Sam Yoshida’s Weird Science Day Off
Eagleville located in Maine can be considered one of the most picturesque towns in America. The biggest crime’s reported are related to parking tickets. But young Sam Yoshida believes that there is something sinister going on.
June 1st, 1987
Sam is a 13-year-old boy with a lively imagination, or that’s what his mom always says when he shares his theories with her. There have been several mysterious disappearances all over the county. Aliens. It has to be aliens right? Or that’s what Sam thinks anyway. Everyone else just brushes him off, who would listen to the lone weirdo? The tall-tales of a boy. But Sam swears he’s seen something in town. A tall, dark, and brooding figure in the corner of his eye that vanishes when he turns around. He’s all alone in this. That is until one day he goes to his secret clubhouse and he finds a surprise in the form of his childhood heroes…and other characters from fiction that have materialized into the real world.
Not looking a gift horse in the mouth Sam’s through the moon with meeting his idols and conscripts the group to try and find out the mystery of the town, as well as trying to find a way to send them all back home to where they belong.
Will they uncover a great secret, or will they find out that the imagination of a 13-year-old boy can sometimes be misleading? Their mission will take them through the seasons and a trip to at least one mall, to find the truth.
Premise: While player interaction is always important the choices you make in this roleplay can drastically alter the narrative and even cause it to end prematurely before anything has been solved. Interacting with the townsfolk can change what you can and can't do as well. Earning the trust of the local gossip might give the group clues to solving the mystery. Not to mention that Sam's an impressionable kid where the choices of the group can lead him down very different paths and leave him a very changed kid before it's all over.
Character requirements: Since it is 80s themed the character requirement is that you have to roleplay a character from something created in the 80s, or characters created later that are set in the 80s like say Stranger Things or Grand Theft Auto: Vice City. Characters from a later era reboot etc is also possible, for example, if you want to roleplay one of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles from one of the later shows or films it is perfectly fine to do so. Or if you want to roleplay a Transformer it does not have to be one from the G1 era.
HOWEVER! If you are genuinely struggling to think of a character that fits the theme then it's perfectly fine to pick someone outside of it.
Character sheet
Appearance: Self-explanatory. Just a picture is fine.
Name: What is your character's name? Do they generally go by an alias/nickname?
Age: Chronologically, how old is your character?
Canon: What does your character originate from?
Powers / Abilities / Equipment: What is your character capable of, and if they have notable items they carry around, like weapons, is there anything special about them? In any case, even just a Wiki link is fine.
Short Bio: What is your character's backstory in a nutshell leading up to how they came to come here? Once again, pretty much just a Wiki link is acceptable.
