[Dark Themes]




Welcome to the 21st, Traveler.


"I'm Not Gonna Sit Here And Pretend To Know What Makes Us Who We Are. But I Gotta Figure It's More Than Just The Sum Of What We Remember."





[Preface]

This roleplay will be based within the universe of the "Travelers" television show, although, emphasizing events within Western Europe rather than the Northwest United States. As there is a disconnect between the main show setting and the setting of the roleplay, the story points within will be wholly unique (except for major show events) thus major knowledge of the show's story is not required. The story will cover certain dark themes such as drug addiction, gun violence, and murder.

[The World]



[Story Expectations]

While the completion of the Director's mission will be one of the primary focuses of the story, the exploration of your character's story is as well. As per protocol 5, you will be expected to explore the life of your host as if it is the first time, this is because the consciousness of a traveler effectively erases the one of the host, and all the memories of the host will be gone. This factor gives a level of complexity to living as the host, as a traveler must go off the limited information they were given of the host before implantation. The Director, although magnitudes above human intelligence, is not without flaws; Travelers are often placed into bodies with different ailments the Director was not able to account for because of a lack of historical records (This is only an option to add an extra layer of detail to your character if you would like).

Although the story of this roleplay is primarily centered around France, as our team progresses through several missions we shall leave the confines of France to perform in countries such as Switzerland, Italy, and Spain. If during the story anyone has an idea for a mission or a location for a mission we can work to implement it into the story!

[Player Expectations]

My expectations for my players are relatively simple; I only expect my players to post once a week (or later if informed of circumstances) of at least two paragraphs in length, to respect other players, and to have fun!

[Traveler Roles]

  • [Team Leader] - TAKEN by @Festive
  • [Historian] - TAKEN by @JewelSerket
  • [Tactician] - OPEN
  • [Engineer] - OPEN
  • [Medic] - TAKEN by @meri


[Our 1st Mission]

Traveler XXXX, Welcome to Lyon. Your mission: assassinate Monsieur Pierre-Henri Druveau, an industrialist and hardliner in the French nuclear power movement, who is primarily driven by the profits of the industry. As a result of Druveau's bribes to the Autorité de sûreté nucléaire (ASN), to allow his company to continue the shoddy construction of several nuclear power plants, every single powerplant built by Druveau will end in meltdown. The nuclear disasters will expose nuclear material over several major cities such as Montipellier, Nice, and Lyon; killing hundreds of thousands of people and leaving these cities uninhabitable. Eliminate Druveau and sabotage construction; end of message--

The first post is out; I had a busy Easter Sunday (church and all that jazz), so sorry for the early morning post.

Should I drop a character in for approval? I only ask because that seems to be the norm on this particular website.

I feel as though it isn't necessary for the world in which the story takes place. One of the gimmicks of the show is that the backstories of Travelers remain a mystery and that the Traveler has to learn and explore the life of the host throughout the story. All I ask is that you have an idea of the host's life before the Traveler took over and incorporate that into your initial T.E.L.L. and further posts.

Also if you could give your character a specific dialogue color that would be great.

@meri Oh shoot, sorry, I knew there was something I was forgetting to do. I'll have a post up this week, on the early side I think.
