[Houndoom_Lover]

Hmm! Hmmm! Well, if you wanna do it :3 Do it. You has my approval, yes. I approve of stuff. Like ham and stuff.

[abirkin2]

Tentative Title: Annals of Fallen Albion
Basis: original
Genre: Near future post-apocalyptic urban fantasy and horror
Characters Needed: Humans, Demon Blooded, Demons, others.
Basic Plot: In the year 2067, a cataclysm rocked the British Isles, a massive, unprecedented volcanic event occurred in the waters between Britain and Scotland, joining the two and choking the skies with ash, after the initial widespread panic began to subside, eerie events began to occur, increased reports of mysterious killings, more rural villages losing communications, and strange fog rolling in, and, of course, the Ash Clouds continuing to cast the sky a gloomy grey most days.

One Year after the eruption of Mt Mordred, things collapsed completely when a major military base was completely destroyed by creatures that were called by the few survivors as 'Demons' or 'Monsters', most other major military installations were struck in quick succession as more and more of these Demons made their presence known, throwing the Isles into an anarchic state. The UN, after an emergency meeting, declared a total quarantine of the British Isles, save for specially authorized Coalition research and strike teams.

Our story starts fourty years later, in the demon occupied and ruled British Isles, now collectively known as Fallen Albion. Will you Survive?
Other: There are more setting details, but this seemed an appropriate amount for a quick pitch

[Celestial Blade]

I need a plot for a decent Pokemon Sentai RP (Sentai as in, stuff like "Power Rangers" or "Kamen Rider", y'know). I keep drawing blanks.

[Houndoom_Lover]

"Daisy...Daisy..."

And Deadspace hadda baby and made this :3 I'd join that shiznat, I'd join hardcore. I'd join so hard, I'd send my profile into the future.....

I'd say the genre is Sci-fi Horror ^-^

[Asilynne]

YES SIE like I told you already I demand sexy rpg-ness XDDD

[Master Rudy]

I'm usually not one for pitching my own ideas since I'm far from a decent GM. However the board needs something different and I just so happen to be in a bit of an old school gaming mood. So with that I present to you:

Tentative Title-The Arcadian Chronicles

Basis-RPG set in the normal Mega Man universe (Original Series, X1-6, Zero timeline, ignores X7&8 and ZX!)

Genre-Action/adventure

Characters Needed-Humans and Reploids mainly. Toying with the idea of allowing what I would call Aguments (in short humans with Reploid style enhancements). Pre-existing characters would be few and far between if I even allowed them in the first place since the primary cast died either way before or during the Zero series. If I did allow a pre-existing character then your going to need a damn good reason to explain how the hell they are alive considering some have been dead/destroyed anywhere between a few years to 200+ years as of the end of the Zero series.

Basic Plot-It's the early 24th century. The Robot/Maverick Wars have truely come to an end. However it came at a great cost. Zero and X are gone and the world is still trying desperately to recover from the colony disaster at the end of X5. Humanity and Reploids have finally come together and the resulting research from scientists on both ends is slowly starting to repair the world. Maverick attacks are few and far between and even then the Reploids in question aren't Mavericks in the true sense of the word since the Sigma/Zero virus has been totally wiped out. All is not well however.....a mysterious new group of robots have appeared from seemingly nowhere. Some are Reploids, yet others appear to have what could only be called an extremely outdated design. These older models more than make up for their weakness with sheer numbers. With rumors abound to the nature of the attack a stranger known only as L appears. He offers them advice that helps to slow the destruction but it's obvious that he seems to know perhaps a bit too much. Who is L? Is he a human or a Reploid? What does he really know about the threat that has him so worried? Is he the one truely behind is and merely seeking to become a false hero or is there something more to all of this?

Other-Knowledge of the series is a plus but not needed. Also since I've never personally done my own RPG before I may be looking for someone to help me out. If I go the route of having a second person then basic knowledge of the series would be extremely helpful for when it comes time to bounce ideas back and forth.

Now I don't know if I'll do this or not yet. I've got a basic idea and gameplan. However the most important thing right now is trying to gauge intrest.

[Houndoom_Lover]

Yes. .o.

[Blademaster]

Interest gauged.

