This is the space between worlds between plots and settings the void without defined dimensions.
Occasionally wanderers from other worlds (other rps, works of fiction, real life if you'd like) are plucked from existence to occupy this world for a time before they are sent back to their world with no memories of their time here or even any passage of time in their world. But in their fleeting time here they are able to shape this place; the slate is where all the flotsam and jetsam from other worlds end up, forgotten maguffins or characters put on busses. And it is yours to salvage, to bend to your will maybe you'll even be able to leave a lasting mark on the world if you can do that you might even save it from the oblivion entity.
You won't be alone of course, there will be others as their always are, but how you interact is your choice weather you chose to oppose their every move, align to become more powerful than ever before or change you allies day to day.
There are a few limits, these special ones, the ones with beings controlling them, just like the one pulling your strings, they are protected. While you can normally freely warp reality they are immune somehow, you can't even seem to touch them and the changes they make to the world seem somehow solid compared to the random ones without creation you may still change them but they put up a weird resistance to you power changing them will be more of a challenge.

As someone who's been involved with the pub RP several times in its lifetime and who really loves the idea behind it (the Meta RP concept) I decided to launch my own take on the idea. A lot of the rules will carry over from the pub, anyone is free to join at any times and you can play as pretty much anyone, for example you could use a character from another RP or a popular work of fiction or even just make an entirely new character all you need to is post your sheet with your first post.
The genre is essentially creativity sandbox, the world is a blank slate and you are free to take your pick from all the debris that comes over from other fictional universes to create a new world as you see fit, when just creating for yourself your powers are essentially infinite but when it comes to interacting with the creations of others your powers are more limited (to prevent one person from having total control or running fun for others). While its drop in drop out to allow things to move on when a player leaves anyone inactive for a week without prior notice will count as dropped out and their creations will lose protection allowing active players to change them.
An important note is that this game is not to be considered cannon by any other RP (unless of course an RP's gm actually says so) you character will essentially become an alternate universe version of themselves and have no effect on the rp they've come from (e.g you can't take anything you make her back). They may also have lost awareness of their universe/ not remember who they were.
I'm also limiting each player to one active character at a time to prevent confusion. The focus of the game is really on two aspects, creativity and character interaction.
The only other rules that apply are these
1-No controlling other people's characters 2-Be interesting 3-Don't be a meanie
As always any questions criticism or interest is welcome. I'll be making an opening post tomorrow but I've no problem with other people starting without me, I'll be acting as GM but only in a referee capacity I won't be controlling your actions so the thread is now open. If you want to ask questions now I'll ask you use spoilers to separate it from the game and I'll be responding as soon as I can.
Equestria, Avatar Adventure Universe Following his imprisonment here by the Heroes, Villain Rugal Bernstein spent countless hours researching a way to escape and regain his former body. He then learned of a pocket world, a Blank State in-between his world and others. Using the Same procedure used to bring him to the world of "We are our Avatars", He travelled to this new world as a stepping stone to his Earth and revenge. *** The Blank State Rugal awoke in a white space, totally devoid of existence other then him. He checked himself, he Finally was free from the Pony Curse put upon him. He smiled and plotted his next move.
Voyager found itself cast out into the void. The world it used to occupy had moved on without it, slipped out from under legs (maybe tripod would be a better word). Voyager resembled an old satellite but there was something more something green and fleshy haphazardly blended into the machine works.
Voyager fired up its boosters, that they worked here indicated there was air but the voyager wasn't registering any. Maybe things like air didn't matter here.
It was then voyager noticed the other it resembled the scientists.
"Creator?
Scanning..."
There was a shining blue light that swept over Rugal. Not a single test brought back any results, no heat signature, nothing electromagnetic no gravity field.
"Query, why don't you exist?"
In the back of its mind Voyager started anticipating the new place, in its quest to find new life Voyager had been all over the place seen planets stars and everything between. A nostalgia sub routine booted up. It remembered the traces of life it had found on the red world.
All of a sudden an orange blob like creature was stitched into flesh from the void. A green tentacle wormed its way from Voyager to the new being giving it a prod. The orange thing reacted, tried to avoid the Voyager.
The possibility was too much to bear Voyager had to know. "Scanning...
Life confirmed" YYYYYAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYY
Maybe the Voyager's search was over I mean who needed to find life when you could create it.
Rugal looked on at the strange blob and the Voyager. "What?...How is it you can d-" Then it hit him, an Idea. As a test, he thought about his pet panther Rodem. A Large black panther soon appeared from nothing and playfully leapt at Rugal. "Rodem! Did you miss me?" He cooed as he played with Rodem like one would do with a pet cat. Ideas and possibly schemes filled his mind.
Richardson sighed and pulled the 66th pile of paperwork over to begin signing, reaching for another glass of bourbon when the intercom cut in. "Sir, we need you up here, something just opened up in front of us". "We always have to call it something dont we"? "I'll be there immediately".
As he walked towards the lift the ship suddenly shook violently "The hell is that!?" "Whatever it is, it's spewing out lightning and sucking us in! Brace for impact!!".
