As the title may imply, I recently got an idea for an RP based on the game "Until Dawn." Without spoiling, the game features a number of stereotypical dumb college kids who have to survive until dawn on a spooky mountaintop with killers, ghosts, and monsters on the loose.
The RP would function the same way, with the RPers isolated in a spooky location (not necessarily a mountain, but we'll get to that in a bit), and hilarity ensues as all the cliches of horror descend upon them, just like the game. To be honest, that's as much of the story as I have planned out. That's because I need some input on a few things first.
MASSIVE SPOILERS FOR UNTIL DAWN BELOW
Thirdly, I want to explain an idea I have. An important part of Until Dawn is(are?) the characters and their relationships with one another. To accommodate this into the RP, once I have all of the characters accepted, I'm going to ask them to what their character's relationship with the other characters is, eventually stringing them all together, for example "A is: B's friend, C's friend, D's rival, and E's sister." The RPers would be able to communicate as they sort out who is what to who.
And lastly, I need help, because I've never done this before, GMing, I mean. I really like this idea and want it to happen, but I'm afraid I just wouldn't be able to keep up with something like this. I need someone to co-GM with me.
Alright, I think that's it, have a good day!

Spoiler:
The first thing I want to ask y'all is this: should the monster be Wendigos like it is in the game, or something completely different. You see, if it's a Wendigo, then I already have something to work with, but if it's something different, then people who have already played the game can still get a (un)pleasant suprise.
Secondly, there's the venue. Do you want it to be on a mountain like the games? Or some other spooky, scary location? This one doesn't really make as much difference as the above, but it's still important.
