A Quiet Night at the Museum (NATM RP|APP|OOC)

Postby Mediama » Sat Jan 18, 2025 12:49 am

The New London Museum of Natural History and Art is one of the largest museums in New London, some may argue in Mediama. Just like any museum, the NLMNHA has numerous exhibits ranging from taxidermy to wax figures, mannequins, and dioramas just like any other museum. Its collection even stands toe-to-toe with its compatriots in the Smithsonian and the British Museum.

Yet there's one thing about it that makes it stand out from everyone else.

Every night after the doors close, one could hear the commotion coming from behind the museum's doors, yet come morning, nothing appears to have changed, everything is still in place, and it all seems like its ready for another day.

The only ones who really know are the night guards.

Out of desperation a plucky young girl starts her first night at the museum... unaware of how her life would change forever.
Welcome ladies and gentlemen, to AQNATM, an RP based off of the Night at the Museum film series. For those not familiar with the franchise, the premise is that every night museum exhibits literally come to life for some unknown reason. It's up to the night guard to keep them in line until the break of the day when the exhibits go back to normal.

Now I may hear you asking, "Where do we fit in all of this?" Well my friend, you can't have a museum without exhibits, and that's where you come in.

Sadly we'll need
1. No Godmodding, Metagaming or similar stuff. No exceptions.
1.1. If you find anyone guilty of breaking any of these rules, bring it to attention here in a calm and civilized manner. We'll then talk about it.
1.2. Be polite, at least on the OOC.
1.3. I reserve the right to change, amend and expand upon these rules.
1.4. OOC on the OOC-thread, IC on the IC-thread. It's not complicated.
1.5. Please keep in mind that there might be days when I don't respond to questions on the OOC or posts on the IC immediately. Please don't freak out, if that happens.
2. All NPCs will be controlled by me and only by me. No exceptions.
3. No murders, we’re going for lighthearted fun with only a smidgen chance of death at the beginning. Later on there may be character death if agreed upon between all parties involved and notice has been given to me through TG or through the OOC.
3.1. Violence between player characters only after both involved players agreed to it here. However, be aware that the night guard's job is to mediate in such situations.
4. Permitted Characters:
4.1. Generally speaking, your characters will be part of exhibits on loan from your nation's respective museums. They could be anything ranging from paintings and sculptures, to taxidermy or any other alternative barring holograms, to wax mannequins of famous people in your nation's history, to even minature diorama sets, and even gift shop souvenirs such as plushies and bobble heads.
4.2. Should you decide to play as a diorama set, please note the playstyle will be similar to that of Nation RP found in places such as International Incidents or other similar threads on NS. Know what you're getting into. You'll still be playing individual characters, just on a larger scale. In this case, include applications of figures within the diorama you will be focusing on.
4.3. Maximum number of characters: As many as you can play as individual characters comfortably.
4.4. I would generally prefer adult characters, but I am willing to make reasonable exceptions.
4.5. Please hotlink to the images if they are wider than around 550 by 550 pixels and please do not spoiler. This is not a hard rule, but a request.
4.6. Weapons: Should be clear, given this is a museum and your characters are part of museum exhibits, weapons should be PT. No exceptions.
4.7. One Character, one filled out app. No exceptions.
4.8. Non-human humanoids are permitted, however within reason. Magic will be permitted on a case-by-case basis (no, I don't care, what you call it). Shipgirls and Strike Witches Magic are permitted, though. Generally though, this RP is Modern Tech (MT) with some leniency.
4.9. The question “Have you read and understood the Rules?” is to be answered with “A night out at the museum, what could possibly go wrong?” No exceptions.
4.10. Characters must be original, so no characters nabbed from [Popular Anime 18945548945545] or [Sitcom 154151524851524]. You can use whatever images you want, though. No exceptions.
5. No one-liners. I do not demand novel-length posts, but please put a bit of effort into your posts.
6. You will have to provide a RP-Sample with your app. This has to be a link to a RP from your account, which shows how you interact with other players. No exceptions.

Good afternoon, Mediama,
wonderful to finally see this up and running. I was looking forward to it. Prepare for Mama Tine and her kids, as well as a Selkie Diorama. ; )
That being said, is it only me or do the rules sound familiar in places? ; )

mfg,
Selks
I play PT, MT and a bit FT. I am into character-RPs.
My people are called the Selkie, the nation is usually called the Free Lands in MT-settings. Thanks.
ICly, I (usually) do not deal in RL History.

Oh just did a bit of cribbing. You’re the golden standard for rules after all.

Well, let’s just say there will be a big bad or two eventually. Beginning’s going to focus on shenanigans and seeing how everyone gels with each other.

                Notes: This version of Portia is a wax figure. Her basis is the historical Portia, born a royal Princess in 1080 CE and lived to 1142 CE. In 1105, Portia married a commoner and willingly gave up her royal title but was allowed to retain a minor title. She is noted for being married to and joining Captain Edmund Faria, with crown patronage, assembled a crew and explored further parts of Greater Dienstad the region where Abetton resides, helping early charting efforts.

                Country of origin: Abetton
                Appearance: Portia is a young 20 year old woman, long blonde hair. Much of this is based on known paintings of her from her days as Princess and diary entries and other historian accounts.
                Occupation: Former Princess, minor nobility, sailor, explorer

                Appearance: The exhibit aims to depict two separate sides of a street depicted in two states, one during the Tyzkyan Civil War and one during the Reconstruction period.

