ooc Shadows of Manehatten [OOC]

[Pucksterv 4,508]

Link for the rp: Shadows of Manehatten

Link for my oc: Detective Midnight

The Story:

The story begins with Detective Midnight, waiting at the entrance of the Manehatten Police Department (M.P.D) for the new rookies and transferred officers. Midnight works at the Murder and other serious crime division. After discovering that his partner was corrupted, there was incident were one of his officers got shot and killed (by Midnight's corrupted partner) and the other team members were transferred because the bureau thought it would be good idea to start over with new officers.

When the new members join the team, they are send to investigate a murder which will later turn out to be done by a serial killer, following several murders after. This does not mean that the team will only be busy with that specific case. During the story, a lot of other crimes will be investigated like foalnappings, hostage situations and other serious crimes.

I imagine the ending of the rp being that they catch the serial killer and then go out for a drink at the local bar.

If you have any problem or tips about the story, please let me know

The theme

The story has a pretty dark theme but I want to be happy as well. I want the story have a little humor and maybe even a little romance (as long as it doesn't take over the story)
This is just normal ponies btw, not anthro ponies. Just try to imagine that ponies have thumbs too and can pull a trigger.

 

---

The rules:

• Even though the rp involves guns and murders, try not describing stuff like blood and guts too much since it is consider NSWF
• When talking to another character, try to mention them or quote them to avoid confusion, it's okay if you forget but try not too.
• If the rp seems to go to fast and your missing to much, say it, I don't want anyone feeling left out.
• if something goes wrong, stop posting and contact me. We will fix it. If I am not available at that time, just wait patiently
• the basic rules in rp'ing

Break the rules, you are out!

What will your role be in the rp? a side character... or maybe even a comic relief to the main character

So I see your still in need of a criminal, I have a few ideas, a few of them are just rip-offs of certain characters from games, tv and films, but I'm sure I can come up with something more unique if you want?
