![]() The "Lights? Camera? Action! Motion Pictures" RPG Director: spideyssuperfan Executive Producer: Kaboom This game is similar to the other RPG's on the Hype!, only it's based off of movie and film continuity. RULES: -Players can choose any hero in virtually every film ever made. Players who have proved themselves as good RPer's will also have the option to take up a second, or in some cases a third, character. No God-Like characters. -Everyone exists in the new Movie timeline. At whatever point you enter your character into the new universe, that is the timeline they must stay in. For example, if Marty McFly and Doc Brown start in this RPG when they're about to test the DeLorean for the first time, they wouldn't have access to the Hoverboard later in the RPG. -No Killing. Unnamed faceless NPC's may be killed, but not other, played characters. Someone else may want to take up the character, or they may be important to another story. -You can go anywhere on Earth, or travel off planet, but do so within your characters means. -You are your character, so act like it. Talk like them, use there dialogue. Do not exaggerate your powers, or pop-up here and there without explanation. -Several stories can be going at once, and you have the freedom to interact with other characters. - Time travel is permitted. However, time travel must have an intricate, well-thought out, and reasoned purpose. Given the massive possibility for error, TIME TRAVEL MUST BE APPROVED WITH A GAME MOD. -You must post at least once every two weeks, though it is preferred that you post more. If you go two weeks without a post without prior notice, your character is up for grabs. -You must have at least 50 posts on the Hype boards to be eligible to play. If you do not have 50 posts, send a PM to a game mod, including a detailed sample post and a one paragraph explanation of why you should be allowed to play. -And of course, all regular rules of the Hype! apply. -Have fun.

