The First Signs of Madness.

?Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again but expecting different results.?

Stereotype and assumption are dangerous; they lead to humanity recognising a carefully crafted falsehood as the truth. Without direct experience, it is easy to believe a fa?ade that plays to the generalisation of the uninformed mind.

To the uninformed, it most certainly looked like the inside of an asylum.

When unfamiliar with health care, anyone in a certain uniform becomes a nurse, anyone with a stethoscope and a smart shirt becomes a doctor; ID tags are gospel. When lead to believe that the very workings of your mind have turned against you, do questions on the validity of your imprisonment become the ramblings of insanity?

?Why am I here?!?
?You know why you?re here.?
?But how did I get here?!?
?I?m sorry, but that?s a question you need to answer on your own.?

There are common rooms, lonely cells, and strange happenings in the darkness; is it strange, that nobody you meet knows how they arrived? Surely it?s not right, to have no contact with the outside world? But the staff never change, visitors never come, and it?s oh, so easy to begin to believe that there is no getting out.

?What?s happening to me?!?

The First Signs of Madness is an adventure/intrigue style RolePlay where players awake to find themselves inside what appears to be the stereotypical assumption of a mental hospital. Drawing on films, books and popular culture, the setting is designed to be familiar in the most chilling sense. Each player has their own room, and no memory of how they arrived therein, although all of their other memories appear to be intact. Strangely, the door is not locked at all...

The aim of the game is to follow a series of tasks and challenges set by the mysterious hospital staff while attempting to form alliances and eventually discover the true secret of the asylum. Escape is the final shining goal, though whether the characters escape with their sanity intact is another matter entirely...

If anyone is interested in taking part in this idea, or would like more information, please post here.
