basic info
INFO
What is this?
Hi. This is Sweet Home, a PSL/two-week game made by Coco
The premise is that characters sign up (or someone else signs them up, instead) for a two-week program that is advertised as "A great way to meet and connect with new people!" Characters will be compensated at the end of the program with a tangible object of their choosing, whether it be money or a weapon or food. They will be sent to the Sweet Home program and live in the same household for two weeks, with an assigned, temporary job in town that they can work at while they're living here.
However, there will be OOCly randomly generated incidents that will happen to each character throughout the week. They'll often times be inconveniences to the characters of the mild and chaotic varieties.
Cool, how do I join?
Currently, we're capped on players, and they are all exclusive to my timeline.
How is this game formatted?
This trial run will go for two weeks. The format is as follows:
- Sunday: Every Sunday, I will post a weekly "schedule" that will consist of happenings throughout the week that characters can play with. These happenings can consist of anything happening to the home, character incidents, etc.
- Monday - Friday: Freeform play that you guys can do with the prompts given from Sunday.
- Saturday: An IC Gossip Roundup will be posted consisting of the characters' happenings from that week, good and bad.
Who can we play? Is there a cap?
Anyone over the age of 16+. Characters over 8'0" will be shrunk to human size. 2 characters per canon, with the exception of OCs, which will be capped at 4.
Are powers on?
Yep! The only "nerfs" are that characters will not feel that their power is at 100%. They can use them on the environment, to fight each other – but anything that would destroy the entire town is off-limits. If you want to cause property damage to the house, let me know.......sweats.......
What's housing like?
It's a modern, giant house that is equipped with state-of-the-art appliances. There's a large kitchen with enough space for several people to work in it, a living room area, several bedrooms with a bathroom in each one. This will be detailed more in the locations page.
Also, you're all in shared bedrooms! Have fun.
What if I have to bow out?
That's fine! Just let me know asap, and I'll probably end up putting your character on autopilot unless you request otherwise.
Is character death allowed?
I'd prefer it if it didn't happen unless it's hilarious. In that case, said character will respawn within 5 minutes but will still feel pain from the cause of death. Fighting is allowed, but generally trying to keep this as lighthearted as possible.
Do we get communication devices?
Yep! All characters will be provided with a cellphone that works...pretty much like a regular cellphone does. There will also be short IC character profiles (which I will put up before the game starts) that people can access through the cellphone. Enjoy!
My character doesn't know how to use technology!
Great! It's a good thing everyone will get a general debriefing upon arrival, officially before the game starts ICly. They will be shown an instructional Powerpoint upon acceptance to the program that details their assigned job, how to use their phone, and an overview of the town.
What if my character has special dietary needs (i.e. vampires)?
Great question! They will find what they need in a special section of the grocery store. Buy some blood bags or what have you, it's all good.
I have a question that wasn't answered here!
That's fine! There's a channel on the Discord that you can use for questions. I'd prefer it if they were asked there, actually, since we're all in it!
