I have a few ideas bouncing around my head at any given time, some original, some a little more "fanfic" ish, and some nostalgia fueled.

these are ideas/subjects I'd love to have a good rp with, and don't already have an interest post out for:

-Digimon (nostalgia, at this point there's a lot to the franchise I'm unfamiliar with)

-High Rollers (original, anime inspired, would make use of the dice roller, as well)

-Night Terrors (another original, horror, likely a reboot, as this is one I've done before)


-Spiral Zone (nostalgia, a 1980's action scifi cartoon, with some apocalyptic elements)

-Skeleton Warriors (more nostalgia-ish ideas, a 1990's action/scifi setting, with some fantasy and apocalyptic elements. Specifically, I would attempt a follow up to the conclusion of the series, as it left the primary antagonist dead [and the original source of the conflict destroyed], but his loyal legions still present, so continued conflict is still there, as well as a power vacuum to be filled among the villains.)

more idea's to come, maybe.

as usual, comment with interest, or pm me. I mark my rp's 18 and up, because I prefer to play with more mature, experienced players.

Edit: Some more ideas, because why not.

-Androids (namely, a more dramatic idea, less action. Androids living among humans, their status is not great, however. Many try to disguise themselves as humans, try to blend in and assimilate, while some refuse to do so, and go out of their way to distinguish themselves in some way from the humans. They face resentment, and an unequal place in society. Maybe that's too sensitive a subject matter, so I'd understand if people aren't enthusiastic about it)

-Vampires Vs. Androids (this one is, admittedly, more in the dumb camp. Vampires have been fighting for domination over Humanity for some time, weapons were created to try and combat Vampires more effectively, and the primary conflict of this particular story within this setting arises when Androids are discovered to have been created, but gotten lose and out of control; a bit of a "Screamers" situation)

-Star Wars: Scoundrels (What if GTA, but in a Galaxy far, far away?)


more to be determined later

-Land of the Giants (nostalgia, a bit of fanfic; a reimagining of the science fiction series is what would happen, in this)

Update: I've elaborated slightly more on the "Skeleton Warriors" idea, might give a more detailed outline on all these ideas as separate comments.

Suggestion: Start fleshing out the ideas some. There are a fair few elitist folks here who won't even take a second look at RP ideas unless there is more meat to them. As is there isn't alot here for anyone yet to really get in on.

I will admit to some of them in here peaking my interest. But well I don't have alot to go on quite yet. But you won't have to write out a 20 page essay to get my interest.

Just flesh the ideas out some so we have some more broader idea of what to expect.

Edit: I've crossed out a few ideas, two for being ideas I've attempted but never got off the ground and decided I just don't want to revisit them, one I've had short lived success with and have decided I don't want to revisit, and one I've decided isn't as good an idea as I thought it was at the time.

Another idea I've had that I want to identify and elaborate-

-Monster in my Pocket (a reimagining; instead of pint sized monsters running around as in the original comic and video game (among other things), the monsters of lore and fiction have died out over time. However, their spirits, their power, seems to persist. Monster hunters of one variety or another managed to capture these monster spirits, and sealed them away. One of the players would be surprised to find themselves related to one such monster hunter who has passed away, and a matter of inheritance included the stipulation that they take over safe guarding their "collection" in their place. Events take place that result in the extensive "collection", for lack of a better description... Escaping. Only one item/spirit remains, and it will have to be used to go about finding and recapturing the rest, resulting in a series of adventures where the characters willfully take on the spirit/attributes of monsters in order to fight other monsters, recapture them within their artifact vessel, and save the mortal they'd taken possession of. Message me with interest or questions, if I actually get any responses on this one I'll make an OOC for it)

Further Update, recalling my recent experiences: When I run an RP, I only allow one character per player. This applies to any RP I run.

Bump, with emphasis on the quoted idea.

Here's an idea (not a new one, I know that): Supernatural/paranormal circus!

More specific to my idea, any story would revolve around a traveling circus/carnival that is worked and operated by supernatural creatures. They hide as best as they can this way, but while the leadership is clear about the need to not draw too much scrutiny upon themselves, they can't necessarily control this "community". Case in point, the community can't seem to agree on whether this circus/carnival is a clever cover, or an effective trap, so while nobody is throwing caution to the wind in pursuit of settling the conflict, it's undeniable among them that the conflict is there.

There might even be room for one or more humans to get swept up in it, maybe forced to join the circus as a way to make sure they don't out the circus and it's true nature?

since that conflict among the performers is the closest thing I have to an overarching plot, and I don't think I want it to be overly serious, my working title is "Misadventures in The Midnight Circus"

So, I guess If I had to draw parallels, for the sake of visualizing it? I dunno, maybe, "What if Cirque Du Freak was more like Clive Barker's Nightbreed?"

Already made a separate post for a killer tomatoes rp, so not wasting time talking about that.

But what about something to do with ghosts? (No, I don't think I'll be revisiting Ghostbusters, rn). I have at least one original idea, but only barely a concept.

I'm reconsidering my stance on multiple characters... I doubt it would build interest in my rp's, but I realize my own stance reflected an adversarial view of player/gm relations, at least where multi-characters were involved, and I don't think that was fair, and said more negative things about me as a gm.

@BenG85
So I wouldn’t mind RPing with you again. The ideas that jump out to me are Vampires vs Androids, Star Wars criminals, Digimon, and definitely the supernatural circus.
