Introduction
Through a winding path, in the middle of the woods, there's the cutest little house you ever did see.
Bright pink walls and narrow halls; seems to be built for a doll or three
It's stain-glass windows and wide open door are placed where it's eyes and mouth should be.
I try to rewind, but a chill runs my spine as I realize i'm no longer free.
For it's wide open door is pulling me in as it's stain glass windows stare back at me.
You somehow find your way in to the small, pink house. You can choose to remember how you got in there, or you can choose to forget. The fact is, you're in...and there's no getting out. Many before you have attempted to escape, and the majority of them failed. The small amount that did not fail were the ones who were able to solve the puzzle, complete the mystery and were set free. However, those do not remember what happened to them while they were in possesion of the house, so you could very well be one of them and not even know it. The rules are simple: Stay alive. Solve the puzzle and above all, don't trust ANYONE. Not even yourself...
This is more then just a typical haunted house, this is an asylum. Everything and anything is possible here. This house is a master mind. It takes control of your fears and runs with them, so becareful where you step because your biggest fear can be hiding behind any given door.
Okay, enough of that. To make sure you're clear on what's going on in the Roleplay. There's a puzzle you have to solve in order to be able to leave the house. You can make up the clues, but there's one clue that's certain and very important. I'll drop hints (as my character) here and there to take you in the right direction, but how you find it is entirely up to you. The scary things that happen inside the house are based on the fears of the people in it. As long as you base mostly everything off of those fears, you can make anything happen. Just don't kill anymone please! Not yet anyway... and be careful, not everything you see is real.
Here's the character outline (I'm accepting up to 8 characters. We don't want the house getting too full)
Name:
Nickname(s):
Age:
Gender:
Orientation:
Appearance: (You can either describe, use a picture, or both)
Special skills: (Remember, you are still human)
Personality:
Phobia: (WHat happens inside the house is centered around this, so you do have to have one. Make it a good one!)
The most valueable thing in the world to you is:
That's it! Have fun in there ;)
Taking place in...
The dollhouse our primary setting
You can step inside, but you can be sure that you're not stepping back out.

Suddenly, out of the corner of her eye she catches a glimpse of a a little pink house hidden within the trees. She hessitated a minute then walked towards it, but soon bakctracked when a sick feeling played at the pit of her stomach. She got back on the trail and kept walking, still lost in thought. She looked around to make sure she wasn't lost, and to her surprise she saw the little pink house yet again. "What the...?" she looked behind her, thinking she had gone in circles but the path had no turns in it. She contemplated the idea of going back, but decided to explore what was in the little house instead. She inched closer untill she reached the door. Then, filled with curiousity, she opened it and stepped inside.

She leaned against a spry tree trunk, turning her gaze to the tree tops. God, it's so dense... She wiped at her shoulders, glanced around, and shivered. She wasn't alert and this place was giving her the heebie-jeebies. Man, science hated her. From genetics and chromosomes to her basic bodily functions. Her eyes darted around the forest until they landed on a very, very out of place object. A pink object, which normally would have put it out of place with just that, but it was a doll house. "A doll house... In the forest," her words came out slowly, pushed by her puzzled tongue. She licked her lips, chewed them, then parted them for a sigh of confusion. Go towards the creeptasticly girly doll house, or continue to wander around in the even more disturbing woods? Decisions, decisions... Koda crept closer and tapped the door open.
Glancing furtively before stepping inside, she reminded herself, It was either a girl's toy or a scary forest. You chose the toy.

Stefan walked through the forest, and looked around. "How did I get lost?" he asked himself, sure he was going the right way a minute ago. "Is that a doll house?" he asked, raising his brow as he crept toward it. What is this doing out here? He then looked at it somemore, and then pushed on the door. "I don't know. Maybe I should just turn back" he whispered, pulling his hand away. His curiousness got the best of him, and soon he stepped into the little house without looking back.

Lita watched him, and smiled. At least I'm not alone; with a creep. She walked behind him, and heard other noises. Are there other people here!? She then got closer to Stefan, and held on to his arm.

