Default Two sign-ups in one!

Yes. The title speaks true, and i have two RP ideas bouncing around in that hollow cavity called my brain. Space. Thing.

One is fantasy, one is modern.

Fantasy is going to be quite dark. Huge dark lord, sealed in his own land (Read Realms for details) Except there's one tiny itty bitty loophole...

There's a magical artifact called the Pearl. It can be used to absorb evil. Unfortunately, this guy has been pumping it up to the point that it's now called the black pearl.

The only known person who can purge the pearl is the Harlequin. Unfortunately, the prophecies trailed off two years ago, ending in "One of salvation, and one of ruin will be bound together. The fate of all rests on all that has come before." Esentially, no one has a clue what is going on, and with the Pearl jammed full, Dark Lord is ammasing corrupted men, monsters which in turn he's also boosted and directed, and in the extreme rare cases demons themselves.

Basically, the Harlequin needs to be found FAST. And, they also have to hold off the constant assaults on the spires, and various other places. On, and the Grand Seer, the head of the Adeptus Magicollous Collegius is missing. The most powerful wizard that is the one who looks into the future and directs everything is missing. So....that's a problem.

Sign-up would be as followed in Realms.

Second idea I had was called Heist. Theives. Not the sneaky kind, but more like the kind from The Italian Job. They would rarely pull a gun, and do everything with mathematical precision. Everyone that signed up would have a specific contribution, like explosives, scrounging (finding and getting what they need), or being the getaway driver.

This would be the sign-up

Name
Age
Role
Equipment
Bio



So..answer the pole, and decide which one is post-poned.

I wonder who is going to be the 'One of Salvation...' (Sarcasm)

And how many times have you tried this modern RP already? (I think this is the fourth time...)

1) NPC most likely. Crappy little NPC who can't fight worth shit and likes to run into the middle of carnage.

and 2) Every-single modern RP i've done has been different. Hitman was focusing on infiltrating and killing a single target. Kill-Team was focusing on going in working as a team, accomplishing multiple objectives, possibly infiltrating, then getting the hell out. This new one is focusing on making sure everyone does their part, and getting the target out and away in as short a time frame as humanly possible.

Let's look at the concepts.

Kill solitary target with as little detection as possible until the kill

Accomplish multiple objectives and never be found

Steal the target, and get the hell out of dodge while dealing with guards, goons, and cops.

Sounds the same, but with little difference in the mission department

I don't know what KATN is...

And I voted for the fantasy one, since I see a chance of that living, and I doubt the modern one would... (Face it, anything without magic here had died)

What's KATN?

Maybe Harlequin shouldn't be a person, even an NPC, but some sort of item or weapon instead?

Actually, not really.

Hitman was too much lone-wolfin' based. And you people SUCKED at the idea of being undetected. Should've made harder reprecusions.

Kill-Team required working in unity and being undetected. Once again, you people SUCKED. I mean really, tossing a flash-bang grenade WHEN YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO BE UNDETECTED?


Heist doesn't rely on you being stealthy. Just getting the job done, and actually (*gasp*) working together.
