Mini Event!

[info]oakpond
Event duration: Oct. 4th - Oct. 21st
Since the month started, witches in Moon Lake may have noticed that their powers and abilities have been behaving erratically. One day a simple spell will work like intended and the next... well, let's just say that there may be a witch or two sprouting only one eyebrow around town.

Who... or what... is causing it and how can they fix the situation? Only our resident witches may be able to figure out this odd situation they find themselves in.

Good Morning, everyone! Fisher here with yet another character to throw into the mix

This is May Beaudreau. She has been living in Moon Lake for a few years now. She moved to Moon Lake after her acting career in Boston tanked once it came out that she was Gifted. She still adores performing, though and can't help but want to be on stage. She especially loves signing jazz and playing piano. She performs as a lounge singer at a local jazz club in town. She also is still acting and is part of the local community theater group.

May is eccentric, outgoing and friendly. She is a social butterfly and loves to be out with people, mingling with club regulars or going to parties. She is fiery and has no problems telling people how it is, though she tries to keep her relationships with other people positive, unless they have done something to hurt her or someone close to her.

More about May can be found here

She has family in town, but she lives on her own in an apartment down town to be near where all the "Action" is. And if she can't find any action, she'll try to make some of her own.

May is open to any plots and interactions!

hello moon lakers! (moon lakers?) my name is margot and i am truly dreadful with intros, so bear pls with me. mea culpa.

this little neon moonchild is ruby rhodes. she's a town native who has never taken so much as a step outside it's borders, largely for economic and middle self-sufficiency reasons. the rhodes and ruby in particular are the subject of much town housewife gossip starting from family's volatility to her mother's mysterious (and possibly fae related) dissapearance to her father's alchocol od death to ruby's not-so-secret job as a prositute. ruby is very much a woman-child flying by the seat of her pants and an overweening sense of very misplaced hopes for the future which has only been bitter-sweetly exacerbated by magic™ going mainstream.

personality wise, she is a soft little fool who probably wouldn't survive fifteen minutes in a big city, so honestly for the best she's never left.

her full bio is here, because my sparknotes are absolutely awful. she's is open for absolutely anything anyone may need of her (ooc and ic, ironically). you can find her dropbox over here and you can find me on discord at margalot. wild excited to write with you all!

Hiya! It's michelle here with my second (finally) character. I've got a gifted human and a baby vamp in the works.

This is Henry Brighton. Henry is James' hunting partner. He comes from a family with a long history of hunting and tried to get out of it. Then his parents were killed by vampires and he got roped back into it. He's lost his siblings and spent a little bit of time as a hostage to a nest of vamps. He's a charming guy when he wants to be and can make friends easily when he has to but is pretty moody. He's currently doing work as a bounty hunter to make money.

I am really really bad at introductions (i just realized i never introduced Olwen). He's opened for any sort of plot.

I am sorry this introduction is so horrible. lol

Hello, Everyone! Fisher here with my fourth and probably final character, for a while (though I say taht and watch me app another one next month... >.>)

Anyway, I've mentioned Blair McCormack quite a few times in the chat and he is finally here! He is one of Finn's buddies from the Great War and is one of the Shasta-Klamath Pack lieutenants. Blair is originally from Scotland, but has been living in the US since the early 1940's. He has spent a good chunk of his life working for the Browne Agency, which is an investigative firm much like the Pinktertons, but skewed towards supernatural cases. Please feel free for your characters to have heard of the Browne Agency, as I'm sure they have a reputation among the supernatural and Gifted community

Blair was based out of Boston for a while, but has been literaly all over the country the last 70 years or so. He's been living in Moonlake since 2010 and in 2013 started a private investigating business. He primarily handles mundane cases and sometimes consults with the local PD. However, he'll take on a more "exciting" case if the situation is right.

Overall Blair is a good-natured sometimes goofy guy with an easy smile and a tendency to be impulsive. He can be professional and serioues when he wants to, or needs to be. He's extremly loyal to Finn and the pack and by extension anyone in it as well as those considered Friends of the Pack. Moonlake is his home and he will do anything to defend it. He has a temper and if pushed so far can be incredibly dangerous.

More about Blair can be found here.

Blair, along with the rest of my crew are all open for shennanigans!

Bring me the plots!!

WANTED PBs Open! Anyone who could look like her younger brother.

Isabel's younger brother (who's name is up to you!) is referred in her bio as 'a major pain in the ass and has blown off almost every shift at the coffee house since she took control of it two years ago.' Their parents help run the local coven and have a real hippy vibe. She loves him, but he's also a source of frustration for her and I'd love to have him in game. His motivations for why he doesn't show up to help out are up to you - I'm completely open to collaborate!

hi hello!

[info]oakpond
My name is Clez, I live in the UK, I've been RPing since what feels like the dawn of time, and you can blame your friendly neighbourhood Goldie for subjecting you all to my eccentricities. A little about me: I work a Monday-Friday 9-to-5 office job wherein I have far too much responsibility, I love writing and making icons, and sometimes I'm far too forgetful and scatter-brained.