                Occupation: Diorama Figures

                Notes: The diorama figures regularly reenact their battle with each other in miniature, every night it goes more or less the same, with the battle ending in a stalemate and them resetting to their original positions. They're actually not hostile to one another, they just reenact the battle because that's all they really know how to do. However, if the security guard or some other entity is to interact with them, they'll pause their little battle and interact normally. The only thing is that they don't talk, just just kind of stare, or make gestures with their hands. I put them down as a group as realistically that's how I would be playing them, essentially a hive mind of little plastic army men.

                While NS Stats inform the IC nature of Tyzkya, they are not in and of themselves canon. Please refer to my factbooks for information on my country, this one is an In-Depth Overview of things.

                              I will note that, as you can see, a lot of the articles still need some setup.

                              Btw, I am also thinking about adding a number of figurines, a bit like the one Schleich produces, of the various kinds of warriors of ancient times of my nations (including Marcach and Tabardariyya). What do you think?


                              Accepted, welcome aboard! Kinda terrified what the night guard's first encounter with the tine colony's going to be like though, imagine seeing a bear-sized badger come to life. XD

                              Regarding the figures, be my guest to apply for them or for stuff like diorama's. The more the merrier!

                              Notes: The diorama figures regularly reenact their battle with each other in miniature, every night it goes more or less the same, with the battle ending in a stalemate and them resetting to their original positions. They're actually not hostile to one another, they just reenact the battle because that's all they really know how to do. However, if the security guard or some other entity is to interact with them, they'll pause their little battle and interact normally. The only thing is that they don't talk, just just kind of stare, or make gestures with their hands. I put them down as a group as realistically that's how I would be playing them, essentially a hive mind of little plastic army men.


                              Looks good, really descriptive. However you may want to look over the rules again. Let me know when you've changed the app accordingly. Bit of a question though, do each of these mannequins and figures have names? Just curious given there could be some confusion if you're planning to play as all of them unless you know of a way of identifying them in writing.

                                            I will note that, as you can see, a lot of the articles still need some setup.

                                            Btw, I am also thinking about adding a number of figurines, a bit like the one Schleich produces, of the various kinds of warriors of ancient times of my nations (including Marcach and Tabardariyya). What do you think?


                                            Accepted, welcome aboard! Kinda terrified what the night guard's first encounter with the tine colony's going to be like though, imagine seeing a bear-sized badger come to life. XD

                                            Regarding the figures, be my guest to apply for them or for stuff like diorama's. The more the merrier!
                                            [...]


                                            I imagine some existential terror on his part, but Mama Tine... I don't imagine her to be this story's Teddy Roosevelt, but I do imagine her to be like the mother of the neighbour's kids, who watches the kids playing with a gentle smile and words of encouragement.

                                            As for the figures, let's see, who I can come up with... and with how many. ; )
                                            I play PT, MT and a bit FT. I am into character-RPs.
                                            My people are called the Selkie, the nation is usually called the Free Lands in MT-settings. Thanks.

                                            I'm pretty sure I found what I did wrong, it was the thing about 'what could go wrong', right? Please note I have some trouble figuring stuff like this out so if it's still not fixed please point it out to me directly because otherwise I'm just going to wind up tweaking random things. I've also given both of the mannequins names, Sergei and Ivan. I was thinking about adding a shipgirl that I used in a previous RP (actually the same RP I linked as an RP sample) but I dunno, I haven't decided if she would be a good fit or not.

                                            okay, added some more to the first app and I filled out the character app as well, let me know if it's good or you need more details.


                                            Accepted. Would like to see what the whole setup and display looks like once we get the RP rolling but aside from that we're golden!

                                            That's correct, you're good and your app's been accepted Love the fact that you've been descriptive with exhibits as well. Kansen are fine as well.

                                              This sounds fun. Would a sentient set of dinosaur fossils be allowed? You did say the exhibits come alive.

                                              Can't have a Night at the Museum Rp without at least one sentient dino fossil. Go nuts. Only limits are no holograms, there has to be a reasonable spiritual connection to the actual figures, similar to what was seen and explained in the Night at the Museum films.

                                                So, I have an question regarding shipgirls. Due to the... Tricky nature of their cases, would they need to be real shipgirls or something more in line with the wax mannequins from the movies?

                                                Given the fact that the Mediaman government sees Kansen as legally people, they would need to be wax mannequins. (It’d be like locking someone up in a zoo according to Mediaman law).

                                                Exception to this are museum ships, which would the equivalent of owning a historically significant home and then charging people to tour your home.

                                                Which of course now raises the question... does the New London Museum of Natural History and Art have an annex with museum ships?
                                                And if not, would a diorama with ships lead to the ships actually being able to float? ; )

                                                Exception to this are museum ships, which would the equivalent of owning a historically significant home and then charging people to tour your home.


                                                Which of course now raises the question... does the New London Museum of Natural History and Art have an annex with museum ships?
                                                And if not, would a diorama with ships lead to the ships actually being able to float? ; )


                                                Maybe not on land, I can imagine they organize a cove or bay with groupings of museum ships, like they have with the Intrepid in New York or with the Midway and other museum ships in San Diego.

                                                Conversely, some museum ships may reside in the province they represent or were sponsered by, like they do in the states.

                                                Either way, trying to put their rigging in ship form all in one annex would be impractical due to the size (going by Azur Lane rules here, where their rigging could also turn into the actual ships they represent).

                                                As for dioramas... given how in one of the scenes in the film Larry splashes water onto someone by grabbing a painting depicting a ship at sea and throwing it like a bucket of water, emptying said painting of all its water... diorama ships can indeed float. Any depicted crew on board will also be alive as well of course.
