Please read the rules and scenario carefully before posting, otherwise, you will be referred back here to re-read and asked to edit your post.
1. Any type of character is welcome regardless of genre. Writers of all ages and skill levels are welcome to participate.
2. Keep the language friendly for all ages and follow normal guidelines as per RPR rules for public forums regarding content. Actions and dialogue should not exceed PG-13.
3. Violence is okay but whatever happens needs to follow rule 2. If for whatever reason your character decides to get destructive, think Muppets or Looney Toons. Again, PG-13 level with nothing too graphic or gory… keep it fun.
4. This is a somewhat silly roleplay. If you are one who is going to get upset by silly interactions and looking for something serious, please find a different scenario.
5. Read this part carefully- all interactions are independent from other players- There is no “line” or waiting for someone else’s character to finish their scene. It is impossible to keep things in any kind of order without holding other people up since inevitably someone will post and not reply for days or might completely disappear, never to be heard from again (this happens every year without fail). DO NOT WAIT FOR SOMEONE to “take their turn” or stay in any kind of a posting order. Also, unless you’ve arranged ahead of time with another player, you should not join in someone else’s scene. Please start your own in this thread. If you don’t follow this, you’ll be referred back to rule #5 and asked to edit your post accordingly.
6. If you don’t understand the above, not sure how to start or have questions, please PM me. This thread is for IC interactions only. It is not a place for OOC discussion. You do not need to post anything like “Can I join?”. Just write your intro and jump in.
Scenario:
Wherever you are, you’re in need of a ride and need to summon a taxi. The circumstances and location of where your character is leaving and where your destination is are up to you.
Whether using your smart phone, wrist communicator, pay phone or hailing from the curb of a street, you manage to find a cab (it can be a traditional car, spaceship, gondola on a waterway, wagon or anything else that fits the genre or world of your character- just set it up in your intro. I’ll read your character profile, too).
A purple taxicab (a modern car by default unless another vehicle type is appropriate) pulls up in front of you. The rear door on the driver’s side of the car seems to open itself to a plush backseat matching the vehicle’s exterior. In fact, the entire interior of the vehicle is purple as well. As soon as you get in, a figure dressed in all purple sitting in the driver seat flips on the meter and asks, “Where to?”
As he turns around, you realize your driver is a puppet! Two big, oversized unblinking round eyes stare over the seat at you in a rather unsettling way. Your driver has stringy purple hair and a round red nose. He wears a big floppy cowboy hat that matches his rather dapper purple suit and bowtie. The driver stares at you until you give him your destination and pull the door shut.
