[ INTEREST CHECK ]
Aloha, nerds.
This is an interest check for an upcoming mafia based murdergame set to open August 5th, 2017. It's a spiritual successor of![[community profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/community.png)
robowest but you don't have to have played in robowest to play in tikirobo.
The long and short of it is that Hal, a kind of deus ex machina type robot is in charge of running "kill or be killed" type contests for no real reason other than the fact his "employers" have tasked him to do so. As a result, each game is run in a tiny pocket of space and time that's themed in whichever way that suits his fancy.
This time? The theme is beach episode.
The other twist of this game is that it'll function as a kind of team game where each character is matched with another through the course of the game. They'll be tasked with protecting each other, amongst other things, and if one team member dies -- the other will die soon after. So, be aware if you app -- your character might not end up dying the way you want.
While tikirobo is definitely happening and the information is up in this journal to peruse as you'd like, the purpose of this interest check is to decide two things --![[plurk.com profile]](https://plurk.com/favicon.ico)
claptrap) or Cal (kalisona)'s plurks you already have an invite and your application will take priority! After that, every applicant gets one invite to share with a friend. If we have any slots after that, then anyone can app. No big.
That said, before you fill this out -- if you're new to murdergames, please read this powerpoint. It helps honestly explain the level of commitment needed for a game like this!
Name: Your name
Invite: If you've been invited, I want to know who your bro is! Just to be aware of who's apping.
Timezone: The game will run on EST so unfortunately, please consider if this will work for you!
Characters: Who are you going to put through the wringer?
Likelihood: This is so I can know if I'll have to alter the character cap in some way. I won't be making it higher than say, 40, but I might make it lower depending.
Questions?: We'll answer to the best of our abilities!
Other: Shitpost away!
And that's it. Thank you!

While tikirobo is definitely happening and the information is up in this journal to peruse as you'd like, the purpose of this interest check is to decide two things --
1) Do we have enough players to actually do a team game? We need at least 26 characters to have a team game but more than that would be ideal. 26 characters only guarantees 13 individual murders which is the bare minimum to have the game run properly.But for a basic guideline on who to app and how to app:
2) What type of characters we'll be getting in general. This helps Cal and I figure out what sort of tone we want to set for the game (if there are too many pures, we gotta figure out how to kill the pures for instance.)
★ Characters who can easily be driven into killing. Either for the greater good or some selfish desire of theirs -- it's important that they will kill. Characters who are too morally upright or can only kill in a specific instance are much harder to work with in a game like this.As a heads up, this game is invite only but we're pretty flexible about it. If you're on Squee (
★ Characters older than sixteen but if there is a character you feel fitting for this setting, please ask and we'll be more than happy to give you a yay or nay!
★ Characters both human and non-human alike. There won't be any body alterations other than, perhaps, making 10 feet tall characters 6 feet tall instead. Robots stay robots, furries stay furries, it's no big.
★ Aside from that though, powers will be nerfed. All actions will have to be committed with the tools available or your characters own hands. No powers to get an edge over the competition.
