GM Note: I got the basic idea for this roleplay from another site. However, its content and plot are of my own creation.
You've heard of Neverland. Everyone has. The great misadventures of Peter Pan and sweet little Wendy have sparked imagination for movies, books, and much more. Do not mistake it for anything more than fiction, however. It is nothing but a child's dream manifested by adults.
Just a child's dream...
Lewis Carroll's fantastic story about Alice and her interesting journey into the seemingly childlike fantasy world of Wonderland has affected literature and media alike. Like Neverland, it has been the catalyst for many stories created by children and adults. Who wouldn't want to visit Wonderland? Alas, it is just a story, right?
Right?
In 1946, the U.S. and other countries experienced a drastic increase in mental patients suffering from schizophrenia, extreme paranoia, and what could only be described as PTSD. More than 60% of these patients claimed to have seen a hellish version of the fabled Neverland or Wonderland. Sometimes both. Baffled by this, government officials kept the strange cases out of the public eye, channeling media towards the scare of nuclear war--later dubbed "The Cold War."
These mental patients were locked away in special, underground facilities. Only those with the highest level of security clearance even heard rumors about these facilities. Scientists and psychologists from around the world were brought in, given the highest security clearance available but kept under high surveillance to ensure that the world's worst secret was kept just that.
In 1979, over one hundred thousand people disappeared from the face of the earth. The news did not broadcast such a feat, however, as all of these people were patients in the government's facilities--nicknamed "Neverwonder Institutions." Those who knew of these institutions looked at every angle: these people had simply disappeared.
Seven years later, they all returned...mauled by some unknown animal of sorts. Religious and even non-religious officials claimed that demons were attacking--that the apocalypse was near. In an effort to quell panic and possible leaks, the programs were shut down. Everyone involved with the program, save government officials, was silenced. Permanently. Those who knew of the massacre nicknamed the day "Devil's Execution."
Thirty years later, in 2016, the problem seems to have disappeared. Not that there was ever officially a problem to begin with.
That is, until the case of Alison Jane Bennett.
Now, the whole world is in panic as more people disappear day after day, coming back in two months or less butchered by some unknown demon.
You are one of these people. You have woken up, dazed and confused, in the world of Neverwonder. Here, the lands of Neverland and Wonderland, among more obscure others, mingle and intertwine. Here, getting home is the least of your worries. Here, your nightmares become real, and your dreams become nonexistent.
And no matter what, you know your fate: in two months' time (maybe even less), you will be killed by whatever demon awaits you. But you won't go down without a fight...
Details about the locations, NPCs, etc. will be given should this generate enough interest for an OOC.
I AM LOOKING FOR A CO-GM, BUT YOU MUST BE WILLING TO ANSWER QUESTIONS INVOLVING YOUR ROLEPLAY STYLE, YOUR GM STYLE, ETC.
