It's not easy being evil... (group planning/setup)
« on: February 15, 2018, 09:37:36 AM »
ATTENTION VILLAINS!

Are you tired of the "goods" and the "grays" getting the spotlight?
Are you ready to turn scheming and plotting into sinister activity?
Do you long to be more, to do more, to unleash the evil in your soul?


If so, HAVE WE GOT A GROUP FOR YOU!


This thread is for all the aspiring Roman Torchwicks, Neos, Emeralds, Mercurys, and yes, even Cinders -- if you have an evil character (or are interested in making one), you are officially welcomed to be part of the creation of this underworld organization. This is not technically a Worldbuild (at least not yet, as this is still very much in the concept phase -- are Worldbuilds even reopened?), more like a brainstorming and interest-gauging thread. The overall concept is simple: give true villain characters (who aren't associated with the White Fang, that is) something to do in-RP beyond serve as a boss / midboss in the occasional battle or act as a plot device for the "good guys". In essence, we'd be offering both social and mission threads for baddies, all within the in-story context of a criminal confederation taking on jobs and pursuing their own agendas.

Instead of simply launching a fully formed group concept myself, I figured it'd be best to reach out to those interested for feedback and ideas regarding everything from name and themes to roles, ranks, rewards, etc. I have a general concept -- using my character Maria Sanguine as a kind of "help wanted agency" to offer up evil missions to members of our consortium -- but I feel like effective evil organizing also means giving all the plotters, schemers, ner-do-wells, and aspiring evil overlords involved a voice in the process.

So, if you have a nefarious character (or intend to make one), a suggestion, or even just an evil laugh that you really, really wanna belt out, feel free to post here! All insidious contributions are welcome!

Well Riven, we talked about this and you know I'm 100% on board and already have a character ready for this very purpose that is only waiting for reviews. So once Shoko-la Bitter (http://rwby-rpg.rwbyfanon.com/index.php?topic=1346.0, here is the link in case someone wants to take a look at her) gets approved I'll be more than happy to have her join this group!

Yup, that was the title inspiration! ;D

Ok, it looks like we have enough interest to get things started. I'll set up a Discord chat for discussing ideas & stylistics and PM the link to everyone who's posted thusfar.

Consider me interested. I thought about doing something similar before, but now that its actually happening, I'd love to jump on board.
Perhaps hopeless isn't a place, nothing but a state of mind.
They told me once "Don't trust the moon. She's always changing. The shores bend and break for her, and she begs to be loved."
But nothing here is as it seems...

Unfortunately, this project seems to have died out on a large scale at least for now. But it seems a pity to have all these evil characters around with nothing to do, so instead of starting big how about something on a smaller scale? Just some encounters, business dealings, underworld fights, there is ample choice. And we go from there.