I'm being ambitious and bringing two at once!

  • Remington Howard is a born werewolf who works as a kickboxing coach at a local gym and is one of four siblings (all the others are male and NPCs up for grabs; one of them is a twin to Remi here!). She's bold, outgoing, outspoken, and she'll have your back in a heartbeat if you're family or pack or just One of Her People. She wears her heart on her sleeve and isn't afraid to just be herself.

  • Cole Danvers (~disunite) is a Gifted human with the powers of precognition, psychometry, retrocognition, and mediumship. He seems to be one of the older characters in the game (mortal, at least) that I can see, and he's worn and weathered and a bit on the world-weary side :( He's been through the wringer and comes with TWs for substance abuse and just general misery and sad-panda-ness. But he knows Mercy through online forums and so he's coming to Moon Lake to crash in her motel room, probably on the floor or couch or something. Work-wise he's a contractor for the hunter community, using his abilities to try and track down supernaturals who might need a'huntin'. It's a shady-ass job and he'll be very tight-lipped about it, thankyouverymuch.

    So those are my two! I'm very excited to be here, but nervous as hell, and also available on discord at inthebloodline -- please come at me with line ideas or just general whateverness :'D I really should be in bed omg.

    The Arrangement

    WANTED PBs Lily-Rose Depp or someone within the same age range

    Long before heading into the realm of mortals, Queen Titania and Aoife were in talks with various noble families from the Spring and Summer Court of arranging a marriage between Lonán and a daughter of the nobility. Lonán is hopeful that it will be someone from Summer, but given the animosity between the two Courts he isn't holding his breath.

    Since Lonán has been in the Winter Court for nearly the past century and a half, I'm looking for someone who really only knows him by his reputation and seen him from a distance when Lonán visited their respective Court. Despite that, they are curious enough about his motivations for coming to the realm of mortals (seriously, who wants to be here???) to find out why and get to know him better.

    The Absent Father

    CONNECTIONS [info]lilblackbird
    WANTED PBs Open

    The Fae. The Mystery. The Enigma. Lonán knows very little about his father as his mother, Aoife, has not spoken a word since his birth in order to protect both him and his father's identity. However, growing up that didn't mean there weren't... rumors. It was this or that noble within the Winter Court and when he kept being passed off from one Court to another, it was this or that noble in whatever Court he was visiting until King Oberon showed him favor during his time in Summer. Then the Rumor Mill really started to grind. Perhaps his father wasn't among the nobility, but was in fact amongst the royals! Perhaps he was That Prince who left Summer and yet to return...

    For the past week there have been multiple reports from town citizens of a ring of dead grass around a gravesite located in the older section of Evergreen Memorial Park. The groundskeeper, Spencer Hodge, and various members of town administration are puzzled how one plot could be effected and, at the moment, the explanation as to the current state of the grass is something within the plot is affecting it.

    Hello, hello! Fisher here again with my third and final character (for now).

    This is Isaac Rasmussen, he's a werewolf who got in to town the same time Autumn did (Autumn's mentioned him in a few of her interactions already). The two of them are living in his Winnebego on a pay-by-the-day lot at the Ridge View Estates. He'll be working with Cam as a mechanic at the mechanic's shop.

    Isaac is a tough nut to crack. He was raised by vampires (read: taught to be their pet), and while he is long past being under their influence, he still has that mindset of "be useful", especially to those he cares about. More about Isaac can be read over here.

    Isaac is also a closet geek. He loves movies (he'll be at Brews & Views next month), and comic books and just geeky things in general. He also drinks way too much coffee/energy drinks and has a weakness for fast food.

    Isaac, along with the rest of my cast are open for anything! I even have a roster now!

    Hello, Hello! Fisher here with my second character. This is Autumn Navarro. She literally just got into town with her friend Isaac. They will be living in Isaac's Winnebago at the nearby RV park, or wherever they can find a place to park.

    Autumn is trying to figure her shit out. She was born and raised to be a hunter and now that she isn't doing that, she's been wandering around aimlessly, both literally and figuratively. Autumn is the type to blurt out whatever is on her mind with very little filter, which makes her come off as being brash and abrasive sometimes, but the upside is that what you see is very much what you get. She's a terrible liar and has a terrible poker face. If you want to read more about her, you can check out her app over here.

    She's currently unemployed, but she loves the outdoors, so residents will see her out jogging, maybe hiking around the lake and river, swimming, just doing outdoorsey stuff.

    I'm looking for her to make some good friends, people who won't be put off by her random outbursts and people who can show her that "normal" is what you make of it.

    Both Autumn and Kennedy are open to any plotting ideas! Hit me up!

    Hi! Goldie here. Here's my second, Mercy.

    Mercy showed up what seemed like overnight. She came to town in her beat-up old car with suitcases and Rubbermaid bins full of stuff. The only place she could afford to move into was a run down 'rent by the week' hotel on the outskirts of town

    If people weren't already aware of the new blonde woman who has been applying anywhere and everywhere, they were met with a morbid curiosity about the town and its inhabitants. See, to her, the best way to get to know people is to frequent the places they have to go: the grocery store, the bar, the gas station.

