Welcome to Crimton, a sprawling metropolis where crime runs rampant. Will you save this city from it’s damnation? Or plunge it further into hell?
In Crimton you can play as a Superhero/Supervillian/Private Investigator/Crime boss/corrupt businessman/Store owner/masked vigilante etc., let your mind run wild. Each class will have it’s own point system such as money/influence/fear/power that can be spent to buy goons, gear, equipment, territory etc.
Crimton is full of interesting NPCs for your character to interact with. If your character sees a guy/girl they like the look of, feel free to walk up and talk to them. They could shank you but it doesn’t hurt to make friends.
Doing something in someone else’s territory will be more effective than in neutral or your own territory but it can attract the attention of cops to that player and they could get revenge by burning down your hideout or some such. Be warned.
You will have to worry about your character’s mentality so be careful lest your character go completely insane and go on a murderous rampage. To increase your characters sanity, spend actions on calming things like watching a movie in a theatre, having a cup of coffee or going for a walk.
When you post your character, also post your turn and once you do that you will be invited to the discussion PM.
The rules:
1.I’m free to change these at anytime if I think it will work better
2.This thread is for turns only, keep the arguments and diplomacy and stuff out of it.
3.Every turn you can take two actions. You can increase your actions per turn by either hiring more goons/a sidekick or having a lot of territory. It will cost money/influence/fear/power to do either of these things.
4.If you are arrested by the police you will lose an action for a turn. You will be more likely to be caught the higher your wanted level is. You can spend money/influence/fear/power to decrease your wanted level
5.Alliances will give all players involved an extra action but the bigger the alliance, the more likely the police are to catch you.
6.If you are killed, you will restart at the hospital but you will lose territory and money/influence/fear/power.
7.I’m trying to make this very open-ended, if you want to try something just try it or ask in the discussion thread. As long as it’s not too OP or unsuited to a fantasy setting it should be fine.
8.Turns will be out every second Friday, if you miss this deadline, you miss your turn.
9.I control the police to keep you guys in check.
10.Be original with your characters. If you try and go around as Batman or Superman, You will be punished severely in-game and remember, I can and will google your characters to make sure.
11.Roleplaying will be rewarded. Metagaming won’t end well.
To design your character fill out the below.
Name of your Character/Criminal organization/Company etc.: Anything that doesn’t break the forum rules.
Class: Superhero/Supervillian/Private Investigator/Crime boss/corrupt businessman/Store owner/masked vigilante etc.
Hideout: Pick a building on the map. First come, first serve. But remember, the richer the area your hideout is in, the more likely you are to be arrested by police.
(If a superhero or villain)Superpower: What power your character has but nothing too OP. If your character is bullet-proof he can still be set on fire and etc.

•Crimton is set in the 1960s-1980s but not in the real world. So no trying to save JFK crap.
•There will be areas off the map such as the Prison that you can visit.
•Each turn can represent a day to a week, this is liable to change at any time.
•Nothing is off limits remember, you can do anything at all if you try hard enough.
