Welcome to Haven, an island sanctuary for sick and injured animals. Here they are cared for until they are strong enough to be released back into the wild. Given as a gift by a kind-hearted millionaire to a young conservationalist, the owner has dedicated the island and the surrounding reef as a permanent rescue and rehabilitation facility.


While the buildings look rather simple, the equipment inside is the best money can buy, courtesy of the same woman who donated the island. Each holding area for the animals is sectioned off areas of the ocean and beach, using natural sea water and rocks and corals for atmosphere.
The main vet office, the bungalows for the employees, the storage warehouse, the dock, the rescue boat and the radio tower, are all made from natural recyclable materials and built into the landscape. Very little of the island's topography was disturbed in the construction.

The island itself is fairly isolated, supplies coming by sea plane from a larger more developed island some miles away. People will sometimes bring animals to the facility or more often will radio the facility with reports of an injured or ill animal. The island is open for people to visit, but for day trips only and they must get permission.

For a time things were going well. But now a threat looms on the horizon in the form of a business mogul who wants the island for their own selfish purposes. With threats, intimidation, sabotage, storms, loss of supplies and other problems, can the facility survive to continue its mission : to give animals a second chance at life?

~~~~~~~~~~~

This rp will be a small group with heavy focus on character development.
I will be keeping track of the animals at the facility and keeping a list for them in the character tab. Your choices will effect if the animal survives and is released, or dies.

Rules:
1. No bullying others or picking apart their posts. This rp will run on the saying "believable, not realistic".
2. If you have an idea, please ask! The worst that can happen is I say 'not right now'. I do have a plan in place but it is very flexible. I want people to participate. Do not be afraid to come up with ideas.
3. No God-modding. If you make a mistake and an animal dies I do not want complaining. You can present an argument for your choices if you feel I made an error in judgement and I will review it. No one knows everything. We can't all make perfect choices every time, especially in the heat of the moment. The best way to avoid mistakes is to read my description of animal injuries and illnesses very carefully before acting.
4. I may get rather gory in descriptions of injuries and swearing is allowed. But anything romance related (if there is any) must be taken to PMs or fade to black.
5. Once I do a GM Post (Which I will indicate at the top of the post) you have a week to react to what is going on before the next GM post. If you need more time for any reason, please let me know. Once again, I am very flexible and will make allowances for good reasons.
6. I reserve to right to add more rules should they be needed.

Pic - (real photos please)
Name -
Age -
Occupation -

Thank you for reading this far and if you join thank you extra! Please give this a chance!

Oooh, those pics are making me want to get on a plane and go somewhere nice right this second I'm thinking maybe a marine mammal specialist for my character. I like the whole 'animals may die' mechanic - as horrible as the idea of animals dying is, it's an interesting idea (honestly I'm a lil bit in love with this rp if you couldn't tell). Will try and work on a character tomorrow - but I'm travelling home for easter, so I may not get chance (although I guess I could work on one on my phone in the car ), but will deffo be up the day after if not tomorrow

@2plus2isnot5 I love him!! I wish I had one of him in real life!! And the "brief" thing was for people who don't like to go into too much detail (like me) who prefer revealing their character a little at a time. But I completely respect and applaud your attention to detail and your awesome story telling abilities! You are going to be an asset to this rp I can already tell!

@lozi that would be an Animal Care Specialist I'm pretty sure.

Yes we need several of those.

Sorry for how short it is, I just wanted to get it up so that you had a general idea and could start the roleplay. I'm also pretty swamped with putting character applications up. I'll add to it more later, if you'd like me to.

@lozi He is very interesting. I like him. Can't wait to see how he develops.
You don't have to add anything else unless you want to. It's up to the player how much they reveal about their character at the start. Good example is my CS. It is very similar to yours. I plan to reveal more as the story progresses. But @2plus2isnot5 did a significant amount of backstory with their character and that is fine too. It is whatever you are comfortable with.

Thank you guys for joining. I really appreciate it more then you know.

I will be making the first IC post tonight. If you want to create a key animal please let me know via pm and I will add them to the initial post and key animal list.

Beau Lassittor
31
Veterinarian
Beau has always had a strong love for animals. He grew up on a farm in the midwest of the USA. It was often that aiding an animal took your own hands and no special doctors. It was from watching his father care & love those animals that inspired the young boy.
Growing up surrounded by land, Beau never saw the ocean until he was 25 years old. It took a lot for him to get the gull to leave his home town. But when he found the opportunity to help sea life and work with it everyday, he ran for it. The everyday cat & dog was starting to numb him of his passion for his job. He needed this change.


Favorite Animal ~ Stingray

Naomi Jensin
22
College Intern-Marine Biology Major

A girl from a family of 8 children, Naomi is somewhere lost in the middle of the lineage. Her parents always pushed each of them to go to school and make something of themselves, considering the poorer life they had to give their children.
Although Naomi never let her parents pressure really ever bother her, they werent exactly pleased when they heard she was going to school for a science. Something that didnt necessarily promise a job once you left school.
This internship is a savior in Naomi’s eyes. Not only is it an amazing opportunity for her but it is also something to prove to her parents she wasnt wasting her time with this. She would make something of herself.

Helllllllllllllllo Beau *winks* Hottie Alert!
I like that you put their favorite animals there as well. Good idea.
Both are accepted.

I am writing out the Key Animal list and will update the first post in the character thread with this list so feel free to reference it when making your first post.

@RisenSun you just had to use Chris Pratt omg...

-------
edit: on a side note I may change my characters age just because length of experience in the Marines plus length of recovery before going to the island... i am starting to think it does not add up to 26 if you can only join the military at 18... but idk... i need to do some more research... if anyone knows more about military stuff please let me know. It may save me time haha
