7th Dragon, along with our favourite Etrian Odyssey-esque mechanic, FOE wild encounters because no one is safe from the fuzzy orange purple dragon heads here.

No FOE mechanic because I'm the worst, wait, no, actually, depending on what you mean by that, I guess it could TECHNICALLY count - but a 7th Dragon RP is currently in the works. 👀

A pokemon mystery dungeon site. I don't care if it's Jcink or proboards though if I were to help as staff I'd do better at proboards. I just wanna play my rebellious Togepi with her bluk-berry dyed spikes who will take your 'Togepi are supposed to be cute and cuddly' stereotype and dropkick you in the face.

Barring that, I'd like a Wings of Fire rp. I've never done one of those before but it could be interesting!

where fears and lies melt away.
I can't recall if anyone's done it before but I think a Pokemon/Digimon site would be extremely interesting to see. You'd give players the option to choose different classes either playing as a Tamer or a Pokemon Trainer. Have an awesome world-ending plot with the Digital World starting to overlap into the Pokemon World. Things get even spicier when you consider Pokemon like Rotom interacting with Digimon.

Yeah that's a great point Light! I think you can do slice of life on pretty much any site. I wonder what's the distinct difference between a site labelled slice of life oppose to one that isn't. Is it the events that pose some threats to people that makes it different or something else? You really brought up a great point! :)

i think it's if there's more coffee shop threads than fight threads, then it's a slice of life site idk

I think the way I judge if a site is slice of life is if I feel like the overarching plot effects my character. This can also be in conjunction with events. Albeit you could say it is subjective because some slice of life sites do have plots but I think the environment or plot is sort of the big effector there. If the plot is actiony then I stop to maybe consider it may be less slice of life and more of a blend of that and action? Its kinda hard to know where the line starts when a lot of slice of lifes can also have plots that bring in more interest.

I've personally always viewed this as being a matter of intention & focus

A site with a major over arching plot and factions intends to be a plot driven action including story with events and plot influence and things determined by character interactions etc etc.it's more like a story book or an action movie and the intent from the beginning is to pass through Plot check points and play out the story as participants in it.

Slice of life is more about a setting and general interactions resulting in something far more laid back. The goal is to have a nice general setting for characters to established in but no over arching canon story, it's more about the blending of every day adventures and shenanigans with the occasional "but what if this happened?!?" Thrown in to help keep it spicy. They also tend to rely more heavily on member driven plots to make stuff happen than staff driven.

Ex:
A fantasy site where vampires and werewolves hate each other and have been warring for centuries, the war is hitting a boiling point and about to bleed into human society upsetting the cosmic balance between the special and the not, how will you survive when the world starts to fall apart?!?!

Vs

A fantasy site where non humans coexist with humanity, magic and gods are abundant and well received. Peace is the common state of mind and the world can't wait to hear your story.

The latter is most likely to be labeled slice of life because while a werewolf pack and a vamp coven might be fighting in it the intention of the site is not to focus on them specifically, just to let them exist.

A fantasy site where they are the focus may have slice of life elements or characters in it but they are not its main focus, just something that isn't entirely shunned because there's no reason for it to be pushed out when it's just kinda there.


Eta: to be a good girl and obey the rules of the thread..... Kinda feeling a semi modern fantasy setting again. Just a little bit. Miss playing my unruly demons/vamps
