~* Yes or No *~ The RPG Idea Topic V2

[Master Rudy]

Had a couple ideas lately:

Tentative Title-24
Genre-Action/Espionage
Characters needed-CTU agents, terrorists, government officals
Basic Plot-Got a few ideas but need to know what the 24 fan base on TPM is first. For non-fans knowledge of the show would not be needed because except for maybe a cameo here or there (such as President Palmer)there would be no characters from the show. The basic idea is the typical stop the terrorists theme you see with this genre but it would have the usual plot twists you'd see in an episode of 24 not to mention I really want the clock to be a factor in this RPG. For the good guys time will never be on their side in this if I can pull it off right.

Tentative Title-Pirates of the Carribean
Genre-Adventure
Characters needed-Pirates, British Navy
Basic Plot-Very recent idea I had following a talk with JT and Gav. Would have swung it by them if it came to mind before the end of the chat. Anyway right now I don't really have much in the way of ideas. I already know that if I go ahead and come up with something then I've somehow got to get Jack Sparrow into this. IMO his character is that once little bit of uniqueness that makes PotC what it is. Without him it's just simply a basic pirate RPG.

Thoughts and comments more than welcome ^_~

[Asilynne]

24: Though I hate it you already know Id sign up since there will be no chars from the show in it. Id be a computer expert/hacker ^-~

Pirates: Sorry my Rudy but Id have to say All the ideas you have for it have already been done and made into a movie, so all it would be is either a rip off or Jack Sparrow fanservice. With RPGs based on something that is very popular at the moment you have to be careful when planning them. Otherwise its just a "I like Jack Sparrow, let me make an RPG based solely around this one character". It would be almost as if a Legolas fangirl made an RPG 'based' on LoTR so everyone can make carbon copy characters of Legolas. If you want to go Pirate, think of something original that hasnt been seen in movies or anything else, and then make characters with your cast that are completely original but yet are as dynamic as Jack Sparrow but not in the same ways. And sorry if it sounds harsh but I have to tell you cause I love you ^-~

[-/Deathborn/-]

Before I go posting the whole shebang, I thought I put the idea out there for a EUReKA based RPG. For those who do not know, http://www.scifi.com/eureka/about/ and read what this is all about. I thought it would make for a great open-ended RPG. 'Small-town full of geniuses" means plotlines can be infinite. :p

[Fai D. Flowright]

Well, to make a grand return for the winter season, yours truely is entering the scene with a new RPG! But before I go and start making too many plans that could potentially backfire, I'd like to ask you all for your opinions on said game...

With a little inovation, opportunity, and an almost irresistably perfect fit, I've decided to start developing a Sonic the Hedgehog RPG with a completely original plot and all new characters (save the villian, who shall remain unnamed for now). But, in all actuality, how many people here are possibly interested in joining something like this? I have several people already interested, but I need to know if there is enough interest here to fill the nine ideal positions...

Feedback would be most appreciated! Thanks much!

[Shadow Djinn]

I would love to see a Sonic RPG here. What timeline would it be set in?

[Fai D. Flowright]

Well, for SD and others that are wondering, the plot will take place before (but the organization will replicate) Sonic Heroes, and parallel to Sonic X (as per the need for completely original characters).

Hope that helps. If there are more questions, feel free to ask (since I have most of the plot in my head, just not typed and organized yet), but all I'm seriously concerned with ATM is interests.

[Shadow Djinn]

Right, this idea's been stuck in my head since I wrote it (back in 05 I believe..), so I polished it up slightly and decided to see how many people would be interested. This needs some work for finer points, and I'm not sure if a class system ( you know, warrior, magician, rawr, etc..) would suit this more, as there's a lot of aspects that fit with it. But whatevers. You can PM me if you have any ideas and what not.
One person I ran it by had a good question: what are the Loyalists doing? Basically the government doesn't want to instill panic, instead recruiting various Loyalists into a rather special operations squad, mainly focused on eliminating the insurgents. Like I said, it needs a lot of fine tuning.

Tentative Title: Calamity’s Edge
Basis: I dunno really. Random dreams and maybe Fire Emblem/The Bartimaeus Trilogy.
Genre: Fantasy
Characters Needed: Characters from both factions

Basic Plot:

“ First time then.” The commander galloped alongside the taciturn boy, sensing the obvious inexperience that showed in his posture, composure, and overall his attitude.

“ Yes, sir.” The boy responded quietly. The commander shook his head.

“ Not much longer till our Empire falls,” he said.

“ Commander?” The boy said, somewhat shocked. Horror welled inside his adolescent eyes; the commander almost felt sorry for this amateur to be thrust into a losing battle.

“ The Nabulis Empire is growing stronger. Our King’s lost his luster, and our Generals can come up with as many brilliant plans as they want to, but it won’t change the fact that the magic the Nabulis Empire can command will overwhelm us. We’ve got few magicians that are of a respectable degree of power. We can’t combat knights protected by magical shields and unbreakable swords.” The hardened veteran gazed at the road before them.

