Good mornight to you :D! The Midnight Train has been chugging along for almost a year now, but recently we lost a couple of players and are looking for a few new ones to liven things up and fill the void. The first two chapters of the roleplay have been lost during the guildfall but if you're interested then I can bring you up to speed and summarize the events. However, while knowledge of past chapters would be helpful, it will not be necessary. We are currently nearing the end of the fourth chapter, and are looking for 1-2 people to hop in when the fifth chapter begins. We'll get to the interesting part soon enough, but for now here is what I will be expecting from interested RPers. + I expect a minimum of three good paragraphs. + We are looking for communicative players who do not shy away from OOC discussion or chatter. Communication keeps a RP alive, so if you'd rather not toss in your own ideas or help us out with plans then this is NOT the RP for you. + We have something called the [u]three day rule[/u], and we take this very seriously. If you wish to join us, you must be capable of posting at least once ever three days [Example: If I post on the first of September, I will post again on the 4th and you better have a post up by then.] +We also have something called the warning system. If you miss a cycle without telling us on the OOC, you will get a warning and if you get three of these warnings, you will be booted out of the RP. We value consistency and dedication, so if you'll be busy or away for some time please tell us in advance. Andddd now to the interesting part ^^! --- [center][img]http://i41.tinypic.com/21ox30j.jpg[/img][/center] [center][b]For more information, check the weebly: [url=http://themidnighttrain.weebly.com/]Information Site[/url][/b][/center] Have you heard the rumors about the midnight train? You haven't? That's a pity, why don't you take a seat then, friend? I'll tell you all about the midnight train to Nowhere. People say that once a year on New Year's eve an odd train of fleeting stars and neon lights rolls into the station. They say that if you see the midnight train, you'll find whatever you're wishing for inside it. All you have to do is believe, toss logic to the wind, and hop aboard. It sounds simple enough, appealing as well, but just not believable, don't you agree? They say the train is full of quirky passengers that aren't even human. I've heard of rabbits with rifles, mermaids with voices as heavenly as harps, and of mice who sing and ask for spare change. It almost sounds like a wonderland made by some bored kid, eh? I don't really believe it, but I won't judge you if you do. Still, the thought of getting what you wish for without losing so much as a penny is just great, right kid? They say that people are lured into the train by what they wish for the most and that those who do get on the midnight train are whisked away to a world unlike our own, to a place called Nowhere. They say that in Nowhere the buildings stretch infinitely towards the construction paper night. They say Nowhere is supposed to be some magical place. A place where trains zip through the sky at the speed of light. They say the trains in Nowhere are so fast that each time one goes by, lightning flashes through the sky. It's an interesting rumor, I'll have to admit that, but the existence of a place called Nowhere...it's rather silly, kid. Despite how weird it is, I'll have to give it credit. That rumor has been spreading like wildfire for the past three years, and it gets worse when New Year is just around the corner. From time to time people have claimed to have seen the strange train, but I'm not sure I believe them. The local comedian who lives down the street said that last year he went to the station at midnight with his girlfriend. He's usually telling tall tales to get attention, but when he told us his story he actually looked afraid and a part of me just wanted to believe him. The logical side told me it was just some sort of hoax though and well, you know what they say, right? To see is to believe. He told us that the train had arrived at exactly midnight and that it was different from all the other trains. He said he saw a rabbit inside, and that it was using a laptop of sorts, in fact he said he caught a glimpse of the passengers and that none of them were normal. We asked him for proof, like a photo or something but he said he was too scared to think straight and that he immediately grabbed his girlfriend by the hand and ran out without so much as looking back. I wonder if such an unbelievable tale can be true. I called him a liar and he got all flustered, in fact he started sputtering challenges and I couldn't stop myself from smirking. The idiot turned an even darker shade of red and I forgot what happened next but he dared me to see it for myself, on New Year's eve. I don't have time for silly shenanigans, I've got a job after all and a family to look after. What's that kid? You're gonna check it out for me and take a picture? Eh, don't get your hopes too high, I doubt you'll see anything special. Fine, fine, if you insist. Just take care of yourself, okay? It can be dangerous out at night so bring a friend or two. Oh yeah, don't forget, send my regards to the midnight train that leads to Nowhere. --- I will be picking 1-2 people. This will not be first come first serve, and people will be judged by their character sheets. The more unique your character, the higher the chance of you being accepted :) though by unique I mean different from the main cast. I do not want Mary Sues or Gary Sues. Just give me something different :D! If you have any questions or concerns, toss them at me and I'll be happy to help (^w^)/