Richardson sprinted for the bridge, slicing into the lift shaft and climbing up. When he reached the bridge he saw it: a rift just big enough for the ship to pass through.
"Sir we're abandoning ship! Get out of here!" "I'll try to slow the ship, you all get off now while you still can".
As the escape pods, fighters, jets and VTOLs scattered form the ship, Richardson attempted to reverse the engines to give everone enough time to evacuate, he barely bought enough time.
"I swear if there is an afterlife I'm finding the man who invented the convention of a captain going down with his ship and force-feeding him a Raging Sto-". The ship was pulled into the Blank Slate.
The Blank State
As he pulled himself up, he saw nothing outside the windows, just a vast blank expanse.
Rugal watched as now a airship was brought before him. Great...my leap must've damaged space/time...Again... He and Rodem proceeded on-board and began to look for anything he could use.
Rugal and Rodem began to search the Ship for weapons to use in Rugal's Home-world. He heard the footsteps, most likely just a crew member, he'll rip his spine out later.
Can I smell carrots? Richardson stopped. That could be anyone,I wonder if I could get the cameras to work and find out who that is out there?. Richardson strolled towards the surveillance room. "Now to find out who that is..........great, I'm now talking to myself. " He switched on the screens.
"Huh...Rodem, you hear that?..." Rugal asked, not excepting an answer. "Ah Christ, What kind of Weapons are These?! That one is unbalanced, no firing pin in that, Who owns this damn thing?..."
He was just about to punch through the last door when he froze. Think Nicholas, for all you know, you're in a different universe, that could be a completely different person out there. . He slowed and opened the door, walking casually.
"Hello Sir, may I ask what your business is on my dead ship?
"Yeah, you can crawl into a corner and die, save me the trouble and tell me who on earth thought a suppressed Uzi would be a good side-arm, as a Weapons retailer/God, I would like to re-educate him." Rugal answered as Rodem growled at Richardson
ooc: I'm thinking of joining in a day or so, but, are you allowed to bring others that associate with your character into this realm too? e.g. My character has a flying castle staff with knights, may I bring it?
Well his attitude hasn't changed, that's for sure."Easy there mate, I'm just trying to find out where we are." Richardson moved his hand towards his sabre.
Sablestick: ooc: I'm thinking of joining in a day or so, but, are you allowed to bring others that associate with your character into this realm too? e.g. My character has a flying castle staff with knights, may I bring it?
Voyager had been following the other curious to see what they were; luckily they seemed too preoccupied to notice the repeated scans. None of them brought up any life signs what so ever. Voyager had never questioned its scanners before but something wasn't right deeply wrong maybe the scanners had malfunctioned. That didn't stop it scanning the ship though, checking every inch for life signs. None came up with anything. Voyager armed its electrostatic defence systems just in case. The life it had created hadn't lasted long; Voyager had felt genuine sadness when it stopped (somehow) would have to conduct further tests. Maybe extending greeting to the others would yield answers. "Greeting Stating identity Voyager 23571113 Query Identity?"
Richardson's eyes began to glow, a flaming aura started fo form around his feet, while an aura formed around his sabre as he unsheathed it. "I don't respond well to threats."
The second Richardson attacked, Rugal parried the Blade with his hands and stuck on the side of the neck, OH-KO'ing Richardson. "Pffff...I've killed Angels you know..." He sighed as he left the airship with Rodem.
OOC: Sorry, I've still not fathomed spoiler tags but you can be any OC from any uninverse is my understanding of this, right? Providing of course you're not too over-powered.
A massive explosion formed, though it passed through what was visible of the void, it did not shape it, nor did it alter itself for a while. Instead it simply hung suspended in midspace for while only mere seconds, seemed like an eternity to those watching. It gleamed a brilliant maroon and was nearly blinding to look at. Then, the mass converged together into a being that while anthropomorphic, verged on the uncanny valley with it's continual form alterations and no face to speak of. It still glowed the same odd maroon color with energy flowing through it. What seemed to be eyes formed on is face, though they were closed. From seemingly nowhere, metal began to materialize around it forming gauntlets, a chest plate and a helmet. The form morphing ceased to a degree around the armor like structures and only within the creases could any movement be seen. Its eyes opened.
The set up
This is the space between worlds between plots and settings the void without defined dimensions.
Occasionally wanderers from other worlds (other rps, works of fiction, real life if you'd like) are plucked from existence to occupy this world for a time before they are sent back to their world with no memories of their time here or even any passage of time in their world.
But in their fleeting time here they are able to shape this place; the slate is where all the
flotsam and jetsam from other worlds end up, forgotten maguffins or characters put on busses.
And it is yours to salvage, to bend to your will maybe you'll even be able to leave a lasting mark on the world if you can do that you might even save it from the oblivion entity.
You won't be alone of course, there will be others as their always are, but how you interact is your choice weather you chose to oppose their every move, align to become more powerful than ever before or change you allies day to day.
