INTEREST CHECK

Interest Check


Hello and welcome to our interest check for Subdivided, an upcoming murdergame set to open June 1st. This will be an elements game intended to accommodate no more than 40 players.

Upon awakening in a place where the darkness touches the light, all participants will find themselves scattered among a quaint village. Dotted with trees, a small pond and sturdy little houses, this place has hardly any modern amenities yet brings all of the comforts of home with it. Though there are four pathways out of the village, all will feel compelled to walk a set path toward a large meeting hall.

Settled beneath a sakura tree just outside of this hall are two hooded figures, a sun stitched on one and a moon on the other. Equipped with a key and a scroll for each participant, they hardly wait for the last person to arrive before they greet everyone quite pleasantly. Despite their calm demeanors, these figures are quick to explain that this is the heart of all worlds. It's a place where a new core of the universe is being housed, but now finds itself under a threat of corruption that will slowly unravel the threads of other worlds.

"Each of you is a being made of darkness and of light. Both are required to win."

Some may ask themselves what, exactly, they're trying to win, but the hosts have an answer for that as well. Participants have been summoned to enter a competition to end the corruption…or unleash it. In this game, the chance to bypass laws of the universe and influence multiple worlds becomes the ultimate prize. With this in mind, the hosts only have one more question for all.

"Which path will you choose to walk?"

Subdivided is a game that deals with the four basic elements (fire, water, earth, air) and the elements of light and darkness in order to rectify the universe. All characters will not only receive a new power but they will be allowed the opportunity to take on tasks that may help or hinder their chances of survival in this setting. Likewise, characters will be challenged weekly and will have to choose if they wish to work together or against one another to find the best solution to this game.


With that introduction to pique your curiosity, here are some highlights to keep in mind:

➹ Characters will appear as if they've been pulled from their current canon point without missing a beat. They will not know how they got there at first until they learn upon game start.

➹ Tentatively there is not a current age limit being enforced for applications. This, of course, will be re-addressed on a case-by-case basis to make sure that, considering the nature of the game, player comfort isn't sacrificed in the spirit of creative freedom. Likewise, characters of any origin, shape, or form may be applied to this game, so long as there's a way that they can be killed. If you're unsure of what you may have in mind, feel free to ask!

Powers will be nerfed upon a character's arrival into the contest's setting, but they'll be assigned something new and fun to experiment with.

➹ Character cast caps are set at four per canon.

➹ While we have a rolling mafia in place, we will also be having murder proposals open for characters to kill at any given week. Being a murdergame, incentives and even explicit bribes may be offered to the characters at various opportunities to motivate them into spilling blood. OOCly, we may be calling for volunteers to keep the game rolling in the case of any slow weeks.

➹ With that in mind, while it's easier to have a character that would be a little bloodthirsty and ready to kill, this is not entirely necessary! Characters should have some negative qualities to draw from, but pures will be able to murder just as well as antagonists.

I dead-ass forgot there was a first xillia game so that says something and now I'm curious how different babier Julius is from other Julius

like I said to you and Trav in the plurk we can work with time stuff if you need to but it's entirely up to you! It'd be fun to have you this round if you can make it!

well,,,,

much less nice for one???

and way more spoilery technically even if literally all of it is without context. like if adult julius is the minimum spoiler version then babier is all the [REDACTED]s in a secret agent SCP report where nothing makes sense anyway and literally none of it has anything to do with anything ever because secret agent tomato thank niji's fucking shitposts i cry every time, but i mean he's technically spoilery only because he's backstory??? god why did i ramble about a secret agent SCP tangent I'm so tired

but i guess the best way to describe him is that if other julius is an old and tired golden retriever who loves people and is doing his best then babier is the hissing angry drenched kitten you found in a box on the side of the street |D;;;
