Do you think this is a good idea?

The Evangelist (read for details)

This RP game will be based on a book I am currently writing. The story of the RP will progress as I finish more of the book, and I frequently get writer's block, so don't blame me if nothing happens for days.

The book is about a world where Satan is in charge and God is too weak to do anything (the story will eventually be on FictionPress.com so you can read about why that happened). You will play as a character in league with the main character, Leon Hessner (who I will play as). Create your characters and, if they are fully developed and are full and rounded characters, I may put them into the story (I'll give you credit if he/she gets in).

Remember, the world this takes place in is modern (about 2000-2010) and Satanism is the leading religion. You are a Christian geting ready to fight whoever gets in your way. Swords and bows are unlikely weapons and if you have them, you must give a really good reason why or you must recreate your character. Most likely people will have axes (the lumberjack type), guns, chainsaws, baseball bats; anything you can use today as a weapon. Except for military-grade weaponry. That is strictly off-limits to EVERYONE! (including me; enemies are an exception)

Characters will be created in a way I have yet to develop. If anyone has any objections to any content of this (the fact that God can't do anything or something) please do not get this thread locked. As I said, there will be a perfectly good explanation when I post the Prologue for the story. And if you need it immediately, email me ([email protected]) and I will send you the prologue through that so you can get the info ahead of time. Just make the subject "Evangelist RP".

I hope that when it starts we can have lots of fun, a few laughs, and that I might get a few new ideas for the story.

For Ushgarak to read:

I didn't realize that I had to post the idea in that top thread first, so please forgive me. I just thought "This'd be cool to do" and I wasn't thinking.

I'm sure it'll be alright...i am interested in it...i would like to join when Ush approves it...unless it has already...

It's not approved yet, but thanks for checking it out. If anyone wants to read the prologue for this, I have it posted in the General Fiction Area on this site. You can post comments about it there or PM me. I might have the character development details done by the end of the week.

i will be waiting then...i already checked it out, and it is amazing.

me too

NEW DETAILS: You can be, instead of just Christian, Jewish or Muslim for the game. If you make a Jew or Muslim, you must make the name reasonable for the religion your character follows (like have a Muslim name for a Muslim character) to make it somewhat realistic.

ok...hope Ush approves it...

Sigh... very wlel, but my patience for games sidestepping the permission system here is getting very thin.

Thank you so much. It's just that on other forums I've been to, there wasn't the approval thing you have here, and I didn't know about it. Again, thank you.

Cool stuff! Can't wait for this to start. I'll give you my character stats when I think up something good, like I said. 🤘

The rules are almost finished. I just need to do some fine-tuning then we will be on our way!

First thing. It'll be easy if everyone uses the same symbols for OOC (out-of-character for those who don't know) and speech and everything else:

-Asterisks (*) on both sides of any OOC.
ex: *Can we please get going with the story?*
-Quotation marks ("😉 on both sides of any speech.
ex: "Let's move it!"
-Angle brackets (< and >😉 for thoughts.
ex: <What is that guy doing?>
-Anything else would be narration.
ex: Leon reaches for his cross to hold the demons back.

If this is too restricting for you, then when you make the character, specify what you'll use for each type.

I'm quite interested. However, seeing as how it's almost midnight now and i'm helluva tired, i'll bring some details tomorrow. Peace out.

ps: the thing that got me interested was obviously the title of the thread, which coincides with my Title....the one i've had on every single forum i've been to 😂

Probably not gonna happen... I was barking up the same tree and he said that you must be Christian, Jewish, or Islamic. The point of the story is to get people to believe in God, so I guess that makes sense... 😐

how about athiest then because i can do that, im a devote athiest, though if i had to have a religion i would be buddhist.

Um, this looks interesting - have you got any more details on character creation (ie an example character)

No atheists! For Christ's sake, you need to believe in the god of the Christians, Jews, and Muslims! The whole point is to give strength to him! An atheist helping to give power to God makes no sense at all! You must be Christian, Jewish, or Islamic!

I'm almost done with those. I just have a Chem project intervening with my free time. The rules might be up by next month. Sorry it's taking so long. Blame my Chem teacher for giving me a realy hard project...

I've got to hand it to you. This is interesting.
