Test Drive #004

Welcome to Atonement's fourth test drive, and thank you very much for stopping by! We hope you enjoy your stay! Please refer to the prompts below for ideas, or simply make up your own! Whichever is easiest for you.

Prompts

Arrival: You don't quite remember how you arrived here. It appears that you're suddenly in a dead land with eerily red skies. The grass is dead, the trees are dying, and there's absolutely no sounds of life beyond your own footsteps, even if it feels like you're being watched somehow. Eventually along the narrow path you follow, you walk through gates that seem to guard a quiet, abandoned town and a sinking feeling starts to settle in that you are far from home and there may not be an easy way back.

The sign hanging above the gates simply says "Welcome to Penance: Home Between Homes" and nothing more.

Within the gates, there are the leftovers of what may have once been a lively, welcoming little town, if it didn't look as if people either fled or somehow vanished in the blink of an eye. There are dusty shops that are still stocked with supplies, many with their doors busted out or left open. There are homes that haven't been touched in what feels like an eternity but they still have furniture and the remnants of the people who lived there previously. Cars and bikes are littering the streets that are in varying shapes of usability. The more you look, the more unsettling everything becomes...

First Punishment: As a show of good will, your hosts will give you a very easy, albeit potentially embarrassing, task to carry out for your first punishment.

There will as few secrets in Penance as possible. Transparency is key to atonement. You will reveal at least one sin in a way that will be permanent, which means via tattoo, scarring, branding, or other permanent means somewhere on your person. For those who are unable to be injured or scarred, there will be enchanted items that will be able to pierce even the toughest skin, cut deeper than even increased healing can recover from. All necessary items will be available at the tattoo parlor in town. If desired, characters may also make an announcement on the network listing their sin(s) for judgement from their peers.

Please note that if the character insists they are free of sin, they will be provided a list of what they're guilty of by their hosts.

Sin Lounge: A new business has been reopened by your generous hosts! And it was even given a modern makeover. It will be located by the tattoo parlor. The front of the lounge is a normal bar, with plenty seating for all citizens. In the back room, that's where the real fun begins. No one said that atoning has to be something done alone, or be self-inflicted. Located in the back of the lounge is a room made for atonement and torture. Any sort of device that you can think of can be found there ranging from knives, potions, whips, to more archaic torture devices than one could know what to do with. If you can think it up, chances are that you can find it in this lounge.

Getting to Know You:
Your hosts would like you to make an effort to get to know one another. They would like you to list on the network what your hobbies are, what your sins are, and how many punishments you have willingly undergone since arriving. The sky's the limit! Just share and get to know one another.

As a note, all threads may be considered game canon if all parties agree. Hope you have fun and thank you! The game officially opened February 1st and both apps and reserves are open indefinitely. Please stop by and join us!

Hey all, I'm Tania and I'm bringing an OC of mine to this here party!

Last time I RPed in one of these it was on on Livejournal, so I may be a little rusty but I'm super stoked to be a part of this game!

Ianchus is the last heir of a royal family that's been murdered in a coup, but he'd rather die than go back and take the throne, and...well, that's what happened! And now he's here! Question is, how do you punish a masochist?

I would love any and all plotting/CR! I can be reached by PM @ this journal, or Highway St★r#5609 at Discord. I have a super old Plurk that I might end up dusting off but I'm pretty terrible at keeping up with it (it's "Vaderetro"). Since he's an OC feel free to ask any clarifications OOC.

Cheers!

Yo! I'm Carrie and I'm bringing you Mello from the ancient manga, Death Note.

For anyone who is canonblind: frustrated, second-place schoolboy becomes mafia-affiliated criminal becomes international terrorist all in the name of becoming Number One. There are notebooks on missiles and leather and an explosion or two with more introspective monologues than should be legal.

Excited to be in a newly-opened game and am always down for plotting! You can hit me up on discord (Pendancy#9139) or add me over on Plurk (

LiterallyOnFire )

I also play him over at

ryslig and love CR of all types, so let's do some stuff.

anewhero

Hey! I'm dark, I play Marcus Wright, a former criminal made into a hybrid terminator. Half human half terminator. If you want to chat, send me a plurk pm at username="redscribbles" or feel free to add me on discord at Jak/Marcus #4226

delilahs_death

Hey there! My name's Catharine and I'm joining with these evil little bastard right here, Dr. Jezebel Disraeli from the manga series Godchild/The Cain Saga. I realize this isn't a super well-known canon, so a basic overview of his character is Tragic Anime Villain Mad Scientist Doctor.