Hype! User Name: Master Bruce
Desired character: Michael Myers Is your character a 'good-guy' or a 'bad-guy?': Depends on what you'd consider the personification of pure evil. Bad-guy, for sure.Movie(s) that that character has appeared in: Well, the Michael I'll be basing mine off of has only appeared in, or rather, is going to appear in Rob Zombie's "Halloween". But Michael as a general film character has appeared in... Halloween Halloween II Halloween 4: The Return Of Michael Myers Halloween 5: The Revenge Of Michael Myers Halloween 6: The Curse Of Michael Myers Halloween: 20 Years Later Halloween: Ressurection Rob Zombie's Halloween Release date(s) of film(s): H1 (1978), H2 (1981), H4 (1988), H5 (1989), H6 (1995), H:20 (1998), H:R (2002), RZH (2007) Which of the following, if any, describes your character? Other: I'd consider Michael a slasher, more than an average joe or a schemer. He's a human being, but he is void of any and all emotions or remorse, and typically uses lethal means in order to kill his victims in the most brutal ways possible. Genre of film that your character stars in: Horror/Suspense Brief history of the character in their films up to the start of the RPG: Spoiler!!! Click to Read!:
Please write, in character, a two-paragraph (No more, no less) sample post. Please ensure that your post is in character, contains dialogue, and conforms to standard guidelines of the English language: (NOTE: I'm going to make it clear, right now, that I'll be writing Michael posts from outsider's P.O.V, mostly. That's really the only way he can be written, since he doesn't speak or emote, and displaying his thoughts would ruin the character's purpose.) - - - Smith's Grove Institution, 1973 The Tenth Anniversary Of Judith Myers' Death Samuel Loomis cleared his throat, as he stood amongst a panel of various doctors and colleagues that he had come to trust over the years. They all stared at him with reason, but also with a certain sense of annoyance. This had been the third hearing Loomis had called in the last few weeks, and they were growing impatient with him. But Loomis didn't care. He had lost the respect once found in his colleagues, because of this. This unforgiveable... unconcievable act, even upon the notion. The notion that the Myers boy could be released back into the public. "Perhaps I hadn't made myself clear to all of you in the first meeting, or the second.", Loomis began, a hint of dread in his voice as he began to speak on the matter. "What you're making is perhaps the most voluntary mistake of each and every one of your lives!" "Now Sam, that's enough.", One of the doctors argued. "You know it's not in your place to speak on the subject anymore. We came to our conclusion, much to your pleasing, months ago. It is not our concern if you simply cannot learn to let it go." "With all due respect, I am not here because of the results. I'm here because of the events that led to them!", Loomis protested. "When you petitioned for the release of that boy, I lied awake at night fearing it'd come to fruition. And all because you didn't, and still don't, understand just what exactly you're dealing with, here." "And what do you want us to do, Sam?", One of the others asked. "It's not as if we can execute one of our own patients." "That's exactly what you should do!", Loomis shouted. "I don't care how it's done... through electrocution, firing squad... I don't give a damn if you hang him, for godsakes! But that boy should not be allowed to potentially ever be released into the public." "For such the esteemed psychiatrist as we all knew you to be, Doctor Loomis, it seems you've lost hope in the very purpose of your profession.", The first responded, coldly. "Every man deserves a chance at rehabilitation, and a normal life. You used to know this better than any of us do." "Michael Myers is not a man.", Loomis cut off, a quiver in his own voice at the very name. Coming closer to the panel, Loomis stared at each of them with determined, withering eyes, as they saw a glimmer of horror that lied within them. They could see the shaking in his hands, as he hid them in the pockets of his jacket, as he mentally recalled the events following October 31st, 1963. The day that the Myers name became infamous, one of it's youngest members being the center of a controversy that had sent shockwaves through the state. Loomis knew this. He had been apart of it for a decade, now. "I once had hope, like yourselves.", Loomis began. "I once believed that any mind... any insanity was cureable. And make no mistake, I still do. But when I looked into that boy's eyes, even the first time... I wasn't staring into a soul. I was staring at... nothing. No amount of compassion. No hint of emotion. No glimmer, or hope of humanity. It was as if I had stared into the eyes of the devil himself..." Loomis turned. "And mark my words, ladies and gentlemen, if you were ever to reconsider your decision for his release... that's exactly what you'd be unleashing onto the world." As Loomis began to leave, not allowing his colleagues to protest or argue to what he truly believed to be fact, one doctor spoke up. "And how exactly do you know that the boy has it in him to kill again?", He asked. "His one victim, Sam, was his sister. And considering there is no more of the family left..." Loomis turned back around, a skeptical smirk evident on his face. "If you truly want to take that chance, then I suppose I may not be able to stop you.", Loomis stated, before his face shifted back to that horrorified look of seriousness he had given them before. "But may god help every last one of you, should it be done!" Storming out, Loomis grabbed his coat and began to walk down the halls. But upon reaching a certain door, Loomis paused, and hesitantly looked over. His hands shook again, as his breath shorted, upon viewing the figure inside. A young man, hunched over, staring at the wall infront of him through lengthened and dirty hair. He never once looked over at Loomis, and Loomis thanked god for that, as he whispered to himself. "Why are you still here?", He asked himself, hoping the figure could one day answer. "What evils are you planning, Michael?" Though he never looked, he had heard Loomis' words. And so began the count. The count to what would become the homecoming. The day the boogeyman lived. How many times per day do you plan on posting in character?: As many as needed of me. What, if anything, can you bring to this RPG? I've been told I'm a good writer. I don't know how good, exactly, but I hope something'll come out of my posts. If not a scare, then at least a clear appreciation for the character that used to scare the living bejeebus out of me when I was a kid. ![]() Do you know how to post pictures on the boards?

If the movie has been officially announced by the production company, I don't see a problem with it.

Not in my selected continuity. I'm going off of Zombie's remake, and the first film, more than Halloween 6. (I'm starting off at the beginning of H2, with original elements, given that Zombie's doesn't have a sequel yet.)

"Oh come off it you two!" Hermione threw in. This seemed to settle them down a bit. They sat there for a few minutes without talking. Until they heard some rustling in the bushes. They all jumped and drew their wands. After a stand still what made the noise came out. It was a rabbit. They all sighed and sat back down. "Wait if that rabbit got through our defenses than..." A flash of green whizzes past Ron's head. He dunks down at this. Harry jumps up "Expelliarmus!!" The wand flies out the Deatheaters hand. "Stupefy!!!" Hermione shouts.
