"Welcome to Oceancrest!"
Oceancrest was often spoken about in hushed whispers. Many people across the country of Liore spoke of it with fear, worry, and disdain. The city was seen as a festering stain upon the lands, and for good reason. It seemed as though Oceancrest had a way of corrupting anyone who stepped into its domain. Corruption ran deep into its veins, crime and violence was the standard; not at all helped by the fact that the political landscape in the city was a battlefield in of itself. The people were growing more and more restless, fed up more and more with the corruption of the city's government and police. And then, in more recent news, the top mob boss in the city was arrested during a raid. He was finally off of the streets, and would almost certainly never see the light of day ever again. This arrest should've been a triumph for Oceancrest. It should've been an announcement that nobody in the criminal underworld was safe, that not all police were corrupt, that there were officers still willing to protect and serve. Unfortunately, this was not the case. All this meant was that now, a massive power vacuum has opened up as the former emperor of the criminal world has fallen, his throne left empty and ripe for the taking. A violent, bloody gang war was not only inevitable, it was imminent, and unfortunately the police were too stretched thin to properly contain the violence that would stem from it. His officers, the men and women who weren't corrupt, were outnumbered. Criminals were getting horrifically more ambitious. The civil unrest in the country of Liore itself was spreading like a wildfire. The Police Chief of Oceancrest realized that simply put, he was staring at a wave of chaos that was threatening to swallow his city whole. He needed outside help. He needed Nightwatch.
The Nightwatch Agency is a privatized military company that is dedicated to upholding peace and maintaining order, protecting the ones who aren't able to protect themselves across the galaxy. They had various agents working under various governments and militaries, dealing with a plethora of threats from armed robberies to superpowered terrorist attacks. But to the Police Chief, they were simply another private military that was in it for the money, profiting off of the world's tragedies and chaos. However, with nobody else to turn to, he connects himself to their hotline, giving them a call. Your character is a seasoned agent of Nightwatch. She has been working with the agency for quite a while now. She has seen and experienced things that are unfathomable to a normal person. So, when she was told that she was being named captain of a small team of agents that would aid the Oceancrest Police, she didn't bat an eye. My character is a rookie, a young man and an aspiring upstart within the agency who has seen a few missions, but has yet to really get his hands dirty. So, when he was told that he would be a part of this team, he was more than eager to follow through on the oath he took. The team's goal? Investigate and bring order to the chaos that plagued Oceancrest.
A simple goal. A standard mission. Unfortunately, our characters and their teammates are woefully unprepared for the true terrors they will face when they arrive in the city. They will be met with threats such as upstart robbers to organized gangs to crazed cultists and murderers who are cruel and dangerous. Terrorists with convictions forged in fire, superpowered madmen who rampage across the city, deranged individuals with psyches shattered into pieces. And behind it all, a villain who has dedicated himself to chaos and violence, a main antagonist who is just eager to drag the team into his domain of madness. Will our characters succumb to the eldritch horrors of Oceancrest's ceaseless madness? Or will they persevere and see their duty fulfilled?...
Hello There!
A cordial invitation!~
Welcome. I cordially invite you to take on the role of a captain as she oversees and commands a team of agents who have been sent into a city rife with crime, violence, and all manners of insanity. Join me, and forge with me a story and world with themes around tales like The King in Yellow, Carcosa, and incorporated themes of the seven deadly sins.
It goes without saying that we will be diving headfirst into a variety of heavy topics. Violence, drug use, various(and frankly inaccurate) depictions of mental illnesses, and of course, the psychological aspects tied to them all. Now, I would like to clarify that the policing aspects of this story won't be entirely tactical or realistic; this won't be a Ready Or Not or Swat 4 in roleplay form. That said, let us continue with the ad.
The World
The world of Oceancrest is set in a fictional world separate entirely from ours. Oceancrest itself and the world around it combines various aspects of sci-fi and fantasy; there are cybernetics, magic, superpowers, and more within the world for us to play with. I do have systems for powers and magic, and would be happy to share them with you in OOC. Oceancrest itself will be a cyberpunk neonscape filled with slums, high end areas, and more. The world and city can be tweaked and modified as we see fit.
