Paradigm Wrestling; An Elseworld Tale

So, I've been thinking of an idea for a second now for a micro fed.

Basic idea of a micro fed for those not in the know is that it's an e-fed that operates within an e-fed and on said e-fed's board. Like, for example, a development fed could be a micro fed. It usually isn't run the same as the main fed, either in it's style or results or how often the shows are or an assortment of differences.

But my idea is a little different than a simple development fed.

Using the FIW original programming forum, I was thinking of running a micro fed that operates more like a TV show. Think Lucha Underground like, a little more out there, a little more like a serialized show. It runs for a season, a limited number of episodes, and after that it's done. Everything ideally gets wrapped up in a neat little bow at the season finale.

Along with that format, the fed would be run more of a hybrid of angle and RP based feds. My thinking is that I'll chat up anyone that joins, charting out a season long storyline for each member. When a match doesn't demand a certain finish or if their story likely has a down week, they'd find themselves in an RP based match. With all parties involved always knowing beforehand if they're in an angled match or an RP based match and all of the season finale matches ideally being decided on RPs and activity within the sphere of the micro fed.

Activity is key, RPs, segments, tweets, these will get your character & storyline a higher profile and wins when it isn't strictly RP based. This will factor into how the season finale takes shape.

The schedule will be once a month, with this season running for six episodes including the season finale. Six shows, one every month, doesn't demand a lot of time from anyone, nor does it take away from FIW.

Realistically speaking, the roster should have at least probably some FIW faces on it, if it's on the FIW Network. But they don't necessarily have to go by their FIW names, or real names, or their FIW gimmicks. If you've ever had an idea, or you think of something you'd be interested in doing, do it, without any backlash it could potentially receive if it fumbles in FIW. Ultimately they're serving as actors on a show.

Treat this as the subtitle says, an elseworld, a what-if scenario, because of this please be courteous and avoid mentioning FIW in Paradigm or Paradigm in FIW. A wink, wink, nudge, nudge style reference occasionally is fine, but they're supposed to be in different "realities".

I'll have a catch-all thread posted in the network subforum. First post will serve as a place of residence for bios. After that cards will go up there, then whatever RPs you lot post, then a show, then a new card. Rinse and repeat.

I'm going to post the application template below, if you're interested in joining, simply fill it out and PM it to me.

Finally if this proves to be a success, I'd be open to more seasons if there's interest. Likely the format I'd take is an anthology series, where each season has a different theme.

Now, allow me to get to the story setting...




[align=center]Posted Image[/align]

[align=center]Masks.

The world doesn't really remember when they started, Masks. Mutants, metahumans, freaks, monsters, demons, abominations, gods, they've been called all of these things through the ages. Some of them with freakish strength, some with unbelievable intelligence, others with incredible speed, and even some that can endure things that should be impossible to endure, some human, some not. Originally masked to allow the ancient kingdoms to know who and what they were, these kingdoms soon were ruled and felled by these beings.

In the city of Paradigm Falls, it's a little different, it has been for decades now. The biggest city in the country plays host to the deadliest game known to man, Paradigm Wrestling. Where all of these extraordinary men and women, and creatures battle for supremacy of not only each other, but of the entire world and its resources. Sometimes the good guys win the power struggle, sometimes they don't. It's all decided, as it has always been, in the Paradigm Pit arena in the heart of the metropolis.

In the past, some have used the power granted to them by these battles to play government, some have taken riches & run, and others still have made much darker decisions. Said power has been decided by the battles, and by those that hold the special artifacts at the end of the proceedings. The artifacts they use as championship rewards, the Shields of Unity, The Hammer of Honor, and The Paradigm Crown

Because of the broadcasts of these events throughout the years many of these beings have become the new celebrities of the world. The new rock stars and movie stars, replacing actors and musicians in the mass population's eyes and garnering all of their attention. Politicians and governments, and businesses all have tried to get a piece of the pie for these gods of the new era. Some relish the fame and fortune & media attention, others keep to the shadows and a select few try to live a quiet life outside of the pit.

Once again the call to arms has been sounded, and all roads lead to the pit...[/align]

They can be animated, I don't mind.

I'm not really what you'd call a graphics wizard, so we're likely not going to get anything pretty. Pic bases would be more for a reference point than anything.

Because it slipped my mind in the initial post, the first show will likely be the weekend after SOS. Gives us enough time to get everything together for our heroes & villains and give any participants time to RP.
