Just gonna post this idea I've had sitting around for a while. Enjoy!
---
"Hey kiddo, it's your Dad. I know we're not exactly on talking terms, and I'm sorry about that whole thing with your girl friend and the raising her from the dead for my zombie army and everything, but I've got something I need you to do..."

Your dad (or your mom, I suppose) wasn't exactly the best parental figure that you could have. He never had much time to bond with you. No going to the market hand-in-hand to get a wooden sword so you can pretend to be an adventurer like the other kids. No stories of knights saving princesses from dragons. No tucking you into bed at night. He was too busy terrorizing the general populace and conquering kingdoms and raising the dead and summoning demons etcetera, etcetera. But then, you got a letter. As it turns out, they're dead now. And so were their archnemesises... Archnemeses? Archnemesi? You dunno (or maybe you do, you smart cookie you), but you've apparently been entrusted with a shard of the World Heart, some magical MacGuffin that you unfortunately have next to no information about, and their powers and belongings. And your mom/dad expects you to keep the damn thing safe. But you gotta wonder... Where are the other shards? As it turns out, there's a couple of other kids who's parents were pals with your mom/dad, and you've got a plan... You'll build a dungeon. All of you, together, as a team. It'll be a base of operations where you'll all keep the World Heart "safe" and yadda yadda yadda. It's what they would have wanted, and even if they weren't there for you all the time, they were your parent, right?

And thus your journey begins. You and your new found partners-in-evil are left to carry on in your parent's footsteps as a villian. You son of a powerful lich necromancer, or the daughter of a demon lord, and you have to keep the World Heart safe and sound out of the reach of greedy adventurers.
---

"Hey, kiddo, it's your Mom. I hope you and Dad are doing good. Remember the stories I told you about fighting warlords and evil sorcerers? Well, if you're getting this letter it means I went and fought one of those warlords and evil sorcerers..."

Your mom (or your dad, I suppose) was a hero! They would go to delve into dungeons and fight monsters, they traveled across the sea to stop evil warlords and their armies, and they found amazing treasures. They'd come home and tell you amazing stories about their adventures, and how one day they'd actually save the whole world. But then you got a letter. They died a hero's death, fighting against the baddest of the bad and defeating them. Unfortunately, the World Heart that supposedly kept order in the world in the Golden Age was scattered before it could be put back together. And to make it even worse, somebody else may have them now. And now they want you to find them. But... One kid can't do this alone, right? There were other heroes that used to adventure with your dad/mom, and their kids are saddled with the same job. Even with your dad/mom's gear, and even some of their powers, you're no hero. But damn it if you aren't going to train your hardest. Every hero starts somewhere, right?

And thus your journey begins. You and your new found companions are left to carry on your parent's legacy as a hero. You maybe be the daughter of a wise sorceress or the son of a righteous paladin, and it's your job to find the World Heart and put it back together... Eventually.

So "Family Business" is about a bunch of teenaged kids living in a high fantasy world filled with monsters and the like that have to get into the family business. Except, in this case, the family business is dungeonkeeping and heroism. Teen angst and fantasy shenanigans abound. I'm not expecting Family Business to be all that serious, but but I don't pure comedy either.

The roleplay will begin with the heroes will be beginning their careers as adventurers and the villains will be beginning the construction of their dungeon. Obviously we'd be split into two main groups for this RP... Would it make sense to do it with with two separate threads? I'm not sure if that'd make sense with the way IC/OOC threads work.

I'm interested, this sounds cool! And I'm not sure about seperated threads because the groups will interact, but maybe banners for the groups? I dunno.

This looks really cool.

I have an RP of my own with which I put in a lot of time. So I don't have a lot of time to dedicate to this, but if you want someone that won't be able to post very much, I'm yer gal. Lol.

(For real though. I may not be able to post very much but this looks so cool, I couldn't help but state my interest. :P)

Yeah, that makes a little more sense and helps point out what posts are relevant without having to fiddle with extra threads. I don't know my way around Photoshop, but I'm sure somebody the Gallery might be willing to help with that.

Well I think if you can post at least like... Once every day or two you're fine. I'm not a particularly fast poster myself.

Thanks for the interest!

Sweet! I can probably set up an OOC in an hour or two, and it'll be... Pretty much what I posted here with some added stuff like rules and sheets. Infact, I can post the sheet now since I already have that.

I need something to have a lot of nonsensical fun with (with seriousness sprinkled in because pure comedy is not that amusing without something to back it up, right! Maybe... depends on who's writing the story), so I'm very much interested in playing a possible villain. Or doubling up as both if there is a shortage of heroes.

Oooh, I'm interested if you'll have me.



Forgive me if the CS is bad or it's missing something, it's 7 am and I haven't slept yet, haha. I'll probably edit it later in the day.
