Realistic or Modern Survival RP?

[Samuel James Aran]

So I was thinking of how a Survival based RP would be interesting. The idea of the story is that the players are the survivors of a plane crash on a deserted island and have to survive and hope and wait for rescue. Thoughts?

 

[LawOfChaos]

I'd join. However, I think maybe you could add some feature to make it a little different to the normal 'stranded on an island' RPs. That's just a suggestion though, and I'd happily join in either way. (^U^)

 

[Samuel James Aran]

I agree it is a little cliche.

 

[_SweetCandy_]

This sounds cool I'm interested.

 

[Jordan the Humble]

I guess I'd like to try it. But, it'd have to be a little more than deserted ... and perhaps have some ... surprises (crazy natives, aggressive animals).

 

[Samuel James Aran]

I was hoping someone would want 'surprises' -evil hands-

 

[RemainingQuestions]

This does sound interesting! I'm thinking the setting is somewhat similar to The Forest, should that be about right?

 

[Samuel James Aran]

I've never actually played that game O.o I was thinking more like the show LOST

 

[Dominus Regum]

Sounds cool... Count me in

 

[Samuel James Aran]

@LillaIsACat @LawOfChaos @Jordan the Humble You still up for this?

 

[LawOfChaos]

Yup!

 

[Jordan the Humble]

Yep

 

[YareYare]

Y'know what? Typically, it's not my thing. But I'd kinda like to play a more normal character in a bad situation. And by normal, I mean human. Literally and metaphorically, as most of my human characters have been psychopaths, telepathic, telekinetic, drug addicts, adorably innocent... or had other strange quirks. I'm not one for boring characters, but I do get a little tired of that stuff.


Something like this would be nice. And maybe a few unexpected events or something. Honestly, I don't mind if my character is killed. But s/he'll try his/her best to survive. 80%+ of my characters don't like dying anyway.

 

[Samuel James Aran]

Hooray for you branching out -claps happily-

 

[_SweetCandy_]

Yeah I'm still up for it!

 

[YareYare]

Yay for Lilla!

 

[Dominus Regum]

So that would make how many of us?

[QUOTE="Chris James]So that would make how many of us?

[/QUOTE]
A quick count gives seven.

 

[Samuel James Aran]

That seems like enough for now, maybe when we play we'll attract more people.

 

[Samuel James Aran]

So I had an idea that I wanna run by you guys before finishing the character sheet. I was wondering if we should have things like Stats: S.P.E.C.I.A.L. from Fallout would be a good example.

 

[Dominus Regum]

Hmm. the S.P.E.C.I.A.L would be cool. But maybe the L can be left out

 

[Samuel James Aran]

E and L I was thinking of leaving out, no need to put limits on how much people can do in the rp.

 

[_SweetCandy_]

I really like the concept of stats it makes it more of a team effort being that one may "specialize" in acertain category. As well as character diversity.

 

[Samuel James Aran]

I'll add in stats then.

 

[Samuel James Aran]

Alright the RP is up link
