Well, here is the OOC! :D And once again, I'm sorry for you guys that created a character in the other thing I had. I'm sure that it's not that big a deal, but I try to follow the rules and this is for OOCs and that was just for an Interest Check! :D So here you go!

I have an owner of The Cirque, Christopher by Hal_Wannabe. And I have two freaks. I need more freaks and you can be more than one if you want, but probably no more than three unless you want like triplets or something like that. Or a family... I guess it just depends on how awesome and capable you think you are. But you're all awesome if you're reading this! :D LOL

Anyways... I need some human workers, maybe a crazy fan or few... And I think we need some bad guys. Nothing like huge, but maybe someone who's out to close The Cirque down. Or maybe a freak who hates the world and who is turned bitter by how he was treated growing up and he hates The Cirque for giving other freaks what he could not have: a family (wow... that's a really good idea! :D go me!!! anyone interested in being a bitter freak? i think this guy/girl's mind should be changed though by The Cirque people).

There isn't really a plot. I just want it to form as it may. But I think I'll say something if if starts getting crazy.

The Cirque is a band of freaks and their human helpers (not saying that freaks can't be human too). It travels around the world entertaining audiences with their amazing acts. I think I would like dark acts and then acts to brighten everything up, like a slap in the face and then a hug to make it better. And like any group of people that travel around their will be drama, romance, rivals, friends, enemies, etc.

The Cirque's number one rule: If you hurt one of us, you hurt all of us.

WARNING!!!!!! If you put a character into this RP that does not have even the simplest character sheet in this OOC, then I'm claiming said character free game to anyone who wishes to use it. Meaning that if only you yourself want to have control over a character you create then said character better have a sheet here otherwise I don't care if the other RPers godmod it all day long.

We'll see what else happens as character sheets are put up.

Any questions? Please ask here incase others have the same question.

Thank you! :D

There. I fixed it a bit :] I can make another charry if you need me to. It can be one of the evil but the circus people change them into good peopless.

:D She's still adorable! Hi5! You can be a bad guy, as long as you're not opposed to another bad guy like it. :D

Thanks! ^_^
And whats the last part mean.
As long as whatttt? Dx
I'm not very bright O_O

Oh! Like, as long as someone else can be a bitter freak who hates the world but changes from his experiences in The Cirque too. Just incase you're not the only one who wants to do it :D Did I answer you or not at all?

Ooohh. Lmfao. Why would I not want that? It's your roleplay duhhh xD x]
-starts making another character.-

I wish more people would make one... *pout*

I'm working on mine... I think I may have 3... Definitely 2

Oops! Didn't even notice that the character sheet was missing!

Here it is:

Character Sheet
Name:
Age:
Freakiness: (lame word I know, but what makes you a freak? if you are one of course)
Side: (are you good or bad?)
Age:
Appearance: (pics would be great but not required!)
History/Bio: (be sure to include how you came to be in The Cirque and parent stuff if your character even remembers his parents)
Personality: (you can put this in the bio I guess if you want)
Orientation: (gay? bi? straight? do you like humans? do you prefer freaks?)
Other: (anything i missed)

Here's my first character:

Name: Jacyn Uther
Age: 18
Freakiness: He was born with hair as white as snow and a tiny horn in the middle of his head, which has now grown longer and bigger. They call him the Human Unicorn on stage. He has the uncanny ability to control light. His act consists of forming orbs of light out of nothing and then creating things with them an making the dance around stage and stuff like that.
Side: Like any unicorn, or at least like how they are potreyed, he is pure of heart. He couldn't hurt anyone even if was to save his own life. He gives the term "a heart of gold" a new meaning.
Appearance: (ignore the bigger sexy one behind him)

