Well, the main idea of this is to have a huge carnival that goes from town to town with its wicked circus members who needs fear and souls to feed upon to continue their show. Thing is...outside people don't know it, and it's too late to tell anyone when they have their souls and happiness sucked. They don't have to be evil, but they all feast upon souls. This would be based upon modern days, like...nowadays. Also, one final thing to add..they had something in their lives that they wanted. Wether it be the return of a dead member, to fix something with themselves or a simple selfish wish...They had come to Hag for him to accomplish it. But it was rarely accomplished in a good way. However, with their wish done, they had to serve Hag's Carnival as bond between the wish and them. Like a contract. Their lives are bound to the carnival, and they can't escape it, or else they'll die.

Rules:
-No Godmodding.
-Some 18+ content (like gore and romance) is allowed, but take the other scenes to PMs please.
-Keep discussions between users at its lowest point. I don't want those silly games here.
-If a fight engages between two characters, you solve it. If you fight over who wins, I'll solve it.
-If I kill a character for whatever reason (like annoying me) then you are killed for good.
-Bonds with each character/s have to be asked first in order to fully settle them. You can't be the forced sister of someone.

Name: Hagger "Hag" Spetz
Age: 31
Gender: Male
Appearance:

(Yes, I know it's Shaco!)
Position: Ringmaster.
Powers: Temporal Invisibility, can produce intense fear to an enemy to the point of rendering him useless, enhanced agility and can multiplicate himself.
Personality: He's a quite calm man who is always wearing a mask, so no ones knows how he looks underneath it. Also, he's quite of a psycho who loves to see blood getting spilled. He can also get quite hype with people.
Background: Hag's backgrounds are mostly unknown, but it is known he was born in a family full of magic, and some of those elements were transfered to him. Once he realized he could grant wishes, he got the best idea: to create his own Carnival. That's when he left behind his family in Sweden and travelled to Germany to set up his Carnival there. From that point on, he has travelled through the whole world with his carnival, harvesting thousands of souls with his employees.
Wish: None, since he is the creator.
Bonds to other characters: Best friends with Mortimer.
Weapons: He has two daggers on his hips at all times.

Name: Mortimer Scharff
Age: Long Dead.
Gender: Male
Appearance:

Position: Watchman.
Powers: Has the power of darkness and shadows, and he masterfully controls them. Plus, he has necromancer-like powers. His crow, Shadow, also possesses the same powers and it is his weak-spot.
Personality: Mortimer is an extremely shy person who always stutters when he speaks. He is really strict and a person to fear since his shadows produce the most nightmarish elements to ever dream of.
Background: Mortimer was a happy family who lived in the United Kingdom, London. One day, a pair of gang members came to his house and killed his wife and his children, turning his life into an eternal nightmare. He couldn't sleep, he couldn't eat...he couldn't do anything. To spend time with his dead family, he accepted a job ina cemetery, but he didn't want to die because he knew the faces of his dead family would show him how much of a bad parent he was to let them die. When Hag came across, he hopped aboard the circus asking the wish to never die, to be inmortal.
Wish: To be inmortal.
Bonds to other characters: He is very good friends with Hag, mostly because he sees a beacon of hope in Hag, as he punishes bad people, and so does Mortimer.
Weapons: His strange, dark and disturbing magic.

So, go ahead! Join!

Position (Of the ones listed above):
Acrobat
Powers (don't godmod here, for God's sake):

She had to work for the circus, harvesting souls to live.

To remain young forever.
Bonds to other characters:
She finds Hag really interesting and wants to know more about him and his past.
Weapons:
Her umbrella which she uses as a prop when she is performing has a hidden blade attached to the handle.

do you have openings and if so for what roles?

greenolive, accepted!

Astarael...openings as for what? The roles are those that are listed there.

Ok. I wasn't sure if you had other "acts" you might be considering as well as I wasn't sure if other players had reserved certain staff pisitions. My mind was thinking along the lines of a animal taming act but if such a thing doesn't fit into your plans I'll re-think.

