Hi!
Well, let's try this again, shall we? :3
I have some ideas in mind for a story-driven, character-focused urban fantasy centred around the employees of a paranormal investigation agency. Something with a little bit of flavour of The Dresden Files or maybe even League of Extraordinary Gentlemen - plenty of mystery, danger, intrigue, and the occasional bare-knuckle knock-down drag-out fight. There will be lots of story, and the gameplay will not be a "bring your own adventure" sandbox, although the actions of the characters will certainly weigh on the story. I'm flexible. :3
Just as some highlights as to the general tone -
- Your characters will be mature, reasonably stable, adults. Psychopaths, loners, emotionally deadened soldiers, and blood-crazed murderers will almost certainly not be accepted.
- Nobody is at war with anybody else, at least as far as the story goes. This is not humans vs. ghosts, or vampires vs. faery creatures, or weretuna vs. undead zombie fishermen. There might be a couple zombies, though. Maybe.
- The overall tone is going to be fairly serious - not Batman-level "darkness-no-parents," all the same. Bring a sense of humour.
- The characters will not be first-come first-served. You'll have to audition, as it were, and I'll help. :3
- I'm expecting a smallish cast (Likely no more than six people).
- While your character doesn't have to be human, you have to super duper impress me to write a supernatural creature, mythic monster, or similar. :3
- Most of the story is going to revolve around clues that unravel a reasonably complex plot, not demonstrating how many guns you can fire at once.
I rather hope that hasn't driven off all the interest. Still, let me know if you want to hear more in the form of an OOC thread! :3
Cheers!
