Time Warp

Time Warp

0 INK

A group of people have been accidentally sent into the past, and must learn how to survive.

1,049 readers have visited Time Warp since Crystal Flamedance created it.

Introduction

The year is 2643. A group of people have volunteered to test the new time machine; set to put them back only a few hours. Any bit of technology is taken from then, in case it interferes with the machine. Anything considered a weapon was taken because...well, for obvious reasons; don't need people dying. That's not to say a weapon could be hidden; they didn't look that closely. At first. It looks like it works. They step into the machine, lights flash, and they all black out.

When they wake up, they found themselves in a strange forest. As they look around, they find that none of them recognize the area, and assume it transported them. However, after wandering around and finding nothing but more forest, they question exactly what happened.


In a much older time, a much smaller group is in training, sparring against each other. All are distracted by the sudden light a little ways away. After a moment of debate, they start walking towards the light, but by the time they get there, the group is gone. They split, and search for whatever caused the light.

Now, stuck in the past, they have to learn how to survive in this time… while, at the same time, try to find their way back to their own time. But a few things have apparently changed. In the past, elves and magic exist… things that, in the future, and believed to only be myth. So what happens now that they’ve been proven wrong? Now that they’re in a different time… that seems like a different world? Now that they actually have to fight for survival?

But the biggest problem? There was a reason they were out training; creatures have suddenly started rising in numbers, and are attacking without restraint. Now they really have to fight to survive… especially when they’re asked to help!

Toggle Rules

1) No godmodding.

2) If you came through the time machine, you are human. You can only be a different race if you are from the past.

3) You can create multiple characters, but only if you know you can keep up with the characters.

4) Characters can die, but only by consent of the creator of the character, the one who kills the character, and me (even if you both agree, let me know before it actually plays out unless it's being played as an NPC).

5) Romance is allowed, but keep it pg.

6) Spells can be cast… but they take a lot of energy, and so one cannot cast too many without rest in between; though the amount of energy depends on how simple or complex the spell is.

7) Let me know if you are going to be unable to post for a while… or if you are just going to drop out. That way, I can find some reason for your character to be gone.

8) Before the volunteers went into the machine, any weapons and technology was taken away, just in case it would affect the experiment. So they do not have them when they’re in the past.

9) Please don’t just up and leave; let me know if you are quitting the rp, or just not going to be able to be posting for a while. We’ll find some reason for your character to disappear for a while.

10) …Not really a rule… but I will send a pm to let you know that your character has been accepted; I will do this for each character you make.

Most recent OOC posts in Time Warp

Re: [OOC] Time Warp

Well I finally got something up. I might post for Scott tomorrow.

I thought I'd post for Scott, but apparently it's not happening.

Re: [OOC] Time Warp

I know...it's getting a little hard to come up with something to post. I'm trying to come up with something to post, myself, really.

Re: [OOC] Time Warp

I'm sorry I haven't posted in a while, but I really don't know what to do with Jacarta and Scott right now.

Re: [OOC] Time Warp

That makes sense; sounds like a good idea to me. We'll just have to be patient to see both, I guess. :) That's okay.

Re: [OOC] Time Warp

I think it will take some time for me to be completely comfortable with Scott, so it would be best to post for both of them when I have a lot of time on my hands, like my day off work on Sunday. In between times, I think I'll do one or the other. Flickery thinks I do a good job though, and I won't let them down. Today I played Scott. Tomorrow evening I'll do either another one for him or something for Jacarta.

Re: [OOC] Time Warp

Well...at least you did post. You could probably work on another post for your main character the next time you have the chance. ...If you have enough time, anyway. :P

Re: [OOC] Time Warp

I can't believe it took me an hour to write such a short post, and now I have no time to make it longer or post for my regular character.

Re: [OOC] Time Warp

Yeah, no problem; always like to accept new characters. :P

Re: [OOC] Time Warp

thanks for accepting my profile :) i'm working on a post as we speak!

Re: [OOC] Time Warp

We have a new character in the rp. Username: CrowboyToTheRescue

Re: [OOC] Time Warp

Hmm...well...I don't think it matters much. I don't know how to claim a someone else's character, either. We may just have to leave it as it is, and let the others know that you are playing his character. Because I really can't figure this out...

Re: [OOC] Time Warp

It really is good. I just got flickery's answer and some excellent guidelines on how I can use him. It will be a lot of fun, just you wait! As soon as I can figure out how to claim him.

Re: [OOC] Time Warp

Alright; sounds good to me.

Re: [OOC] Time Warp

Jacarta will only state her own reasons, and doesn't care what anyone else thinks, which makes her no way suited to be in charge of anything.

I think I'll send flickery a pm to ask for advice on using his character and then get started with him. It may take a few days, but as soon as possible, I'll get back on that.

Re: [OOC] Time Warp

It was a shame to lose him since it seemed he was going to be a real main character and leader of the future folks group. If you could take his char over that would be awesome! Of course only if you felt comfortable with it ^_^ If not then I'll edit my post from directing a question to him to directing it to you :)

Re: [OOC] Time Warp

I have no problem with male characters, and actually I'm used to playing male characters. Too many role-plays I've seen are flooded with girl characters and have almost no guy characters. The worst episode of this I've seen was a Warrior cats role-play where an entire clan was she-cats and kits. Umm... How exactly do you have kits without male cats? It was nice to play my own gender in this one.

The reason why I'm nervous about taking over another person's character, is that I don't think I'd be able to compare to the original creator in portraying that character. This is the same reason I generally don't write fanfic either. I may make an exception in this case, since I really don't want to lose him, but I'd have to do some research. His description says his family are all history buffs.

Re: [OOC] Time Warp

Ah...I would...but playing male characters is definitely not my forte...

Re: [OOC] Time Warp

Unless someone is willing to take over the character, but personally I'm a bit nervous about attempting such a thing.

Re: [OOC] Time Warp

I know...but he said he was much too busy to keep up...so this is what we're left with. *sigh*

Re: [OOC] Time Warp

That makes me sad. He would have been a great leader of the others.
