Hey Rora! Long time no see.

Anyway, I feel similar. Rping doesn't feel the same for me anymore like it did when I was younger. I think anyone can rp regardless of age but most people naturally end up growing out of things they used to enjoy when they were younger for whatever reason. Plus as you get older, you just come into things that take precedence over a hobby.

My own interest in rping in general has been declining as the years pass. I've even talked about this very subject with a friend awhile back and how I feel like I'm getting closer to just being done with it all together.

I do like making characters, I do like thinking up of plots and seeing where it goes, but it gets harder to keep up the same energy at times when you get older. I think it's especially worse for the rping community to keep it as a hobby because these types of things require a lot of build-up and then real life gets in the way and suddenly you, or your rp partner can't post as often as you'd like. And when someone can post, the other person might now be in a situation where they can't post for awhile which can really kill interest in continuing plots if you aren't close with the person.

Compare it to something like drawing or writing fanfics where you can stop anytime you want and easily pick it back up again. Rping just doesn't have that luxury, which is another reason why I find myself slowly getting disinterested in picking it back up whenever I go on a hiatus. I may have strong interest in something now, but I know that I may not feel the same in a few months which prevents me from joining sites all together. I don't want to leave people hanging.

But what makes me come back each time is nostalgia. I miss that feeling I had when I was younger. I want to experience the same fun I had but again, it's just harder because now that I'm older. To me, rping is like that one friend in high school. You like the person. You have great memories with the person. So, you decide to catch up with them after a while but then find out you just don't have that same "click" anymore. So now, do you try and find a way to relate to the person and rekindle the relationship or is it just easier to move on to focus on someone else you click with a lot more?

Sorry for the ramble but I have a lot of thoughts on this and just wanted to get it out.

SENET (working title) is an original fantasy RP based on Ancient Egyptian mythology. It will be set in a world heavily inspired by the ancient Egyptian civilization and similar, surrounding cultures where magic is real and the Egyptian Gods walk the earth. [break][break]



[attr="class","sensubtitle]PLOT
Hundreds of years ago, the gods lifted the darkness from the world and its never-ending sea, bringing light to the shadowy expanse and giving the creatures that had inhabited the dark world their first form. They continued to shape the formless sea, and eventually created humans in their endeavors. However, their newest creations were struggling to survive in the new world. The creatures from before there was light still roamed the grounds. They were great, powerful things that were older than the gods themselves and had chosen humanity as their prey. [break][break]



Upon seeing this, the gods gifted humanity with the power of magic to defend themselves against these creatures so they can live without fear. [break][break]



Humanity began to flourish after their gift. A grand civilization began to form and gods were still held in reverence for all they had done. In addition, the gods split up parts of themselves into essences and blessed many newborns with it, turning them into vessels so that the gods themselves may better watch over their new world. [break][break]



The gods continue to walk the earth but the earth still was not in order. The creatures from before the light still threaten humanity and the abuse of magic against other humans run rampant. What else will happen in this chaotic world? [break][break]



[attr="class","sensubtitle]Characters
There are two playable classes: HUMANS and VESSELS. [break][break]



HUMANS: Humans as we know them but with the ability to control magic. A humanโ€™s magic is not as strong as the godsโ€™ magic or the vesselsโ€™ magic but they have the ability to learn multiple areas of magic. [break][break]



VESSELS: These vessels are considered the gods themselves and are held in reverence by the humans. A vessel can take many forms and the gods often favor animals that are representative of them. However, there are human vessels in this world; this is the other playable class in this rp. Some human vessels are born and appear as completely normal humans while others may have animalistic features to varying intensities. [break][break]



While they may share certain traits with their godself, each vessel also has a sense of self that is seperate from their godliness. They have their own personalities and goals separate from the god they represent. Their magic is more powerful than a humanโ€™s, less powerful than the actual godsโ€™, and is limited to the domain that the god they represent can control. E.G. Ra vessels can only control sun/light based magic but the sun-magic would be stronger than a humanโ€™s sun-magic. [break][break]



There can also be multiple vessels of the same god with personalities and looks that are independent of each other. These vessels may either be naturally drawn to or pushed to positions of power but not always. It is still up to the individual vessel to decide how they want to live. [break][break]



If this is something you're interested in, or have questions about, please let me know!

