Now Recruiting for the RP "Plague"!

I'm just going to post what I put in the RP Ideas forum because I'm lazy like that. :tongue:


So here it is: I came up with this idea one day and I think that it would be really fun. I've posted about it before, but it didn't really have a lot of information, so I want this one to be different.


Scenario: There's a new strand of the flu that's quickly become an epidemic. We'll start before it becomes a pandemic, whether it does or not is up to the participants of the RP. I'm thinking about five or six characters, and then we can make it a private RP once everyone's there. I really want to people to make up their own characters, and I'd really encourage relationships... (like maybe if someone creates an 8 year old girl, someone else could offer to be the parent or older sibling) but you would have to make sure the other person is okay with it before putting your character in a role like that. I probably shouldn't even have to say that, but you never know. :wink:


Along those same lines of relationships, when the virus is spreading rapidly and no one is safe, maybe some love relationships would be good. And some people are going to have to die. Sorry :(. But we'll try to stretch the RP out as long as we can without it being unrealistic.


About the new strand of flu, which is called H1N2, I've come up with a few ideas for symptoms and stuff. This is not final! :smile 2: I do not want to be overly controlling of this RP - the best RP's are when everyone pitches in, right? Right now this isn't even an RP yet, just an idea, so it's at the stage where everyone can contribute to the scenario.


But here are some of the symptoms I was thinking of:


Earlier, Milder Symptoms

  • A dry, distinctive cough (that way it becomes apparent if someone has it)
  • Dry mouth
  • Sweaty palms
  • Chills
  • Low-Grade fever
  • Insomnia


Later, More Severe Symptoms

  • Hallucinations
  • Internal bleeding
  • Suffocation
  • Insanity


If you're interested, please let me know! :smile 2:

So that was what I posted. I'm thinking about eight to ten people, including myself. Also, there are two people who told me they were interested, so I'm saving two spots in case they decide to join in. I'm about to create the character sheet, and I'll post a link when I'm finished! If you're interested but I haven't completed it yet, just tell me and I'll save a spot for you.

I'm thinking we can discuss this kind of thing right before the RP begins. Like maybe find a time that everyone can be online and pretty much just get everything organized. I'm so happy that all of you guys are interested! I have four spots reserved, don't worry. :smile 2: I posted the link in the first post for the character sheet, so go right right ahead and come up with your character if you don't mind.
