Rundown: 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.

~NEXUS GUARDIANS~

[(Anonymous)]

i'm admitting right now that this was inspired/ripped off from the 2007 animated Doctor Strange film which i am now watching on netflix but anyway

at the heart of the multiverse is a nexus from which all other worlds can be accessed. characters are brought to the nexus from their homeworlds because whoever is in charge of this mess senses in them the potential to learn how to bend reality in order to defeat the extradimensional horrors that inhabit the nexus and occasionally break through into other worlds.

canon powers are nerfed on arrival and characters instead develop a unique "magic" style based on the way they perceive and manipulate reality. game would have an overarching plot (probs involving some evil bad guy trying to harness the power of the nexus and rule supreme, etc etc) with gameplay divided into periods of slice-of-life (training and cr-building around the nexus headquarters), routine missions battling monstrosities (on either "home" or "away" missions, defending hq from monsters or traveling to infested worlds to neutralize them) and plot-advancing stuff.

characters start off as baby guardians who are just learning how to manipulate reality. as time passes in-game, they develop new and stronger powers (oocly, this occurs by passing ac and cashing in extra activity rewards). players would have the option of apping "veteran" characters who've been doing this stuff for a while and help with training newcomers, in exchange for more advanced powers.

thoughts?

I'd app here. I like eldritch horror and reality bendy magic. I also like the idea of both home and away missions.

Would the nexus be some cool mindbendy steve ditkoesque kinda setting?

it'd be neat to play up the nexus as a weird place full of non-euclidean geometry, escher stairs, random abstract shapes, things that shift in and out of existence, stuff like that. someplace that's such a confusing mess of sensory overload that even navigating it with any degree of accuracy requires some training. maybe this could even be used as a mechanic to keep characters there who wouldn't normally agree to do so. like yeah, you can go home, but you need to learn how first, sorry.
