    Seems the forum has more GMs than actual players at the moment.

    Okay, so, of my two RPs, I'm going to throw out the basic plot of each.

    RP A) Players are police in a fantasy world 1920s technology. It will be episodic but have an overarching plot focused about a brewing gang war.

    RP B) The dark lord has won, taken control of the land apart from a few bastions of good. Players are the servants of the big bad, and have to crush the resistance before they can put their plan into action.

    With A, do you mean something like Legend of Korra? Steampunk/Noir with magic?

    More or less yes, though there will be guns as well, though as I said, nineteen twenty so not exactly good ones.

    I think I'll go for the second plot as we already have a police style RP with LIBIS, so it'd be good to have some variety. It's called "You Are Not The Hero".

    I'd be down with that - i'm really enjoyed writing a bad guy when i was working on my wip "the bad guy" - being bad removes so much pressure to be more cliche'd than dudley do right

    The villain RP should be up in about four days for those interested. Hopefully sooner.

    Turns out I managed to get through checking the syntax earlier than expected. You Are Not The Hero is now awaiting approval.

    Dammit @halisme I want to join your RP but I'm already participating in three other games. I even wanted to start my own game but decided on waiting until the other games are finished.
    BTW it's quite interesting to see that it's more or less the same people in each game

    Any tips on starting RPs? I have an idea I have started working on, and I love RPs, but don't want to mess up.

    Ok guys! I probably won't post this until my current ROLEPLAY is done, but I'm working on a Suicide Squad idea. You create a villian (with the template) and do missions for the government. Like the movie lol? I'm working on it but would anyone be interested?

    There is something I noticed, maybe you also noticed that. Fanfic games, like the game of thrones rp, Harry Potter rp, Gotham city, just tend not to work. Some don't kick off, while others run for a bit and then die. Am I the only one who noticed it? I'm asking because I want to run a game sometime (once the three games that I'm a part of will finish) and two of my ideas were to do a Buffy/Dresden verse games (neither which will include the maon characters or even timelines. Just some references or cameos). Now do you think these games will have an audience, or should I just go for the safer, make your world up version?

    Anyone interested? Please send template to me before game starts!






    The Story
    You play as a villain convicted of terrible acts of terrisom, murder, assasintion. and much more dreadful things. Yet, it dosent bother you! You are in a prision, (Location is Classified), but one day a battle scarred man made it through security, and for the first time in forever, you have a visitor. He talks to you about freedom from St.Brutes Prison for the Criminaly Insane, and how by doing some simple tasks for the goverment, you could get time off your sentance. Yet, these missions are basically like commiting suicide, very small chance of surviving them. Although a small twinge of worry goes off in your brain, you decide your game. Your first post will start out in your cell, a couple days after Nicolus visited you.

    Your Mission.
    Along with other villians and Nicolus, you are sent out into the streets of Gotham City, where Eclipso, one of the worst villains in the word has taken over Wayne Tower. From there, he sends evil spirits and lightning storms raging across the city, killing thousands of innocents, and even more cops. He has also taken Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman, Aquaman, Flash, Green Lantern, and Cyborg. You have just 48 hours to take down Eclipso and rescue the Justice Leauge.



    Characters
    I will have a villain template down below for those wanting to make there own unique villians as well as premade villians from Suicide Squad. As with my other RP first come first serve. Please be mindfull of that as well as creating UNIQUE villians. You cant have a complete copy of El Diablo with a different name or such. As usual, start a conversation with me before posting in Discussion Thread.


    The Rules
    HAVE FUN! Be mindful of others, and every dirty little trick is allowed! Please feel free to make your own way, as turning to the side of good, or planning with others to escape and start a new outlaw life. But be warned! There is many chances of getting killed, such as a failed escape attempt, or plotting with the wrong person. I would aprectiate asking me before putting a game changing move into motion. But dont worry, if you die feel free to make another character. Also, those who have a character from Suicide Squad will probably have a lesser chance of dying.


    Character Templates and Lists:
    DO NOT claim somebody in the list from Suicide Squad until this is actually posted! Make sure to also start a conversation with me before posting in discussion, and if you choose a premade character start a conversation with me and I will give you a template. Some things you will be able to change.
