The one who made Aerth
You know sometimes BlueBay city is beautiful,
on those occasional clear nights when the pollution is clear enough to see the stars, it's almost like they mirror the lights of the city. But this is a place that chews people up and spits them to the curb dead or worse. It's a city with every sort of opportunity, good times or danger. BlueBay is best described as a massive man made Venus fly trap or if New York was addicted to amphetamines and LSD for decades and just learned to cope.
It looks unique and interesting from a distance, but once your close enough it wants nothing more than to consume you.
(Pretend the left side of this map is connected to America and that this isnt a cluster of islands in the ocean somewhere)
Some trivia might clear it up for you...
Despite BlueBay having over 70,000 active police officers, despite BlueBay being home to Hero inc who employ over one hundred and twenty six superheroes (tours of Star island are available for the low price of $500 a head)
The underbelly of the city outnumber the forces of law three to one.
BlueBay is home to more than twenty four gangs, some large some smaller... But all of them criminals, thugs, and gangbangers, thats without mentioning those with powers. Super villians... it seems every gang has or has had a super or two in it at some time. Almost as if the bright lights and opportunities attracts the dangerous sort like moths to a flame.
But it's those dangerous moths who are the star of this story...
People on the wrong side of the law from bad choices or circumstances,
The sort of person who will do anything for money or a sick thrill,
A person confident they will survive the night and live to see tomorrow...
Which brought you to Aces scrap heap to compete in a a bit of modern day bloodsport.
A event held by the Lombari family on neutral ground allowing anyone to compete or watch so long as they can pay the neccesary fees. You have paid five grand to buy into a violent game called "king of the hill" problem is you came under the assumption you would be fighting alone only for you to be grouped with four others with the announcement declaring you as the Thrill seekers. Making the final team out of five meaning twenty five people will be fighting to win the cash prize of 125,000 dollars, more than the promised 25 thousand for fighting five others which previously enticed you.
But this is just the origin story, for someway somehow your team wins. Good news quickly turns sour as word spreads and the five winners find themselves being hunted by various gangs. Some want revenge, others want the bounty, but almost all of them think of you as a target they want to strike.
Your only hope of survival now is to work together with that makeshift team, show everyone the five champions are more than five solitary badasses. Maybe make your own gang, take more money from the assholes salty that they lost.
========================
A modern fantasy, I imagine it as something like the warriors mixed with invincible/the boys.
Willing to start the rp with three others and accept more players down the line.
The starting characters will be criminals/ super villians but once the rp picks up a bit I am open for people to take on the roles of superheros, police and important rival gang members.
On that note I'm happy for people to pitch villian/hero ideas...
Gangs etc...
Super powers are a thing in this world but I'll let you know now that some powers I will not accept as some powers I find to OP and i hate having to remind players to tone it down or to stick to what's agreed.
On that note I will most likely deny multiple powers, easy example being Superman would not be accepted in this rp.
Homelander and Omniman would not be accepted. Super speed, time shenanigans, deadpool healing, instant death stares etc etc.
The posting requirements is two paragraphs,
Or more if you want.
I may ask to see a example of your writing, this is half because I'm drunk with power and very much a picky asshole. The other half is because during my time on this site I've read a number of posts that consist of only three sentences that summarise a whole situation poorly.
If you wish to join!
Post here with two suggestions...
1) a enemy gang. a name theme and a small explanation.
For example...
Murder Circus is a gang of psychotics and freaks that dress up as clowns. They film their violent crimes and sell the footage or give it to a famous juggalo/Horrorcore rapper Violent Wei. Who is apparently the brother of the Bloody ringmaster
(leader of murder circus)
2) a hero. A name, etc etc
For example...
Soulsword, a man who is able to manifest swords out of energy. Dressed like a pirate this hero fights crime with a swashbuckling style and telekinect ghost blades.
These hero's and gangs may or may not be used, this is just a way of getting people invested and showing me a slice of your creativity/writing style.
