Which one? The cool psycho or the ax-crazy redneck?


"Ha! Is that what you call stabbing? Heh, I'll show you real stabbing!"

"WRONG! Your name is Priestess. No names! Not in this line of work!"

"Congratulations, you passed the first goblin test. Only goblins drink their own piss."

"Time to get Humpty."

"I cast... death..."

"The sound of goblins burning to death. Now that's magic!"

"It's November! NOVEMBER!" Beneath the gold, the Bitter Steel.

Ohh, so you mean Titan Storm Abridged...

This is the sort of thing I mean, Azi. It's a setting that's less about cute ideals and plot and more about showcasing everyone in the setting to be some variation of a jerkass steriotype while constantly referencing dank memes and obscure references.

Not quite what I had in mind, though I will admit I didn't watch much of the video.

For my thriller RP, something like:

Basically, an RP where you shouldn’t f**k with some people. Or monsters. However, the cocky jerk who gets into trouble is what you got at, West, so it does kinda fit this, too.
I always wanted an RP where users can powerplay other NPC heroes/monsters to death, and even other players, if they could. However, this would require multiple heroes per user, I think.

Although some moves look unrealistic, historically, there are brutal references to people literally being chopped in half diagonally from the shoulder down to the waist, or sundered from the top of the head to the sternum. However, slicing through metal armour is impossible, unless the armour is made of tin or something.

Octavius' stuff is going on a few feet away from where Aria is, right? She probably won't get involved, but I want to make sure just in case it seems right to do so. Done in by the dubious doings of destiny.

The absurd character interactions and nonsensical motivations were what I was trying to point out – the fact the parody is based on a horror is purely coincidental. I think rather than a shift of genre, a shift from serious to silly player-character archetypes could be fun.

As for wanting to kill any of my characters, my stance remains the same – I really don’t mind, so long as it makes narrative sense. I love last stands, and would probably join a roleplay where the only option is death or defeat (though a supernatural or futuristic setting would be prefered, especially one where the human form can take more punishment, maybe even pulling off a heroic RRoD in the process).

That being said, I'm not sure violence is a topic that needs pre-meditated thinking. Violence is just something that happens.

Octavius would be nearby Aria, yes, but it's up to the users on what to do.

Ah, I see, a mix of parody and horror, peculiar.

Last stands would be fun for sure. I also wouldn't mind something like that, so long as it does something, even something as simple as buying other characters' some time. Overall, though, it seems we should focus on current RPs.
