I will start by saying this. It does not matter what genre, what world, what time you are from. You fit into this rp.
Known by so many names it's not worth calling it anything other then "the library". A place of knowledge, information, and wisdom. A place filled with treasures of ages long past. Or so the legends go. The truth of this place is far more reaching. The library is inter-dimensional and has an entrance on nearly every world, in every dimension, across every universe. Finding it is not always easy, most are hidden away, deep underground, far below the sea, or hiding amongst the clouds. Some civilizations are based around this odd entrance, sending warriors in to best it, to prove they are warriors, others fear it as the gate to hell, the underworld, the land of the dead, and others further see it as the gate to heaven throwing their dead inside, or the dying, to join the gods or God above.
The rp starts out with our characters entering. Starting on the same floor. The library has rules as all libraries do. A plaque on a pedestal as we enter states the six rules.
Rules:
1) No loud noises. They attract the creatures and monsters inside.
2) Time stands still here. You will not die from hunger, age, or dehydration. You will still get hungry, thirsty, and lose muscle as time goes on if you just do nothing.
3) No backsies. Once you get to a floor there is no turning back, to the outside or the previous floor.
4) Guardians: all floors have a guardian. You may not proceed to the next floor till they are defeated.
5) Each floor is different in some way, be it an advantage or disadvantage to the Guardian, or all around weird. One thing remains constant. There will always be shelves. All end walls of the floor are shelves.
6) Memories of the final floor will be wiped upon exiting. The amount of floors is something decided together, because for all we know we started on the fifth last floor of an ever expanding library. (It expands downward, never up, so no random floor additions.)

Mundane? What's that? Magic permeates every part of the setting. Almost everyone has access to strong magic.
Far future, perhaps galactic teleporters and fast terraforming
The RP is entirely based around combat and nothing else, such as an arena where nothing else happens.
Details: Freeform, adjustable length posts, long-term RP partner preferred.
OOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!
Sounds exciting! I'm not sure WHICH of my characters to use though! Since, you know, they could ALL fit.

Obviously I'm in. I know you were lookin' for Peter but I kiiiiinda really wanna use Becker I dunno. You're the boss, Boss.
Is this based on like, the ovie series called the Library?
Regardless this seems like an interesting idea.

This looks rather interesting. May I join?
I'd love to join as well, if you're still accepting people.
I want to join. I want to very badly. I suggest Elo, but if you think someone else would fit better, let me know. If you're sill accepting... 
May I join also?
Perhaps Robin would have a place here.
This sounds very exciting and I have a very experienced dungeneeror. Though the end may highly upset her, it is a scene that I would love to write. Crow will be from the medieval period (as the modern period is after her goal is completed, and her goal is what will drive her to become interested in exploring the Library). She is a witch who will be very interested in books of past or present witches and this adventure seems to be filled with books. Versatile, driven, and cooperative in the least of senses, Crow is the adventurer for this story!
I just got home... Holy wankerdoodles was not expecting such a result O_O like I am honestly amazed.
As to answer to everyone, everyone is welcome to join. I have never done something like this myself, so I am quite excited to do this.

Akira poofed in, dragging Arianna by the hair. "OOOH, ME! PICK ME!"
Only one question I have: Is this strictly a human RP, or can I play as something else?
Any character you got. Human, alien, animal.
