July EMP Meme

ENABLEMEPLZ

meme goes up on the last Saturday of every month

FOR GAME ADS:

Put an ad up with the characters / crew / pairings / fetish you want for your game under the correct game header. This meme is primarily going to be focused on DWRP games but IJ and LJ games are allowed.

PLEASE NOTE A RULE CHANGE HERE. ABSOLUTELY NO obnoxious coding (no font size > size 4 or 3 "big" tags, no oversized banners (they must be 250px in height or less), no blinking text, no obnoxious table html that doesn't collapse easily, no sparklies, no large pictures). Use all the colors you like, but please remember 3 "big" tags is the limit and that's only for headers or title text rather than for all the text in an ad.

FOR GAME QUESTIONS:

RPers interested in a game can create a header for the game and ask questions about that game that aren't easy to find on faqs, such as the actual pace vs. what's listed/what kind of plots are run/if the game leans more towards plotty or slice of life/if a game leans more towards network or logs, etc. Both anon questions and anon answers are welcome in this section just like in the rest of the meme.

This thread is not for speaking about wank or drama in a game. There are anoncomms that exist for that. This thread is specifically for general questions about a game that rpers want to get perspective on from players already in the game. Answers can be slightly negative (such as saying app response is slow or that the plots are repetitive or similar things) but this should at least be worded politely. Unnecessary vitriol, any mention of personal drama or wank, or mod teams/individual mods/players being singled out, will be either frozen or screened (based on what seems right based on the content).

FOR CHARACTER ADS:

Put up an ad about the characters you are offering. For PSL ads, there is a separate subthread but for character ads for games, post directly to the meme post. Others will comment to you with the games/casts they want you to join.

There is a "Find a Castmate" section, where you can talk about a cast you play in at a game, and try to lure people to join it. Not all games post to the meme or have a "wanted" section, so players that want to tempt people to their cast on their own can use this section for it. Please format this the same as the PSL section, where you post your character's canons in your subject. For the actual text of the ad you must use the "Find a Castmate" form provided at the bottom of this post so that these ads don't get huge. When listing who's currently in a cast, please do this in sentence form (with commas) rather than in list form.

There is a "Find Crosscanon" section, where you can talk about a character you play and and desired crosscanon for that character. Please make sure this is not too generalized a search, because just wanting general crosscanon can be accomplished with the other sections of the meme. This is for specific characters or character types you're looking for. In the subject, please list the "Looking for [canon you're looking for]" rather than your character's canon. If looking for a character type, list the character type in as few words as possible. Do not make the subject huge or I'll screen your comment. For the actual text of the ad you must use the "Find Crosscanon" form provided at the bottom of this post so that these ads don't get huge. This section is only for game crosscanon as in the psl section people can list their preferences.

Examples of crosscanon you can search for: You play The Flash from DC Comics and your dream CR is fellow speedster Quicksilver from Marvel. Or you might play a witch and want cr with other witches in general. Or maybe you play a good character messed up by evil parents and want to play against a villain character you know has evil parents, because you know it'd lead to some interesting negative CR.

ABSOLUTELY NO obnoxious coding, with the same rules as the Game Ads Section above.

If you're recommending a game to someone, try to match your suggestion to their needs. It's okay if part of your game rec is copy-pasted (such as what the game's about), but at least some part of the rec must be personalized to their ad. Try not to recommend the same game to every single ad, either. Ad spam that isn't individualized in some way will also be frozen or screened. Keep in mind this needs to be more specific than "this game has easy AC like you're asking for but meets none of your other requirements." Make sure you're advertising games that might click with that specific character, where a few elements fit what they're looking for. You should be thinking about the story reasons of how the character might click with the game.

IN GENERAL:

Don't be a dick. This isn't one of the anoncomms, so any snide comments or unnecessary commentary on the RP plans of others will be frozen or screened.

