RPG
Introduction
Living a life of lies, hidden under a mask...
A gifted circus. No, not a circus of those with extraordinary ordinary talents, but a circus and a zoo of those with supernatural abilities. They are considered freaks, not even human beings to the regular populace.
Di Morte.
Even the name brings shivers down one's spine, a name that encourages and fosters the inner voice dwelling in everybody's head. Go....look at them...mock them for what they really are...look. See how ashamed they are? They hide behind masks...
Founded in 1959 by an Italian man, gifted with the ability of charm, capable of winning so many to his side, when he came to America and discovered the treasure trove of all the young children, confused and lost by their abilities. They had no idea why they were doing such things. Why they seemed to be able to walk through things. Why their bones never broke, no matter what they did to them. Why, in some more extreme cases, were they capable of flying and all their playmates weren't.
The Italian, who called himself the Ringmaster, began collecting them.
He forced them to wear masks, implanting an idea in their heads that their identities had to be kept secret. If word got out what their real names were, the police and the authorities would come and take them away, lock them up forever. They didn't want that.
Each mask was custom made for each child. Each mask held a special meaning to the child. It alluded to the child's ability, or the child's personality or just the child's own desire.
The Ringmaster began teaching them how to perform. Those with the flashiest abilities would be given acts, while those with more mild, modest abilities were put on exhibit in the traveling zoo that went with the circus.
Soon, Di Morte became infamous.
The original Ringmaster treated them well. He considered himself one of them, because of his gift. All his performers, and even those in the zoo, were kept clean and well-fed, content with their lot.
But then, he died.
His son took over. He shed his old name, taking on the name of his father. The Ringmaster.
There are still some that remember the kindness of the previous Ringmaster, but he no longer lives. The new Ringmaster demands much. There are rumors surrounding the reasons why. Perhaps it's because he's not gifted and he's just jealous of his father's collection. But there are other rumors as well...rumors of a darker secret plaguing the Ringmaster's mind. But who dares find out?
In his presence, all are required to don their masks, which therefore means the performers and the exhibits must carry said mask with them at all times.
there will always be just a little bit of trouble....
Strange things have started to occur. Strange figures, passing along secret messages under the cover of darkness, hidden by the shadows, pressed against the walls of the tents.
But Di Morte is always on the move. One week in one place, one week in another, a third week for just a little bit of rest before they go back on the road. Life is demanding, but it is always worth it.
Happiness never lasts.
Amongst the members of Di Morte, there will always be insecurities. Always will there be secrets nobody else wants anybody else to know. Romances blossom. Friendships are forms. Hatred digs its dark claws deep into people's souls, corrupting the bond that could have been formed. All in a day's work at Di Morte.
Yet, behind the scenes, behind the flashy masks and the mysterious smiles, in the darkness of night, among the dead, there is a threat. A threat that comes, as they will soon find out, in a form of the least expected.
To prove you read this, send me a PM with the word 'capricious' in it.

Rules
1. No god-moding or power-playing.
2. There is a limit to the number of gifts you can have. A limit of two (2) in fact. And if the gift that you have in mind for your character is an element, then that gift counts for all two (2). Shape-shifting counts as two as well. As for shape-shifters, nobody can transform into anything. There must be a limit. And no dragons, unicorns, etc.
3. On the subject of elements, I'd like to keep the number of elemental users low. Like...I'll accept two (2). Because I want to encourage your creativeness. Think of something other than elements. Elements are boring. Think of things like...the ability to talk to bananas or something.
4. Remember to interact. Don't have your character sit in a corner and wait for somebody else to initiate conversations.
5. On that note, don't make your character depressed, shallow, self-loathing or withdrawn. Because that does not make for a fun role play. I will accept creative, unique and interesting characters.
6. Don't complain if I don't accept your character.
7. To prove you have read everything, don't actually send me a PM with any word in it. Unless it's a question. In that case, feel free to send me a PM.
8. I choose whether or not you are a performer or an exhibit, simply because not everybody can be a performer. However, you may apply to be either and it will be up to me whether or not I grant it.
9. 3 characters max per person. 2 main characters and a secondary character. Just so it doesn't get too crowded.
10. Make sure to check the OOC thread often. Updates and answers to FAQ's will be answered there.

In my mind, I have already flown to the heavens. I need not actually fly there to be happy. For it is here that I am content.

Does it frighten you when your voice slips from my mouth? Have I stolen your words? I think so...

