Our Colorful Neighborhood


A sandbox roleplay set in Indigo Way, a fictional gayborhood in Chicago. Inspired by the show Queer as Folk.


Rules


  • Given the setting, this roleplay will focus on LGBT+/GSRM individuals. Cisgender, heterosexual characters are welcome, too, but LGBT+/GSRM characters do get higher priority if spots become limited.
  • At a minimum, posts should be 200 words long. For those who need a visual, there's a spoiler at the end of this bullet--it's really not that much. The only exception to the length requirement is when a player needs to excuse their character from a scene for a bit. In addition, players should be able to use proper grammar and spelling, and posts should be written in third person.
    200 words
    Indigo Way is quite the colorful place: over the years, many LGBT people have flocked to this Chicago neighborhood to make it their new home. Here there is little fear of being called an abomination, for everyone is among their brothers and sisters, and mommas and daddies, of the community. Yes, it's become quite the safe haven for many, but, of course, between the hot sex and fabulous times, the residents have their squabbles--friends backstabbing friends, neighbors being too loud at two in the morning, and that bitch at the other end of the bar just stole your girlfriend.

And
  • Players should post within 7-10 days of when it is their turn to reply. However, it's understandable if real life requires you to take longer. Just let us know and maybe consider allowing whoever you're in a scene with to skip you, if you can't excuse your character with a quick post. If a player hasn't shown any sign of activity within the roleplay in three weeks, their character(s) will be removed.
  • Cross-gendered writing is welcomed here. All players who join are expected to be willing to write with such roleplayers, at least for non-intimate scenes.
  • The roleplay's focus will be on story, so conflict and character development are grand. Having sex scenes for the fun of them is acceptable, but if all you want is sex after sex after sex, this is not the roleplay for you.
  • The roleplay will be placed in non-con for those who want to explore blackmail and coercion. Those who wish to initiate a non-con scene must have written permission from the other player(s), and non-con posts must be tagged accordingly. Also, keep in mind that even though a scene may be non-consensual, a player's offs must still be respected, and if a player wishes to back out of a scene, this too must be respected. Breaking this rule will not be tolerated.
  • Characters should be at least 18 years old and human. Some character ideas should probably be run by me first: business owners, celebrities, and any similar characters that may substantially impact the roleplay or IC world. More likely than not, I will accept such ideas, but it can still be helpful to mention it in advance. A player is permitted to have up to 2 PCs.
  • Again, please respect a person's O/Os. If someone you are interacting with has incorporated an off of yours, please PM them about it. If they refuse, contact a GM. Please also keep in mind that consistently ignoring players' offs is grounds for reporting to Elliquiy's staff.
  • In general, be respectful to the other players. Any conflicts that arise should be discussed, in an adult manner, via PMs. If a resolution cannot be reached, then contact a GM. Passive aggressive behavior will not be tolerated in the OOC.
  • This falls into the category of being respectful, but to be explicit, do not ignore a player's IC post. Characters are allowed to ignore each other, in which case it should be mentioned in the IC post, but players should never do so.
  • Remember that IC posts are just that: IC posts. A character may be homophobic, sexist, or a straight-up bitch, and they may even despise your own character, but ultimately, a player is not their character. Do not take IC posts personally. Inability to separate IC from OOC, in any way, will result in immediate removal from the game.
  • If a player drops from the roleplay and leaves their character stuck in a scene, then that character will become an NPC until they can be removed from the scene by the GM(s) or another player.
  • Barring the above rule, no god-moding or auto-hitting without the other player's consent. On the auto-hitting note, if fighting ever does happen, please be fair and realistic with it.
  • To get the most out of this game, it is greatly encouraged that players plot with one another.
  • If you have any questions or a problem in regards to the roleplay, please contact me either in the OOC or via PM and I will be more than happy to help you.
  • Lastly, as GM, my word goes. I'm reasonable, and some things are open to discussion, but when I explicitly say a decision is final, it should be abided by.

The Neighborhood

Indigo Way, located on the north side of Chicago, is an LGBT community full of various shops and eateries. There are a few apartments, but two in particular are Parker Commons and The Kensington. Parker Commons, tucked off in a southern corner of the neighborhood, offers simpler one- and two-bedroom apartments for a more affordable rate. The Kensington, a luxury high-rise, stands just outside of Indigo Way's northern boundary, closer to the lake.


Characters Thus Far

This is just meant to be a quick reference for those who are interested in joining. I would still recommend reading the character sheets (link below), but here is what we have so far:

  • Author - female
  • Parker Commons Landlord - female
  • Fashion Designer/Waitress/Musician - female
  • Actress - female
  • Modern Dancer - female
  • Future Occult Shop Owner - female
  • Detective - female
  • Yoga Instructor - female
  • Cam-girl, model (porn/nude/art) - female

  • Employee of the Chicago Film Office - mtf
  • Photographer - gender queer/non-binary

  • Tattoo Artist - male
  • Assistant Baker - male
  • Owner of Ordeal, a sex shop - male
  • Mechanic - male
  • British TV Hosts - male

Creating a Business

Some businesses are player-created. Currently, anyone can create a business, though it is encouraged that people fill in spots needed for the others if they want a service or retail job.

Each business must be unique, so no two clothing stores or salons, for example. If a player wants to create a new business, they must supply the following information, perhaps after asking about the idea first:


  • A picture (optional)
  • A blurb: what the business does/sells and what it looks like if a picture isn't supplied. This can be as simple or as detailed as you like, but try to make it no longer than two paragraphs
  • Hours - we will play weekends most of the time, so keep this in mind when choosing the hours
  • If you're playing the owner/manager of the business, will you allow other players to fill in positions? If so, mention any positions you particularly want filled. If any NPCs will be filling any of the positions, list the NPCs' names and positions.

Below is a basic skeleton. Embellishing it is fine.

Asking other players for help or feedback is totally fine, but typing up the information and showing it to a GM will lie in the hands of the person who requested the business.

Biography



Bio: Kat was born in Sicily to an Italian businessman and a small-time fashion designer. It wasn't long after she was born that they moved to Chicago and she even grew up not far from the building she currently resides in. The family had spent many summers either in Sicily or Russia, her mother was Russian. She'd liked Sicily a little bit more than Russia.
       When she was 13, Kat had started helping her mother with the making clothes thing and she really enjoyed it. That's how she'd saved up enough money to buy a car once she was driving age. Her father didn't like it and was always trying to push her to be more interested in his business. He owned a small conglomerate that focused on the entertainment industry. It was how he and her mother had met, she'd been a model/designer before getting pregnant with Kat. The girl had really had no interest in the whole corporate thing and she'd finally proven that she could make an okay living doing what she loved. She'd been taking violin and piano lessons her entire life. Violin since she was 7, piano since she was 5.
    At 16, she'd been allowed to travel to visit both sets of her grandparents alone and while in Sicily she'd met a woman who opened her eyes to the world of love and sex. She'd been devastated when she'd had to leave after an all too brief three months. The next year, while in Russia, she'd met a man who made her feel almost the same things. That was when Kat had realized that she was bi-sexual and after she'd come back home to Chicago, she had come out to her parents. Not long after that, her mother had died and that set the young girl off into a tailspin. She started partying a lot, engaging in risky sex, and worrying her father half to death.
     She'd left home two months shy of turning 19 and had found a home over in Indigo Way. By now, Kat had already made a small name for herself in the fashion industry around Chicago. Not anything too big, just small things for people who could afford custom made clothing and the occasional wedding or bridesmaid dress. She's still waiting for her big break. She waitresses to earn a living but supplements that with designing clothes for people and combining classical violin with electronic music/dubstep for commuters waiting on the train when she has spare time. She enjoys both equally.
Relationships:WIP
Friends: Dmitri Fleming, Brad Stern (roommate)

Biography

D grew up in a poorer neighborhood of Chicago, one where boys and many girls usually ended in a gang or victim of a gang. He managed to avoid too much trouble with gangs and refused to join one.