“ But we’re bringing the peace treaty, aren’t we?” The boy bit his lip. “ For a mutual –“

“ Mutual in war, boy? No.” The commander growled. “ They’re going to take over our Empire. We’re just saving our time and cutting down on the losses.”

Their conversation lapsed into silence – the inexperienced soldier gazed at the trees surrounding the dusty road, and the veteran glancing at a roughly drawn map they had been given.

“ Odd.” He muttered. “ We should’ve arrived at the Atilan River…”

A hiss shattered the momentary silence, a deadly arrow hurtling through the trees in a deadly arc, landing in the middle of the road.
His horse skidded to a stop with a sharp cry; the commander unsheathed his sword and leapt off his mount. Figures could be made out in the damp mist, creeping along the outskirts of the road.

A quick glance at the boy confirmed his suspicions – he was paralyzed by fear.

“ Go.” The commander shouted at the boy. “ If we don’t get the treaty to the capital…”

Shadows emerged from the surrounding undergrowth, obscured by the fog that had fallen over the area.

The boy had set off on a run, sword left forgotten as he clutched a small piece of parchment in his hand, panting rapidly as he set down the road…

Surveying the number of opponents, the commander shook his head. Two pursuers took after the adolescent soldier; he would be killed.

The grip on his sword hardened.

“ Figures,” the veteran muttered. “ To die pointlessly…that’s the way of life, I suppose.”

The shadows sprung.

~

That was five years ago.

The Gallian Empire, previously a thriving empire, had been crushed in a two-year war.

Their neighbor, the Nabulis Empire, surpassed them in all aspects. From the beginning, there had been no hope.

When the Gallian Empire prepared a treaty, the Nabulis Empire had agreed. However, ‘unknown’ assassins had stopped them on the way to the Atilan River, the border between the two warring nations.

Both messengers had been killed, and the Gallian Empire fell a month later, when over two thousand Nabulis soldiers crossed the border and took three poorly defended cities. Their obvious objective was to take the capital.

A calm surrender by the former Gallian King – Tarleton the Second, resulted in a complete take over of the Empire.

The entire continent was dominated by Nabulis.

There had been many survivors of the final battle—labeled the Battle of Canaan Steppe, the vast plain in which the Gallians attempted their last stand before the surrender.

Upon the assimilation of the Gallian Empire, they began to learn the ways of the Nabulis. One strong point the Nabulis had possessed previously was their gift of magic. Gallians had relative inexperience with such aspects. However, like their culture, beliefs, and other ways, they learned.

Eventually, the Gallians gained confidence once more. Public speeches were held, beseeching the citizens to rebel against their empire. While the government stifled such voices, their point had gotten across. Discrete meetings were held, and occasionally Nabulis officials were attacked. Almost simultaneously, cities throughout the Empire had formed an insurgence.

The third night of May, those of high class converged at the capital in the King’s palace.

All seemed fine at first. It was another merry celebration – but in a dimly lit chamber, several military officials had converged to discuss the growing insurgence. They all had different ideas as to how to deal with the rapidly swelling problem.

Thirty minutes into the King’s event, numerous rogues, obscured by the night, attacked the guards patrolling the palace doors.

Unable to report the dilemma, it was not discovered by residents of the palace until the entire bastion was in flames.

The military officials had never finished their meeting before they were forced to evacuate the building.

But they all agreed on one thing.

The insurgence must stop.

Yea, sort of a rough idea at the moment. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Signups would probably look like this.

Insurgence Member:

Name: What you're known as
Alias: Most Resistance members take on another name in their discrete operations, so as to prevent possible connections between them and their normal lives.
Age: No real limit, though they probably wouldn’t accept adolescents.
Gender: Given.
Personality: How you act, your attitude, etc.
History: Your life before the RPG. You’ll want to include how you ended up in the Resistance.
Appearance: What you look like, wear, etc.
Weapon: Obvious. The tool you use to fight with – a sword, a pitchfork, etc.
Allignment: This would be if you’re an insurgence member or one who supports the Empire.
Other Profession: Most members of the Resistance had a job or daily life before they joined the Resistance, and most still maintain it.
Magical Ability: Upon assimilation into the Nabulis Empire, most Gallians have gained small proficiencies in magic. What can you do?
Skills: (rather basic. Abilities you can perform with either your magic or weapon.. This is not limited to healing or casting spells, it can be passive abilities your character possesses. You can have three active skills and three passive. )



