You just had the most horrible nightmare. You can't quite remember what it was about, only that you woke up screaming. As you take a few deep breaths to calm yourself down, the last remnants of the dream quickly slip away. Shaking it off, you get up from your bed and begin your daily routine. Everything seems normal, until you step outside. You say hello to your neighbor, but they don't seem to realize you're there. As you go about your day, nopony seems to notice you, no matter how hard you try to get their attention. And what's more, everypony seems to have an air of melancholy around them. What could have happened to make them all so sad? You follow somepony around, trying to look for answers. It seems they're all headed to the same place. A massive gathering of ponies, with a large coffin sitting on a pedestal at the front. Who's in the coffin? you wonder, already dreading the answer. Nopony seems to notice you as you slowly walk over to the coffin. No one sees a thing as you slowly creep over and peer at the body inside. That's when the truth hits you. That's when you remember. You're dead.
So, this roleplay is about a vast and wonderful journey to the afterlife. It's mostly free-form, so you can feel free to do whatever you want, as long as it's within the rules of course. I have a major plot in mind, but there's loads of room for improvising, so feel free to introduce your own little subplots of you wish. Be creative! Now, with that said, let's move on to characters. I'm not sure how many characters I want in this just yet, but not much. Also, only one character per player, sorry guys. (Any NPC's I or anyone else makes can be controlled by others though). If you want to enter the game, you can post a link to your character's page, or if you don't have one, just fill in the following info:
Name:
Age:
Gender:
Species: (Non-ponies are allowed, but no alicorns)
Appearance: (You can link a picture or write a description, or both if you want)
Cutie Mark: (What it is, and what it represents)
Personality:
Backstory: (You can include how they died if you want, though it's not mandatory)
Other: (Any other important info I forgot to list? Add it here.)
Rules of RP
I am the GM (unless real life happens and I need to appoint someone else, which is possible I suppose), and thus I have the final word on things. If you see someone breaking the rules or playing unfairly (such as godmodding or such), report them to me. As well, if you have an idea for an interesting story arc, feel free to run them through me first (I'll probably say yes, but just in case).
General forum rules and roleplay forum rules still apply here. Any breaking of these rules will result in getting kicked from the game, as well as whatever the mods feel like dishing out.
Inactivity! If you're inactive for too long (it'll be three days for now, though I might lengthen or shorten the time depending on how fast the RP's going) you will be kicked.
Use proper English! I'm not asking you to write something extremely elaborate or full of prose, but I'd appreciate it if proper spelling and grammar was used in this roleplay. Use a spellchecker, or if your browser doesn't have one, type it out in a word document before posting.
Don't be a dick. I will not tolerate dickery in my games. If your character is generally mean, that's okay, but be courteous when talking in this thread, and of course, godmodding and other such things is just plain uncool.
Finally, have fun! If you're not having fun, I'm not doing my job right. But no pressure, of course.
