A Happy Family

Tips: 0.00 INK Postby Thunder on Mon Oct 15, 2012 10:44 pm

The Regan Family has been one of America's favorite families. They're featured on magazine covers, are constantly being interviewed and there's never a day where a new rumor isn't started about one of them.

Image

Richard Regan is one of the biggest names in Hollywood. Every movie that he's starred in has been a hit and all of his movies seem to be Blockbuster hits. His beautiful wife, Kathryn Regan, spent her young years as a supermodel and after marrying Richard, established a career as a children's book author and has done extremely well in the industry. The seemingly perfect couple has four children: Daughter 1 (age 24), Daughter 2 (age 21), Son 1 (age 19) and Daughter 3 (age 8).
  • Daughter 1 has established a career for herself as a musician and has been dating the football star, Boyfriend 1, for over two years. She's known to be the low-key one in the family, preferring to stay in on Friday nights rather than hit up the clubs or make social appearances. She comes across as mature and responsible, but sometimes cold.
  • Daughter 2 followed in both of her parents' footsteps, becoming a successful actress and model. Unlike her older sister, Daughter 2 enjoys the spotlight and doesn't miss a party or red carpet event. She's never been able to keep a stable relationship and while her parents just relate this to her being young, it's really because she's been in a secret relationship with another girl, Girlfriend 1. Richard and Kathryn are fairly traditional and knowing that one of their children were gay would not sit well.
  • Son 1 is the only Regan son and with that came a lot of expectations. Richard pushed him into sports at an early age and while he seemed to be a promising athlete, his teenage years led him onto a path of drugs and alcohol. He started off with only alcohol and marijuana but before he knew it, his addictions had spiraled out of control and no matter how many times his parents put him into private rehab programs, he continued to go back onto the drugs. He dropped out of high school during his junior year and was disowned by his father who felt that he was an embarrassment to the family. Son 1 spent the next two years living off of friends and the money that his mother and sisters would give him behind Richard's back. While Son 1's problems did attract media attention, Richard and Kathryn paid off the major magazines not to cover any stories on him and a few months after being kicked out of their home, the story on Son 1 died down in the media.
  • Daughter 3 is the baby of the family and while it has the benefits of getting nearly any tangible item that could be wished for, she lacks the family life that her older siblings experienced since she is the only child still living at home.


On Christmas Eve, Son 1 returned to his parents' house for the first time in two years. It was a tradition to spend Christmas Eve there, so the whole family was there enjoying the holiday's eve. The Regan estate was dressed in thousands of lights and decorations. The large fireplace crackled and the smell of freshly baked cookies circulated throughout the house as the family sat at the dinner table, finishing up their meal. When the doorbell rang, Richard decided to answer it as the house staff had already left. Son 1 was intoxicated to a point where he was barely coherent but his mind was clear enough to do one thing- the one thing that he had wanted to do since his father had disowned him. He shot at his father six times, although only four of them hit his father. The other two hit his mother who had run outside to see what was going on. Richard and Kathryn were both pronounced dead by the time that they reached the hospital and before the police showed up, Son 1 used the last round in his gun to take his own life.

Calling it a tragedy would be an understatement. On Christmas Eve, two of America's beloved celebrities were murdered by their own son who then committed suicide, leaving behind an emotionally broken family. Daughter 1, her boyfriend, Daughter 2 and her girlfriend are now forced to move back to their childhood home to care for their younger sister, and if the emotional trauma of losing both parents and their brother at once wasn't enough, they now must also face the media.

This reminds me greatly of that previous RP. Sound of Music. :P

I'll try to have a profile for the musician soon.

there is no reason for bringing my life to you, other
than losing it.
I said, I just want to know you and then disappear.
you said, knowing me does not mean dying.

Sounds good! I actually based it off that and a roleplay "Smile for the Paparazzi" that I came up with with another user on here (BurningBridges), but unlike those, I'm hoping that this one doesn't die off after a week.

Well, there's my character--she's not quite done, still have a few details I'd like to add when I have the time, and of course I need to edit in names and details as other characters come in, but that's pretty much it.

/raises hand. At least, I'm contendin' for it.

Also, sorry if my earlier post seemed like it was accusing you of stealing the idea of Sound of Music, Thunder. I'd thought you were the GM of that one. :v

We just need Daughter 2 now and no, I definitely didn't take it that way! Don't worry about it.

MaliceInWonderland, can you resubmit your character? I'm on my phone and it shows that there are no unapproved characters.
