Name: Reawakened Genre: Supernatural Plot: A group of people come across a very old vampire who has been asleep for centuries. The only thing that saves them from being this vampire's next meal is that he/she has no clue how to adjust to the modern-day period Influences: Dracula, Dark Shadows.

Name: Around the World in 100 Days Genre: Adventure Plot: Two groups of friends win the lottery together, and decide to compete against one another- they race across the world, going on a scavenger hunt for the entire summer. With virtually unlimited funds now, they're determined to blow every last cent while they can. And what better way then to see the world? The stakes are high, however- there's always the possibility that they could be arrested or killed, as several parts of their journeys call for them to go diving in the Pacific Ocean, rock climbing the Grand Canyon, and driving top speeds through Stelvia Pass, Italy. Will they all make it back at the end? Influences: Lots and lots of Mika music. Some Scott Pilgrim, maybe. And nerdy references abound!

(United Universes) and the M.P. (Multiversal Powers). In this RP, you won't just get a chance to create a very unique character, but you can create a unique army and join whichever side of the war you please.

Could we get some expansion on the concept behind "Reawakened"? It holds promise, but could turn into something I find terrible, depending on how you take it.
~~~~~~~~~~~
And I tried to fill out a game suggestion, but I figured I'd just post a whole thread when one got clear enough in my head I could fill out this form
So, instead, what Genres and/or Influences would people be interested in joining? I might be able to work from there if they meet something I could work with.

Well, I've done RPs similar to Reawakened, so I tried to keep it simple for right now on TS, letting you guys take it from the beginning and moving on. Like for example, you could come up with why and how the vampire has been asleep for centuries, how the group of people found him, or how they help him adjust to the world.
Sorry it's not much help....x.x

Sorry it's not much help....x.x No, unfortunately, not a lot of help... though I appreciate keeping things open ended I don't really have enough to go on here as to how this would be handled, and as such I'm not sure if it would draw my interest. Okay, let's see here... Is anyone familiar enough with the following influences: ElfQuest, DinoRiders, Legend of Zelda, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Transformers, Starriors, Megaman, Star Trek, City of Heroes, X-Com, Crimson City, Metroid, Girl Genius, Chrono Trigger, Marvel Superheroes, Gamma World, Paranoia, Darkstalkers, or Exo-Squad? Keeping in mind of course that when I say "influences" I mean that if I were to start a roleplaying game influenced by any of these sources I would like it to be clear from the start that you would not need any familiarity with the source material, and I would prefer re-writing into something original rather than following the minutia of the established canon. In addition certain twists might be made, playing something in the 'wrong' genre. For example, I have an idea of a "horror" version of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles(though how horror-esque would depend on the player, as I can't really force the mood). Also, if you're unfamiliar with one of those above listed(and some of them are rather exotic), mention it and I can easily(in a paragraph or less) explain what that influence is, and what my ideas about the role playing game they would influence would be.

I'm holding off on the D&D(well, Microlite74) interpretation of Legend of Zelda because War of Farndis kinda fills that genre(some mecha ideas I have are also on hold for similar reason, though Transformers and Starriors are about as far away from War of Farndis as you can get while still being "mecha"). Also, a few incomplete ideas I'd like some feed back on...
Name: Twilight Between the Stars(working title) Genre: Sci-fi, Space Opera Plot: (see "issues") Influences: Mostly strongly influenced by playing Star Trek Online a bit too much now that it's gone free to play, however, I'd like to incorporate a few other things into the mix and not necessarily adhere strongly to Trek canon. So, things like Metroid or Halo inspired powered armor, Babylon 5 inspired things, my own twists on the rules of technology, and of course alien races from whatever the player comes up with...
Issues: Well, aside from the fact that I doubt anyone would be interested in the idea to begin with, the idea of organizing people seems the most difficult. Being that this is primarily Star Trek inspired, it would be NICE if we could form a whole crew, but since everyone wants to be Kirk and nobody likes Sulu it seems, it might be best to have everyone captaining their own ship(with multiple characters making up their crew), and a whole fleet/convoy... One idea I'm trying is that the RP starts in the aftermath of a sudden and brutal surprise attack from an unknown menace, their ships disabled and key components missing, which means everyone has to work together and donate parts in order to make at least one whole ship which now has to get back to civilization carrying the warning of what just happened to them(or prepare to fight the menace as it attacks again). Alien cultures clashing and rival personalities angling for dominance and all that. Another idea would be space warfare but Boundaries of War seems to have the war angle covered, and quite frankly I'd want to put a personal face on it, with individual characters and personalities, rather than the large scale game of miniatures that Primus seems to want(which can be awesome fun all the same).
