Feel free to read the posts from the [url=http://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/83149-ink-on-your-soul/ic]old thread[/url] if you want some existing character background story, but no worries, it is not necessary by any means!

As far as the rest goes: credit for original post goes to [@Morte Angelis],

Some people (whether they have pointed ears, wings, odd reactions to the moon, crave blood, etc.) are born with a name and a date on their wrist. That name might be in a different language; but regardless of what language it's in, the name inked on your wrist is the name of your soulmate. What's the date there for you ask? It's the day you'll meet said soul mate. It's unavoidable because, even if you lock yourself in your apartment or house, they might be your mailman, crash land on your roof, need to borrow some sugar, or even just be a new neighbor stopping by to say hi. 

The age that one meets their soulmate varies greatly, because you could meet them when you're in college, or it might not be until you're in your 30's ( or 300's, depending on your species ). When your soulmate is close by their name will glow and cause your wrist to burn a little bit, so if you are in a crowd of people, you might not realize who it is. They might notice though if you keep glaring at your wrist as if it's wronged you in some way. So have faith that you'll meet that special someone on the date inked on your wrist. 

With the happy bits behind us, let's get on with the depressing bits. All marks start out Blue, but those marks will change color depending on certain events. If you see someone with a black mark or blue mark that looks like [s]this[/s], it means that person's soul mate died. If it's blue, it means that they died before they met, and if it's black, it means it happened after they met. In either case, if they die, that name will fade and a new one will appear, but only to someone whose soul mate has also died. There will never be a person with two names on their wrist.

Since this is casual, I expect at least 1-2 (preferably 2) 5-6 sentence paragraph's. One-liners will not be accepted at all, so keep this in mind before you express interest. 

Your character can be any species you want; with a few exceptions. They cannot be a furry, anthro, or anything else that stands on two legs but doesn't quite resemble a human. In short, only characters that look (or are) human will be accepted. If you have any questions once I get the thread started (or before, if you have any concerns before joining) PM me and I'd be happy to answer. 

There will be romance in this roleplay (obviously), but since it'll be in a thread, please keep it PG-13.
