This RP has started. The IC is here: https://www.storytellerscircle.com/threads/dead-or-lie.6894/
There's absolutely no denying it. In some way, in some manner, you've been naughty.
Maybe you're a criminal, maybe you're just a bad guy, or maybe you're someone who was simply in the wrong place at the wrong time; no matter the reason, you've done something bad enough to make someone want to take justice against you. In most civilized societies, you'd be in jail.
Whether hurting others is something you take enjoyment in or it is something you feel is absolutely necessary, today is your day of judgment. You don't remember how and you don't remember when, but you've been taken from the world you know and placed somewhere you can't identify. Others are there with you and, for whatever reason, you can sense these people aren't so nice either.
This new world almost feels like a dream. It almost can't be real. Perhaps you've died... Perhaps it's all a lie.
The clock is ticking.
In this RP, you will be playing a fandom character (or OC) who has done something in their lives bad enough to land themselves in jail. The most obvious candidates are those who would be considered a villain in their canon and it is suggested you play these kinds of characters considering the subject matter of the RP. It's not required, however, and you may play a character more morally grey required that you can argue them deserving of being imprisoned.
Does that mean your characters will start off in jail? Maybe, maybe not. The characters will explicitly not know or remember how they came to be a part of the RP's setting, but all will wake up somewhere unfamiliar to them, pooled together for some mysterious reason.
Also, keep in mind this RP will possibly involve character death, but any characters who do die will still be able to play as part of the story. It is entirely possible no one will die depending on how the story plays out.
All characters with powers or special weapons will be tempered to a degree where most everyone will be on the same playing ground strength-wise. Whether this will change as the RP goes on is not guaranteed.
If you're wondering if there are any specific fandoms this RP references or will draw from, there will be some definite allusions to both Danganronpa and Resident Evil, but neither fandom will be explicitly prominent and no one unfamiliar with either fandom should be lost or confused.
There will be a few mechanics of the RP that require me to privately message the players. A section of the character template is dedicated to your preferred form of contact!
1) Naturally, all of STC's guidelines apply here.
2) Please be respectful towards everyone, including me and my helper / co-GM, @Ver
3) This RP is a part of a series called the Convergence Series. If you're a newcomer, welcome! Though Convergence is a mass fandom roleplay with its own original lore that's been built up and up for a while, don't let all that intimidate you. Previous knowledge of the series or any of the past events isn't required. That being said, as a fairly tight-knit community, we suggest and encourage you to join our Discord server.
4) No OOC talk in the IC, please. Keep it in this thread or the group's Discord.
5) This should be a given, but no godmodding / metagaming.
6) Players of all posting levels are welcome here. That being said, please at least put something whenever you make a post. We'd like no IC posts with nothing but image spam. Any posts like this will be deleted as spam. 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. Generally, less is more!
7) Due to the intended speed of the game, using the tagging system is absolutely required. Summaries and important GM posts will be made prominent.
8) The RP will progress as a series of chapters. Please post at least once a chapter. Chapters will generally last from a few days up to a few weeks, so you'll hopefully have plenty of 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.
9) You may only play one character.
10) Most importantly, have fun! (Within reason)
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? If your character is an OC, just say "OC" or "Convergence Series," depending on where they come from of course. If your character is an OC specifically from an established canon, put the name of the canon and "OC" next to it.
Powers/Weaponry: Doesn't have to be too in-depth.
Short Bio: What is your character's backstory leading up to how they came to this point? Pretty much just a Wiki link is acceptable. Do include what makes them worthy of being a part of this RP, so do describe their bad deeds!
Can you be contacted privately? If so, what is your preferred way to be contacted?: Yes/No. You can either put through PMs here on STC or through direct messages on Discord.
Other Info: Optional. Just basically any extra info you feel is necessary.
