to poke.

Anyway, I look forward to getting into practice again. Nice to meet you all!
