Sure go ahead. I'm the GM but since Jack made it only he accept profiles. Got any questions?
We help the multi-nationals
when they cry out protect us.
The locals scream and shout a bit,
but we don’t let that affect us.
We’re here to lend a helping hand
in case they don’t elect us.
How dare they buy our products
yet still they don’t respect us.

Oh wow, you guys handle plagiarism like my Lit teacher last year.

That said, given the chance, I would be honored if you would reserve a spot for me in your roleplay, provided that they aren't all already taken.
From the depths, I return!

I don't understand only thing used is setting. So how is this plagiarism?

Nice, nice, nice! This is the first time I've seen a Lovecraftian role-play on this site, and I'd love to join! I'll start writing a character sheet ASAP.

Rockerr read the thread linked to, it has very important rule.

I best post it here.

Roleplayers requires approval from both Jack_Benimble and Rulke (me) to join. Each candidate must provide an example new or old of their writing. Dedication is essential so don't join unless you know you can stick in.

So this is before ya post Character sheet.

Okay :)

Thank you.

I'm hoping that Cypher see's this too.

Also you have two chances one using old piece, and one writing in character.

So good luck :).

Now this certainly seems like a treat, but may I be so bold to ask how quickly the roleplay might move along? I can manage posting on the weekend, but Mondays through Thursdays are full for studying. I hope that question does not make me seem inept, but you do have a rule that mentions staying in for the long haul for this roleplay, and this appears to be a good oppotunity to broaden my horizens that I do not want to miss.

This won't move too fast. I know as Lovecraft isn't an easy going roleplay, we'll move at steady pace, but also pretty slow.

Thank you for the expedient reply to my inquiry. I think it would be best for me to draft a post that would seem more appropriate for this genre of roleplay, I fear that other roleplays I have participated in are very different from this one, and I should have something for you to judge by tomorrow evening.

Great, remember to post it here.

miskatonic-university-the-nameless-fog-people-needed-t60282.html

Also some factors, firstly your character will either die or go insane. Your choice. Secondly you choose when they do in roleplay and tell us plan. Thirdly your character has to be from another state as anyone in Arkham would avoid Miskatonic like the plague.

Question! How detailed do you want our character profiles to be? Sketchy and mysterious due to already been accepted? Detailed and long? Or however we like? Just I sometimes suck at character sheets except for the basics as I develop my characters IC and things change from when I first imagine them and write up the character sheets.

Just want to know before I send something in that you find too brief/long.

History should be the longest thing in the profile. Other than that length is up to ya. :)

I guess it would be appropriate right to ask when we may expect to start? No pressure, it's just that I had joined another roleplay not too long ago that seemed to flounder when we tried to start, despite the potential that it had and the dedication of the roleplayers who started.