If anyone wants to reach out/plot something, I'm more than happy to set something up! Either PM this journal, or you can reach me at backwardschic@gmail.com (or you can message my Tumblr account, queenoftheimps.tumblr.com).

hundzahn

hi hello i'm ace; 25, genderfluid ( they/ey/he ) and today i bring to you katakuri from one piece. he's a secret glutton below his serious, honorable and prideful exterior. he's also a pirate in the notorious big mom pirates, with his mother linlin at the head of the crew; he's considered the strongest after linlin herself.

plus he's got big ol' monster teeth. >:) more info can be found in his app, and his info page is current under construction.

i'm looking forward to playing him here, in any case!

if you want to plot or anything, hmu on plurk (

sleightpunk ) or discord ( magicant#0246 ).

Test Drive #003

Welcome to Atonement's third test drive, and thank you very much for stopping by! We hope you enjoy your stay! Please refer to the prompts below for ideas, or simply make up your own! Whichever is easiest for you.

Prompts

Arrival: You don't quite remember how you arrived here. It appears that you're suddenly in a dead land with eerily red skies. The grass is dead, the trees are dying, and there's absolutely no sounds of life beyond your own footsteps, even if it feels like you're being watched somehow.

There are dusty shops that are still stocked with supplies, many with their doors busted out or left open.

If you can think it up, chances are that you can find it in this lounge.

If Things Were Different:
Your hosts would like you to share one thing that you will do differently once your debt is paid off on the network. Share how you will do better and what you will do with your second chance at life! Bond a little with your fellow citizens in a much more pleasant way.

As a note, all threads may be considered game canon if all parties agree. Hope you have fun and thank you! The game officially opened February 1st and both apps and reserves are open indefinitely. Please stop by and join us!

Hello, guys! Since February was not only a short month, but also the grand opening of Atonement, I decided to just keep to a simple check in rather than a full-on AC. Please leave a comment below to let me know you're still in the game! The check-in will be open until March 7th. I will post a reminder before it's over and if you don't respond, you'll be swept from the game!

Thanks, guys!

Hello there! My name is Shade and I bring you this self-righteous monster named Leo Flynn! He's from the book This Savage Song, part of the Monsters of Verity series. Leo looks human most of the time, but he's really a Sunai monster that eats human souls to survive by playing a song that sounds like the most beautiful thing in the world to the listener. So the town is going to look like one giant buffet to him. He'll try to behave himself.

Leo's personality is mixed between one of those street preachers who always tells you to repent your sins and a brutal thug. I've got more info on his journal if you want to take a look.

If you'd like to add me on Plurk, I'm at

Greetings all!

My name's Manda and I'm joining the cowboy party with Vasquez here!

He's a former outlaw with a whole laundry list of sins that he doesn't exactly feel very sorry for, but he'll be grateful to no longer be hunted, so he'll be approaching his penance in a way that suggests it's more about his selfish comfort of not having to worry about his head being shot off versus actual repentance.

I can be found on Plurk at

lovelyambition and I look forward to playing with all of you!

Test Drive #002

Welcome to Atonement's second test drive, and thank you very much for stopping by! We hope you enjoy your stay! Please refer to the prompts below for ideas, or simply make up your own! Whichever is easiest for you.

Please note that if the character insists they are free of sin, they will be provided a list of what they're guilty of by their hosts.

And the Forecast is...: As of this morning, there will be a steady rain over Penance that will darken the skies to black and fall as if somehow tainted and muddied, followed by a cold and harsh wind that will chill one to the bone if they dare to venture out in it... which may be necessary. The ground and roads will be slick and muddied, but there will be power outages due to the weather so staying in may not be necessarily more appealing. The rain will continue steadily for a week and be intermittent the rest of the month.

However, should anyone venture to the town square in search of warmth, there will be a large tent set up that is entirely illuminated regardless of whether the rest of Penance is or not. There will be supplies such as food and water for the taking, as well as a few old blankets for people to huddle under while they wait out the storm.

Two Lies and a Truth:
Your hosts would like to start a fun little game if everyone will take out their devices and connect to the network. Think of it as a bonding exercise! Everyone could use a little support down here... it keeps morale up after all. Everyone should tell three things they've done wrong in their lives and let others guess which one is the actual sin.

