Horror RP? - Dr. Briggs - 03-15-2009
Hey fellas, a while ago there was a forum-RP based on all the icons of horror we like so much. However I do believe that one fizzled quite a while ago, and if memory serves, turned into some erotic mumbo-jumbo before dying.
Now, I was wondering if anyone around this forum would want our own horror-RP to make things more lively around here. I'd imagine something concerning those horror villains/heroes who have had their story-arcs fade away with either no conclusion or one that leaves things open (Though new guys would not necessarily be counted out, it would be harder with expected sequels that could change things), in a plot that left open in previous installments (I've thought of something concerning the books in Argento's 3 Mothers trilogy).
What does everyone else think? Would you be interested and if so what sort of things would you want to include?

I'd definitely be interested. I'd like to participate in a slasher one, until I got the hang of things.

It could be done, as long as it could either be made short, or be a real badass slasher that involves the whole town (I wouldn't be that interested in playing an even-more disposable teen for months X) )

[SIZE="3"]As an experienced table top player, I'd be interested to see how it works online. We were playing a zombie game for months. Then, one of our players went goth & moved to FL.

I should say though, forum RPs are generally more story-oriented/less-technical than traditional RPs, I'm not familiar with too much of the technical stuff myself.

Horror RP? - Friday The 13th - 03-15-2009
I'd be interested for sure.
Horror RP? - Dr. Briggs - 03-15-2009
@Friday: Glad you like it. Any ideas/hopes?
@Rosemary: Well most of the forum RPs I've been on have been as simple as semi-moderated round robin stories. The most complicated had incorporated a stats system where you start off with HP and various things do different amounts of damage... If it's gonna be a slasher thing, it could be a bit detrimental/complicated though, considering most attacks traditionally either "kill" or "don't kill"

[SIZE="3"][COLOR="Cyan"]No kidding! If rape's in, I'm not. Too serious to be used to screw with someone. In movies, too often a tool to see some boobs. Death, dismemberent & gore, fine. Sex of any kind, not cool.
Sorry, I always say what I think.[/COLOR][/SIZE]

I think she was just mentioning that to emphasize how extreme she wanted it
. I don't think you have much to worry about.

[SIZE="3"]Sorry. Going by comments about the last time, it turned into a porno. Not interested in a pretend rape porno.[/SIZE]

I would hope we would have more sense.
So what does everyone think of the whole slasher idea, any ideas?
Horror RP? - LokiZee - 03-17-2009
Go for it man. We'll give it a try. Or zombie survival. I'm damn good at that one!
Horror RP? - Friday The 13th - 03-17-2009
What the hell is wrong with RAPE?
Getting wore out and tore out! baby!
Ahwell... Slasher is fine with me!
or a Zombie type RP like Lokizee said.
Horror RP? - Bojangles - 03-17-2009
In movies, rape & sex is fucking awesome. On the internet, it's lame imo. If you even mention that shit one time in a thread, people will start trying to cyber anything that signs on.
Horror RP? - Friday The 13th - 03-17-2009
True true.
I just meant like the big GORY shit!
Like fucked with a knife, type of shit.
Horror RP? - Dr. Briggs - 03-19-2009
So Friday's in, so are Bojangles and Loki, and me of course. Rosemary, how about you if rape is out?
Any ideas for settings/plot? We'll need to think up good characters if we are doing something original.
