I mean, you should already know after reading the above if you'd be interested in this, but I figure it'd be nice to actually show you my ideas for the running of the RP so you can have some assurances as to its quality.
First thing, it's not going to be a fast posting speed. This doesn't mean I'm going to require large posts, just that the pace is going to be relaxed.
Secondly, I like collabs. We're probably going to be doing a lot of them. This will work into the above thing, about the slower posting speed.
Thirdly, there's going to be 'mechanics' behind things that you can and can't do but yeah like, you should know that, it's based on an RPG so some semblance of balance is expected.
Fourthly, and perhaps most unusually, there isn't going to be a standard CS to accompany this RP. Instead, you will be given a brief amount of information on the setting, where you live, go to school, and then you'll fill in a brief 'normal' CS before having your character respond to a 20+ question interview process... that will have happened IC.
The premise of that is that the RP is going to be following a theme; balancing responsibilities and leisure. The interview process? Will be for a part time job that your character, and the characters of the other players, will be working at on certain days after school. It'll be the thing that ties your characters together initially although you are free to have them know each other prior to meeting at work.
Fifthly, you will not be deciding your Arcana or who your Persona is. Instead, based on the results of your interview process and other factors you will be given an Arcana that's "more or less" appropriate for your character. Then, based on that Arcana, a specific Persona will be given to you. You may or may not be privy to knowing it ahead of time; I'm undecided on that.
Sixthly, because you do not get to choose your Arcana or Persona, you should also know that you will not have the standard 'make your own' one later on as well. You'll have your earlier one, and then after significant character progression and story arcs you will unlock a more powerful evolved or whatever you want to refer to it as Persona. These will be following a core mythological theme that parallels the theme of the RP... which is, again, balancing responsibilities and leisure. What you want to do and what you have to do.
If my intentionally downplayed rambling on the notions behind the RP have not killed your interest in it, then that means that we're golden and you're likely a good fit. There will be a pretty small player limit, and before I even wrote this up some people have made characters already; the interview is technically already available to do things with. I will link it if this gets enough interest.