Early he displayed a talent for art, primarily drawing. He not only had a talent for it but a passion. He could always be found with pencil and paper making all sorts of drawings.

In his early teens he also developed a passion for dance, but living where he did he could not get any formal dance training. He did however find a dojo where he could learn their art if he cleaned up and did other work for the owner and teacher. As he learned martial arts his teacher had him doing all the artwork for the dojo. He enjoyed this as many of the moves and practice was very dance like. The only reason he competed in tournaments though was because his teacher insisted.

At age 16 he developed a crush on a girl about the same age who had recently moved to his neighbor and he went to school with. However before he could express his interest in her life got in the way. On a Saturday evening when he was on his way home from the dojo he spotted her on the street, unfortunately so did three members of the local gang.

They made it clear that she was to “party” with them and they were not going to take no for an answer. When D came to her aid violence ensued. He was out numbered three to one and they were armed while he was not, he however had a couple of years of martial arts training. This training kicked in and in the end the girl ran off and got away. He had been cut across his chest and shot in his left thigh. The three gang members were also down with broken bones. All four young men went to the hospital where one of the three died.

Despite it being gang violence and he had just been defending himself and the girl. He was prosecuted for manslaughter as an adult and found guilty. So at the age of 17 he found himself in a penitentiary with men much older, more mature, and far more hardened. This is where he learned that he could enjoy some bi tendencies as a bottom, he never really got into being the top even when he could, he prefers females for that.

It was in prison that he developed his skill with ink. Somebody saw his drawings and insisted that he tattoo him. It soon became evident that his talent for drawing translated well to tattooing. Once it was learned that he could this his life in prison improved as he suddenly had something other than his young body that the other men wanted.

After doing his time he took the money he got upon his release to buy a used Harley and proper tattooing equipment. He then spent several years basically just on his bike traveling around the country going wherever people gathered that would want ink. He lived frugally saving every dime he could until he could get enough together open his own studio.

He finally reached that point and decided to return to the city he grew up in, just a better neighborhood. After getting his apartment and the small space for his shop  as well the best tattooing and piercing equipment available he has enough money to survive on for a few months. He however is not worried about continued income as he has developed a reputation and much of his work has been featured in some of the magazines. He has also put together a web sight filled with pictures of his work.

Biography

Maggie grew up in the neighbourhood, went to school in the neighbourhood, in fact the only time she left the neighbourhood was to go to university in Madison WI. She returned with a degree, and worked for ten years in various dead-end jobs, some retail, some in real estate, one in a care home that was shut down due to lack of funding, until she found that the apartment complex she had grown up in was in need of a building manager. She applied for and got the job, and immediately set about cleaning up the place, kicking out the squatters and pushers, fixing up the apartments, actually spending the money she was allocated by the owners, rather than just lining her own pockets with it as the previous incumbent had done.

Her father passed away two years ago from lung cancer, one reason Maggie doesn't smoke. Her mother now lives in an old folks home in the neigbourhood. She has a kid brother who joined the navy and spends most of his time in Norfolk VI, is married with two kids and is looking to be promoted from Commander to Captain in the near future.

She's had a number of short-term relationships over the years but is still looking for that one special someone she can settle down with.

Maggie is a no-nonsense person. She doesn't take shit from anyone, especially not her tenants. If you give her grief, she gives it right back! But if you get on her good side she can be the sweetest, kindest person going. She has been known to give people who are struggling a month's rent-holiday if they need it, she is always quick to get things fixed when they break, but woe betide the tenant who deliberately breaks stuff, or simply doesn't pay the rent - especially if they are spending money elsewhere!

She is reasonably tolerant of parties, so long as she gets invited! She turns a blind eye to cannabis being used on the premises, but if she learns that anyone is dealing anything stronger she will put her foot down. She doesn't indulge in weed herself, in fact she doesn't smoke. Her only real vice is a bottle of 12 year old single malt scotch whisky that she replaces whenever it gets emptied. She has a black-belt in Judo.


Relationships

Friends: TBC

Enemies: None, I hope?

    Biography

    • Brad was the result of a bump in his parents' marriage. His mother had an affair with another man after her husband admitted to having one. After some counseling, they stuck together, though it seemed it was primarily for their kids, as they divorced a year after Brad started college. He has two brothers, Andrew and Michael, who are seven and eight years older than him, respectively.
    • Brad learned he wasn't "really" part of the family during an argument with Andrew. He was eight at the time. It wasn't until a few years later that he learned the specifics. Over time, he picked up on what made him different from most of his family; his hair and skin were like his mother's, but he swore he got his looks from his biological father, and everyone in his family had green eyes, not brown.
    • Starting seventh grade, he put forth a lot more effort into school and sports, not happy with giving less than 120%. This drive only intensified in high school. Homework took a lot longer; a one-page essay would take hours and it still wouldn't be good enough. The slightest mistake on the football field or on the basketball court would leave him beating himself up for the rest of the night. He joined clubs, started working as soon as he had his license. In junior year, he enrolled in as many APs as possible on top of all of that. No way he could balance it all. It affected his grades. Eventually, his parents convinced him to stop working, and, reluctantly, he minimized the clubs he was in. It made him feel like a failure.
    • That summer, he started therapy for his problems. It was a little rough, but he learned to let go of perfection, enough that his expectations became more realistic and he could function more healthily. By that time, graduation was just around the corner.
    • He started going to the University of Chicago as a pre-med student, but he stuck with it for only a semester. Brad had gotten a part-time job at a bakery. In eighth grade, his dad had started to teach him how to cook (something that became their bonding time for a couple of years), which led him to gain an interest in baking. However, it wasn't until he started working at the bakery that he learned he would much rather do that for a living. He dropped out of University of Chicago and started taking pastry classes. Upon getting his associate's degree, he started working at the bakery in Indigo Way.
    • He moved to Parker Commons when he was twenty-one.

