Random Bystander Posted February 9, 2021 Report Share Posted February 9, 2021 (edited) Okay. So, I came up with an idea for an RP. It might suck, but I'm trying it out anyway. Anyway, the basic idea is that people from Earth (yes, our Earth) got teleported somehow onto Scadrial. The characters somehow get one (seemingly random) allomantic power or feruchemical power, and get to travel through Scadrial. They are from our current time period, so I don't think they would be too frustrated... I mean, Covid... This would start at the time Alloy of Law starts. Anyway, if you're interested just post a character sheet. My person is going to be me, (except for the name) and is going to have some extensive knowledge of the cosmere. If you want to play someone from Scadrial, that would be okay too. (I'll wait to post a character sheet until I see if anyone is actually interested in this.) Also, we get to mess up the plot if we want! Or not! It depends on what happens.

You guys can join as soon as you post character sheets. Lilliana had been having a good day up until the point she fell into what appeared to be a bottomless pit. She had been hiking with her family on an obscure trail, and had been enjoying getting out of the house. She was glad she didn't have to wear a mask, and wasn't watching where she was going. She had been falling in the hole for what seemed like hours. After about 10 minutes, she had taken one of the 2 books out of her bag, and started reading. It was Warbreaker, but she was having a hard time concentrating as she fell to what she assumed was certain doom. She got to the part where Vivenna saw Siri, and sighed, putting the book away. Not long after that she fell asleep. Lilliana woke up on the ground. She was in an alley, and was wearing jeans, a t-shirt, and tennis shoes. She saw people passing by wearing old fashioned clothing, and her eyes widened with horror. Where the heck am I? One man passing by tripped. "Rusts!" The man cursed. Lilliana's jaw dropped. Did he just... He couldn't have. I... I must've misheard him. She just sat there shocked. A few minutes later, a coinshot flew past. I am either crazy, hallucinating, dreaming, or this is Scadrial! I hope it's the third one. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Unknown Ajah Posted February 10, 2021 Report Share Posted February 10, 2021 Quote Hmm, what should I do? Should I be myself? That would be fun, but I feel like I'm a little too young for this. I could age myself a few years, ya, let's do that. Name: Evaniel (Evan) Salem. Description: Dark brown hair with grey eyes. A tall build, halfway between skinny and stocky. Magic: Steelrunner. Backstory: Took part in sports from a young age, just soccer and gymnastics at first, but when he got older he started wrestling and a couple years after that he started doing Jiu-Jitsu.

Has read almost all of the cosmere. Skills: Wrestling, Jiu-Jitsu (grappling), bow and gun hunting, some basic knife fighting and a general idea of sword fighting. Ok, now I'll do a quick roleplay. Evan did the last stroke as he mopped, but when he finished he appeared in...what in the world? It smelled like he was in a dumpster, upon further inspection, he learned he was mostly correct, he was in a trash heap. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Finally, something inexplicable- magic- had happened! And oh no oh dear please no, something inexplicable had happened. I mean, yay, but why did it have to be a story where he got dropped directly into a strange new world? Okay, calm down. We aren't underground, and the walls look rather normal. Maybe it's just like some modern analogue world where everything is nearly identical, but not quite in geography or something? I mean, no magic, but at least I wouldn't have to learn anything new about things and have awkward conversations? Also, I hope that I wasn't the only person transported. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lilliana was panicing. She was running around the alley waving her arms around. She didn't know what to do. There were other people, but she didn't care. WHAT THE FREAKING FRICKIN FRAKIN! I'M IN SCADRIAL! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! I need to calm down. Breathe in-2-3, out-2-3, in-2-3, out-2-3. Once she calmed down, a thought struck her, and she began to grin. I have a PB&J wrapped in aluminum foil! I'm not going to die immediately. I am so glad we were out of plastic wrap. I've never been so glad for a shortage of anything in my life! I never thought I would say this, but Covid actually caused something good. She clutched onto that thought to keep her relatively calm, although she still was pacing. "Hi.

"Mackinaw island is in Lake Huron, right off the coast of Michigan. They don't allow cars there, so you either need to use carriages or bikes. I'm not sure how you got here... um, maybe it was a mechanic who said rust. Falling into a hole while hiking," Luke paused, "Heat stroke? You may have passed out. I know it gets warm down there near the equator." In February though? Luke frowned, seeing the logical failings in his own arguments.