Don't worry, in this case, lying will not add any time to your debts. It's just a little harmless fun.

As a note, all threads may be considered game canon if all parties agree. Hope you have fun and thank you! The game officially opened February 1st and both apps and reserves are open indefinitely. Please stop by and join us!

Hey all. DA here, bringing you Goodnight Robicheaux from the 2017 Magnificent Seven movie.

Goody here is a former Confederate Soldier who made a name for himself about 15 years before the movie as a sharpshooter (we call them snipers now) during the Civil War. He was appropriately called the "Angel of Death". He became a bounty hunter after the war and ran into the love of his life, Billy Rocks, in a Texas saloon.

Goodnight has themes dealing with Post Traumatic Stress Syndrome (PTSS), The Confederacy, period typical racism and homophobia as well as drug/alcohol use. He has both a permissions page and an OPT OUT.

I am always open to plotting. I can be found on Plurk at

darkangel998

Hi, I'm Goldy and I play Eren Jaeger from the manga Shingeki no Kyojin.

Usually my tags come at odd times since I live in a timezone not many here seem to share. I should mention that this is my first game on here (I guess there is not much I can do wrong O.o)

For plotting or randomly saying "Hi", you can can find me on plurk under

preciousbrat

nothingtoknives

Hi everyone, I'm Peachie and I play Billy Rocks from The Magnificent Seven (2017 version).

Billy here's a bit of an enigma wrapped in a mystery- a man who's killed his way to freedom in the 1800s American West before accidentally falling in love with the sun of his life, Goodnight Robicheaux.

He does deal with some era-appropriate racism and homophobia, as well as drug usage- so please visit my permissions page if you want to opt out of CR with him. It IS screened!

If you want to plot something, hit me up on plurk (

peachkoala) or discord (Shadygrifter#6664)! Look forward to playing with you all.

thereneverwas

Rufus is here to be everyone's friend and possibly punching bag, if they need that instead of a friend.

My name is Cami and I'm super duper excited for this game, so please throw yourselves and your CR at me in abundance (please do not physically throw yourself at me, I'm small). Rufus is from the same universe as Atticus, which Liz made up, so if you have questions about it you should ask her and not me, I'm just here for the booze

You can hit me up on Plurk (

eolasemah) or Discord (cafiffle #2173), or look in a mirror and say "what could go wrong" three times to summon me.

mysteriumtremendum

he's here to cause trouble but he'll at least try to look good while doing it

I'm liz and I play Atticus! He's an OC from an original setting I've been playing around with for about a year, but the tl;dr version is he's a sorcerer/politician a bit obsessed with seeing the face of his god, and it's landed him in a heap of trouble--and now here, apparently.

Please feel free to ping me @ ragweed on plurk, or as middlemarching#9936 on discord.

Test Drive #001

Welcome to Atonement's first test drive, and thank you very much for stopping by! Please refer to the prompts below for ideas, or simply make up your own, whichever is easiest for you.

The grass is dead, the trees are dying, and there's absolutely no sounds of life beyond your own footsteps, even if it feels like you're being watched somehow.

First Punishment: As a show of good will, your hosts will give you a very easy, albeit potentially embarrassing, task to carry out for your punishment this month.

First: There will as few secrets in Penance as possible. Transparency is key to atonement. You will reveal at least one sin in a way that will be permanent, which means via tattoo, scarring, branding, or other permanent means somewhere on your person. For those who are unable to be injured or scarred, there will be enchanted items that will be able to pierce even the toughest skin, cut deeper than even increased healing can recover from. All necessary items will be available at the tattoo parlor in town. If desired, characters may also make an announcement on the network listing their sin(s) for judgement from their peers.

Please note that if the character insists they are free of sin, they will be provided a list of what they're guilty of by their hosts.

Settling: It's time to settle into a home in Penance, either alone or with roommates. There is comfort and safety in numbers after all...

Do try not to fight over housing if you've both accidentally chosen the same home... Your hosts will be very unhappy if you start a fight this early on over such a silly thing.

If settling down isn't something you feel like doing, you may go and explore anywhere that you'd like, including outside the gates. Please be aware that there may be demonic forms of all types of common animals living outside them that move swiftly and silently. They will vary in aggressiveness and tamability, so please keep this in mind.

As a note, all threads may be considered game canon if all parties agree. Hope you have fun and thank you! Game is set to officially open February 1st or when we reach a minimum of 10 players.
