The Rebellious

The Rebellious

0 INK

A couple of adults with some not so normals lives and a talent with instruments. Why not make a band out of it? This is just the beginning of a very bumpy and wild musical ride.

1,307 readers have visited The Rebellious since Demented created it.

Introduction

“We tend to forget that happiness doesn't come as a result of getting something we don't have, but rather of recognizing and appreciating what we do have..

Image

It's finally happened. You managed to find a good band, make some friends, and be able to play at a local Club . This is a fresh start for you, as either the drummer, manager, or anyone else in the band. No matter how shitty your life was before you met the band, no matter how much you were broken, you've begun to slowly but surely put yourself back together again .

Anna Blackthorn, the lead singer of the Rebellious found you. She gave you an offer that you just couldn't refuse and managed to get you back on your feet after the nightmare known as your life.

Maybe you went to prison, maybe you were abused as a kid, Anna didn't care. She saw that you had musical talents like no one else and decided to make a band, with you in it of course. This is a chance to actually live and experience life like never before. To eventually practice so that one day it's your name the crowds chanting and asking for an encore.



Welcome to Paradise, better known as L.A.

The Band:

The Lead Singer: Anna Blackthorn. The voice of both an angel and a devil Able to sing as sweet as a bird, and able to scream as loud as a banshee. Though the bands music ranges from whatever songs they make up, or whatever requested of them to play Anna can adjust to whatever situation. She's been known to sometimes jump on the keyboard when one of her band mates is sick or insanely drunk. The Mother Hen of the group.

The Guitarist: Taken

The Drummer: Taken

The Keyboardist: Taken

The Band Manager: This position can be male or female. The one who tries to get them gigs and usually scolds them . This person will more then likely have a lot of jokes pulled on them by the band members. (Reserved)

Other postions could be groupies, a person who is looking to try and get in the band, or anything else you can think of. Just P.M if you have other ideas.

Well hiya! I wanted to make a Band Role play that wasn't based on teenagers in high school. This is going to be a mature role play with a lot of swearing, a lot of drinking, (no sex of course XD), and maybe even some fighting. I figured it might be fun to make a band role play about a group of pretty much messed up people who form a band under the leadership of the lead singer/pianist Anna Blackthorn. Basically your character needs to have some kind of rough and jaded past that has caused them some trouble in their life. Except if you make like a groupie or something that follows the band then feel free to have lived a carefree life!

My character will be Anna Blackthorn, a singer and sometimes pianist who has lived in L. A for some time. She found your character maybe in a bar, or in a club, or even on the streets playing your music and fell in love with it. The bands name is The Rebellious and its very true that we are rebels. However that doesn't mean were doush bags either. Though if you really want your character to be...I won't stop you haha. When I have the whole band the roleplay will be starting out by us meeting outside of the nightclub Pulse.

If anyone has any idead, comments,or concerns send me a PM and I'll answer you back as quickly as I can.

Welcome To The Rebellious!

P.S. IF you want to reserve a spot tell me in OOC thread. :)
ALL CHARACTERS 21 or OVER! :D~

Erik watched as the other band members carried Ellen off to the V.I.P. booth. He hopped off the stage and headed towards the bar. He flagged down the bartender. Erik ordered a shot of Jack and took a look around the bar. The place was packed, and everyone seemed to be enjoying themselves. People kept noticing him and offering a friendly wave, which he politely returned. The bartender came back with his drink. Erik took a quick swallow and felt the heat from the whiskey run down his throat and hit his stomach. He put the empty shotglass on the counter and walked off into the crowd. He looked back at the band and saw that Ellen was starting to wake up.

Erik spent the next few minutes waiting for the band to get ready when he heard the man yell his name again. "Erik! Yo, Erik!" Erik turned around and saw the man walking towards him. "Erik! good to see you. It has been awhile. Remember me?" Erik glared at him. "Yes, Corbin. I do remember you. And I want you to leave. Now." Corbin let out a short, loud laugh. "Now, that isn't the way to talk to an old friend." Erik quickly got up into Corbin's face and began to yell. "You are the reason I wasted eleven years of my life! YOU are the REASON I lost everything!" Corbin took a step back and then swung at Erik. He struck Erik right above the eye, making him stumble backwards. Corbin started walk forward, ready to finish the fight. Erik lashed out with his foot, catching Corbin in the chest, knocking the wind out of him. Erik launched onto Corbin and began to repeatedly punch him. Erik continued to pound on Corbin until the bouncer pulled him off. The massive bouncer scooped up Corbin and quickly deposited him outside, checking to see that Corbin was able to make it home.

