This will be a mystery horror type thread. If you are interested in giving this a try, here are few things to keep in mind; I realize some of this is common sense but I want you to understand what I’m thinking about and what I’m working towards:


1. How often you post will determine what kind of character you can take. If you post frequently you can take on detective or sidekick type character. If you don’t post very often but still want to get involved, you can take on an informant type character. As an informant you PM me with questions about the case and I will give you answers, which you can use to progress the story. Examples of informant type characters would be witnesses to the crime and your average bottom of the barrel character that gives information for the right price. Creativity is a good thing and these are just ideas for characters, feel free to create your own.

2. Please keep your posts to a minimum of 30 words if possible; it keeps things entertaining and makes it easier to post with you. If you are in a conversation with another person, I realize that sometimes it is unrealistic to write more than a few words but for the majority of your posts keep it around a minimum of 30 words.

3. I will be trying to run this in an episodic style. I don’t want a never-ending thread. So like tv. there will be season villains and episodic villains. The episodic villains don’t have to be connected to the season villain and they don’t always have to die by the end of the episode. I don’t want the “episode” to run for more than about a month but that will depend on how fast the story is progressing. When the episode is finished another thread will be started. I will be running the villain in the first thread but in the next thread, if you want to, feel free to PM me with your villain to work out details.

4. If you have a character that is expendable please PM me and don’t tell anyone else of your expendability. If your character does die feel free to bring in a new one if possible or wait until the next thread starts.

5. When I say that this is a mystery horror type thread what I mean is that the mysteries will be centered on demons and all that kind of stuff that you will find in the horror genre.


I will be starting this thread after I find out what type of characters are going to be involved. This is the ooc thread so please post your character here and give name, age, description, history, and anything else you can think of for you character.

Name: Lilly Stoica
Age: 24
Description: 5’8”, black hair and brown eyes.
History:

Lilly’s parents died when she was young and she went to live with her grandparents. Her grandparents ran an antique bookstore and she helped out. In the back of the store is her grandparent’s collection of rare books and this is where she learned everything that they could teach her about demonology and magic. Her grandfather used to be a part of a group that would hunt demons and protect the city's human inhabitants but he left the group when Lilly came to live with him. Lilly's grandparents have retired and she now looks after the books.
 
Ok, interested, but not much time to type

Name: Jack Hauptmann
Age: 32
Description: tall, well built, cropped black hair, brown eyes
Occupation: Boarder patrol deputy
 
Thank you very much Screech. I'm very happy you are interested. I thought that you might be interested in this; you posted in the first thread I was involved with and this will be somewhere along those lines.
 
Hey, no problem! I like a good story, be it horror, fantasy, or otherwise. Plus, it helpes that I played a Horror B-Movie style RP game several years ago. That turned out to be a real laugh! But, I'll have to think a bit on the background. Should have something up by tomorrow
 
I've never done a horror/mystery. Sounds a bit like X-files, is that correct?

Let me think on it a bit. Might be something for me to jump into, after all this time.

BTW, Ithica...from what I've read, I like your style... ;)
 
you know of course dear that i could not turn down a thread that you started

name: Daniel O'Dougherty
age:29
description: 6' 250 pounds, muscular but not mr. universe. black hair, green eyes, hevaily tattoed, with a chest piece and an upper back piece and sleeves on his arms. Usually wears a large black leather trench coat with strange designs and symbols on it.
History- from an old irish family that never gave up their druidic pagan roots, Daniel has learned much about the occult and such things. Most of his many tattoos are suppose to increase his strength and spiritual/magical potency. He ran with several occult groups and with some gangs but was never pinned with any crimes. some attribute it to luck or perhaps something more.

occupation: detective

My story will be influenced by several things including X-files but also Buffy, Angel, CSI (and other detective stories), Dean Koontz and Mary Higgins Clark stories, psychology and sociology, and I have been enjoying Heroes and Full Metal Alchemist very much so eventually somethings will come from that.

If you are worried about how much time you can commit to this, you could take on an informant character to start out and then move to another character later.

Thank you, sweetie. Flattery will get you everything. :kiss:

Yea! I was getting worried that no one would be interested or the fact that I haven't been doing much lately but being bitchy to noobies would come back to bite me. I wasn't going to panic until monday.

Your bio looks good, thank you and welcome aboard.

Hello Again........
I would like to give this a try. Start out slow in a smaller part untill I pick up on the Horror part!

Robert Andrews, 61, 6', 260 lbs. (overweight & out of shape). Gray hair with cold gray eyes. Large hands with very crooked fingrs from having broken them many times.

Police Detective taken off the street to a desk job,to be back up to teams out on the street. His tough guy attitude on the street has earned him his posting to a desk. The real reason might be the fact that he belives that there are other forces at work on the wrong side of the law. His out spoken comments has also not been widely accepted and most times considered out of place.
 
Note to all posters, flattering me will now be required when you post. :D
 
Hello macmillian, good to see you. Nice and interesting choice for a character and it looks good. I have been enjoying your posts in Frosthold so I look forward to writing with you here.

LOL--couldn't have said it better myself.

Alright, how's about this:

Judy Raines--a tall, thin red-head who's been tending bar in this Cheers-like establishment for what seems like forever. She's heard it all, seen it all, and just about done it all--and she makes the best bloody marys in town. She won't hesitate to kick your ass out of the place if you're getting too loud or too vulgar. She's a Louisiana girl--which means she's been raised on Catholicism and voodoo--and she's rarely scared. But when she is, she sings--for some reason, it seems to keep the creepy-crawlies away, almost like magic.

(Actually, based on someone I used to work with, many moons ago, but I was the one with the mean bloody marys...)

ranajja that looks perfect. I love that you have included voodoo. If you want to go in this direction, tending a bar sets you up nicely to be in contact with an informant from the demon side or to be an informant yourself. A lot of flexibility with that character. Nicely done.


Irish, I like the idea of the tattoos.
 
i thought they were a nice touch myself, he's kind of a non traditional detective. i wanted to leave it open so if magic comes into play, he might have something for it.

Thank you ........ I hope I can live up to the your expectations. This is a little different then I usually do, so I may be a little slow to start.

Thanks again
