Ultimately, the information told in brochure isn't what's so [i]interesting[/i] to you. The Elcruise service has a lot of secrets, and their newest super ship, The Azure Sundown, has most of them. There are rumors and stories that the ship is haunted. Along with fantasy stories of monsters, killers, and possessed toasters. Most people brush it off as an overactive imagination mixed with attention seeking - The Elcruise service themselves have denied these claims. But there's actually some credence behind it. People secretly go missing while on the Sundown once every trip. The company has done well to cover their own rear and report whoever as a missing person the second they can't find them. There are mysteries on this boat, some related to the supernatural occurrences, others more grounded in reality. And where's there's a mystery, there's a plucky person out there to solve them.

It is [b]July 17th, 2014[/b]... 

... The Number Man would love to have a word with you.

Good, got all that? 

Welcome to [b]Azure Sundown[/b] a little RP I came up with, deciding to give this lonely forum a bit of life. It started out as a murder mystery RP, but I deviated so far away from that the original idea is more or less unrecognizable. Now it's more of a mystery solving RP, with horror/supernatural themes thrown into the mix - There will be a murder mystery at some point, though. A little like my favorite cartoon Gravity Falls. But has a few themes from American Horror Story. Now, the general idea is that you, a traveler heading to a destination, has paid for a trip on board the Azure Sundown, the titular ship, and setting for the RP. Putting it lightly, sh*t's haunted. Strange monsters and abnormalities run amok, they mostly come out at night when everyone's in bed, or they're in the places you don't see. Some are nice... most are murderous and will kill you (Or worse) on sight.

Your contact into a world of mystery and supernatural strangeness is the Number Man, who will point you in the right direction by giving you clues. It is up to you how you'll go about the rp.

Are you ready?

Anyway, this RP won't be too character focused, so I don't want too many characters - But there will be [i]some [/i]character interaction/development. I'll NPC mostly everyone. I have a little system designed for this. I will write up specific scenes/path for the characters (It'd be easier if people grouped up), and I will describe the consequences of their actions, and so on. Everything's mostly open ended, so it's up to the players what their characters should do, and if it's the right choice. Because, make the wrong choice, and you'll be punished...
