I tried to do something similar to this, but it kinda died...hopefully you have better luck than me :D Username: Mnyuu Character name: Diana Elucia Stated Age: 18 Appearance: Spoiler Sex: Female Has this character been somewhat famous before? Is known to be a "mad scientist".
Is someone out there? The world had suddenly stopped and Aki's eyes shrank as the bush that hid her amongst the shadows were moved. Her breath leapt to her throat closing in any air that she needed. She panicked and stood up to make a run for it, but her legs buckled underneath her and her body refused to move. Come on legs, move! I can't afford to get law enforcements here, not now. It's a little late to be out. Show's over. Are you lost? The voice was movie towards her now. Aki's heart had now clogged her throat and she attempted to swallow it down, but a raw choking sensation the only thing she felt. Sweat started to race down her forehead as she felt her breath pick up. She looked down at her feet and panicked even more. Come on, come on! Though sneaking about like that, well... She looked up to see who was making there way towards her, no one there. A sudden chill raced down her spine and she felt the world stop again. She breathed slightly. ...It's pretty suspicious. Aki gasped and turned around quickly to see the magician standing right behind her, but fear and panic caused his appearance to be more life threatening. She took a step back, her lips quivering to form useless words, and eyes filled with tears. She was shaking terribly. The only thing she thought she could do logically was... A...ahhhh!!!! Her lungs felt as though they were on fire as she screamed like a banshee. Then her world went black.
Aki watched as the final act engulfed the floor in darkness and before she knew it the show was over. Her heart pained slightly as she watched people stand up and made their ways towards the exit, their voices filled with awe and some disappointment that the show was over. She too stood up and followed the wave of the crowd taking one last glance at the interior of the circus tent then finally stepping out in the chilly air. She shivered and hid her face within the comfort of her sweater, absorbing as much heat as possible. Alright...if I was a circus ringleader, where would I hide my crew? She scanned the area to see if anything seemed out of place as the are slowly started to become more barren. Soon there was only about two families left in the area. She then decided to sneak a peak behind the tent. I wonder if I can get their autographs. She giggled with excitement as she wormed her way through the thicket of the trees and to the backstage area of the tents. Adrenaline pumped to her head and her breathing heavy. It's been a long time since I've done something this exciting. She paused. Voices from the outside caught her attention and she quickly burried herself underneath a bush. She peaked through the brush to see three people. Her eyes squinted to get a closer look. Hey, it's some of those circus performers! She squealed inwardly. Just my luck! Her eyes darted from each face to match their performance names, but the shadows of the night shrouded them in mystery making it hard to distinguish. Damnitt... I can't get enough light source to see their face. Not only that, but now I'm stuck here... . She took a step back in order to get comfortable, but a twig snapped in the process. CRAP!
I saw it as well and I was screaming so loud in the theaters, but I really didn't have any bad nightmares. Idk what your preference in movies are, but if you're looking for a hang out movie with friends that won't bore you, then The Woman in Black would be a good choice in my opinion.
If I was an anime character my draw would have dropped would have been Aki's current thoughts at the moment, but her mind was to broken to even comprehend what she had witnessed. A...a flower grew from the stage...no. A dragon? No that's not right either. She pouted and furrowed her eyebrows in deep thought. And that girl...was she even freakin alive? I mean her body- She paused to think about the moving limbs the attached to themselves on their own to form a average looking body (minus the fact that it was far from normal) and shuddered gravely. The fact that it was cold as well due to the gaping hole wasn't helping her with these chills that crawled down her spine. She pulled out her cell phone and gazed at her clock. How strange...no service. She then looked at the small girl sitting next to her. She looked absolutely terrified. "Mommy, I wanna go home," she whimpered. "Okay sweety...I guess we can go. I'm sure we can come back another day." Aki blinked in utter confusion. Home!? How can they go home after those performances? I mean sure, they may be a bit life threatening, but it's all part of the act...or at least I hope. Her thoughts raced rapidly in her head in attempts to piece together these past few performances. Okay, scarlet devil chick, that was most likely not an act considering she blew a hole in the tent. Flower girl...that could be easily broken down as robotics, yet I'm still a bit sketchy. Fire man...pyrotechnic? Hmmm, ragdoll. My guess a bunch of midgets...or at least I hope. She shuddered. When she tried to think of a logical answer for all of these acts, she couldn't. All except for... That dang magician. Why is it that I still believe that his was all smoke and mirrors? I mean everyone else is super well...freaky, but him. Instead of pulling a rabbit he pulled a lion. BIG WHOOP. ARGH! Why is it frustrating me so much? She sighed. Well I know what I'm going to do after the show. I'm going to meet this so called "magician" and see his real ways of the circus. I guess then they'll satisfy my curiosity. She smiled triumphantly to herself and her plan as preparation for next act began.
Eating homemade fried rice |3 are you still watching yumminess?
Yes you may have a reservation :)
:D Nice, the more the merriers :3
yummies :l
Cleaning up my thread a bit :p whatcha watching?
:D so how are you?
Aki blinked slowly unsure how to react. It has only been two acts so far, and yet she's already pulled in the show. She couldn't comprehend the fact that a lion, no- AN EAGLE flew out of a freakin fedora! And some weird girl with crystalized features seemed to add to the strangeness factor. But the idea of her almost getting killed by knives seems to be part of the show, an act if you will. Of course the ringmasters wouldn't allow the audience to get her. But the fact that part of the circus was destroyed had to be more than an accident. Almost as if... This has all gotta be an act. I mean there is no way that that was possible! Still... She examined the gaping hole within the seams of the tent as the moon shone an almost opaque glow. Her mind flashed back to the act prior to the one she saw, and scrunched her face. That magician...should have known that it was just smoke and mirrors. Nothing really special, actually it's quite normal if you ask me. Nothing really special... but why is it that they hired him then? I mean that Scarlet Devil chick, now she's the real deal, and yet - why is it that I'm still thinking about his act? Maybe its because I've only seen two so far. She sighed mentally and took another pocky stick from her pocket, nibbling in thought and waiting for the next performance.
