Do note that this is just an early edit and more will come once I have more definite facts laying around. Some things might get changed around completely by the time the actual game thread is up, but for now, take what is presented and base yourself off of that.
I had this idea earlier today. I’m ploying around with the idea of body-swapping. The idea of one’s personality and mind being transferred over to another person and coping with the drama it creates. I can’t say much more than such, but it’ll largely be a character-driven academy game with a body-transfer twist. Most of the time it’ll play as per usual, but occasionally one or several pairs of characters will hop around between the other characters’ family situation, social situations and the list goes on. It has a lot of potential that could be used.
Of course, it’ll demand a fair bit of communication between players, which I’m sure we can work out.
As far as how swappers are picked, it’ll be mostly determined by dice-roll, or by an existing deal with me as the GM allowing it. Things like such would be mostly for things like character arcs, since there will be little to no overlapping story. Other than that, it’ll be at random, at the mercy of RNG-Jesus.
To answer some of the questions I’m expecting, I’ll list up some below so that you can hopefully have your questions answered, and if you don’t, then by all means ask :)
What kind of characters can I play?It is currently not decided if non-swappers and faculty (Swapping or non-swapping) will be permitted, but for now, if you’re interested in any of such, state it.
I’m not comfortable with playing characters of the opposite gender, can I still play?Of course, I’ll add a part of the application that allows you to state if you have any problems with changing bodies with the opposite gender. Do note that until further notice, non-swappers are not confirmed to be a playing part of the game.
Do you have a specific picture-type preference?Yes. While I understand that some might not like it, but personally I prefer to not have actual models etc. participating as it unsettles me a bit. Anime/CGI only please.
Will there be an application?Yes, there will. It’ll be added whenever I have garnished enough interest to go through with this.
Where will this be taking place?While still undecided for now, it’ll likely be an academy-style game.
Will there be room for sex?Of course, and you don’t have to worry about suddenly getting interrupted by a swap unless you want to, I’ll make a whitelist.
What is it you hope to achieve?I want to put an extra twist on your A-typical drama games/shows by adding this kind of twist, changing the dynamic of such a story completely.
