Which idea is best?

Tips: 0.00 INK Postby boodd9kner on Sun Jun 12, 2011 5:27 am

I am stuck on a RPG idea, and I want to know which one I should create...

1. A mansion full of vampires, Werewolves, Witches/Warlocks, shape shifters, ect.

2. A school for kid's that have powers (X-men sorta thing)

3. A wolf Pack

Which one?

I like the 2nd option the best, and would love to join a RP such as that.
Like Neopets, but want something better? Tell them 873 sent you! :}

I'm sorry if I'm dashing your hopes and dreams, but I think all three ideas are overused on this site. I ignore any romance, school, vampire and wolf RPs at all costs because of that. We need more original ideas around here.
Once again I'm sorry to insulted you.
“I have wrestled with death. It is the most unexciting contest you can imagine. It takes place in an impalpable greyness, with nothing underfoot, with nothing around, without spectators, without clamour, without glory, without the great desire of victory, without the great fear of defeat, in a sickly atmosphere of tepid scepticism, without much belief in your own right, and still less in that of your adversary.”
― Joseph Conrad

If you make that third idea, I will murder you where you sleep, and don't think I won't find it.

(Wild animal RPs in general have that effect on me.)

First one might be interesting if you can come up with a REALLY good reason why the characters would be under the same roof and not want to kill each other...perhaps they have a common enemy? It would be an interesting take on a post-apocalypse or rebellion plot, where evil people must struggle to survive against an overwhelming force for good in the world.

All of them sound incredibly cliche, noobish, and way overused on this site alone. If you can pull them off right, go ahead, but I'd try to come up with some other ideas.

The last would rock if, instead of plain wolves, you all happened to be Red Talons or Predator Kings.
