I am looking for a historical or modern setting RP in which a young, wealthy Professor / Scientist puts out an ad for a butler, housekeeper:
Help Wanted
Professor seeks live in help with housekeeping, cooking, cleaning, public relations, and other miracles as required. Resume required with photo. Include letters of recommendation, certificates of education and family lineage. Salary negotiable.
Selected candidates must apply in person. Travel arrangements and costs will be provided by Professor.
The year will be 1905. The location will be a fictional group of islands halfway between Hawaii and Midway Atoll. The islands actually belong to the Professor and were opened up to selective immigration in 1902. Current population is only about 5000. English is a must to work there.
Spoiler: The Professor is a time traveller - by accident. He was testing a new warp propulsion system they went unstable and had to be ejected. He was able to cripple his way back to Earth, only to find himself in the past. He's been back for awhile. He is starting to give up on the idea of being able to return to his own time for he has found that this history has several variances that he has no way of correcting. For example, noone has heard of Einstein. (His islands didn't exist ... and they are right in the path the Japanese will use to bomb Pearl Harbor in 1941.)