Aki quickly regained her breath and sat down, remembering that she was supposed to stay hidden from the world. She shifted in her spot and kept her hood over her head. She pursed her lips in slight irritation. A magician? For the first act? Come on isn't magic... overrated? Just a bunch of smoke and mirrors really. And what kind of name is Tellus? Geez, sounds like a deaf gypsy named them. She took out a pocky stick from her pocket and munched on it half-heartedly. Maybe this wasn't worth my time after all... She muttered. Just as she was about to lose interest the magician appeared. He was dressed in a well prepared suit and his hair white as snow. She stopped chewing for a moment and gawked at him with large eyes. His white fedora matched perfectly with the rest of his outfit, contrasting the darkness of the circus floor. Her heart skipped a beat. This is...this feeling... She looked at the man again and pulled a hand to her chest. She smiled. Hmph, maybe this won't be an ordinary magic trick after all. Alright, Mr. Magician let's see if you can amaze me.
Agreed :3 I'm in favor for 2
I wasn't quite sure who was starting their performances first, but I posted ^-^;
The world continued to stay silent in Aki's head as she replayed old memories in her head. Suddenly her train of thought was shattered through the sounding of blasting music and the flashing of dazzling spotlights. Her eyes fluttered open and her heart rate increased immensely. She didn't hear the anticipating crowd roaring behind her, nor excited like squeals from the little girl next to her. She didn't feel the positive energy coursing through her as the audience stood, their voices chanting in excitement. She just sat there; her eyes fixated on the stage. Her heart pounded in her head as a choking feeling swelled in her throat. She felt sick to her stomach. Still she sat there. The curtains opened and she stood up gasping breathlessly like the rest of the audience, but she felt as if this would save her from all damnation. The world around her vanished and all she saw was the stage. This is it...
{The Games} [A shrouded figure in a Grim Reaper's cloak appears in front of you and hands you a letter. You're hesitant at first, but you take it and tear it open. It reads.....] My name is not of any importance, but for now you can call me the Game Master. In these games, I will be testing your greatest strengths and revealing your darkest weaknesses. All are welcomed to participate. I currently have 17 spots open, and if you're the lucky winner you'll receive a fabulous prize! One wish shall be granted for surviving the games. But of course...no one has yet to win. ~ GM {The Gameplay} [Challenge of a Lifetime] This role play will be an action/adventure, horror, suspense theme with many plots twists, numerous outcomes, and well deaths. This will bring a whole new meaning in writing your own fate. The objective of this role play is to outwit the games in wordplay and think of unique ways to pass the tests. You're completely on your own and sharing ideas would be an unwise choice unless the event is a team/tag-team challenge.Since this is a survivor type of role play, your character is allowed to have unique abilities (minus immortality and ultimate knowledge). There are currently 17 spots open (including myself as the Game Master). There will be staff characters within the role play as well, but these are very minor characters that anyone can control. You'll be given 22 tarot card characteristics and your character's personality should be based around that general idea (Max: 2 OCs). I myself will be interacting with the players, but won't participate within the games. The color of your text will be based on your tarot card title coloring. If the colored font is not listed on this forums PM and I'll send you the code if you do not know how to change the color. ||How this works for your OC || Your OC will have a personality that you build on your own, but the strengths and weaknesses of your character will depend on the card you choose. For example: If you choose The Fool, the strength of your character will be that they are open minded, but their weakness is ignorance. At some point within the story, you will have to show these traits. Other than that your character is your own. If you want your character to be an calm, suave, mysterious person then they can be, but at some point they must show the characteristics of The Fool. ||How the Games Work || I have no real storyline, but the story will be created along the way as the characters interact and get deeper within the games. Once every position filled in, they'll be an introduction posting of each character getting into the games. From there we'll have a practice round to get use to the concept of the gaming. Once everyone understands I'll start the actual competition and judging. The actual games will have death provoked obstacles and will require critical imaginative thinking, so surprise me on you approach the obstacles. Each game is an individual round unless it's a team/tag-team battle. Everyone has the same route and obstacles, but they're riding solo throughout the games. That means, you can either let your character survive with little or no damage, come out of the event heavily beaten and/or near death, or even kill your character. The posting will be based as if each character was running throughout the circuit simultaneously. At the end of each round, there is a break where the characters can interact and talk amongst each other. For the team/tag-team challenges, once we have a certain amount of characters, I'll will put a certain amount of people on a team and it'll be a PVP environment. In PVP mode, you can temporarily say your opponents actions, but cannot control their attacks. For example: Correct Format: Team Member - She panted heavily and watched her opponent in the distance, mocking her with a feverish dance. Opponent - He watched from the air, hovering over her in circles and preparing his next move. Incorrect Format: Team Member - She panted heavily and watched her opponent in the distance, mocking her with a feverish dance. She then prepared herself as he dove at her to strike. This is unfair to your fellow player if you say their next move for them, especially if that's not what they were going for. Team - Everyone on your team battles against the rival team Tagteam - Each person on your team fight 1-on-1 against the rival team, simultaneously. {The Rules/Information} [Just because I'm not there within the games doesn't mean I'm not watching. Now what kind of host would I be if I just vanished in thin air?] ♦No God Modding or Power-Playing.

I, myself, have a tendency to overwrite that is necessary, so no limitations. Let your imagination run wild. ♦If your character in inactive for at least 3 days, then I shall dispose of them to how I see fit. ♦ Everyone must at least post twice in each game, unless specified otherwise.
