Introduction
A Pin-up Affair.
Nicolette Mar'Vonne is an up and coming movie & Pinup star in 1955's bustling New York City/Hollywood.
She appears to be the sweetest of girls, the picture of perfection.........and she has just become engaged to the equally famous, and equally "sweet" movie star, 22 year old Johnathon Taylor.
You're hard-pressed to go more than a week without hearing something about "America's Couple" on either the radio, or TV.........and young couples in high school and college all around the nation dream to be as perfect as Johnathon and Nicolette appear to be..............................but nothing is ever as swell as it seems, in Tinseltown.
This RP is going to be a 1x1 set in the 1950's, about a young starlet carrying on an affair with her personal bodyguard.........that of course will lead to Drama[on whatever level we can think of! =P].
I'll be taking the role of Nicolette, and i'd REALLY prefer a guy take the role of the bodyguard instead of a girl, but i do realize the ratio of girls to guys on here is like a million to one LOL, so i'd be willing to accept girls after a few days of looking if no guys step up. =P
I figured Johnathon would be a character controlled by me mostly, but i don't care if the person i RP wants to control Johnathon too...........i guess he'd be more of a NPC then.
** If you're not too knowledgeable on 50's Trends, fashion, or TV/Radio, use google............it has everything on it! **[rofl =P]

*** I just posted in the "Roleplayers Wanted" forum, and i'd like to add my post there, here, so you can read a little more about what i had in plan for the bodyguard role (skip to the rules and bypass everything in italics below if you already read my forum post)::
Hey!
I'm looking for someone to fill the male role in my RP A Pin-up Affair.
A Pin-up Affair. is set in 1955, and is about a Pin-Up starlet carrying on a heavy affair with her bodyguard.
I'm gonna take the role of the starlet, and i'm looking for someone to take the role of the bodyguard. I'd REALLY prefer a male to play the role, who's 15+ years old.......and you'd have to be the more persistent of the two . My character is going to feel guilty after the first encounter, and while yours might too, you're going to have to be able to move past it better than her, and wind up scheming or plotting for the second encounter to happen.
I was thinking at first the guard would just be in it for the physicality......but would quickly start falling for her, and vice-versa.
I don't want this to just be some boring romance/affair RP..........i'm all about plot twist, crazy turns, and drama..........so someone could find out, black mail the guard, or both of them...........or the guard could have a seedy history, like he's into the drug world or weapons trade game, and someone in that realm finds out about the affair and threatens the guard and/or my character.....and/or kidnaps my character, or ETC! We can talk all of this out in time in the OOC, i just wanted to make clear that this isn't going to be a boring flat love story, i'd like it to be fun and thrilling!
So, if interested, please visit the page for A Pin-up Affair., read the introduction/rules, and then create a CS!
[also, let me know via the OOC that you're submitting a CS, just so i know to expect one from ya! xD].

RULES
++ This WILL be a mature RP, with mature situations......so you have to be able to handle that.[people 15 year olds or older please] ++
++ The public writing can never get TOO overly sexual because that's not allowed here......so "fade to black"'s or "time jump"'s will be used during any graphic parts of the RP.........while hugging, non-graphic touching, and kissing is allowed to be posted. ++
++ NO ANIME PICTURES..........that just wouldn't make sense for this RP, now would it? ++
++ PLEASE BE HONEST WITH YOURSELF HERE, are you the type that is not into building characters up, so gets bored with an RP after a week or two, and then decides not to log on or reply anymore? If so, PLEASE bypass this RP. While i understand not being able to post every single day, seeing as how i'm a busy/working college gal myself, i don't understand erratic RPers who just disappear from an RP after a week or so......i LOATHE that! =( ++
++ I like to use the OOC to discuss things! It's not a requirement or anything, but it would be awesome to find a person who's into discussing new things, crazy plot twists, and other fun stuff like that in the OOC area.........i think it's more fun when two RPers get to know one another and chat a bit out of character instead of JUST in character most of the times, ya know? Makes the whole process more enjoyable. =D ++
++ I don't want to RP this in a PM or outside the website............so please don't ask. The only thing i'd be willing to RP in PM's, are sex-scenes, if you'd wish to.[idc, lol] ++
++ You have to be a good writer, who's proficient in English. No, you don't have to be one of those overly-detailed people who spend five paragraphs telling you how a flower just moved in the breeze.......i'd actually prefer if you weren't.......and typing as fast as i do, I definitely understand typos, i make them ALL the time.......but no ebonics, English that isn't up to first-language standards, or posts void of even basic detail. Also, i like longer posts........it doesn't have to be super-long, but i can't stand people who constantly post 3-4 sentence entries.++

Here's the Character Sheet:
Here's the Character Sheet:
- Code: Select all
[b]Name:[/b]
[b]Age:[/b] (22-28)
[b]Status:[/b] (if you wish to make the bodyguard involved with someone, go ahead......if not, just put single here. But he can't be married.....just, dating or engaged.)
[b]Employment/Career:[/b] (You'll be working for a company, and won't be the only guard for Johnathon and Nicolette......i'm thinking there will be four, from the same company........you'll just be the one who gets assigned to Nicolette personally...........we can discuss how/why, in OOC.)
[b]Personality:[/b] (a few sentences, or a small paragraph, at the least please.)
[b]Appearance:[/b] (I'm looking for the handsome but slightly messy look..........here are a few examples of what i mean:

http://www.sheclick.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/Orlando-Bloom-Fashion-Style-520x532.jpg
I figured it would be interested to have a guy w/ long hair who might be looked down on a little by most of the celebs/snobs since he doesn't appear as "clean shaven" as all the rest of them........and i also thought someone would could pass as Native American/hispanic would be cool, simply because interracial dating was seriously taboo back then, so that would make the whole story more interesting. Feel free to use one of those guys i posted, but if you know someone you want to use that is close to what i'm going for, feel free to use them. And you can just post the picture, or be extra-descriptive underneath your photo, i don't mind.........but the photo IS a requirement.)
[b]History/Background:[/b] (Have at it! I usually like long or uniquely-interesting stuff here, but you can make it short and boring if you wish, since the history can always just come out in the RP ya know? Now i'm not sure if we should start the RP off with your character already being assigned to Nicolette, or not. But that is something we can talk about OOC!)

I may well be interested in taking the role of the bodyguard, since my last one-on-one RP collapsed recently with the spontaneous disappearance of my RPing partner.
Anyway, not sure what else to say, so... I'm here!
