A superpower roleplay based on Worm (just because of the creative spin the setting puts on powers) or something similar. I just want a roleplay where superpowers are used creatively/have systems in place that encourage creative applications of a superpower.

Worm has a great power system! I would love to see a site based even off of that. I remember loving Worm and trying to put people onto it, haha. Imagine collaborative endbringer battles...!

I know right! Events with S-class threats; Endbringers, the sever's own brand of slaughterhouse/murder hobbos, anything! Plus the staff team could handle powers because Worm is all about making the best of what you got, and creative power usage. People could put in their app any classification, or maybe describing their shard's use in the cycle, and the staff could work with coming up with their power based on that.

Either way, I would love anything remotely similar to worm in nature! It's literally my favorite slice of fiction.

I love Worm's power system! It is so simple yet complex enough that it would make Worm perfect for a RP.
I enjoy My Hero Academia but I'm tired of it being the only option for a animanga superhero rp.


Is it bad that I want a Worm RP bad enough that I already have character ideas in my head? Because I do.

Oh, dude, I have... three ideas that I've just been sitting on, plus two more that can slot into the setting.

Damn maybe someone should make a Worm site

+1 to randomization - Even better: players write our their characters' trigger events and staff designs the power based on those conditions! I mean, my ideas are pretty superpower-based but certain types of triggers usually result towards a certain classification anyway, so if you know, you know.

Mhmm well they would have to provide the event so the staff could make the powers! But yeah shards are really really stupid even though they are basically inter dimensional super computers structured to a certain purpose. We have people give a short one sentence description or one word description of their shards purpose in the cycle. Shards look at the trigger events in really....odd ways but I digress let’s just use Grue’s shard as an example; his shard is thought to be used to displace matter and energy across dimensions.

We can use that description to think of several cool powers for each classification and more! Mover!Grue throws out his darkness, sinks into it, and appears somewhere else his fog was. Master!Grue could feed off the “emotional” energy that a person emits and leave them in a state of suicidal apathy, etc.

Also a fun idea too; perhaps have a few on site canon spots? I assume you were gonna do something like this but we can also do on site canon clusters!!

God, cluster capes would be so fun........ ya'll...........................

Honestly, I don't think you would need to address the shards during the sign-up process at all, if only because power classifications are a more intuitive entry point into the Wormverse whereas the shards are like the 200 bonus course. Knowing about the shards and what they entail is the part in the story where you go "Wait, WHAT, this is a cosmic horror I thought it was edgy Avengers??"

For power classifications = trigger events, this is from the Worm Wiki: "As a general rule, Breakers, Movers and Trumps tend to feel distant from the rest of humanity.[14] This manifests in different ways however, with trumps focused on parahuman powers, [whereas] breakers almost literally [separate] themselves from humanity, and movers have trouble feeling rooted and staying in one place." There's crossover, and the separate articles go into more detail for not only each classification but each sub-classification - not all Movers trigger the same, but they have a main thing in common, and it encourages players to write creative history sections and mods to pay attention to them, give them powers that suit them. It's a lot easier than wrangling Lovecraftian monster biology, in my opinion.

i remember after finishing dark souls 3 i was feeling mad withdrawal so i skinned a dark souls forum for no reason lol. honestly... i would kill for the real thing. something set in a kingdom as it falls to hollowing. each kingdom in dark souls has a specific story for why it was destroyed so it would be interesting to play out what led to that.

I really enjoy how season 3 Lostorage incited WIXOSS places everything on its head from Season 1 & 2....


I don't want a card game roleplay.. but rather a partner [who is formed from your memories] working along side you.. and you name attacks.. and roll a dice to decide damage.. And just.. an Overall Roleplay based on WIXOSS with maybe some magical girl and yugioh spiced in there.

How can something be so specific and so on point at the same time?

This bunny is classical and burnt out on MHA and Pokemon, soooo...

Naruto? Still a big fan and it's a shame not a lot of these forums exist without making some kind of system that involves stats mostly or a whole lot of listed techniques that virtually have anything to do with the character and expressing them. Not only that, but would love to see a forum that either made use of the five villages effectively or perhaps even just reduced the numbers so that it would encourage more interaction. Just crave something very plot driven that captured the emotion of the anime which explored a lot of political and economic stand points. Especially between clans and ideas!

This Bunny wants that feudal drama!~
