Gothic/Dystopian Interest Check
by Koi in the River on Thu Jul 02, 2009 9:52 pm
WARNING: This is a near-copy-paste from one of my previous interest checks on a different forum.
Okay, so I'm in sort of a gloomy mood, and this happens to be a recurring thought that comes into mind whenever I'm in such a mood.
So here's the deal: I'm looking for a DEEP, THOUGHT-PROVOKING, LITERATE role play with a group of people who aren't illiterate, simplistic in character creation, or just so lazy that they have to copy all of their writing from a mixture of random animes they've seen in their lifetime. If you're one of those people, please navigate away from this thread before you become more offended than you probably already are. If you're not one of those people, welcome!
Since one of my Gothic-style RPs has already been hijacked by hormonally-driven mediocre authors, I'm going to try again. Here goes everything:
I'm basically thinking of setting the RP in a Olden-Times *slightly* fantasy land, which will include a castle run/owned by some twisted duke/duchess/monarch/patriarch, who happens to have a special power of some sort to where anyone who is brought to the castle as a worker, guard, servant, etc. is bound to it for the rest of eternity, since the ruler somehow feeds off of the life of the people around him/her. That's why they continue to stay in power. The plot, of course, is open for discussion, so don't be afraid to ask any questions because I don't really know how this will turn out either.
...I can't help but feel this will somehow involve vampires.

That feeling might be due to the fact that the ruler of the castle/estate was described as one who bounds their servants to the forever and "feeds" off their life force A.K.A. a vampire. Well you have my intrest. We can talk more about plot and characters soon, when I get my lap top fixed.

It actually has a bit of a 'Ravenloft' feel to it already. (Which makes me want to be involved.)
I am interested, though I am truly terrified that FOG is stealing my lifeforce and I soon will be able to do nothing beside type and drink Diet Mt. Dew.
