Setting
A nice tropical island where you can have fun under the sun!
Plot
Welcome to Paradise, a tropical island where you can spend your days soaking under the sun. There are many things to do: play volleyball, swim, spend the day at the natural mountain spring, get refreshing beverages at the tiki bar, enjoy wonderful shows, karaoke, and much more! However, the players have woken up in a room with no recollection of anything prior to waking up, besides who they are. Even stranger, they all have woken up with strange powers: strength, magic, levitation, mind-reading, etc. However, once the doors open and they are allowed to roam the now abandoned island, it doesn't seem too bad. Until the mastermind makes an announcement. There is a player tower for each player. Each floor is unlocked either by getting away with murder (unlocks your own) or catching the culprit (unlocks all of the innocent's floor). Each floor holds a hint at to the character's past. However, the powers come with a catch. They have some pretty nasty side-effects that worsen as time goes on. So, a medication is on each floor that will help counter-act that. But, be careful. If you wait too long, some of these problems could be permanent. Of course, there are some hidden throughout the island. But, they are scarce and difficult to find. Plus, some of them can be risky to get to. Other than that, you are free to enjoy your stay in Paradise!
Base Rules
I will be hosting under base MMG rules.
Season Rules
1) Every player will receive a power!
2) Every power comes with a side effect that worsens over time.
3) There is a medicine that will relieve the side effects.
4) Wait too long to take your medication and you will suffer permanent side effects and even death!
5) Each player will have a player tower that only they can access.
6) Each tower will begin with the first floor unlocked.
7) Each floor of the tower will have a medication and hints to their past.
8) If a murder is committed, there will be a trial.
9) During the trial, everyone will decide on one person to execute.
10) If the murderer gets away, they will have a floor unlocked.
11) If the murderer is executed, everyone else will have a floor unlocked.
12) Upon death, the front door of your tower will become unlocked, allowing others to look inside. However, any locked floors will remained locked permanently.
13) You may only commit two murders at a time. They will still count as separate murders, but there will only be one trial. This will unlock two floors if you manage to get away with it. However, if the murderer is executed, everyone else will still only unlock one floor.
14) There are also a few medications hidden around the island if you want to look for them.
15) After the end of each session, an event will be held to win a medication.
16) There can only be one winner per event. If there is a tie, I will decide who gets the medication.
17) Destruction of cameras, speakers, televisions, or any other important equipment will result in severe punishment!
18) Enjoy your stay in Paradise!
Character Creation
Choose whatever you want. But, choose someone whose powers have not been given to them yet (because plot). However, when you make your application, you can say what power you most desire, which I will base your power off of. I would prefer you to make your applications early since there is individual plot and player towers I must construct.
Powers/Abilities
You will have a power that you request. However, they have side-effects. There are medications to treat the side-effects, but the side-effects worsen over time. Wait too long and you will face permanent problems. And eventually death...
Player Towers
Each player will have a tower that only they can access. They will have their basic first floor already unlocked for them. To unlock further floors, they must commit a murder and get away with it. However, if the culprit is executed, everyone else gets a floor unlocked. Each floor holds a medication that you so desperately need...along with answers to your past. Also, upon your death, your house will become unlocked to the public, however any floors you haven't unlocked yet will forever remain locked.
Murder vs Plot
Murder is the most direct way to obtain medicine and plot. Of course, if you're willing to explore the island some, you may find some interesting things hidden...and I don't just mean meds.
Events
I am still undecided on this one. If I do it, then every time the session ends, there will be an event of sorts in the main plaza. These will more than likely end up being puzzles or something you can solve for a medication. There can only be ONE winner per event.
Weight
One thing I will be changing this season is that not only can you only carry up to 5 weight, you must also tell me how you carry it/where you put it.
AFK
Depending on activity, I may or may not try AFK again. I am trying to find a different job (maybe a weekend one) to open up my evenings to regular hosting times.
Endings
Tropical Survivor: ?
Trouble In Paradise: ?
Forgot To Take Your Meds: Fail the season due to the last person(s) dying from not taking their medication!
Booby Traps: Fail the season due to the last person(s) dying from environmental reasons!
Destruction of Property: Fail the season due to the last person(s) dying due to breaking the rules.