Literacy And Writing Preferences
I have been writing casually for around 7+ years now, and roleplaying for 5+. During my time, I have come to really love the craft, and I am hoping to expand my capabilities while also indulging in some fun stories with people!
I am a detailed writer, and consider myself advanced literate. I write with a novella writing style, and particularly love focusing on writing about characters; their actions, details about their emotions and thoughts, their mannerisms, and more. That said, I do heavily value dynamic replies; we are writing a story together, and some scenes will require longer replies, whereas others will demand shortee replies(I typically write shorter replies for smut and action scenes.) However, if you are a stickler for writing length, then do not fret because none of my replies go below five decently sized paragraphs.
Characters And Antagonists
So, with this sort of thing, characters will definitely be the biggest focus of our plots, from their careers as agents or villains to their interpersonal relationships.
We will definitely be playing a wide range of characters, from protagonists to antagonists to minor side and supporting characters.
Overpowered characters are welcome, however they must be done RIGHT. A character that is just OP for the sake of it is not fun to play with; and moreover, having characters being all-powerful isn't all that interesting to me. We can talk about this more in depth in private.
If I wish to have a character be OP in a fight, I'll be sure to warn you, and you may do the same.
Speaking on that, if I don't want a specific character to be killed off yet in a fight, I'll be sure to let you know before the fight begins!
I do have most of the main antagonists set in stone. There are seven of them, each of them being themed/inspired by the seven deadly sins. However, if you are interested, the sin of lust is still open, and I am more than happy to let you make a sin for our characters to face off against. Aside from that, I also have a plethora of other antagonists for our characters to battle against, from minor small fries to big fish who pose a higher threat to the people of Oceancrest.
Romance And Smut
So, I will admit, I've never played a plot that didn't involve romance or smut before, and I'm not really looking to start now. That said, the smut and romance in this plot will take a backseat to the story overall, even if I would like for it to be there. That being said, you are probably going to want to take a look at my most recent NSFW RT here for more specifics as to what I'm looking for in this department.
Alternative Start Idea
Second Chance
You are a woman who is currently serving the thirteenth year of a forty five year long prison sentence in a prison located in the deepest reaches of space after a major heist gone wrong. Sure, you had quite a bit of time to go, but you weren't going to fare much better out there anyways. After all, during that heist, you had backstabbed a powerful mob boss that was going to kill you the moment you landed on whatever planet you ended up being released to. Though, you weren't doing well inside, either. While the mob boss couldn't reach you, you weren't too keen on making friends here in the prison. And as a result, you became an outcast. You handled yourself just fine, but the number of enemies you were making was starting to get more and more dangerous…
That's when you heard of a privatized military company known as Nightwatch. Well, everyone has; it prided itself on upholding peace and protecting those who are unable to protect themselves. In fact, they are the reason as to why you and so many other of the scum you currently resided with were in the space prison, and prisons all over the galaxy. But, what interested you more so was that Nightwatch had started a new program known as Second Chance; if a criminal met certain requirements and prerequisites, then they could serve as agents for Nightwatch in exchange for their freedom. Unfortunately, you failed to meet these requirements. Too much blood was on your hands, simply put. However, you had an ally on the outside who was able to forge a few lies on your record; my character, a young man and twink who idolized you. He had a morbid interest in heists and bank robberies, and for a college project he had reached out to you in the hopes of learning more about your own grandiose albeit failed heist. And he was cute; sure, he was a human and younger than you, but he kept you company and was happy to send a few spicy images for you to entertain yourself with. But, most importantly, was his almost inhuman hacking ability. He was able to forge a few documents and rearrange bits and pieces of the official narrative of your record, and just like that, you were an outstanding choice for the Second Chance Program. Nightwatch picked you up, and before you knew it, you were made the captain of a task force that would be assigned to a city known as Oceancrest, a city that was notoriously rife with crime and violence. The political landscape in the city was a battlefield, criminals in the city were becoming more and more bold, and the recent arrest of the top mob boss in town only opened a power vacuum that threatened to consume the city even further. The police chief was begging for Nightwatch's help, and unfortunately, you had drawn the short stick. But, again, it allowed you to run from your past just a bit longer...
