Hey guys! I know I already have Defectives and Mystic Lake Academy open for signups, and I have CHB with @/melancholy, but I just can’t help myself. I have to see what the interest level is for an idea I’ve been wanting to make!
This probably won’t start until at least May, but I wanted to go ahead and post it here.
The Afterlife Arcade
The afterlife. What an interesting idea. Nobody alive truly knows what life is like after death. The dead however, know merely part of what their afterlife is like. Some individuals move on to wherever their final resting place is right away, while others have some unfinished business they have to deal with first. Then some didn’t do enough of note to sway them in any direction of where they should spend their afterlife. Those who didn’t move on immediately, entered a realm that has been called purgatory. Over the millennia of human existence, many have passed through purgatory and multiple individuals have come to rule over and shape this land of lost souls to fit their own desires. The current leader of purgatory has only taken control in the most recent of years, and she has certainly made her mark on the realm. Under her vision, purgatory has become her arcade. Everything happens with the goal of gaining points. You play her game to win. After all, what better of a grand prize could be offered than for another chance at life, or to shape purgatory for the future souls to come.
The RP will start as a group of approximately 5 characters have just died in a mass casualty event and entered purgatory. Where they will discover what awaits them in this afterlife. Other characters’ dates of death could range from recent years, to ancient times. Throughout the rp, the characters will be trying to find closure and move on to the next phase of their afterlife, enjoying purgatory, or completing challenges to gain afterlife points.
What Are Afterlife Points
Afterlife points are earned by characters completing challenges and tasks, or by gaining certain achievements.
These points go toward the character earning the chance to compete in the final challenge for the grand prize.
Challenges & Achievements
Challenges are various activities characters can do, they can range from simple, something like playing a game, to harder tasks such as fighting enemies or scaling a tower.
Achievements can be earned by having a character do certain things. Some easier, and others harder.
Each character will start the rp with their first achievement.
Example
Achievement Earned: “So, You died…”
Die and enter purgatory- 0 points earned
I am changing some things for the Fated Souls RP that I suggested previously in this thread, so when I get it a bit more developed I will see what everyone thinks, especially now that there are more of us RPers here.
