A Big Bang Theory Roleplay for a small group of dedicated roleplayers.

Introduction

Basically it's the gang as usual with the addition of a newcomer. This doesn't have much of a plot as of yet as I'm hoping that we can develop one throughout the roleplay. Personally I like the idea of it playing out in an episodic manner with the entire thing taking place over a season or two but as I said that's just an idea I like. If you're playing as a canon I strongly suggest you read up about the canon you have chosen.

Here are the characters:

Dr. Sheldon Cooper - played by Planter777
Dr. Leonard Hofstadter - played by jackrules158
Dr. Rajesh Koothrappali - open
Howard Wolowitz -open
Penny - played by Sorella
OC/ aforementioned newcomer - played by snipergirl24 The OC will be a relative of either Leonard or Sheldon who has come to stay with them for a reason that I'll let the person playing as them decide.

Other canon characters will be playable but I'd like to get these spots filled first.

And here is the character skeleton:

Name:

Gender:

Appearance: (non-anime picture and written description please)

Personality:

History:

Likes:

Dislikes:

Family:

Sexuality:

Sample post:

Well that's about it. Please read the rules if you didn't already and if they seem harsh please know that I'm just trying to make sure this roleplay doesn't end up dead like far too many others. If you have any questions, suggestions, or concerns please don't hesitate to tell me what they are.

Toggle Rules

Follow the rules. (fairly self-explanatory)
Acknowledge that you have read, understood, and promise to follow these rules by putting the phrase "I have read, understood, and promise to follow the rules." at the end of your character sheet. (I have noticed far too many roleplayers either skimming or not even bothering to read the rules)
Please reserve a character via OOC or PM before submitting a character.
Reservations last 24 hours.
If I reject your character you will receive a PM explaining why and what you can do to make the character better.
Do NOT abandon this. If you have a history of abandoning roleplays or breaking rules you will need to explain to me why you would do so with those and not this. (I'm sorry if this rule seems a bit harsh but I've seen far too many roleplays drop dead because one person just disappeared)
If you have any question regarding the rules please do not hesitate to ask.
If your character is rejected it is most likely because you did not follow the rules.
Please try to keep the canon characters in-character. I'm not saying that you can't develop their personalities a little but no complete overhauls.
I am currently permitting only one OC.
Only one character per person. This rule is subject to change depending on how many people express an interest in this.
Please follow the character skeleton.
At least one post per day is preferred. At least one post every three days is required.
If you are going to be absent for more than three days please notify me.
Have fun! Unless you don't want to have fun, in which case don't have fun.

"Nice to meet you Sheldon, and yeah about the last time you saw me", Jessica bit her lip. "That was the way mom wanted me to act and dress. But here I don't have to worry about my mother throwing all my favorite stuff out. Do you know how long it took me to dig my comic book collection out of the dumpster, God help me and the sanitizing afterwards" she said with a slight twinge. That was a memory she didn't want to remember, "Well lets go get my suitcase" and she began to walk towards the baggage claim. As she was rummaging through her jacket pockets, for the claim ticket her sonic screwdriver pen fell out and skittered across the floor. "Frak!" she said as she went after it landed right next to an elderly woman, that made a funny face at her as Jessica picked it up. With a flip of a switch the pen buzzed and the light came on, "Good it still works".

Sheldon was pleasantly surprised. Based off first impressions, which his mother had always told him were very important, Jessica was going to prove almost as tolerable as Leonard. "What is that?" Sheldon asked with interest. He could tell that things weren't going to be nearly as bad as he had predicted. Well it looked as though he wouldn't need to ask for Howard;s help installing an escape hatch in the apartment after all.

"Oh this it's my sonic screwdriver pen that my friend Jack got me for my birthday last year. It's not a very practical pen but it definitely gets peoples attention" She said with a smile. As they came to the belt she looked fer her suitcase, "I hope everything staid in place do you know how many space bags I had to use. Approximately four, do you know how hard it is to vacuum seal a toothbrush and not flatten the bristles".

She grabbed the suitcase and pulled out the handle on the rolling case, "I really appreciate you guys letting me stay at your apartment, the truth is I'm really here to go back to college and get my masters in physics. But I couldn't tell you in the e-mails Leonard because my mother has a habit of hacking my e-mail accounts. You'd think at her age she would be computer incompetent but she still reads my e-mails. She's never understood me, and would be like a Wompa on a rampage if she knew I was going back to school. She has this ignorant idea that I want to be an actress, the only reason I majored in performing arts is so she would stay away while I was in college before. I barely passed my art classes, as soon I would get on stage in front of the audience, I would sound like William Shatner's music career"

"Yes I do know." Sheldon answered her question about the toothbrush, despite the fact that the question was probably rhetorical. "Also I presume Leonard informed you that there would be a roommate agreement?" as he said this he raised the stack of paper in his right hand. "I did bring a pen but assuming that the sonic screwdriver pen works you could just use that. Leonard you'll have to sign it to as it alters a few details of the original agreement." It occurred to him again how of the mark his assumptions had been, although they were mostly caused by Leonard's accidental misinformation. Sheldon resolved that, in the future, he would always check with Leonard's mother about matters involving Leonard's family.

Jessica nodded and took the almost ten page document in her hand, She sat down on a bench and began to read, and in a matter of minutes she had finished. Pulling her pen out and clicked it, "Sign on the lines with the arrow sticky next to them right". She quickly signed in all the marked spots from what she read nothing was too unreasonable in her opinion. "I think thats it here you go Sheldon, pleasure doing business with you".

