Title: Real-life


Sly - July 2, 2008 01:21 AM (GMT)
Genre:
“Real Life”
I have been looking for a game that is aimed at ‘troubled teens’ or something along those lines. If anyone has a game that they think fits this, that would be great.
I am willing to look at anything, I am not 100% sure what I am looking for at this point.

Difficulty:
Intermediate to advance

Type(s) of Creature(s):
Humans only

Preferred Rating:
R

Preferred Number of Members/Activity:
Member count doesn’t matter. I would like a decently active game where people are on everyday.

Preferred Time where RPG is set in:
Modern day only

Other Notes:
I am trying to get back into role-playing again after a rather lengthy hiatus so a game that can be somewhat lenient with activity would be nice.

If you are going to post a boarding school please nothing that is ‘stereotyped’ I have joined too many boarding school games that are almost identical to one another. I want something different, the other games will not hold my attention.

I want something different but not obscure my characters at the moment are average humans so I want the setting to be modern day.

(Sorry if this isn’t completely clear… )

Las Vegas is where anything goes, and everything stays. All the secret affairs, gambling, it's where people go for time to just have 'fun'. But then, there's always cheaters to this system and sometimes, it's not always fun for everyone else.

Casino: Fatale is a Literate To Advanced roleplay forum about transparant societies underneath all the lights, and the fancy colors that Las Vegas holds. Two teams, FALCON, and RAVEN, oppose each other in pure hatred for one another, or at least, their leaders due to beliefs about the way things should be run. Main mission? To destroy one's organization before the other destroys yours. Some may think it's simple, and each group puts the main goal as 'Protecting Vegas'.

But there's more to the story than a simple fight and protect scenario. It goes into a deep history between the leaders of each team, and the original goal that both teams shared. Differences create enemies, and now you must decide on where your loyalties lie. And is what you're fighting for truely noble?

Las Vegas, the city of lights, where the night is always alive; filled with gamblers, tourists, families, drunks, partiers, and the rich and famous. But the dark secret about Las Vegas is the people who work behind the scenes, doing the unthinkable. Troops of thieves have joined in harmony to go after the big and expensive parts of the city of lights.

Not have they only gone after the casinos for the towels in the hotel rooms, but also for the money. With the many crews coming in, there is almost not enough to pull off a big job. These groups now have to fight against each other for the prize, and fight the NGC and rough casino’s owners.

Now with the brand new Twilight Hotel&Casino on the strip, the player groups are getting anxious to pull their first job on it; but there is a rumor that the owner is not one to mess with. As the opening day grows closer the thieves are moving in for the kill but who will get there first.



Other notes:This is a new site and we really need a lot of canons and original characters to get the storyline rolling.

    Detroit. Already one of the most infamous and dangerous cities in the world. One wouldn't think that it would be possible for this city to become even more so, but it has.

    For years, the Colombians, Italians, and Russians had all held a shaky truce while they attempted to take their control over the city. Each 'gang' had their own specialty and each one was trying to rub out the other in subtle ways. The Colombian Cartel ran the best drugs, the Russian Mob had the best weapons and the Italian Mafia held great power in the city government. Unfortunately, they were always at war. One man, a great and respected leader from the old days, stepped up to bring peace to the city and offered a way to make the best of their strengths and weaknesses. Together, the three leaders from the three families and the revered leader were going to turn things around at a summit meeting in downtown Detroit. What happened then, no one can honestly tell you.

    Dead.

    It was all over the news for weeks. The one that they called the Don was found dead in his hotel room the day before the meeting when all of the families and their people were in town and on edge. With such a loss to their last hope, it seems that everyone is pointing the finger at the other. The police just blamed the families and their war but the families are blaming one another. Who could have done this? The Colombians? Well, of course they want to own the drug world but what would they do with the whole city? The Russians? Americans still like democracy, thank you. The Italians? Those pasta loving morons would turn the city into some backwards third world village! So then... who?

    If you listen very carefully, you can hear it.

CAN I BELIEVE WHEN I DON’T TRUST
all your theories turn to dust

    The mentally insane.

    Treated like lepers by those who claim to love them, the ones who beg them to receive treatment to correct their “bent” mental state. These so-called insane persons were, at one point of their lives, average human beings and by the standards of today’s society, considered to be sane. Then something happened. Something that caused the fine structures they built their lives around, the very foundation on which they had built their lives upon, to come crashing down around their ears with a deafening noise. Suddenly, they were no longer sane; they were a danger to society and must be treated, perhaps even cured, of their “ailments”, of their insanity - to have their sanity restored.

    But what is sanity? Is it a picture that’s been painted by the higher authorities, drilled into our heads over the last thousand years by those with careful hands and strategic minds? Or is it the way that everyone wishes the world to be? What if the insane are really the only sane beings on the planet and the ones who claim to be in the right mental state are truly lost, enveloped so deeply into the illusion cast around them that there is no way to draw them out? Is it possible that the ones who have escaped the clutches of sanity are on the right side of the line, the ones who have seen the light and tasted the glory of the real world? Or are they truly as crazy as society paints them to be? Are the insane really insane or have they just come to their true senses?

