Hey! so I'm looking for about 2-3 people for a horror survival rp. The basic premise is this:
a fog settles over the city one day. Not so strange, except that it lingers, and lingers, and lingers. Except that it gets denser and denser as the days go by. So dense you can barely see the other side of the street. Eventually, it blots out even the sun - or whats left of it. The days have been getting shorter and shorter, until there was scarce any day at all. And then, abruptly, communication from the outside world is cut off. Nobody knows how, or why. the internet is gone and the phone lines are dead. People are advised to stay indoors.
Then the monsters start appearing. The city descended into chaos after that.
Amidst the horror, a small band of strangers bands together. To help each other survive, To search for answers, and to, if they're very lucky, maybe reverse whatever this is.


Any characters would have to be human, since this is, for the most part, set in the 'real world,' but other than that there aren't any restrictions. This is a horror rp also, so it's likely to get dark. My general preference as far as literacy goes is 1 to 2 paragraphs, but I'm not super fussy, if you want to go longer or shorter that's fine!

If you're interested or have any questions, please leave a message here, or PM me if that's more comfortable for you.
Magic 30%
Some magic. Few can use it, but most of the players probably won't have it. Magical characters will likely believe that they are all alone.
Technology 50%
Modern
Combat 60%
Combat is woven into the storyline and could come to the forefront if the characters seek it out.

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

Hey, I'm certainly interested!

While most of my characters are demons (because that's the best excuse I could find to give them tails, lol), I could make one human for the purposes of this roleplay!

Sounds fun!

haha, I definitely know that feel, most of MY characters are fairies or angels because I like cool wings.
I'm glad! I will say though, I'm not totally adverse to human characters that are maybe, not entirely 'normal'? when I first conceived of this rp years ago, on another forum, one person was playing a character who had this strange ability - I think it had something to do with fire? -that they didn't really understand, and it became part of the larger mystery. If you wanted to do something like that I wouldn't necessarily be opposed.

Could I keep my trend of giving my characters tails, then, lol? Like, if you've seen Blue Exorcist(Rin's Tail), or Avatar(Na'vi Warriors)...Normally I give my characters each a tail like that. I feel like it makes them much more expressive.

yknow what, if it can be worked in with the plot then sure! maybe it grew at some point after the mist arrived or your character is somehow, unknowingly linked/related to whatevers causing everything. There's plenty of fun plot things we could do with that.

Yeah, perhaps it appeared, like, while he was on a roadtrip near whereever the mist started. So he's kinda used to it by now, but still extremely confused cause its abnormal.

yeah, that sounds good!
I just received a pm from another person who's interested, so now that we have a good group, I'll get my own character done and set up the post!
Epic!
Larry (played anonymously)

I'd be interested, perhaps as one of said monsters?

This looks promising, though potentially full.
Putting in an application anyway, in hope of still getting in.
