Topic: Cruel Harvest [Ex]

[Plot Hooks]

People don't go to Old Merry Farm for a reason.    It's out of the way,  the family that owns it is cranky,  and it's rumored by the kids to be haunted by the ghosts of people murdered there in the sixties.    Things go awry when a group of youngsters (teenage to collage-agers) decide to debunk the myth on a dare.    Will anyone at all survive the night of murder and mayhem, or will they simply add to the horrific legend?

This game would explicitly involve murder and ultra-violence.  Players should know up front that their character will are likely be killed off in a gruesome way.    Fear not though,  death may not be the end of your character.  If it needs to be said, this will be an explicitly grim and gruesome rp.

I will serve as the DM, and while it will technically be a system RP,  players only need provide a thorough description of the character and most all the mechanics will be run safely under the table.   For those that care to know,  I'll be using M&M2e,  but you don't need to know (or learn) any of it to play.   

I will keep this limited to 4 players at a time,  and will try and keep it mixed up well (ie.  Not a first come, first served senerio.).  The game ends when everyone is dead, or has made it to safety.

Sorry for my brevity; I'm working from a phone.

D.A.:   Pitch me a character then!
Linna:  I like it,  but I'd like to ask a few questions...

1.) What's her home-life like?
2.) Is she involved in any extra-circular activities?
3.) introvert or extrovert?

Everyone:   I neglected to mention that players will be allowed to peek at the mechanics if they so desire.   It will be kept on a separate thread though.

[GloomCookie]

1) Both her parents are perhaps best described as hippies.  She has two older brothers and a younger sister.  Her brothers are all gone off to their own careers, but her younger sister is still in high school and is about as spoiled as a shipping container full of ripe fruit in the summer sun.  She stays in an apartment with another girl, working as a radio talk personality on the weekends at the local station.
2) She spends her time outside of class and work playing baseball, going bowling, and watching movies at the local cinema.
3) Ambivert.

Right on!   This makes you the first player.   We'll see who else shows.   

[Acid Lips]

Name: Sakura Laruna
Age: 20
Gender: Female
Personality: She is serous when needed to be, otherwise she is a joker she likes to have fun and make jokes and pranks. She is known to be a loyal friend that besides her unusual personality she is a tomb of secrets and will never let any of them out.
Skills: She loves music and singing, she has a amazing voice and has a rock band.
Bio: She was born in Japan, ever since little she had been fooling around and making fun of people. Tragedy struck one night though, she was involved in a crash with a drunk driver her big sister getting killed in the process. She feels is her fault and keeps it hidden away on her heart not letting it out. After the accident she move to the states to forget and restart a new life. She went back to her old ways thinking that was what her sister would had wanted, however she now has a new view on life, it is too precious to waste it. She enrolled in school and now is one of the top student in the class while still being the Joker of the classroom.

Due to her past she developed a fear of blood. The sight of too much blood make her remember how her sister died and she goes into a panic attack each time she sees a lot of blood even in movies. Reason why she almost always go into comedy movies and not into horror, she is not a big fan of scary stuff thinking that somehow she would be responsible for more deaths.

Al:   Welcome to E!

A couple of questions...

1.) What is Sakura's major?   
2.) what are her hobbies/extra ciricular activities?
3.) What's the rockband's name, and who are the other members?

AD:  Great profile!   Why is Tif's relationship with her parents strained?

[abandoneddolly]

Its strained  because  before she left for college she git into a bit of trouble with the law for stealing somethings, as soon as it was cleared up she took off to school. The parents feel like they lost their innocent little girl and being so far away from her they don't know much about what she is doing and she don't tell them much. So they picture her getting into a lot more trouble.
