This is a Fox 10 news Urgent Report!

Another victim of the recent rash of Serial Murders has been found today in the dumpster behind a McDonalds parking lot at 92nd Street and Shea Blvd, wrapped in plastic trash bags. A worker found the body after complaining about a rotting smell that was different than normal. Police have yet to identify the body, but have declared that it may be connected to the two other victims found earlier last week. More information will be released pending an autopsy by police specialist. We return you to Erika Summers with weight loss tips...

World of Darkness: Slasher

I wish to run a Slasher game in the World of Darkness setting, and I am recruiting four to six players, preferably four. The reason for such a small player group is that in Slasher, the Players are Serial Killers and Mass Murderers. In order to maintain a fluid setting, and also because it is my first system game run on Elliquiy, I would prefer fewer numbers of players. Experience in World of Darkness is a must for players, and knowledge of Slasher is an added bonus. I will be cherry-picking my player group, looking for well detailed, balanced characters that fit within the plot of the game. The game WILL be an EX game, as death, dismemberment, torture, potential rape, and other demented acts will be a part of this game. I intend for the game system to be fairly hidden, past character creation, rolling for actions I deem necessary to roll on behind the scenes, and the story will unfold how the dice roll. If a player feels that I am railroading or to check in on the rolls, I will be using the Invisible Castle dice roller, with the campaign tag being "E WoD Slasher". Character sheets should be on Myth-Weavers, using standard Slasher character creation, plus 25 XP to spend after initial creation, and linked to here in the following format:

Trappings:

Background should include why the character has turned to a life of murder, and Trappings is a detailed description of the killer's Modus Operandi, thier signature for killing, as you will.

Setting

The game will take place in Scottsdale, Arizona, with locations easily searchable via Google Maps, should you want to really look up places. Accepted characters will recieve via PM an invitation to The Hunt Club. The Club is an exclusive organization, hidden within society, that holds yearly The Great Game... hunting humans.

If you have any questions, please ask here. :)

This is my two cents. I am placing it here.    Most definitely interested. 
For want of something better to say... sometimes nothing is best.

I could run the game with only a party of three... I was hoping for more interest however. All I require are the characters.... >.>

Name: Andy Reynolds

Age: 22

Character Sheet: http://www.myth-weavers.com/sheetview.php?sheetid=233466

Background:
Andy was born in Home, West Virginia with what doctors at the time assumed was Harlequin's Disease. Maybe it was, who knows? Told that he had not long to live the Reynolds ignored the doctors advise and took him home anyway. What the doctors didn't realize was that whatever Andy had, if it was Harlequin's Disease it was an oddly bilaterally symmetric and less extreme version. Instead of his skin cracking apart and killing him he just developed hard calluses allover his body, which acted as a sort of natural body armor.

Locked away in the caves underneath his cabin home, the Reynolds believed that Andy's disease was god's punishment for pre-marital sex and never let him out. They taught him to read, brought him food, even the occasional book- but that's all. The caves were his world for a very long time- so long that he grew to be too large to leave the entrance. A few years ago however a tree feel into the cabin, killing his parents and creating a new entrance large enough for Andy. Ever since then "The Armadillo Man" has wondered throughout the West Virginia hills and caves. His mutant brain not entirely working right in the first place coupled with the extreme levels in abuse have warped Andy needless to say. Andy received his invitation to the club in the mail and has been hitchhiking across the country since.

Description: Andy is large and powerfully built at 6'7" and about 200 pounds of muscle. Born with a less lethal variation of Harlequin's Disease plates like the armor of an armadillo have formed unusually bilaterally symmetrical patterns over his body. Normal clothing usually consists of work boots, overalls, and nothing else though he does have more when he wants to cover his face.

Trappings: Andy's MO is very chaotic, and driven by his base instincts. A cannibal, he eats people mostly because he's hungry and he doesn't see any reason to not consider them a food source- and he thinks humans taste the best. Admittedly horny, he does have a heightened urge to mate. Unfortunately, given his looks Andy has given up on the idea of consent and just kidnaps a woman who looks healthy enough to have his baby and rapes her- killing anyone who gets in the way.
Andy's murders usually show no rhyme nor reason and have no real preference when it comes to age, race, or gender- if he's hungry and you're on one of the highways near Home, West Virginia you may never be seen again. The only exception to this rule seems to be attractive women between the ages of 16 to 35, which he'll brutally rape but might let them go after words. Many times however he then takes them back toward his cavern home to keep and repeatedly rape until he's sure they are pregnant- then he may let them go, or he may eat them depending on his mood or how likely it is he thinks they can and will lead people back to his caves at the time.

Thanks, Villian. Please change Seed however. I told you no to that in PMs.

Villian, I forgot to ask... did you account for derangements for humanity loss?

TheVillain

Ah, don't think I did. But being a hillbilly he's probably nuttier then anything the system could produce anyway. Just sayin'. ;P

Sorry, thats my bad... I didnt doublecheck my rules before posting that. Im still thinking regular WoD where you're supposed to be the Good Guys... Or at least, the Not So Evil Guys. XD

Opheliac

Im shelving this idea due to lack of serious interest. I'll try again at a later date.
