In a probably futile attempt to make a comeback onto the forum (because i know have an actually decent computer), i recently got an idea for a horror rp, in which Jubelious Gunthropy (me) and a few of his friends go on a hiking trip, but find an old, supposedly abandoned hotel, although all evidence points to it never even existing before then. But something evil lurks within... large mounds and broken glass litter the outside of the hotel, along with holes atop the mounds, but no one knows where they go.
each group member has a set of skills they can hone to the point where they can use them as weapons instead of survival skills. But, it may make the whole outcome more interesting if the characters are also impaired in some way. Jubelious has psychic abilities, although he is blind, as my example.
RULES:
no spam (i think this should be standard at this point)
No constant 1-upping each other
on that note, all unnecessary, personal fighting is forbidden.
linking is highly recommended if the situation is better described/ experienced/ enhanced visually or audibly.
on THAT note, don't over do it with things such as already "real" villains/ monsters, although allusions, references, and/or the occasional or limited appearance is OK.
characters MUST BE HUMAN, unless someone wants to be an nonspeaking, but "read" (like by psychic abilities, or possible animal connection abilities.
Love interests are recommended to add effect to the drama, although things such as "adult" romance may be over the top.
two people with the same powers is ok, but not as recommended.
Recommendations:
give a REALLY unique name, or a uncommon "normal" name.
A dark past is ok, but remember, every character has problems.
having a tight bond with other characters would be good, although being a pest would also spice things up
Ability Ideas:
Animal communication
magnetic control
electric control
time control (on a extremely small scale)
light production
enhanced senses (with no challenges such as blindness, muteness, etc.)
fire control (only when it is present)
visibility control (again, limited, and temporary invisibility)
these are only IDEAS. you may pick anything, just don't OVERPOWER IT.
Character template:
Name:
Gender:
Age:
Power: (explain if not obvious)
Disability: (explain if not obvious)
Appearence : (links may be used)
Mood: (optional)
Fear rating: (how easily you are scared, again optional)
