Okay, so I am sick of seeing Role Plays begin, and not finish. I am also sick of the lack of variety... of which I am partly guilty of making some... So, I have decided to try something different, a modern day, non-fantasy murder plot. Less action and little physical fights unless a character reaches his threshold and a fight between people breaks out.
The plot is only a skeleton as of yet, but here is what I have.

A corrupt politician who is in charge of some sort of controversial bill... I dunno... Lets say gay rights or abortion for now, and many people want him dead. Despite the danger, he holds a fund-raiser on a boat of his, and invites a few important people (The characters). Each character, has a reason for murdering him, and each one will be a suspect, and will be treated as one. He has done some nasty stuff, such as ruin families, destroy businesses, kill puppies, whatever, this is an absolute jerk.
All of the characters will be suspects, and will be treated as such. It is the duty of the of the other people (plus a detective for plot help I suppose), to find out who did it.
You will be isolated on the boat until the killer is found, or everyone else is dead, so the killer wins. The Killer can be aggressive, or passive, waiting for the rest of the group to kill themselves, or give up.

This will hopefully be a quite short and story driven Role Play. If you want to be the killer, dedication is required, so we aren't stranded without a killer.

Okay, you can post if you think it sounds interesting, or want me to write up more of the story, or a character sheet. Whatever...

I'm pretty new here but I'd be interested in it, participated in similar things a few years back on another forum and it works really well, providing all the players stick with it and post regularly. Good fun :D

Yah, I have been in one too. And seeing nothing but fantasy thingos, I decided to make it...
Good to have you aboard.

S'cuse me? You dropped out of Saviours because of schedule problems, and are now joinging this?

OT: Rp's are in desperate need of new stuff. I'll give it a go if it works.

This looks like a miniature rp so I think I will be able to write a few 3 sentence posts there. I have been forced to make my Prey posts shorter as well. There are also a few other reasons that I left Saviors of the Waking World: I can't install Pesterchum, I suck at drawing, my RP skills suck if I start out an RP on a bad foot (this time), the chain thing is getting confusing, I'm far behind on a different timeline, and lastly I am beginning to feel like I'm ruining the rp for everyone else. Any questions?

Yeah, this looks like a fun diversion. It reminds me of a little thing that was going to happen a while ago. [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/forums/jump/362.226309]

If you'd like, I don't think the maker of that thread is using it, so you might be able to steal a couple of elements.

Only why you didn't tell this earlier. But I don't wanna draw this out over the thread of another guy. Lets cut it short here.
