All the girls who get kidnapped in games (Peach, Zelda, etc,) join together to try and get everyone who kidnapped them behind bars. They get help from the heros of the games (Mario, Link, etc,) Then they all by like spy's because they're spying on the villains and trying to arrest them. And they have spy gadgets.

They could present the games as evidence.

I've been toying with the idea of a Fire Emblem RP lately. I have a decent sense of where I want the plot to go (though I'm trying to avoid planning too far ahead lest the players be more interested in taking the plot in a different direction), and save for a few mechanics and rules, I know how I want it to run. That said, there are a few policies and mechanics I want input from other users on (specifically, I want input from users who might be interested in participating). I also want a decent sense of how many people would be interested to begin with.
Spoiler: Story and other details
Totally in.
Been praying for a non-social, plot driven, medieval technology era for a long time.
Plus Fire Emblem is awesome.

Because character-to-character conversations and the like probably won't require everyone, I'm thinking the "session" system will be reserved for battles and major plot points. Things like building up supports, shopping for supplies, and the like would more likely be adapted to the players' individual schedules. This would help ensure people more interested in story and character-to-character socialization won't get bored between sessions.

That's another issue I was considering. If we stayed true to the original games, death would be permanent. That might discourage players, though. My idea is that if you run out of HP, you will be wounded (needless to say, healing magic wouldn't help for a character who has run out of HP). Wounded characters would suffer a severe, but temporary penalty to all stats. This penalty would decrease and eventually go away completely as time passes, though it would decrease faster if the character in question sits battles out.
Pfft since the latest big hitter has a feature where characters can fall unconscious instead of death (As nintendo marketing probably hoped this actually convinced a couple of my friends to try it), I'd say you don't need to worry about doing that and not being true to the 'original games'.
Though the fact you plan on doing it with an actual RPG system is more interesting as opposed to standard story-driven combat is also pretty good.

As for the combat system, I'm trying to avoid Mary Sues, and while a conventional RPG combat system will only prevent characters from being unfairly overpowered, that's still one Mary Sue trait I won't have to personally address when characters are submitted.

Fair enough. Again, that particular mechanic is still open to discussion. Besides, there are other liberties I've taken that deviate from the original games (for starters, no male-only or female-only classes, though that's another aspect that I want input on before implementing).

So simply say there has to be character flaws on the application sheet or weaknesses or something. I'm sure you can pull some Mary-Sue-Guarded template offline somewhere.
Though I can't remember coming across so many male-only or female only classes but anyway.
Shouldn't you make a separate sign up an planning topic instead of using the sticky?

Classes like Pegasus Knights, Mercenaries, Barbarians are gender specific.
And Pierre, it's not a good idea to tell an admin where he can or cannot post!

ah right those ones, I'd always felt it was more a case of sprite limitation than actual gender exclusivity for some of them.
Though for Pegasus Knights I'm sure one of the games claimed it was a traditionally female order but whatever.
