(Sci-Fi/Fantasy) ALPHA
The ALPHA-Verse, an alternate universe to our own. Decades ago, nuclear war broke out on Earth, killing of almost the entire population.
Five years from the present day: A mysterious flying ship/city, known as the SS Jabberwocky, appeared. It did not come alone, as people from other alternate universes, known as Alts, started appearing from a strange machine from the ship, completely confused by where they were and how they got there. These people would soon encounter the ship's A.I.s, who would explain the situation to them.
Present day: The city has begun to thrive, as more Alts have begun to show up from different universes. The Alts had discovered a common similarity among them: That before they showed up in the ALPHA-Verse, they all had a strong desire to start their lives over. Seeing this new universe, and strange ship, as a bizzare second chance, they had begun to live in the city, following the guidelines, that the A.I.s had been programmed to give, as the basic laws of the city.
You are a fairly new resident to the ALPHA-Verse, and ship, only having been around for about a month at most. It is now up to you about what to do with your life. You could try discovering the secret behind the mysterious, and unseen, Captains, who seem to control where it goes. You could help in the capture of Ares, a lone vigilante, who is almost as big of a enigma as the Cptain. Or you could sit at home and read the news-paper.
The choice is yours! (Or some cliche line like that...)
---
Ok, I'm going to be running this RP a little diffrently then most. I'm going to give you guys a lot of freedom in what you do (please keep it realistic), but I control everything else, and how they will react, so depending on one characters actions, the results could be be good, bad, or somewhere in between for your character.
NPCs are going to play a big part in this, hence I will be RPing as all of them, including some key characters to the story. Interaction with them is highly encouraged.
Two final things: All sub-plots must be cleared by me first before you can start them, and I will have the final say in all disputes, and/or matters relating to the RP.

Re: (Sci-Fi/Fantasy) ALPHA
I have an objection. If someone finds your judgement wrong, and can support reasons for it that you don't have excuses for, then we should have the ability to change it.
I don't always trust your judgement all the time.
Also, the NPCs can't just be the same character with different physical features. That makes for a lame and rather annoying RP. I want to be able to see different characters react differently to the same scenario, unlike all your others. Also, if you're going to be in charge if this RP, then you'll need to get over your fear of RPing bad guys.
If you don't wuss out, this could actually be interesting, and I'd participate. ;P

Guessing here.
A.) People are going to be brainwashed to have the same personality.
B.) All the bad guys are going to turn good.

Re: (Sci-Fi/Fantasy) ALPHA
...You're going to have to be more specific.
Do you mean the mind control thing, or the Heel Face Turn thing?

Re: (Sci-Fi/Fantasy) ALPHA
If you guys give me good reasoning after my final call, I'll think about reconsidering.
And again, the NPCs are a very important part of this, so don't worry about them acting the same...

No. That essentially allows you to be a dictator. If enough people disagree with you, and you can justify your actions, it will be changed. That's how it is for everyone, you are no exception, so get over it.

Re: (Sci-Fi/Fantasy) ALPHA
Suvi, the main reason the final call goes to me, is because I'm the one with the whole picture. It's my job to keep track of every last detail you guys will do, and how it will affect the story.
You guys, the RPers, are the players, your job is to figure out the story as we go along, as I will not be revealing much about the story outside of the RP unless it's important. So I'm the only one who will know the whole picture, and when I make a call that's different then what you believe, you know it will be for a good reason.

Re: (Sci-Fi/Fantasy) ALPHA
That's how all well-planned RPs work. For example, a character like Kira cannot suddenly go on a homicidal rampage for no reason. You must be able to give reasons why they went on a homicidal rampage.

Re: (Sci-Fi/Fantasy) ALPHA
I only make the calls concerning the RP, not the calls on how you're characters act.
...Although I will make callsconcerning them if they do something unrealistic, or they become OP.

I was using Kira's personality as an example, like if you had an NPC with a personality similar to Kira's.

Re: (Sci-Fi/Fantasy) ALPHA
Suvi, if a NPC went on a psychotic rampage, it's not my job to explain why, but your character's job to figure out why they did it. In this RP, you have to work, and figure out the answers yourselves.
As I said earlier, the NPCs, and the interactions with them, will play a big part in this RP.

Fair enough, then.
If you don't like how I run things, you don't have to participate.

Re: (Sci-Fi/Fantasy) ALPHA
As I mentioned in the chat, I'm interested. Should be pretty cool, I think~
Re: (Sci-Fi/Fantasy) ALPHA
K, I think we need one or two more people till we can properly get started.
