LAYERS (OPEN SIGN UPS - Mikes and Michelles only right now)

The Adventures of Mike and Michelle

This is an experimental episodic RP where in players control two characters; Mike and Michelle but with a catch. Each duo is from a different reality with realities existing in layers that one can travel up or down. The order is based on the color scale.

And yes our
theme song
is
Tetris

or is it The Future


Realities
For simplicity realities are color coded and organized based on the color scale with a traveler being able to pass only into one of two neighboring realities. The color associated with one's reality is the color in which your posts on the IC will be in. Travel between realities is generally done via the Junkar XII- a kind of inter-dimensional car and space ship but some Mikes and Michelles of realities use other means. Each pair usually has it's own story regarding the acquisition of this vessel.

Mike is a brown haired brown eyed male. Michelle is black haired and browned eyed. Mikes tend to be cautious and attentive while Michelles tend to be headstrong and more doers then listeners. In most realities Michelles the smarter of the two but not the most rational.

SIGN UP
Code: Select all
Special Note - Each episode will generally only revolve around one pair of Mikes and Michelles. Thus when the episode doesn't involve your pair you will create and play some natives to the featured reality thus always having a role in the episode. Trust us, things get a bit crazy when more than one pair are together- and such will be saved for a few special episodes that can fully exploit this.
[u]MIKE[/u]
[b]Bio and Personality[/b]:
===
[u]Michelle[/u]
[b]Bio and Personality[/b]:

Reality: (I will assign a designation for it upon acceptance of the application, please note that designation here; you may use this area to make notes on where the two come from. For example it should have a color designation based on the color of the text you'll be using. All characters from that reality will post with that text color. As the first players you can simply be from 'Reality Black' if desired which leaves the default text color. Be sure to explain how the pair have the ship, perhaps Michelle built it? Up to you.)


PLOT?
That's simple enough, we'll be episodic. Enroll as your own pair of Mikes and Michelles or grab a friend and split the roles. When your pair are not in the episode you can hop in as characters in the episode- natives to the featured reality.

Love how unconventional this is; how weird can we get with the alternate realities?
Signatures are so 2014.

It's an experimental RP so I'm not sure how to answer the question. How about providing an example of what one might do with an alternate reality? I should be able to gauge things better with such an example and provide insight or perhaps fill out an app and we'll see how the experiment proceeds.

Well, I was thinking, like... Mike is a post-apocalyptic tribesperson, possibly not even human, and Michelle is an AI based on the personality of a woman who died thousands or millions of years ago who is found by Mike in a stash of pre-apocalypse technology that includes her CPU and the Junkar XII.

Like, seeing just how different the two characters can be while still having them be the same people underneath everything.

I can see how that may be considered difficult for the multiverse of Layers BUT I did devise a suggestion that could work- though it would require a wee bit of time travel to become part of the Junkar XII. The idea would be that the reality was rather stable up to this era. In the original timeline Mike and Michelle traveled back in time, and the events of that adventure lead to the apocalypse. Time moved forward, a new tribal version of Mike finds the Junkar XII.
