Sounds interesting. So how would the role-playing work? In other words, what is the role of we, the players and our characters? I suggest that you spend a bit of time fleshing out the city itself, perhaps explain it's social classes etc. What genre would you place this? Is it action? Drama? Drama and Suspense? Will it play out as a bit of a crime thriller? The concepts interesting; I just don't know what to expect from it.

I was thinking that the basis of the RP would be to try and survive in the city and uncover who's behind the red mask.

There would be a central leader controlling most of the city with the Army Commander (who controls the guards), Head of Health (who try and fail to find a cure as well as uncover who is sick), and an Agricultural and Ranching Expert (controls the production of food).
The sections of the city would be sorted by color and social status. (ie. The Green section being inhabited by the rich and the yellow being inhabited by the poor.

The genre would definitely be drama, suspense, mystery, and a bit of horror.

I don't know what to expect from it either. ^^; Whatever the result, it's sure to be interesting.

Oh snap. I didn't realize how excited I'd actually be for something based off The Red Masque of Death until you made it. I'm in. Judging from the story itself, simuseb, I think it'd be a feudal society. RC Master might have another thing going though, so I dunno.
