Come Along With Me
Likely Being A Game About Friendship, Sword Fighting & Bad Jokes, Based On Adventure Time




Somewhere, the war is over. Somewhere, people reel in shock at the appearance of GOLB, and sigh with relief at his subsequent disappearance. But the world has an occasionally annoying habit of continuing to turn and, sure enough, another day dawns on the Land of Ooo. And another. And another. Days turned into years. Heroes turned into myths.

And yet this isn't about the past. This is about now, where a group of brave new heroes rise up to forge their own legacy. Will it be a legend of heroic sacrifice and valorous deeds? A cautionary tale about the dangers of poor hygiene? A ballad sung by screaming guitar warriors about risking it all for love? It's a mystery.

Whichever way it goes, it starts with would-be heroes answering the call to adventure. Posters have spread across the land, seemingly overnight, which simply read:

HELP. HEROES NEEDED. BREAKFAST KINGDOM.


And you are a hero, aren't you?



Come Along With Me is a game set in the Land of Ooo, from the show Adventure Time. Players will be playing their own original characters in the setting, set at a vaguely indeterminate time following the events of Season Ten. A complete knowledge of the show, comics and other stuff is not required, though characters will need to fit in with the general tone and aesthetic of the show. Watching a few clips of the show, if you're not familiar with it, will probably make it very obvious whether or not your idea will fit.

I'll be asking for people to make characters once I've got enough people to start running it. You're free to spend time between now and then coming up with wild ideas, pitching them and generally getting enthusiastic. I won't stop you. I can't stop you. This game will use a rudimentary mechanics system, whereby I'll roll a dice, argue with myself about what it means, and sort stuff out. Or something. We'll worry about that when we get there.

This looks like it might be a lot of fun. Gonna have to start going through some character concepts and see what starts to stick out in my head.

Crumbs, and here I was expecting that I'd be looking for people well into next year. Thank you @TruthHurts22 and @AmpharosBoy (also yay Disgaea 4) and @Lightning for showing interest! I'm quietly beavering away on the character sheet and general OOC stuff, so although I'm still angling to start once we've all survived the Dreaded Holiday Season, there might be stuff for folks to fill in before that's over.

This game idea has drawn my eye. Mostly because a certain ludicrous character idea came to mind which I realised would probably work excellently in this setting's context. So, I may well join in on this, depending on how it all goes. Just be sure to tag us when it's all ready, if it's starting post-New Year.

I'll be sure to give you a tag @BCTheEntity once I've got things up; frenzied writing this afternoon has meant I've got a lot of stuff done, which in turn means I can probably sneak up the beginnings of the game before the weekend hits me. Obviously it'll be a bit of a butt to have an almost three week gap between the OOC going up and things kicking off properly, and I'll do what I can to maintain interest in everyone as best I can, but it also means plenty of time for everyone to decide on characters.

And plenty of time for me to plot things out, and have a back-up plot or three.

That seems like a sound plan to me. By the by, nice Alphys avatar. And, since you appear to be fairly new to the Guild, welcome! I hope you enjoy your stay.

Thank you! I've not yet found a game to join myself, but that frees me up to run my own and help others find a game. If I had bonus points to give out for noticing/identifying my avatar, I'd give you a hundred of them!

Seems like an interesting RP, I really liked the world and feel of Adventure Time, though I didn't watch much of the last few seasons.

That's a-okay! I'm hoping that by both setting it some point in the future, and asking players to make original characters, we can avoid the need for players to have watched everything. Because there's a lot of it. It probably goes without saying, but if something does get introduced that isn't immediately clear about what it is, poke me to fix it!

And this means I've got a team of five players. I'm no longer accepting players for the game but if you read this and think "this is something I'm interested in", leave a message here and, should I lose a player or two, I'll contact you to see how we can bring you in.

OOC should be up later today, once I've had a few cups of tea and all the breakfast.

I’m gonna give a tentative interest here. I dunno if I’ll have the time yet to participate but I like adventure time and this seems cool.
