Despite that, she's fairly personable, and maintains a decent social life. Her greatest sacrifice is sleep, which she doesn't get quite enough of, and mitigates the lack of through unreasonable amounts of tea.

C H A R A C T E R B I O G R A P H Y C H A R A C T E R B I O G R A P H Y ________________________________________________________________________________________ There are stories passed down in the Santorini family about their ancestor Gran-Lupe, and the magical prowess that he apparently had. Enough to grow crops in a day and a tree in a week; to divert streams, create ponds, and pile up hills. And, they say, that's how the Santorini family home came to be. Smallish, humble, made of dark gray stone, it sits atop a lakeside hill just outside of town, where Miriam lives along with her grandmother, parents, and two siblings. Miriam doesn't quite believe in the stories of Gran-Lupe Santorini. Not really. But she still thinks that there's something like magic here. So though the Santorini family has clearly seen better days, despite their money drying up and what prestige they had falling largely by the wayside, Miriam quite likes it here. She was always a quiet sort growing up; and even now, though she's perfectly happy socializing, she's still rather introverted, and the thought of moving to the big city that excites others her age makes her break out in hives. She's more than happy to stay here with her books and papers, devouring whole libraries and using the money that she makes by selling stories to ship yet more out to Starlight Cove. When not otherwise occupied with her books, peers, or household, she's often out in nature, rambling across the island and enjoying the island's 'magic.' As long as she doesn't break her glasses. She's helpless without them.

Starlight Cove: Oceanside Memories

Roleplay Synopsis

---

The island village of Starlight Cove is in a rough place.

Established many, many moons ago, the rural community has begun to show signs of age as it struggles to adapt to the modern world. The elder populace despair, watching their homeland dry up as the new generations are drawn away by the fancy, alluring lights of the mainland. What were once happy meadows, taverns and other locales are now desolate, left empty and abandoned to nature. For the passerby, Starlight Cove is quite the depressing place, but to those stubborn enough to remain, it's home—a home worth saving.

Roleplay Overview

---

Starlight Cove is a roleplay inspired by the likes of Animal Crossing, Harvest Moon, and Stardew Valley. It is a small scale, rural slice-of-life roleplay with minor fantasy elements (such as monsters lurking in caves and ancient forest spirits).

Similar to its inspiration, the goal of the roleplay, as well as the player characters, is to ensure the town doesn't disappear and remains a place worth living. How this is accomplished is up to the cast, as there is no path or plot route aside from the predetermined background. Consider the roleplay a blank slate, or otherwise a free roam-esque sandbox to do as you wish and/or explore potential character ideas or plots you've been wanting to write but never had a chance to.

After all, the world's your oyster now; you just gotta save it first.

Ashes Unto Stardust is a collaborative writing exercise in a fantasy-scifi fusion blend of my own making. This is a world where noble houses and knightly orders exist alongside steam trains and mechanical weaponry for as long as one could possibly remember.

You are a noble youth studying at the Clarissant chapel grounds, a chivalric institute managed by the Order of the Ardent Rose.

Any post I write depends on my motivation to write. Sometimes I hyper-fixate and bang it out in mere minutes, but then I have moments where I keep distracting myself (*cough* video games and youtube *cough*) and it takes me hours if not days to post any material. Typically, though, it takes me an hour on average/most to write a post for the roleplays I participate in.

Lengthy posts can be established by being descriptive with your writing. It can be information in regards to the scenery, or perhaps even your character's thoughts about the current scene. If you do this, you in turn pad out your writing without the need to step on someone else's toes. It causes your post to appear as if you're doing more when you're not doing much at all.

Just be careful not to delve into purple prose territory, however.

As for your other question, I fully expect everyone to read each other's posts regardless if certain parts of it are applicable or not. Your character doesn't have to react to everything, but you still have to pay attention to everything. Roleplay is a collaborative exercise, you're not here to jerk yourself off because you want to solo-write a novel instead like some people I know on this site. The point of roleplay is to build off each other to make something interesting; not become the new GRRM.

I'm still deciding if I should hold off until the time skip to post the next Suzy post.
