This is an idea I had while I was offline for a bit, and borrows heavily from the concept of SMT. But it's only the concept, not plot, characters or setting that I'm using, so I thought this belonged here.
Basically, this is gonna be a veeeeery dark RP, showcasing what power does to different people under different circumstances. It'll also go by the idea that every decision matters.
Now, we'll be going post apocalypse setting, though we'll be starting with your typical 20th century setting. Big city, industrial reliance, with your characters going about their day to day business. After maybe two or three pages of this, bam, apocalypse.
However, rather than your characters surviving through wit, guns etc, they'll be summoning demons to protect themselves against the "wild" demons running free all over Location XXXX. Your enemies and allies, depending on who you side with both at the beginning and throughout the RP, will include religious sects, cults, each other, even the government.
How will each decision matter? Well I'll explain that now. Rather than simply making one character and placing him or her into the RP to see how things play out, I'll be making a fuckton of "NPCs" of sorts. Each will have different values, different goals, and different allegiances, and depending on your actions throughout the RP, they'll come to join you, oppose you, betray you, or even die because of your actions. Because of that, everything you do matters to a huge extent, and I'm hoping this "gamemaster" role I'm taking will prove as fun to you as I think it will to me, because you just don't know what's going to happen until you try.
As for the demons you summon, they can be from any mythology, be it Judeo-Christianity, Mesopotamian, Hindu, Aztec, etcetc, again borrowing from the concept of Shin Megami Tensei. Or you can design your own. I'm hoping that this concept will make for an interesting RP, with lots of twists, turns and surprises.
So give me your thoughts, questions etc. If I get... six people who are interested, I'll shove up a template, rules, maybe a more in depth story, and let you all get to work.
