It is not only one of the most expensive communities to live in, but also one of the most difficult to get into. With extensive background checks that include the requirement of disclosing previous living arrangements, financial records, and proof of employment among other requirements, to live in Crown Heights is to have made it in Palm Beach's top 1% of the top 1%. Here, you are treated like royalty. This goes from the parents, to the children, and to accepted third parties. In Crown Heights, there is a beautiful park with elaborate gardens and a large pond in the center, privately-owned stores where the inhabitants of this exclusive community can shop in the safety of their own, a private school co-financed by the city and third-party organizations that hosts grades from pre-school to the senior class. It has top of the line educational benefits with the best resources and the best teachers the south has to offer. Extracurriculars are available to any and all. Athletic events are highly praised and often are the center of most school functions. In this community of wealthy individuals, there are bound to be secrets behind the visage of paradise. Anyone from the parents to their kids all has secrets. Either secret they are keeping to protect others or secrets from their past. Whatever it is and whatever the severity, no secret will lay buried forever. These are the lives of King’s Academy’s Palm Beach Royals. Let the games of thrones begin.[/indent] [center][img]https://i.imgur.com/xfNiRDc.png[/img][/center] [indent]Hi there, welcome to Palm Beach Royals: Senior Year, and thank you so much for the interest! In this roleplay, you will play a senior that belongs to the exclusive Crown Heights gated community of Palm Beach, Florida. You are in your final year of the most prestigious private school in the whole state: Crown Heights’ own King's Academy. There - and throughout Palm Beach and Crown Heights - this roleplay will follow the story of our darling characters as they go through the typical trials and tribulations of a young adult trying to balance their career aspirations, parental expectations, and the various bonds they have formed since entering the gates of teenhood (with some going on since as early as preschool). The GM team will present a series of events to move the story along to our ultimate goal: graduation and prom. PS: this RP might contain mature themes such as drug use, drinking and such. You have been warned.[/indent] [img]https://i.imgur.com/xfNiRDc.png[/img] [center][img]https://fontmeme.com/permalink/200708/f771203fec2aebbb64bd227638bef49a.png[/img][/center] [list][*]The standard being held for this role play will be [i][b][u]High-Casual[/u][/b][/i], which means [i][b][u]at least 2 paragraphs of non-dialogue minimum[/u][/b][/i]. However, quality over quantity shall prevail. Sometimes you just feel like you can get your point across without writing a detailed paragraph over how Mary Sue brushes her teeth, and that’s totally okay. [*]The maximum time between posts will be [i][b][u]10 days[/u][/b][/i], which can be extended by previous communication with the GM's. If you do not post in IC or OOC by this time, I shall shamelessly spam your DM’s in Discord or Guild PM’s to see what’s up. [*]If you are to be absent from the site, unable to post in the period of time mentioned above, or wish to bow out please let us know in whatever via you prefer (OOC or group PM to the GM's). It’s not only polite to do so, but it will be much appreciated. [*]Please check with at least one of the GM's if you plan on making a big event that might change the vibe of the RP or affect the cast in any way. We’ll most likely say yes, but better safe than sorry. [*]This is a character-driven RP. As such, there is not only a need, but a [i][b][u]requirement[/u][/b][/i] of character interactions. So [i]talkkkkkk[/i]. Every player and the characters he or she decide to play will have their moments to shine, but interactions help a lot with this. After all, we wouldn't want somebody to be left out, now would we? [*]Please allow at least 2 people to post before making your next one. This includes different characters. Collabs are encouraged, but please don't go overboard. We want to have some machine-gun posting too. [*]Drop your favorite song of the month on the Misc. section of the Character Sheet to make sure you’ve read through the rules! <3 [*]Romance is allowed and very much encouraged by the GM [sub][s]plz give me those shipssss hehehehe >:)[/s][/sub], and Guild Rules will apply to the steamier scenes. [*]If you encounter any situations with a particular user, either take it to PMs, DMs or let us GM's know to see if the situation can be resolved amicably.[/list] [img]https://i.imgur.com/xfNiRDc.png[/img] [center][img]https://fontmeme.com/permalink/200708/a987f64e2832f398c16e4cfa972e6b91.png[/img][/center] [list][*]No Mary-Sue or Gary-Stu characters will be allowed. Who wants a perfect character anyway? They all need to be as perfectly imperfect as every regular teenager. [*]There will be a limit of [i][b][u]three characters per person[/u][/b][/i]. However, we strongly encourage you to play only the amount you can handle. We want everyone to focus all of their energies onto the characters chosen. NPC's are perfectly fine. [*]Feel free to customize your sheet however you wish as long as no sections are removed from it. [*][i][b][u]Real-life face claims only[/u][/b][/i], and ones that [i][b][u]look the part of a high school senior[/u][/b][/i]. [*]Only a maximum of five characters will be allowed to be scholarship students. [*]Finished character sheets shall be posted in the OOC for GM review, who reserves the right to accept, deny or make suggestions about your sheet.[/list][/color]
