Introduction

You are a just arrived new tenant of this small Island all you know about it is that no one ever makes it past their sentencing time, it is hot and you are dying of thirst or at least you think you are dying of thirst. You have been sentence here for a year for a crime you did not or did commit. You were sent here by default of a court system and a crazy old judge who’s supposed to have retired some years ago but never did.

You used to be a, writer, actor, teacher, politician, news reporter, gang member, whatever you used to be the point is this, you are no longer the person you were when you left the main land. With no more than 200 dollars, a blanket and a container of water and a day’s ration of food you are excepted to last however long your sentencing is, alone, friendless, unprotected by loved ones or friends. If you had any and they were brought by to this Island they are no longer your friend.

Your goal is to survive, make life possible, if possible continue with your old career if you weren’t guilty, but doing that you must first find civilization. And if it is real can you find it? The Question is do you want to find it or do you want civilization to find you? What awaits you in this new civilization? The only thing you have in common is your hatred for Judge Alexander whether or not you’re guilty; he ruined your way of life.

What you do not know as the character; whether or not the other person is telling you the truth of who or what they were in the past, when you meet them. Do you trust this person you’ve found and if you do why? Simply because of your common interest in getting off the Island <which is impossible at this point unless you are called for and brought back by the heavily armed boat men which all are too afraid to approach unless their names are called.>

What you do know is this… they are watching you, always watching you. Who they are you don’t know, but they have cameras, and are watching you always. It could be loved ones, it could be the police on the other side, the they could even be members on this very Island watching the people. Sending them back to the main land if they are too well behaved. A tracking device has been placed in the front of your hand, so if you stop moving the good guys will notice, but will they care? It all depends on whom they have watching your every move.

The Characters:
The Watcher
Judge Alexander
Heavily armed Guards
You

You stand before Judge Alexander as a jury comes in, they have already decided your fate from the first day they sat eyes on you, with the world the way it is now and all new rules, you close your eyes and wait for the judge to decided your fate, some have been sent free today as you watch the court house but suddenly you hear your name being spoken "YOU ARE GUILTY, I sentence you to five years on Island Marie. You are given one half hour to Devy up your belongings and find persons responsible for your finances, while on the Island, you are starting with nothing more than 200 dollars, a blanket, a pillow and a days ration of food and water." The judge hits the gavel your boyfriend, or girlfriend or significant other cries out your name and starts to cry. Your mother starts to cry as well and your father can barely look his son or daughter in the eye. Did you already prepare for the worse? Or did you leave everything undecided. Lets take a look into your life...

Just a few questions for you as you start your RP... was it raining the day you were sentence? Or was it sunny?

DreamingForever wrote:The general idea is great, but you need to add details when it comes to the introduction. You have to draw a reader in with as many details as you can possible add. Also, it helps making characters all the more easy. Another thing would be the island where it takes place. This island is the main setting and a very important part of the story, but you haven’t described it at all. I’ve no idea if its hot or cold, whether anyone still lives on said island, or how large it is, etc. The setting in this is a focal point for the roleplay.
