After several months I have finally decided to return and (hopefully) start up a new RP. I don't have much in terms of plans at the moment, but I would like whatever RP I eventually start up to be a mostly character driven with some exploration elements (you can blame certain open world games for that). Also, I will be updating this thread whenever I develop more details on the world/plot, so if you are kinda interested but want to wait until there is more information, keep an eye out.
My current thought process is that the RP would follow the story of a (ideally) interesting group of characters as they learn more about the secrets of world they live in. My current thoughts on the setting are a few options:
I was hoping this would be more of a long term group activity, hence me seeing if there is any interest while the idea is till in development, so that there is plenty of time for anyone who is interested to provide input ideas/suggestions and to sort out how characters exist in the world. I'm a big fan of character backgrounds that somehow tie into the main plot, but this detail is not that necessary.
Anyways, if you are interested, have any suggestions, or just want to give your opinion of something, please feel free to reply.
Update:
My current thought process is that the RP will be taking place shortly after anomaly occurs, an entire city disappearing out of nowhere, seeming almost as it it had been scooped right out of the ground all of the people gone as well, (other options for strange events I have been considering are: unexplained explosion? people going missing? sink hole?) following a group of people (volunteers?professionals?a suicide squad type situation? or perhaps just curious?) that are investigating the cause of the event, leading them to some sort of secret. Yes I do have plans after that, but maybe it would be more interesting if you don't know what you'll find. This will most likely take place in setting 2, but with some of setting 4 once the characters arrive to the location of the anomaly, having to deal with survival elements in a once inhabited area being destroyed.
Another possibility is that the characters where in the city when it disappeared (or something else happened to it), and now must survive and figure out exactly what happened and what to do next. This may appeal more to those wanting a more post-apocalyptic approach.
Both I can be either 2 or 4 (both were designed with the possibility of being both at once). But I would like to hear your guy's opinions and other ideas before I go any further that way if people don't really like the idea that much, I don't have much and can easily start over.
Thanks! ^_^

A fantasy world where magic does exist but is incredibly rare.- A modern fantasy world with bustling cities full of mages and mythological creatures and several divisions of races and long time mysteries.
A post-apocalyptic world where there are few people and nature has begun to take over the once inhabited cities and towns.- A mix of them, a fantasy-like world with some magic and mythical creatures that grew from the ashes of a once great civilization where people have become unfamiliar with the previously existing civilization but posses some level of steampunk-ish technology.
