Welcome to the Black Parade

Welcome to the Black Parade

0 INK

When you sneak out to attend a freak show, you find yourself drugged minutes after the show starts. Not all of the audience will survive, but if you do, you will not be the same.

874 readers have visited Welcome to the Black Parade since silver·wolf created it.

Introduction

In the year 1962, there is a buzz of excitemenr in the air. The infamous sideshow known as the "Black Parade" has finally reached the small town of Pleasant Grove, a small city in ain. Known worldwide for their amazing freak show, the Black parade has kids excited and parents cautious. When an unfortunate . . . accident results in the gruesome deaths of a teenage boy and girl, the show is shut down, never to reopen.



But sometimes, fate intervenes.

Fifty years later, in the year 2012, the Black Parade returns to Pleasant Grove. Every teen has heard of the magical Black Parade from their grandparentage, wondering all throughout childhood of the wonders and excitement of the freak show. When they return, every teen wants to go, but grandparents and parents alike forbid it. Why would they begin again in the city they ended? Why does this entertainment only facinate teens, and neither children nor adults? And why do two of the advertized freaks look exactly lie the boy and girl who died fifty years before?

When you arrive, you find yourself surrounded by hundreds of other teens crowded into one audience. After five minutes, a thick green fog wafts into the audience. Excactly sixty minutes later, you wake up. Many are dead. All have been forgotten by the outside world. But you are
Not the same person as you were before. You are a freak, with freakish abilities, surounded by other freaks, though not all the same. There is no escape, or so it seems. Will you escape, or will you stay and travel the world with the Black Parade? Remember, though, no one in the outside world knows who you are. All evidence of your exsistance has been erased. Yearbooks, albums, online information, everything.
Now, here's where you come in. You are one of the teens, ages thirteen to nineteen, who chose to sneak out and steal away to the freak show. The majority of you will be goth, although other types of people are welcome.

Re: Welcome to the Black Parade

Well I guess since they accepted my character with realistic, it could go either way or they want realistic. I would love if we could get a few more characters and start this.

Re: Welcome to the Black Parade

I have pretty the same question as Dead Doll. Would you prefer an anime appearance or realistic? I have no problems with either though for some others, anime may be a bit easier to find when concerning the 'unusual'. You won't see a lot of realistic ones where the model is posing as a deformed beast or something.

Hey, Dead Doll :D

Re: Welcome to the Black Parade

Just curious, but are you wanting real pics or anime? I can do either. Also, I was wanting to make a male character too, but I was wondering if I could make him a little older (possibly 20?) just to fit his story in. I promise, he will still go along with the story line.

Hey 2 Minutes :D

Re: Welcome to the Black Parade

Me gusta. Expect a character up soon, probably a sociopath or something. Yay, sociopaths :D

Hello people I don't know!

Re: Welcome to the Black Parade

I would like to reserve a female spot please.

Also, hey Firebird :D

Re: Welcome to the Black Parade

Can I reserve a spot in this RP? Seems cool and I love these kinds of RPs!
