Rundown: [community profile] rpanons is an anonymous community for role-play related topics. This place serves as a forum for game discussions, canon discussions, RP solicitations (ATP, game ads, open memes), and advice. The occasional off topic comment is inevitable, but please keep heated social and political topics to their respective communities. Posting them here will only get them frozen. Subsequent threads made to bypass a freeze will then be deleted.

Rules:

Do not post pornographic or shocking images.
Do not share private entries, plurks, chat logs, etc.
Do not use this community as your social/political/hatespeech soapbox.
Do not be redundant. One page does not need three or more threads on one topic/theme. Your unfunny, forced memes also fall under this rule.
Do not treat this comm like your personal therapist. Threads about nonfictional suicide, self injury, rape, and abuse will be deleted. There are better resources out there for you.
Do not treat this comm like your personal Plurk or Twitter. Off-topic happens, but it should be open for discussion and not just a play-by-play of your life. No one cares.
Shut up about Tumblr. If it's not a discussion about Tumblr RP it will be deleted.

So what would you say the tone of this game is like, anons? From the premise and the enablers on plurk I thought it was more on the lighthearted end of plotty, but reading all this about murder plots makes it sound like it's much darker in tone. I'm not looking for a place where only nice things happen to my character and I'm not interested in solely slice of life, but I just got out of a horror game and I'm burnt out on playing my character in constant peril. I know one thread on an anoncomm isn't necessarily indicative of the overall game tone, though, so I was just interested in hearing more before I start looking at apping. Thanks in advance!

emp is not a horror game by any stretch of the imagination. most of the death has been cast specific plots and are very contained. that's why the mods bringing special attention to it and introducing this new special entity is so out of left field and confusing. the entire point was to cut down on death plots in the first place (there have only been three recently though...)

the biggest events are the festivals and parties followed by god caused events and then followed by some psuedo political/bureaucracy stuff of being representatives for the otherworlders. there is some very long running mystery elements of figuring out just what the gods are and the history of the floating island too. overall it's a light mood with occasional action plots like the earthquake created by aiada.

Thanks anon! That sounds a lot more like a mix I would be happy with.

its a fantasy game with a balance of serious and lighthearted. its not anywhere near as dark in tone as this thread makes it sounds, you're fine.

Thanks! That's good to hear. A more balanced game is what I'm currently looking for.