    Biography

    Adam was born in Indiana to a dad who worked in a factory and a mom who waitressed. His brother, Brian, came along two years later. Adam was the rowdy one of the two, always running around and jumping off of things, and sometimes he would try to roughhouse with his brother, much to his displeasure. Brian was more of the sensitive nerdy type. Like a lot of siblings, they had their arguments. It wasn't until Adam was in third grade that they became closer. His brother had a bit of a bully problem, and although their parents suspected, he never admitted to it. It became clear one day at the park when a boy started picking on him. Adam did what just about any older brother would do: he stepped in. He got in trouble for it, but Brian was appreciative, and that was enough for him to develop a protective side toward anyone who couldn't defend themselves.

    Except in high school, when it came to the district's only out gay guy, at least initially. His name was Paul. Adam watched the torment for two years before deciding to do something. The other guys gave him grief for it. They started calling him gay, suggested that he had a thing for Paul. Both were true, but he wasn't ready to admit to either. He started dating a girl who was also a junior, Chelsea, to cover up. That didn't stop him from kissing Paul, though, next year. They had a bit of a fling for a few months that ended after Paul pressured him to come out. He roughed him up for it, and they never spoke again after that.

    By then, graduation was just around the corner, and Adam made the decision that he would join the Marines. Chelsea was still dating him. He made the hasty decision to propose to her and have a quick wedding before he left for basic. And about halfway through his five-year term, his son was born while he was away.

    He couldn't handle it. If being in the military taught him one thing, it was that life was too short. A month after he finished serving, Adam asked for a divorce, and a few months later, it went through. He left the scorn of his family and a son who barely knew him behind and fled to Chicago. It didn't take long for him to become homeless, having no luck holding down a job. Desperate, he started selling his body. It was one client, a regular, that really helped him get back on his feet. He knew the extra money was given out of more than just pity, and even without that knowledge, he hated accepting it, but he still had child support to pay, and he hated being on the streets. Their "relationship" ended when the man couldn't get the true intimacy he yearned for, but by then, between him and his other clients, Adam had saved up enough to afford his own apartment.

    That was when he moved to Parker Commons. He got a job as a dancer at one of the clubs in the area, primarily as a means to have taxable income. He still escorts, and he doesn't see himself stopping anytime soon.

    Oh? I checked her birthday on the previous one but didn't even think to look at her age. It's definitely something that would've been too good to pass up. Her birthday might not have passed too long ago IC, either. We'll probably have the starting month be July. Maybe September. Somewhere in that ballpark.

    You know, I could probably see that, too. She seems like someone who would be pretty badass.

    I might have this vague idea for a celebrity (a male model), though. But I have to figure out some more because now it's pretty darn shallow.

    Biography

    Until about two years ago, Alejándro was a normal young man, working at a local Gym in San Francisco for a living. Coming from a normal, middle class family, he had lead a rather normal, unspectacular life thus far. His father, immigrated from Puerto Rico was a car mechanic with an own garage, his mother, a born American a nurse at a local hospital. A truly normal, middle class family, like million others.

    That was - until this model scout ran into him. This encounter changed Alejándro's whole life, in a heartbeat. He was approached while doing some workout after his shift, given a business card, with some 'Hey, you're good-looking. Ever considered making some photos?' Go figure - Alejándro thought that it might be a hoax from some friends, and he didn't really take it all quite serious.

    Not until he decided to dial the number on the business card and made an appointment, still thinking it must be some joke, or maybe candid camera. He went there, to this modelling agency, not really thinking much about it.  But hey, he was curious! They took some photos, they set up a portfolio and took him up into their roster, with Sedcard and all, of course. Was a reputable Agency, after all, and not some shady backroom business.

    No three weeks later, Alejándro's phone rang, and on the other end was a male voice, introducing himself as Diego Miguel De La Fuente, telling him that he was a model agent working for a big, reknown agency in Chicago, telling the young man that he had been noticed and, even better, booked! By a European, no less! Some famous, Italian fashion designer came across his portfolio while looking for new, fresh faces - and now he wanted him for a test shooting, and, given that it would go well, as testimonial for his new Spring Campaign. That was....damn. YES! Shit, it was like a rush, and Alejándro agreed. He was euphoric, and even that was an understatement. He was going to be a fucking model. In Europe, no less! He packed his bags, and three days later he was sitting in the plane with Mr. De La Fuente, on the way to Paris, to meet that designer there. Paris, for gods sake. He barely ever had been out of town and now - Paris!

    The campaign was published and this made him famous, overnight, practically. Everyone wanted him. Armani, Calvin Klein, Dior, Chanel, Versace and whoever else with a name in High Fashion. They all wanted him - on their runways, in front of their cameras, on the cover of their magazines and on their billboards. Within the year, there was hardly any magazine that didn't have his face on their covers.

    Despite all the fame, Alejándro likes his friends from the past. He might live in another world now and move in other social circles, but he never forgot where he came from. He bought his parents a bigger, better house in a better area of San Francisco, he helped his father some when he had financial trouble with his business. While he jets around the world, Milan, Paris, Rome, New York, etc., he does like it to come home now and then, but he often doesn't have the time he'd like. But, hey, Instragram, Twitter and Skype are nice to keep in touch with his family!

    Just recently, his agent had acquired a new apartment at The Kensington for him to stay at, because his mother agency, 'Chosen Management' has its headquarters in Chicago.

    It is not a big secret that Alejándro is gay, even if that certainly is not an issue in his line of work, neither in the social circles he moves in. Being a gay man is probably as common as being vain, shallow and beautiful in the fashion world. He rarely speaks about it because that would be like talking about him liking Mexican Food. Alejándro does not flaunt it (because he thinks that it's totally silly). Why should he? It is as much a part of himself as getting up in the morning and reading the newspaper. If some paparazzi or all-too-nosy reporter asks, he usually comes back with something like "Can't we talk about something that's actually interesting?"


    Relationships

    Friends: -pending-

    Enemies: Probably one or the other male model. Tough business, that, and competition is killer.

    Others: His manager and agent - Diego Miguel De La Fuente - A rather well known entrepreneur and model agent


    Additional Details

    Known gossip about Alejándro


    • He is sleeping with a certain Italian designer that made him a star.
    • He is having a relationship with his agent. The Scandal! That man is married, to a woman!
    • He has been in a clinic, twice at least, because of his alcohol problems.
    • He takes a lot of drugs (mostly Cocaine), to stay in shape.
    • He has a whole lot of one-night-stands, especially at After Show Parties, with other models, photographers, etc.
    • He is, apparently, a bitch to work with. High maintenance and all this shit.

    Adam might be inclined to agree. Alejandro's car would be awesome to race around in, but the Impala would catch his eye more.

    Also, Dmitri's tattoo parlor has been added to the list of business. Sorry, completely forgot about that.

    Well there is something D and Adam have in common.

    Awesome! Thank you, I was actually not expecting it to go up unless this thing really got off the ground. I only added it to my CS so that I would know where it was when needed.

    I figured Dmitri would have only been living and working in the area for only a few months, but would at least know Maggie as the building manager and calls her Ms. H. If he is the one to have put that beautiful cobra on her back though that would have him being a bit less formal with how he addresses her. He will have also likely learned about her orientation by attempting to flirt with her during the hours she spent topless with him. At which point he would have respectfully backed down. Does not mean that he might not occasionally still flirt a bit or give her a little friendly teasing about maybe trying the sausage.