[Master Rudy]

Well I'm happy to see that there is some potential intrest in this one. I already know what blade likes about it. What about you Houndy? Any likes or dislikes in regards to my idea?

Also is anyone else overly intrested in it?

[Darth CookieMonster]

Well I have no idea what Megaman is really about. But I wanna be a dude with an arm cannon. And I am pretty sure i would get an understanding somehow. So yeah what I am saying is, I am interested.

[Mew Master]

Tentative Title: Ouran Host Club
Basis: Modern Day
Genre: High School Romantic Comedy
Characters Needed: Rich good looking boys, young women to "woo" over them, and a few poor students caught in the middle of the chaos. Character Types: Loli-boy, Stoic, Prince, Devilish Brothers, Intellect, ect. And at least one girl who can be mistaken for a guy.
Basic Plot: Ouran Academy is the highest of the high class schools. Here boys with too much time on their hands entertain fine young ladies also with way too much time on their hands. However a few poor students who managed to pass the enterance exams have managed to make it to Ouran get involved.
Other: Yeah, I'm officially crazy. @_#

[Houndoom_Lover]

I just fucking love Mega Man :3

And that's a good manga, Mew of the Masters.

I want a Mario&Luigi one, but I'll wait for a while until everyone has had a chance to play the newst game X3

[Houndoom_Lover]

HEY, remember back in the day when this thread had a rule where you needed to comment on others idea. Yeah- I'd ENJOY THAT right now -_-

Tentative Title: Princess and the Frog 2 <- lame title, help me with that

Basis: mid-1920s New Orleans

Genre: Fantasty

Characters Needed: Characters from the movie

Other characters (made ups) will be allowed

Basic Plot: I try not to create a big strict plot, so here's what I have so far. The Shadowman has (Spoiler:) found away to come back from where ever he was dragged and now seeks revenge...only catch is that (Spoiler:) in order to stay on this side, he needs to fulfill his promise in giving (Spoiler:) all the wayward souls to them. There. That's our skeleton plot.

Other: Maybe I should wait until enough people have seen it?

Also, if anyone has seen it yet :B Would you want to co-host it with me?



-------- ------------ ---------------


Tentative Title: Chocolate Wars (I know that's a name of a book. Its completely unrelated, that book, to this roleplay...sorta)

Basis: Alternate reality. It's basically like the one we live in, only slightly more technological advanced and other things...

Genre: Fantasy/Sci-fi

Characters Needed: We'll need students at college level and scientists and maybe a teacher or two. I'll allow one child genius...we'll also need guys in charge...

Basic Plot:

There are thousands of other realities outside our own. This is one of them. It's virtually identical to ours except for two things. One) They're technology is years ahead of us. and Two) Chocolate was unheard of until 20 year ago...20 years ago, a horrible plague shot through the land.

The world looked to their scientists for a cure. Two of the world's known greatest were at the top of the race to find a cure, their names: Mr. Wonka and Mr. Fickelgruber.

No one is sure who found the cure first. But by the cultivating of a rare bean in the remote forests of the Rain Forest, they were able to create chocolate. The chocolate stopped the plague from attacking the brain's chemicals...Mr. Wonka and Mr. Fickelgruber saved the world.

They left their fellow scientist and built a factory dedicated to their work. But, as the story goes, Mr. Fickelgruber got greedy and Mr. Wonka got paranoid, the two separated, and built separate factories that just about faced each other....

The two built their factories on the outskirts of the University of Cadbury, were they can literally snatch the brightest minds from the school to work for them...

Last night, a ten year old boy was admitted to the hospital with 'suspicious symptom'...


Other: :L Looks good so far, huh...

[Roy Karrde]

Been tossing around ideas for a few different RPGs, I will be updating this as I post all 3 of them

Tentative Title: Star Wars: Hidden Thoughts
Basis: Star Wars Old Republic, Fire Fly
Genre: Action/Adventure/Chase
Characters Needed: Various roles for the pirates that make up the ship

Basic Plot: Nearly 1,000 years before the Empire swept to power, the Grand Republic of the Galaxy was embroiled in a war that had brought it to its knees. The New Sith Empire, long thought on the verge of collapse after centuries of fighting, swept across the galaxy with amazing force. Lead under the charismatic Lord Kaan, and his Brotherhood of Darkness, the New Sith Empire captured numerous systems, and those that didn’t fall to it’s strength, joined willingly after fallen under the charm of Lord Kaan.

