I have an idea for a RP, dont shoot it down yet, just start replying if you want to join.
This game will be modeled after the game Oblivion. Not in gameplay, but in the geography... for the most part. If you have a character with a hometown not in oblivion, i can work it into the game. As it stands, this game starts with a roaming madman named Kenny, a lunatic that knows how to use a sword. His mission: save the town from the storm of flaming kittens that (at least he believes) threaten his town. he can meet up with other characters in any city he should come across, or on the road, or anywhere. im open to everything. the main thing i want is for this to be fun. but id like to keep it to a max of 4-5 players. thanks!";

You start the RP and I'll join in.

San Callucia, a peaceful town that could fit the stereotype as the place to settle down and raise a family. Quaint shops dot the town and everyone seems to know everyone. And everyone knows Kenny. Kenny is the village Lunatic. People whisper behind his back about anything and everything concerning him. They say things such as "When is that old nutter gonna leave?" or "That 'home' of his is a blight to thins town, makes us all look bad it does." And Kenny is just blissfully unaware of those comments. For he has bigger problems to deal with than town gossip. You see, he had a prophecy one day, a prophecy that spelled doom for his hometown. A storm of flaming cats are going to destroy the town he calls home. But try as he may to warn everyone, his warnings fall upon deaf ears.

"There must be something I can do." He says to a barrel of assorted cheeses. "If they wont listen they will never prepare for the coming peril that is to grip this land! As Lord of the Cheese, it is my duty to protect this town from the feline inferno!" His mind made up, and after several months of prep, he packs his bags (full of a vast quantity of seemingly useless items) and sets off to save his land.

Heading out the south gate of San Callucia, he begins his journey to the land where "Fire Cats Reign Supreme".

Continuing the life of a nomad, Nenao heads east in search for food. Walking through an open plain, there isn't a single form of life, other than herself of course. Not even a stinking rabbit she thinks to herself. Eventually, Nenao comes across a well worn road and decides to head north, in the direction of the town this road leads to. About half a mile later, she notices a lone man walking in her direction. Catching a glimpse of the sword on his back and noticing an odd 'pep' in the way he walks, she judges him as friendly and decides to approach him. At yelling distance, she shouts "Hows the hunting around here cause i haven't seen a damn thing!"

As Kenny walks, all he can think about is how he will be a hero. "Yepp Kenny boy, youre gonna save the day! Just like you saved pappa from the rabid copper coins!" In high spirits, he continues his journey south on the road, which will hopefully lead him straight to the "Fire Cat Land". Half a mile away from the town, he can see a traveler walking towards the town. Hopeing that he can warn this newcomer of the potential dangers that wait for San Callucia, he picks up his pace.

Soon, he can see this traveler, and it instantly drops his spirits. "Oh my cheeses!". This traveler isnt a traveler after all! "GET AWAY FROM MY BELOVED TOWN YOU EMISARRY OF EVIL!" Unsheathing his sword, he prepares to defend his home to the death.

Nenao stops and stares at the guy who she assumes has agression towards cats "Emissary of evil you say, well I admit I'm not the kindest but I was just asking about the hunting here. An answer to that question is all that's needed."

"Oh-ho I bet you'd like to know how the hunt is!" he replise boldly "But I cannot allow the lapdogs of the Fire Cats to claim my home!" Kenny stands his ground and prepares to fight this newcommer.

Nenao glares at the clearly insane man in front of her. "So let me get this right, for asking you about hunting I'm associated with Fire Cats, whatever the hell those are!" She takes out one of her daggers just in case she'll have to defend herself.

A wave of confusion sweeps over Kenny. 'Maybe she's a renegade and is here to help me?' Kenny sheaths his sword. "My apologies my dear lady, kitty, person, thing... It's just, me and my cheese have been preparing for the storm of flamming kittens for a long time now. And since I just happened to come across you, I thought you were with them." Kenny winks twice at her. "A Lord should not act as I have. My you forgive my frabble and help me. And in return, I will show you to a place that is bountiful for a hunter". Kenny bows in a regal manner, and loses his balance, and falls face-first onto the ground.

Nenao puts away her dagger slightly amused by the crazy man falling. "The names Nenao thank you, I don't appreciate being called a thing. I am no different than you." At that point her stomach grumbles. 'I don't usually keep company of such odd people but i need to know where to hunt.' "I'll assist you in your odd crusade I suppose." Nenao says as she approches the man and offers her hand to help him up

"Gracious me!" Kenny extends his hand and lets Nenao help him up. "So indignified of me" he says "And, not to be too rude, but i do not have funny ears or a fuzzy tail, which would make you different than me." He dusts himself off and composes himself. "Kenny, Lord of the Cheese. But you can call me, Lord for now, at least until we become friends." Kenny rummages through his bag and pulls out a block of cheese, a knife, and sits on a nearby rock and starts to carve the cheese.

'Lord of the Cheese, yup this guys crazy' "So... where is this hunting spot of yours? I'm a bit hungry." She says as her stomach grumbles again. "And 'funny ears' and a 'fuzzy tail' mean nothing sure my appearance is different but just like you I breathe and I bleed, I live and like you I will one day die. So I'm no different. And I like my fuzzy tail thank you very much!" She replies hugging her tail.

"In due time my furry friend, in time. A Lord always keeps his word. Thats why they sound the same you know? lORD, wORD. kinda funny isn't?" He continues to carve. "And besides, its going to rain soon. So hunting isn't a good idea right now. Have you ever had to chace a wet boar through the woods?" He throws a few finishing touches on his cheese sculpture and presents it to the neko. "I hope you like mice, especially cheesie mice. Kinda ironic huh? A mouse is made out of cheese, which we all know is a mouse's favorite food. And I shoud know, stupid mouse ate my desk once. And cats eat mice, and mice are a cats favorite food." He starts laughing hystericly. BWAHAHAHAHAH AHAHAHAHAHAHA! "But anyway, i should work on a shelter fit for a Lord, as the rain is on it's way. At least we'll have an advantage over the flaming kittens." Kenny says, to whom, he doesnt know, as he looks at the sky. Which is cloudless and sunny. He rummages through his backpack "And what better material to build my Mini Manor, than seaweed!" He holds his prized buillding material aloft, extreamly thankful that he packed his precious seaweed.

Nenao looked at the cheese mouse 'I guess this will have to do' Slowly eating the cheese she looks at the sky "Are you sure it's going to rain? There are no clouds in sight, and you know rain does come from clouds." she says matter-of-factly. "And seaweed, shouldn't you make a shelter out of something more convienient and reliable. I mean how do you expect a seaweed shelter to hold up against anything?"

"You don't go outside much do you?" he asks Nenao, "Because, clearly, rain is approaching." Before Kenny even finished his sentence, there was a faint rumble in the distance. "Whats wrong with seaweed, surely you know it's the most durable of all resources?" He makes a face as if she should have known this all along. "You find the ninny-muggins and I'll make the Mini-Manor." With that said, he turns around, and starts putting his magic to work. Muttering incantations and doing, what appears to be, a jig, seaweed flows out of his backpack and begins to form a small hut.

*Walks out in the field with all of his bone gear on*

Well let's see what I can hunt today

Working his magic on the "mini manor" Kenny notices a figure walking through a field. "HELLO MY FRIEND!!!!" he hollers "IT WOULD BE BEST FOR YOU TO FIND SHELTER, AS RAIN WILL SOON BE UPON US!" What an odd man, Kenny thinks to himself, walking out in the open knowing rain will soon be here.