    Yep! That's why I cannot add stuff like 'Sexual Ons or Offs' to a sheet, because... I do not know, yet. That's not really something I give a lot of priority while creating a character. Sooner or later, he'll tell me.

    I figured Dmitri would have only been living and working in the area for only a few months, but would at least know Maggie as the building manager and calls her Ms. H. If he is the one to have put that beautiful cobra on her back though that would have him being a bit less formal with how he addresses her. He will have also likely learned about her orientation by attempting to flirt with her during the hours she spent topless with him. At which point he would have respectfully backed down. Does not mean that he might not occasionally still flirt a bit or give her a little friendly teasing about maybe trying the sausage.

    Hmm.

    Dunno. I'll have to think on it, read Dmitri's history more carefully. Flirting is fine, and Maggie will simply state that she prefers kippers!

    There is one possibility that might work and that is having the tat be a work in progress, with the image I posted being what it will look like when it's finished? What do you think?

    Awesome! Thank you, I was actually not expecting it to go up unless this thing really got off the ground. I only added it to my CS so that I would know where it was when needed.
    No prob! Yeah, no harm in putting it up now. I'm just really terrible about forgetting things.

    No. If you look I have moved her to a care home for the elderly where she gets everything done for her... Having mom around was cramping Maggie's style a little!
    Herp derp. I completely overlooked that when I glanced back through it. Never mind, carry on. :-)

    Biography

    Maria was the firstborn out of three children in an upperclass-family based in North Carolina. Both her parents were business-tycoons, so money was never an issue, but as one would expect, they were busy. They would rarely be at home, using most of their time to travel and work, which led to few hours at home and a weak relationship to their children. A nanny was hired to keep an eye on Maria, and she worked there for almost ten years before being taken for thievery, making her parents reluctant about hiring a new one, leaving Maria to herself. Considering her age, they didn't figure it was a big deal, and to be fair, it wasn't. Eventually, a second child came, and not too long after that, a third, which led Maria into an early mother-role. As she grew older, her relationship with her parents worsened, finding them irresponsible, and as she turned 18, she didn't think twice about moving from home. Her parents wanted her to go to college, but she had other plans.

    So in the end, she turned to becoming an author. Many nights after her siblings had gone to bed had been spent reading in the large library that their house sported, and she had found interest in picking it up as a craft herself. She had worked on a larger book for a long while, and soon after she moved from home, she started working on getting her first work published. And after a long and tedious search for a publisher that would even look at her work, and half a year worth of editing, her first work was published, with a sequel in the workings. Her first book had a rather mixed reception, but it was positive enough to give her a second try, and with a marginally different second book in her series, it took off. She had corrected the flaws with the past work, and taken a lot of twists and turns, changing around a lot, for the better it seemed.

    And soon enough, it became her trademark. The one who never wrote the same thing twice. With a minimalistic amount of reappearing characters and locations, plotlines and story-points, it became something in a genre of its own, by simply being a bit of everything, a concept just bizarre enough to work. As time went on, the books slowly tied together with one another, which in itself made her a headline author for a very long time. With works often taking up several list-spots on best-seller lists, she was undeniably what one would call successful.

    There was a fair bit of controversy mixed into the picture as well however. Claims of cultural insensitivity, terror-support, racism and homophobia were common topics, though in most cases it was shot down as quickly as it fired up.

    Maria moved to Indigo way through a desire to write a homosexual character, though her editor quickly claimed it impossible since she was anything but homosexual herself, which was what turned her to move into a neighborhood heavy on homosexuality, to observe and learn.

    Literature up-to-date: Maria has written a wide range of different genres, although she has taken a liking to modern, realistic settings. Few of her books have many reoccurring factors, most changing complete casts with a minimal amount of returning characters. She explained in an interview that she didn't like writing the same characters for too long since she felt that the more she wrote with them, the less control she had over them. That, and that she found new concepts all the time and was more interested in writing for them instead.

    Her flagship series so-to-say would be the seven-part series named Sinners. It was released over the course of five years, though the three first binds had been written before the first one was published. The series, as the name implies, takes inspiration in the seven cardinal sins, each book using a different sin with new characters, with some vague tie-ins between the books. The genre of each book changed around between the various titles, leading to a lot of mixed opinions.
    (Should it be needed at some point I'll include some more about the actual content of the books, but for now, I'll leave it as this so I'll have a bit more freedom of speech).

    Making the cobra a work in progress is a great idea, he would work on it for as long as she could take the pain and pick it up again when she is ready. His response to her statement would be to say, "That's cool, so do I, doesn't mean I can't enjoy sausage every once in a while though." From there though he would simply be just friendly for the most part, with some friendly tease flirting.

    Lyron

    ReaperDouble0 - What GaGa said - I like her. She looks like a great character so far (I only say "so far" since you said there might be some tweaking later). This will probably sound weird, but I like her slight homophobia. Maybe it's just because of one site (not E) that colors this perception, but it doesn't seem common for that kind of thing to be implemented in roleplays that are LGBT-friendly, so it's a bit refreshing in a way, and it'll be fun to watch her grow.

    If you want constructive criticism, I might suggest maybe come up with one more trait since it sounds like the homophobic one isn't going to have as much permanence as what the other ones might, but that's certainly not a must.

    Biography

    Agent for 'Chosen Management' modeling Agency for the past eight years.

    He is originally from San Francisco, but his agency has recently moved their headquarters to the Chicago area.

    He's been married for the past nine years. Back then it had been all over the papers, while Diego still had been walking the runway as an active model. Didn't happen a lot, after all, in a demanding, often shallow and fast-paced world, that someone would find a partner willing to deal with the absences of a partner, the stress, the paparazzi and actually settle down.

    But - things are not as they used to be. Maybe it was the fact that he was gone a lot, jetting around the world to acquire new clients, meet up with already existing clients or just to make sure his employees (aka. models) were well settled within the fashion industry. Either way - Diego isn't at home a lot. This line of work hardly allows for much privacy, and many relationships end up as 'long distance', generally with an expiration date. The love between him and his wife, Alisa, has died out a while ago, so many hateful words and actions between them that it is inconsolable at this point.

    So then, why do they stay together? Obligation, publicity, some misguided notion that something will change and some spark will ignite again? Many people say that it won't happen, that she already is sleeping around with other men, others say that she had taken herself a lawyer already for the divorce, and again others claim that his wife is jealous because of the constant rumor about him once again having an affair with one or the other of his models - male and female alike. Whatever it is - lately, the magazines once again are filled with gossip about his person.

    There are these rumors that he's got a more than professional relation with one of his models. Is it true? Or is it some fiction pulled up by some tabloid to get people to talk? Gossip happens fast in the fashion world, and not everything that is said is the truth.