Nabulis Loyalist form

Name: What you're known as, obviously.
Age: Again, rather flexible.
Gender: Given.
Personality: How you act, your attitude, etc.
History: Your life before the RPG.
Appearance: What you look like, wear, etc.
Weapon: Obvious. The tool you use to fight with – a sword, a pitchfork, etc.
Allignment: This would be if you’re an insurgence member or one who supports the Empire. You will need to state if you were of the Gallian Empire before it was taken over.
Job: Basic again. What you do to make your living, etc.
Magical Ability: Upon assimilation into the Nabulis Empire, most Gallians have gained small proficiencies in magic. What can you do?
Skills: (rather basic. Abilities you can perform with either your magic or weapon.. This is not limited to healing or casting spells, it can be passive abilities your character possesses. You can have three active skills and three passive. )

[Crystal Tears]

Hey Djinn, I think that sounds rather cool actually. I like the idea, kind of reminds me of FFXII O_o.
After your done fine tuning and what not, I'll gladly join, don't know what side though....

[Shadow Djinn]

Aha, it seems I neglected to mention that. >_>; Yea, I haven't played FFXII in a while, but I guess it mixed in there o_o.

[Dark-San]

Tentative Title: Arms Alchemy
Basis: Busou Renkin, Full Metal Alchemist, Star Wars
Genre: Action, Fantasy, School Life *Possible mature and gore themes*
Characters Needed: Homunculus (Man- eating creatures), Homunculus' followers, Alchemic Warriors, High school students
Basic Plot: In the world that we exist in, there are two kinds of alchemy. One being Busou Renkin (weapon alchemy), an ancient alchemy which is only possible through the usage of Kakugane, an item that is required in order for weapons to be form alchemically. Through the user's mind will to battle, users can create a permanent weapon of their choice to battle each other. It has been ten years since Busou Renkin has already attained much recognition and power through the world. So much so to the envy of others who failed to attain these powers, which are only, bestow to Alchemic Warriors.

Mans' greed is not to under estimated. Some of them in order to find a power, another form of alchemy to rival that of Busou Renkin, ended up re-inventing themselves. That is how the homunculus comes about. A homunculus is created when an embryo-like creation is placed inside a life form (whether would it be a plant, an animal or even a human). They possess great powers to the creatures that they took their form from and they are immortal (in a sense that they do not aged or die of terminal illness). However with such great powers, the homunculus does have a setback. They had to feed on humans frequently in order to boost up their existing energy.

Ever since this newer form of alchemy was discovered, the alchemic warriors swore to wipe out the homunculus race. To such extent that homunculus had to either formed communities to battle the alchemic warriors or seek help from the existing human race who pitied them and shields them.

All these had happened some centuries ago. However ever since, there was a case whereby an entire high school's population disappeared in one day, all news agencies were puzzled at this fact. The population had simply vanished. Nothing was found in the school except for traces of blood and scratches on walls and buildings. No full dead bodies were found. This case was marked as a mystery.

However the modern alchemic warriors knew what had happened, the homunculus race is back. This time the ancient battle between the alchemic warriors and homunculus race had resurfaced again, bringing in chaos to the world we live in today. Would the entire Homo sapiens race be eaten by the homunculus race entirely or would the alchemic warriors battled their way to victory?

[Shadow Djinn]

^Whee, I love Busou Renkin! ^_^ I'd definitely join.

[pokemon4eva]

Title: Pokemon Destiny Reborn
Basis: Pokemon
Characters Needed: Gym leaders, Gym battlers, Nurses, Bad guys, Contest, Frontier brains, Frontier challenger, Police, and G-Man(Lance for example).
Basic Plot: Trainers from all over are gathering in the Musa regon for new battles are there along with 8 more gyms, 7 more frontier sites, over 200 more contests, 500 cities, and 17 more bases(bad guys). Pokemon Trainers Ready, Set, GO!
Other: Someone give me feed back.

[Roy Karrde]

Hey Pokemon4eva, we have something like that right now with ASBRPG. You seem to have some good ideas with it so why don't you get a hold of me sometime and we can work on some ideas for ASBRPG.

[Tyler and Hobbes]

Just something I’ve been kicking around, really have no idea if it’d work or not…

