This is a planning thread! If you feel like anything should be added/changed, please feel free to post in this thread! Suggestions always welcome! Post if you'd like to join c: Know somebody who might like it? Bring them on in!

midnight # HOTdad lemme know if any of you are interested ^_^;

Introduction Ah, the perfect evening to a perfect cruise has just begun. You sit around with the other voyagers that accompanied you on a fabulous trip around a private island. Miss Aldridge, a welcoming billionaire (and somewhat eccentric,) has even invited you all to a banquet in her island home. The large and adorned table is filled with exquisite, exotic food that you can't even bear to try and put a price on, and everyone seems to have had a great time.

Peeling your eyes away from the mouthwatering food that lays before you, you notice that the room is filled with its fair share of characters. You catch an earful of two individuals near you discussing topics in physics and guess that they hold some intellectual importance within their field. After all, there has to be a reason why Miss Aldridge has brought you all here. You take a peek at the other side of the table and some other scraggly individuals and suddenly have second doubts. There also appear to be some ordinary folks mixed in as well. You shake off the notion that a billionaire would just up and invite random people off the street and figure they all have something unique to offer. Suddenly, a familiar face shows itself at the end of the gleaming table of oh so majestic food.

"Good evening, ladies and gentlemen! I hope you've all fattened yourselves up with this buffet," says the carefree billionaire with a giggle towards the end, "It would be such a waste if you didn't eat all you can."

She sits herself down and joins in on the feast, but nobody goes back to talking just yet. "Some of you I've met in person, some of you I'm meeting for the first time. But, I can guarantee from my employees that you all are great individuals. That's why I've brought you here. No matter how you got here, invitation, contest, or otherwise, I want you all to feel like equals. You all hold the same purpose to me."

"You can probably all tell I've got a lot of money. But money doesn't have movement, emotion, or even thought. Money can buy you almost anything you desire, but it does have its limits. The same goes with animals. And, as time has moved on, I've been feeling well, bored. Thankfully I can always turn to you trusty humans for all things that money and animals lack. I've always been a woman of sport, and what a more complex and intriguing thing to play with than something with intelligence on par with your own? I really do hope you don't disappoint me. Right now you haven't paid a dime for what I've offered you. Think of this as your payment."

A feeling of utter terror filled your body as what you thought was a pleasant human being cruelly winked at the crowd's misfortune.

"Don't worry, it doesn't start now. I'll let you have a good night's sleep. But, come morning, my mansion's doors will open up and you'll be on your own on my island. There's only one way off if you don't want to end up being my hunting trophy, and that's the ferry that I've offered anyone who can outwit me to go back to civilization to. I'd like to think that makes us equal. But~ trips off the island only start after the third day. So, your goal is to stay here 3 days without getting caught by me and getting to the boats. Oh, I feel like we're going to have so much fun! I'll hopefully see you all soon!"

And with that, she giggled one last time, waved in her grotesquely cute manner, and left the dining room.

FAQ and Rules Not only is this a survival RP, but the "players" on this island will have between 3 choices to make at the end of the day in an a,b,c fashion. There will always be one negative outcome from the three. The other two can be positive or neutral. Think carefully about which action to choose.

(ex from the above intro: a. head south towards the thick tree growth, b. head east towards the ferry, c. stay in the mansion)

These choices are kind of like guides to try and deduce where the hunter might want to go next and ensure your survival. However, you don't need to stick to the book. For example, if you picked to go south, you could say "[character] headed south into the tree bush, where [character] immediately tried to find a sharp stick to defend themselves with" (just maybe with fancier writing skills.)

This doesn't have to be 1x1 if you don't want to! See other people taking the same choice? You can try talking and teaming up with them!

Rules:

  • This RP does involve the possibility death. If you get captured, there might be a way out, but please know death is an option.
  • Because death is possible, users can have more than one character, but I would like to limit it at 3. 1 - 2 characters would be ideal.
  • Please keep characters within the human realm of abilities. Mind reading is cool and all, but you can predict everything, or change the weather, or teleport, well, what's the reason you're here?
  • Please stick with the a,b,c, choices. You can write your post around it, but don't suddenly go off onto the beach and you find an abandoned ship and sail off into the sunset.
  • Users will have 3? days (RL time) to post with their a,b,c, choice. This is so the plot can keep going but users who don't play Subeta every day can still keep up without being spoiled on what happens next c: Those who are active can keep posting dialogue, or split their posts daily between their characters if they have more than one.
  • Minimum of 3 sentences per post
  • Any literary level goes! Whether you're new or advanced, please feel free to join us!
  • Character profile will be done when this officially starts up, and possibly a ping group!

Possible Members Next round possibly?

Totally reminds me of The Most Dangerous Game meets D&D. You know I'm in. :D

"Should I do a character profile?" I think that's always helpful :o

Aw fun! You're starting this up at the same time as another RP I do every year, but if it really is as simple as, "This happens, pick A,B,C and write a couple sentences" I don't think it would be difficult to participate.... hmmm....

: As exciting as this is and knowing you and some of the others ( riptide and Ichigo777 for example ) makes this a very intriguing and tempting offer. However, I just committed to Wayward Squirrel 4 ( Ichigo777 and I are on the same team ) and I just don't think I can participate in your event at this time. However, keep me on your list of potential players for next round, I would certainly enjoy the opportunity to give it a try then. Thank you for your offer, I appreciate it very much. You know I always love playing with all my old Subeta, Midnight, Krakatoa and Stranded At The Ball friends.

Yes, I am a role-playing character, but I don’t bite (much.)