    However, Diego isn't saying. When asked about his personal affairs, he simply lets it be known that it isn't polite. Either way, despite being behind the scenes in the modeling business, he is still a man of interest and celebrity in his own right. He is, himself a former model, after all and thus, his knowledge about the fashion world is huge. He certainly knows his way around, how to deal with photographers, eccentric fashion designers and aspiring, young and quite often bitchy models. And, most important - Diego knows how to make a good share. There was a lot of money to be made in this line of work for those knowing how to get it. There are still many who want to know what happened to this person, and Diego still holds quite some fame for himself. Some even say that he is one of the best model agents around (probably due to his vast knowledge and his excellent connections all over the world).

    Such systems are pretty much standard, anyways, nowadays. Not only because of theft, but for general security as well.

    D got his bike used when first getting out of prison, so it was not overly expensive, he has just kept it so long and taken good care of it. Now it is barely vintage and hardly a classic. Next to his state of the art tattoo equipment it is easily his most expensive possession and his baby. Decent security is likely one of the reasons he chose Parker Commons for his home though.

    Kane, Diego looks great.

    Well, it's a bit different. I don't know how well I'll pull it off, I have no experience with being a homophobe, but I'll try my best to weave it in as well as I can ^^ She's not going to be some extremist gay-hater or anything, just a tiny bit of prejudice that'll get worn down over time. It probably won't extend further than making an insensitive comment or two going by stereotypes.

    And I'll see what I can do ^^

    Of course.

    I mean, let's face it. He's male. He is a fashion whore. He's a model on top of it. ~laughs~ That just screams stereotype - especially to people with prejudices. Even if someone does not know that he is gay I can see comments like "Oh, he must be a homo, with THAT job." It's a pretty common prejudice, after all, that each male model or each man in that industry must gay.

    I'm sure there are, I'm just speaking from my own experience ^^ I dunno, maybe it's connected to economic class, localization and whatnot, or maybe you just know a lot of fashionably dead homosexuals, not that I have the right to comment since most of my wardrobe consists of hawaiian shirts.

    I can dress nice, I just decide not to. I've kind of just fallen asleep in the business casual look, looking just good enough for my job and staying there. Then again, it's not like I have a reason to wear a suit to work either, being a teacher here doesn't have a very demanding dress-code. If there was one, I think it would read "Wear clothes".

    Personally, I like casual clothes best. Jeans, some t-shirt when it's warm, hoodie when it's cooler. Now and then I have to wear formal at work, though. Usually depends on the clients. I like wearing a nice suit, just not all the time!

    Hey, there's nothing wrong with a good collection of Hawaiian shirts, that's about as dressy as I get, unless it is a bit cooler and want long sleeve. Than I have a selection of purple to chose from. Haven't owned a suit in years, and never a good one, but that's primarily due to being of a lower income. It's so hard to find suits that look good second hand.

    I started buying them in my first year of university. Costed about 20NOK (≈3 dollars) per, which was a rather reasonable price for someone living off of rice and cheap noodles. And then it just kind of became a thing. I have a full suit (I really don't like business-skirts and that kind of wear, so I ended up getting a suit for occasions it's needed) and I like wearing it, but it's a bit too expensive to go around with on a daily basis.

    Casual is usually both the best choice though, both with price tag and looks in mind. Looking too fancy can seem pretentious, at least if it's done every day. What do you work with, if you don't mind me asking? Not many jobs (here anyways) demand suits anymore, so I'm curious xD

    Yeah, I just feel most comfortable in the casual kinda stuff. And yes, you may. :-) I am working for an Advertising Company. Team Supervisor and creative consultant for the creative team. And now and then business look is required.

    That is a very reasonable price. The only way I could them at that low a price was at the thrift stores. I started buying pretty with my first job back in my teens. Took ages to get my mother to start buying them for as gifts instead of something I would only wear to make her happy because he got it for me. Now I have a few that she actually made, most though are ones my wife bought.

    Well, from my experience of gay women, most of them (tho not all) have little to no dress sense - me included! I tend to wear whatever is comfortable.

    Yeah, Reaps, could be entertaining when the landlady comes to collect the rent, if she lives in the commons... *snigger*

    I've seen a lot of the same. I dunno, maybe it's because women often tend to be a bit more fashionable? So basically polar opposite of the stereotypical gay man?

    Hmm... Yeah that could certainly be an interesting occasion... I plan on having her be quirky overall though, so there shouldn't be lacking of fun things to play around with, I'm already planning ahead a few things that should make for some rather hilarious encounters ^^

    We do seem to be slower to accept things that should have been accepted already, but I'm glad we decided to get with the program. I don't know abpout any other states, but Texas' Governor signed a bill yesterday that states that if priests/reverends, justices of the peace are unsettled or morally against same sex marriage, that they don't have to marry them. Sometimes, I hate living in Texas but it's great aside from the bigots.

    I was told by a good friend that you needed a couple of female characters to be added to the story.  I am interested but as I think of my characters I need to know what kind of jobs need to be filled or if there is room for a new business in the game.  Also what sexuality is needed for these female characters.  I'm comfortable playing, Straight, lesbian or bi.  doesn't matter to me. 

    Although I did see that my dear old friend Nic is in them game... might need to make a character for him to play with as well if its needed.  Nic is one of the few people I know that I'll play a male character for. 

    Will be waiting to see whats needed as I consider characters for the game.

    Thx.  ~Nim~

    Nico

    Why would you need a male character to write with me? ~is confused~

    Nim

    Good question.  I don't really need a male character to write with you.  But if I remember correctly for physical relationships you only write m/m.  I was only saying you are one of the few I know of who I would write m/m with.

    Hello! Welcome! We don't have any jobs that necessarily need to be filled, I don't think, unless someone has something they want to suggest, but here's what we have so far:

    • Model
    • Model Manager
    • Lawyer[/i]
      • Fashion designer/musician/waitress
      • Author
      • Landlord for Parker Commons
      • Tattoo artist
      • (Assistant) baker
      • Escort and gogo dancer

      There is room for a new business, yes. And it doesn't really matter what the sexual orientation is. You might have more options with a bisexual or a lesbian, but whatever you want to play or whatever you think works best for them, go with that. :-)

      Let me know if you have any other questions!

    To help things seem a little clearer I will add some more:

    • Model: Male gay
    • Model Manager: Male bi
    • Lawyer: Female lesbian
    • Fashion designer/musician/waitress: Female bi
    • Author: Female hetero w/mild homophobia
    • Landlord for Parker Commons: Female lesbian
    • Tattoo artist: Male hetero w/bi tendencies
    • (Assistant) baker: Male gay
    • Escort and gogo dancer: Male gay but will fuck anybody for a price

    I hope this helps.

    The only business listed in the first post run by a PC is the tattoo studio and most of the others don't have any employees listed. Haru has left it open for a player to take on the role of any of the business owners/managers. As he said I don't think there are any jobs that need to be filled.

    On a personal note I think it would be very interesting if somebody were to play the female from Dmitri's past, mentioned in his bio/history. This would mean that she would have to be in the range of 36 to 38 years old, it's been 21 years since they have seen each other. Sexuality is not important.