OOC Notes
His mornings always began the same way. Five o'clock sharp, Lucio di Morte swung his feet out of bed. He shrugged his lean, slender body into a black dress shirt, black shirttailed jacket, dark slacks and dark shoes. He finished tying his satin white tie at 5:10.
Mornings always began early at Di Morte. Especially on the morning of a performance.
"Ringmaster...." He tested the name again, smirking as he slipped on the white half mask. He pulled back his dark hair into a ponytail at the base of his neck, tying it off with a blood red ribbon. He took his cane, which leaned against the wall, and headed out of the cabin onto the campgrounds.
--x--
Sawyer Jacobs shifted in his sleep, before something heavy crashed into his side. He jolted up, staring in bright panic at the fox spirit that sat, rather smug, on his stomach.
"Elora...." he moaned, falling back onto his cot.
"Get up," the fox spirit commanded. "Ringmaster approaches."
Sawyer scrambled for his mask, tugging it over his head just as Ringmaster turned the corner. His real name...Sawyer didn't know his real name. None of the circus members did.
"Good morning, Fox," Ringmaster's voice was smooth, polite as he stopped by Sawyer's room. Sawyer nodded, the back of his throat suddenly dry..

OOC Notes
Lark's eyes slid open, settling on the cage bars. The sun was barely starting to come up. He sighed.
It was time to begin.
He slipped his feathered mask on, giving a trilling bird-call to wake the others. The Ringmaster would be around to inspect any minute.

OOC Notes
Adele's amber eyes flickered open as she heard Larks shrill call. Pulling the blanket back she sat up and pulled her blue mask over her face. Rising from the bed she pulled out a small comb and began brushing her long chocolate brown hair. Her eyes turned down, she could "taste" the Ringmaster, a faint taste that always seemed to be at the back of her throat, perhaps because he had such an unusual "taste" positive and negative, very unusual. Her hair flowed down over her shoulders and she pulled the sheet up over her bed in order to make it look neat for the Ringmaters inspection.
OOC Notes
Lark had no prepping to do. He simply uncurled, stepping out of the nest-like structure that he was given as a bed. He ran his fingers through his auburn hair a few times, straightening the feathery outfit built to make him look even more like a little girl. And then he moved to kneel in front of his bars, peering down the halls, waiting.
OOC Notes
The Ringmaster headed down the hall, smirking to himself. He paused at Lark's cage. "Hello, Lark," he murmured, not even turning to look at the boy. "Did you sleep well?"
Sawyer, relieved, stepped out of his room, Elora trotting by his side - not that anybody else could see.
"That was rather more stressful than usual," the fox noted as Sawyer headed towards the cafeteria. His stomach rumbled.
"He scares me," Sawyer admitted with a soft voice. He pulled off his mask. "Something...about him...."

"Yes, Ringmaster," Lark whispered, ducking his head to the man. He found himself shivering in fear.

“No way…how absurd.” Confucia, quite perplexed, poked at the apple before her. Worms ate this stuff did they not? Not that it mattered, worms were decomposers, like bacteria, bacteria grew sometimes on cheese didn’t it? Oh wait no that was fungus. Actually cheese was fungus. Like blue cheese. “I don’t think I enjoy blue cheese, it isn’t even entirely blue…”
Confucia’s comment seemed out of the blue, heh, blue. Back to the point! One moment she was commenting on how absurd the apple was, and now she spoke of blue cheese, she was not aware that the comment seemed strange, but a curtain other individual was acutely aware, and he cocked an eyebrow at her from across the bench. His name was Kohn.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
“Well that in front of you missy, so happens to be an apple, that which we humans consume. So consume it and quit complaining, you haven’t eaten in a day or so if I’m not mistaken.” Kohn dug back into his cereal, eyeing his friend with the blank mask. Why did he have to be the sensible one? If it weren’t for him this idiot would have starved by now probably, and Lark would have gotten hit on by numerous unsuspecting guys, and August would have said something offensive and gotten into trouble, and a thousand other things… He sighed.
“Do I need to shove that apple in your damn mouth? Or are you going to eat?” It didn’t make sense; he loved food, why would anyone not love food?
“Hello fox.” He nodded in Fox’s general direction as he entered.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
“Well, I don’t think my mask allows for food shoving…” Confucia tapped her mask were her mouth should be, this was not good. Her mask was ok during work hours, but it was proving to be so inconvenient lately. She didn’t like being seen as nothing. Waving to Sawyer she tossed the apple into that air and it started to circle her head in a planetary fashion.
“I don’t think my apple can find an opening…”

"Take off the mask," Sawyer suggested. "Ringmaster's with Lark anyway. You know how he gets...." Sawyer's eyes darkened slightly. Lark. Would the boy be alright?
Their Ringmaster had a certain habit of.....well.....
Not being very gentle with the feminine male.
--x--
"Are you cold?" Ringmaster's voice slid across the room, as he crossed over to where the boy knelt. He put a hand in Lark's hair, lifting the boy so that Lark was standing.

