Heres the basis of the story:

This story is set in the Victorian Era in a rather small city. The city had two main "powerhouse" families and the rest of the families were peasants. The daughter of the Raglan family, which was the oldest and richest family in the town, was ready to be courted and find a husband. Alana Raglan was already in love though, you see. She had fallen in love many years before with a boy she had known since she was a little girl. This boy's family was once rich and a very powerful influence over the town but the tragedy struck the family when the boy turned about 10, it was unclear when exactly the family went under. The boys family hid the financial troubles very well, taking loans from banks and such. The boy and the girl had grown incredibly close together, if the girl was somewhere, the boy was sure to be there as well. They were stuck at the hip but when the boys family lost everything, the boy lost her. Her parents saw it a disgrace to keep letting their daughter visit the peasant boy so they shut off all contact with the two. But the bond between them was too strong. They wrote letters back and forth by means of hiding the letters throughout the city. They even had quite a few secret meetings. Her mother and father had caught them together one night, the girl was about to loose her virginity to the boy. She had disgraced her family and tried to explain to her family that they loved each other. Her family wanted none of it. They locked her away in the home and had a private teacher come to the home to educate the girl. Alana still loved the boy very much and did not want to marry some stranger, she wanted the boy. Her family would stop at nothing to keep them apart...........

This thread is quite obviously a historical romance thread but of course, its a SRP thread, so yes there will be sex but a little bit later on in the thread.

I will need members for the girls family. A mother, father, younger sister and perhaps an overprotective older brother. Also the boy will be needed of course. The boys family, some peasants, and even members from the other "powerhouse" family trying to catch the girl and boy together to bring the Raglans down.

I will go more into detail with the families and the boy's families past once I get enough people jumped onto the bandwagon.

PM me with your character selection pwease!!!!

Well since I'm bored and no one had bitten on this thread, I'll just make the bios and such. Ahhh boredom........I love it lol.

The Raglans:

The Raglans came to be very powerful through the use of the Stock Market. Alana's father, Alexander Raglan, was a stock market mogel. He knew the ins and outs of the market and had made his family very rich in the process. Alana had been born into the wealth but amazingly enough, she was not tainted by this. She was a sweet girl with the face of an angel. Most men in the town had their sights set on her but they all knew she was to be courted by Ian Thornton. Her mother had never even broken a nail since she married Alexander. She didn't have too. They had plenty of servants to things for them. Mary Raglan and Alexander Raglan were not very pleased with their daughters distaste in their choice for a courter but this was not a choice for Alana to make. Her parents were not about to let Alana marry a peasant, given he had been wealthy once but they did not care. He was still a peasant. Her parents were cold and kept Alana under lock and key.

The Thorntons:

This was the second richest and most powerful family in the town. Their son Ian had also been choosen by the Raglans to court their daughter. They were estatic. The union between the two families would secure their future and they would not end up like the Capians. Grant Thornton was a brillant man and would ,by no means, ever let his family run out of money but Cynthia Thornton ,his wife, did worry. Grant was an inventor and had made his millions in the Industrial business. Her father had created the lock stitch sewing machine which simplified both home and boutique dressmaking, and enabled a fashion for lavish application of trim that would have been prohibitively time-consuming if done by hand. His creation was quickly scooped up by large factories in record numbers. Now with his family set financially, he travels rather often and help improve on older machines.

The Capians:

The Capians had a very comfortable life until the father had died. The father was the main money source in the family due to his partnership with Grant Thornton. Once Jonathan Capian died, his wife shopped and spent the money until it was completely gone, leaving them with nothing to live off of. Due to this Jonathan Jr. had grown to resent his now prosititute mother. His mother did what she had to for ends to met and to keep a roof over their head. Sure the roof over their heads leaked but it was a roof. She prayed to God everyday hoping that Alana and Jonathan Jr. would marry and she would live in riches, once again. Of course, Elizabeth Capian knew that was not going to happen but it was better than giving up. Jonathan Jr. was the most handsome man in the town by far, with a strong jawline and the most piercing blue eyes, but that did not mean anything now. Every peasant girl had their eye on Jonathan Jr. but he had eyes for only one girl and that girl was no where near in reach.



((Come on people, jump on board. It shall be fun. I promise?))
