I'm developing an idea for a Digimon RP at the moment. The setting is within Cyber Sleuth's universe, complete with EDEN and all the events that took place within the game, except a side story involving a different group of hackers/Digimon tamers. Kind of like Hacker's Memory's premise, except... well, even more of a side story. This isn't an AU, but depending on how it's played the events of either game could be altered depending on if your party interacts/participates in the plot of one of the other games by running into characters from them. I won't railroad the party by preventing you from interacting with canon storyline events, as I believe in complete player freedom for that kind of stuff. As long as it makes sense for your character, do whatever.

Since it's Cyber Sleuth, there will of course be mysteries to be solved and evil to be stopped (or not solved, or evil not stopped, depending on what you want to do). I'll be acting as a DM, or as much a DM as I could be for a casual RP. So I'll handle controlling the NPCs, villains, and general flow of things will go when players interact with the environment (leaving things like any potential PVP or player on player action up to them, of course), as well as how the world is changed by the actions of the players.

While the video games give you a party of three at a time in battle that can be switched out, we'll be doing Digimon partners more classic in this: one partner per person, to avoid clutter in combat and dialogue.

My ideal group is 4 players. I'd like to not go higher than that, to keep game flow as smooth as can be.

The RP will have a heavy theme involving secrets, and as part of that each approved player will PM me a single plot-important secret that they'd be hiding from the rest of the party. IC no one else would know of anyone else's major secret, but everyone must have one. Since everyone hides secrets from people, it'd go without saying that this secret in particular would be a significant one that your character wouldn't want getting out even to the rest of the party. Or potentially even their own Digimon partner, if it's bad enough. We could go the entire game with no one figuring any of it out, but this would be each player's chance to help contribute to the plot, as for each secret there will be something put into the RP to act as a clue, or an enemy if it involves a grudge of sorts. Something to keep in mind while you make your characters.

That's about all I have to say for now regarding this. If you have any questions feel free to ask here or PM me, otherwise I'll be waiting until I can gather four players together to start the OOC!

I'm torn because it sounds really interesting, but my Digimon knowledge is mostly limited to the first few anime series so I don't know how useful I can be contributing to a universe I know next to nothing about.

i’m very interested. though, like Double said, my Digimon knowledge is limited to a little bit of both the games and the tv show, but if that’s something that doesn’t matter much, i would be open to joining in on this.

@Double Honestly I think it’s fine if you only have knowledge of the shows. That’s more than enough I’d say. In the OOC there’ll be more regarding the universe, how it works, etc. but you can basically think of it as VRMMO/The Matrix meets Digimon for the digital stuff as a replacement for adventuring to the Digital World, and the real world being largely the same as modern day other than the aforementioned Matrix-style virtual world. Digimon and how they act are also pretty much the same.

@Shiyonichi That sounds fine to me.

@melon Same as my reply to Double. I’ll do my best to explain in depth how the universe works in the OOC, but overall if you have any Digimon knowledge at all it’s totally fine.

@Vesper Alright then, I'll await the OOC with eagerness.

I like the idea of using Wormmon/Stingmon but... eh, the later forms are a bit too convoluted with how they are achieved so I don't know if that would work or not.

Just do a regular digivolution to Dinobeemon and the Megalevel I’m just too lazy to look up the name of, you don’t have to follow it 100% if its inconvenient.

Not a gigantic fan of Imperialdramon either if I'm being a hundred percent honest. Tiger Vespamon looks absolutely amazing but going from a black/green color scheme to suddenly being bright yellow makes no sense from an aesthetic standpoint.

I've been playing around with the idea of using Tukaimon/Devidramon, but the only Perfect stage that makes sense to progress to is Cyberdramon and I absolutely hate all the Ultimate stages he evolves into. Well, all except for Alphamon, who from what I can tell is disgustingly overpowered.

Really ironic considering that Justimon is a Kamen Rider... Doubly so since I’m using the Dorumon line which has the disgustingly overpowered Alphamon as it’s final Evolution.

I think it might be best to look at another source beyond game lines, since they make up evolution lines or make one up on your own.

Also color doesn’t really matter as there are quite a few Digimon lines that change color as they evolve like Kabuterimon going into Ultimate and Mega. Literally goes from blue to red to yellow.

Yeah the color thing is really just my preference more than anything. I didn't mention Justimon because I'd rather avoid being too similar to an existing character like Ryo.