Lark whimpered in pain and fear, rising with the Ringmaster's hand. He squeezed his eyes shut, and his shivering intensified.
OOC Notes
Ringmaster's eyes flashed before he tossed Lark back into the nest. "Get up," he growled, cane hitting one of the bars that surrounded Lark's cage. "It's time for breakfast."
He disappeared out the door, heading down the hall.
Where others still had yet to be inspected.
Insolence and messiness were not to be tolerated. Especially not on a show day.

Lark hit the ground hard, and lay there for a moment, arms over his head as he shuddered in relief. The man was gone. There would be no beating. Not this morning.
He couldn't bring himself to stand. His legs would not hold him.
______________________________________
Glow strutted around one of the cages, watching the creatures within as they quivered. They knew it as well as she did. The Ringmaster was approaching.

"Well I don't like it on, soooo." Coni slipped the mask off and set it on the wood in front of her, the apple set itself back on the table and she decidedly picked it up to take a bite. "Hey Sawyer, do you think a worm will pop out when I take a bite, maybe it'll talk?!" She laughed a light tinkling laugh and took a small bite, lo and behold, no worm, but it tasted just fine to her after all, not like blue cheese or something unpleasant.
--------------------------------------------
Kohn froze after Sawyer spoke, "He's with....fuckin." Kohn let his spoon clatter on his dish as he forced himself up. This was a recuring problem, the new Ringmaster was rather cruel, and Kohn tried as much as he could to redirect said cruelty as much as he could. He dearly missed the old ringmaster now more than ever.
He took off at a jog out of the cafeteria and passed said cruel ringmaster without even looking at him, pretending not to notice. He didn't stop until he came to Lark's cage. "Yo...hey you ok?" Kohn bent down, offering a hand to help him up, releaved to see no new bruises.
---------------------------------------------------------
"Oh dear, that makes for a poor way to start a day." Coni frowned, putting the apple down, suddenly her appetite was gone. "I hope Lark's ok, wish I could do something." She tapped her blank mask, she hated this damn thing.

Sawyer watched Kohn leave, shaking his head slowly. "At least he's wearing his mask," he said with a small smile at Coni. He sat down next to her, picking up another apple from the fruit basket. He offered the fruit to Elora, who jumped up onto the bench next to him.
To everybody else, it looked like he was offering it to empty space.
The fox shook her head, curling up and laying her muzzle on her paws. Her intelligent eyes stared up at Sawyer, as the male reached down and put his own mask on the table. He studied the mask, before taking a thoughtful bite from the apple.
"Wish worms could talk," he responded to Coni's earlier statement. "Would make life a lot more fun."
"Because you don't have company enough?" Elora snorted.
"Shut up, El," Sawyer shot a dark look at thefox empty space next to him.
--x--
Kohn ran by him. For a brief moment, the Ringmaster frowned, before he shrugged. Let them do as they pleased. He would be back later. This was his circus. These were his people. They would not get away with doing whatever they wanted for long.
His father had been too lenient on them.
"Glow," his voice held a note of affection. But was it affection? Did he feel affection?

OOC Notes
Lark stirred slightly, sitting up and reaching for Kohn. He whimpered slightly.
Why did the Ringmaster pick on him so much?
Probably because he reacted so well.

Glow smiled at the sight of the Ringmaster, reaching out and slipping her lush arms around his neck.
"My lord," She breathed.

"Damnit Lark, don't be such a ninny to him." Kohn said angrily, though he was more angry that the ringmaster was picking on one of his people. Kohn pretty much hoisted Lark up, "You're a guy for pete's sake, grow a pair. If for you're own good if nothing else." Kohn's concern would be heard in his voice now. "Never had to do this shit whith the old master....c'mon, let's go eat, show day today. Maybe you can help me play the never ending game of getting Coni to eat, last I saw she had apple's levitating around her head." He chuckled a bit, trying to get Lark to smile.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"You're the one that said I should take it off! Off like a plane." She twirled her fingers, causing the mask to do a flip. She watched with glee as Sawyer spoke to Elora. "And is miss Elora this fine morning, still fabulous?" She smirked, snapping her fingers and causing a flower to pop out of the ground. She picked it up and waved it around. "Lack a day, for the elsutrious must grace us with her presence!" Confucia was trying to coax Elora out, she liked her, quite the curious person she was. Especially becasue she kept sawyer company so much.
"Oooo, look who's still alive." She winked over at Lark as he and Kohn filed in.

