UPDATE!! One of our players has just gone on hiatus, so now there is officially one spot still free. Contact @DawnsEarlyLight for requirements and character sheets.

...and as you answer the door, you see none other than YouTube personality Bretman Rock wearing a black and gold Greco-Roman outfit complete with helmet and sandals. He exchanges a few greetings with you before giving you a scroll and a wooden chest, urging you to look through both items as quickly as possible and promising to explain everything.
While Bretman waits outside, you go back inside and set down the chest, then open the scroll and begin to read it.
“The Society Against Evil needs your help!
“You may have heard of us through Joey Graceffa’s show “Escape the Night” on YouTube Premium. While it is true that Mr. Graceffa has been involved in some of our most recent missions, the Society lost contact with him during an assignment at the Museum of the Dead earlier this month. Efforts are currently underway to locate Mr. Graceffa, but a far more urgent situation has recently come to our attention.
Those of you who are familiar with the show Escape the Night may have heard of a being known as the “cursed god”, and the Society has learned of a prophecy dating back to Ancient Greece saying that he would escape from his imprisonment in Tartarus and bring about the end of the world as we know it, unless certain mortals from the future travel back in time to stop him. To that end, given each of your particular skills, we are now reaching out to you to help us with this mission. If you succeed, you will have earned a place among the ranks of the Society Against Evil. But if you fail... believe us when we say you don’t want to know.
One of our newest agents, whom you may recognize as Bretman Rock, will take you by chariot to a ship that will transport you to Ancient Greece, where you will begin your mission. You have also been given a chest containing clothing that corresponds to a specific persona from ancient times. When you are ready to depart, you must be wearing this clothing and cannot carry anything with you from the modern era, or else the chariot and the ship will both remain hidden from your eyes. Bretman will answer as much of your questions as he can, and more will be explained to you in good time after you arrive, but bear in mind that time is of the essence.
Farewell, and best of luck."
The names “Joey Graceffa” and the “Society Against Evil” sound vaguely familiar. Weren’t they part of a show on YouTube Premium that was kind of like this, with several YouTubers being invited to parties in different time periods? And come to think of it, didn't those parties always somehow lead to everyone taking part in different challenges that resulted in all but a few of them being horribly murdered?
But maybe you're overthinking this. That was all fake, after all... wasn't it?
Bretman still stands at your doorstep, not-so-patiently awaiting your response.

For those of you who don't know, here's a quick summary of the show Escape The Night (which is currently available for free HERE). Having said that, I intend to design this RP so that no prior knowledge of the actual show is needed to enjoy the RP, so no worries if you have no idea what I'm talking about.
Escape the Night is a fantasy-horror web series/reality competition show on YouTube Originals (currently available for free HERE), created and hosted by Joey Graceffa. The show follows the adventures of Joey (playing the role of "The Savant") and several other YouTubers as they become entangled in the exploits of the Society Against Evil: an organization that has battled various forms of supernatural evil for centuries.
The basic format of the show has Joey and a handful of other YouTubers going back in time (the time period and setting changes with every season) and having to accomplish a wide range of missions and challenges in order to return home to the present, defeating the main villain of each season in the process. However, each episode also has a final challenge in which two YouTubers are chosen by vote to compete head-to-head; the winner survives, but the loser is killed off, typically in a horrific manner corresponding to the challenge.
Of course, it isn't always that simple, and there are a number of ways in which the show can and DOES deviate from this standard formula. I'd explain how, but I wouldn't want to spoil it for you guys, now would I?
