Small towns usually have their secrets. -------- (OOC is here :P ) -------- Just below the calm, homely surface is always a darker side. Perhaps not all of the townspeople know of it, but it’s always there. In the buildings. In the trees. In the soil itself. It waits for the right time to rear its head, but it will, in time. I can promise you that much – you will See it, and when you do, you’ll suddenly be a great deal more interested in the town's history. Of course, you won’t See it right away. You’ll hear of it first, Warnings not to go out in the rain, or snow, without protection. The stories in the figures in bright red hoods. The stories of massacres and the phantoms that lurk under the shadows of the rainfall, wraiths with broken bodies, wailing in pain and begging for death.
Many of the townspeople have gone and vanished out of thin air, leaving a lingering shadow creeping further into town. The scattered inhabitants carry on living a normal life, ignoring the malicious writhing evil on their doorsteps. You, fair roleplayer will be one of these people, be it a traveler, tourist or townsfolk.

YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED
Welcome to Glen's Cove!
What is Glen's Cove? Glen's Cove is a roleplay that is inspired from the game Deadly Premonition and the Television show Twin Peaks. I seek to create a hub for roleplayers interested in mystery and intrigue in a setting that is both - well, mysterious and intriguing. Below are several locations which are whereabouts to do specific actions, e.g: "Malcolm visits the Do or Dine! diner, he sighs as he sits down in a booth." I like to think of this weird little roleplay as a twist on tomodachi life :P, there are locations set and characters that will interact in them and the characters set in that location.
--- Location and Settings Glen's Cove is a town that lies in between the Greenvale Forest Park and the Mayberry lake. The town is named so, because it is home to the GlenFord Cove. Glen's Cove is in Washington and is a very small, quaint, but rather charming little town.
Do or Dine! - (Local Diner)
Owned and managed by Randy Fitzberg, he is a very creative and practical guy, he is very people oriented and can bring out the best in other people, but is quite self critical sometimes. This little diner serves as the primary place for people to meet and to eat (Not to meet and eat people)!
A Salt and Battery - (English style Chip-Shop)
Owned run by Phillipa Greene, she lacks any realistic goals and because of this, she is lazy and drinks alcohol most of the time. She is rather outgoing and is able to inspire and motivate others. The little Chip Shop acts like a little fast food joint, perfect for having a quick bite or stuffing your face in with greasy food!
The Drunken Ducks - (English style Pub)
Owned and run by Thomas and Fischer Smith, these twins are both easily insightful, ambitious and love to be the center of attention. They are also both quite poor at being practical and sometimes lack empathy. This little English style pub is a great place to have a few pints of lager and to play darts or pool with a friend or two!
Phillip's FillUps - (Gas Station)
Owned and run by Phillip Greene, he is Phillipa Greene's brother and is usually quite overly dramatic and very eccentric, he is rather fussy and sometimes requires time alone. This little gas station has the friendliest service and is great to buy stuff on the go!
Market Ba$ket - (Grocery store)
Owned and run by Rajeev Chopra, he is very quiet and occasionally likes to engage in small talk with his customers. He is quite happy with the life he is living at the moment but feels like there's always space to improve. This little grocery shop is the main place to buy your much needed groceries for a price that any other shops can't beat!
The Second Amendment - (Gun store)
Owned and run by Ricardo Del Matos, he is very loud mouthed, and likes to please himself before others, he is usually one sided but oddly highly observant and can be a team player when needed. This gun store is the best if you're looking for a selection of guns and a stockpile of ammo to buy!
Great Mountain Yard hotel - (Hotel)
Owned and managed by Rita Oldkins, she is very kind and helpful but independent, unconventional and despises routine.She's also very laid back and is very adaptable. This little hotel is perfect if you want luxury, the feeling of a warm shelter and a plate full of food at the dining hall!
Glen's Cove General Health clinic - (Medical Facility)
Government owned building; this little Clinic has a wonderful staff which are trained to tend wounds and give prescription drugs if needed!
Sheriff's Department - (Law)
Government owned building; this little sheriff's department has trained officers which look over the little town and arrive to calls of help! The Staff comprises of: Sheriff Terry Mills, Deputy Sheriff Brandon Harrison, Receptionist Morgana Woody-Anne.
Graveyard - (Sights)
Owned and managed by Alistair Higgins, he is very misunderstood and because of that he is quite remorseless, insensitive and extremely critical. He is also surprisingly artistic, logical and always thinks ahead. This little graveyard neighbors the GlenFord's cove and has a lovely mood to stroll through!
Greenvale forest park and GlenFord's Cove
The forest park is wonderful to have a stroll through and have a hike to see the wonderful scenery. The GlenFord's cove is a sight to see, it has a narrow beach with some lovely little interconnecting caves to walk through, perfect for spelunking!
--- The Occurrences Throughout Glen's Cove there have been varied paranormal disturbances and weird phenomenons. There are two types of occurrences: the Unsound, and the Night walkers The Unsound: The Unsound are also known as Shadows, Demons or Phantoms. These Shadows; These fiends have human forms but can be hugely disfigured. These Shadows are called so because they are the echoes of deaths from the past.
Night walkers: This mysterious phenomenon occurs at night. Humanoid figures creep into town from the Greenvale forest park and roam the night, loitering on the streets and bringing misfortune and harm to those who it encounters..
I want to know what you think; I've revamped the interest check and I' totally looking forward to hearing back from the lovely roleplayer guild community. :) (Sorry for the plethora of hider/spoiler boxes! I thought it was the best way to keep information under a specific heading. :P)
Hey there! Sorry for the Über long wait and stuff. I had to get a few things done for college and all, but I really looked forward to this roleplay coming to life. :) I do hope you are still interested, I should be able to revive this splendid roleplay if some people are still interested.
I'm glad that people are still interested, I'll make the OOC very soon. In my absence I've actually started to write a screenplay relating to Glen's Cove. :P
