    "Dreams"

    I never tried RP, this is my first attempt, don't hit me hard, yada yada yada.

    So the back story is: "After regular day your pony has returned home and went to sleep as they usually do. Awakening was unpleasant. You find yourponyself in some dark room."
    That's so far is all I can tell you. I'll play as the one who will describe you what exactly is in the room you at (In this particular case), where does this room leads you and all next events.

    As for ponies
    Species allowed: Earth Pony, Unicorn, Pegasus

    And you also have 7 game points to distribute to: Luck and Faith (You can distribute points whatever you want, but you have to spend at least 1 point to both Luck and Faith).
    This point will affect the events you encounter. How exactly? It's a mystery that you will find (or not find) out latter. (At least I can tell that Luck is just luck itself, Faith is little bit harder)

    Also I'll try to support this with pictures of OCs being in event, but since I'm not very active.... This RP probably will be not very good...

    So if you want to give it a try - apply. I also can tell that it's not creepy or gore RP. It's more like puzzle.
    Also I must say that I can't tell you more about what awaits you in this RP only because it depends on how you will set your game points.

    What I need from you?

    Luck and Faith distribution:
    Name:
    Gender/Species:
    Looks:
    Personality:
    Cutie mark (not necessary):
    (or you can direct me to OC list)

    Also you can have only one OC per player, estimated amount of players 5-10 but could be more if there is ponies willing to play.

    I will have my Faith in that this RP will go good, and hope you ponies will wish me some Luck.

    Sounds like something I might be interested in. I understand your reluctance to give away certain details, but I would only like one thing clarified first about the Faith stat: Faith in what, exactly? Religious Faith? Faith in others? Faith in oneself (self-confidence)?

    According to the plan - all of it. It's for you to decide how to use your faith. Belive in yourself - get bonuses for yourself, belive in other pony - pony will get bonuses

    Okay then, I assume we'll get more details in the actual sign-up about the starting scenario, at which point I'll make my final decision, but you have piqued my interest.

    Let's wait a bit more (a day or two) then I will know for sure, but 2 people is clearly not enough, even if I join with my OC

    What I'd like answered in the sign-up thread
    -In what way is the awakening unpleasant?
    -Where is everyone in relation to each other? Are we all in the same room? Are we sleeping on the floor, in separate beds, or in one giant bed?
    -Is there an overarching storyline, or does it have as much context/backstory as an average Flash room escape game ("You find yourself trapped in a room with no memory of how you got there, and no hope of ever figuring out what happened to put you in this situation. You are filled with an overwhelming urge to leave the room, and decide to tear the room apart and use items in the room in convoluted and nonsensical ways in the hope that you'll find a key hidden somewhere that will unlock the door. Have fun with that.")?

    Since chances of that this thing will launch is lower and lower I'll answer it here.

    awakening unpleasant - cuz some of you could find themselves sleeping on ground
    Where is everyone in relation to each other? - in different places that soon will lead you to each other
    is there an overarching storyline - yes there is and it so huge that even I don't know a half of it (like I said it is much dependant on how and what ponies will do. I'm giving total feedom on it, so ponies can either set themself on fire or do completely nothing - the story will continue. I have the starting point and the end (well maybe few other point you will encounter in process) other then that - it's mostly you who create the story.

    Also I must thank you for you activity and for questions you aks. Like I said I'm new to this and [​IMG]

    so yeah... Thank you iSmartMan!

    Low chances of launching? I can't imagine why. You've got 4 people showing interest, and a storyline that has a fair amount of direction, but is flexible enough to not force the RPers to follow the path you want. I admit, it'll probably die out before reaching its conclusion, but then that's the fate of most RPs on this site. Just remember, you always learn more from your failures than from your successes, but you'll learn nothing if you don't try at all.

    Ahh you calmed me down) Chance of dying always tempts me. Also its conclusion as flexible as RP is, so it can occur at any moment when RP start to die xD

    Okay I'll start it as soon as I find out how to do that

    I would say to wait 2-3 days before assuming it's dying. I've seen RPs here revive unexpectedly when I'd given them up for dead.
