Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood Horror Monster AU
We’re a small group of friends running a FMA:B RP in an AU setting that takes the characters away from their world and into another. The premise is that once characters arrive there, they gradually, mysteriously begin to turn into monsters. There's a variety of monsters to choose from and it’s a fun challenge to explore how these changes affect everyone physically and psychologically. Our group mostly focuses on interesting character interaction and subtext, but there are larger mysteries to uncover and also plenty of opportunities for action. We prefer that all players are 18+ since there are combat scenes with blood, gross monster transformations, and other mature horror themes as the story progresses.
We are a consistent, long term group that has been playing for about 6 months. We have a good idea of where things are going with the plot, and now are looking to add some more players to shake things up. On average each of us posts once to each of our active threads a day, but we have been known to have focused sessions to get through a scene. It's a low pressure group so sometimes the pace is slower if people are busy - the most important thing to us is consistency in the long term.
A few additional details:
- This is an advanced literate RP, so it’s very heavy on prose and nearly all posts are multi-paragraph.
- We use Discord for out of character chat and coordination but we play on Dreamwidth.
- You can opt out of your character being a monster (For example, Ed is not a monster).
- Characters arrive as normal humans without any special abilities. These can be earned back through story progression.
- We currently have Ed, Mustang, and Hawkeye as established characters and Ling potentially joining soon. We would welcome any other characters from Brotherhood/the FMA manga.
- There are lots of opportunities for OC development and playing multiple secondary characters to fill out the world.
