I'd like to grab the archaeologist, will have the profile submitted soon. Also, what year is it in the RP? (I'm hoping the 1920s noir vibe from CoC is staying.)

Alright, I'll save that for you. Originally I was going to make it modern day, for the sake of making it easy for everyone to know what sort of tech is available, but if there's a demand for something more 20s or 40s, I'd be happy to oblige

I'd love to join, as perhaps a photographer along with the documentary crew or maybe a historian, but I'm wondering if you could decide on the time period thing before hand though so I know what kind of character to create. If it was the 20's or 40's I'd have to create a much different kind of woman than I would if it was a modern chick xD
I'm cool either way, would miss modern technology though! lol :) But I do love vintage/noir things. :]

One other question, is the majority of the RP going to be about to studying the crypt/door in a castle, or is this crypt/door going to lead somewhere or to something?? *just curious if there's a plot past studying the door*


Thanks for reading! xD

Well, after some thought, I did away with an actual journalism crew, but a photographer that is specifically part of the investigation crew is more than acceptable. I guess since people seem to like the more noir setting usually used for these sort of stories, I'll settle on 1940s for the sake of things.

There is a plotline that generally goes up to opening the door and a bit past it, and I do have some story ideas for even beyond that, but I figure that I'd cross that bridge when I got to it. After all, want to make sure there's interest before going on.

So did you want to be the photographer or the historian, or some combination of the two (that's allowed, of course).

Okay! Well that all sounds good to me! :3
I'd love to make a character that's a historian & photographer for a popular magazine like TIME! xD

I'm gonna go lay down for a few hours but when I wake up I'll submit a CS! :3

@Lovebird: I don't see why not, in the 40s you would see a lot more males anyways, so its perfectly fine.

@~Lonesome Butterfly~: I like your character o3o

Ah! Well, I seem a little late to the party. I'm in school right now and about to go to class, but before I do, I was hoping to lay my chips down on The Anthropologist's spot and try to make a character when I get back.

Sure thing, Walt. I'd like to note that the lead professor is also an anthropologist, so you'll have a bit in common.

Erik, I'm afraid the soldier is reserved as indicated, however you may suggest your own role.

Well, if you can explain why there's a chaplain there, then sure. The person playing the soldier is actually coming as part of the crew that will be opening/removing the door, so he has a reason to be there.

Aaaaaand submitted. Now, I did work him out pretty quickly, so if you see any errors, have any questions, critiques or suggestions, I'll be glad to hear them. Also, Erik, I hope you find reason, because I really think a chaplain would be a good addition to the crew. (Psst. They have been known to be added to crews for the militairy and universities and all kinds of things. Just, you know, just saying. THERE IS A WAY!)

Omg! *so giddy* from all these amazing characters!!! xD
Nice to see another female role too, <3 her personality/background!! :P'



EDIT:: Oh! I was wondering, will we all be in the same carriage as we approach the castle, or will we have our own separate entrances?? Thanks! ^_^
(ooo, or perhaps women in one men in another? lol)

Originally I was going to have there be a carriage up from the village below to the castle. I sorta set the scene up, but its not nailed down at this moment.

Perhaps the chaplain is a religious historian who's there because of something about the crypt? He would assume it's a Catholic/Christian crypt. Or maybe he's there by request of one of the other academics who's a Catholic?

Perhaps he's a member of the Pontifical Academy of Archaeology, sent to investigate the site in general. Or perhaps he is still in studying, and is a student? Either way, it kinda gives you a way in. So rather assuming that the crypt (you guys don't actually know what it is, that's just what the owner of the castle thinks it is) is Catholic, its an investigation to see if is or is not Catholic in nature.
