Premise:
It was a cold but lovely Winter evening in downtown New York City. Well if it wasn’t for the crimson red skies and the giant hole looming menacingly from up above. The streets were all but deserted, by the living that is.
The ghostly community of New York were on a rampage and no one was safe. If only there was a group of heroes made for this job. Who you gonna call?
The Ghostbusters of course! But with even them on the case the massive ghost rampage across the city have spread them and their allies out thin, but then they get a call about a massive electrical storm at 550 Central Park West. The Shandor building created as a portal to other realms. Letting their allies deal with the ghost the four main Ghostbusters make their way to the building and as they arrive find a peculiar sight. On the ground several humanoid figures laid motionless. It didn’t take long for the group to realize that they were travelers from other dimensions who had somehow arrived in this world. Was their arrival and the sudden ghost outbreak connected?
Heading back to the Firehouse with their new travelers who are left in the hands of the very capable Janine Melnitz and a few other allies, the Ghostbusters ride back into the night to try to find the cause of the outbreak in the city while the people left in the Firehouse to try to figure out how and why they had arrived here.
However as they try to figure out the cause, little do they know that one among them has a sinister ploy planned for all of them…before the night is over there will be more dead roaming the streets.
Mechanics
There will be a single assailant among the group that every round will kill one of the other members of the group and it will be up to the living to find and killer in question. To make it a bit more interesting if you do not catch the killer by the end of the round it will move to a new character until the killer has been found.
With that out of the way welcome back to another Convergence series event! Up next is some rules.
Rules
1. Please be respectful towards everyone. As the GM my word is law, but I imagine there wont be a lot of problems.
2. This should be a given, but no godmodding / metagaming!
3. Players of all posting levels are welcome here. That being said, please at least put something whenever you make a post. You can also use images if you want, but keep in mind in that case that I'd like as little IC posts being nothing but image spam or so as possible. Speaking of image spam, please only post a maximum of three images / GIFs per post in order to not flood the page with images that make it harder to load.
4. I plan to go for a quick pace, so it might be beneficial to seek out other users to be your "posting partners" so that you have some people you can stick with. Using the tagging system is very much recommended just so that you or your fellow rpers don’t accidentally fall behind. This is actually very important. It's fine (and encouraged) to only keep up with a few characters / players for the majority of the game, as that is far easier than trying to keep tabs on everyone. Summaries and important GM posts will be made prominent.
5. Please post once a chapter. Chapters will generally last from a few days up to a week, so you'll hopefully have time. Not doing so will result in your character possibly being removed from the game. At the very least, PM me if anything comes up and I'll do my best to keep you around.
With that out of the way here’s the character sheet! As mentioned fandom and OCs are equally welcome to join! No duos this time around!
The roleplay will start on February 27th.
Character sheet
Appearance: Self-explanatory. Just a picture is fine.
Name: What is your character's name? Do they generally go by an alias / nickname?
Age: Chronologically, how old is your character?
Canon: What does your character originate from? Or if original character just say OC.
Powers / Abilities / Equipment: What is your character capable of, and if they have notable items they carry around, like weapons, is there anything special about them? In any case, even just a Wiki link is fine.
Short Bio: What is your character's backstory in a nutshell leading up to how they came to come here? Once again, pretty much just a Wiki link is acceptable.
Other Info: Optional. Just basically any extra info you feel is necessary that I as the GM should know about.