The bouncer walked over to Erik, who was sitting on the edge of the stage, a dishrag pressed to his forehead, trying to stop the cut from the ring on Corbin's hand caused. "So Erik, who in the hell was that?" Erik looked up at the bouncer. "Just a very dark part of my past." Erik waved down Anna. "I am fine to keep playing. So, when are we getting back to the show?"

Damon was sitting at a bar stool close to the stage when everything happened. The band was playing a Within Temptation song, but the guitarist fainted, and the drummer got into a fight during the break. Always wanting to help those in need, Damon walked over to the lead singer, introducing himself. Anna was the name, right?
"Hey, you're Anna Blackthorn, the singer?" Damon itched his beard, which was getting a bit too long. "I'm Damon Wedge. I saw your little incidents, and I wanted to help. Need a bass player?"

Anna was overwhelmed by the people in the crowd and both Erik and the guy with the beard that was speaking to her."Ya Erik should be good and here ."She handed him the water and the cloth , patting his hand slightly."Can you please go help Ellen and make sure she is alright?" She gave him a quick smile before turning towards the bearded guy." Yes I am Anna and your a bass player? Well...that would be good actually. That's really all we need left is someone to play bass but, can you handle the songs we do?"

She motioned towards the stage and smiled to show him she wasn't trying to be rude, she was just making sure he was at their level of playing.

"I see no problem with you joining, hell maybe we can even use you if Ellen can't play , that is if you have your bass with ya?"

Evelyn had paled at the events that had occurred, oh how she knew this conclusion before it was set in motion. Setting her empty glass down she made her was over to Erik and reached into her good ole bottomless pit where she kept a first aid kit. This little habit she learned from when she would escape through her window on days that her father would get grossly inebriated, her room of course was on the top floor, quite a fall that was when she would slip. Without waiting for his approval she pulled the disgusting dishrag from him and carefully disinfected his wound. "A dishrag? Really? Do you know how many germs you pressed against your open would? Ugh!", she stoped her little rant after she realized she sounded like a doting mother and that she was probably angering and embarrassing him. Abashedly she stepped away from him after smoothing on some liquid bandage onto his wound, "Dont mind me...I just get worked up easily. Silly little Evelyn, that's me. Guess we should see to Ellen..."

"Oh, I can handle anything," Damon chuckled. "Been playing since I was a little boy. My bass is in my truck, I just have to go get it." Damon ran out to his truck as fast as he could, and sped back inside with it. "It's ready, I always tune it before I go." He played a quick bass line to show Anna his skills. "Well, mind if I join you tonight?"

Jon took Ellen to the VIP area, and laid her on one of the better couches. As far as Jon could tell, Ellen was sleeping it off, though she would have a difficult hangover after she woke up though. Jon looked over to Erik and started to his feet when a fight broke out, but didn't have the chance, as it was over before it began. The bouncer threw the other person out. He gently dabbed Ellen's head with the wet cloth. She reacted to the chilled water but stayed asleep. She would be okay. He went over to his keyboard, and checked it over, nodding to the bass player to show he was fine with the addition.

Erik sat on the stage, nursing his head wound when suddenly the towel he was using was ripped from his hand. Evelyn started in on patching him up before he could even say anything. She finished cleaning him up and took a step back. Erik stood up and smiled at her. "Thanks, Evey. And about Ellen..." He looked over at her. "There isn't much we can do at the moment." He could tell that Evelyn was a little strung out from everything that happened in the past twenty minutes. "Some show, huh Evey?" Erik offered his attempt at humor with a disarming smile. He climbed back on stage, shook hands with the new bassist, and sat down at his drumkit. he checked it quicky, deemed it to be in fine shape, and sat patiently, awaiting Anna's instruction.

"Damon Wedge." Damon introduced himself to the group's drummer as they shook hands. The drummer had a pretty bad head bruise from the fight Damon had recently witnessed. "It's Erik, right?" Damon recalled hearing somebody say the name. As Erik went back to his drums and got them ready for the next song, Damon could see he should give a good performance. Damon walked over to the keyboard player, and began to tune his bass guitar. He plucked his top, low string after plugging it into the amp and making sure it wasn't too loud for tuning.
"Didn't catch your name!" Damon asked before requesting help in tuning. "I'm Damon Wedge. By the way, could you play me an E please?" Damon matched his string's sound to the keyboard's tone, and continued to adjust the three strings left.
After Damon was all tuned for the next song, he played a quiet but quick little bass line to warm up. When ready, he found the singer and asked what song they would play soon.