Anyway, is there anyone here who'd like a scifi/space opera/Star Trek RP, and if so in what form would they prefer to play(what roles would they find acceptable, and more importantly what would turn them off from the idea they were initially draw to)?
Finally...
Name: Triumph City v3(working title) Genre: Superhero Plot: The city needs a new team of heroes to be their bastion of hope, and you've got the powers to do just that... Influences: Marvel Comics, City of Heroes, Champions
Issues: I'm still technically running Triumph City v2, v1 died when TS v2 did, and so I'd actually like a variation on both name and plot(though the original plot is that your characters are gathered by a Superman/CaptainAmerica/Statesman/Defender type hero who wants to retire, and this v3 may take a different route). School for the Triumphant tried to take it into Harry Potter land, what with there being a school where the heroes learned their abilities and were reassured along the way, but that looks to have fallen apart as being too impersonal.
So, is anyone here at all interested in the superhero genre, and if so, what parts of it would be cool to see in an RP?

Name: A FABULOUS~ MECHA GAME (working title) Genre: Comedy, Parody, Real Robot, (Melo)Drama, Action Plot: Okay, take the plot of Code Geass. Exiled prince becomes a CHAR, has an ungodly amount of siblings, double life, etc. Now take the already melodramatic series and tweak the silly levels to 9001. Keep playing this entirely, completely seriously (in universe) for the most part. Toss in the equally silly, overdramatic Gundam Wing. That should tell you where I'm going with this. You play a group of Terrorists Bishies Batmen freedom fighters fighting the oppressive kingdom known as Mu that has taken over your homeland, lead by the masked man Char Aznable Zero Theta. You have a few Mobile Suits Knightmare Frames Gamma Suits built by a group of mad scientists ON THE FUCKING MOON, given to your ungodly bishie aces, as well as a few other stolen grunt units. Most of them also juggle school life at a prestigious academy, where most of them try to stop one of said bishie pilots from killing a princess that goes to said school as well (don't ask, it's complicated).
Opposing you is the Holy Mu Empire, an empire that's conquered most of the world with use of their Gamma Suits mecha. They have an ungodly amount of princes and princesses. And space colonies. They ALSO have a masked man/Char Clone called Ruin Kaine (who looks like if you dressed Char himself up as a pirate).
Assisting them is the OX group, a former Earth Federation group that was taken over by Mu (this happens. ...often, apparently) that maintains most of the conquered lands. They, like our rebels and Mu, have their own crazy masked man known as Roku. He probably wants to drop the moon on Earth.
There's also the remaining members of the Earth Federation, who surprisingly don't have a loony masked man (or so they think), instead having a man known as Ses Peengas (who insists he isn't the infamous Red Star, a blonde masked man who likely inspired our other masked men). They probably won't do much in this game. Influences: Code Geass, Zeta Gundam, Xabungle, Full Metal Panic!, Gundam Wing, Super Robot Wars Z2, RahXephon.

We already have one "giant robots" RP going, or not going possibly, and from the sound of it your efforts on this would be overly complicated and ultimately not as well thought out as it would be if you removed some of the redundant materials(three to four masked men in leadership positions).
That said, I encourage you to post an OOC thread and see if you can even get VIEWS on this forum.

Well, to combat with the whole, everyone wants to be a bride and not the bridesmaids complex, why not just make that captain an NPC, and have the players be underlings, where the role of the captain could possibly rotate who writes from them. Then you can keep the RP centered on one 'stage' and have everyone working towards a common goal.

That's actually not a bad idea, though of course that means all the players would have to agree to "build" a Captain jointly, wouldn't it? There'd probably be other hurdles to overcome... still, not a bad idea. I may try to start this up if I get any more feedback.

You see how I took something that I didn't like about your RP, and instead of shooting it down, I made a small change and gave you positive feedback on it? Sometimes, even if you don't like the RP, it can be better for you and the other person if you remain positive when pointing out things you don't like, because it encourages creativity, and that encourages better role playing. Even if you just completely disagree with the role play, it's better for you to sound off positively, than come at the person with a completely negative opinion, because all that does is discourage people from Role playing at all, and that takes away from your creative experience as much as their's in the long run.

