If things get real bad and you have to resort to cannibalism remember: Vegans first, they are the closest thing to grass fed.

⚘ A Brief History
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
I've been at this a long time and when I say a long time I mean a long long damn time. I started out with table top, ADnD, back in the 80's, then dived into others: Nightlife, Mage the Ascension, Shadow Run, HoL, etc. Moved onto Online in the 90's. I've been running various incarnations of a single RP group for twenty years now. Worked helping setting up, building, and/or admining/modding various RP forums over the years: Adventure Quest, Priston Tales, War Gods, etc. It's been a long road filled with ups and downs. I'm an evil GM, you've been warned.

Outside of RP, I am a mom. Yup, I've reproduced and there are little Lady A's running around plotting their own take over of the world. I am a published author and once upon a time an award winning poet. I've done a lot in my life. I haven't done as much as I would like. I've grown a lot. I have a lot more growing to do. I love to cook, baker by trade currently. I went to university and majored in Mathematics. I've programmed websites, worked as a model, worked as a 3d modeler. Shit, I even used to dance. And have been known to sing a bit. Jack of all trades. Master of like 3, lol.


⚘ Looking Inside
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
This is where I go into my personality. In the past I would normally make some self deprecating remark about how I am a bitch of a GM, pushing my rpers as hard as I push myself and so forth. Not anymore. People change, or perhaps they just come into their own. This can happen at any age. More than that it can happen several times over the course of your life as you discover and rediscover yourself. Everything happens for a reason, usually that reason is ones owns actions. Or inaction's. Right now, I am in a better place than I can remember being in the longest time. I am happy and at peace. I have no regrets. Maybe I should but I don't. I plan on keeping this peace I have found, I went far too long without it.

Currently I am enjoying several things. Some are things I have enjoyed most of my life: Coffee, chocolate, bacon, M*A*S*H. One isn't something I have enjoyed since I was seventeen: being clean and free of poisons in my system. It is beyond description and I love it: One-hundred and twenty days and counting. Music taste is shifting to more mood oriented than anything, strange I am finding a lot of newer Country I am enjoying and I have NEVER liked country. Watching things like Lark Rise to Candleford and being hooked to the point of reading the trilogy. Recently added yoga to my workouts and all I can say is, "Fuckmaste: the fucked up in me accepts the fucked up in you."

OOC For RP Is Live



Premise

That is it! You are freaking tired of your mother trying to hook you up with her podiatrist; your best friend saying that the guy at the coffee shop is perfect for you and everyone asking at the family reunions when you are going to find a nice guy or girl to settle down with. It is never ending and you've tried the online thing only to be hooked up with a number of losers who look nothing like their uploaded image. It is time to get away from it all and just see if you can do something about this, if even for the week.

After some talk with your travel agent you found the spot. Pezula Castle in South Africa. It has sun, sand, mountains, romance and is for singles only. Okay you can do this. A Passport check and a flight later and you have landed in one of the most beautiful places you have ever imagined. If you find romance, great. If not least it should be a lot of fun just looking at all the yumminess running around the beach.

You begin on Day 1 of 5. You are settled into your room and are headed to the Speed Dating Event to kick off the weekend. You will be paired up, get 90 seconds to talk and then move on to the next. It's like an all you can eat buffet of hotties. At the end of the exchanges you will contact your trip coordinator (the GM Via PM) - and let them know your top five choices. After which you will be paired up for longer more intimate dates as the week progresses. Everything goes well you might actually find the love of your life. If it doesn't, you're at least going to have a good time right?

Wait, what happens if you really fall for someone that isn't interested in you? Well, try to crash their dates if you want! Show them where they messed up. Have fun with it! That is what this whole week is about! So, pack your bags! You're off to Africa and this isn't any Blending moment, this is pure unadulterated last chance option before you become the crazy cat lady or man. Let's see what you can dish up! Heck, are you seeing someone on the side when the dates aren't planned? Oh, this could get juicy.



Overview

Setting: Pezula Castle in Noetzie Beach, South Africa
Time Frame: Modern Day - Starting June 1st, 2016
Rp Tags: Modern, Slice-Of-Life, High Casual, Romance
Type Of RP: Character driven more realistic Rp
What's Up: You will play two characters in this RP; 1 Male and 1 Female - that way we are assured of an even number of both genders. (You can still be any sexuality you wish though.) - We will start at the opening of the Speed Dating Scene and take things from there. This RP will go through the 5 days at the resort. The Beginning Speed Date will consist of a kick off where you will be randomly assigned your starting pair. Each pair will get 1 colab (or one post each) to go through your 90 second date. Then you will be repaired with another until each female has had 90 seconds with each male. After that is done, you will PM me, the GM, with your "likes" - I will tally them up and the ones who liked each other then most, top 5, will begin a series of planned dates that will happen over the week. At the end, votes will come back into me once again and we will see if anyone found the real thing. ^_~

Character Sheet


*Fill out one of these for each of your characters. Once both are completed post them in the OOC for review! Do NOT post them in the CS Tab until I have approved them. To cut down on Face Claim (FC) Confusion - when you start filling out your CS, please tag me in the OOC and post your FC's so I can go ahead and put a "claim" on them for you so others we don't have two people looking exactly alike running around the hotel, lmao.

@DMZ k sounds good, just let me know when you are ready to have your character jump in once you post their cs under the cs tab.
Sad to say but Deyedreamer is going on hiatus from the site, so won't be joining us on this rp. So don't worry about the relation for Frenchie and remove her from the relation sheet.
Relations are going great, soon as they are done we will begin!
@DMZ Okay, I remember now. Yup, everything looks fine. Move to Cs tab and join the fray. If you would like to join during this fight, wait to post until I post the start of the fight and the OOC jabber that goes along with it. Then you can jump in. Or you can wait until after the fight is over.
@DMZ Can you link me to the CS once again? It's a been a while.
Okay, just need a post from @rivaan and we can start this fight.
Okay, Marc's Cs is now up under the CS tab