Tentative Title: Protoevangelium: (or Protoevangelion – can’t really decide yet)
Basis: Neon Genesis Evangelion (one key aspect of His Dark Materials thrown in for good measure)
Genre: Apocalyptic Science Fiction, Drama, Psychology (all of this being in the style of the show, so really it doesn’t have to mean anything)
Characters Needed: Um… I’m really gonna need some help with this. I was thinking along the lines of the ten Sephiroth, expressed as: Crown, Wisdom, Understanding, Mercy, Strength, Beauty, Victory, Splendor, Foundation, Kingdom, plus Knowledge (Knowledge being sort of what Kaworu played in the original series, like, a main character, but just not… I’m actually not sure how to express these thoughts -_-; ), incarnated in children, all aged 12/13/14, and maybe some average folks, or people apart of an overall plot of… evil-ness … Again, I’m really gonna need some help with this -_-;.
Basic Plot: This would be a prequel of sorts, so almost none of the main characters of NGE would be alive (well, at least the main Children wouldn’t, and those slightly older would still be completely unaware of the main NERV plot). The Second Impact has just occurred. As far as any of the Sephiroth (what I am now calling the main characters ^_^!!!) know, one day a massive meteorite fell from the sky into Antarctica, and the world was changed forever. The Sephiroth are the children who have survived the massive destruction caused by the Second Impact: floods, famines, earthquakes, wars and rumors of wars, as if the very earth itself was rebelling. Umm… apparently the Impact has affected children in such a way, specifically these ten children, that their very existence is problematic. Inside the children are “sparks” of radiation (at least, that’s what they’ve been told) which the government has labeled “Dust”. This Dust could in fact allow the children to talk to Adam, though as far as they know they’re just hearing voices. But it’s not just one voice. Other voices are there too, millions and millions of screaming voices. A small section of the government (US? British? Japanese? Probably the UN; haven’t really decided yet), dubbed the “Master Mahan”, has been charged with investigations into this, and so ten children are spirited away in hopes of being test subjects for experiments, so that the Master Mahan may cut away the Dust, to harness it, in hopes of reviving Adam, the first angel, and the cause of the Second Impact. So the children have to escape, avoid the Master Mahan, convince themselves and others they shouldn’t be locked away in an asylum, avoid all the natural disasters and wars which they are becoming increasingly more knowledgeable on (the angels tell them what will happen; before it happens, some of them), and figure out what exactly is going on. Oh, and the children are being taught all about astrology, astronomy, war, and abortion by the voices in their heads
Other: Yeah, as you can see, I really need help. Also, I kinda rushed through this, so if you don’t understand, it’s okay. When the general sign-up comes out (assuming anyone understands and/or remotely likes the idea) I’ll be sure to explain every detail without resorting to, “Just because! It’s mysterious like that.”, including those that directly have to do with NGE.

Edit - Wow. Seeing it on screen makes it seem less like a coherent plot and more like the ramblings of a crazy person.

[EngiMatikul]

Coincidentally I think leaving an open plot like that would probably work better than if you tried to plan the whole RPG out from head to toe. I don't know how much you want to base your RPG off of Evangelion, but I've watched Eva (admittedly, a while ago) and I completely missed all of the names of the angels :p regardless, your RPG seems to fairly clear (in short it seems, basically, like a "run away from the bad guy" RPG), I think, in comparison with your other RPGs, which needs a lot more direction than this one.

[Mystic_clown]

I really like this idea. You should go for it dude!

[Perfect Chaos]

Tentative Title: Pokemorphs
Basis: Pokemon/Animorphs
Genre: Sci-Fi, Action, Drama
Characters Needed: People to play as the Pokemorphs, maybe villains too (not too sure about that too).
Basic Plot: In today's universe, Pokemon and people live on Earth in peaceful harmony. However, not all is really how its perceived to be...

"We can't tell you who we are. Or where we live. It's too risky, and we've got to be careful. Really careful. So we don't trust anyone. Because if they find us...well, we just won't let them find us.

The thing you should know is that everyone is in really big trouble. Yeah. Even you."

-Taken from the back of all the Animorphs novels.

An evil alien race of parasitic slugs known as the Yeerks have been traveling the universe, enslaving all other sentient species through methods of brain-washing. However, the Yeerks are currently opposed by a race of Mews that have been battling them for quite some time. Despite their efforts, the Yeerk influence still continues to spread across the galaxy. Their next target: Planet Earth.

Enter a group of Pokemon trainers. By twist of fate (or sheer dumb luck?) they encounter an fallen Mew warrior who bestows upon them the power to absorb DNA of their Pokemon and literally morph into a duplicate form!

With this newly bestowed power, will these new found "Pokemorphs" be able find it in themselves to stop this evil menace and save the entire universe? As the title song goes for the Animorphs show, "Its all in your hands...."

Other: Well, I know this RPG has popped up here and there once and a while. But, as Roy knows, I'm trying to make a comeback into the RPG forums. Although I haven't been participating lately, I still come through and browse the RPG topics and my soft spot for RPG has grown even more each time I visit. So guys, I really hope you look into this RPG and think about joining it.

[Roy Karrde]

Time to see if I can bring this old topic back with a idea that has been floating around while I drove today.

Tentative Title: Stories High * Tentative *
Basis: Old High School RPGs
Genre: Character Crossover / High School
Characters Needed: Teachers/Staff/Students
Basic Plot: What happens to all those RPG Characters before and after adventures? They can't just sit around waiting for the next story to happen. So they go to Stories High, what may seem like a normal high school on the outside, contains many useful and unique cources on the inside! Yes it still has the basics, algebra, history, literature. But also unique and useful cources, machine gun targeting range, sword fighting, magic spell chanting. It's Stories High! where characters come to learn.

