Never seen a bluer sky.
A quickly written backstory
Welcome to the Fargoing penitentiary for dangerous criminals. For crimes you probably are innocent of, you are sentenced to over two-hundred years of jail time, essentially a life sentence. Within a day of your introduction to the facility, you are thrown into an isolated cell in which you will spend most of your day. Don't be afraid- The penitentiary is down to earth, literally. The story goes that some eccentric millionaire hollowed out a ginormous underground space, then stuck a gun to his head and pulled the trigger. Fact or fiction, it seems an obvious fact that escape is impossible. Most inmates are hollow forms of their previous appearance before entering the facility. In fact, one guard wrote about his first time reporting in at Fargoing, describing it as "..When you first enter that daunting gate, it feels as though a crushing weight is set upon your back, threatening to smother any attempts at happiness. By God! I am tempted to pity those who stay in this wretched place.."
Yet despite all the measures to prevent escape, despite the threats and beatings, there is an escape from the dismal life you lead. Sleep, warm and inviting, awaits you every night. You find yourself in vivid fairytales, in ages long past, and ages to presumably come. In your dreams, there are no walls to cage you in a prison of fear, and no wardens to offer jeering remarks.
And now, as you continue to explore your dreamy landscape, an entirely different time period each night, you slowly come to a seemingly impossible revelation.
In your dreams, you do not walk alone.

Have I stirred the soup of interest?
( That was awful, I'm sorry. )
There are two periods' that will happen in this roleplay. The first is daytime, where the sun shines cheerily on the. . . desolate landscape? You take the part of an inmate of Fargoing. You will primarily spend the daytime brooding and moping around your, in all likely hood, horribly meager cell. While it's true that you do manage to have some time out of your homely rectangle, such as visiting the poorly stocked library or gym, communication between inmates is not allowed and strictly enforced.
The real flesh of the roleplay will began when everyone drifts away in their tiny bed. ( AKA, nighttime ) Everyone will be situated in a specific dream world- A different time every day. From New York, 1820, to a bizarre reverse world in which the time period is unknown. Perhaps we'll even visit some worlds in which other forum roleplays are situated in! In each fantasy, your appearence changes, with a different employment, dream, and set of beliefs. When I feel the time is fitting, I will change it to daytime again, where everyone will suddenly be transported by to the dreary real world.
But before you go and praise me for such a wonderful idea, I credit my finding of this idea from a person with the username of gohKamikaze. As the 'original' ( I have revised some things. ) roleplay was two years ago, and died out rather quickly, I find it perfectly fine to try and restart something with a similar idea in mind.
Thoughts? Feedback? Horrible idea? Any response is appreciated. Thanks for checking this idea out!
