Introduction
Little kids think we got the good life of high school house parties and staying out late. Adults think don't remember what it's like and thinks the worst thing to happen to us is to get our phones taken away by the teacher or getting more than one classes homework assignments. But we know what it's like. Not only do we have to deal with school work, we got to deal with drama too. A lot of teenagers deal with different, and the same, drama. Our drama goes from first time sex with our boyfriend or girlfriend to our sexual orientation to our parents pressuring us. That's what this Roleplay is about. It's about the real life of an American Teenager. Of course that can't be it. So, what's the catch?
Our Story
This Roleplay takes place over the Sumer the place where all of our characters have Sumer jobs so, unless your character is taking Sumer school or reverences something about school, our characters should not be in a school!
Our story takes place in Chicago, Illinois. Our character (list below) all works at Navy Pier. A big-small pier that has a mall, an IMAX Theater, a mall like building full of various fast food places (ex. McDonalds, Panda Express, Donkin Donuts, Starbucks, ect.), a green house, a House Of Mirrors, a ferris wheel, various speed boat rides, various small cruises, and various other small things along the dock. Now, to get you started on your characters, I decided to create little hints and labels for each character, but I shall leave the actual creation up to you.
The Street/Ghetto Girl: TAKEN BY ME - IAmAlien
The Street/Ghetto Girl is from the poorer ghetto part of the Chicagoan area. She's an in-the-closet bisexual (at least at the beginning of the RP). She's fines a like of interest in the White Hoodlum/Gangster, Gamer Chick, and Richie Guurl. Friends with (so far) the White Hoodlum/Gangster Dude.
The White Hoodlum/Gangster Dude: TAKEN BY ME -IAmAlien
The White Hoodlum/Gangster Dude is from the more violence and gang run area of Chicago. He's straight. Has a like of interest in the Street/Ghetto Girl, the Richie Chick, and the Smart Asian. Friends with (so far) the Richie Chick, Street/Ghetto Girl, Black Gangsta.
The Gamer Chick: TAKEN BY Echo_Rose
The Gamer Chick is from the suburbs outside of Chicago (ex suburban areas for character are Crete, Piotone, Steger, Beacher, Monee, ect). She is an in-the-closet homosexual (gay/lesbian) (at least at the beginning of the RP). She has a like of interest in the Street/Ghetto Girl, Richie Gurl. Friends with (so far) the Nerdy Guy, White Hoodlum/Ghetto Dude, Black Gangsta, Football Play (one in suburbs), Artsy Chick.
What I Would PreferI would prefer this character have a girly scene appearance with the colorful puffy hair and tight clothes. YOU DO NOT NEED TO FOLLOW THIS IT'S JUST A SUGGESTION!
The Richie Gurl: TAKEN BY BOO!
The Richie Gurl is from one of the rich communities with the big fancy houses. She's straight but questioning. Has a like of interest the White Hoodlum/Gangster Dude, small like of interest in the Street/Ghetto Girl. Friends with (so far) the White Hoodlum/Gangster Dude, Football Player, and Smart Asian.
Smart Asian: OPEN(boy) GIRL TAKEN BY MissBrightside_ / BOY OPEN
I don't really have an idea for the smart Asian. I guess there can be two smart Asians, a boy and a girl, since the Hoodlum/Gangster Dude has a like of interest in a Smart Asian. So you get to be a little more creative here.
Black Gangsta: TAKEN BY Geekly
Again, don't really have an idea for this guy. Their friends with (so far) The White Hoodlum/Gangster Dude and Gamer Chick, so they're from the same place. He's also a playa' so LADIES GOTTA WATCH THEY ASSES!! XD (me couldn't help it) Again, you get to be a little creative.
Nerdy/Geeky Guy: TAKEN BY Banshee
Form Chicago Heights. He's gay. Like of interest in Emo Guy, Football Player, and Black Gangsta. Friends with (so far) The Gamer Chick.
Football Player: RICH AREA - OPEN / SUBURBS - OPEN
One is from the rich area and one can come from suburbs. Can be creative here too. One from suburbs is friends with Gamer Chick and Artsy Chick.
The Artsy Chick: TAKEN BY PhychicBastard
The Artsy Chick is from the suburbs. She's straight. She has a like of interest in the Football Player (one from suburbs). She is friends (so far) with the Gamer Chick, Football Player (from suburbs).
The Emo Kid: TAKEN BY Sonohra
You get to be a little creative with this character.
The Exchange Student: TAKEN BY Luxe
The Exchange Student is a girl that came from Astralia! (More To Be Added About This Character)
Any suggestions for a different character just PM me.
Character Sheet | All Must Be Filled out CORRECTLY or no acceptation! | Does not have to be super long as long as I get the general idea. If you want it long, make it long.
NAME: (Full Name)
NICKNAME: (if they don't have one put "Doesn't Have One" or something like that)
AGE: (Between 16 - 19 unless you wish to make a teacher/parent then between 29 - _)
ROLE: (Ex. The Street/Ghetto Girl, The White Hoodlum/Gangster Dude, The Richie Gurl, ect,) (If teacher/parent, put "Teacher" or "Parent") (If parent, explain of whom)
APPEARANCE: (MUST HAVE PICTURE) (CANNOT BE ANIME) (No links, use that ---> [img]URL%20HERE[/img] (make sure you put the URL/website address to picture where it says URL HERE)
PERSONALITY: (Short description of how they act) (can be just three personality traits like motherly, tough, rough, rude, ect,)
Crushes: (can put from description on home screen) (may add more crushes of the NPC type)
Friends: (can put from description on home screen) (may add more of the NPC type)
History: (brief history of character) (must include family and why they have a job a Navy Pier and what their job is) (characters may work in the same place ex a few can work at the IMAX Theater while others can work at a gift shop in the mall or McDonalds)(may include how your character meant another character in the RP that you can discuss in OOC Forum)
Okay, that's it! I worked very hard on this RP, so I want to see if I can make this thing run for at least a month. My sister, when she was on here, had a really good RP that was active for about 2 in a half to 3 months. Lets see if this can be as successful as hers was! FOR-NAROLEPLAY!
RULES:
Sorry, but for every great Roleplay, there is order in the rules.
1. No Godmoding yet we don't really fight each other in this type, but I wouldn't know that just yet.
2. Cursing is allowed as long as there's not a curse word in every sentence. (I allow cursing because I believe that curse words are just that. Words. No matter what they mean. And we're all gonna end up cursing no matter what our fucking parents do!)
3. No Sex. I understand I said something about first time sex in the intro, but I don't want to read that shit on this. You can say you and a NPC or an other character had sex if its okay with the owner of here say character, but I don't want details.
4. Fighting. It happens a lot between teenagers, so I'll allow it as long as nobody takes it personally. Like, I can imagine one of the football players bullying the nerdy kid or the street/ghetto girl, but you need to make sure the characters owner isn't taking it personally.
5. Join the role play. Join it now. I may add more rules later. Until then, have fun with the four easy rules to follow! :D Yay!!

