  • the Town of Blackburn
    Dark Modern Fantasy Roleplay

    Someone would think those places you read about in books, the dark leather-bound time-worn books, would never exist. That they are stories only the broken minded think of.

    But in some cases, it is the broken who remember that in which they survived.

    There was once a town, a village perhaps, a small, small place where only a few lived. The town was surrounded by forests and where snow never dared to fall. It was a place you would pass in a moment, never knowing it was there. They had two stores, one diner, and a radio tower that creaked and groaned in the wind. The people who lived there were not strange, nor did they stand out in any way. they were people and people were all you saw.

    They were warm towards anyone who entered and never would lay a hand on anyone. they were good people and that never changed. though they were good and happy, people who went there, more often than not, never came home.

    That is where the rumors came from, despite the fact that these people wouldn't hurt a fly people claimed maddening and strange 'facts' that were never proven due to their outlandish nature. cannibalism, cultists, monsters, or even just plain murderers. those who had never seen the town claimed wild facts and the town became lost. people didn't enter drivers with deliveries refused to go. no one ever left. The town disappeared.

    But people still disappeared near the town. empty cars that crashed, tents in the nearby woods abandoned, homes built less than a mile away gone.

    And the people ignored it claiming that these things were normal as they closed their minds to the idea that something was actually wrong and they weren't just rumors. People disappeared and less and less people cared because it became normal, routine almost.

I'm so freaking interested I can't even describe. It reminds me a lot of Welcome to Night Vale?
(Also, I'm not great at BBCode, so I'm just going to throw up a character concept for now. I can prettify it later if required!)

NAME: Coman Stewart
"People are talking about me. I know they are."

AGE: 22
PRONOUNS: He/Him

Coman is an man standing 5'10" tall with pale skin and a flushed face. His brightest feature is his nose, almost always raw and itchy, his green eyes making the red in his face all the more pronounced. He has a slight frame of mostly wiry muscle. His hair is a mousey brown.
 
I have to say, this seems to be the most interesting thing I've seen in a while! I would love to join if you accept me!

"If I stay quiet I'll be okay,"
19
Female She/Her
A short, petite girl. Very small for her age, only being about 5''4 and very skinny, but not to the point of being unhealthy, as it may look. She has very pale skin, short nails, and an oval face. High cheekbones and small pink lips, lot's of freckles around her face and body. Hazel eyes and short, bright red hair.

It has some inspiration from Night Vale! I was a big fan of it a while back!
There isn't a need to make it pretty! all the characters are going to be put on the character page ;3

whoop, added you both, just waiting for 2 more people :3
 
Clarissa Everheart (also answers to Clary, Claire, or Clark)
Age: 24
I can feel this place breathing.”
Female: she/her

Clarissa has a soft, heart-shaped face. Round cheeks and a small chin support small, pink-stained lips and a twin set of emerald-green colored eyes, the irises tinged with overlapping shades of yellow and red. A light dusting of freckles are scattered across her cheeks, not in enough of an abundance to be noticeable unless you’re looking for them. Her skin is a deep, earthly brown; her hair is long, spilling across her slightly broad shoulders in a wild, dark mass of springy curls that don’t stay tucked behind her ears as they should, tickling at her elbows. Clary stands at 5’5, average height, and her body type is shapely, all deep curves with thick hips and thighs.


This RP sounds like it will be incredible. I’d love to be apart of it. :D

Lilith...
"the end lies here."
17
female/she
shaven head with a large scar that twists from the nape of her neck. she has eyes so intensely green they appear black. her frame is surprisingly strong despite her mental fragility. her face would be beautiful--oval, symetrical, and blemish free--if she didn't have a permanent grimace. her eyebrows are the only indicator of any hair color, which is a dark brown. her skin is a shade of mocha that looks like it's barely alive. her full lips are a blood rushed brown, the upper one scarred by a previous cut. she would have been a beautiful girl.

This looks amazing!! I'd love to be a part of it if you'd have me! I'll admit I haven't listened to more than an episode or two of Nightvale...

Diana "Dice" McCarthy
"We'll get out of here fine if we're lucky- and I'm always lucky."
22
female: she/her
Dice has a mischevious look about her, with bright blue eyes that sparkle when she has a plan. She has fair skin speckled with light freckles from head to toe - especially across the bridge of her nose and on her shoulders- and a lanky but muscular frame. Standing at 6' 2", Dice is a rather tall young woman, a fact accentuated by her long limbs. Her hair is a wavy, warm-toned light brown that reaches down to her mid back and that is usually tied up in a messy ponytail. Around her neck, she always wears a necklace made of a simple chain with two beat up white dice strung to it, which is the source of her nickname.

(No, she's not always lucky. But she does tend to get away with a lot of pranks)