In other words: This is a High School RPG where you can bring in old RPG Characters you have created through out the years.
Other: This is in responce to all those 'We Want a High School RPG'

[Asilynne]

Thats a good idea Roy very interesting XD I can just imagine some of my characters going to that school and all the crazy shizz that would happen XDDD You should write it up and I shall have to take a look at it :>

[Mystic_clown]

That is just plain awesome. Do it Roy!

[pokemon4eva]

[Mystic_clown]

Title: Chambre des Plaisirs Terrestres
Basis: A certain Simpsons episode
Genre: Comedy, Drama, maybe some Romance and Action
Characters needed: people working at the House, clients and those who want the House shut down.
Basic Plot:

From the outside, it seems like a regular house. The largest in the street and from how it looks, definitely the oldest.

However, if one stopped and watched it for a while, you’d notice just how popular this house is, with numerous people entering and leaving and if you listened carefully, how lively it sounds inside, mostly at night, but sometimes during the day.

This is no ordinary house.

This, is the Chambre des Plaisirs Terrestres, the House of Earthly Delights.

A burlesque house where one can come for a variety of entertainments, for a game of cards, a few drinks and laughs and in the later hours, a little piece of eye candy.

Of course, while the house has a large cliental, there have been a number of people who disprove of the House’s activities. Moral groups, member of the police and city counsel, but the house has survived them all, namely because a number of authority figures rather enter and enjoy the house rather than close it down.

However, one threat to the house has made itself known, one that may mean the end of the house.

An over moralistic parent.

This person will stop at nothing to see the House shut down and has shown an opportunity for all those against the House. This person will make sure it goes down, by any means necessary.

But while this threat is present, the show must go on, the delights must keep on coming.

And so, welcome, to the House of Earthly Delights.

[Mew Master]

Tentative Title: Dragon Wars 2: D-War Apocalypse
Basis: Modern day
Genre: Fantasy, War-campaign
Characters Needed: Dragons, Humans, Dragon-choosen, grunt soldiers/warriors/dragon-slayers/ect...
Basic Plot: After the defeat of Buraki by the dragon of heaven, and the information boom caused by Buraki's invasion, the world has spun into chaos. A shift in power has affected the earth and the realm of the heaven and hell dragons. Both sides must now prepare for a battle that could destroy the world and everything in it. As claws and fire fly, Dragon will turn against Dragon for thier own bids for power and survival, and the humans will be caught in the crossfire.
Other: Movie was good. Anticlimatic, but I think they could make a sequel.

[Mew Master]

Tentative Title: Spiritual Divide
Basis: Modern world, present day
Genre: Fantasy
Characters Needed: Participants of two opposing factions, those with a single spirit, and those with two, and those who are neutral to both parties.
Basic Plot: The spirit, the soul. These items are used as the defining terms of what makes us human. One soul to one person, that is the way it is supposed to be. But what if a single person has two souls? Both needed to make him complete. Opposing forces of logic and chaos, light and dark, yin and yang that if one is removed, the individual will die.

Individuals of this Dual Soul nature are hunted, by those who view their very exsistence as blasphemy. They summon their own souls into the physical world. Physical manifestations of their own spirits that may differ greatly between people, and hold tremendous power.

As both sides of this conflict begin to build, a showdown between the Duals and the Single Souls is no doubt about to unfold, and no one can escape the crossfire.
Other: Yeah, I've been having weird ideas as of late. Esspecially intriging is the idea of a person who needs two different souls to remain "in balance" and the two souls constantly struggling for control.

[Mystic_clown]

Well, even though my most recent RPG didn't stand a chance, I'm thinking of maybe doing a joint project. I'm thinking of doing something based on the awesome Xbox 360/CPU game, Bioshock. Anyone interested?

[Shizo]

Well, I do love the Bioshock, but I wouldn't be the best person to collaborate with. I'd definitely joined if it popped into existence, though.

Also, Mew Master, you're idea is cool. I'm always for the dualities paradigm.

[Mystic_clown]

Well, I'd gladly listen to any idea you may have. anyone else want to help?

[Roy Karrde]

Tentative Title: The Loss of Innocence, The Loss of Life
Basis: Creating a Star Wars RPG that will be opening to people that do not know the movies or series.
Genre: Sci Fi, Survival
Characters Needed: Humans and Aliens, In the Teen to Late Teen ages
Basic Plot: They came with out warning, out from beyond the galaxy came a force that spread across like locust. The Yuuzhan Vong, horrible and disgusting warriors who had a hatred for technology, instead using biological beasts of burden to further their war and their travel through the stars.

For the citizens of the lush planet of Dubrillion, the lights of Corucant, and the mystics known as the Jedi seemed to be as far away as possible. They could care less about the Imperials or the New Republic, as far as they were concerned that war had left the planet twenty or so years ago. Living on the outer rim at the far edge of the galaxy, the planet of Dubrillion remained untouched by many ravages of the wars.

