I apologize for not taking care of other things, but I had a pseudo-epiphany for possible future roleplay ideas, and I just wanted to get them out realllyy fast before I forget them all in a stream of consciousness form....mind you, though that these are underdeveloped;
Inspiration: Lord of the Rings, Avatar (The Last Airbender), Crystal Chronicles, and the Legend of Zelda
This rp would take place in some sort of fantasy realm. It would be either extremely futuristic but steampunky (FF9/ Crystal Bearers-type environment) or strictly stuck in the medieval/ archaic era.
There are 4-6 races in this world (the other two are debatable)
-Humans
-Elves (Lord of the Rings style, not Santa's little helpers)
-Merpeople (their appearances is similar to the Zora in the Zelda series)
-The cubi- A race of succubi/ incubi. They are a people consisting of horns and devil-like tails, whose nation was destroyed long ago in a great war. They are forcibly scattered amongst wastelands in this world, and often turn to thievery for survival. They are much like the selkie/ moblins from CC/ LOZ. There is, however, more to them than what meets the eye
-Trolls? These are large creatures meant to resemble something between the archetypal orc and...oversized armadillos. They possibly inhabit mountains, and rely on mining/ welding.
-(unknown name) A short people meant to resemble short anthromorphic foxes. They are meant to fulfill the archetypal fairy/ hobbit role.
Long story short, a war is coming to this world. No one knows who the oppressor is with the exception of a select few of people. That's all I'm saying for now
Inspiration: Gunnerkrigg Court, Minish Cap, Little Big Planet, 9, chibi robo
This rp would examplify some sort of division between magic and science. I also wanted to do something that had to do with small people.
There are the fairies, who represent magic, a large people of...well, mice, who were genetically engineered to become superintelligent beings and developed their own society (as present in "The Secret of Nym, the Great Mouse Detective, and as far as I know, Redwall) to represent science, and, in order to mediate parts from both worlds, robots.
However, these robots would be small, special androids. They would be physically constructed with scientific means, but they contain souls. These souls are not the deceased incarnations of humans or animals who have died, but they are simply entities of their own who were not given bodies. They are much like the yukes from Crystal Chronicles.
I'm not sure what I would do with this one, however...
Inspirations: X-men, Maximum Ride, Heroes, Jumper
This one I had done before, and it was quite exciting when it was alive. Basically, it takes place in a modern world where a bunch of people are fleeing the hands of a secret scientific industry. These people often have abilities that no normal human being could muster. An elemental could control an element ( much like in Avatar, but it would be a choice of air, earth, fire, electricity, water, or metal), a shapeshifter could alter their physical form (turning into an animal, or perhaps simply changing their hair color at will), or as a psychic they could have many abilities, such as telekenesis or the ability to force a person to hallucinate.
In turn, I was also thinking of doing one where these people are fleeing the clutches of a division of the Church, who believes in slaying them for "playing God" by "stealing his gifts"
Inspiration: Inception, Psychonauts, The World Ends with You, Rozen Maiden, Persona
This is very underdeveloped. Basically, in this universe, one fights with one's mind, or a manifestation of it. These manifestations would be called "muses". Someone who had a passion for playing guitar would have a muse weapon shaped like a guitar, or perhaps for writing a pen or a book. They would enter another person's mind to find a potential muse or defeat a vice, an aspect of one's mind that prevents one from excelling.
Anyway, let me know if anyone's interested in any of these, and I'll give a full explanation.