Re: [OOC] The Rebellious

This rp didnt die, did it? I hope it didnt die.

Re: [OOC] The Rebellious

Hey! Bass guy! Post!

Re: [OOC] The Rebellious

Okay, thanks! I'm so new this is only my second roleplay, so please tell me if I do something weird. And, if you accept me, could you give me a little summary?

Re: [OOC] The Rebellious

I like it, I mean, Within Temptation had more than 4 people in it, i think there were 5 people on instruments with the singer.

Re: [OOC] The Rebellious

Hmmmmmmmmm a Bassist I don't see why not ^^. Just write up a character profile and I'll look it over.

Re: [OOC] The Rebellious

Are you still accepting? Cuz I wanted to be in it as a bassist, though it wasn't on the introduction. :o Everyone needs a bassist! :D I understand if you can't accept me though.

Re: [OOC] The Rebellious

I know, I kinda rescued her.

Re: [OOC] The Rebellious

someone should post :( I can't cuz ellen's completely passed out.

Re: [OOC] The Rebellious

Alright, theres something though, this effect can be caught on camera, so there is proof it really happened, you just need to watch the performance recorded by someone. If we stay playing songs from Within Temptation, I would like to do the Mother Earth song. the video for that is truly amazing, and though your guy does not actually see it, (Maybe we could work it so that he sees it gradually, flickers here and there. Meaning, the longer the band stays together, the more of the effect he can see.) everyone else can see it on him. We could work it like this for the other band members as well, so im not just thrusting it on you guys. my guy can feel and see them, cause this happens every time he plays, he still cant figure out why it does.

Re: [OOC] The Rebellious

Well, CF, I think my guy should be the odd man out. I was thinking, that because of his past with drug abuse and other factors from his past, he cannot see the projections. Literally. So, the whole band could be talking about it, and my character would not know what they were talking about. It could lead to some rather humorous moments, I think.

Re: [OOC] The Rebellious

Sure go ahead Gentle just make a char and I can approve it :D

Re: [OOC] The Rebellious

Oh Oh Oh, could I reserve a spot for a Groupie? :D

Re: [OOC] The Rebellious

Well, like there are unexplained forces in our world, there are unexplained forces in any realistic settings.

Re: [OOC] The Rebellious

It's no biggy but it seemed strange to me since I thought this was a realistic rp, but no it doesn't bother me. :3

Re: [OOC] The Rebellious

you can choose to have your character have no reaction to it, MH, but can I ask if you can, i dont know, maybe incorperate it into say, a conversation maybe, after the show, when the bands finished playing, and we are all relaxing at the bar? maybe ask my guy about it? As I said, it doesnt have as profound an effect on those he plays with, though they see it, they arent as affected by it as the audience is, who thanks to the effect, are riveted to the band, as they go about what they usually do.

Re: [OOC] The Rebellious

It doesn't bother me too much. I don't mind good visual effects, but it just seemed a little strange to me, is all. As long as I can choose if my character "sees" these things or not, it doesn't really bother me. It mostly depends on the others.

Re: [OOC] The Rebellious

I kind of like it :3 It'd be interesting, that's for sure. But, you know, it might take some of the lime light away from Ellen and her poor calloused fingers :(

Re: [OOC] The Rebellious

Right, ill wait for their input. I think I might go more indepth on this later in the rp, im going to need to think about this.

Re: [OOC] The Rebellious

Welll hmm I like the idea of it. Anna's kind of in her own world right now XD so pretty sure she isn't going to notice too much haha. But if it bothers other people then I would reccomend changing it. We can see how Syn and Wing think about it first.

Re: [OOC] The Rebellious

that's the thing, its only a visual, it does nothing physical. For some reason, when my character plays, as i have said in earlier posts, there's a weird visual effect that mesmerizes most of the audience. it doesn't effect the others who play with him, though they too can see it. If i were to give it scientifically, his playing triggers something in a person's psyche and allows them to actually feel what hes playing, they can see it, smell it, etc. It doesn't do anything else. Its the concept that music can bridge the gap to a persons sense's, when you hear that one song that seems to depict the exact feeling you are experiencing at that moment? you are less likely to forget it. Im only taking it a step further, and letting it activate to actually really affect the other sense. this only happens when he plays see, and not any other time. Can we see what Demented thinks of this first? Demented, whats your input to this?
