Perihelion is the title of a novel I have recently begun to write, and I am hoping to start up an engaging role-play centered around its plot. Although characters and events within this role-play will not be directly mirrored in the novel, it will greatly influence the story's finer details. Following is a synopsis of the story line; after reading, please vote either positively or negatively according to your interest.
"As the once vibrant and teaming planet of Xiphios is being violently pulled apart from an unidentified entity, the people of this world have developed an astonishing adaptation- the instincts and inhibitions of wild creatures. At the moment of their births, children are granted these spirits by the stars they are born beneath, an unprecedented phenomenon that occurs to make up for the deteriorating state of the human soul. These spirits become more and more dominant the more trauma a person endures, and in due time one can phase between human and animal form at will.
It has long been spoken that thousands of years ago, the soul of one boy was interrupted by a cosmic visitor that sweeps by every half a century- Comet Infiora. The stories of this cometary spirit have echoed across the millennia and have gradually gained intensity the more grim the circumstances on Xiphios became. Now, the entirety of Xiphios looks to this one soul as their god, proclaiming his life had been sustained by that of Infiora whilst he witnessed civilizations rise and fall.
My name is Gareara. Unfortunately, I live right next door to Eubashner City, which is probably the greatest example of how absolutely doomed our future here looks. Most of the large towers have toppled over by now. The heavy seismic activity in this reason also destroyed my livelihood and most of my family, and I have been seeking solace ever since. It is much easier to accept the fate of our planet than buy into the cheesy legend that the cometary spirit just might be able to save us, but for the sake of those I have watched perish I have to take this scenario with a little more weight. There are those out there with connections to the Cometary One if he does truly exist, and I am not the type to sit back and pray for tomorrow.
I'll seize it."
For the sake of a pliable story, I will leave the form nice and airy. To tie up a couple of loose ends, species on Xiphios reflect those on Earth, but aren't restricted to the color palettes and anatomy of them. Mythical creatures and extinct species are welcomed, but obviously must remain inside reasonable and MORTAL bounds. On one other note, the cometary role is off limits to players for the time being. If I collect enough interest and this roleplay progresses well, his character will become available and I will probably choose a worthy player if he or she is interested in the part.
So, place your vote and throw feedback at me. There are deeper details to this plot than I have included here, and upon request I will provide those. For now, I want players to have a say so in what is actually happening here, as it should be.
