Hey, fellow roleplayers!

I'm a stranger from a faraway land looking for a new place to live out the thrills of adventuring with others after my home got destroyed! Careful though, I know not of the customs here, so have patience!

In all seriousness, I recently discovered rprepository a few days ago and have been snooping for a while. Currently, I am seeking people interested in a Silent Hill RP, since survival/tragic horror is my obsession again for, what? The seventeenth time? Anyhow, although a roleplay centered in the Silent Hill universe would be preferable, I'm not afraid to try a hand at a completely original survival/tragic horror roleplay, OCs and everything.

Though, I'm kinda picky about my survival/tragic horror.
[*]Psychological horror and stories that dig to the darkest parts of humanity are my cups of tea.[/*]
[*]I'm not huge on movies that feature a big supernatural monster causing all the mayhem. I feel those lack the depth I desire unless they're not so much the focus on the narrative but rather serve as metaphors for different concepts. Refer to Silent Hill.[/*]
[*]Let the characters be the monsters.[/*]
[*]Each character should have a motivation embracing their darkness. The more tragic, the better.[/*]
[*]Isolation. Literal darkness. Separation. Tragedy. Yes.[/*]

This is really just me trying to fill a hole for some really deep story-telling. If you're not afraid to tackle some unsettling concepts about the human condition, let's cook something up! I don't mind romance and companionship built on trying to distract from guilt/pain/suffering/fear. either. Let's keep it story-driven, though, yeah?

I'm always open to different takes and I just want to work on crafting powerful narratives as I work to better myself in a genre I've only ever admired. Post length can vary, though I'd prefer a bit of well-kept description following dialogue?

Also, again, I'm new to the workings of this site, so bear with me!

Any takers? Let's talk!

Details: Freeform, adjustable length posts, long-term RP partner preferred.

The name made me think of the Sonic.Exe animation that had a Silent Hill Zone in it.

Really? Nifty.

This character is a unique fantasy character I have created for an original story revolving around her childhood. Very demonic stuff really. Although I am sure you recognize the picture.

Originally when I first created her I wanted a similar feel to Alessa Gillespie, only with her own demons and story. At this point only the picture is the same, and I'm not really sure if i draw the comparisons between the two young girls because I know one was my inspiration for the other, or if there is actually some lingering similarities between the two (behold the human condition)

I will be honest, there are some dark roads I would not want to walk down (particularly with a character who is an 8 year old girl) but I would definately have an interest in putting her (or another) character in a Silent Hill setting. (I'm guessing a different more vulnerable character but who knows)

If I haven't scared you off with my alleged 'will nots' then feel free to PM me, we can discuss which darkness might work for the both of us.

(P.S. I really only have seen the movies, mostly the first one as the second one kind of flopped)

That's alright and I get that there is a thing as too dark for some people. I love character drama and backstories and stuff like that, so I think you're good there. I'll send a message here in a moment!

It's been a while, so I'm bumping this. I'm still available for literate horror style RPs as described above!
Hi

Honestly the idea of such a roleplay had me interested so much that i made an account here just to reply to your thread.
Since I'm new to this site, can you just tell me where the RP would be happening, in this thread or elsewhere ?

Also I've always wanted to make a Silent Hill esque villain that's kinda tragic

Hey, Gunblade! No worries! I haven't been around here for very long, either. I'll send you a PM in a little bit so we can start talking about it and see what we can get working. I'm honestly flattered you went to all the trouble to make an account.

Hang tight and I'll send a message to your profile inbox.

0-0 Why hello. I love delving into my dark side whenever I can, so may I please slither into this lovely idea? :D I haven't done anything horror related or even anything depressing ever on RPR and almost for three years outside of it! D: Anyways, I hope I can join this beautiful RP idea ^-^
I've watched both the movies and know some of the game lore, but not too much sadly. If you really want to have it centered in the Silent Hill universe then I can definitely search more of the lore/setting/metaphors of the monsters and all that jazz. >-< Not entirely sure what else to put here so I suppose that's all for now folks! ^~^

Welcome! That's alright. A love of good, old fashioned horror mixed with a healthy dose of tragedy is all you really need to get by. Similarily, I'll work on getting a PM to you, too. It might happen in a few hours since I need some sleep.
