Current I love those times when you've got a few really good, high-potential stories in the making and all you wanna do is write. It's like all my stars have aligned.

I also feel like the idea that there is now a hypothesised generational divide between people who used to 'RP' on IM and people who write good content on forums is pathetic. Why start this crap?

You could also have long-form stories over text, however complaining about long-form, detailed posts (as this began as), seems both ludicrous and worthy of IM.

Sometime it's less about writing some shitty slice-of-life RP in IM, and more about creating a coherent and valued story among like-minded people. Something you'd need an actual platform for.

I always forget how quiet it is here in the British mornings. Timezones are not our friend.

Great stuff, gonna start on the IC post now! Looking forward to this!
Alright. Here... I tend to not write the biggest bios or personalities, sorry if that disappoints anyone.
Name: Aria Johnson

Age: Barely 15

Appearance:


Year of Education: 12th grade

Favourite Subject: All of the above? XD Probably AP Latin. Or AP Calculus... Maybe Biology. Oh, everything.

Personality (optional): In a short sentence, Aria is intelligent, but extremely socially awkward and rather a recluse. She’s quite the bookworm and would rather spend a day with her nose in a book than to ever consider having a conversation with anyone. Except about literature. If someone mentions any book to her or asks her opinion on any author who has been dead for more than fifteen hundred years, she will gladly talk their ear off.

Background (optional): Just to give a brief highlight of her early life, she skipped 1st and 2nd grade, then skipped 4th grade. In middle school at the age of eight, she quickly realized how nasty her peers were, and decided to devote her life to learning about the “Emperors of Ancient Rome who were idealized and idolized to the point of inhumanity.” Since then she’s branched out a bit, discovering that she loves the sciences and mathematics. Classics are still definitely her passion, though.

Significant Relationships with any other Characters: We’ll see what unfolds.

Other: Her favorite color is ice blue. She’s claustrophobic, a result of being locked in her own locker for an entire weekend in sixth grade. She likes to sing, though she never would where anyone else can hear her.


Accepted! Post it in the Characters tab, and we're good to go now.
Awesome. Quick question though, do we have to use images for our character appearances? I usually prefer descriptions but I can roll with images if that's what you prefer.


If that's how you roll, go for it. I don't mind.

Name: Robyn Capuche

Age: 16

Appearance (real images only):


Year of Education: 11th (Junior Year)

Favourite Subject: Gym

Personality (optional): Robyn, on the outside, seems to be the perfect girl. She is extremely nice, sweet, and caring. She does not seem to hurt a fly and is nice to anyone who talks to her. She is smart and outgoing, an extrovert more than an introvert. She’s not afraid to meet new people or try new things and she always stands up for what she feels is right. She could be classified as more of a nerdy girl, considering the fact that she plays video games and studies a lot more than she should.

Background (optional): Robyn’s childhood was typical. She grew up with upper middle class parents and her childhood was normal. She loved her parents and, being an only child, she had all of their love as well. That all changed when they went camping. There had been reports of someone breaking out of an insane asylum nearby and people were warned to stay in their houses, but her parents didn’t listen. She was out swimming in the lake when she heard screams coming from her campsite. She ran back immediately and saw that her parents had been brutally murdered. The man, the insane one, was nowhere to be found though, and she was left without parents. She was only eight at the time.

She went to live with her grandmother uptown, but she kept having nightmares about that night. Finally, she was walking down the street to her middle school when she saw a combat school. She thought it looked interesting and immediately begged her grandmother to let her enroll for the summer. She did, and Robyn learned more about fighting in one summer than most army soldiers do in a whole year. She only did it for that summer, but she mastered archery and some hand to hand fighting styles. Though she still holds the sweet persona, she is, technically, a badass when it comes to fighting.

Significant Relationships with any other Characters: Doesn’t really have any. She is nice, but she doesn’t hold friends very well.

Other: I dare you to look up what Capuche means in French. xD Also, she loves the color green and though her parents were murdered in the woods, she still loves to go camping.


Accepted! Post it in the Characters tab and we're all good. Loving the French joke by the way.

I can join if you still need a girl, I saw the interest check.


I would like to join as well as whatever you need! I can do a girl or guy. :)


If you could both be girls, that would be great! That means we would have 3 guys and 3 girls. I'd be glad to have both of you if you want to join. Just write up a CS and we'll see how it goes.
We are currently looking for one or two more female characters to balance out the guys to girls ratio and start this story soon! Here's the OOC, so just throw a CS up and we should be good to go.

Hope you can join!
Are we just waiting on a couple more people now?
I'm going to see if an friend of mine would like to join first. I just started to think that playing two girls in a casual roleplay might be a little much to manage with my current schedule. But if they say no I will go ahead and post her CS- my posts just will be around 2-3 decent paragraphs per character if I play them both instead of my normal 3-4 lengthy paragraphs.


Alright, even better. If she cannot however join, then no worries. Thanks for offering anyway.
Okay, I will have to alter CC somewhat to make their histories fit.


No problem, thanks for doing it! You've helped out a lot.
I was going to wait, but I have a female twin I like to play with CC that I could use here. That would put it to 5 players. If you'd prefer me not to play two characters I will just stick with Cordelia then.


No, if you think you can run both sufficiently, lets do it. Should be interesting.
If anyone knows anyone who would be interested in joining, let them know. Especially looking for some females as there are 3 guys to 1 girl. Might start the IC once we hit 6 characters, 5 if we get another girl.
