I'm so tired today. Take the Ringleaders of the group.

So I mentioned that I was a little nervous about talking about the plot and it still stands but uh. Basically, the friends all live in reality. And their "reality" is like our reality (obviously with exceptions that I make to the current time line) but some people can create portals. The portals lead to other dimensions. Some are alternate dimensions similar to reality. Some are dimensions to peaceful lands. Some are dimensions to magical lands.

This dimension maker can lead his friends to an alternate dimension in hostile lands with violent monsters but. The thing is. When they die in the other dimension, they just get booted back to their reality. So the Ringleader (Real) recruits his friend group to go die for fun, like a very mentally stable young adult would do.

Also, this is not the same in every dimension. It's simply the same dimension destination every time, so Ringleader (Real) isn't about to generate a portal to some Other Dimension where death could be permanent. He's content just traveling to the one violent dimension.

#my characters #it literally just started with me designing a group of people in a circle #which made me go haha circle of life hey wait the game of life hey wait lets make it the game of death #thats it thats the whole conception of the plot was my brain during my brief tumblr break jumping word association #but its been fun to think about at least because im very happy to do the opposite of tragic tropes #the most angst i get is not even very angsty since they just. die and get booted back to reality #but the game aspect does come in with the omnipotent scorekeepers (the friends dont really know WHAT they are)#but basically they get graded on their deaths after they visit the dimension a few times #and now its a game of death where you wanna get a high score #but the omnipresent watching scorers are just fascinated by these humans cause their dimension doesnt HAVE humans #so now the 12 (and eventually 13) humans are their blorbos #the omnis just really like those lil humans those are their fun lil guys #and they can text the dimension maker in their dimension (if he is in reality he cannot get a text though)#im so tired today holy moly #i really might have said too much i feel like this might be really stupid idk #might go edit this later and delete the tags and text lmao im so self conscious RIP to me