"well I'll tell you this much you just signed your soul to the devil" Leonard said jokingly knowing he was going to get a ten minute lecture from sheldon probably having something to do with how little contracts and the devil have to do with eah other "here let me carry your bag so your here to get your physics degree" Leonard asked

Jessica laughed, and handed her bag to Leonard "I read it but there was nothing in it I can't not do, just let me know where your spot is when we get there Sheldon". She looked back at Leonard when he said something about her going back to school, "Yes, it's what I've always wanted to do I mean, I aced all my physic's classes when I was college I love it. Learning all the in's and out of something no smaller than a particle it's exciting to me" she said.

"Now that's just inaccurate Leonard." Sheldon protested. "If I were the devil I'm fairly certain my religious fanatic of a mother would have said something about it by now. Also I was baptized and my head didn't burst into flames." he then handed Leonard the contract. "By the way please sign here acknowledging that, in the few places that this agreement conflicts with the other, this one is to be followed. And Leonard I hope you mean an internship or after she's done with school because I doubt that even Dr. Gablehauser will hire someone unless they already had a degree."

Penny was trying to get on her laptop and it was impossible but she was trying for hours but finally she gave up and took it walking over to Leonard and Sheldon's apartment. She saw the door open so she walked in. Without even really looking she started to talk. "Hey, Leonard do you think you could help me with my-" She cut off her sentence realizing there was a girl in the apartment who wasn't her. "So who's this, Leonard?" She asked.

"I'm your neighbor, not roommate. I think I'd die if I was your's and Sheldon's roommate." She said mumbling. She looked at Jessica and smiled. "It's nice to meet you Jessica." She said and turned to look at Leonard. "See, you can't base someone off of their appearance of when you saw them last Leonard." She said with a small smile. "Anyway, I need help fixing my laptop..I suppose any one of your guy's help would be great." Penny said.

Penny was a little shocked by what Leonard was saying. She really didn't know what to say and she was completely speechless. She still liked Leonard but they had finally became friends and good ones at that and he decided to ask her out again. What if things went wrong and she dumped him again? How would he deal with that? Shouldn't she give him a second chance though. So many thoughts ran through her head. "I'll get back to you later." She said and closed the door before anything else could be said.

Penny sighed and she went out like she said she was gonna. She checked her mail and she also went to the bar to have a drink. That was it, just one. Penny walked back to her apartment and she paused as she reached her door and finally she walked up to Sheldon and Leonard's apartment and knocked on the door.

Most recent OOC posts in The new-roommate disruption

Re: [OOC] The new-roommate disruption

Would anyone happen to know someone who might be interested in playing as Howard or Raj? I'm not sure how much longer we can justify their absence. Also anyone who wants to play as more than one character is now welcome to do so.

Re: [OOC] The new-roommate disruption

Sorry for not posting... I was going to last night but my internet wasn't working. I also had homework that needed to be done seeing as the end of term 2 is coming up.

Re: [OOC] The new-roommate disruption

Sorry for the confusion everyone. Me and jackrules158 must have posted around the same time.

Re: [OOC] The new-roommate disruption

Yea, I was about to say on here that I was sorry I couldn't post once every three days...because I simply had nothing to post about. :)

Re: [OOC] The new-roommate disruption

I think we should have them head back to the apartment soon so the Sorella has something to post about.

Re: [OOC] The new-roommate disruption

That is understandable. Hope your date goes well.

Re: [OOC] The new-roommate disruption

will not be posting myuch today because I have a date I will post when I get home

Re: [OOC] The new-roommate disruption

Alright we will skip ahead to when they're arriving at the airport.

Re: [OOC] The new-roommate disruption

I wouldn't mind doing so :)

Re: [OOC] The new-roommate disruption

Everyone is on cool, you think we could skip ahead to the day Jessica is supposed to come.

Re: [OOC] The new-roommate disruption

I caught the first one and the sheldon lol those are good

Re: [OOC] The new-roommate disruption

By the way I just wanted to let you all in on a joke or two I put in the roleplay during its creation. The first is the titles on the list of characters:

Dr. Sheldon Cooper
Dr. Leonard Hofstadter
Dr. Rajesh Koothrappali
Howard Wolowitz

Poor Howard. The second joke was the inclusion of sexuality in the character sheet which was really only mentioned because I firstly wanted to see what whoever played as Raj would answer and I also wanted to mention Howard's theory about Sheldon one day splitting into two Sheldons. So maybe it's just one joke I'm not sure if the second technically qualifies.

Re: [OOC] The new-roommate disruption

Penny is accepted. We now have enough characters to start posting if you all want to, Howard and Raj usually come over in the evening rather than the morning anyways.

Re: [OOC] The new-roommate disruption

I suppose not. I don't want to get too far into it so Howard and Raj are unable to catch up but I think we will be able to start soon.

Re: [OOC] The new-roommate disruption

question do we have to have all the charachters filled before we begin?

Re: [OOC] The new-roommate disruption

It's gonna be fun at first though cause he thinks she's a total bisnouch LOL

Re: [OOC] The new-roommate disruption

I have to say sniper girl I love your charahter I have a feeling her and leonard will get along well

Re: [OOC] The new-roommate disruption

Cool beans thanks for accepting her, I'm excited for this one.

Re: [OOC] The new-roommate disruption

Sorella
Yes that's fine. That is actually the reason I didn't have her last name up there with that of everyone else.

EDIT
Actually snipergirl, I really like the OC you've made. Also I'm delighted and surprised at how well everyone is following the character sheet. I have underestimated you all and for that I am sorry.