No, to be entirely honest, I do not see how you did what you claim you did... neither do I understand how it is applicable enough to require your stating of such claims, but I do appreciate that somebody is taking the time to provide feedback at all, considering the state of the RPU as a whole.

I figured why not try and actually do something old school?

A synopsis, link, or download for perspective players who are less versed would be appreciated, but probably unneeded(as those of us wishing to go in depth can, as you say, find the books).
Oh, how do you intend to work the dice pool system and turn based combat? I've seen it work, but usually modification for forum posting is suggested, so I'm interested in hearing your ideas.

Name: Velveteen Aegis Genre: Religious Introspection, Magical World, possibly Horror. Plot: "Hey! Outta bed sleepy head! Heheheheh, that rhymes! Though... you're not really in a bed..."
Your head aches as you sit up. A soft dew has formed and you have a chill throughout your young body. You feel like you're not dressed for this. You're just wearing normal clothing, and you're out in the woods, with no sign of civilization anywhere.
"I gathered a few berries, but we really need to move!" You can hear a baying of some wild animal off in the depths of the dark forest. It calls for your blood. "Really need to move. So up and at 'em!"
You don't remember how you came here. In fact, you don't even remember your own body. It feels strange, like you had dreamed you were someone else, and now you're awakening to the real you.
Oh, and you seem to have your favorite stuffed toy there with you, scampering about and talking to you, trying to get you motivated(as if the beasts in the forest weren't enough motivation) to get moving off the mountain and out of the forest. That in itself is probably just a little odd for you.
Better adapt. You haven't seen what dreams may come in this world.
Influences: Dante's Inferno, Digimon, Velveteen Rabbit, Winnie the Pooh Issues: We'd need a minimal of two players to make "one" character(both the child and the stuffed animal must work as a team, but are also different personalities with different knowledge bases). A surprising amount of important plot altering information is hidden from some of the players, which most people might not be interested in.

Name: Final Galaxy Ship Alseon Genre: Drama, Sci-fi, Mecha (Real Robot to exact) Plot: It is the year 0052 of the Omnipresent Calender, the year of launch for the Galaxy Ship Alseon, a mobile space colony set on course to find a second home for humanity after a recent encounter with an unknown alien force that wiped out the space colonies hovering Mars. On board the Alseon are the 19 series Enhanced Battalion Viking fighter (EB-19 Vikings for short), an all-purpose mecha that alternates between a space fighter mode akin to a jet and a fifteen meter tall humanoid war machine, in case of an encounter with the alien forces.
However, during the ship's trek for a secondary home, it somehow got entangled into a wormhole that sent the ship towards the other end of the universe. The alien force that had targeted the Mars colonies is now in full assault against Earth, with the space ship also being entangled in the millennial war between two separate alien forces- the inhuman Densone and the human-like Utusone, two races that are the males and females of the same species respectively (much to the confusion of the ship's crew, as they look hardly alike).
The game follows the travels of the Alseon on its newfound trek to return to Earth and assist in battle, as well as encountering the forces of the Densone and Utusone. Influences: The Gundam meta-series, Super Dimension Fortress Macross, Armored Troopers VOTOMS, Vandread

Name: Twipocalypse Genre: Drama, Action Adventure, Post-Apocalyptic, Romance ( ?) Plot: Originally created by the lovely SanityOuttheWindow on TSv1, this thread as been on both of the previous versions of the RPU, and is GREAT for getting to know the players rather well since we all hate Twilight. In general, Stephanie Meyer has became Supreme Evil Overlord of the entire world, filling the minds of everybody within it with Twilight-love. We're a group of survivors who haven't been brainwashed, and thus- we're the rebel alliance and freedom fighters for a new tomorrow! CONS: Twilight hate seems to have died down. We also don't have Chi to play the awesome Dr. Maerson. Influences: Twilight, things of the post-apocalyptic genre, Star Wars (Well, we're a rebel alliance...) Name: The Fuck-Alls Genre: Superheroes, Comedy, Action Adventure, Romance ( ?) Plot: We basically play a group of raunchy superheroes! Their biggest enemy: The Overlords of Chastity. ... Don't judge me!Influences: An old RP me, Meka, and Per used to be in (Along with a few others, but they don't seem to be around anymore) on another site.

Penny, the original name for that RP was "The Sex League" and it never actually started up. The out of character thread with all the character sheets was amusing though.
As for Twipocolypse... eh. I personally wasn't involved in the first, and don't think I'd join a restart of it, but don't see anything wrong with it. It was very popular as I recall.