    At this rate, she'd like to think she's no longer the new girl in town, but that's all subjective. At least she's not asking about your groceries anymore! Please, give her a job. She'll show up on time and not steal office supplies to take home!

    greetings and salutations! i'm benny and i wanted to introduce you folks to kelsey barker: elder himbo werewolf, geriatric twink, textbook virgo (lists, organization, and control are his favorite things), and karaoke extraordinaire. his bio is here because this is going to be a mess, i can feel it.

    kels is originally from texas but moved to la to attend college shortly after high school. he attended ucla to study kinesiology and thereafter was hired to be moon lake's health teacher and baseball coach at the local high school. in his retirement, he owns and operates stagger inn (please ignore boston references; i need to update it), a bar that hosts brew & view (beer & a movie), bend & brew every sunday at noon (yoga & mimosas), and themed trivia and karaoke nights.

    he has four children he's absolutely over the moon for. yes, he's trying to start a franchise. jazmin is 25 and living in la, and he has joint custody of phoenix (10), and arden and aurora (twins, 6). being a dad is one of the things he excels at, especially the dad jokes.

    i'd love to establish some solid connections for him! anyone who knew him way back when in la, stagger inn employees and patrons, fellow small business owners to hype, friends, past/current flirtations, a group for a potluck night, you name it!

    Hello! I'm Jackie (but you can call me Golden), and I have Isabel Howe, and her bio is here.
  • Isabel's family has owned Common Grounds for a super long time. Like, super long. Her brother, Nicholas, is never around and when he is, he's sitting out on the floor having coffee with patrons instead of doing any work.
  • She's a witch-witch, but her primary focus is illusion magic. She also has the gift of persuasion but won't use it on your character unless we're in a log and you ask for it to happen.
  • She has one dog, Doug, who is a massive golden retriever. Surely my name being Golden has nothing to do with her having a golden. wink-wink. She also builds little cat huts and doghouses for the animals that roam free around town.
  • She is so damn sick of being asked what it's like to be the descendant of someone who died in the trials. Hot take: we all were! STOP. ASKING.
  • Her parents are super hippie dippy weirdos. They give away the coffee grounds for people's gardens and are very pro-butterfly gardens. Everywhere.
  • Her brother is a major pain in the ass and has blown off almost every shift at the coffee house since she took control of it two years ago.
  • Her dog's name is Douglas. Yes, she's got a dog, not a cat. It's not that weird, please stop asking her if they connect differently, he's not a familiar, he's basically the closest thing she'll get to a son. NEXT.
  • She's one of the chillest bosses in town. Can't make a shift? Make it up. Is it a weekend shift? Make it up to her, cause she'll be the one covering it.
  • Has a massive matchmaker complex. She loves the idea of love, even if it's not relative to her.

    Okay, now that I've bombarded you with a ton of bullet points, it's nice to be here and I can't wait to get involved soon!

    hello! i'm crystal x and i've been off the rp bandwagon for some months (ish?), but don't we always end up hopping back on and hoping for the best? we'll see how life goes.

    i've brought in daisy, an old char of mine revamped and adapted for moonlake. vampire extraordinaire. bon vivant. professional michio kaku & neil degrasse tyson stan, thief & betrayer, but for GOOD REASONS ok??. who's not been in town for too long, is probably enjoying how sane everybody seems (so far).

    TLDR: she was in a vampire nest mansion in NOLA with a buncha nuts artist types for a long, long time and ended up tipping off some hunters so she could ride off into the sunset... after quietly robbing her ex. so as you can imagine, she's just a totally normal gal, looking for a totally normal time. i was thinking of having her 'work' at the local bookstore (if there is one), or somewhere else if someone wants a coworker! even though she's loaded with cash.

    if anybody wants some (quietly done, since nobody is out of the coffin, yet) true blood-esque or general fun drama that we can build on, etc, hmu bc:

    Player Directory & Server Creation


    [info]moonlake
    [info]oakpond
    Hi all! Just a couple things:
    1. The player directory is ready to go and can be accessed via the front page where it says Members Area next to IC Comm, OOC Comm, etc. For convenience, I'm directly linking to it — feel free to leave your discord info in the comments of the directory.
    2. It was requested that a Discord server be made as a helpful resource for players to interact with one another on an OOC level (chat, get to know each other, plotting). I've made servers for games and groups I've modded before so I'm more than happy to do this if that's what y'all want. As an added option, though, I'd like to throw Guilded into the pot because there are built-in features that I think we can take advantage of as RPers.

    Hey guys! Just wanted to give a little heads up that for the next little bit I'm going to be a little slower than normal - between vacations and summer things, my online time is gonna take a dip for a while. But Tru and I are still here, and I'm slowly working on a second character as well, if anyone needs a sibling or another connection. And as for Tru - well, he's always open and wanting all the things!
