    ...


    The CONCOURSE ONE SPEAKERPHONE turns ON.

    A soft tune begins to play, as a canned and spicy female voice begins to drone.

    Ahem. Ah, yes, good ... I just love Paganini ... R-Right! uh-

    PERCIVAL LOWELL INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT.


    The largest airport of its denomination in the region, and a marvel of engineering and architecture. Outfit with state of the art ticket management technology, entertainment suites, restaurants, boutiques, lounges, and anything else you may fly a plane at, scattered across its THREE CONCOURSES. PERCIVAL INTERNATIONAL is a scintillating beacon of human ingenuity, hope, and genius, and radiates, sun-like, the luminous spark of future peace through mutual betterment.

    Aha!

    That is why I have brought you here, my WONDERFUL THESPIANS. Your existence in the cosmos is to be tested, and your survival of utmost importance. The SHOW MUST GO ON, as long as human ingenuity, hope, and genius exist. Your minds radiate, sun-like, as the luminous sparks of future peace through mutual betterment.

    It is 21 Messidor.

    Your flights will be leaving soon.

    But this is not to say you should fly from each other so soon. Human existence, it depends on others for comfort. Your flights may be off in different directions but your relations ground you to the dusty red earth that we all call our home.

    But will this be enough for my SEVEN ACTORS and ACTRESSES to GROW THEIR WINGS AND FLY INTO THE UNKNOWN?

    Your flight is leaving. Do not be late, little ones. All is for mutual betterment.

    Aha!


    ... The recording cuts off.

    CONCOURSE is a seven-player slotted puzzle-based role play that is currently in the works. It takes place almost entirely in the enormous PERCIVAL LOWELL INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT.

    The seven players take the roles of the seven slots, all of whom hold a basic backstory but are free to continue and be creative beyond this. CONCOURSE is based heavily on the relationships established between its eclectic cast of unique characters.

    On 21 Messidor, six of these seven people strike fate's chord when they share three different flights to different parts of the Country. They meet, greet, and part ways as the day of 21 Messidor ends, or so it seems.

    Not everything is right in PERCIVAL INTERNATIONAL.

    The roleplay is progressive; players follow a MAP provided as they attempt to move through the CONCOURSES. The major obstacles in this roleplay show themselves as PUZZLES AND CHALLENGES that our eclectic cast must traverse so they may continue their trek. Throughout their time, they shall be guided by the enigmatic voice relaying itself through PERCIVAL INTERNATIONAL'S SPEAKERPHONE.

    Death is permanent. Possibly ...

    Just stay away from the darker corners ...

    I am sorry this is extremely strange for an RP and I am not sure if it would even work here but alas here you are.

    Are you looking to develop anything further and that's why it's an interest check or are you just wondering if anyone would be interested in joining it now as it is?

    Willing to join/be interested. I have a basic plot structure and the like ready. All I would need to finish is some scenarios/puzzles/planning and the concourse maps, and we are good to go.

    Thank you for the interest, everyone!
