You are standing in front of the mirror, preparing for the upcoming show like you always do.

When suddenly a voice is echoing inside of your head, the voice of a girl from your age.

At first you find it a little weird, but you try to ignore it.
When the voice repeats itself, a fear starts to rise.
After a third time, you decide to go take a look.

Where is the voice coming from? It can't be your imagination, can it?

You are walking in the hallway with the bedrooms of the other performers and notice that others are coming out of their rooms too.
Is everyone hearing it?
Not just you?

You end up before a locked cage.
Inside of it is not a wild animal that is supposed to be used for the circus.

But there is a girl...
Maybe the girl you heard?

Who is she?

Is the girl good or bad?
Does she have to do anything with the attacks on you and your friends and with all the other things that are happening?

Are you going to save her and flee with her from the circus?
Or don't you trust her at all and have faith in your home?

It is all up to you...

What choice do you make?


~~~


This story is about "Merry Circus".

It is the place you work at as performer, but it is also your home and the home of many others.

All of you have a story, a sad and maybe dark one.

Because you are not a normal human, you can do something or have an appearance that is not like the others, and you don't have any family or friend anymore other then the other performers and your boss.

Your personalities are totally different: some enjoy the attention of the public, others are more nervous and full of stress. Some are happy about where they are right now, others prefer to have a family and a normal home. Some like being different, others want to be a normal human.

In this roleplay, the choices are totally up to you!
You can decide yourself what you do in the story and you don't have to follow the other players either, even if you find yourself at different places, you all get to have your own story.

As this is a casual roleplay, I would like you to be able to write AT LEAST several lines for every post.
Something that other people can react to.

For the kind of power/creature you are, keep it a bit realistic.
For example: your height can be out of the normal - if you want to be a giant - but you can't be bigger then the building or the circus itself.

For roles: the girl that the performers find, is played by myself.
All of you will be a performer - as the public will be normal humans - but if you really want to be someone from the public and a normal human, we can fit you in the story if you can give me a reason why you would be allowed backstage. Maybe if you have a family member there? A friend from the past that you want to appologize to for freaking out when he showed you his power?

Let me know if you are interested!

I admit you have caught my interest but I have to ask could there be a character that is an orc or of Orcish appearance that is also a clown?

Ok...the idea I have will fit modern day, as long as you don't mind retaining the poor treatment of some of the circus animals, which unfortunately I still remember seeing.

The concept I had was my character is a female werecat who is the circus' "big cat tamer," since she can speak to/command cats (among other things). She tries to take care of the circus cats who are otherwise trapped in cages all day, but she can't let them escape because they will be shot by the police as a threat to the public. She is just as trapped as they are, and she copes by going out and partying all night and basically being self-destructive.

So, the whole thing is a tragedy in more ways than one.

Does this fit?
