I doubt you are reading this because the title was interesting. So here's the deal. I've been working on a story that I currently can't come up with more material for, so I'm starting an RP based off of the end of this story that I have planned far in advance. I'll be honest. I'm doing this in the hopes that some of you might be able to inspire new ideas for my story so that I can actually continue with it. I would greatly appreciate it. Now, onto the story. [b]The Story:[/b] In the beginning, you must choose. Either you are a character living within a very popular anime, living your life as if that were your normal life. Then, there is the choice to be a person in the real world, one who loves the fore-mentioned anime and comes to find one day that they are pulled into the anime without any warning. Basically, either you are in the anime and live life "normally," or you aren't in the anime and get pulled into a new life. [b]The Anime:[/b] [i]Story[/i]: In the beginning, life in the land of Ozenbuel{Oh-zen-bool} was calm, peaceful, and untroubled{or serene, if you don't want to use all of those words}. The citizens found life to be rather boring at times, but enjoyed the fact that they weren't involved in the world's troubles. Their monarch was a smart and benevolent man, and the choices he made for his land made the entire world respect and worship him. Even the people in a democratic land liked him so much, that they legally entered the society and changed their ways of life to live in the city with them. At first, the monarch was fine with a few people coming into the city in order to get away from all of the fighting. However, the city's population got out of hand, and he had to start kicking people out of the city, never to return. He made an announcement that made the people understand his choice, and many people began volunteering to leave for the sake of others. These people were given reprieve for the night and were allowed to stay in the palace in order to plan out their next step in life. This is where things began to change. Everyone spent the night at the palace, and they all slept in a room cut off from the rest of the palace. They were kept under guard from the royal guards until the next day. Everyone woke up and went to the main hall in order to receive some supplies for their departure, yet the monarch wasn't there. Everyone was curious as to why the monarch wasn't where he said to meet, and the guards decided to check the monarch's chambers. To their major surprise, the monarch was laying on his bed... dead. Blood was soaked into the bed, and his body was cold. The benevolent monarch had been assassinated. This made the guard panic, thinking that the people who were accepted into the palace had something to do with it. Fortunately for those people, the guards who were watching them never let them be alone, and not a single person in that group had left during the night. With that in mind, the group of the people still offered to take their lives for the sake of suspicion, and the guards all agreed to let them off the hook. With all suspicion out of the way, there was still the issue of telling the people about how the monarch was dead. They couldn't come up with a way to explain to the people how their monarch was assassinated. Then they began to actually pay attention. They noticed that one of the people in the group looked and sounded exactly like the monarch. Knowing this, they came up with a plan. The guard decided it was best to hide the monarch's death in order to keep everyone from panicking, and the group agreed to help them out. The plan was to dress up the man who looked like the monarch and pose him as the monarch until they could find out what happened to the real one. And with that, the plan was under way to find the perpetrator and restore the city's honor. [i]Timeline[/i]: The group has found a lead on someone who might have relevant information on the monarch's death, so they decide to follow it and the "monarch" goes with them, hoping to teach this person a lesson if they had something to do with it. [i]Character Plot[/i]: You play as a member of this 6 person group; one of them is the "monarch," while the others are just followers with an extreme passion to help each other out and find out everything about the monarch's death. They are all hidden from the general public, and nobody knows about any of the people still in the city walls or the "monarch's" true identity. As for the 5 follower characters, you're free to make them yourself. The "Monarch" character must be a collaborative creation between the person playing the role and myself, as this person will play a massive role in the events to come, so I need to have some part in making this person fit the bill. Remember: all of these characters need to completely trust each other and have almost no issues with the others in the group. If there is any issue with making these characters, I can make them myself and throw them into the NPC group. However, I feel it would be more interesting if actual people were behind the characters pulling the stings in ways that I can't. Now, this is all I have for now. I have to get ready for a job interview, so I will come up with the other half later. For now, I'll let you guys mull over this. Update: Well, it would seem I have a little more time than I thought. Give about 2 hours, and I should have the other half of the story together.
