((OK, after a long hiatus I'm back on the RP Boards, this time trying to start a new Open RP Actually, this Open RP is sort of a remake of an Open RP I tried to make almost 2 years ago, but it never went anywhere (it never received any responses)
The premise of this Open RP is simple: Alternate Universes. However, unlike several other RP Threads, the Universe that this Open RP is set in will constantly be shifting (thanks to the crisis that occurs at Portal Corp., which will be the driving factor behind the shifting Universes)
Here's how it will work: At the start of this Thread, and from then on anywhere between 3 - 12 days (depending on how well the Posters are doing in the current Universe), a "Universe Change" will occur. The Portal Corp. Generator (located in it's own, seperate Universe) will send out signals to the Universe that this Thread takes place in, and the entire world will change under your characters' feet (similar to Recluse's Victory in-game). Since I myself won't actually be in control of any characters in this RP Thread (my only job in this Thread will be to change the Universes and give information to the Posters about each individual Universe), I'll probably give a heads-up a day or two before the Universe Change will occur, so any Posters who are in the middle of something in the current Universe can resolve it.
If you feel any of your characters need more time in the current Universe, feel free to PM me. I don't mind holding off changing Universes for a couple days, but I don't want to leave this Thread hanging around one single Universe for too long, so I might have to change it anyway
Whenever a Universe Change occurs, the entire world will change as well; however, I will leave it up to each individual Poster as to how their characters react to the Universe Change. If you want your characters to have some type of "shield" that protects themselves from being altered along with the rest of the world, feel free to do so. If you'd rather have your character altered to fit the new Universe whenever a Universe Change occurs, you may do that as well. The only thing I ask is that whatever "shield" you come up with to protect your characters, it should be limited to a small area (i.e. no shield that's large enough to protect the whole world from Universe Changes, as that defeats the whole purpose of this Thread )
I will try to give enough information whenever a Universe Change occurs so that every Poster has an understanding of how each Universe appears and works in terms of government, day-to-day living, etc. However, I will also try to leave things open for each individual Poster, so that their characters can operate somewhat freely in this new Universe.
Overall, the purpose of this Open RP is to see how each of your Heroes/Villains would react if the entire world were different, and I think it will be interesting to see how your characters react to the many different situations that this Open RP can offer.
Alright, I'm going to leave the first part of this Open RP alone so Posters can show how their characters act normally in Paragon City; I'll probably get the first Alternate Universe started sometime tomorrow.
Thanks in advance to anyone who joins this RP; and try to have some fun with it ))
It was a rather big day for Portal Corp.; the day that the new, experimental Generator would finally be replacing the old generators that powered the enormous Portals that gave Portal Corp. it's name.
There were several hours before the test was scheduled, though, and for the time being, life resumed as normal in Paragon City and the Rogue Isles; or at least as close to "normal" as things could be when a City of Heroes and a City of Villains were right next door to each other...