    Thanks for providing the extra details! And yes, employees or owners/managers could be taken over or filled in for any of those businesses. All of them except Sweet Sensations (and of course Dmitri's tattoo parlor), can probably be edited, too, since no one has mentioned them yet, so if you were to decide that you wanted to take over any of those, you would be able to make them more to your liking at current. :-)

    ~Grins~ thank you Haru and Elf for all of the extra help.  I'll most likely set up two characters. 

    I'll take a look at the woman in Dmitri's past and see what I think and can come up with but I'll PM you with the idea's  before presenting them for the general public. 

    As for the Business I was thinking about for one of my characters it would be an Occult store specializing in pagan goods and books.  If that is something that would be welcome to bring into the game.

    Haven't really put a lot of thought towards like plots or plans for her. I've had a bit of a personality in mind and a general idea. Ideally I'd like for a romantic relationship to form.

    That is very interesting. We had one such character in the first attempt and it looked things were working towards some interesting times with Dmitri. This time though it looks like there are other things developing for him. I would be more than willing to explore things and see just where the story leads him, though.

    Going to try to work on a sheet later tonight, and see what all sort of interest I get.

    Biography

       Vivienne hails from a small town in Alabama, her mother had her in pageants from the time she was five years old and she enjoyed them, that's where she became competetive. Second place was never good enough, not for her and certainly not for her mother. It'd been almost crystal clear, from the time she was 9, that perfection was what was expected of her. That caused her to become very anxious and a little high strung which led to her mother giving the young girl Xanax. That resulted in a lifetime addiction to anti-anxiety medication.
       She moved to Birmingham as soon as she turned 18 and caught the eye of a producer that was in town scouting talent for an upcoming horror movie. It wasn't long until she was the talk of the whole horror scene. Her first movie had been a mix between a slasher flick and a psychological thriller, she portrayed the kidnapping victim of a sadistic killer. He'd forced her character to partake in his sinister hobbies and it had ended with her finally getting her revenge by slitting his throat. It was an extremely graphic movie, both violence-wise and sexually. Her parents were not thrilled. Vivienne found that she extremely enjoyed the attention and the slight notoriety, bordering on infamy, of being the new 'scream queen'. The new avenues that her newfound fame opened had seemed amazing, the 19 year old had access to as many drugs and parties as she wanted. After five or six movies, she ended up in rehab and stayed there for a few months.
       After leaving rehab, she started trying to do more serious films and that worked out pretty well for her. Was even nominated for an Oscar, but sadly, she lost. The brunette always seemed to go back to her movie roots. That was her life for 18 years and she loved every minute of it. The past two years she hadn't acted much, just bit parts in tv shows and appearances at Comic-Con type events. The last movie she'd done had kind of bordered on softcore BDSM porn with a plot. Her life had slowed down considerably, she had cut out every other drug but Xanax, Klonopin, and Ambien. Vivienne divided her time between Birmingham, Los Angeles, New York, and London but had decided to sell her homes in Birmingham and Los Angeles. She'd been looking for somewhere to settle down and had heard about a neighborhood in Chicago that sounded like just what she was looking for. Romantic relationships haven't always come easy for her, random one nighters and whatnot..yeah, actual relationships..not so much. Most women she'd been interested in hadn't been able to handle her erratic schedule but now she was a little more settled.

    You took my sadness out of context
    At the Mariner's apartment complex
    I ain't no candle in the wind
    I'm the bolt, the lightning, the thunder
    Kind of girl who's gonna make you wonder
    Who you are and who you been.

    I actually like the fact that it is not on the character sheet. It's not like people just know such things. ;)

    So in the few months that D has been there and the many times he has visited Kat in the building with two bedrooms I'm sure they have crossed paths some at least. He is not always an outrageous flirt, usually very friendly though. Actually if the only time they have met is when he was with or going to visit Kat he probably didn't flirt at all.

    Understandable, and even with knowing it now D would not know and would not ask. Well he might ask if they get into a situation of mutual attraction and she then informed him of being born a male. All things considered though he would likely just take that information in stride and then be pleasantly surprised when they got naked.

    That's why I never put sexual likes/dislikes on a character sheet. I don't consider this very important information (and I rarely can tell that from the beginning. I need to write a character for a while, to figure out such things). IF it becomes relevant, I'll see what my characters tells me. I even considered leaving out Alejándro's sexual preference, because it is, in the end, irrelevant unless a story goes a certain direction. But, since he is a celebrity, people would know about it, more than likely.

    I'm of the similar mindset.

    From my own personal experience, it seems like I never get involved in sexual scenes in groups, unless it's like a significant and central part of the whole setting and premise.

    I actually like that.  You do have a point.  I'm tempted to go back and change it once again.  But I think I might just leave it with the edit, just in the interest of fairness and as a general disclaimer.

    Eh, I don't plan such things. Things happen or they don't, but I never plot a sexual encounter. I like it a lot more if it happens, you know? When a story goes that direction all on it's own. ~nodnod~

    A spot or two is open for you if you do decide to rejoin. :-) I think all the 'veterans' would be happy to have you back. I thought about PMing you, but I feel weird 'spamming' someone unless I know them well enough.


    I'ma copy the list Elf made earlier and put it in the first post, so that newcomers have a quick ref. Probably not gonna do anything like that for the character thread. I'd rather people look at the actual profiles.

    Biography

    Born on Long Island, New York, the daughter of an Irish playwright and a minor Puerto Rican telenovela star, Leash has been dancing since she was three- it's been her whole life for most of that time. Like most little princesses, she started in ballet; got bored with it because it was too 'girly', tried rhythmic gymnastics for a while, and finally found her niche in very athletic jazz and modern dance. Her parents tried feebly for a bit to get her to go into a more mainstream field, but they were hardly the best role models for 'respectable' careers. So, once it was clear Aleasha had a calling, they threw their full support and the power of what network they had in the arts community behind their daughter's dreams.

    A graduate of Juilliard and a former Jacob's Pillow fellow, Leash has gained a small amount of fame and face recognition from her appearances as a featured dancer in a few hip-hop music videos (she says she enjoyed the dancing, hated the music, and loved the paychecks).  She's come to Chicago to join a newly-formed jazz dance ensemble called Giant Steps; she's one of three girls in the corps, dancing with three guys in ensemble pieces and as backup for headliner feature dancers.

    Leash is also into watercolor painting- which she's not very good at- and body paint/makeup, which she's half-decent with.


    Relationships

    Friends: She's a newcomer to Chi-town, so she really doesn't know anyone outside of the dance company, yet. She has a younger sister, China, she's skin-tight with, but Chai is a U. Penn student, so they don't see much of each other at the moment.

    Enemies: None, so far.