Daniel held onto his bag as he almost had it dragging on the ground on his way to the pier. As he headed onto the pier, he swung the bag onto his shoulder and headed to work. He looked around, watching as people lived on their normal lives. Their perfect happy lives. He looked in front of him to see Chase. Daniel wanted to avoid the kid, but he was standing in the only way to work. Dan swore under his breath and made his way over, hoping to be ignored. Or maybe... Daniel will actually say something today.

Danny, smiling, watched as the Gang got off the train. It was odd. The gang acted like total jack-asses and jerks. When in reality, like Evie had said, they'd save the life of their own. Even if they weren't officially part of the gang. Hearing what Evie had said, Danny got a half-shocked, half-confused look on her face. She never heard of the gang saving anyone before, only injuring. Maybe even killing. But never saving. That's what Danny didn't understand. She didn't get that the gang is always looking out for one another, and even though Danny and Evie aren't officially part of the gang, their family to them. So, the gang takes it upon themselves to protect Danny and Evie, and a few others, at any cost. Even if that means losing the life of one of the guys.
"Oh, nothing." Danny said after realizing what she said and hearing what Evie asked about it. Then Danny heard Evie ask what she likes to eat. Danny smiled and almost laughed after thinking in her mind the answer to that question. What ever I can get my hands on that's edible. It was the sad truth about being poor, that's what Danny was. She wasn't just in the lower-middle class of America, she was far below the middle class of Chicago, Illinois, United States, North America. Instead of trying to explain the sad truth to Evie, Danny simply shrugged slightly, which was actually hard to do considering her and Evie were leaning on each other. But Danny managed to do it. "So, how'd'aye save yo' life?" Danny asked in a slow quiet voice.
Back at Navy Pier, Chase was leaning against the side of one of the many buildings along the Pier, watching the lake. The lake looked so wild. The waves were making all the boats splash back and forth in the water, causing more waves to splash up onto the board walk. It was getting windy and starting to rain more. "I hate the goddamn wind." Chase said quietly to himself. He fixed his hood on his head as it kept flying back from the wind. He hated the wind. Alway have, always will. It messed everything up, from when he was little and played baseball to today when he plays basketball with the gang or Ty. He just hated it so much, almost as much as Danny who clams it messes her hair up. Chase doesn't really need to care about that considering he's basically bald with just his brown scruff on his head that he calls hair. Looking around, Chase saw Daniel. The only reason he remembered him was because Daniel and Danny's name is the same, obviously except Danny goes by Danny and Daniel goes by Daniel or Dan. Very complicated when they're around each other. Anyways, Chase watched as Daniel seemed to be trying to avoid him. Chase, feeling the need to talk to someone and stop being antisocial, yelled and wave over to Daniel. "Aye! Yo! Daniel! Hey, man, some fucked up weather we're havin' 'round here, ain't it?" Chase practically face palmed himself for asking this guy about the weather. What the fuck, Chase! Nice way to start the goddamn conversation talkin' 'bout some damn weatha'! Ain't no foo' wanna talk 'bout no weatha', man! Chase thought, mentally scolding himself while looking around as he came and stood next to Daniel.

On the Pier, Chase was getting a little pissed off. He hated when people don't talk much. "Yeah. So, man, what'chu been up to? You ain't on no drugs or nothin', are ya', man?" Chase asked Daniel as he watched two girls walk by. Acting the way he does around the gang, Chase watched the girls walk by them, watching their asses as they walked away sucking on his teeth a couple times like he was calling a cat over. The girls turned around and wrinkled their noses at Chase in disgust. One of them even called him a pervert. "Maybe I am, mama, maybe I am." Chase said quietly to the girls comment with a smirk looking the girl that called him a pervert up and down. Once they were gone, Chase let out a laugh, finding it very funny how the girls reacted, he then turned his attention back to Daniel.
