MRDRHAWK Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 wao much Poly such thread so LAME Anyways, with the apparent recent influx of new RPs (and new RPers) to SF, and the (relative) success of Fate/endeavour so far aka nobody's had to have been killed off yet I feel like it's time to address something that was attempted before but never really got off the ground. Namely, a Persona-style RP. Basic knowledge of Persona is recommended (at the very least, 3 or 4), but not necessarily required to sign up; if you need a brief rundown, I can provide one to you upon request. I don't think everyone in the RP section needs one, so I'll just send you one if you need it. [spoiler=Juuuuuuuuuuuuust in case, super high school level rundown] Japanese high school students facing their own problems in the form of exaggerated doppelgangers of themselves (4 and on multiple occasions in 2), then fighting eldritch-style monsters by summoning deities from their heads. Guns to the temple optional. Weapons recommended. Everything has a tarot motif, and loads of Jungian psychology is involved (at least in 4). Usually some big bad evil deity that you can't actually summon is involved, as is an Earthly avatar who carries things out in their name, unwittingly or otherwise. Also waifus. Lots of waifus. Yukiko worst girl. So, there you go, if you reeeeeeeeeeeeally need more detail, I can send you a more detailed version of the rundown. If I can get the interest for it, I'll set up a full-out signup thread going more into detail about the setting, basic plotline, as well as hopefully formulating a team of Persona-users. Setting the ground rule now, though: For the love of god, don't be throwing around Japanese honorifics left and right. I mean, the occasional one is okay if you know how to work it into your posts without sounding annoying, but please try and avoid it if at all possible. Find a more... er, English substitute, just for convenience's sake.. If you could post the following, it'd be greatly appreciated: Preference (Persona User/Social Link): Opinion on the basic idea: Level of pre-existing knowledge (THIS IS WHERE YOU ASK FOR A RUNDOWN OF PERSONA IN GENERAL IF YOU STILL WANT MORE): Ability to put in time for this: Any other comments? Suggestions? Rear tears about Yukiko being worst girl? Shoot, I'm all ears here: If you can/wanna, that is. \ '3' / Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
