The Watchers Roleplay Idea Discussion

Good day. It is I, Cyberweasel89

I have the idea to turn my idea of The Watchers into an RP.

Generally, the members of The Watchers will be attempting to rid the world of who fights or engages in combat, in an attempt to bring peace to the world.

Now, I'm wondering what everyone thinks the rest of the RP should be about. I'm a little apprehensive about letting people RP as canon characters, so I'm thinking the RP should be a "next generation" type thing. However, I will allow people to RP as characters who are related to canon characters.

However, the rest is open to suggestion from all of you. Should it follow the ninja's everyday lives while trying to ge to the bottom of The Watchers' plot? Should it start off normal, but then the revealing of The Watchers throws the entire ninja world into chaos? Should a group of ninja, Genin through Jounin, be recruited to find and battle The Watchers, either on their own or part of a team? It's all up to you guys. I want to make an RP that everyone can enjoy. However, I cannot tolerate godmodding (general overpowering), and will not stand for it.

If we do go with some characters being the offspring of canon characters, we must settle on pairings so as to avoid confusion. We cannot have one character be the son of Shikamaru and Ino, but another character be the son of Shikamaru and Temari.

The only pairing I am adamant on is Naruto x Hinata (though I have yet to see a fanon offspring of these two that I can agree with, but that is beside the point). The rest of the pairings are up for suggestion. I likely will either choose based upon a majority vote, or choose based on which pairings on the most popular on Fanfiction.net. You can vote for mutliple pairings, but no character may appear twice in a single person's voting. So if you vote for Sakura x Sasuke, you cannot vote for Sakura x Lee. Also keep in mind that my personal feelings will be irrelevant when choosing the pairings. For example, I prefer Sakura x Rock Lee, and I dislike Sakura x Sasuke for various reasons that I prefer not to mention at the risk of starting a pairing debate. However, Sakura x Sasuke is possibly the second most popular pairing on Fanfiction.net, so if Sakura x Sasuke gets the majority vote, I have no choice but to comply.

So, ideas? Suggestions? Questions? Opinions? Fell free to mention them in Talk:The Watchers Roleplay Idea Discussion. And please do not forget to title your discussion posts with a title between four equal signs. And do not forget to sign your name at the end with four squiggly lines. Okay?
