Hi Pixel Perfect Community,I'm working hard to bring an animanga rp that intentionally focuses on the cozy tropes / feelers found in games such as Mabinogi, Harvest Moon, Rune Factory, Atelier series, Tales series, Animal Crossing, Sims Series, and Breath of the Wild.I want to commit to a long-term role-play that has a warm feel in both in character and out of character. I want it to always be easily accessible to newcomers.
SETTING: The story will center around the residents of Tir Chonaill. Tir Chonaill is a small hillside town located in northeast Uladh, It is home to the descendents of the Partholons, founders of the Uladh kingdom. The villagers of this scenic town are a small, self-sufficient and independent group of farmers and ranchers raising crops and cattle. The residents of Tir Chonaill prefer peace and isolation, content with little exposure to the massive world of Erinn. However, those with a more adventurous spirit can further venture beyond Tir Chonaill to Dunbarton through the Dugald Aisle...
THEMES:To enable the coziness feel - We will focus on one village, developing the nuances in one small settlement. The role-play won't center on a large world and spread out plots and developments, it will be centralized and close-nit. The role-play will be story / plot driven, and game mechanics will be used as a tool to add to character growth and surprises along the way. Dungeons & Adventure - The Adventurers guild will need to travel through dark dungeons and go on quests beyond the village gate. There is also danger lurking in the nearby forest. Dangerous beings will constantly challenge the livelihood of the Tir Chonaill villagers. As expected, many Chonaillians will devote their lives protecting the village. If desired, we can go on quests outside of the gates of Tir Chonaill -- as well as lurk underground dungeons. Although the role-play focuses on one particular village, this won't stop the heart of many adventurers. Relationships, Love & Socialization - Tir Chonaill is filled with love, close-knit families, and friendships. Notable tenderness and romance comes from this warm village, but like any group of people - relationship strife is bound to happen. Drama and interesting relationship dynamics are encouraged. Role-players will take on jobs within the village which will enable more character development and interaction opportunities with other role-players. Players can have multiple roles within the village if it makes sense. There will be roles such as store owners, farmers, fortune-tellers, bakers, seamstresses etc. There will also be a guard, and an adventurers guild, of course. - Politics & War will also be integrated within different arcs, but won't be a main focus. - Families, Family Trees, Heritage, and Family History will be a focus as well. Blood relations between characters is encouraged but not required. - Comedy is needed! We will have our dramatic moments, but comedy is often lacking in many role-plays -- so we want to explore these this theme as much as possible. *As a role-player it is up to you to decide what aspect of the role-play you will focus on. You only have to participate in threads that suit your fancy. You have the ability to mold your experience to your liking. MECHANICS:We will use simple mechanics for battles and crafting. The mechanics will be optional in plenty aspects of the role-play. This will be a Fixed time role-play - All actions we take as a role-player matter. It will be documented and added to the master timeline. You can always make threads in the past for flashbacks and character development purposes. This will enable new subplots and ideas to grow and develop.
TODO LIST & UPDATES:I will need to attempt to code or commission a skin for the site. Aesthetics, User experience, and organization are important to me, so I want to find a jcink template that will be the right fit. I am currently working out the mechanics at the moment while also fleshing out the plot structure and other components.
Updates will be posted in this thread, and you can post to show interest & I will alert you when it launches! I am currently seeking staff / help of any kind.
For folks interested in staffing / helping. I created a google form.
