"Film Major"
So I got this idea from an episode of Doctor Who. It's a tad bit rough around the edges.
It was a completely average day, you were surfing through the internet, liking ridiculous cat memes... Then the wifi shut off. If the situation wasn't already bad, it cut off right as you clicked on this trending video known as "Game Master"
You're clicking on the connection tab searching in vain for your internet service. And just as you're about to give up, a strange service pops up.

You shrug and click on it. Who are you to say no to free wifi, especially after waiting weeks and weeks for this "Game Master" video. Instantly the video blinks back on and begins to buffer. You're ecstatic as the video begins to play, but suddenly your head feels weird and the next minute you've blacked out and entered your living nightmare.
You're an everyday high schooler who's life is beginning to fall apart as the "Game Master" begins to gain more and more control over you, and the Nightmare Zone begins to kill and hurt you progressively each time you participate. Your goal is to find the Game Master and stop the madness before it kills you and the others.
So I haven't decided if I'll have a character in this or be the NPCish mastermind. But the premise is that there's this mystery person who has hacked into your mind after you entered the wifi. At random moments you will black out and enter the Nightmare Zone where you are forced to roam (potentially die) until you complete the task given to you at the beginning of your dream state. While awake the hacker is able to override your mind subtly and make you do certain things.
I will be doing the role of the Game Master so that the air of mystery shall remain, but one of your characters may be chosen to be him in the end. Only I and the person will know.
