My World of 1x1s discussion

Did you have any questions? And did you want to change your character's names? In my first post I'll be explaining everything that happened and the character's backstories. It's pretty basic, so you'll be able to customize most stuff.

Just the backstories, mainly. But I want to see your explanation first, maybe?

I'm not quite following

Sorry. ^_^' I might have been looking at something else. You said in your first post you will be explaining everything that happened and the characters' backstories. I assumed that meant you'll be posting some explanations before leaping into anything.

Ah no I meant that would be in my first roleplay post. We'll be establishing some basic things first like characters main traits/details

Oh, okay. ^^ Haha, sorry. So I'm fine with rping guys and in fact I sometimes prefer it. Is there any particular arrangement you want to do? I mean, a suspect for each rper and I suspect you are taking over Samantha, right?

Right. I play Oliver as well.

So the other one is the... butler? Not Fred, right?

Yes, the butler. Frederick

Any particular age ranges or profile you want to use?

About 23 for the two girls, 27 for the butler, 28 for the chief?

Oh, there are two girls? I don't recall that from the description you gave. :P My bad.

Oh, there are. The other is her friend Florence Eddie.

Oh!!! I thought Florence was a guy since it's a guy's name typically (or at least that I know of).

I've always seen it as a girl's name >.> Anyway, you play Florence as well.

Haha, that's funny. ^^ So, with the backstories, is anything needed? Or is it a set story you've made? I would like to know them.

It's pretty much set. It's nothing too big though, so don't expect too much. It's basically just to set the scene or whatever.

So then, what are their backgrounds?

I thought I already said they aren't written yet, but I guess it was in another thread. So... they aren't written yet. Basically it was going to be my prologue, but I changed my plan for it, so it doesn't explain their backgrounds. Basically, Florence is pretty free-spirited, Oliver is a sly asshole, most of the people in the Rogers family were butlers, and Samantha was estranged to/from/of her father.

Oh, okay. Sorry if I wasn't paying attention. I had a lot of stuff going on yesterday. How was the guy murdered, by the way? Was he shot, stabbed, hanged, etc?

Was the plot I showed you the long one with the phrase "something evil lurks the streets of Bridgeport" or whatever at the end? Because he was killed by a werewolf but it looks like a knife attack

How about we post what you had under the requests here. ^^

The town's police force investigates the case for weeks, until finally they discover a clue. Tucked into one of the old books in the Beauregard Mansion's grandiose library, they find Master Beauregard's handwritten will. Scribbled on the back is the name Oliver Laney, the chief of police, and he instantly becomes a suspect.

They then contact Samantha Beauregard, old Master Beauregard's estranged only child. Upon learning of her father's death, she flies out to Bridgeport, Connecticut with her closest friend, Florence Eddie. Samantha is immediately given all contracts and deeds that her father had in his study, inheriting the whole of the Beauregard fortune, as she is the last remaining descendant.

The police eye then falls on Frederick Rogers, Master Beauregard's former butler. According to the town's records, the Rogers family has been working with the Beauregards since the founding of Bridgeport. However, he was the only one in the house at the time, so despite the close relations he is the other suspect.

The police have no evidence for neither Oliver nor Frederick, but there's no other explanation. Little do they know that something evil lurks the streets of Bridgeport.

This happens to be the plot of a book I'm writing. I'll be playing Samantha and Oliver, and you'll be playing the other two. In the case that a male happens to take my offer and wishes to roleplay, we can just roleplay Samantha and Frederick, Florence and Oliver being solely side characters. If a female takes up my offer, feel free to change the name of your characters."

But I guess now my question was answered. In your post above. ^^ Looks like there's a twist!

Yeah, I suppose so!

(view spoiler)[This entire book idea and everything came from The Sims. I was playing it and my Sim had a butler and they ended up having a love affair, which somehow inspired me to write this (hide spoiler)]

Hahaha! What an interesting Sim game. :P Anyways, shall we begin profiles and such? To be honest, I'm not exactly sure where to begin since usually what I write doesn't follow a plot until it's been discussed first. ^_^"

For Florence, basically she is outgoing and perhaps is somewhat of a partier.

I have a history written for Frederick but for everything else you can make it up.

Can you post the written history for Frederick, then?

It's short, nothing special, but yes

Great! Can't wait to see it!
