Well, I'm a pretty big fan of non-conventional roleplays. First off, I want to know who's active/willing to join before I do anything.
This would be a horror/mystery/action roleplay. It would be set in normal life.
The gist of it would be that there's a dark spirit haunting a group of people. OK I know that sounds dumb, but it'd be pretty interesting. Instead of it being like, say, the person who's possessed acts like the ghost/spirit or whatever, they simply act like a creepier, no inhibitions version of themselves. Also, completely homicidal.
THERE WOULD BE DEATH IN THIS ROLEPLAY. But from what I've noticed most of the time it seems like people have to ask for permission, ect. So this would act more like a game. You would role dice to see how something would turn out. Kind of a little like D&D. The fighting/killing/possessing would work like this; The person who is trying to attack the other person or pass on the dark spirit writes a post and then throws a 100 sided die. The person being attacked then, instead of writing a response post, first simply posts a die action and writes in their post -Role to determine response-. If the number produced by the person who's being attacked is LOWER than the attacker's roll number, than they are hit/killed/possessed. If it is HIGHER than they avoid the attack. What if it's the same number? Re-roll. You -CANNOT- kill the person with the "Dark Spirit" but you CAN knock them unconscious to make a getaway for one post turn. After you make your running away post, the "Dark Spirit" character wakes up.
The "Dark spirit" passes around characters through possession, which just works like a regular attack. Someone who is possessed by the "Dark spirit" should make it their goal to kill one person, and if they fail at that, pass the spirit on. To avoid the roleplay just becoming a game of pass-the-potato if the spirit fails three times to pass it on, then it immediately gets passed to someone of the roleplayer's choosing.
The general plot is that everyone in this roleplay is friends with each other. There will be only five slots available!
If everyone in the roleplay dies but the "Dark Spirit" then there's a time warp and the whole thing starts over again.
Those are the rough details, is anyone interested in trying this out?

Interesting. So we'd only roll the die if we're trying to kill someone?
I can dig it.
Question though. Can we pleeeeeease have a separate thread for the dice-rolling so that those kinds of posts aren't clogging up the roleplay?
Also, I'm totally active. Like, it's sad how active I am compared to some other people here. >.>
Alsoalso, YAAAAAAAY YOU JOINED! Welcome! biggrin <3

Welcome! biggrin <3 Yeah I was thinking for the blank posts, that they would be posted on another thread, and then the person would just respond. xD; Also the "Dead" people have the option of becoming "Wandering spirits" who are basically ghosts until the next round. I might throw in a few re-animation things too, if a round lasts too long. LOL then you should definitely join! >D Yep yep~~ It seemed like a good group~~

Um... well, potentially everyone. You just kinda gotta advertise and wander around a little bit. Maybe join a few other roleplays and make your skills known and then when everyone's like "OMGYOU'RESUCHAGREATROLEPLAYER" you could be like, "OMGIKR?GUESSWHAT?JOINMYNEWROLEPLAY", and they'll be all like, "******** such. >.>
SPEAKING OF WHICH... >.>
Would you be interested in joining either one of my roleplays? No, this isn't shameless advertisingwhat'reyoutalkingabout- :3 They both need anything boys kinda badly. And the prettiness is totally easy to ignore if you don't dig that sort of thing. >.>
I myself love the pretty. Sooooo yesh.
Unfortunately, everyone's kinda busy IRL right now, so don't be surprised if it just takes a while to get some activity going. This is a slow-going guild, so patience is a necessity with most participants here.
But the outcomes are amaaaaazing~
If you know any other advanced literates who might be interested, please feel free to tell them about the guild. We're always looking for new, active members to help breathe some life into this place.