CYAN'S WISHLIST

FAVORITE COLOR(S): Blues, greens, and purples of any shade/tint and black.
FAVORITE FC(S): I actually don't have any as I typically change them per character and I almost never reuse a character.
FAVORITE SERIES: Miyazaki movies, Fire Emblem, Persona, Gekkan Shoujo Nozaki-kun, Pokemon, ATLA, and Steven Universe.
MISC FAVORITES: Spirited Away is my favorite movie of all time. Alm, Kliff, Chrom, Owain, Tharja, Lucina, Camilla, and Leo are the characters I like best from Fire Emblem. P5 Ryuji is my boi. I like Blue and Pink Diamond along with Garnet the most in SU. I also like 9S from Nier:Automata as well.

CODING: Proboards please. I typically don't join jcink sites. A posting template is fine but I would also love a multi-plotter.
GRAPHICS: 200x300 avatars are great.
ICONS: Matching 100x100 icons to go along with the above would be nice.
ART: I would like to see any of those characters drawn above if you do draw something. Maybe something of them being cute?
MISC: Anything is fine.

PLEASE AVOID: Overly saturated & sharpened images. Please do NOT send me anything sad/depressing either.

THINGS I CAN MAKE: I can draw busts of characters and do graphics. I can also do very simple post tables but I'm way better at drawing/editing than I am at coding.

I decided to bite the bullet and fully commit to making a Bloodborne rp because I don't think anyone else will do it anytime soon and I want something to help my soothe my itching as I wait for any signs of a sequel that may never come. But I can't do it alone. Right now, I am looking for 1 or 2 admins to help me build the site and then run it. It'll include help writing out threads for members to read, creating boards, and etc. If you are interested, post here or send me a PM and I'll give you my discord where we can talk more about the site before actually building it. 

If you are interested in helping but can't commit to being actual staff, feel free to shoot me a PM as well! 



About the RP:
- Will be an original Bloodborne-based plot and lore. This way, it'll allow us more freedom with the site plot/events so we don't have to worry about an explanation on how it fits into the original game setting. It'll also help draw in those who might be reluctant to join because their lack of knowledge regarding the original game's lore. 

- Setting is victorian gothic themed. So aesthetically still the same as the game, but won't take place in Yharnam for the above reason.

- No stats. This is mostly just my own preference. I am not a huge fan of stat-based rps to begin with and I feel like it'll deter more people than attract those willing to put up with it.

- Will be hosted on Proboards. 

- No word count requirement. 

- Animanga FCs. CGI, video game and western characters will be allowed as long as the art used is 2D. Though no FCs from Bloodborne will be allowed for plot reasons.

What I am looking for in an admin:
- Previous staff experience. You don't have to be an admin before but you need to have experience in some sort of staff position, whether it be accepting bios or just an advertising mod. Just be aware of the responsibilities that'll come with the position.

- Follows the rules. If we decide on a rule, I expect us as staff to follow them as well, no exceptions. It's fair for the members and I don't want to work with anyone who bends things for themselves and their friends.

- Bloodborne knowledge is ideal. It'll be easier to work with those already familiar with any games from the Soulsborne series but knowledge of Bloodborne in particular is preferred. However, Soulsborne knowledge is not an absolute requirement. I'm more than open and willing to work with you if you have never touched a Soulsborne game. 

- Coding/Skinning knowledge is ideal but not required. If I could get someone who knows how to code or even skin, great! But again, not absolutely necessary for an admin. I know just enough for us to get by but nothing will look super fancy on my end. Just not harsh on the eyes at least.

A Harry Potter RP set in one of the other major wizarding schools, like Ilvermorny. Or Mahoutokoro for the weebs. It's a shame that we don't really any official media involving them so a fan rp is the best we're gonna get if we want to explore those schools more.

A dark fantasy rp set in the Victorian era, kind of like Black Butler or Penmy Dreadful. Like making contracts with demons for a from rags to riches story, discovering underground cults in your city, or hunting down eldritch horrors!


I've been playing Bloodborne and this type of rp is exactly what I crave. An actual Bloodborne based rp would be great too. Just give me something with a Victorian gothic aesthetic please.
