Problem Sleuth: The RP Signup

Only join if you are familiar with the Problem Sleuth Universe. (Which means about 12 people will join...)

TEMPLATE

• Name: Must be in the style of the character's names. (Problem Sleuth, Nervous Broad, Madame Murel, and Mobster Kingpin for example...)
• Item: Mundane/Weapon. (Teddy Bear/Knife, Megaton Key/Brass Knuckles, ect., ect.)
• Vim: The character's strength and defense.
• Pulchritude: The character's charisma.
• Imaginaton: The character's ability to manipulate the imaginary world.
• Comb Rave: Go nuts.

Is there a premise here? I wouldn't mind trying my hand, but I have no idea what's going on here or how long it'd last, and a perusal of the RPG discussion forum isn't yielding any results.

The story is basically thought up as we go along. If you've read Problem Sleuth, which I assume you have, it kind of has a weird story structure, and the plot is basically "Solve puzzles and kill monsters" at the beginning, and later it's "Save the world from total destruction"

Mm. I prefer my storylines at least vaguely outlined rather than completely up in the air, so I'll pass. Thanks anyway.

I'll join if I see a better laid out premise. What is the objective, the plot? Are we reliving the events of problem sleuth or acting as alternate characters? Something entirely different?

You play as different characters or the originals, it's a continuation of Problem Sleuth, and since some people were turned off by the "make up as we go along" plot, then the plot is about someone (Who will be my PC) trying to revive Mobster Kingpen, and you have to stop hir, since that usually happens in RPGs and Adventure Games, which Problem Sleuth Parodies.

Or, to answer in order... new character trying to revive Kingpen, you must stop hir, it's a sequel, original characters welcome, and all that jazz.

I almost forgot, here's a link to the RP.

• Name: Pretentious Artist
• Item: Comb/Broadsword
• Vim: Mediocre
• Pulchritude: Pff. I'm asexual. And Anti-Social.
• Imaginaton: Powerful, but entirely ironic and derivative.
• Comb Rave: The PRETENSION DRIVES, where PA becomes too pretentious to take damage beyond a certain threshold. He's just too cool for it.

• Name: Silent Sweeper
• Item: Broom/ Shotgun
• Vim: High
• Pulchritude: Low
• Imagination: Medium
• Comb Rave: The DUST CURTAIN, where the souls of all the dust bunnies he SS has cleaned over the years come back as ghosts under his rule to crush his enemies.

What's the style of R Ping? Just regular? Or do we submit actions like the Problem Sleuth game?

Maybe submit a short descriptive paragraph then our action? Or what?

Also, how will the combat system be worked out? Like Roll to Dodge?

You submit actions like how the actions are in Problem Sleuth.

The combat system is Roll to Dodge.

AI, PA, and SS are accepted.

Should we have a discussion page?

Sure, why not?
