Would anyone be interested in a RP set in the universe of Mafia II or heck even after.
What about scraping Mafia II and making it a 1930s-1950s type Rp?

Nope.
There are other RPs out there which deal with similar subjects. You should try joining one of them instead.

Damak Var wrote:RP Name: Children of the End
RP Creator: The National Dominion of Hungary
Type (Character, Nation, Faction): Character
Genre/s: Post Apocalyptic, Modern Tech, Monsters/Epidemic,
Detailed Description: A group of survivors must stay and alive in the post apocalyptic world of Pandynosa. The fantasy world of Pandynosa is much like our own in terms of technology. In this world, government, order and society itself has fallen to a lethal epidemic which turns its victims into mutated marauding beasts. Players must work together to fight off these creatures, bandits and the environment itself as food, water and shelter is now scarce.

The RP will be rich in character development if you like that.

I like the idea, but I am involved in too many RPs right now.

There's basically three ways to attract people into joining a RP.

1) Be someone who's well known for good RPing. In other words, be popular around here.

2) Have a good idea and a good OP. Both are important, but personally I'd rather join a mediocre idea with a well-written OP than the other way around.

3) Have an easily approachable idea, like something that has to do with another franchise. This usually attracts a lot of noobs, though.

What RP are you talking about?

RP Interest App Form

High Concept: Gears of War

Genre/s: Survival, Action, Sci-Fi

Detailed Description: On the planet of Sera, two governments warred over a substance known as a 'miracle fuel': Imulsion. The Coalition of Ordered Governments, aka the COG, defeated the Union of Independent Republics, or UIR, and not a month of peace had gone by before a new and more devastating threat emerged; the Locust. These subterranean monsters slaughtered hundreds in minutes, thousands in hours, and tens of thousands in days. The UIR and COG united into one, fighting a war not of power or money, but of survival. After fifteen years, the humans finally sacrificed their last bastion of civilization, the city of Jacinto, in a giant flood that defeated the Locust.......

Or so they thought....

Two years later, as Thrashball star Augustus Cole lead Delta Squad through his hometown of Hanover, they encountered Locust troopers on the famous Centennial Bridge as they fought to save their makeshift home; a warship called Sovereign. They joined up with Marcus Fenix and Dom Santiago in a quest to save Sera from Imulsion.

Very interesting idea. Would this be a RP based on individual character action or a group? I might consider joining if you get the details ironed out and a link sent. I am willing to help with the miniscule RP experience I have.

It'd be a character RP, and I'd be looking for people who have at least played the games, if not read the books and comics. In other words, people who have a fairly large knowledge of the Gears universe.

So, I had this idea for an RP. You've been living your entire life in ignorance. Gorging on simulated junkfood, spouting out the same meaningless phrases over and over again, and going from attraction to attraction like mindless sheep. Scenery appears out of thin air before you, but you're too caught up in the illusion that you don't know, and you don't care. But then it all changes. They approach you, show you the truth. It's all a program, it's all a fantasy. The spell is broken. But how do you escape?

You should play the third one. It's in 3D and it's got 3 expansion packs.

Thanks, it looks interesting. I'd rather wait for another rather than join midway and for some reason it doesn't look like something I want to join. I'll just wait...

RP Name: 6.25 The war of change
RP Creator: Greater corea
Type (Character, Nation, Faction): Character (bit of nation)
Genre/s: History/ alt hist. Action, (adventure?).
Detailed Description: A character RP based on the Korean War. Only the events prior to the Incheon landings happen (although they may happen differently, it does have to have a similar effect). From there it's pretty much up to you to fight, kill, and escape daring and dangerous scenarios. Ultimately the result remains unknown, depending on the advances made there will be a different ending to the story. Battles are set and depending on division you may or may not be involved in a particular battle, the results are dictated by me depending on troop count, equipment, and terrain.
