Anyone who is versed in Lovecraft's books will instantly recognize the title "From beyond" as a short story written by him in his earlier years of writing. This RP would revolve around a very similar premise. For those not familiar with the story I shall explain the plot of the RP. Please forgive the rather rushed writing.

Your character is the best friend of a scientist in the study "Physical and metaphysical." As time passes you will watch as your friend descends into apparent madness. His theories become wild and strange as he raves about the world beyond. His conjectures become more far-fetched and his job at the laboratory is lost. He becomes a shut in, locking the world out and keeping his comings and goings a secret. Then one day you are called by him to his house to bare witness to his greatest discovery and the terror from beyond.

That's what I am looking for in a nutshell. I am looking for someone to play the friend of the mad scientist. any gender is more than welcome for the roll but If you wish to put a love spin on the story I would request that the opposite number be female. Also on the subject of love in a Lovecraft story I am not against it but I am also not very interested in it either if that makes any sense. If my opposite number feels it is something they want I would have to ask that it be of relevance to the story and not something shoe horned in for the sake of added romance.

Well that's everything for the moment. feel free to message me here or by PM. we can hash out all the relevant details later.

Thanks for your interest.
PM'd. Still open to more if people are interested.
Lets see if I can get this running again.
Jian Long Stood at the prow of the Bái Se. Wind and sea mist whipped about his faces as the sleek airship cut smoothly through the evening sky. The helms man of the bone white craft kept a distance of 100 feet above the ocean. Such low altitude was generally frowned upon but right now it was a necessity. The Bái Se wasn't the only predator in these skys. Other Pirates stalked the shipping lanes here and most were on less then friendly terms with the Shēng qǐ Yīng Triad. With this in mind Jain stared out across the waves and sky his hand on the hilt of his sword. It was moments like this that made Jian feel alive. Hunting, fighting and killing were what he lived for. He had gained the nasty, and well deserved, title of Blood Dragon. He smiled as he anticipated combat and bloodshed. He yearned for battle, to feel the blood running down his naked blade and onto his hands. Desire for battle did not clowd his sharp eyes as he spotted a dark form far off the port and above their horizontal plain of movement. Pointing at the ship he let out a Resounding whoop and called out "Zhi zhàndòu! (to battle)"

As the call to arms was made. The captain stepped out onto the deck and observed his crew as they scuttled about per-pairing for battle. Most of them were new to this ship as often the crew met grisly and unpleasant demises. The Bái Se was known for its lightning fast strikes and brutal combat. While this was wonderful for reputation it was terrible for crew survival. The captain glanced at Jian and couldn't help but grimace as he drew his blade. Jian was the oldest member of his crew but also the most troublesome. The captain shook his head and began to bar orders to the crew on the deck. Weapons were readied and weapons swung around to train on the fast approaching vessel. Repeaters were loaded and blades bared as the crew fell silent wondering if their intended prey had spotted them or not.
Philip stood silently in front of a mirror. His entire body ached as he looked at what was left of his body, much of which had been replaced by cybernetics. He traced the plates on his chest and the grimaced. It had been years since his body had been destroyed. But the pain lingered. Phantom pain they had called it. He sighed and began to dress. his clothes hid much of his cybernetic parts. With the recent advances in cyber replacements it was almost impossible to tell the really good prosthetic. Philip however did not have the money to buy the best. His parts were sleek and efficient but fairly noticeable to anyone who looked cloesly. not that anyone really cared. Hell some people were swapping in their parts for designer prosthetic. He turned to his wardrobe and saw a shiny metal sitting atop a plaque that read: "For heroism and self sacrifice" He picked the plaque up and with a hateful his turned and tossed it at the mirror. There was no smashing. Nor tinkling of shattered glass only a dull silence as the medal slipped passed the mirror into the wall behind. Philip stopped. his mind was whirling with confusion. He stepped forward and cautiously placed a hand on the mirror. He instantly regretted it.

Everything is fog and haze. Voice float out of the dust.
"is he alive?" a voice muttered
"I don't know does it matter?" another voice replied
"Stupid git should have minded his own business."
"should we put another bullet in him to be sure?" a hesitant voice asked.
"Nah poor bugger will be out in a minute."
"what about the broad?"
"leave her. she wont say anything. We'll kill her if she does."
a woman whimpers
"Well lets get out of here before the tin men arrive."
The sound of feet beginning to shuffle away.
Pain, rage and hate. They permeate the air. Philip feels strain as his body moves of its own accord.
"What the hell?"
"That's impossible!"
"Shoot him! shoot him again!"
More pain but now a sense of feral triumph and then blackness.

Philip awakes in what seems like a nightmare. He is standing in the midst of what looks like a modern city but there is nothing normal about it. The architecture is alien to him and the towering skyscrapers are decrepit and decaying. a thin smog permeates the air around him. the sky is streaked with black clouds. Instead of the subtle blues the sky is a blood red. There is no vegetation to be seen anywhere. Philip felt even more unnerved when he realized that his breathing and the pounding of his heart in his ears were the only sounds he could hear. Everything was silent to the point of being unnatural. No birds, not insects, there was even a complete lack of sound from the world settling. And yet he couldn't help but feel that he was being watched by something cold and malevolent. His pulse quickened even more then it had before. Fear gripped him as her rotated on the spot wondering what was watching him and more importantly: where the hell he was.
Two worlds stand just out of sync with each other: The technologically advanced earth and the magically attuned Terra. Neither is aware of the other's existence but every now and then someone slips between the cracks and ends up on bridge. Bridge is a barren and wasted track of land wracked by throws of raw magic and devastated by technologies ravages. No mortal survives this helscape for long but it is here, where magic and technology once came together, that two lost souls will find each other. It is here amid the corrupted flora and fauna that the fate of two worlds will be decided. It is here, where old gods slumber and beings of unbelievable malevolence plot, that two lowly beings shall shape or destroy the cosmos.

This is my idea in a nutshell. I am looking for a female lead to run along my male counterpart but I am flexible and can easily accept a male counterpart. This something that's been sitting on my brain for a bit and now that I have some time I thought i would fire this off and see if anyone bites. I am a relatively easy going RP companion. My requirements are simple keep me in the loop and don't do anything too pants on head. If an rp is started and people lose interest I prefer it if people just tell me instead of just letting it decay. I know that I have been guilty of letting the real world slip in and distract me to the point of letting an RP die. if that happens i understand. Sometimes its just not meant to be. If this catches your fancy drop a line here or shoot me with a PM. Questions, complaints or suggestions I am happy to hear them all. I am also very happy to add or take away ideas to better build an RP.