Final Galaxy Ship Alseon sounds interesting to me. Could you expand on your idea a little? What role would our characters play?

Final Galaxy Ship Alseon sounds interesting to me. There's not terribly much to explain, especially since it's a pretty blatant homage to Macross, but sure. Could you expand on your idea a little? What role would our characters play? You have the choice from rolling Utusone, Densone, and a human aboard the Alseon. The Utusone and Denone are pretty much soldier/warrior only for playable. Humans can either be bridge crew, civilian (with a rather minor role, in all likeliness), or a pilot of an EB-19 combating the Densone and Utusone.

Gee, what an idea for a thread. Wonder who thought it up.
Name: Caped Crusaders (name's up for grabs, folks; it's a work-in-progress) Genre: Historical/Superhero/Crime-drama Plot: Chicago, 1929: the unbridled apex of organized crime in America, at the very height of Prohibition in the US. In the 'Windy City', bootlegging reigns supreme, and ruthless criminal kingpins like Al Capone rule over the land with an iron fist, duping outgunned and outmanned law enforcement and keeping the people under their command with threats of terror and violent reprisal. Upon taking office in a landslide victory after the 1928 election, thirty-first President Herbert Hoover charged his Secretary of Treasury, Andrew Mellon, with bringing down the criminal enterprises of Al Capone and those of his ilk. Instead of a select squad of elite cops, however, the federal government invested in another source of crime deterrent: superheroes. In this version of the famous (and equally infamous) Roarin' Twenties, it was superheroes - costumed vigilantes, crusaders against crime in capes and cowls - that took the center stage, combating crime and spreading truth, justice, and the American way from sea to shining sea. With government sponsorship of their newfound supergroup, these masked men and women have united to take a stand against organized crime, and seek to shut down these villainous bootleggers by force. Influences: The Untouchables, Boardwalk Empire, Watchmen, The Avengers

Name: Deathless Lands Genre: Action/Adventure, Mythology Plot: For once, the Olympians were bested in something they never expected: the Underworld has been taken over by one of its more dangerous prisoners, the man Sisyphus, known for being charismatic enough to trap death, has bound and sealed many of the Cthonic deities in the Underworld, including Hades, thus stopping death in its tracks. Now no one can die and shades return to haunt and plague the living in the form of undead. Unfortunately for Sisyphus, he overlooked one particular figure: the goddess Persephone is still free and able to resist him and his undead horde. Granted she may need some help... Influences: God of War, Classical Mythology, DMC, Bayonetta
^Is it bad I think this would be a great concept for a videogame? Admittedly I see the mechanics being GoW-type ones.

Well, I've done RPs similar to Reawakened, so I tried to keep it simple for right now on TS, letting you guys take it from the beginning and moving on. Like for example, you could come up with why and how the vampire has been asleep for centuries, how the group of people found him, or how they help him adjust to the world.
Sorry it's not much help....x.x No, unfortunately, not a lot of help... though I appreciate keeping things open ended I don't really have enough to go on here as to how this would be handled, and as such I'm not sure if it would draw my interest. Okay, let's see here... Is anyone familiar enough with the following influences: ElfQuest, DinoRiders, Legend of Zelda, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Transformers, Starriors, Megaman, Star Trek, City of Heroes, X-Com, Crimson City, Metroid, Girl Genius, Chrono Trigger, Marvel Superheroes, Gamma World, Paranoia, Darkstalkers, or Exo-Squad? Keeping in mind of course that when I say "influences" I mean that if I were to start a roleplaying game influenced by any of these sources I would like it to be clear from the start that you would not need any familiarity with the source material, and I would prefer re-writing into something original rather than following the minutia of the established canon. In addition certain twists might be made, playing something in the 'wrong' genre. For example, I have an idea of a "horror" version of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles(though how horror-esque would depend on the player, as I can't really force the mood). Also, if you're unfamiliar with one of those above listed(and some of them are rather exotic), mention it and I can easily(in a paragraph or less) explain what that influence is, and what my ideas about the role playing game they would influence would be.
Sorry to reply to an old post but some of the titles caught my eye. *I* am familiar with: ElfQuest, DinoRiders, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Transformers, Star Trek: TNG, and Marvel Superheroes.
Wow... ElfQuest and DinoRiders... I wish I saw this post earlier. Also, a HUGE TMNT fan. Mainly of the 80's show original Live Action Movie and the Archie version of the comics, though I do know the original version.
