Welcome! We're putting together a new story, which we would like your help in telling! This is your chance to play your favorite canon characters in a very strange environment with other very strange characters! Yep, you can play whatever character you want! Any genre! Books, TV, video games, toys!
Edit: My pal brought this up to me: In regards to customized characters like your character in Fallout or Skyrim.. I'm going to allow these kind of characters. I mean they are still the Lone Wanderer and the Dragonborn etc etc. If I see issue with the character you propose, we will talk about it and get it figured out!!
This centers around a world in another reality where their only goal is making entertainment… television and movies. And those shows get broadcast to every sector in their galaxy. That's the only thing this planet does. But to do so… the people themselves living on the planet are ruled over with an iron fist. They live in poverty for the most part, thanks to the imperialistic Zabava Broadcasting Network. The Network is willing to put it's entertainment exports and profit waaaaay above the well being of their own people. But not everyone is thrilled with the status quo, and a rebellion is building.
Your character is going to be recruited/kidnapped and put into a sort of indentured service with an optional contract. Essentially… the Network looks into other dimensions to find their new 'stars', and take them. They are then given an 'offer they can't refuse' to be stars on their broadcast network. If the contract isn't signed… the kidnapped beings are put to work, forced labor for the most part. But our 'heroes' will escape, and fight the power!
So why would someone do the contract and not just bail? They have powers, surely they can fight! Mmmmm…. Well…. That's the thing. Not really. We've thought about this, and we have a good way to get your character to this world, their abilities nullified and shackled. Yes, there will be an escape and that's where the story really starts to roll! Don't worry, we have all this worked out. It's gonna be great!
So what are the rules/expectations, Ash? I'm glad you asked!
- Standard rules of Iwaku apply here, as always.
- Adept to Advanced level of writing. Sorry to say but if you don't care what quality is given in your posts or those of other players, then this is not for you.
- Respect for the GM's and other players. We are all (presumably) adults here, and so we must conduct ourselves as adults who play pretend on the internet.
- Be mindful that others will have different posting speeds than yourself. Some of us can do multiple in a day, some cannot, and that's okay. Ideally we can get by with everyone making at minimum four posts a week. There will be a posting order in place.
- There will be adult themes such as violence, adult language, and situations. If characters happen to become romantically/sexually involved, please move it elsewhere and keep it out of our main thread to comply with site rules.
- We really want this to be long term. Please, if you don't think you'll be able to invest your time in it, you can just take a step back. Along with the normal action scenes, we also want to focus on the day to day slice of life things.
- No OP characters! If there's a doubt on your character being OP, please let us help. We're not crazy about such characters, and there's actually an IC reason why they wouldn't be in this.
And that also means… when possible, characters exist as fictional in one another's worlds. For example, if one person is playing Batman and another person is playing Toad (Mario Bros.)... Toad would be a videogame character in Batman's world. If both Soul Evans (Soul Eater) and Wolverine are being RP'ed.. Soul would be an anime character in Wolverine's world, and Wolverine would be a comic book in Soul's world.
So if you're still interested, here's our CS! Fill it on out and post it in this thread. We're looking for a total of 8 people, methinks. And those that join after our initial escape… don't worry I've thought about that too. More will be able to join whenever we want, we have an IC reason.
Thanks for reading, and I truly hope you'll help us write this story of network ratings, greed, oppression and rebellion!
