Hey all,
I'm now asking for partners (through a status update, simple like that), so this thread is closed for discussion. Thank you to those who have commented.
I have an idea for a 1x1, but I'm not sure how to market it. (There isn't an official thread for it on RPN, so I believe it's within the rules to ask for advice on it here.) Please read through the "blurb" I have in the spoiler and tell me how to remove cliches and fluff, get the plot description as exciting as I can, and make my OOC expectations clearer.
New MoonA new millennium was supposed to come, one that shined like silver. A millennium of peace, protected by girls whose magic could transform them into Sailor Soldiers. What we didn't know about that millennium is that before it could come, there would be an era marred by destruction. That age began in the far future, when the last of the Sailor Soldiers disappeared and there was nobody to protect Earth. When a lonely and power-hungry queen named Ceruss came to the planet from a faraway kingdom, Earth was ravaged by natural disasters, and lava, wind, and waves left cities in ruins.
Fifty years later, a landscape of steel, tech, and junk has emerged from the rubble, at least in Tokyo. It's run by magical gangs, tech worshipers, and ultimately Queen Ceruss, the ruler of her newly-shaped world. Yet, people can live in it, and if they search, they can find friendship and hope.
One day, two friends rescue a stray cat, who opens her mouth and explains to them that they're reincarnations of the magical girls. The two are called Sailor Soldiers, and they have the power to protect and heal the planet. There are two more of them, plus a princess whose power is said to match Queen Ceruss's.
The four Sailor Soldiers must learn to work together, bring peace to this new Tokyo, search for the Princess, and eventually, confront Queen Ceruss. Will they find a way back? A way forward? And at what cost?
This idea is a fusion of Sailor Moon and a post-apocalyptic futuristic world. It's grittier than the 90s Sailor Moon anime was, although it's not grimdark. Our characters would be fighting evil by moonlight, living post-apocalyptic life by daylight.
The two of us would double, each playing two OC versions of the Sailor Soldiers. As for posting speed, I would reply once or twice a week. I'd type two to four paragraphs in my replies, and would like a similar detail level from you. Finally, if we play this together, I'd love if we could chat OOC and maybe become friends.
If you're interested in playing, please PM me! Thanks for reading this!