History/Bio: Jacyn was born to a beautiful woman who had to unfortunately make a living off the streets. She sold her body to buy food and to go to school. Getting pregnant was a shock but she had been relatively excited, she'd always wanted a kid. She knew who the father was because she loved him and he frequently paid for her company. It was Mr. Uther that got her off the streets and helped her. But when their son was born, Mr. Uther was repulsed by the horn and the odd red eyes and the snow white hair. He would not allow the 'thing' to live under his roof. Jacyn's mother was heartbroken, but she owed the man so much and she loved him so much... Luckily, because of her job on the streets she heard of The Cirque and had had the chance to meet the owner, an incredibly young looking man. She managed to find The Cirque again and begged the boyish man to take her son; he did. She could leave him knowing that he would be safe and watched over. Jacyn doesn't know this, but his mother has been to the show a few times when ever it was near where she lives. She loves seeing him and is very proud of him.
Personality: Jacyn is very quiet. He believes he is incredibly ugly for some reason. He hates his white hair and his ruby-red eyes. He hates his moonlight pale skin that seems to glow. He keeps to himself and tries to stay in the background as much as he can. He only accepted a part in the show because he feels he owes the owner for taking him in. He takes the awed silence that he recieves on stage as a disgusted one, when in reality the audience is surprised at how beautiful he is.
Orientation: He isn't sure what he is, due to the fact that he doesn't believe anyone can love him. (i believe I'll make him bi for now though. He'll probably end up gay since I've made him so femininely beautiful).
Other: He likes music and he likes dancing as well, but he does either rarely. One day someone will make him see that he isn't ugly.

Can you see the picture?

No D:

Name: Christopher St. Claire
Age: (assuming 2010 is the year) 372 (looks 12)
Freakiness: Never ages.
Side: good
Appearance: Small business suit. (didn't like previous description. His hair is a dark brown and sticks to his head as if permanently combed. Eyes are a dark world weary blue.
History/Bio: Christopher was born in the street. Raised in it, stole from those who walked in it, ate in it, and fought in it. All this changed when he tried to pick the pocket of a woman walking down the street. Seeing his starved frame she took him in to her home. She was the Madame of an upscale club for Gentlemen. In return for room and board, he cleaned, washed and cooked for the women living there. He saw many things he shouldn't have leading to a retardation of even the most rudimentary sexual urges.

In 1658 he finally gave up hope of growing past his total of 4'5". Deciding it was time for him to make his own way in the world, he joined up with a traveling theater group. They played many shows and he became an expert at all aspects of the business, set making, makeup, acting, barking, (announcing the show) In fact, over his lifetime he's returned to the stage at least 5 times, each tour lasting at least a decade, one of them lasting almost three decades.

During this time he started using the stage makeup to make himself appear to be an older, if quite short, adult. After he left the stage for the first time. He signed on as a cabin boy and made his way to America. During his time there he's amassed several fortunes and lost several more.

In 1953 he founded The Cirque, appealing to his sense of showmanship, and allowing others like him a place they could be protected. His reasons for this are his own. (will PM you) He owns a small town's worth of land in Kentucky. It has been developed to give the show a home during the winter months.

During his travels he's picked up many obscure skill sets. Among his other abilities he's studied fencing, mysticism, knife throwing, and bowling. (His current favorite game, his trailer has a truncated bowling lane.)

Every few years Mr. St Claire retires from the show to raise a family. In reality he controls the show through proxies as he builds himself a new identity.

He also has deep connections to the Unified Intelligence Task force

Personality: Serious to a fault, he's utterly uninterested in making friends. After all, time turns all to dust. All he wants is a safe place to live out his extraordinarily long life. Often pessimistic, but every once in a while shows a hint that deep inside, he hopes for the best.
Orientation: Asexual, a result of his body never going into puberty and his vast knowledge of sex from his time working in an upscale whorehouse in London. (Cleaning, washing, and cooking)

Good, good! :D

Dang... And I need to get a pic you can see...

This looks really interesting : ) I'll post up a character sheet later on!

Yay! :D You should! :D

And so should the rest of you guys browsing this forum! I know you're there because it shows a list of people at the bottom of the screen that are viewing this! It'll be fun! Join us! :D

Here you go.
Character Sheet
Name: 'Jinx' (Her real name is unknown.)
Age: Unknown
Freakiness: Jinx can play the fiddle so well it is literally enchanting, able to conjure up illusions and things of a more real nature but never speaks or has a single sound exit her mouth. Additionally, she doesn't appear to age.
Side: Good.

Appearance: That, but with an odd tattoo on her throat and wearing jeans with a top similar to the dress in the picture and old leather boots.

