It starts with us. A group of friends who are like in a play together. We're hangin' out after opening night, LATE, like midnight, at somebody's house, making smores and other nummies around her fire pit. And being exited teens we're like 'GHOST STORIES GHOST STORIES GHOST STORIES!!! '. One of our directors, who's really young, just like, two-three years older than us, starts telling us some ones about our theater and a few other places around town. So then we cut to a few weeks later. The play's over, we're still in bare minimal contact. So the oldest of us gets a driver's license and is like 'Hey guys, let's go see what our director told us about!'. Yknow because we're dumb teens. xD So we go and do things like go to Old Highway, and to the theater, and a few other places, and at the very end we go on the longer journey and go up to Maltby to the 13 Steps to Hell, and together we go down. We come back up like 'Well that was fucking stupid' but things are... different now. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ To start this off, I want to just say the three types of ghosts, just to get this out of the way. - RESONANT - The most common for EVPs and sightings. These are imprints of the past, playing over and over and over again.
- INTELLIGENT - Responding beings, trapped in this world. Demons are these for instance. Will respond to questions and changes in environment, and transfer their energy into these responses.
- POLTERGEIST - Common in high-energy areas, like with children and teens under stress with screwed up hormones. Moves things around, throws things.
- OTHER - Light orbs, spots on cameras, etc.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This RP takes place in Grays Harbor, WA, and then another universe. Felt like explaining that. NAME:AGE:APPEARANCE:FEARS:BIO:[b]NAME:[/b] [b]AGE:[/b] [b]APPEARANCE:[/b] [b]FEARS:[/b] [b]BIO:[/b] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This RP is to be a mix between serious/straight and funny/parody. While a LOT of the funny will come from situational/dramatic irony, there will be a lot of straight-up funny, especially in the beginning. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

NAME: Mikayla "Kay" Jenna Shepherd AGE: 17 APPEARANCE: Playby is Susan Coffey. Picture is big, so. Link: wallpapers99.com/images/wallpaper/1024x768/Susan%20Coffey_33843.jpgFEARS: Losing her voice, making a fool of herself, being alone BIO: Mikayla was always a bit of an odd girl. She's quirky and can be loud & fun, but under pressure she just seems to turn into this emotionless thing. She loves spending time with her friends and is a rather good actress, which may explain how she seems to be very diplomatic and calm when she's stressed out. Even Kay, though, has a snapping point, and it's true that she can slip up and let things get the best of her. She grew up in an extremely loving family, an only child, her father a writer and her mother a freelance artist. While they're not poor or anything, there are definitely lapses of income, so Kay doesn't always get exactly what she wants. She's used to it, though, and it doesn't really bother her. As long as her family is happy - she cares about them deeply.

NAME: Aria "Ari" Sangster AGE: 15 APPEARANCE:FEARS: Mirrors late at night, the dark, poison, not being loved. BIO: Extremely gullible, susceptible, and believing, Aria comes from a big family. The baby, she is of course the most spoiled thing, as well as protected and loved by her family. Has watched too many horror and sci-fi films. Very jumpy when tired, and always easily frightened- but loves a good scare.

NAME: Louis "Louie" MacDonald AGE: 17 APPEARANCE:FEARS: Anything that has sharp teeth, the evil monkey in his closet vampires, and Freddy Krueger. BIO: Louie comes from a poor family, and often is teased for his hand me down clothes and sometimes dirty exterior, but he is truly a kind soul at heart. He doesn't like spoiled brats and how they rub their fortune in everyone's face, but hangs out with Aria and friends nonetheless, and enjoys a good video game or a sci fi movie. He is part of the school play's crew and handles painting the sets. He has a huge crush on his friend Mikayla and wishes they could be more than friends, but is too self-conscious to tell her his true feelings.

Everyone in this thread who's using a Tektek, CoH screenshot, Champions Screenshot, Heromachine image, other doll maker, OR anime/cartoon character has to change theirs. Descriptive prose or photo realistic images only. Let's see if we can hook you up with a live action actor for Chris Griffin... www.imdb.com/list/Xn3l_JtGnds/Helpful or not?

NAME: Jean ("Yawn" not "Gene") Westwierd AGE: 16 APPEARANCE: See attached image... probably without that guys facial hair. Well, he'd LIKE the facial hair... but probably couldn't grow it naturally... to make up for it, he wears his head hair much longer. FEARS: Has a thing about snakes, and heights, and other things that could seriously wound or kill him, though it's pretty minor and mostly now just caution until he has identified the situation. He's actually worked himself up into being pretty fearless, confronting his fears when he can. BIO: The Westwierd family was a reasonably strict and conservative family, up until the latest generation. Jean's parents missed most of the 70s revolution, and possibly regret it in some kind of strange hindsight sorta way. So when Jean, the middle of three children(older brother, younger sister), started to become a rebelious teenager, he was allowed more than enough leeway to hang himself. He's now a drama queen, an avowed bisexual(he'll claim he's gay, but honestly it's all for attention and he's as interested in women as any other boy his age), claims he is into drugs(knowledge and study of them at least, he's not on any), and taken a stab at being goth and into the occult. His parents were all very accepting of this, and though they clearly frowned on his behavior, at most they simply shuffled him off to the backroom when they had guests over. He's been a little too sensitive to others misery to take any of his cries for attention too far, and as such he hasn't found any real way to express himself, despite being an artistic soul(he is also in the schools art programs and his paintings and drawings have graced both the halls and some minor local gallaries as part of the schools promotional efforts). By his estimations this makes him a failure, and he sometimes can be moody and depressed about it. Most of his attire is self made as well, having taken some cooking, sewing and design classes as electives, which makes his outfits all the more unique(dyed hand me down coats retailored), and potentially embarrassing for his parents. Prior to age 14 he was a very short and roundish child, but hit his growthspurt right as his parents predicted, giving him his currently tall frame. With his normal tendancy to heavy coats and bulky(or puffy) shirts, this makes him look surprisingly big. Despite his eccentricities, he's not particularly outcast by anyone in the school and would fit right in with the jock crowd, if it wasn't for the fact that it would make him "too normal".

So, quick question. Since all of our characters know one another beforehand, are we going to figure out friendships and such beforehand? Because I'm sure they're all friends but at the same time, you know how people in real life have "favourites".

NAME: Charles Vega (or Charlie, or Chuck) AGE: 16 APPEARANCE: FEARS: Spiders, closed spaces. BIO: Charles came from a much better off family than his friends and is an only child. He went into theater and acting at a young age, being in several dozen of the local plays. Because of that, he knows most of the other kids very well. His parents are very supportive of him and his acting. Maybe a bit too much, but he doesn't mind, since he loves doing it. They just also push him to do his best in school. He gets good enough grades, but doesnt give his best effort all the time ,though. He's also usually the one who drives his fellow actors around.
