MEME » RP SECRETS » THE IC EDITION

This is a thing along the lines of ic_secrets and roleplaysecrets from back in the livejournal days, except it will be from an IC standpoint: you make an image that has a secret one of your characters has. Something they don't tell people, something that's ~ S E C R E T ~. Bonus points if it's spicy. You make an image, upload it to the hosting site of your preference (DW hosts images), and submit it anonymously to this post.

All comments will be screened.

Guidelines:

1. images should be no larger than 800x800 pixels

2. you can make it text on a background, or an elaborate photoshopping job, as long as it's an image.

3. direct image URLs are preferred!

4. Remember to submit anonymously if possible! Us figuring out which character the secret belongs to is part of the fun. :]

GO NUTS. I'll post up the results next weekend (or the next, depending on how much time everyone needs: no rush, etc!)

Rift: a rift is a 'tear' in the universe that fails to keep worlds separate from each other. It's a hole in the fabric of space and time. Anything can fall through these rifts: people, objects, monsters, history itself. Your character fell through this one rift into villagers.

A green rift is an extension of the main Rift. It is not an independent thing. As such, a character is only temporarily sucked into some other place and time. Think impermanent rabbit hole. Where the green rift takes them is entirely up to you. Your character can go on any adventure you choose, so long as they are returned back to villagers at some point.

A red rift is similar to a green rift, except that your character does not realize anything is amiss. They believe they are part of the world they have fallen into, kind of like being AU'd in. A red rift happens much less frequently and is mainly used for musebox-wide events. You can utilize the green rift mechanic at all times, however.

Rift change: When someone falls through a rift, they are altered by it in some way. This alteration can take on many forms: the rift may give your character an ability or it may take one away. The rift may change your character's hair color or make them burst into song whenever they're happy. It may force them to be honest whenever they're asked a direct question. The possibilities are endless.

Wanderer: A wanderer is anyone that has fallen through a rift. Everyone in villagers now is technically a wanderer.

FOR TAMS. (and anyone else that wants a crash course on beyondtherift).

○ Rifts were 'tears' in the universe that failed to keep worlds separate from each other; holes in the fabric of space and time. Anything could fall through these rifts: people, objects, monsters, history itself.

○ Whenever rift activity was especially high, disasters usually followed. A catastrophic blizzard here, an abnormal deluge there, and of course, a parade of mythical monsters swarming the streets - whatever it was, it was extreme, and the death toll was always high.

○ Rifts were unpredictable and dangerous. Chicago, in particular, was saturated with them. It was this saturation that led to the end of the world, and only one rift survived it.

○ Beyond rifts, it was a world filled with many supernatural species: angels and demons, vampires and werewolves, witches and elementals. Angels and demons were the oldest of these beings. All were born human, and made supernatural, save for witches.

○ Angels and demons were pitted against each other since the beginning of time, and engaged in century-long wars that led to nothing but bloodshed. They are not, however, to be confused with the biblical counterparts.

○ Other parts of the world were claimed by only one of these two species - Vegas and New Jersey are strictly for demons, for example, while Boston and New York are strictly for angels. If angels stepped into demon territory, they were to be killed on sight, and vice versa.

○ These policies were similar for other supernatural beings: werewolves and vampires had their own territories. Witches were a vulnerable population with no set territory, mainly because all the other supernaturals wanted to use their magic for their own gain.

○ Thanks to a treaty, Chicago was the only place where all of these beings could co-exist peacefully. It didn't mean there wasn't lingering animosity among some of them, but angels and demons being friends wasn't unheard of, either. Some of them would even fall in love and raise families together.

○ The people that turned to Chicago were people that looked for something better, and it's why so many would stay despite the madness of the rifts. It felt worth it for the unity it could bring in the darkest of times. For the freedom to be who you were and love who you loved.