The Republic was sent wheeling backwards, forced to defend system after system from the Sith’s armies, the Republic is forced to turn to a untested leader, and the Army of Light, a fighting force mixed with Jedi and Republic troops, which has turned to recruiting force sensitive children to fill its ranks.

After years of fighting, the Sith were poised to attack the core systems, with a dagger pointed directly at Coruscant, the Republic’s seat of power. It comes to the surprise of every one when the New Sith Empire declares a ceasefire at their moment of victory. The Republic jumps on this opportunity, using it to gather supplies and forces, while trying to figure out how to snatch victory from the jaws of defeat.

For the crew of the Theif’s Shadow, the time is perfect to make some extra money; the ceasefire allows them to travel across enemy lines with out the fear of finding themselves jumping into the middle of a battle. It also allows them to smuggle goods to needy worlds that have been ravaged by war, as well as sneak Jedi and Sith across enemy lines.

On one of these missions they are tasked with picking up a Jedi lost behind enemy lines, the lost Jedi is retrieved, but dies enroute back to Republic lines, with his last breath he tells of the true reason the cease fire was called. The Sith have discovered a ancient device, one capable of destroying all life on a planet with a single bomb.

This revelation is only one step upon a larger adventure for the crew, as they find themselves on the run from the Sith, along with numerous worlds who would gladly see the war end, even if it meant a Republic defeat, as well as forces acting within the Republic willing to let billions die if it meant a hasty end to the war.

Can the crew warn the Republic in time to save the lives of everyone on Courscant, or will they find themselves the subjects of a New Sith Empire by the time they arrive back.


Other: I really wanted to do a Sci Fi based story, and doing one in a relatively new part of the Star Wars Universe, while focusing more on the criminal element of smugglers and thieves instead of Jedi seemed like a new direction to go. This story does take place in a actual time period in Star Wars mythology.

Or

Tentative Title: The World Ends With Us ( Not related to the Square Game )
Basis: Just laying in bed trying to go to sleep, Green Lantern
Genre: Action/Adventure/Drama
Characters Needed: The 7 chosen ones to bring about the end of the world

Basic Plot: Rape, Murder, Economic Disaster, Terrorism, Floods, Tsunamis, Global Warming. The World is dying, it's very soul slowly rotting away under the darkness that has slowly grown to engulf it, burying into it like a cancer. As a young adult, either still in school or at your very first job, you can feel that this isn't how the world is supposed to be, that there is something more than the darkness and depression that has seemingly engulfed everything.

As you walk home one day, you find what looks like a strange colored ring glistening in the grass. At first you ignore it only to find yourself compelled to take it, to place it on your finger. It is with this that you understand what is happening to the world, that like with the old biblical tale of Noah, that it has become rotten and evil, that if it continues upon its path, it will become a hellish world filled only with death and suffering. And that like Noah, the only way to save it is a cleansing flood, to start anew.

With a ring representing one of the seven human emotions, you journey across Earth with the others who have also found similar rings. Journeying to ancient temples that will begin the process of restoring the world to health and beauty. There is how ever one out there who will do everything to stop you, one who represents death and who wishes to see the world continue it's decent into hell.

Death will do everything to stop you, to divide you, to do everything possible to prevent you from completing your task. The stakes are high, as either way the world as you know it will end. What becomes of it after wards is up to you.

Other: Again this all came to me at nearly 1 am at night, with the power rings just being a after thought. I thought it would be interesting that instead of having a RPG where you save the world. You are destroying it for the greater good, and the villain on the other hand is trying to save what we currently view as civilization.

[Outlaw JT]

First things first I suppose....

Comment: Roy's recent Star Wars idea. Not terribly original but fairly well conceived. Placed in a good point in the timeline so you can monkey around with your own characters and plot inventions without having to worry too much about messing with established chronologies. I already have a character in mind who might fit nicely. Del, the jaded Warden of the Sky who rails against both the Jedi and Sith traditions who tries to keep things simple by just staking out his own section of the galactic skies to protect, swept up into a galaxy spanning race that makes him work for and against the two force traditions that he clashes with so readily.