As teenagers living on the planet, you really do not care about what a Imperial is, or what a New Republic officer is. You are just working your way up through High School and preparing to start a career out in the far reaches of the galaxy.

Yet even though you live on such a back water world, you still hear some of the latest rumors, and the one that is circuling around seems more than intriguing. That the New Republic faught off some strange aliens in a system very close by. That these aliens were powerful and not of this Galaxy, and attacked with ships that were never seen before.

This rumor seems to grow and spread with each passing day, and even as you and your friends go on a day long camping trip, it is all many of you seem to be able to talk about.

During that night you watch a meteor shower light up the sky above, it seems beautiful yet at the same time you remember the rumors about the alien ships, how they were different than anything seen before.

The next morning you return to your small farming town only to find it deserted, there are signs of a fire fight and a bit of a struggle, but not a single body in sight. The town is a entire ghost town. Worse yet every single useable machine from computers to speeders are destroyed. There is also a wierd red fungus growing around some of the houses, and on the ground.

With your friends and family gone and possibly dead, your only choice is to make the three day journey to the local space port on foot. Yet as you walk, the wild life seems to be transforming before your eyes, plants become poisonous and try to attack you. Animals grow wierd growths on them and become just as aggressive as they mutate into something.

Something is happening to your home, something is changing it, transforming it to some kind of alien world. Can you survive? Can you rescue your friends and family? And can you escape what ever force has conquered your planet?

Other: As said above I am trying to make a Survival RPG set in the Star Wars Universe, but at the same time does not lean very heavily on Star Wars lore. No Jedi's here, no Imperials or Sith, no Republic versus Imperials. Just a group of kids trying to find their family and get off a planet that is quickly being transformed. Also I will allow a few Force Sensatives, but no actual trained Jedis. Those that are force sensative will learn of their powers as we progress.

[kalad1]

Tentative title: Shattered Memories, Shattered Hearts
Basis:Fairy tales, Fables, and works such as Alice in Wonderland and Peter Pan
Genre: Fantasy, Adventure
Characters needed: Lost Children who are now mid to late teenagers
Basic Plot:
For ages, people have told tales large and small of fantastical adventures and events. Pigs building houses, woodsmen saving children from wolves, giant beanstalks and more. These tales, however, are not drawn from pure fantasy or imagination, they are drawn from the world of ______, the land where these tales live.

It is a fantastic world, where magic exists and amazing creatures walk the earth. A place where the mad can have power, where pirates both noble and vile still sail the seas, and where kingdoms vie for power. A world many people would consider utterly backwards and barbaric.

However, there are also tales told of children ending up in another world, whether it be Neverland, Oz, or even Wonderland. These events happened, but not as written. The children involved were lost, tragic events causing them to stumble upon a gateway between the worlds, sending them into a land alien to them.

The journey has the unfortunate effect of damaging the memories of those that undergo it, leaving them with little more than half remembered concepts and images in their heads. Forced to fend for themselves, many become people of note.

You are one of these 'Lost Children', having found your way over the years, always knowing something was missing, parents, a life you once knew but cannot remember. But now, dark things are spreading through the kingdom, dark things that are clearly not of the world, some of which seem familiar. Might this be a way to find your lost past? Might this be a way... home?




There we go, haven't decided on a name for the fairytale world though, I am open to suggestions.

[Mew Master]

Tentative Title: Omnitrix
Basis: Ben 10 World...ish, Modern world, present day
Genre: Sci-Fi
Characters Needed: Plumers, Rouges, Aliens, Humans/Aliens with various Omnitrix
Basic Plot: This takes place alternate from the show. Instead of one Omnitrix created, there were several. Spread across the Galaxy to bring wisdom to the universe, they are searched after by the original inventors as well as rouges, and those who want the power. It's up to the users of the Omnitrix to save their own lives as well as protect the item that gives them so much power and ability. If they aren't corrupted by it first...
Other: Eh... been on a Ben 10 kick as of late.. don't ask.

Hmm.....I like Roy's idea for a Star Wars RPG. It gets away from the typical Jedi vs Sith/Empire vs Rebellion stuff.