    Biography

    There are two key events in Kymbr’s life which are pertinent to the story.
    1st.   One a Saturday evening not long after moving into the neighborhood Kymbr was walking back from the movies when three members of the local gang surrounded her wanting her to come with them.  Another boy (Dmitri whom she had seen in school but did not know his name until the events of that night aired later that week in the local news) stepped in and came to her rescue. 
    But things grew extremely ugly when the gang members drew weapons and the violence began.  Dmitri was stalked by two of the boys while the other one came and grabbed onto both of her arms to keep her from leaving.  However the boy had not seen that Kymbr had drawn a knife of her own that she used to cut a deep gash in his arm.  Screaming in pain and partially in shock momentarily let go of her allowing her to flee the scene and to call the police from her cell phone in the safety of a local market down the street.  She truly regretted just running away like that but at the time she saw no other option.
    Through the news reports she learned that Dmitri and the three other boys had gone to the hospital where one of the boys had died from his injuries.  Her father had prevented her from testifying in the trial by taking his family and moving back out of the neighborhood.  This did not prevent her however from finding out that Dmitri and been convicted and sent to jail for killing one of the boys.  The fact that all of that happened to him just because he stepped in to save her has haunted her for the last 20 years of her life. 

    2nd. For her 35th birthday she and her parents drove into San Francisco Ca. from Santa Cruz Ca. where they had been living for almost 18 years.  They had gone up to hear the San Francisco Symphony play and to have a picnic in Golden Gate Park.  The roads were extremely fogging on the return trip driving down Pacific Coast Hwy.  Their car was hit head on by a drunk driver.  The impact killing both of her parents and left her in the hospital for a couple of weeks undergoing knee surgery. 
    A year later with all of her parents affairs settled Kymbr decided it was time for a change.  A big change that involved trying to find the boy who she knew for a fact had saved her life 20 years before and try to apologize for not coming to his aid when he needed her most.

    Got to say I like Kymbr. It should prove to be very interesting with her moving into the apartment directly below Dmitri's. She was pretty at 15 but like wine has only gotten better with age. Inking her won't be the first thing on his mind, but what a canvas to work on. OMG!

    I also very much like Aleasha, that purple hair on the lovely girl moving in across the hall from D will definitely catch his eye. Is definitely going to want to ink her.

    Nowherewoman

    I'd be into it, and so would she- but it'd have to be discreet, not the full-body work he has. I suspect her hair is pushing the envelope, professionally, as it is.
    Instead of obsessing on the person you want to be, focus on who you DON'T want to be. It's much easier to not do certain things than to break your head on some ideal of yourself.

    When the dust settles, you may find out you've become who you were supposed to be all along.

    He is kind of expected to have full body work considering what he does, but all that work has taken years to get in place. They would definitely want to start small and in a place she could hide it.

    Yeah, that's the danger of using an SG for an avatar. Leash doesn't actually have that.  She really can't have anything that would show while she was wearing a leotard, or sports top and tights. So we're talking shoulderblade, maybe an underboob piece, butt, inner thigh. No tramp stamp/lower back, no sleeves ( :( ), no hands or face or neck.

    Same here, pretty much. Alejàndro just arrived in the area, though, so I doubt that there would be any closer connections, yet. But, my PM box is always open for ideas (I just do not plot flirting, romance, etc. This either happens or it doesn't.) I also do not care about the other characters sexual orientation.

    Well yes, I was asking if NPC's would be fine, since he already would have a personal trainer/nutritionist. Can't be just anyone, after all. ~chuckles~ Would probably be someone from his entourage. :P His agent, Diego, would make use of the personal trainer as well.

    On the other hand - hiring someone new could be a good plot hook.

    Bibliophilia


    Danielle "Dani" Justice

    Basics

    Nicknames: Dani, Flash, Drops
    Sex: Gender Queer/Non-binary (Physically female)
    Age: 26
    Birthday: February 3rd, 1991
    Race/Ethnicity: Caucasian
    Sexual Orientation: Omnisexual
    Occupation: Photographer
    Residence: The Kensington - Room 2505


    Appearance

    Hair Color: Dark Brown
    Eye Color: Blue
    Height: 5'7"
    Distinguishing Marks: Multiple tattoos and ear piercings, and tongue piercing.
    Other Details:


    Personality

    Traits:
    Laid-Back - Dani hardly ever takes anything seriously, and never lets things stress her out.
    Charismatic - The girl's got charm pouring out of her ears, and she doesn't have to try for it, it's just natural.
    Confident - Dani doesn't give a shit what anyone thinks, she knows who she is and she likes herself.
    Generous - If she's got it and someone needs it, she has no problem giving it away.  Whatever 'it' might be.
    Empathetic - Growing up different has made her quite good at putting herself in other people's shoes, and feeling what they feel.
    Intelligent - She may not understand theoretical physics, but she's whip smart and asks the right questions, which makes her good at learning about things she doesn't understand and swiftly picking up that which she learns.
    Unguarded - Dani doesn't hold anything of herself back from the people she trusts.  She's completely honest about herself, and open with her life, unashamed.
    Slow to Anger - It takes a lot to push Dani's buttons, and most of the things that might anger other people just roll off her back.  Insults directed at her will typically be met with a laugh, or an agreement.  However, she will step to defend others without hesitation and preying on the weak and defenseless is the quickest way to get her angry.
    Not Averse to Violence - When Dani gets angry, she tries to handle things reasonably, but she's not opposed to stepping in and using her fists, or any other part of her body, to get her point across.  She enjoys the physicality of a bare-knuckle brawl, and it shows.
    A Little Crazy - That taste for violence, her unconventional methods of communicating her emotions at times, and her seeming lack of self-interest or fear when it comes to defending perfect strangers against those who would harm them, all indicate a slight insanity on her part.  She likes to think it adds to her charm, which might be true until you see her standing on top of a car driving sixty miles an hour on a dirt road, with her arms stretched out at her sides and a huge grin on her face.  Then?  Well, then she just seems to be taunting death.
    Messy - She hates to clean.  Depending on when the maid's last been in, a trip to her apartment will reveal clothes strewn about, dishes in the sink, crumpled papers on the floor and crumbs on the coffee table.  She's messy, but she's not filthy, so there's no old food around or anything.

    Biography

    Dani was seven years old when she told her parents she wanted to be a boy.  Her parents decided that she was suffering from some sort of trauma as a result of being an only child, and sent her to a child psychologist.  The psychologist saw her three times a week, an hour a session, at $200/hour.  He pretended to listen if Dani talked, but she figured out pretty quickly that he wasn't paying attention to her and didn't give a damn about what she was going through.  He was perfectly happy if she sat there for an hour and said nothing, or napped, or spent her time coloring at the table in the middle of the room.  So, that's what she did.

    She stopped expressing her desire to be a boy, and her parents assumed that meant the therapy was working.  They congratulated themselves for navigating such a tricky parental hurdle with aplomb, and rewarded themselves with a month-long trip to Monte Carlo, leaving their daughter behind in the care of her nanny.  Julia, Dani's nanny, was far more understanding of the girl's situation and she became Dani's confidant.  It was Julia who helped Dani understand that there was nothing wrong with her, that a lot of people don't fit into the boxes that society has set up for its self, and that she shouldn't feel bad because she wasn't one or the other.  Julia helped Dani to explore the non-binary truth about herself, and explained to her that keeping the truth to herself wasn't about shame, but about protection.  She had to keep it a secret until she could protect herself from other people's ignorance, but once she could do that, then she would never have to hide it again.

