Definitely not...

They're the ones who are all around us, part of a last thread holding the end back. They just don't know that. Yet. Welcome to Eidolon City, a place of the highest heights and the lowest lows. Where crime and corruption are more commonplace than morality and decency. Where figures from humanity's collective unconscious roam the streets, playing their own roles in events.

We're looking for players interested in a game that's something different from the norm, an altered take on a lot of different concepts. We've incorporated fairytales, mythology, literary figures and dreams, putting them into a noir setting full of mafia families and corrupt city officials.

Eidolon City is an original character game set in the noir world of a 1940s US City. A world of crooked cops and mob rule, reluctant heroes and femme fatales. To the residents of Eidolon City the daily drama that surrounds them is just part and parcel of their lives.

But there is more to the City than what it seems. Because what the residents of Eidolon City do not realise is that the City, in fact the whole world they live in, is not real. Eidolon City is an illusion, and they - or at least some of them - are dreaming. Maybe the dreamers are the lucky ones. Not everyone in Eidolon City is merely dreaming. - some of them are the invention of that dream. Some of the residents of Eidolon City are fantasies given breath. They are the manifestations of myths, of stories, of ideals, even if they don't know it. None in Eidolon City know the dream for what it is - and they also don't know that one day the illusion may fracture and the dreamers may start to wake up - and some of them may disappear forever.

~*~*~*~

Eidolon City is a new game that started this summer! We're looking for a wide range of characters to help fill the city. We're a friendly, free-form game with an emphasis on character interaction and relationships, though the game will also run regular, over-arcing plots to keep things interesting!

We are an original character game and we encourage in game connections with other characters. We have a list of character suggestions and wanted characters here.

Also, to help people who may find the application process daunting or may be unsure about creating an original character from scratch, some of our players have created 'skeleton characters' - these are unplayed, original characters created especially for the game and for other people to play. You can view the list of skeleton characters here, along with the short form application to go with these.

When you dream, what do you see?

Welcome to Eidolon City - a place of contrasts, where nothing is quite what it seems and everyone has a goal. For some, that goal is simple: survival. For others: to succeed. To climb over the rest and come out on top. To be the next to rule.

Do you have what it takes? Can you take up the challenge? Where will you place yourself, in the fight where the easy path isn't the path of 'good' and 'right' - in a city where two opposing mob families are locked in an eternal battle for supremacy and think nothing of crushing anyone and everyone who gets in their way, no matter who they are. Being on the side of right can prove to be very bad for your health.
~*~*~*~*~

Eidolon City is a new game that opened recently! We are looking for a range of players, but currently we're mostly looking for members of the two mob factions which form the basis of the game! We have a few, but at the moment, we've got more cops, so mafia people, we need you!! There are lots of players looking for connections with theirs, join today!

We're also looking for general cityfolk and have an active wanted list created by our players looking for in game connections, so it's easy to create characters who'll have an automatic in!!

What if...

What if the only life you had ever known, wasn't the only life you had ever had?
What if really you were just a figment of someone's imagination?
What if everything you are wasn't real?

Welcome to Eidolon City - where nothing is really what it seems, where events seem to happen around you and a face in the crowd is never just a face in the crowd. Where the world is just that little bit too real. A world of extremes - the wealth, the poverty, the corruption. Where mob families have their fingers in every pie and innocence is a rarity.

Eidolon City is a noir world, set in the early twentieth century - or so it seems. To those observing, nothing is quite right, yet its citizens notice no difference. For them, this is the only world they have ever known - in all it's dark and seedy glory.

A world where two major mob families hold sway, where crooked cops lurk on every corner and private investigators run their own show. Where nightclub singers use their talent to claw their way out of the gutters of homelessness and the underbelly of society live by their own rules.

Eidolon City, where life is hard, harsh and dramatic. Where some people even seem to be living manifestations of old tales and myths.

And that is because they are.

That is because nothing in Eidolon City is what it seems.

That is because the whole place, the entire world it is in, is an illusion.

Nightmare Town: a contemporary original character noir-inspired RPG


[info]livinginizzard
[info]oldschoolrp

Welcome to Nightmare Town
A noir-inspired original character RPG


Izzard, Nevada springs out of the desert at the junction of US Highway 6 and I-95. It's a small town with a big secret.

A few weeks ago, San Francisco-based insurance claims investigator Owen Thursby disappeared without a trace. Everyone in Izzard could have a reason to want him gone; but to the town's relief, Sheriff Harry Quinlan detained mechanic Scotty Threefall as a 'person of interest'. There's pressure on the sheriff to close the case quickly and everyone is interested in having this little mess go away. But Scotty hasn't been charged. And there's a nosy reporter who keeps asking questions. Tension is building. Tempers are beginning to fray. This little piece of nowhere between Las Vegas and San Francisco is heading for a very big showdown.

Game opens soon! Now accepting applications!

Wanted Characters: The Book Keeper, The Casino Owner, The Dreamer, The Drug Dealer, The Heiress, The Hustler, The Innkeeper, The Madam, The Stripper, The Town Manager and more.

What role do you have in the disappearance of Owen Thursby?
