Persona roleplay idea, this is literally me pulling ideas out of my butt, but here we go.

So we had, uuuuh, the TV world, and then a phone app, so for this one, we go to the Strange World by jumping into old dinosaur computers SSSS.Gridman style. Strange World is the digital/physical manifestation of people's (often stress-induced) dreams. People have been falling into seemingly random, unexplainable comas around the world or whatever, succumbing to their own grief/stress/what have you and getting stuck in their own nightmares, and the only way to wake them up is to beat their dream self and help them come to terms with their situation. Strange World is therefor subject to all sorts of weird logic and random chance things - you know, like in a regular stress dream.

The member-played characters live all over the world, though. There's no central hub setting. Instead, all communication is done via phone calls, texting, or video chats (with some exceptions for the odd couple of people who might live nearby). Social ranks are done over, like, some Facebook-esque social media site, so your friendship level literally ranks up on site the more you talk to each other/the more you experience together. (Otherwise, they can all just live together in a sleepy town, if the Internet Friends thing is too hard to carry out in RP???)

You get your Persona by smashing your cellphone in anger, this is a very serious idea.

it's so weird having woken up in the middle of the night thinking that you're vibrating, then realizing that the whole house is the thing that's shaking, then going back to sleep and realizing in the morning that you just felt an earthquake nbd
