Forums » Looking for RP » World of Monsters (closed)

I would like to make and DM an RP. About Monsters (Vampires, Werewolfs. Zombies, ect ect) Trying to live there life's or 'unlife's' In a world dominated by humans.

I have a few ideas for what the main plot could be but I would like to first see if any one is interested in the basic idea first and then talk to them about what types of plots they would like to see before I post any.

Out of curiosity, are you planning to standardize the monsters, that each vampire, lycan, or what have you functions the same?

Anne Rice style vampires and Twighlight style vampires together would just be confusing.

Also, are you looking for just non-human monsters, or are people that do monstrous things acceptable as well?

Why yes I would like to some what standardize each type of monster but that doesn't mean that all vampire and werewolfs will be the exact same. I do intend on allowing some creative wiggle room With out chnaging there fundemtals And while I'm not sure of how I will make each monster function yet. I think I'd like to hear out some of the monsters people even want to play as before pulling out rules for all of them.

And No I am not looking for humans who are evil. Because for one not all of the monsters in this game are meant to be "evil" just misunderstood and troubled In fact that is one of the main points I'd like this game to be about. The sorrow of a vampire or werewolf that doesn't want to hurt any one but there inner "Monster" forces them to. That's not saying that every one playing has to be like that, It's just a neat thought I like.

Are you looking for a group RP or a 1x1?

I have a few characters that would be fun to play. If you would allow I would love to join.

I am looking for a a group RP.

linktheriolu please offer characters and tell me a little about them.

I would like to offer raven. She is a witch who grew up during the Sal witch trials, but a potion has made her stop ageing (if this is a modern rp). She's adjustable if necessary.

Animelover17 I gladly accept Raven in to this RP. However I will need you to answer a few questions.

Could you tell me how her powers work? And what her weakness and "cost" is +any other short comings.

I need all Monsters to have some kind of weakness and cost. For Vampires the main weakness is sun light and there cost is having to drink blood. For were wolf's there main weakness is silver and there cost is nearly uncontrollable rage. I do not know what the weakness and cost of a witch might be?

I hadn't thought about the last two.

For how they work, she can do anything from hand magic to using a couldron, but the weaker the method the weaker the types of spells she can cast. She likes to use a Septer so she can cast any type of spell.

For a weakness, I was thinking setting along the lines of fire? Since she grew up in the Salem witch trials where witches were burned/hanged, it'd make sense that fire would be their weakness.

For a cost, maybe every night on a full moon and a new moon they get a raging bloodless? I'm not so sure about the cost though so I'm open to suggestions.

Ok so you've given me a basic understanding of your magic but. What can the magic do? how powerful is it meant to be? can it do any thing? can you turn a person in to a pumpkin ?

A weakness of fire would be fine.

As for a cost. The cost has to be worth what you get in return, Or it has to fuel what you have. Example A nomral human has the cost of having to eat food and drink water to fuel there body. A Vampire has to take blood/life to keep them self's alive.

You have both magical power and you said you also had some thing that stops you from ageing?

Maybe the Magic is fueled by raw emotion/soul. Witch could have 1 of 2 costs I can think of. 1 maybe you have to be very careful about your emotions at all times other wise you risk losing control. Or 2 maybe maybe casting to powerful a magic will drain your emotions/soul and leave you spiritually drained.

Or Maybe your magic is powered some demonic force in witch case you would have to feed off of the souls of others to gain power.

Or maybe you have a better idea.

As for the not ageing tho, Maybe this potion must be remade ever mouth or year or ever 6 years.

The magic can do anything she wants it to do. However there are limits. She can't control others, she can't bring back the dead, just the basics so she can't godmod. She can casts illusions, control inanimate objects, and control the elements. She can't really shapeshift but she can talk to crows and ravens and control them.

As for the costs, I like the losing control of her emotions results in losing control of her magic. And maybe combining that with the second one, when she loses control of her emotions she loses control of her magic, which ends up using up more powerful spells that she loses control of, which causes her to be emotionally and spiritually drained. On that note, maybe her eyes change color depending on the emotion so that way if she loses control it's easier to tell how she feels and to help her stay in control.


And that'd fine with the ageing thing. It has to be remade every month.

Ok all of that sounds good to me

Yay! So then raven is set! ^-^ so how many more people do we need?

(Mind if I join)

Hello

Sure tell me about your self

Hi do you want to play? if so as what?

I'm intrested as well! I'd like to use Katherine. Her species is one that is a hybrid of a human and a ghost.

Her weaknesses are basically anything that can stop a ghost (salt, for example), but it only hurts her when she is in that form.

Cost is that they need to absorb the energy of another creature to survive. Preferably a human.

She has some traits that can clash with the roleplay, so I'll be fine with editing her for it.

I would be interested.

I would have to think about my characters first though. Sounds interesting.
