Xiaolin Showdown RP
Hey! Just wondering if there's any interest for a Xiaolin Showdown RP on this site before I start compiling a list of Shen Gong Wu!
I haven't really put any effort into figuring out the plot or setting of this particular RP, but I think it could provide an interesting platform for PvP that could be really fun! Here's my idea of the mechanics:
Alternatively, all PCs could be part of the same Xiaolin temple and compete against a Heylin temple of NPCs, though that would require significantly more work on my behalf, so… no. Thoughts, questions or concerns? |
Could you please explain, to members (including me) who don't know, what this is? (the monks, the abbreviations, the setting, etc)
|
Right, absolutely.
Xiaolin Showdown is a cartoon that aired in Kids WB from 2003-2006. Here's the blurb from Wikipedia for practicality's sake: Set in a world where martial arts battles and Eastern magic are commonplace, the series follows four young Xiaolin warriors in training who battle the Heylin forces of evil. They do this by protecting Shen Gong Wu (ancient artifacts that have great magical powers) from villains that would use them to conquer the world. Typical episodes revolve around a specific Shen Gong Wu being revealed which results in both sides racing to find it. Episodes usually reach a head when one good and one evil character must challenge each other to a magical duel called a Xiaolin Showdown for possession of the artifact. Essentially, the idea would be to base each "chapter" of the RP on an episode format from the show: several Shen Gong Wu are revealed, PC's go to collect them for themselves, those that get passed on are collected by NPC antagonists, rinse and repeat.Like I said, I haven't really worked on the setting itself at all (and don't really intend to if there isn't much interest expressed), but I think it'd be a really cool platform for a PvP-style RP since journey RPs tend to be more cooperative. |
Alright.
You mention having these opponents in the OP be PCs but you just mentioned NPC antagonists. Wouldn't you allow the player to play as an antagonist? |

That being said, nothing is entirely concrete in regards to that as of right now, I'm just trying to gauge interest in the concept itself before I move on to flesh things out. |
