Description:

Kingsport was a new-england island town like any other. People for the
most part were born here, lived and worked here, raised their families
here, and eventually died here. Some lucky kid might graduate from the
local high school and go off to college, but for the most part people
were happy where they were. They were settled. They had roots. This
was their home. They were all quite happy living the American Dream.
And then they began to Awaken...

Kingsport is a free-form pbem-rpg that may contain dark themes within
it.  You will play one of the humans within the town who might (or
not) be slowly changing into something else. Demon, Vampire, Werewolf,
Fae, whatever creature your imagination would like to explore.  You
will not wake up in the morning and *poof* you're a new
something-or-other. The change itself is slow and over time, and you
are free to explore what those changes bring about, and how your
character deals with them at their (and your) own pace. You also do
not necessarily have to play someone that is changing, but could play
a non-changing human and explore what they have to deal with normally
in their day to day lives; and how they handle seeing their spouse,
offspring, or friends and neighbors around them change. ALL characters
begin the game as a normal human.

All prospective players are required to submit a character sheet for
approval before posting; only made-up characters allowed.  This game is
rated NC-17 for the possibility of violence, gore, nudity, language, and
adult situations. Please take this into account before you apply.