"Tell her I don't feel like it," Elora told Sawyer.
"No, that's rude El," Sawyer sighed. "She's not in the mood today," he glanced apologetically at Coni. 'Thank God I'm not scheduled to perform....'
Elora got on her hind paws, sniffing at the table. Sure, she was a fox spirit. But she still liked to eat. She grabbed a scone. And all any other person could see would be the scone disappearing into thin air.
Sawyer looked up at Lark. "Hey~" he greeted the boy. He swept a critical eye over him. "You alright?"
--x--
The Ringmaster smirked, unlocking Glow's cage as he pressed his lips to the inside crease of her arm. "Step out into the sunshine, my dear," he murmured. "It's hard to see you in the dark. And today is performance day~" He laughed a little, a somewhat...strange laugh.

Lark gave them a tentative smile.
"I'm fine," He whispered, flushing, dismayed that they were all so worried about him.

Glow stepped out of the cage, letting her long, bare leg brush against him as she moved. The sunlight hit her, and seemed to shatter, intensifying into a halo of brilliance.

OOC Notes
Coni's lips pursed into a pout, awe, Elora wouldn't come out, and Lark was...being un-Lark like. "Smile." She said softly to the bird singer, "While you still can..." She gave him a knowing look, as if to say, 'things are going to get so much worse'. But of course, how would she know that? Besides, that wasn't what she meant, and it became evident what she meant as she slipped on her mask, once more hiding her expressive face.
The flower she held slowly fell back into the ground from wence it came, it, much like most things, was not permanent.
----------------------------------------
"If you aren't performing, mind keeping an eye on everyone while I'm up?" Kohn and his Lion tamer act were up today, if he was performing then he couldn't watch over everyone. Who the hell gave him that job anyway? What a pain.

OOC Notes
Mirella, or Milly as she asked people to call her, watched the Ringmaster and Glow's interaction from a good distance so that she wouldn't be noticed by Glow. She created a red rose in full bloom to give him later as she did every day.
She could wait. Wait until the ringmaster was by himself.

OOC Notes
Lark gave Coni a tentative smile. A ghost of his usual smile. But it was a smile.
OOC Notes
Sawyer clapped Lark on the back. "Cheer up," he said with an easy grin himself. "He's not here yet. Glow's not here yet. We've got all this food. And it's performance day. He can't do anything back on performance day."
"That's right....believe him," Elora curled up around Lark, despite the fact that she knew he couldn't feel or see her.
--x--
He smirked at Glow. "Go eat," he murmured. "Today's a big day."
He turned abruptly, heading down the hall again.
He stopped outside Milly's cage.

OOC Notes
Her heart fluttered as the Ringmaster stopped in front of her. Milly smiled gently at the man, offering him the rose, "Good Morning, Ringmaster..." she greeted.
OOC Notes
Lark's smile brightened considerably. They were right. The Ringmaster couldn't hurt him before, or during, a performance.
So, not until tonight.
He picked up a scone, glad that he wore only a half mask so he could eat.

Glow watched the Ringmaster jealously, knowing full-well where he was going. She tossed back her dark hair an headed off for the dining hall.

OOC Notes
Glow isn't here yet. And almost as soon as it was said, the horrible annoying shiny thing walked in. "Speak of the Devil! Hello Glow, we were just talking about horrible demons and Devils, the bane of society who must eat Chrildren at night and enjoy it. They're in this one book called the bible, interesting read..."
Confucia smiled behind her mask as Kohn snorted at her joke. Daring that was, but funny...

OOC Notes
Sawyer snorted at Coni's joke as well, before slipping on his mask. Just in case the Ringmaster were to follow his....what was Glow to him, really?
Sawyer had the sinking feeling he didn't want to know.
"I can find out for you, if you want." Elora jumped up onto the table, before she began mocking Glow. Sawyer stifled a snort of laughter.
--x--
"Good morning," he nodded at Milly, accepting the rose. But he didn't smile. "Did you have nice dreams? Today is performance day. Are you ready?"
He seemed in a good enough mood this morning.......
But who knew how long that would last.

Re: [OOC] Di Morte
Okay guys, I am gonna give this like two more days before I assume its totally dead and I pull out. Since even OOC is dead. I might suggest a posting order for next time and maybe not have so many characters, perhaps it can carry on if I withdraw a personality.
Re: [OOC] Di Morte
Posted! My power went out last night because of this ice storm when I intended to post -.-

Re: [OOC] Di Morte
Actually I based him off a friend of mine *wipes tear of laughter off his eye* and he still has 6 years to grow O_O.
Well how about I strip him of his ability and leave him as a tall guy?

