Roleplay:Passports to Terror

Passports to Terror is a roleplay held on fanfiction.net. It tells the story of Umbra City, a place covered in a force field that prevents anyone from leaving, but lets anyone in. Sonic, Tails and Amy learn about the place and team up to try and discover what causes the force field, as it isn't Eggman's doing.

Format
This roleplay's format is different from other, straightforward roleplays. It is divided into "missions", which are all smaller story arcs. After a few missions are completed, new ones are made available. The roleplay also functions with a HP system as well as a luck system. On some occasions, the gamemaster would use the luck system, which consists of a simple virtual "coin toss" by an Internet randomizer. Such instances include:
 * If a door is locked or unlocked;
 * If the monsters catch a protagonist or if all the protagonists escape;
 * If the monsters saw the protagonists or if they didn't;
 * If the monsters hit the protagonists or not, or if the protagonists hit the monsters or not; In that particular case, there are two different options:
 * The monster can take X hits before it is defeated. In which case, there is no Hit Point Die roll, and the creature's HP goes down by 1 for each hit.
 * The monster, usually the mission boss, has a set amount of HP (usually, the mission's number X 100), When rolling the die to see if the protagonists successfulyl hit the opponent, and if they do hit the opponent, how much damage is dealt.
 * Other special cases are bound to happen. One mission will include a monster detector. Most other cases will indeed work with the "coin toss" system, though some others will requires omething else.

Story
Tails, aboard his plane, flies near Umbra City when the built-in computer tells him not to approach. Further questioning of the computer and Tails finds out that all planes that flew low enough in the 20km radius of Umbra City crashed into invisible walls as they were trying to fly back up. Sensing something strange going on, Tails asks Sonic for help, but Sonic goes through the force field and gets stuck in there without an Emerald. Tails goes back to his workshop to pick up an Emerald, but stumbles upon Amy, who decides to embark with him. Tails brings the Emerald to Sonic, but learns that in the meantime, Sonic decided to help a weeping child. Apparently, that child's mother has been kidnapped by a witch living in a mansion. Sonic finally convinces Tails - and Amy - to help him in this.

During this mission, Sonic's team suddenly gains help in the form of the Fearless Three, the resident heroes. Or that's how they call themselves. The Fearless Three are hunting down supernatural events. Umbra City is plagued with supernatural events. It's so common that all the citizens of the city have grown used to it and aren't fighting back anymore. That's especially bad, because some cases involve the disappearance of people. The Fearless Three explain the Sonic team that the force field is probably going to stay until the whole supernatural plague is stopped.

The Fearless Three complete this first mission with the Sonic team and fight a witch named Frenegonde, who used the youth of other women to become young again. When defeated, the witch revealed that she has been turned dark because of a strange dark purple precious stone, which they dub Dark Shard. The witch frees her prisoners and those regain their true age, The witch also gives the team a box that seals evil energy, and the team uses it to seal the first Dark Shard and all those that will be discovered afterwards. Because there will be more!

Completed Missions (Summary)
1. Described in "Story" section. The villain was a wiccan turned witch under the influence of the Dark Shard. She was making a youth potion by stealing the life essence of younger women kidnapped around the city. Ironically, like everyone else, once freed from the Dark Shard, she becomes a nice person again. She even helps the Fearless Three by giving them the box that seals evil energy.

2. The case involved a teacher at a hig school who was called a "vampire" or a "cannibal", what with turning students into near-lifeless zombies. The Fearless Three and Sonic's team end up fighting not just a few zombies, but all the students, in an epic ending. However, they defeated the teacher, turning everyone back to normal.

3. It's the full moon, and at night, some toys come to life at night. It could have been a good idea to fight all the toys, but the team decides instead to go investigate the shop all the toys came from. They end up visiting a factory and fighting an evil man trying to spread evil through town by having toys come to life every night and terrorize the families. It's also revealed during this mission that the Shards seem to have a conscience, because the one the man wore was taking over his mind and speaking to him!