History/Bio: It is rumored that Jinx was born the same day the violin was invented, her parents were gypsies and wandered Europe for the majority of her childhood, teaching her to play the fiddle beautifully. Her skill in violin earned the family money but it was her singing that was most extraordinary, a voice of unearthly beauty that not man nor beast could resist its charm and power. As she grew, physical appearance began to mirror this and was confronted with many suitors, though she resisted their advances. Unfortunately, one of them would not be so easily rejected and has lead to her current predicament, cursed never to have another sound pass her lips until her real name is spoken aloud three times. Jinx joined The Cirque in its first year of operating as a musician for the performers until her gift was realized and began contributing to them.

Personality: Despite her considerable, though not biological, age Jinx has remained surprisingly upbeat and frankly immature if only in her humour. The woman is well known for her pranks and other mischievous exploits, fond of invoking anyone's laughter though none of hers can be heard but she means well. However, at times her playfulness vanishes in times of tragedy, especially a death which she often envies the victim for, and hates to see her friends turn to bones and dust on the winds of time. Still, Jinx does not shy away from friendship as feels without companionship her existence would become a pointless one and is very caring towards others. She loves music and dancing to it, often doing so while playing and knows far more than she lets on.

Orientation: Straight

Other: Jinx plays backing music for all acts in the cirque and often uses it to contribute to them.

Hope it isn't too late to join! This RP sounds fun and interesting :)


Name: Emory Rae, sometimes just called Em for short.

Age: 23

Freakiness: An odd form of being able to shift-shape; she is still progressing. She has a normal human physique, yet can manipulate her body to an extent of acquiring/growing animal characteristics at will. An example: she can take on cat-like qualities of forming a tail, the cat eyes, and cat senses. Her skin changes to fur, and her nails grow long and sharp, yet she still looks like a human (if that makes sense). She cannot fully transform into a cat, for example, or any other animal. She can only take on key qualities of an animal, and can only transform into animals that she has seen and studied about. She is young and still developing her skills. In time she hopes to be able to fully transform into animals. [note: cat was just one example; yet it is the form she most comfortable changing into]

Side: She had good intentions. Lets just say, she can be easily persuaded into being good or bad; just depends on the people she meets and surrounds herself with. So far only good has come from her. (for now :P)

Appearance:
In regular human form, she has short dark hair and blue eyes. She is tan, and like in this picture, often illuminates light in a pattern on her skin. This picture shows what she looks like in cat form, plus a tail.
She is in all reality a beautiful human, but can turn very dark and scary depending on what animal she is trying to transform into.

History/Bio: She was born 23 years ago by a cursed woman. A father figure in her life was non existent. Her mother was as well a shape shifter, but could completely transform herself into an animal, something Emory always loved and admired in her mother. The two lived in a deeply covered area for some time, her mother teaching her different skills in hunting and fighting, as well as how to handle transforming. One day her mother went out to hunt in tiger form, and never returned. A hunter had found what he thought was a tiger roaming around the forest and shot her, not having a clue that was no ordinary tiger. So at the age of 14, Emory was left alone to fend for herself out in the wild. One day she stumbled upon a town, hungry for food and water. She stayed in her human form, not wanting to scare any of the locals. They took care of her and for years she lived in this town, jumping from home to home as a foster child. She kept her secret hidden for so long, she at times forgot she had the power. Things changed one day when The Cirque came to this tiny town. The foster family she was with took her to see all the 'freaks.' It was in that moment that she felt alive again, a moment where she forever embraced her origins. During the middle of the show, she ran out from the stands and onto stage. The crowd grew quiet as they stared at Emory disrupting the act. As guards tried to get her to come down though, Emory bursted into a chuckle and in an instant formed a pair of eagle wings on her back and flew up to the top of the tent. Gasps spread the room, but the freaks only smiled in awe. From that day on she traveled around with The Cirque, and it has now been 5 years.

Personality: Proud of her skills and ability; being so young compared to most of the people in the Cirque, she was very rambunctious and hyper. Can be very moody and mean when angered, yet she means well to those close to her.

Orientation: Straight



hope this works :)