Anyway I've got one that I want to gauge intrest in:

Tentative Title-Jericho: The Second American Civil War
Basis-Civil War/Jericho universe
Genre-Action/Adventure
Characters Needed-Anyone over the age of 16 in any of the following groups:
The good guys
The residents of Jericho (Can be anyone from a townsperson to a member of the Sheriff's Department)
The Eastern States of America (What's left of the "true" USA)
The Independent Republic of Texas (Now it's own nation)

The bad guys
The Allied States of America (the corrupt government that has taken overmost of the USA)
Ravenwood (Merc's in the employ of the ASA. Common law and rules of engagement do not apply to them)

Basic Plot-Partly taken from the 2nd season intro with edits
Jericho....a small town in Kansas that witnessed a series of nuclear attacks that destroyed 23 American cities in a single day. The attacks crippled and fractured the US Government and left the town cut off from the world. But even in the worst of times it's possible to find to best in ourselves and in others......
Robert Hawkins....a former covert agent for the CIA who's mission was to go undercover and stop the attacks. Unknown to him the mission was designed to fail from the start by the very people he worked for. Those that seeked power hunted him for the secret he held......the nuclear bomb that was meant for Columbus, Ohio. It was the smoking gun behind the greatest crime in the history of the world. Hawkins actions saved Columbus and also prevented the attack on New York City. Now the ASA faces it's own problems. The government they tried to destroy is weak but has survived and now has the support of the Independant Republic of Texas. This however has brought a new set of problems to the town of Jericho. It's central location could be used as a staging area to determine the outcome of the coming war. However it lies in the middle of what is technically the territory of the ASA. Cut off from the ESA and the IRT the town has now been declared a "center of resistance" by the ASA propaganda machine......and time is running out.......

Other-First off this would take some creative muscle to get off the ground. Second a knowledge of Jericho would not be needed but it would be welcomed. Finally I want original characters but I don't want to see a ton of relations to the existing cast. I'm not saying it'd be out of the question but it would have to make sense. Also as far as characters are concerned I may be willing to let an existing character slide if I could be convinced that an RPer won't bring someone too far OOC. Mainly I want to gauge intrest and see if I have something promising. The concept of a modern Civil War has potential to be an intresting concept. However Jericho lends itself nicely by giving a nice lead up to the conflict. The town in the first season was literally in the middle of nowhere and trying to survive since it was effectively cut off from the world. Now it's smack in the middle of everything about to go down.

Fan of the show or not you've got to admit this thing's got some nice potential! ^_~

To Master Mew: No waaaaai! ^o^ That idea looks really good, we need some of that in here! I'd join...I'd join as...a girl with an Omnitrix, with a fetish for war and destruction, but is too lazy to go do bad things. Sh-bam! XD

Okay, so I just finished typing all the rules and the introduction out. I just wanted to see if anyone else would want to come play with me

Tentative Title: House
Basis: Yu-gi-oh World
Genre: Horror, stragety (-,- Sp?)
Characters Needed: Cannon Characters from the show would be prefered, but made ups will be considered.

Basic Plot: In the world were children can go to school for dueling, what is next? Why, a hotel for dueling, of course! No money, no worries, just dueling! The world's best duelist have been called upon to test run the hotel. Behold! A grand five star hotel were the House Rules of the only thing to worry but, but...as the cast will soon find out, there's more to this House then meets the eyes. They'll be pitted against each other, and yet have to rely on each other, in order to get out alive. The only way out is in.

Other: ^,^ Based on House by Frank Peretti and Ted Dekker. The game is timed by the roll of a die, Yu-gi-oh cards will be used, and, um...think of it like a Yu-gi-oh version of D&D. Interactive and intense! Like clowns, they live in tents ^_^.

Genre: Survival

Characters Needed: Young Animals: Lion Cubs, Panther Cubs, Baby Giraffes, Baby Eagles, Baby Elephants. Basically Children of any animal you can think of in a major zoo.

Basic Plot: In the future wars and global warming has turned the world into a vast wasteland, humans have become tribes hunting in nomad packs for food, and nations no longer exist. Every city you know has been destroyed in one way or the other, and what were once green fields, is nothing more than barren desert. The animals that live in the New York Zoo now run free inside of the surrounding area, barely surving for food. As a child, you can see the hunger in your parents eyes, the starvation in their body, as night after night you go hungry from the food sources dwindling. When a tribe of humans comes in and scatters your pride, you are left alone and starving. Together you meet up with other animals, some meet eaters, some herbavores, but all of them young and alone. You know staying means starvation, but the world out there is a wild place. But there is a rumor, a myth, that some where west, far outside the city, lies a hidden world, some where humans cannot touch, some where green and free of the blight that has attacked the world. A lost world of sorts where ou can live in paradise. With no other choice but to go or die, you and your friends set out to brave the wild, and try to find this Lost World

Other: Got the idea from thinking of the Land Before Time, and PokemonLuver's old character: Loki.

Tentative Title: Case Designate: CLOVERFEILD
Basis: Modern World, Present Day
Genre: Horror, Sci-Fi, Survival Horror, Suspense
Characters Needed: Civilians, Turango Executives/employees, Military officers and High Brass
Basic Plot:

Manhattan was leveled in the course of a single day. The only traceable record of the event were the personal video cameras, cell phones, and cam-corders that the residence used to document the strange events. The case designate for the majority of the military's understanding of what transpired is a video camera that belonged to a young man named Rob Hawkins.