    Welcome to City of Delusion, otherwise known as Deliramenti Asylum for the Mentally Insane. Not only is it the most prestigious mental hospital in the state of Washington, but it is quickly becoming the most popular asylum in the United States, nonetheless the Western Hemisphere. Before the fire that spread throughout the hospital, claiming two of the wings and the maximum security cells, the institution was already well known. Established in 1966 by Dr. Reginald Davenport just outside the city of Seattle, Washington, the Deliramenti Asylum for the Mentally Insane started off as a rather small hospital, consisting of only twelve patients. But as the success stories of his patients grew to be known by the public, more started to pour in through the doors. Soon, grants were received and put to good use. The asylum’s fame, as well as Dr. Davenport’s, skyrocketed and continued onward until the hospital became the place it is today, consisting of three floors and an innumerable amount of wings, wards, and rooms. It was a prestigious place, having a lovely reputation for the honest and hardworking psychologists who connected with their patients, made it their life to make sure that everyone in Deliramenti received the same treatment.

    The hospital was well on its way to becoming the most recommended asylum in the United States when disaster struck. A horrible fire consumed two of the wings as well as the maximum security unit. The fire was so large, so out of control, that the entire hospital was forced to evacuate the building until the blazing fire could be extinguished. However, when the nurses and doctors were checking the roster, they noticed one very alarming thing: a good lot of the patients were missing; some of them were obviously killed in the fire, as nothing could have saved them, even if they tried, but most of the inmates managed to escape. As if the fire wasn’t the worst of their problems, it was soon discovered that almost all of the escapees were the residents of the maximum security ring, the truly twisted and deliciously insane persons who had a thirst for blood and a penchance for evil in the eyes of society.

    Only a few days after the fire, Dr. Davenport dropped dead. It seemed that his death was from the forces of nature, but the fire? Oh no, the police hired to investigate the scene soon learned that the fire was intentionally set, that it was arson. But who was the arsonist and why hadn’t the information been leaked to the press? The news of the escapees already had and panic was consuming the city of Seattle; it was no wonder why the police didn’t want that sort of information available for public knowledge - imagine the effect it would have upon the city at large! Soon, Deliramenti Asylum was back in order. Though it was chaotic, all the patients had rooms to stay in and the hospital was running as smoothly as ever. Leadership of Deliramenti passed into the experienced hands of one Dr. William Korsakov, a famed Russian psychologist who could do no wrong. He seemed like the perfect fit for the Head of the Asylum. Things continued normally: patients were admitted, treated and released like clockwork. The asylum was constantly in the headlines, which only caused their fame and their fortune to skyrocket, just as it had in the early days of the establishment.

    It has been a year since the fire tore through Deliramenti Asylum. There are still escapees on the run, using their clever albeit detached minds to evade capture. A task force has been established to help bring in the criminals. And it seems that the press and police force are just one step away from working together to solve the mystery of Deliramenti Asylum: everyone who is anyone knows that the fire was not an accident and that something needed to be done to round up all the escapees, who were continuously reeking havoc on Seattle, causing an inflation in crime. The only question that remains is how far are those of the press and police force willing to go to unlock the secrets behind the infamous Deliramenti Asylum for the Mentally Insane. Are they willing to risk their lives, their reputations, their sanity? One taste of delusion and you come back for more. Just take one step over the line, break the boundaries of sanity and cross into the CITY OF DELUSION. One taste of delusion and you come back for more.

DESTROY THIS CITY OF DELUSION
break these walls down, i will avenge.

I think I may have a site to your liking. It isn't based solely around troubled teens, it's just surrounding the whole spectrum of Crime in New York, which the juveniles are playing some role in.

I want to wake up
In a city that doesn’t sleep


Most people tend to tread around certain people in their neighbourhoods, not living too closely with each other. Other’s couldn’t give a damn and will live with whoever they have to for things to run smoothly.

In a city as big as New York, you can imagine how high the crime rates should be; but in one certain parts of the city, they seem to be lowering dramatically. Is that because of the amazing police work being carried out? Or are people just too afraid to report a crime nowadays?

Rumour has it that there are a few in this small part of Manhattan who live above the law; and have many members of the police along with other civil servants, prosecutors, judges, jurors on their payroll.

Not everyone takes too kindly to the cash handouts from these petty crooks, and choose to deliver the police work that they swore to in the very beginning. Once they swear to uphold to law by any means necessary, they tend to stick to it. However tempting the gifts from the lowlifes of this city may be, they keep out of it and do the work which is expected of them

These vagabond shoes
Are longing to stray
And make a brand new start of it
New York, New York


The families of this place are what are keeping it together. Aside from the corruptness and crime in New York; these Detectives know that at the end of the day, they can go home and be with the people who actually appreciate what they are doing for their city.


Lives and Crimes
Of NYC
