(So this thread used to be a thing and I am hoping to make it a thing again. Basically you can bring in any character from any world ( your own personal RP characters, pop culture characters, even you yourself if you like) into the pub. This is also a character workshop. I believe writing a good story is an art, and all great artists practice, so any and all are welcome to employ their word smithing here. It is a drop in/drop out at your own prerogative. However you should be considerate of anyone you begin an interaction with. Post your regular posting times etc, blah blah blah, you all know the rules).
Between the worlds and universes and dimensions that great stories take place in lies a place between the places. "Now what kind of place might this be?" You ask me, to which I respond "Good question my friend". This place is the one that almost (mind you, I said almost) every conceivable world has. You guess it, the tap house, the public house, the bar. Apparently everyone loves alcohol (if you didn't know that, you probably should just go find a digimon thread
"How does it work?" our young adventurers ask.
"Very astute and scholarly question, very good." I would reply.
It is simple. Anyone can enter the Pub (which is, by the way, its actual name: "The Pub") from their respective dimensions. One can also travel to a different dimension, so long as they are accompanied by a resident of said second dimension. The means by which they enter the pub from their own dimensions depends on the nature of the dimensions. Some use science, some use magic. In some dimensions, it might be a hidden physical door, obvious or hidden (like, say....maybe a Wardrobe
The means by which one comes to the pub are as diverse as the dimensions and worlds from which they come. Also, time seems to move differently depending on the home world. Everything seems relative in this place.
The owners of the pub are an older couple, Nicholaus Kin and his lover, Anastasia Romanovesky. Kin is an old psionic, weary of adventure in his and many other worlds. His abilities are wide and his many years have made him an astute scholar in many fields. However don't take him for just an old croon, he still acts as his own bouncer when he needs to. His powers of telekinesis, mind reading and astral project (among others) are extraordinary, however they are limited in certain ways. He is a psychometrist, meaning his powers require physical contact of touch.
Anastasia Romanovesky, while older, has lost none of her spunk and fire to her age. She has been Kins companion through many adventures. A romance developed between them and while it was never made official, she considers herself Anastasia Kin (seeing as how so many different universes and dimensions have such varying ideas on marriage, it didnt make much sense to get married in only one dimension). In her respective world, she is called a "red energy user" This is primarily destructive energy, however with training and discipline, it can become a great tool for any purpose. She still has a bit of her old, raw nerve, loose cannon ways in her, and while she is normally cheery and well meaning, her temper has been an animal to contain for both her and Nicholaus.
And so these two weary adventurers decided to settle down, and upon finding an nice little pocket of subspace connected to a seemingly unlimited number of other worlds, decided to try their hand at the hospitality business. They built the three story inn and decorated it themselves. One will find paintings of many types, pictures of regulars as well as a few of the proprietors old friends. A few taxidermists handywork is displayed on walls, as well as a few artifacts from different dimensions. The bar is made from an amazing magical wood. The shelves can produce almost any sort of liquid imaginable. Kin and Ana have yet to disclose how it works.
The Pub is split into three floors and a basement. The main floor is a pub, complete with Kitchen, tables, bars and a few booths. The second floor is actually only a balcony with more seating. The third contains rooms for rent, as well as Kin and Anas. The basement is unused for the moment, however the owners are willing to negotiate with anyone who wishes to use it for their own purposes.
So come one, come all. Take a seat, order a drink and relax. Welcome to the Pub at the edge of existence! "But Hussmann! Do I need to put up a character sheet? Or apply?"
"No my good sir you do not. You simply need to exist as a character!"
Kin and Ana are at the bar ready to entertain any and all.
