I. CUM LAUDE dark academia. wanted: 2-3 characters. II. SECOND STAR wanted: 1 female character and 2-4 male characters. III. APEX PREDATOR girlhood gothic. wanted: 2-3 female characters. ⸻⸻⸻ This is incredibly lgbt friendly. In fact, I'm pretty sure it's lgbt necessary! Yay! With the exception of APEX PREDATOR, which can be totally full of lesbians, I think that most characters should probably be bisexual or pansexual. Trans characters are welcome, of course. Diversity's so encouraged. My favorite characters to play are of color, so I'd love, love, love to write and interact with lots of those. I'd prefer no racism or race play. All characters are over eighteen years old. No underage sexual content outside of backstory, please. There's no GM or anything. We're gonna all come up with this (the lore, worldbuilding, npcs, etc) together. I think it'll give everyone more creative freedom and junk. It should be doable since the groups will have six roleplayers at most. I might guide it a bit, if I need to, but we'll play it by ear. I'm totally open to doing more than one of these ideas at a time. Unless, that would be too much of a work load for us. I dunno. I figure one idea'll come out with more interest than the others, but who knows? It'll probably be safest to focus on the idea with the most interest and then open up the others if there's enough time and interest. ⸻⸻⸻ They speak dead languages and collect dead bodies. They trade sharp banter over old books and trade old souls over wine glasses. Secret Societies, blood oaths, and arcane knowledge are the ties that bind them together, and seal their fate. (On the fantasy scale, this can be super magical and Magicians-esque or totally rooted in the mundane.) the beginning It's all in the past. That's who they were then and they tell themselves they've changed. They're lying, but they do it so well. Can their lies save them when a resentful spectre resurrects old sins? the end First blood is spilled in the brightest and prettiest clearing in the forest that cradles their conservatory. The moonlight wanes and dances along the expanding puddle and finally, they realize, the terrible revelry within them hasn't died with their late friend. shakespearean dynamics Othello: Cassio considers himself the protector of Desdemona, who is torn between the affections of the untouchable Iago and the more honorable Othello. Drama grows towards Iago like flowers to the sun, like the other three to Iago. Hamlet: Hamlet's obsession with ( you decide ) is almost as large as his obsession with his sister, Ophelia. he competes for her attention with Laertes, both of whom see the other as inferior. suggested disciplines Law students who collect loop holes and plan ways to get away with murder for fun. Medical and biology students whose research pushes outside the bounds of ethics as they begin to look to live subjects. Classicists who realize that the real gods demand blood. Art historians who design the perfect heists and know that the destruction of art is art too, that destruction itself is art too. suggested settings and etc Universities, liberal arts colleges. Co-educational or single sex. All boys college where all our characters are men, all boys college where my character is the groundskeeper's daughter and always around, etc. Museums and libraries; cities rich with culture. Undergraduate students, graduate students, professors, museum curators, archaeologists, etc. inspired by OTHELLO, THE SECRET HISTORY, PARFUM. Feral and brutal. This is youth at its finest. A family of misfits gathered together and discovered by an enigmatic and capricious young man. For his edification, his amusement, or who knows what else? deus ex machina science fiction / cyberpunk. It all feels so real, this fever dream world that PETER PAN has created, built with numbers and clever hands. children of chaos Some hogs might be stolen and a few jackets might be a size or two too big, but they're too large and thunderous for the boots they fill. These roads can barely contain them. suggested settings and etc Scorched earth and dead worlds. Wastelands; post apocalyptic, urban, vicious. Runaways, petty crooks looking to go bigger, a found family. PETER PAN. hands that shed innocent blood. controlling, apathetic. honor before reason, let's get dangerous, sociopathic hero. SLIGHTLY. haughty eyes. arrogant, obsessive. genius bruiser, jerk with a heart of gold, know it all. TINKER BELL. a heart that devises wicked schemes. jealous, spiteful. ambiguous innocence, narcissist, unknown rival. WENDY DARLING. a lying tongue. unscrupulous, overwhelmed. damsel in distress, silk hiding steel, the storyteller. taken. TWIN ONE. feet that are quick to rush into evil. hedonistic, manipulative. class clown, plucky comic relief, obfuscating stupidity. TWIN TWO. drowsiness clothes them in rags. impulsive, indolent. fearless fool, butt monkey, hidden depths. inspired by PETER PAN, THE LOST BOYS, THE ROWDY THREE. There's something soft inside them. It's rotting. They ignore it. Too divine and capricious to be touched by dirty hands, to sink down into the banal distractions of their lessers. Mid terms, summer jobs. That's what lackies and daddies are for. elegant savagery Someone's crossed them. Big mistake. The last one they'll ever make. girls' school The new girls are tender. The old ones sadistic. An ascetic finishing school that they're desperate to escape from. A secluded bubble that allows no boys until one steps in, until they realize that she's not a boy at all. suggested settings and etc Elite universities and sororities, all girls colleges, exclusive clubs and societies, cosmopolitan cities. Students, sorority sisters, socialites, celebrities, etc. A glittery ring of glamorous villainesses. inspired by THE PLASTICS, THE HEATHERS, THE CHANELS.

Something to do with the too smart for anyone's good intellectuals in CUM LAUDE and trying to capture gods, become gods, just Icarian catastrophe. ETC.
