Introduction

I've always been fascinated with the human mind; how it works and more specifically how it breaks.

...call me Harley Harlequin...


Do you remember? Do you remember the moment you lost control?
They will try to convince you... Try to make you believe that you're one of them. But you're not - are you? You're just as ...damaged, just as broken as me.
Can I really play the game this way?
You've lost it Quinn! Wake up now; wake up before it's too late and he's won.
Can I really lose control?

Hey people - my name's Kay and I am a twenty-one year old wannabe writer. I have a strange obsession with darker, 'rotting of the soul' themes and found that I couldn't find a role more perfect to write than Harley. A bit of information about my Harley seeing as she's a bit different from the cartoon's (as is Heath's Joker). She is a perfectionist, boarder-line OCD-ist. She has a schedule for everything and has to have complete control or everything falls apart. That's something the Joker will pick up on and will use to sort of break her apart - taking that control and making her victim to it. She started out as an Intern at Arkham Asylum - cleaning and observing and just recently was granted permission to begin speaking to a few lower-level patients. Her reasons for having such a fascination for the broken mind is unknown to all but her, but she does have a reason and it's forced her to choose the path she has.

The story begins a few months after the events that took place in Dark Knight. The Joker was sent to Arkham Asylum so that his mental state could be analyzed. Harley has yet to see this 'boogeyman' but she's seen the tapes and read the newspaper; she knows exactly what he's capable of. Part of her is very curious to find out just how damaged this man is, and the other part of her is terrified to even step on his floor. It's been one week since the Joker's arrival, and it seems his presence has caused the inmates to go even crazier. The Asylum is hectic and Harleen finds herself bombarded with so much paperwork, she can barely see over the stacks on her small desk. Overtime calling Quinzel. But every time she walks into the Asylum anymore, she feels a haunting shudder pass through her - as if the fates are warning her. But of what exactly?

Please, if anyone is interested - join me! I've been trying to find a Joker for a while now.

Toggle Rules

  1. I'm looking for someone who can play the Joker as closely to Heath's character as possible. I'm trying to keep it as realistic as possible. I am looking for someone more literate, but as long as you can spell correctly, that's good.
  2. I have another RP request up very similar to this one, however there are a few key differences. This will be a one-on-one RP that takes place on this site. I'm looking for something a bit more easier and personal.
  3. The RP will be slapped with a hard and heavy R rating. If you aren’t comfortable with the potential violence, obscenities, vulgarities, descriptive sexual themes, and/or gore, I wouldn’t advise joining. Smut, violence, foul language - it's all good.
  4. When filling out the character form, you don't have to fill out everything. Just the vitals and maybe a small RP sample.
  5. Most importantly - have fun!

Re: Puppet Strings

You cannot forget Guy!!! No one EVER remembers poor Guy, he was one of the biggest reasons why Harley went crazy! :/
I'd love to roleplay as Guy, if you would be interested in that. :3 Even if it was just a flash back. :D

Re: [OOC] Puppet Strings

Marrrrrrrk Hammmiiiiiilllllll--I do enjoy both versions of the Joker, so I'll be lurkin' around this one.

Kay

Re: [OOC] Puppet Strings

Yes, I am looking for something a bit darker. But again, thanks for the interest!

Re: [OOC] Puppet Strings

Hmm, id love to do a little RP'ing as the Joker, but from what I can see this role may be somewhat above my abilities due to its dark nature, il keep an eye on this.

Kay

Re: [OOC] Puppet Strings

I know, they're great. But I'm looking for something a bit darker - and more realistic.
Thanks for showing interest though. :)

Re: [OOC] Puppet Strings

Mannn, if you were doing the cartoon versions, I'd totally sign up. I love those crazy kids.
