Sign Up: Escape the Manor of Sleep

[Ωmega]

~*Approved*~

**RPG based on Fatal Frame 3: The Tourmented**

History of RP:

In a secluded mountain area, there laid a manor owned by the Kuze family. In this manor, a ritual took place, the Tattoo ritual, which involved the Tattooed Shrine Maiden. It is said that dreams of lost loved ones cause ill to the world, and only the shrine maiden can prevent that ill from coming. People come and give their pain to the shrine maiden by having the ‘engravers’ tattoo her with a snake and holly. She is then sent to the Hanging Prison where she lays with the Holy Mirror. The mirror is her love, which she must shatter (by looking into it), and sever all ties to this world. She is then moved to the Thorn Shrine, where she is nailed into place, by the four pacifiers, should she stir from her eternal sleep. Before the ritual could commence, the priestess witness her lover’s death, causing the ritual to fail and spreading ill upon the manor.

It is said that many have had a dream of entering the manor, the Manor of Sleep, after loosing a loved one. The dream consumes them, and after a few months they turn to ash. It is also said that to follow the dead inside, is to give up your life. Is there a way to survive? How do you escape your worst nightmare?

**NOTE: Only I will be playing ghost roles. You MUST start in the Manor as a MORTAL HUMAN. If youd like, start off normal and then PM me if you wish to die and become a ghost. But you MUST PM me first.**
*There will be other ghosts (needle woman, Kuze family head, etc) however, they wont have a major role in the RPG, therefore they have no character sheets.*

Please refer to the Manor map when role playing. Ive also included some general FF3 info for those who want to read a bit more histroy on the concept of the story.

[Ωmega]

Yeah, the link was removed. I'll see if I can find one from the game's strategy guide.
Also, the Manor of Sleep is well...located in your dreams. The manor appears to you after the loss of a loved one, whos soul is now trapped inside the manor.

[Opinionated]

Gender: Male

Appearance: Tall/average height, black hair, brown eyes. He has a series of burn scars going up to his shoulder

Special Ability: Pyrokinesis and weak telepathy.

He Janice, the woman he loved. However, she was shot in a bank heist. Not only that, but the killer got off easy. This infuriated Mitchell so much he nearly burned the apartment complex he lived in to the ground. He rented a small house in the country, and stocked it with fire exinguishers. However, he didn't know that the house had a long history of tragedy and rituals, and that history would intensify his telepathic ability.

Reason for entering the manor: Curiosity about what the building in his dreams is.

[Ωmega]

FMA: Approved
Op: (read the FF3 background link ^.^) but approved.

General info: all rpgers will be able to see and hear the ghosts...since its a dream. Any additional "sixth sense" you can think of is (in most cases) welcomed. The manor is like a mansion. It consists of three floors and over 80 rooms. Again, I'll see if I can get a good map to post...

[red storm]

Name: Tohyo Umeko

Age: 22

Gender: female

Appearance: Tohyo's eyes are an amber color, cleary vissible because of the mascara over her eyes. Her hair is a shining purple one, held together by a black ribon, weaved over her head and tied to the back. A short, but frilly black dress coveres her upper body while purple black striped stockings and boots cover her lower half.

Special Ability: Levitation, low-grade Umbrakinesis (abillity to manipulate darkness) limited to shadow walking.

Bio: A dark person. She's a gothic, after all, and tends to stick to the stereotypicall view of them. She smiles and laughs like everyone else, just with a bit more of a dark ring to it. She's also very manipulative, so one can never be to sure what side of a conflict she is on. Her shadow abilities allow her to stay out of public view, someting she prefers. After having lost a close friend of hers in a freak construction accident, the manor apeared in her dreams. Now, Tohyo always enjoyed dark legends and stories, and the one about the manor of sleep was icing on the cake.

Reason for entering the manor: Curiosity, she wishes to travel through the manor and see if all the stories she heard were reallity or fiction.

[Ωmega]

Red Storm (hehe, a Mega Tokyo fan I see)

A few problems:
Only the ghosts can 'control' the darkness that takes place in the manor. Your other sixth sense is fine.
Also, you need to have lost a loved one to enter..its the only way to see the manor (which appears in your dreams).
Just tweek those a bit and you'll be good to go

[red storm]

Right, just one question, would a low-grade Umbrakinesis work? That would limit it to fading in the shadows and remaining undetected from the other visitors. Not ghosts, obviously.

[Ωmega]

Sure... that works ^.^
It would also be great for hiding from ghosts too.

[red storm]

Coo, edits done, if anything's still missing just say the word.

[Ωmega]

Approved ^.^

[Astalle]

I've finished with editing, if it still needs tweaking, lemme know ^_^

[Ωmega]

Ok, let me re-explain. The manor of sleep is NOT an actual building. Its seen in your DREAMS, and DREAMS ONLY. You enter ALONE. Why are you there? Because someone you loved DIED. Please edit your character sheets to fit this.
You can encounter and team up with other characters after entering, but you first enter it alone.

Sounds Intresting and im curiouse about how this will go.

Name: Regal Sento

Age: 19

Gender: Male

Appearance: If you dont mind a picture..hes the one with the bird on his hand


Special Ability: All though being a black belt in all Martial Art Styles he is able to well if I may say change into his dark side (if that is aloud)
Good side Ability: He is able to heal the injured
Evil: Amazing Speed and streagth with the ability to Shatter objects with his hands.

Bio: Life for Regal was tough...he was always picked on and no one talked to him, he was always a charming and caring boy but everyone looked at him differently...accept one her name was Tifa and she was the only one who knew him better then everyone else. She was sweet and eventually they both fell in love and spent every waking moment with each other. Tifa even got him to sign up for Martial art classes, Which when he did he took every class and mastered everything that had to do with Martial arts...after years of dating he asked her to marry him, Of course she said yes and planned right away...until one dreadful day, Tifa became ill from an unknown disease, Regal worked hard to find a cure but eventually Tifa died....After that Regal was givin an ability to Heal the injured and sick which he decided to find away to bring Tifa back...But with that it also created an alter ego Named Kon Genkido. Now this wasnt your typical Dark side...when Regal found out about him, Kon was also good only was evil. They both set out on a quest to find a way to bring Tifa back.

Reason for entering the manor: To try and bring Tifa back and cure The Disease So no one will suffer like he did

[Ωmega]

Seikyu- just a few changes please!

I dont mind the changing sides thing, but "blowing stuff up" is a bit much. Perhaps just shattering a few objects? Cause even though its a dream, the manor is old...so anything "blowing up" could destroy the manor...which would be bad.
Alos, just making sure you know that you can try to bring back the dead, but it wont work. The dead stay dead.
Just fix the exploasion thing and your good to go!
