Jig

The Bureau of Unconventional Crime

I've been working on a vamp RP you may have seen in the advanced section, recovering, looking after my family, trying to learn the cello (I won't have the strength to play the bass for quite some time, I don't think, so I need to take up something similar but new), trying to sort out insurance because the insurance told me that "every broken bone has a value" and frankly if they're going to give me moniez, I'm not rich enough to refuse, sorting out stuff for uni next year, AND finding time to frantically boxset Veep, Orphan Black, Utopia, Black Mirror and Being Human.

Busy Jig is busy.

Also, I love the secret ??? room.

Wait your turn. xD

Let's B!tch. I feel it's a healthy release for our roleplay annoyances 2.0

DrawnIn said Anyway, something that sometimes slightly bothers me is people hellbent on matching characters up.

Not just an RP thing, unfortunately. Basically every TV show and film that isn't specifically a relationship drama normally has the hero/ine acquiring a love interest that is in some way integral to the plot or character arcs.

It gets dull.

True that, Jig. The driver...err. Ahem. *clears throat* >> I thought similarly, but he's...um. Any...err. Way.

Join the queue.

Eep. I thought the driver was a stuffy old guy. :3

Has the map been loaded? I can't view it.
Also, are the NPC's exclusively GM agents within the RP or can we control them as well? What about staff? I'm guessing people who own manors don't do their own cooking, cleaning and laundry.

So many questions, and nobody's even died yet.

Nice ideas. However you want to work it, that's fine. :)

Cheers.

Okay, so, I'm trying to work out how all the characters know one another and I'd like to encourage everybody else to do the same. Since I have little influence over the human side of things with my vampire characters, you guys might need to put in a little bit more work to get yourselves involved, but I'm sure you won't struggle. This is how I see it, but don't take it as gospel. If you have different ideas, let them be known! :)

Albert is the sire of Jennifer, Felix (sheet yet to be submitted) and Alexander. Felix was probably a contemporary of Jennifer and is a contemporary of Alexander, though Jennifer and Alexander have met only very briefly.

Albert, Anthony, Jennifer and Lacey are all vampire business-owners (of sorts) in Amsterdam. Albert (and possibly Jennifer) may well be a client of both the bank and the law firm, while certainly expecting to have some influence in their runnings based on his status alone. He'll basically be expecting to be able to swallow the art museum into his empire, too.

Yannick is an artist, and Jennifer is heavily involved in an art gallery and museum. You guys should consider talking. :P

Alexander, Felix, Natalia and Lailaa all work in vamp-friendly bars. Felix and Alexander definitely work for Albert's places, but I'm gonna guess that they all do, to make life easier. Alexander works in The Burlesque, while Natalia and Lailaa probably work in the sleazier Downstairs in Red. Haven't heard from Felix yet. Albert is probably only very vaguely aware of employees of Downstairs in Red, while more closely tied to those that work in The Burlesque.

Not sure what ties Skylar or Christina have yet.

Would like a single post removed... :)

Hello, could somebody remove this post please. It looks harmless, but I want the first three posts to myself to store OoC information. There's too much information to fit in the two I had at the start, so I need that third one too. It's messy to have that little post in the way, so if a mod could magically solve the problem, that'd be great.

Fanx :3

Thicker Than Water

Erm, so we now have a problem... the character sheet post won't accept enough characters, either in terms of playable characters or letters. Grr.

I'll sort something out.

Edit: Love Dove, I'm going to ask the mods to remove your first post in the OoC, so I have three consecutive posts at the start of the thread so all the most important OoC is held together. I hope that's okay.