    When Dani was seventeen, she fell in love with a girl at her exclusive private school.  She invited her over for a sleep-over, and over the course of the night, she lost her virginity and gained a girlfriend.  She knew that the other girl wasn't like her, but it didn't matter to her.  Rebecca was beautiful, smart, and she didn't give a damn what anyone else thought about her.  She gave Dani the confidence to finally be honest about herself for the first time since her parents had sent her to see the psychologist.  It felt good, and even Dani's parents couldn't frighten her or force her to hide again.  So, her father kicked her out and cut her off.

    Dani ended up moving in with Julia, who hadn't worked for the family for about three years, once Dani's parents had decided she was too old to need a nanny.  Julia was happy to take her in, and Dani finished out the school year at her private school, since it had already been paid for.  Her parents didn't attend her graduation, or see her kiss Rebecca after she accepted her degree.  They had completely cut her out of their lives, and Dani couldn't tell much of a difference.  Her parents had never spent much time with her anyhow, and she was much happier living with Julia.  The only difficulty came from the drastic difference in means, which required Dani to get a job if she wanted to attend college.  She'd gotten a partial scholarship, but she took a job working on cars to make up the difference.

    She'd spent a lot of time in her parent's impressive garage, watching their chauffeur maintain their fleet of vehicles.  Eventually, she'd begun helping him, learning from him and acquiring a bankable skill that would have seemed useless to her parents.  But, after they cut her off, that skill came in very handy.  She worked at the garage for four years, putting herself through art school and getting her degree in photography, which led to launching her career taking pictures of cars, then people.  Now, she works as a fashion photographer and artist, the commercial work funding her luxurious lifestyle along with the fairly brisk sales of her artwork.  Julia lives in a small house bought by Dani, and she gets regular phone calls and visits from the girl who considers her to be her mother.


    Relationships: None so far, aside from Julia Tanner, her surrogate mother.

    Friends: Dani just moved to town and hasn't had a chance to make friends, yet.

    Enemies: None that she's aware of, yet.

    Additional Details

    Dani is gender-queer, which means she doesn't ascribe to the gender binary of male or female.  She swaps pronouns freely when speaking about herself, and typically binds her breasts and wears a strap-on under her pants, though not always.  Dani considers herself largely gender neutral with a strong masculine leaning, and she's fine with any pronouns one is most comfortable using with her.

    Instead of obsessing on the person you want to be, focus on who you DON'T want to be. It's much easier to not do certain things than to break your head on some ideal of yourself.

    When the dust settles, you may find out you've become who you were supposed to be all along.

    Biography

    Libby's mother suffered unexpected complications during the birth of her first, and only, daughter, which resulted in her death and left the newborn to be raised by former rock star of mediocre fame, Robert Shane.  Robert had risen to mild notoriety in the eighties, but his band 'Broken Sundays' only had one song that reached the charts and it hovered near the bottom, dropping steadily for three weeks before falling off entirely.  'Running Blind', their one hit song, was forgotten in a year and the band ended up breaking apart after struggling for another three years to regain what little recognition they'd once had.  Later in life, Robert admitted that a combination of middling talent and a taste for the rock and roll lifestyle was the cause of their pitiful attempt to make it big.

    Luckily for Robert, he met his wife Elisabeth on their final, pathetic tour and the two fell deeply in love.  She helped him get sober and find a life off stage, making him realize that he made a much better sound engineer than musician.  The two spent years traveling with different bands, and Robert discovered that he was much more in demand as an engineer than he'd ever been when he had held a guitar.  They took a break when Elisabeth got pregnant and settled in Chicago, in Robert's parent's place, which had been left to him in his mother's will.  Everything seemed wonderful, until the night Libby was born and Elisabeth died.

    Robert grieved hard for his wife, but he adored his daughter and considered her the most precious thing in his life.  He got a job at a recording studio, and stopped touring with bands until Libby was old enough to travel with him.  Every summer, while she was out of school, he took three months off work and they hooked up with a band for their summer tour, which fostered in Libby a gypsy spirit.  She adored traveling, meeting new people and seeing new cities, new wonders on the road.  Of course, Libby got older and began finding even more things to enjoy about touring with rock bands, namely the members of the band and attractive members of the audience.

    Libby was a beautiful girl and she attracted a lot of interest, which Robert wasn't exactly pleased about.  She was always going to be his little girl, and catching her making out with guys five or ten years older than her didn't sit well with him at all.  So, their relationship became strained and eventually it exploded when, at seventeen, Libby announced she was dropping out of high school and moving in with a woman named Charity West, the lead singer of an all-female rock band called 'Demeter's Sorrow'.  Charity was nearly thirty, but Robert couldn't convince Libby to change her mind, the girl was madly in love with Charity and refused to believe that age or anything else could make a difference.

    Things were wonderful between Libby and Charity for a while, but then Charity began to lose her temper with the girl, started calling her names and eventually progressed to hitting her when they fought.  Libby told herself it was stress, or that Charity only hurt her when she was drunk.  She made a million excuses for her lover, because she loved her, and when things were good, it felt like magic.  Then one night, after a show, she walked in on Charity in her trailer with a couple of groupies, screwing them in the same bed that she and Libby shared when the band was on tour.  The fight was enormous, the groupies slipping out as the trailer filled with screams and accusations, then it all stopped when Charity decided to let her fists do the talking.  An hour later, Libby was dropped off outside of an ER with a broken cheekbone, internal bleeding and a couple of fractured ribs, not to mention numerous bruises and contusions from the beating she'd taken.

    When she finally woke after surgery, it was to discover her father sitting beside her hospital bed and to learn that 'Demeter's Sorrow' had moved on to the next town without her.  Charity had abandoned her and left her for dead.  Robert wanted her to press charges, but Libby refused, her emotions over the situation incredibly conflicted.  Part of her was relieved to be free, to be alive, and to no longer be subject to the pain of Charity's abuse, but the other part of her still loved the woman, longed for her and hurt deeply over her betrayal and abandonment.  Robert asked Libby to move back in with him after she was released from the hospital and she did, recovering under his attentive care and even managing to get her G.E.D.  But, after a year she couldn't stay, needed to get out on her own and stop depending on others.

    She moved for a time to California to try her hand at acting, but soon discovered the hell of auditions, callbacks and being just another pretty face among dozens, if not hundreds.  She started posing as a model for an art class to support herself, then began posing for other artists, and eventually for pornographic magazines.  She enjoyed the attention and she had the perfect look for such work, a combination of sweet and sexy, with a bit of an edge.  From there, it was an easy jump to cam-girl, with a little help from a good friend who was in the business.  Now, she's moved back to Chicago, to Indigo Way, and has just taken up residence in Parker Commons.


    Relationships: None, yet.

    Friends: None, unless you count her many fans.

    Enemies: Some other cam-girls aren't very friendly with her, but none aside from them.
