roleplay description
-
this is a casual island survival rp with a bit of a twist. yes, the code is ancient and fugly (it's the first bbcode i ever made), but it works and i don't wanna put a ton of effort into making a new one for a roleplay like this that doesn't center on appearance.
what sets this apart from the usual island survival rp is that it starts on the cruise ship for the first few days, which will hopefully allow time for characters to meet each other in a more normal environment and even form different types of relationships. once the ship wrecks, those who dislike each other will be forced to push past it if they want to make it on the island.
i was hoping to focus more on character interactions and the drama that brings with it than plain old by-the-books survival, but don't worry, there's still going to be plenty of adventure and danger.
the rules are pretty simplistic, and can be found below in their own section.
as for characters themselves, i'm open to a lot of different types. the biggest rule is that i will NOT be accepting any psychopaths/sociopaths/assassins/criminals/murderers/survivalists or similar. i want this to be fun for everyone, and having violent edgelord characters like these wreck the fun... and besides, PVP combat isn't permitted anyway. characters can absolutely be rude or start arguments, but i'm not looking for edgy serial killers. those are boring.
you're more than welcome to play a more dramatic character (sick, injured, pregnant, young etc.) or one with useful skills (doctor, cook, herbalist, tour guide etc.), as those add to the plot and make things interesting.
the maximum amount of characters per person is 2, unless you're willing to kill one off, in which case it's 3.

rules
-
This isn't a super complex roleplay, and the rules are fairly simple.
• No godmodding, controlling other people's characters or killing without permission. You're welcome to kill off your own character, but don't attempt to kill someone else's. This is NOT a PVP/combat roleplay! Characters are working together to survive, not make things worse. It's fine and encouraged to start drama or arguments occasionally, but that shouldn't become a full-blown fight.
• If you need to leave the roleplay, PLEASE either write your character out or tell me. Ditching without saying anything can really ruin the game, especially if your character was active at the time. I won't hold it against you at all if you find you can't stay, but please don't vanish and leave us hanging!
• I expect some effort in your posts. One paragraph is fine, just try to give other characters something to react to so we can keep things moving. I understand that everyone has their own style of writing, so don't feel like you need to match mine or anyone else's.
• Player creativity is encouraged, but I ask that you don't derail the plot. This is a realistic (well, kinda >.<) island survival rp, so leave out fantasy or sci-fi plot twists, please.
Thank you for reading the rules, and if you have any questions, feel free to ask me!

the island
-
A medium-sized island that's completely uncharted. It has fresh water, wildlife, fish and edible plants, as well as a large beach, towering cliffs and swaths of rainforest. The weather is warm and summer-like, but storms here can be serious. There are enough resources to survive indefinitely, but you'll have to be smart to find and make use of them. From the looks of things, rescue operations will be taking their sweet time finding shipwreck survivors like you.