Important note: IP logging has turned on due to multiple instances past and present of problem players trying to return to the dwrp community via emp after being banned other places, so I'll be IP logging from now on, and will compare notes with the rpa and wg mods (as well as game mods) where appropriate if it seems like someone that has been mass banned. I will not pay attention to IPs otherwise. I don't care what people like playing or who's who. So please feel comfortable to keep doing your thing, anon or otherwise. The knowledge will only be used for really egregious problem cases.

Tramitem

It starts with an Event. You’re going about your average day – work, school, binge-watching your favorite show – when you get a flash, a snippet of another life. It feels like you’re completely transported into this other life. You relive this memory. It feels as rich and vibrant as any of your memories from here on Earth.

In truth, that brief scene you just lived out, it was one your memories from another life – only you didn’t go to it, it came to you, here on Earth.

Earth is the fulcrum between an infinite number of alternate universes. The barriers that keep the universes separate are thin here – so thin, in fact, that sometimes they break. The contents of one universe will bleed over into ours, wreaking havoc, causing mayhem, generally messing things about. They are the thinnest in that metropolitan area we know as New York City, for reasons no one knows. Why haven’t you heard about any of this?

The Bureau of Interdimensional Activity – The Bureau, or IBA, take your pick – has been keeping the truth under wraps. Haven't heard of The Bureau? Good, that means they're doing their job.

But things have changed beyond The Bureau’s control.

Continue Reading...


Tramitem is a panfandom, slice-of-life, jamjar RPG that will include mod- and player-driven plots, blending fandom realities with the game setting. It will explore fantasy, horror, sci-fi, and adventure elements. Characters begin the game as average Earth citizens and then over time regain their canon memories. How they interact with the setting and plot will determine the pace of the game.

Applications are considered every Saturday. The next date applications will be considered is August 1.

The Revival Project | SciFi Survival/Exploration

[personal profile] trpmods 2020-07-26 02:58 am (UTC)(link)

THE REVIVAL PROJECT


premise | game details/faq | reserves
test drive meme



The show must go on…

The Drift Fleet was renowned across the galaxy as the intergalactic reality show to follow. For centuries people have been taken away from their homes, pulled from multiple universes and from multiple times, and watched like a bug under glass for the amusement of faceless aliens. But what was entertainment for some was hope to another - for one race desperately needing help, The Drift Fleet was an answered prayer. For you it will be the start of a whole new adventure.

Welcome to Agra 10.

Where is this planet? Well, no one is quite sure of that, yet. When you arrive, you encounter a glowing orb that harmlessly downloads information directly into your mind. What you learn from it is this:

This planet is now home for you. Centuries have passed since anyone has been able to live here, though. Agra 10 is a dying world thanks to inexplicable and debilitating energy storms that have destroyed everything in their paths, including the Agrii people. Once, this proud race of millions had a thriving world full of advanced and sophisticated technology. The storms cut that number down to hundreds, huddled together in the heart of their capital, Temba.

That is where you are now.

The Agrii are now gone and Temba is the most intact area left (which says a lot about the rest of the planet). The orb is a Data Point left by the departing aliens to tell their story. But how did you get here? Why are you here? What are you supposed to be doing?

That is all for you to discover. The Agrii’s hope and your own survival is now in your hands. This isn’t a show anymore. It’s not a game.

It’s a Revival.

No, but really. What is this game?
The Revival Project is a jamjar game that picks up after The Drift Fleet concludes. While it is a spin-off game, it is only loosely connected to the plot there and anyone can join regardless of their presence in The Drift Fleet. NO prior knowledge of The Drift Fleet is necessary to play.

From what you’ve discovered so far, your character has been brought to Agra 10, a destroyed planet that has been abandoned for centuries. You will soon learn that your mission here is to rebuild the capital city and the rest of this once-proud world. The Agrii, who remain off-world, have found that outsiders are somehow partially immune to the energy storms that massacred their population. Because of this, they will continue to find the best helpers from every universe to bring here. Lucky you are among those chosen.

