Vampire Stalker
The misadventures of Bloody Jack
(no need to have read the book series I just wanted to use the character ... And the beginning setting... hence the reason for why this isn't in fandom)
Where: London England, on board the HMS Dolphin
When: August 1794
Who: Mary Faber aka Jacky Faber- new ships boy on board the HMS Dolphin and YOU- whoever you are
Why: we are (orphans) escaping the harsh London winter- harsher for orphan street rats living in the gutters
How: Mary (female) poses as Jacky (male) to gain refuge on ship NO ONE KNOWS THIS BUT HER UNTIL SHE TELLS SOMEONE ABOUT IT Or I tell you that your character can figure it out. This is the only thing I will really stress here
Side notes:
Not intended to be a love at first sight role-play. If love comes up at all please let it simmer and grow before we burst into the hugs and kisses
Your character does not have to be an orphan but please make him a boy as I will be the girl
I may have created this role play but i can not and will not come up with all the ideas on my own. I believe whole heartedly that if this story is to succeed we must both come up with the problems that will make this whole thing worth writing... It is MISADVENTURES anyway so bring on the pirates and other waterborne problems. Savvy?
If at anytime either of us need to double as another character feel free to grab any of the ships crew I will also post along with my own... Just don't use mary/Jacky please. And feel free to add to the crew at anytime or just a random person if we are on shore...
But mostly have fun. If you haven't noticed I'm pretty laid back when it comes to rules but please do follow RpN rules at all times
This part will also be repeated in the rules section.