Yes! I forgot to add that category! I'll add it right away! And if you want to enter, go ahead. :)

Ok. I'll work on something. I have sort of a twisted snake charmer kinda thought rolling around in my head

Ok!

Name: Vol

Age: 32

Gender: male

Appearance: Vol is a lean man with a narrow face with thin lips and a grin that can inspire trust or fear with equal ease. He is actually quite handsome and knows it. He has a nearly always hungry look in his eyes, as to what he hungers for…that changes regularly. He dresses a in a bit of an old fashioned industrial style and keeps with him at all times a sword-cane. He has a trim lean body with good muscles, hazel eys that can truely charm, and thick black hair.

Position: Animal tamer specializing in wolverines (for the moment)

Powers: Able to assert dominance over any predatory and semi-predatory mammal, he can summon and command them as he wishes.

Personality: He is cold most of the time, and a bit sadistic. He actually enjoys loosing his wolverines on people, seeing the fear. Particularly those he dislikes. He can also be proper and follow the rules; but that doesn’t mean he likes it. He has a great taste for all the finest things in life, wine, women, and riches…not necessarily in that order. He was always cold hearted, living for the moment and himself. Being forced into the carnival did not change that. It increased it a bit, but that darker self was always there.

Background info: Vol was born poor, his family died of disease and left him to fend for himself. He hated them for that. And he hated being poor. He began to steal, lie, charm, and bluff his way into money from the age of 8. He did whatever, whoever, whenever, wherever he had to do. He was good at it too. There was something about him that he was just able to manipulate people so easily. He was handsome, that helped. But it was more to it than that. He could read people. And he had no qualms about stepping on them to get to his goal. He amassed much money much faster than one might expect but it was never quite enough.

Wish: His wish was simple—to have as much money, women, and luxuries as he wanted whenever he wanted them. He mourns his bondage only in that it is bondage; the “job” he loves.

Bonds to other characters: He cares about himself. That’s pretty much it.

Weapons: Sword-Cane

Accepted. Sadly...no one wants to join? XD! Post in the IC if you feel like.

I can see if I can find anyone. If you want. And I'll post in the IC later today if I can.

Ok, go ahead.

so quick question for you Mortimer...I found an old RP buddy who would be interested in joining (not yet a member of the site) if you might consider opening up a fortune teller position.

Sure.

ok. should be around tomorrow sometime then.

Great, I'll wait for someone else before I post.

Name: Baba
Age: Good question
Gender: Female
Appearance: Baba these days is strikingly beautiful. In fact, with rare exception, she keeps her face veiled to avoid making trouble. The result of her boon is that her beauty is often cold and proud or even terrible.

Baba wears a “traditional” fortune teller’s outfit much of the time. Swathed in scarves with dark locks tumbling from her head-covering. When she does not, she covers much of her face to prevent . . . issues.
Position: Fortune Teller
Powers: Hexes, curses, and items impregnated with the same.
Personality: Baba is not only cold and proud as her features suggest, but also cruel and spiteful. She is bitter about her bondage and shares that misery with as many as possible, devising new and interesting ways to cause torment as well as those that are old standbys.
Background info: Baba is old. Ancient. For as long as she could remember (which is a very long time indeed) she was old and withered and ugly. She was always proud and cold, but she was wretched. When she was offered the chance at beauty, she took it, knowing that there would be a cost and one she paid willingly.
Wish: Eternal beauty—it came out almost dangerously strong. So she can’t show off her new prize except in the rarest circumstances.
Bonds to other characters: None yet
Weapons: She wears a belt with talismans woven into it, each one storing a nasty effect easily at hand to be thrown at someone. She also has a dagger strapped to the inside of her wrist.

Accepted!!!!

Wow, this was remade? Awesome ^^ Can I sign up for this again?

Sure! I haven't posted in the IC because I don't want to spam without others users posting first.