Re: [OOC] Di Morte
Two things: Breaking things down at the molecular level is really, really strong and rather power playing. Because he can literally take people apart. The Ringmaster will not have that. Also, it's not possible for someone to be 6'10.
Re: [OOC] Di Morte
Do you think my second character is a bit overpowered? I mean yeah he's as dumb as a post but he's 6 foot 10!
Re: [OOC] Di Morte
Vlad: If I let you have the twins, then you'll have 4 characters. People are only allowed 3. As well, the bending of time and space seems a little to...power-playing.
And please explain to me what Will is doing in a PM.

Re: [OOC] Di Morte
Is there a faster way to talk than this? It might make it easier to communicate. I know Palringo is a good chat app that is for both Iphone and computer. it has group chat, its what my friends and I use on my online game Kingdoms at War.
Re: [OOC] Di Morte
Huuurrrr gaiz. I JUST got home from Red and Black Dance Team tryouts (you guys have no idea what I'm talking about). Today was simply learning four 8-counts of a dance, plus about three 8-counts of a kick line routine, and then Monday we actually have to audition. And my back is soooooo dead right now. WOOO SENIOR YEAAARRRR! >.>
You know what. Here's some videos if you'd like to see exactly what our dance team does. The information you'll need to know about it is in the video description. xD
As a little side note, I'm on Red Team. :3 But I'll post a black team video my sister got as well.
Black Galaxy - 2010
Red Underworld - 2010
Red Circus - 2009
ANYWAY so that was what I was doing.
And yeah.
So I'm online now. I just have to go read some posts. :3
PS @ Tæfarós
Yes. That line was intentional. ;3
ILOVEMUSICJOKESOHMYGOD :D

Re: [OOC] Di Morte
Eastern Standard Time. Because that's where I live. X)
I mean, I won't get mad if you post past that time range or something, but I just don't want a lot of posting when only like, two people are online and everybody else can't make it. Because nobody wants to read the conversations that takes place between characters that don't really have anything to do with yours.
And Taefaros, I totes get what you're saying. Mebbe their show will begin then. :3
If Gorie gets online. >_<

Re: [OOC] Di Morte
Ahhhh senioritis. I remember that...I had a terrible case of it haha. Okay that posting time might work. I don't put the baby down until 7 or 7:30 and then I have to do dinner so I wont be on until probaby closer to the 9 or ten mark. You all make me feel old lol. And that is really cool about the art gallery T. I was in college art my entire high school career, but I got married and had a baby my senior year so I have yet to persue that any further.
Alright I shan't bore ya'll anymore with my life story haha. <3

Re: [OOC] Di Morte
Sorry about the craziness, Akai. High school slump club--let's start one (special uber points for major cases of senioritis). I go to an art fart school, which means that we sit around all day acting pretentious and have no business doing MANLY HONORABLE THINGS like swimming. Seriously, you've probably got the better excuses.
That schedule sounds about right, though the posting seemed to pace itself a bit when we all decided to become Animal Collective. Awesome. Say, if I post at 11:30, will you rage?
By the way, today was really something. The first senior art final went up today; we basically get the school gallery to ourselves for a week, and son, I was not disappoint. Spent most of the night with my partner before she offs back to college in the morning, so here I am after dark again. xD
I titally understand, Gorie. It's all of matter of compromising how early the post-school hours will be, which range from a lot to...a lot more. Speed reading isn't quite my deal unfortunately, although I do have a habit of rereading posts for the hell of it. You guys are just too sweet. Also, was the "acting was her forte line" intentional? Because in the context of music, it was brilliant.
Unless you take your daughter on a play date, Adel? I daw'd hard at that. Seriously.
Oh hey, how about having Wyn and Sage start their performance after his dance offering? They could be accompanied by musical outlets and whatnot. :)
And now I'll shut up, maybe post if I don't pass out soon.

Re: [OOC] Di Morte
Bejesus. >_>
You guys post so much. I apologize for getting on so late this past week! I've had swim practice and we're tapering because it's our last week (T.T).
So. I've been thinking. In order for people to catch up (I know FancyMittens and Everscale have been complaining to me about how they can't keep up with everything that's going on since all three of us [know each other irl] are still in high school and therefore don't have as much time as others), we should have a posting schedule.
Every night, at around 6:00, the posting should begin. And end at around 10:30. That way, people can be on and we can know what's happening and everything doesn't really run away before the Ringmaster can even get a word in.
