Dragons!
Now that I have your attention...
(Please forgive the text wall and the slightly jumbled info)
I was thinking of starting an almost Hunger Games based RP set in a medieval style fantasy world. Twelve criminal youth are voted by a council of elders to compete in an arena-based fight to escape alive. In the arena are chests that are filled with useful supplies, though weapons are limited and the teens are sent in with nothing. In addition to the chests, twelve dragon eggs are hidden throughout the arena. There is one egg specifically tuned to hatch upon the touch of a human for each competitor. The objective is to find an egg, hatch it, and raise it to be able to fly over the unclimbable and magically reinforced wall. Any magic the teens may possess is nullified within the arena. To give the roleplay a lifespan, it takes about eight months for a dragon to mature to the point of being able to escape. The dragons cannot talk, but are sentient (think of Toothless). If you think this sounds too easy, you're right. The youth in the arena are not alone. In there with them are adult dragons ranging from the size of a horse to the size of a house, as well as normal predators like cougars, bears, and wolves. Of course, where there are predators, there is prey, so rabbits, squirrels, foxes, deer, wild hog, pheasant, and aquatic animals like fish and frogs can be found in relative abundance.
Arena Rules:
No killing or maiming the other people in the arena
Killing another will result in the smashing of your dragon's egg or the killing of your dragon, as well as your execution.
You may kill another's dragon
You may only hatch one egg. Even if your dragon dies, you may not hatch another
RP Expectations:
Mid semi-lit, one to two reasonable paragraphs with decent spelling/grammar
One or two characters per person depending on interest
Preferably at least two posts per person per week, but I get that life happens and that may not be possible
Thoughts and opinions are more than welcome, feel free to PM me if you're interested in something like this.
Also, set spots (the arsonist, the thief, etc.) or just open field for characters?
Thanks!
