I was participating in something like this in a RP forum and I Decided to bring this here
Basic Plot...
So the idea is basically rather simple - we are all on a boat on a... cruise.
There's a major gas leak for an unknown reason, and the boat is destroyed in the explosion following. Many people were killed but some survived. The survivors managed to get into a lifeboat but were all dumped into the ocean due to the shockwaves following the explosion
They are all washed up on the shore of an island which, of course, is in the middle of nowhere.
The island is habitable - it's fertile, there are lots of plants, animals and drinkable water - you know, that kind of thing.
However, they are the only humans there, and they have no contact with the outside world. They must rely on one another [once they meet, of course] to survive.
Rules...
1. No superpowers - this is going to be somewhat grounded in reality. Somewhat being the key word. XD
2. Characters can die, but that's decision belongs to both the GM [a.k.a me] or the actual person who's RP'ing as that character. Other people cannot kill off someone's character, although...
3. ... there may be fighting. But I'm talking brawls, not open war against one another.
4. Romance is allowed, but please, keep it tasteful. =P
5. No tagteaming.
6. You all start off as strangers. Well, acquaintances, anyways... for now.