Tentative Title: Dragon Age: Land of the Fallen
Basis: Obviously, Dragon Age: Origins
Genre: action/adventure/fantasy
Characters Needed: a single leader, warriors, rogues, and mages of varying types.
Basic Plot: I don't plan to write out a detailed plot unless I feel there's enough support to make this into a fulfilling rpg. The basic plot, though, is this: Shortly after the end of the last blight a mysterious man claiming to be a Grey Warden emerges from the Deep Roads into Orzammar. He claims to have a message of vital importance for his order and is escorted to the surface by a small honor guard to find them. In spite of a strange illness that magic seems to have no effect on he holds on long enough to meet with the surviving members of the Warden's from the blight. He spins a tale of a lost city in the Deep Roads held by Grey Warden's and a long lost secret of the order and of the impending threat on both because of the darkspawn's retreat back underground at the end of the Blight. The rpg will follow those who are chosen or volunteer to investigate the outlandish claims of the mystery Warden.
Other: Please PM me if you're interested as it's likely the only way I'll see whether there's any genuine interest or not.

[Houndoom_Lover]

I never played Dragon Age Origins, but my brother has. But I know enough that if I joined, I wouldn't f it up :3

---

Tentative Title: Viva Pinata: Garden Wars

Basis: The simulation game known as Viva Pinata

Genre: Fucking awesome- I’m not sure, actually, what this would fall under?

Characters needed: Gardeners, Pinatas if you want to be them, and any main human characters you want you play.

Basic Plot:

Piñata central has just given notice! The King of Partyland wants a piñata at his daughter’s 16th birthday. The selected garder will not only get fame and fortune, but knighted by the King of Partyland AND be the only supplier of the royal family!

He’ll only take the best piñata there is, so all the graders will have to work hard in order to be selected. But not is all well on Piñata Island…

Other: :3 Please comment

[DarkestLight]

Uhhh..This is not an idea, but merely an inquiry.

Has there been a direct Time travelling RP . I mean like, you send a (or a group of chars back) in time and they complete some mission, so that another groups of chars can get through an area, thereby changing the timeline, to help complete the RP ? It's kinda like Singularity really, but I dun think I ever saw it here :O

I had a few thoughts about it and if it seems like someone wanted to take it, then feel free.

[Blademaster]

I had a time-based RPG called Killing Time about a year ago.

Three guesses what happened to it.

[Houndoom_Lover]

Heeey, once again my Yes No roleplay inquiry gets ignored! And ya'll wonder why I sound bitter about stuff. Chichichiiii~ Rawr.

I like that idea. :3 I've been dreaming I'm a time traveler lately.

Guess one: It died
Guess two: No one signed up
Guess three: You went back in time and stopped past you from posting it

Killing Time sounds like a great title! I was avoiding here like a plague by then. But I love time traveling things That would be fun. Staaaart it again, Blaaaaade and DeeeeeeeeeL

[Blademaster]

Guess one: It died

You win the prize.

The prize is a dead RPG.

[Master Rudy]

Hmm.....time travel. Done wrong it's an absolute mess. Done right it can be fucking awesome (see Chrono Trigger if you need more proof of this)
Hey Blade how about you and DL get together and bounce some ideas on the matter back and forth? It sounds interesting. Don't let the fact it died the first time get you down bro. Try it again ^_~

EDIT-And like an idiot I forgot to post my idea...... >_<
After given it some thought I think I know the main problem with my ideas. They tend to be good (to me anyway) or break away from the norm. However people either aren't interested in the subject matter or it would get a little hard to implement (let's face it.....a 24 RPG has potential to be awesome but would be a downright nightmare to run thanks to the real time aspect >_<). Finally I think my lack of GMing experience doesn't help matters

Therefore I'm putting more complex ideas on the backburner for now and keeping things simply by tossing out an idea for an anime based RPG that I've not seen around here:

Tentative Title-Slayers

Basis-RPG based on the anime Slayers (duh....)

Genre-Action/Adventure

Characters Needed-Mainly humans, perhaps some demons and other character types as well (anything within reason for the universe wouldn't be turned down). As for fighting styles they would range from your typical swordfighting to sorcery.

