Topeka, Kansas, the permanent resting place of Blaine the mono in one of the many universes, but is now the site of a new battle between the line of Eld, and the minions of the Crimson King.

The bodies of dead children are scattered along the state, the cause of death unknown. They are found in tattered clothing, their feet bare and covered in blisters, and their hands callused. Autopsy reports show they are undernourished, dehydrated, battered and bruised. There is no forensic evidence that can lead authorities to the killer behind the heinous acts, not a single unknown hair or fingerprint other than those belonging to the children. Adding to the confusion, each child is from a different location, different ages, even different races; nothing that can link them together for investigators to find a pattern behind their kidnappings and deaths. Federal and state authorities are on a statewide search, seeking any hint, the tiniest clue that can lead them to who is killing these children before another victim can be claimed.

Enter the gunslingers, who are inexplicably pulled into the when of 2014 after stepping through a mysterious doorway which appeared on the outskirts of Gilead. They are called to our world with their mission unknown, but shortly discover the reason behind their appearance. Low men are running a muck of the state, using vampires and demons to help in their quest to assist the Crimson King in his destruction of the few remaining beams. It is up to the gunslingers to discover the exactly what he is up to, and stop him before he can succeed.

I know, my description of the rp is a bit lacking, but the idea is stuck in my head and I can't get it out! I'm looking for a group of 4-5 people who would be interested in doing this rp, however, they must have knowledge about both the Dark Tower series, and Black House. Essentially, the roleplay will take place in modern times, with two people playing the roles of gunslingers, and the rest playing roles involved in the investigation.

If anyone is interested, let me know. Once I get enough people, I will lay out the character sheets and type out a more thorough summary. :)

So from what I gather...
A party from the 21st century that is highly equipped with guns and ammo is sent to make clean a parallel universe where magic rules.
Wont we be to OP? I mean, a bullet to the head will likely kill off most minions summoned by any mage...
Interested nonetheless.

Not really. Their bullets would be limited to what they have on them. Low men are easy to kill, but demons are not. They wouldn't be traveling back and forth through the doorways, so they would be coming to 2014 only with what they have on them.

I'd be interested in a gunslinger :D It sounds like fun, though I would ask about more specific limits on equipment and amount of such XD

Should it be assumed that they 'cannot' replenish their ammo in this other world? or that they'd have to find ways to make ammo themselves? or perhaps even develop a way to use magic 'as' ammo instead? XD orrrr, what?

The gunslingers will come through with the clothes on their back, and whatever supplies they have on them. Once their ammo runs out, they will either need to come up with a way to purchase the materials they need to make more, or find a way to buy bullets. Unlike Roland, the gunslingers are not going to have guides to help them in the present, they're either going to have to make friends or wing it.

There's a few ways that thing can work, but for now I'm kind of testing the waters to see if I get any interest before I go into the finer details.
