INTEREST CHECK

INTEREST CHECK
Hi there! This is Shay, and this is my silly little shipping game idea. Welcome to the HOLIDATE interest check! Thank you for giving the game a look! HOLIDATE is a shipping game themed around winter holidays and Christmas romance tropes specifically. It borrows heavily from Are You the One?, both the reality television show and [plurk.com profile] starswept's short-term game from earlier this year. The premise is borrowed and tweaked with her permission!

HOLIDATE is a short-term, private game that will run on a weekly event schedule from Halloween to mid-December, with an "off" week with no major events to accommodate Thanksgiving. Each week, characters will compete in romantic challenges and dating scenarios while trying to find which other participant the game runners have selected as their Perfect Match. If all matches are found by the end of the game, every character will win a "Holiday Miracle" and be able to have a wish of their choice granted. While the basic structure is reminiscent of other short-term setups like murder and mafia style games, it is my intention that HOLIDATE remain low-pressure throughout its run. The short duration and end goal for the characters will still create the incentive for rapid CR development; however, participation in every single event isn't mandatory. This is my Christmas gift for my friends and I want to make it a positive, cozy experience.

If you haven't already, please check out the premise, rules, and FAQ for more information about the game. If you have any other questions, I'm happy to answer them as well! I'm very excited to play with everyone, and I hope the premise has piqued your interest!

The interest check is now running! Go wild in here, enable each other, hype one another up, and most of all, remember to make some holiday wishes come true!

Your Name: Amy
Contact: yoshi#5817
Character Considerations: i present two idiots

• Sena (Xenoblade 3): the girl with the gall, third wheel extraordinaire, can and WILL benchpress you, something something hammertime. she has never!! been!! in a relationship before!! and doesn't even know what dating is supposed to be like because she was born as a child soldier and War Never Changes. so i think she'd be really fun to toss in and watch her live and learn 😌 also pls let her awkwardly thirdwheel someone

(i need icons for her, send help)

• Megumu Iizunamaru (Touhou): capitalist whore. gaslight gatekeep girlboss 😉 by day, she's the head honcho of the crow tengu; by night, she's a total party animal and is just here to have a good time. i mean she's always here to have a good time regardless of the time of day but whatever. she would ALSO be fun to toss in i think, by virtue of her being a freak. her special talents include making onigiri, making money, and making enemies <3

Certainty: i haven't properly RPed in like a million years and have never been in a private game before but i miss RP and would like to give it a shot!!!
Questions, Comments, Concerns?: girl help
Anything else?: YIPPEE!
