Anybody want to play?

Create a character and jump in

How fantasical a story we talking about here? Is there going to be a big occult influence, or more of a realistic feel to it? (I don't write reality well ) Depending on which, I'd gladly jump in. It'd be a chance to play my aristocratic Wilhelm Calimere

You sure?

LOL...well, have you ever read the Vampire Chronicles, or any Anne Rice, you probably have a feel for what to write. On the surface, this is just an avarage family within the old New Orleans planter aristocracy, but there are secrets...spooky ones if you get my drift. Not just vampires, but weirkin, witches, stalkers...just about anything goes as long as it's plausable that it could really be a family that would pass for normal, well, almost normal on the street, but has these little skeletons that just won't stay in the closet

Bridges du Reves is a tall handsome, intelligent, but dark and brooding man who is the last 'known' decendant of a line of extraordinary people...Weirwolves to be exact.

Dolores Peltier is a long lost cousin he knew nothing about, but is a VooDoo priestess of imense power.

Something is going on....but it's up to the writers to develope what that is going to be.

There will be a need of as many players a wish to play. But if you don't play play well with others, don't be surprised if your character gets to play the part of a midnight snack to one of the inhabitants of Manor du Reves

Sounds fun. Let's see what I can put together then

@Scayde:

I'll study what you wanna write then I'll jump into the game... Right?

*hugs*
*kisses*

[Scayde]

Ooo...looks like we have our first immortal !

Coolbeans Aegis

Sounds good Louis

*HUG*

so, do we just make up some sort of character and work them in somehow? Or is this going to be something where someone starts a story and, from there, everyone can add on?

[Scayde]

The story is only very loosely based on the Vampire Chronicals. Basically, you may invent any character you want and develope it within the story. You are only limited by what has transpired already in the story. There is no agenda you have to worry about and in fact, you do not have to be experienced in the Vampire Chronicals at all to play...just develope your character within the framework of the story and write well with the other players. Interaction is always a big factor in doing one of these progects.

To answer your question more directly, you develope your character and work him or her in, and yes, we do add to the story as we go along, but not in the strict sense that you can't reflect on what your character is doing at the same time others are interacting in a different way.

LOL..I always tend to use the DFs as an example because they do this so well, but if you are familiar with their stories, then you have a good idea of what I am talking about

[werebeargoddess]

Aegis ! For one who does not write reality too well, yor first post is outstanding ..I think you may have found your niche !

[Aegis]

Well, it's probably just a confidence problem

Thanks for the encouragement. This'll be a bit of a leap of faith for me, but should be fun, regardless of the calibur of my posting.

I'll tag along, if you don't mind.
