Apparently I was around here like five years ago, I doubt anyone will recognize me. I do hope I'm not stepping on any toes here advertising a roleplay that's not even on the site.

LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, allow me to present to you what I've been dealing with on and off for the last six months. A very gimmicky courtroom drama roleplay Discord server. We do scheduled trials, usually Saturdays 9pm UTC, and in the week leading up to it there's a whole investigation phase.

Our world is like no other. We have talking animals, normal humans, skeleton people, demigods, a whole continent where everyone is a pokemon, every single deity you can think of, vegetable people from space, entities from a higher dimensional plane, and even people from other worlds... The whole idea is that as a player you can make whatever character you want and I have to make them fit in the world no matter what. That in itself is pretty neat, right?

The way things work is, a player has to actively decide for their character to commit a crime, then inform me as the "game master" about what the plan is. From there, I can choose to throw a wrench in the their plan or let things happen smoothly. Then I hand out relevant info to the relevant parties. Witnesses get told what they witnessed, the defendant gets told how the plan went, etc. I then announce when the trial will be held, assign attornies, and provide private channels for investigation and interviewing.

You can choose between a variety of different roles, you can choose more than one for a single character:
Observer: doesn't even have to participate in the roleplay
Normal citizen: commits crimes, witnesses crimes, falls victim to crimes, normal stuff
Receptionist: handles paperwork for announcing trials, answers questions anyone may have about the court
Investigator: investigates crimes and drags criminals to court
Attorney: represents people in court, builds cases and stuff
Bailiff: maintains order in the courtroom and gallery, escorts witnesses to the stand to testify
Scribe: compiles the transcript of a trial
Judge: hears the case, moderates discussion, dishes out penalties to attorneys who break the rules, deals with verdict stuff, bosses the bailiff around

I dunno what else to put. If you're still confused about anything, you can read the google document linked below this paragraph, or you can jump on the server and have a look around, or you can just ask on this thread.

As I said, the roleplay is hosted on a Discord server. Here's the invite. I'm that bee with the red name. [url]https://discord.gg/9DmvvQA[/url]