In addition to rebuilding the planet, there is another task you must undertake. After all of the chaos that has splintered them for decades, the Agrii no longer fully understand what it means to be part of a community. Watching The Drift Fleet was the only lesson they had to help them relearn how to function as a cohesive society once more. So while you work together and even (eventually) travel to distant worlds, know that you have fans watching and learning from your every move. And don’t be surprised if they even reach out (although their English leaves much to be desired).

TRP is structured as a slice-of-life, adventure, and survival game where you have the opportunity to pick whichever of those elements you wish and avoid those that you do not. Whichever path your character travels here is entirely up to you.

As the game progresses, events will uncover larger and perhaps surprising truths about your new home and the race that brought you here. Not all is what it seems. There will be plenty of opportunity to take advantage of the setting; how you do so is yours to decide.

So, as the Agrii would say: Whale Comb, he rows!

Welcome to The Revival Project!

Redshift ▼ A CRAU-focused survival horror exploration game. ▼ Apps and Reserves Open.

[personal profile] modblob 2020-07-26 03:03 am (UTC)(link)



Redshift.

Your cell phone dropped a call. Your email bounced. A payment didn't go through. Your radio gets fuzzy. Somewhere along the way, lines got crossed, and crucial information vanished into the ether. What if the same thing could happen to you?

No one knows the how or why of who ends up in the colony of Anchor. No one knows to which universe the planet it's stationed on originally belonged. It is just as out of place as you. Stuck in the same universal lost and found as everything else that disappears from one universe or another without a trace. All anyone really knows is that while the space around the planet, and the people on it, may blip in and out of existence, the planet itself remains the same. Tethered to the unknown. Is Anchor the center of the multiverse, or is it the cosmic junk heap? When it sucks people, places, and things in, can it spit them back out, or do they simply cease to exist on the other side?

Was your signal lost, or was your connection purposefully intercepted?

Part colony, part research facility, Anchor was built by those who came before you. The disappeared. Maybe they found their way home - or maybe they didn’t.

Maybe you'll survive long enough to find out.


REDSHIFT is a pan-fandom CRAU-focused survival game with elements of horror, set on an unnamed planet that exists in the dead space between universes. Player-driven and exploration focused, the colony of Anchor's facilities and story can be unlocked piece by piece through character actions.

Given the focus on CRAU, it's possible to find multiple versions of a single character in-game. Creatures, places, and things from other universes may also make appearances, temporary or permanent, by plot or player suggestion. The way things go is largely up to you.

Daybreak Academy 🏰 A Supernatural School AU Game | APPLICATIONS AND RESERVES ALWAYS OPEN

[personal profile] thewatchers 2020-07-26 03:04 am (UTC)(link)



The old woman is small, frail, her frame slender and heavy with age and yet unbowed by its weight. Her eyes are milky white, eyes that have never beheld the merest glimpse of earth and its inhabitants, and yet they are sharp, as if they see things that should not be seen. Her voice is querulous, but cuts through the silence like a blade.

    "My eyes see nothing. But my eye. My eye sees everything. And I see that we are nearly out of time."

    "Night is falling. The people out in their cement cities don't see it, not yet. The days wane and the nights grow longer. The mists of the Outlands already befoul this planet. Soon, there shall be nothing but darkness. Darkness... and you."

    "You, dear children, are Candles. Alone, you are weak, sputtering glimpses of light in an overwhelming darkness, soon to be snuffed out. But together, perhaps you can be more. The smallest spark can become a raging inferno, and that is what you must become if you, if we, are to survive the coming night. Here is where we shall temper that which burns inside you. We shall tend your callow flame that it might become a roaring blaze. Together, your Flames will cut through the night and sing to the heavens, voices raised in defiance that we shall not go quietly into the night. That we will survive. That we will remain."

