@Egads

I’m so sorry to hear that! Good luck and go get ‘em! Real life always comes first and relationship are most important.

[DruSM157]

Hey guys. IRL duty calls & I have to go try and save my relationship. I don't think I 'll be online or able to be very creative this weekend.

@DruSM157 Go ahead and bench G Mann for now. I'll try to work on an improved version when I get some time.

@Egads

I'm so sorry to hear that. Best wishes for you, and I hope things turn out okay.

How are we doing? Any fancy sheet revisions?

Hello there, is this still open for admitting a CS for review? ^^ Love the premise of the RP and would like to toss my interest in, if possible. I could have a character up by the end the night. :)

The deadline is 10th, according to @DruSM157. So yes, there is still time.

@Moro

Yup! Still welcoming characters!

[Akayaofthemoon]

It’s cool that we are seeing more people interested before the deadline but also sucks that there are so many good ones and only 7 slots. I’m really interested to see who gets picked!

@Akayaofthemoon

Yup! It's what makes me agonize and regret not making someone else GM this RP for me while I just run the story and everything except character sheets hahaha

@Inkarnate

Nothing fancy for me but did a small update to give some diversity.

And now I sit here feeling/telling myself like...

@DruSM157



Jokes aside, I don’t blame you for wanting to it to be that way XD it seems like a really tough choice but I know you will be alright. It seems like you have a solid process and are thinking things over carefully. It won’t make it any easier but it still helps.

[mickilennial]

As the guy who he usually makes do the bulk of the work for him in that way, I'm glad to not be in that position for once.

[Akayaofthemoon]

@Inkarnate

Well, aren’t you the lucky one this time XD

Honestly, do not envy the position he is in right now. Such is the life of a GM though.

[mickilennial]

Can't wait to claim that first slot.

[DruSM157]

Can't wait to claim that first slot.

@Inkarnate

Yeeerrr out!

[mickilennial]

Yeeerrr out!

@DruSM157

Time to make my own rip-off roleplay then, I guess.

REAL EMILY BRANDT HOURS

[Akayaofthemoon]

And now I’m just thinking of spin off shows XD

[Akayaofthemoon]

I am at your mercy.

Name

Bronwyn Rae Knowles

Nickname

Brynn.

Age

17-years-young

Place of Residence

313 Turner Street

Personality Traits

Selfless ♛ Competitive ♛ Observant/Conscientious ♛ Sarcastic ♛ Loyal ♛ Unyielding ♛ Compassionate ♛ Jealous

Brynn, to most has this "I'm better than you" vibe about her, which those who think that tend to believe it's because she comes from a wealthy family, much like many of the snot-nosed brats raised up on old money who thinks everyone is beneath them. Quite the opposite in Brynn's case, except she does have a serious case of RBF. Brynn is very much about helping others way before she even thinks of herself, she just tends to be super competitive when it comes to sports and physical training. She tries not to gloat, but sometimes she can't help it. She knows she's good at what she does, but she does like to help others out on the team. She's all about proper sportsmanship. Winning is nice, but its all about having fun. As her father likes to say, "Victory is in the quality of the competition and not the final score." She may only be 17, but she kind of acts like the Mother Hen among her friends. She loves working with others but doesn't mind being a lone wolf , either. If you really get to know Brynn, she tends to be quite sarcastic. You'll know she's comfortable with you when she starts insulting you. It's all love, so don't take it personal. She's loyal to a fault and will do anything and everything in her power to protect her friends and loved ones.

Family

Jackson D. Knowles || Father || FC: Jason Mamoa
Melissa M. Knowles || Mother (Deceased) || FC: Marisa Tomei
Daniel A. Knowles || Brother || FC: Ansel Elgort

Backstory

The Knowles story began living in a dry desert city in the Coachella Valley called Indio, CA. Summer temperatures ran up to 120 degrees and the people living in it were about as bland as the desert scenery. Jackson Knowles was a sergeant for the Marine Corps, while Melissa was a bartender at the bar where they ended up meeting. A one-night stand led to the conception of their first born, Daniel. Soon after Melissa found out she was pregnant, she got in touch with Jack whom wasn't especially eager to hear what had happened, he wasn't going to back out of something he was to be held responsible for. They made it work, and eventually got married and decided to expand the family one more time.

Brynn was brought into the world to a brother 2 1/2 years her senior, and two parents who were together and happily married. The first 10 years of Brynn's life went by like nothing, things seemed to be going just great. Even with her asshole brother constantly bullying her, it wasn't enough to dampen her spirits. Sometime shortly after her 11th birthday, Brynn found out that her mother was deathly ill. She never made it to see her 12th birthday. Her father says she had been sick for some time before Brynn and Daniel actually found out, but she didn't tell them sooner in hopes that she was going to get better.

Brynn didn't take her death very well, and neither did Daniel, although both acted out their grief in different ways. Daniel became very reclusive and hardly spoke unless directly spoken to, and Brynn turned to causing trouble both in school and at home, often times getting into screaming matches with her brother and growing bold enough to yell at her father once. Yes, once. Cause after that one time, she didn't dare do it again. So instead, she decided to thumb her nose at her father another way and.. well, at least once she hit High School, started sleeping around with boys. Which eventually got her into the trouble that forced the family of three to uproot and move up to Everbrook, where Brynn's dad was lucky enough to land a job working at a warehouse overnight in Portland.

With the promise of a new life and the chance to create a new name for herself, Brynn has decided to make a change to herself and focus solely on school. Since the Knowles moved to the area, Brynn only met a couple of kids her own age to talk to before the quarantine hit, Strict orders kept both the Knowles kids inside the house, even while Jackson was away at work. No visitors. With quarantine being lifted, Brynn is excited to get out and explore the new area, maybe make a few new friends and go on an adventure.. or a few. Nothing is off-limits to Brynn, this summer.
