This would be based loosely on the Micheal Crichton novel, [i]Micro[/i], wherein a corporation figured out a way to use concentrated tensor fields to shrink machines, and even people! Reduced to half an inch tall (give or take), they were sending research teams and "expeditions" into natural areas, referred to as "The Micro-World". The Micro-World is a pretty dangerous place, even for it's normal denizens, and they're [i]adapted[/i] for life at that scale!

This rp wouldn't follow the story of the novel, instead the focus would be on different people. I also would do away with a ticking clock plot device called the "micro bends" (similar to the bends, a medical ailment one can develop from spending too much time in a pressurized environment such as the deep sea).

The premise of "Into The Micro-World" would, frankly, be equal parts "Honey, I Shrunk The Kids" and "Jurassic Park"; a mixed group of people, intended to only be in the micro-world for a short time, perhaps for professional reasons, instead end up lost and forced to try and survive long enough to be rescued, or otherwise find their way to a point where they can somehow try and contact the larger world for help.

If enough interest can be drummed up, I'll move this to Casual with a proper OOC page and character guidelines