And she did come across something, a house that could be described as 'doll like' that stood out like a sore thumb in the foreboding forest. Why a house that looked like it belonged in a Barbie's Dream House playset was all the way out here was another question she couldn't answer, ... Actually, maybe it's for the best, She thought as she made her way to the house, figuring that someone who lived here might help her to get out of here. Once she was on the front porch she knocked and waited. No answer. So she knocked again, her mind picking apart the tacky details of the house only served to annoy her further, the fact that there was still no answer didn't help, "Helllloooo, anyone here?" She called, taking a peek in the windows, only to see that the curtains were drawn, "Gaaah," she said in frustration. She looked at the door, should she...? Well, maybe they need help, She thought, though it was obviously an excuse to not have to be stuck out here. So against some of her better judgement, she touched the doorknob and turned it, being half-surprised about it being unlocked. The other half of her was wondering if this was some kind of warning. She finally went inside. She was sure that even Barbie would be disgusted by how much pink there was. She looked behind her when there was sudden noise, the door shutting itself. And as she expected, there was the cliche of it not opening again, "Great..." She muttered.

Where was he? Julian took in his surroundings, a small room. A study perhaps. Rows of books, a desk and a small sitting area comprised the room he was currently standing in. The only clear thought running through the kid's mind was how there were people somewhere beyond these four walls. Someone who could tell him how in the hell he'd gotten there in the first place. The moment Julian tried to remember how he'd come to be in this place his memory fogged up. As if his mind was full of white plumes of smoke.
Sighing loudly he rose to his feet. Shrugging into his jacket he looked at the heavy wooden door. Wondering what could lay beyond. Salvation, perhaps some kind of explanation if he was lucky. Slowly Julian pushed open the door, at least enough to poke his shaggy head through.
"Hello? Anyone out here? I think I might be lost." He called out hopefully. If only Julian could be sure that whoever asnwered his questions would be friendly and not complete homicidal maniacs.

"Hey, are you okay?" Julian asked, holding his hands up to show the obviously frightened girl he was no threat. "Uh, sorry if this is your place, but I just woke up and I have no idea where I'm at or how I got here."All of this came tumbling out of the teenager's mouth as he tried to explain himself. Slowly lowering his arms he tentatively reached out shake her hand. "I'm Julian by the way."

"Well seeing as you and I are in the same boat so to speak, not knowing where we are and all, how bout we team up?" Julian asked expectantly, lifting his eyebrows and assuming what he could only hope was a pathetic, pleading face. "Maybe we could take a look around, find a way out. I mean if we ran into someone not as friendly as we are it'd probably be better to have two heads than one, right?"

Taking a deep breath he nooded at the rather pretty acquaintance he'd just met and stepped toward the door. "Looks like the coast is clear but in all honesty I'm not sure if that's a good thing or a bad thing." Silently Julian opened the door and stepped into the hallway. "Now then, which way?" He asked as lightheartedly as he could. There wasn't any reason to panic yet, was there? They were just plopped in some random house with no knowledge of why or when or how. Not scary in the slightest.

Turning his dark head in either direction he tried to listen for any sound, something anything. Julian was sure he'd heard more than just Rein wandering through this strange house. Maybe if they could find others someone would have some answers. Or the other people wandering around could be incredibly angry homeowners.
"This way I suppose." Julian said as he began to lead the way down the dark hallway. it was unbearably silent and the usually raucous boy didn't think he could stand another minute of it. "So, Rein, what brings you to a place like this?" Julian winced as soon as he said it. "Sorry, I'm nervous, that was stupid." He apologized turning a bright shade of red. "It's just so quiet."

"So glad I didn't wake up in there, frightening." Julian mumbled as he feigned a shiver of revulsion. Realizing that Rein might be retreating because of some kind of embarrassment the boy smiled reassuringly at his companion. "That's good that you can remember something, anything might be useful, Rein. At this stage in the game nothing is stupid."
Giving the pink room another glance around he turned to continue down the hallway his thoughts turned inward as he tried to piece together his last memories. "I think I was at home." A look of slight confusion crossed his face. How could he have gotten from home to here?
