It all started off small, it never came near the town itself but as the number of headlines grew it seemed each death was a foot print closer to the Town of Tenfork. A name given for this towns many forks in the road that split it apart, now there is going to be a new fork in the road.

The one between life and death.

The high school prom is coming up and everyone is making a big deal out of it. The apathetic and depressed wallow about its superficiality, brought along by peer pressure while the average students considers the implications of who and if they get a date this year will mean in the long run. It seems in the world of angst every positive to the adults has a negative to the teens themselves yet the stampede for the event has been unrelenting as the weeks follow up. For whatever reason you and a few others are the few without dates to it two weeks to the prom.

Clocks ticking...

School Schedule


The start period is counted with everyone choosing what teens they are going to be. All TEENS must pick 1 positive trait and 1 negative trait for their character. This is for the prom section. The relationship period will last 2 week real time. Players will be using a layout to properly allow players to post freely without disrupting posting order.

During the first two weeks of the RP it will play out as a standard slice of life. Your goal durring this time is to develope relationships, accrue drama, fall in love, make enemies, make friends and generally life your live. Your prime goal is to get a prom date. The more relationships and drama you do, the more points you accrue..

The PROM: At the prom the killer will appear and it will become a fight for your life. The killer can be anyone at anytime, from close lovers to hated rivals and even family members. Durring this time each players has 3 chances to dial the cops until the cops consider you to be unreliable and stop responding, you also have the option to try to kill another player if you believe they are the killer themselves-or for purely personal reasons- by donning the same costumes and weapon. You get this option ONCE and you can fail to kill someone.

Then you got to figure out who the real killer is before you are all chipped away or total chaos ensues and dooms you all. Figuring out who is who is paramount, if you don't do it before an unrealesed deadline in real life the killer gets away and becomes untracable due to their tracks going cold, you have no way of reliable guessing if they're come back to finish their spree by adding you to that list at a later date.







KILLING


Any points gained in Relationship are used to buy two things

1: Things which can help you survive, be it traits or items. The list of possible items may not always be the same and is sent privately to each person to purchase upon prom stage.

2: Things which can help you kill. The killer has the full list of possible killer traits and items to buy t, while those attempting to off another person out of suspect or personal reason with their one chance get a much smaller, randomized list in which they can spend their accrued points.

No one will know another person list of possible choices nor their chosen purchases-these remain secret besides the initial trait in character creation-

-------------------------------------------

MURDER ATTEMPT

-------------------------------------------

When a murder attempt goes down a player is sent a PM, if multiple players are involved they are included in the PM cycle. Durring this period things will be happening in a period of hours before the first chase or strike is made in which case the post will count as happening 1 to 5 minutes between each other in RP time. The player must find a way to escape, moving from each room and using what they have. If they manage to escape the killers sight and get out of the initial map or make the killer flee-or somehow get authority help- then they survive the murder attempt. If they don't then the scene goes on until the killer catches them and finally kills them.

Murder attempts should be done quickly and I expect a post a day in a murder attempt.

Murders can only happen either if NIGHT DESCENDS ....or...your target is totally alone-even if they're alone in public space, like the library- The person making the killing attempt will send me the post and I will post it for them-maybe after editing some give away writing quirks or patterns- so no one knows who the killer or the murder attempt maker is meta-wise.

-----------------------------------------------------

OOC STUFF

-----------------------------------------------------

This is a rehash of an older RP idea I had ages back. It's virtually the same in a lot of ways although I've added new mechanics and concepts. This is HEAVILY inspired by the SCREAM series, a slasher fic where the fear is based on the anonymity of the costume and ultimately no one knowing who could be the serail killer at play.

Oh, and before you ask, yes, I did choose the cheesiest angsty teen theme I could find.

1: 3 days to post maximum. If you don't post then your turn is skipped. If you repeatedly have your turn skipped then you are killed off by me.

2: 2 paragraphs with leanience.

3: Try to keep your post under 6 paragraphs on average. Once again, very leanient on this.

4: You may not be chosen to be the killer, so please keep that in mind joining up.

5: You may be gruesomely killed off, possibly early on. So be prepared for that.

6: This needs 8 people to start.

IF YOU ARE NOT INTO THIS RP: Then try checking out my other IC which has similair themes but involves monsters and a dating show: roleplayerguild.com/topics/179052-dat…

If, somehow, Date or Devil or this SUDDENLY shoot up. I'll be hosting one of them depending on who has the most people. The one that has less will not be hosted.

Cool, I'm interested. If you are murdered, you can relaunch your activity and submit a new CS??

@role model

No, because the potential for meta knowledge would be too strong. Since any clues or things in a post that can give away your killer could still be there and obsfucation is paramount for the paranoia affect.

If it starts I might open up like adult roles for teachers and essentially non-game playing NPCS for the murdered if they like.
