Hope Is Not LOST RPG
Welcome!
Plot
Oceanic Flight 815, bound for Los Angeles, left the airport in Sydney, Australia, with 324 passengers and crew members on board. Each one of those passengers had family and friends back at home waiting for their safe return. What they didn't know was that Oceanic Flight 815 would soon crash on a small, remote island somewhere in the Pacific Ocean.
When the plane failed to land at LAX airport in Los Angeles, everyone feared the worst for the doomed plane. But a small group of family members held fast to the belief that the people they loved would still be found alive. Slowly, they began to get in contact with each other and form a rapidly growing alliance, bonded together in their determination to find their loved ones safe and sound.
Meanwhile, Penelope Widmore, daughter of wealthy businessman Charles Widmore, has been searching for years for her lost love, Desmond Hume, convinced in her heart that her true love is still alive. By spying on her father, she has learned of a mysterious island in the Pacific and believes Desmond has landed there. As she hears about Oceanic 815 and the desperate hopeful families and their attempts to find what really happened to the plane, she realizes that there's a chance the plane might have landed on that same island. So she joins forces with them, offering her considerable resources to help them find the island, even as her father sends a competing ship to search for the island... with something other than rescue on his mind...
Now, with the lives of Desmond and everyone on the island at stake, Penny prepares to send her own rescue crew, unaware of the power struggle between her father and Ben Linus. She's even planted her own spy on board her father's freighter! Who is it? Will he or she get caught, or be the one to help save everyone? Which group will come out on top?
With enough money and determination, you can find anyone.

RPG Notes
The Obligatory Disclaimer: This RPG is based on the ABC show LOST. We do not own the show or the characters, and we are not affiliated with ABC or Bad Robot in any way shape or form. We are just fans.
Dead Characters: For the purposes of this RPG, we are assuming that all of the characters who died, both on and off the island, are still alive and well. Remember that this is an alternate reality RPG. Dead Others and Freighter characters are also alive and well.
I want to be Kate: Note that, although this is based on LOST, you cannot be Kate or Sawyer. For the purposes of this RPG, we can’t have separate action taking place on the island. Therefore, the only “on-island” characters that you can play are those associated with Ben Linus and the Others. You may not play an 815 survivor.
The Timeline: The story will begin with the finding of the dummy version of Flight 815. Your characters will show reactions to it, and build from there. The idea is that the family and friends of the crash victims will slowly get together, making connections via the media and other methods, and you will all come together into one location, until you are approached by Penelope Widmore.
Family and Friends: I know that many of the family members of the people on the island may not seem to be the most glamorous roles, but they are very important. Please consider joining as one of them.
The Media: What does this section mean? This is where your characters must try to get your story out there. This is necessary, so that you can make contact with other family members searching for survivors of 815. Write short interviews with yourself. Start a blog. Create imaginary messageboard. Just have fun with it.
The Mystery: As Charles Widmore assembles his crew for the Kahana, Penny will approach one person to be her spy on the boat. That spy maybe one of the following people:
1. Daniel Faraday 2. Charlotte Lewis 3. Frank Lapidus 4. Miles Straume 5. Naomi Dorrit 6. Regina 7. Minkowski 8. Michael Dawson/Kevin Johnson
I am not going to tell you who the spy is. Only myself and the spy will know, and I will pick it at random out of a hat. Your job, especially if you are on the freighter, is to figure out who it is. You MAY NOT talk about it via PM or any other method, with other members of the freighter crew!!! You're not working together on this... it's each man (or woman) for himself! The rest of the freighter crew will receive a top-secret dossier from me that will tell you where your loyalties lie. Based on that dossier, you must decide what to do with the spy, if you figure out the identity of that person.
Please note: You will not receive your dossier until the ship sets sail. The ship will not set sail until the survivors have started to join together. So we need that part of the story to move!
The Others: The Others will do anything to keep Widmore from finding the island. But some, again, have different loyalties. You will also receive dossiers containing that information and what to do with it. The Others can also leave the island as they please…. They have secret ways.
Original characters: Yes, original characters will be permitted. However, your original characters must fall into one of the following categories:
1. 815 Family & Friends 2. Freighter Crew 3. Others
If you are going to be a family member or friend of an 815 passenger, you need to have a detailed explanation of who you are related to, and how.