    "There is little time left, my children. Temper your flames, grow and become the inferno that will sweep across this land. Mankind's days wane with the sun. Only by your light will it survive the darkness."

    Daybreak Academy is a panfandom AU battle school roleplay following the students and teachers of the titular Academy. Ostensibly a rich private school nestled in the French alps, Daybreak is in truth a school for Candles, people who have exhibited growing supernatural abilities, and a collection of misfits who have sought refuge from outside threats or been handed into the Academy’s care. Here, all students are trained to combat the Nightfall, a prophesied time in which the sun will be blotted from the sky and dread monsters of the Outlands will once again roam it, bringing about the end of humanity.

    As the darkness encroaches ever further and powerful entities threaten the fragile peace on Earth and the Outlands alike, Daybreak’s students and staff must train and fight diligently to protect the innocent and prepare. As Nightfall draws ever closer, both new threats and new allies appear; who among you will rise to face the potential end of the world?

NEW YORK BY NIGHT

[personal profile] thatrangerchick 2020-07-26 10:17 pm (UTC)(link)

a world of darkness...

A delinquent vampire took you in a filthy bathroom at a rave, the music pounding as your young sire panicked after a feeding gone wrong. He gave you some of his Blood, and you collapsed in the ecstatic agony of the Embrace. You come to an hour later and stagger into the night a vampire, with no idea of what’s going on.

How do you connect with the rest of the World of Darkness?

It’s not easy. The Masquerade means that it’s hard for vampires to find each other, especially in big cities. You don’t know the Traditions, and you broke the Prince’s law before you even knew there was a Prince.

When you finally find your way to Elysium, you discover that ignorance is no excuse in the courts of the immortals. Authorities far beyond the ken of mortals can sentence you to death – to the true death, this time.

But maybe you get to live. What’s the shape of the world you enter? What’s happening in the world of vampires?

Will you survive:

NEW YORK BY NIGHT
nybynight is based on Vampire: The Masquerade and is a Camarilla focused chronicle with Anarch Movement undertones focusing on the uses of power, the dead hand of the past, and the questions of safety and duty versus honor and freedom as the Second Inquisition pushes in upon them.

No previous knowledge is needed to play.

HAPPY HEARTS

[personal profile] happyheartsstaff 2020-07-26 10:28 pm (UTC)(link)


"My grandmother was a fool. Cruelty, fear, degradation — these are no ways to get what you want. In fact, in order to get what one wants, one must first give what others need. So I give to you, Wonderland. I return to you those precious pearls stolen from us so many years ago. All that remains to ask is...

What will you give me in return?
"

You wake up in a padded box. It rocks, gently, as though suspended in mid-air. For a moment, you are beatifically calm. You don't know how you got here, or why, but that isn't really all that important. You don't need to know where you are. You're just... here. And here is a wonderful place to be.

But there is a niggling suspicion growing in the back of your mind. A suspicion that here is not somewhere you wanted to be. That it is not where you're supposed to be. You remember... a white rabbit (or was it a man)? A mirror? Before you can worry too much, the box jolts, and then settles, and after a long moment the walls fall from around you to reveal —

A casino?

"Welcome to the Happy Hearts Hotel and Casino," says a passing server. "We're so pleased you could join us!"

Your memory slowly returns to you, and by the time you remember who you are, you've managed to explore a little. There's no way out. There's no way in. No one will tell you why you're here, or where here is, or how you got this strange green mark on your arm. It's frustrating. Terrifying. Uncomfortable. And for god's sake, where are your shoes?

Many floors beneath you, red liquid fills a beaker, and the Walrus smiles.



HAPPY HEARTS is a panfandom community-based roleplaying game themed around SyFy's 2009 Alice miniseries. It centers around emotional experiences, some good old-fashioned detective work, and rebellion against the forces which have kidnapped characters against their will. Player involvement in plot will largely dictate the course of the game; events will touch on horror, smut, crack, investigation, and game plot, with some slice of life elements.
