As the title suggests, would anyone be interested in an RP taking place in the 20th Century?
It would be of a "Downton Abbey" setting, and in which the main characters are Pokemon, not humans. For those who aren't familiar with this British TV drama, Downton is about a family of aristocrats and their servants. They experience the change of aristocratic-ruled country, shifting into one that puts more focus on the common people. It turns a time of great prosperity into a time of great struggle. The wealthy have to learn to adapt to the changing lifestyle or lose all that they own.
The RP will start out at 1910 or 1911, where the royalty and nobles have power. The aristocracy have little to worry about, except for some small dramas within the servant's quarters, that is, until the year turns to 1914. An equivalent to World War I will break out, leaving the aristocrats with heavy responsibility. After this event, life for the people will not be the same, royalty and the commoners alike. As the years go on, more changes in culture will take place, and the RPers will show how these changes will affect the characters. The RP will end around 1927. Plus, about one real-life month will be equal to one year in the story.
There will be multiple family households, one representing each rank of nobility (Duke, Marquis, Lord, etc.). RPers will have to own at least one aristocrat and one servant of any household.
There are other ways to take part in the RP besides owning characters! We will need the assistance of historians, to aid in factual accuracy of the events during each time period, and stylists, who are knowledgable in the fashions, mannerisms, and other behaviors of people as the years change.
Personally, I'm super excited to make a RP like this, but I want to make sure my eagerness is shared c:
