Ah, hello and welcome back EB! :D
Also, Since Corpses approved of my plot idea I'll give it to y'all to think over about where you'll wanna be in the wonderful chaos:
-
Ay, I figured something out during the last RP that is likely the reason it died. There was no big event that brought the gang, characters, nor people playing the characters together. Everyone just started off doing their own thing with no real plot.
I thought about it, and I came to a sort of conclusion that there should potentially be a group event near the beginning of the RP. I had an idea before where Ollie and Roxie would join the gang at the beginning of the RP, triggering such events. But we'd also have to keep such events going. I had an idea where at the beginning, the gang leader would call all the gang members to give them morning tasks and chores. People would go with their tasks, but a specific group of selected individuals would have to go to Openshaw to pick up supplies or something. On their was back, or while they're getting their supplies they are ambushed and surrounded by a small group of bandits, who have guns pointed to the gang members heads, leaving them in a tough spot. In this scene would suddenly come Roxie and Ollie to save these random strangers, who just happen to be in a gang. Or save them, and then try to rob them because Ollie and Roxie would diffidently do that. Which would lead to them joining the gang.
This is sorta what I was brainstorming up while waiting for the Discussion post, which I may have gone a bit far XD But this is just where my brainstorming process went. If you'd like the idea, you may alter it if you wish, I sorta just threw it into my brain-

This is just the full PM I sent them, if anybody has any ideas, please don't be afraid to tell me or Corpses them! XD
This is all going to be the start of the RP, like I said, to bring everything together, as we slowly mold a plot, so everybody just isn't going off into their own subplots right from the start, which actually annoys me when people do thix because theres no growth in their characters, at all, and it has to be one of my biggest RPing pet peeves
