Chatterbox: KYNGDOM™ RP Board
SOCS Boarding School
SOCS Boarding School RP!
This roleplay has been restarted! Check the BIG Cadet Academy roleplay.
This is an RP about the Society of Concerned Scientists' boarding school. The idea is, as some of the students are getting ready to graduate, they meet some of SOCS' human experiments and realize the reality of what SOCS does after being manipulated their whole lives. Then they can decide if they want to help the experiments and escape SOCS, or be a part of SOCS anyway.
You can have as many characters as you like, and they can be a student or an experiment. However, I think it's best there be only up to six characters who are experiments for the time being. We might add more later, but I think it will be more balanced if we begin with a smaller number. And two of my characters are experiments, so that leaves four experiment slots left. Experiments can be human, animal, or some combination of the two. Students must be human. I believe the original SOCS Boarding School was all girls? That's up to you guys if we should keep it that way, if you'd like to change it we can.
Here's the charrie form for the RP:

I'd like to join, but I don't have time to make a character right now. Could I reserve an experiment character slot?

Yeah but I think that SOCS was destroyed, so there is no school anymore
I feel like we shouldn't ignore the rp where they destroyed it, it went along similarly to how I thought this rp would go. But if you want we could say that in a moment of desperation as it was dying, SOCS merged with BIG or something? Idk I haven't read the Kyngdom guide in a while
I still would like to do this rp, I didn't want to abandon it but there's reasons I left it quiet for a while
What do you all think?
(November 21, 2023 - 7:00 pm)
I think it would be cool to still do this rp, so we could have BIG merge with SOCS...not that I'm exactly sure how that'll work cuz kyngdom's still confusing for me.
(November 22, 2023 - 1:47 am)
Oh, yeah. Sorry, I thought that SOCS had merged with BIG, but now I see that that was just a speculation and not necessarily truth. I definitely don't want to abandon this RP though, how exactly did SOCS get destroyed? Would it have been able to pick itself back up/merge with BIG? And if so, what changes would it have overgone? And what would be the difference between SOCS and BIG then? Would SOCS just be another part of BIG?
And, sorry, would you be able to give me a link to that RP if possible?

I read this months ago, Celine, and I didn't read the actual roleplay. I think it was in the Kyngdom guide. I don't know where in the guide, though. I know that the leader of the boarding school was killed by a student at the school, and SOCS crumbled, but that's all I know. I'd offer to find it in the guide for you, but I don't know if I'll have time this weekend (upcoming callbacks for the school play + family visiting = not much time to comb through the extremely dense guide). If anyone has the time and wants to try and find it in the guide, that would be amazing.
(November 22, 2023 - 7:35 pm)
Here's a portion I found in the guide about it: Headmistress Rigga also died at the hands of Mina and her now-also-deceased friend (read: romantic partner) Baron, and the SOCS was largely if not entirely dissolved.
I also noticed that BIG and SOCS are rivals, so if we made them merge, we'd probably have to do an alliance of some sort.