Basic Plot-Still working this out. Right now I'm rewatching the Next and Try to refresh my memory on the overall story arc. After that I may break away and go AU in between Try and Revolution. I might allow some people to play as Lina and company but I'm still undecided on that as people playing established characters never seems to go well. :-/

Other-Knowledge of the series isn't needed but might be helpful (trying to work off Brandy's formula for DotBM here). Also as a severely inexperienced GM I'd be willing to co-GM this one. Knowledge for the co-GM would be prefered. If there's interest in it and if someone is willing to work with me on this (or start an idea topic like Heald/Blade's for DB) then perhaps I may actually get this one up in a month or so once I'm done with everything up to the end of Try ^_~

[Darth CookieMonster]

an somebody PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE make a james cameron avatar RPG PLEAS PlEASE PLEASE?

[Master Rudy]

There seems to be a lack of new RPG ideas in the forums as of late. I plan to change that......

Tentative Title: Star Trek
Basis: ........you really need this one explained?
Genre: Sci-Fi Action/Adventure
Characters Needed: Characters of any Trek race mainly. Still semi up in air if this is going to take place on one ship or several. That'll depend on interest for the idea.

Basic Plot: This one will be staying in the Prime Timeline post-Nemesis and take place in 2409 (30 years after the final TNG movie). Early focus will be on the fractured relations between the Klingons and the UFP and perhaps move onto the Borg later. Obviously due to this some events of ST XI and the prequel comic are included (destruction of Romulus and Spock's assumed KIA status in 2387, Data's memories transfered to another android, ect). Cannon wise it will follow the events established by the writers for Star Trek Online. As a result it may not be a bad idea to read up on The Road to 2409 at the STO website.
Other: Knowledge of Trek won't be required but it would be prefered. That however doesn't mean a sign up would be denied since the Memory Alpha Wiki has all the hard cannon info (that is TV/movies) you would need to know. Finally original characters would be prefered but I won't rule out allowing perhaps a few pre-existing characters in provided the person that wants to play them knows the character inside and out. If I do decide to allow them those kinds of sign ups will be VERY limited!

[Roy Karrde]

Figured I would put this one out, see if anyone knows of this anime or likes the idea.

GURREN LAGANN

The Last Command

In the far future, humanity has been driven underground, living by whatever meager life they can manage as they are hunted by the evil Lord Genome and his army of Beastmen, artificially created beings that pilot massive mechs known as Gunmen. It isn't until a plucky kid named Simon, a reckless leader named Kamina, and the sharpshooter named Yoko, meet up and take control of one of the Beastmen Gunmen, dubbing it Gurren Lagann. Through their journey they inspire other clans of humans to join in their fight against the Beastmen and to capture other Gunmen, eventually they defeat the Beastmen Generals, and take the fight to Lord Genome himself, where a long costly battle ends with Simon and humanity the victor.

It has now been a year since the fall of Lord Genome and his fortress of Teppelin, and from its ashes rises the majestic Kamina City, the new capital of the growing human resistance which struggles to transition from war to peace. This includes a new government that the young Simon finds himself thrust into leading as he now finds himself fighting battles in the hall of government and not on the battlefields.

Yet as the human's begin to think their battle with the Beastmen is all but over, with their leader gone, their generals defeated, and their armies scattered, a new threat arises from the barren waste land of the Arctic. General Nyax, the only human ever to be granted a rank in the Beastmen army has returned from his five year journey in the Arctic Circle to find the destruction wrought by the human resistance.

General Nyax uses his cunning mind and leadership to gather the fractions of Beastmen together, and with a weapon that was developed in the cold depths of the Arctic, he freezes Kamina City in a ice shell so strong that not even the drills of Gurren Lagann can pierce.

With the armies of humanity all but sealed inside of the barrier, General Nyax goes to war path, determined to engage in a act of genocide to destroy the enclaves of humanity once and forever.

All that stands in his way, is the squad of human gunmen pilots known as Squad Six. Being forced to guard a communications array far from Kamina City as punishment for nearly destroying a large portion of the city in a freak training accident, the squad of pilots can think of nothing more boring than guarding a hunk of metal in the middle of nowhere.

When the distress signal comes in from Kamina City, followed by the cutoff of all communications, it can only mean the worse. That the Beastmen have struck, and that they are the only warriors left to defend humanity....