What some did not know, was that a week prior to Manhattan being attacked, Tokyo proper was also assaulted by a strange monster. A massive company conglomerate managed to keep a media blackout on the whole incident, claiming it akin to a large scale terrorist attack. Rumors are still circulating.

Despite the government lock-down on all videos pertaining to the event, they are still in the dark as to what happened, and the general populace is even worse off.

Now, in Miami, events are starting again. Oil tanker's going down along the east coast, oil rigs with the workers missing. Finally, IT hits.

The creature that attacked Tokyo and New York rises from the deep, its reasons, emotions, and origins unknown to everyone. The Millitary wants to destroy it, Turango wants to study it, and the civilians just want to survive it...

"It's still alive..."

Other: Yeah, Cloverfield was the best monster movie (next to Godzilla of course), and now that I have the DVD, the idea of an RPG based around the humans who suffer through the event sounds like a fun idea. Any takers?

Tentative Title: Supernatural Academy
Basis: Rosario Vampire
Genre: High School, Romantic Comedy, Supernatural, Horror
Characters Needed: Few humans, other random supernatural creatures from the history of the world.
Basic Plot: A school for the supernatural teenagers. In order to blend in with human society they take classes similar to humans, even join clubs, and have similar problems. However, this is a school for "monsters." Werewolves, vampires, dragons, lizardmen, succubi, witches and warlocks, mermaids, any and all monsters and supernatural creatures. However, they have to stay in their normal human forms or else they risk being expelled. So much are they conserned for keeping their existance secret, that it's part of their training.

Despite the efforts to keep humans out, a few have somehow managed to find their way to the school. Should they be known to the student body, they'll end up as prey for those who suppress their raw natures.

If they don't fall in love first.
Other: Yeah... I thought this would be a fun RPG based in a high-school setting letting people be the supernatural creature (or human) of their choice... I'll wait for some feedback.

[Mystic_clown]

hmm, the supernatural academy sounds like a good idea. the plot could use some work, bu the premise is good.

Then, one day... odd things start happening. People begin to disappear, and turn up in pieces, or not at all. Strange creatures are seen lurking in the shadows at night. Chaos once again begins to take hold...
Other: Perhaps set in the ruins of LA. We're looking at the practicality of this...

Admit it. College would have been more fun if you were allowed to blow up the instructors. And you really would have liked to major in Military Biology, Anti-Social Sciences, Double-Entendre Bookkeeping, or Computer Wizardry. Too bad you didn't know about IOU.

Illuminati University is THE best place to learn Things Man Was Not Meant To Know. With departments like Weird and Unusual Science and Engineering, Inapplicable Mathematics, Misanthropology, and Zen Surrealism . . . not to mention extracurricular activities like Democrats for Cthulhu, Moopsball, and food fights that set off nuclear alerts . . . this is college as it should have been. And gadgets? Everything from the Crockpot of the Gods to the Enigmatic Alien Device Button-Pushing Table.

IOU takes you from creating a character to enrolling in classes, to study, finals, and the occasional academic blood feud, all the way to graduation.

If you survive.
Other: Based on a Table Top Game where your's truly could actually play AS ~DR, the ART GOD.... with no followers (we start gaming this weekend for it ^^). Also... 3000th POST!!! W00t!!!

Basis: Anime Wars from the olden days
Genre: Anime, Game, RPG, Fighting
Characters Needed: Any character ranging from Anime, Video Game, Manga, Comic Book, RPG, TV Show, CNN.
Basic Plot: He is called ‘The Beyonder’ it is not his original name, nor was a name he decided on, it was given to him by those that first recognized his presence, a being that came from beyond the known anime universe, it’s powers unmatched by anything ever witnessed. Although they never knew it, the beyonder had been watching the Anime Universe for years. Studying the entire universe with his own omnipresence, he considered himself the true God of the Anime Universe. No one knew how he came to be, not even he remembers how he began, only that he was alive long before there was life.

Yet as the years past, he became bored, the universe had become stagnant in many ways, lacking in the creativity that he believed his artful hand could produce. He tried many ways to settle this boredom; he dabbled in other universes, to which he quickly became bored with. He even tried to guide the events of the anime universe.

Soon all he could think about was how bored he was, and thus one day he finally decided to take radical steps to correct his boredom. He created a world on the far reaches of the galaxy, dubbing it the name ‘War World’. The planet varied from rocky and desolate, to lush and green. With the project completed, the Beyonder searched not only the Anime Universe, but other universes for participants, abducting those that he believed would provide him with the most entertainment.

When he was done, all the pieces were put in place for the very first…

Anime Wars
Other: The actual battle system will be done kind of in a RPG Tourny form but faster, where each quick battle is done in Attack and Defense. The attacker writes their post, then the person on defense writes their post. The better post wins out, and the loser loses some of their Health Points.
