Cool. ^.^
GM
It was finished.
The only problem about this is, as much as I'd love to join, without a plot a lot of Harvest Moon RPs tend to die out, or struggle to stay alive. Sandboxing isn't terrible when it come to something such as a video game, and I don't do many Sandbox RP's, but whenever I see one I always notice it just tends to fizzle out. It's just people run out of things to talk or write about, and it becomes more of a chore then exciting. Unless of course they're having a personal story go on with someone else, but after that resolve it becomes eh.
So, I want to join, I just want to know if we'll have some sort of plot enter the stage soon rather then later. Crazy billionaire guy wants to take over the town, towns people are conflicted with it, etc. Or some bad dudes run into town, cause problem, peeps gotta stop it. Maybe thief is about, people get suspicious of each other, or even the Harvest Goddess is like "I'm done." for some reason and the town just goes down hill from there. Lots of options. Just hoping that there will eventually be something we can work on.

GM
I am going to add in a bigger plot that slowly comes into play over the course of the game (well, not slowly, but gradually so I'm not just throwing something right at you guys.) Plus, there are going to be various special events and festivals to attend scattered throughout, so its not as Sandbox-y as other games like this are. Ill try and keep everyone entertained to the best of my ability, and am open to suggestion on how to keep this game interesting. (:
I am super interested I just want to read everything in detail. But could I be a flower shop keeper? Also when you say two or more paragraphs how big are you wanting? I only ask because I have never done an advance RPG.
GM
Sure, go right ahead. And, uh, well my paragraphs usually depend on what I'm describing or doing, they're usually around ten sentences or more per paragraph maybe??? Augh, sorry, I don't know how to explain it.
Oh no your good. I was having a hard time trying to describe it. I will start working on a profile/character sheet. What dose sandbox RP mean?
GM
Sandbox means like an open world RP, where the player is allowed to do anything within the game's bounds. Think of games like Minecraft or Animal Crossing or... Harvest Moon. (:
Ooooh, I would LOVE to see a flower shop!
I'm mid character creation and then the website for the avatar dies DX I will get her up soonlyish!

Spring Outfit
Name:
Elizabeth 'Eli' Stern
Age:
Eighteen
Gender:
Female
Birthday:
Summer 10
Role:
Runaway (Looking for work)
Likes:
-Coffee and tea, Eli adores hot drinks.
-Orange juice, orange pie, orange cake, orange ice cream, orange anything!
-Anything with mint, including ice cream and tea.
-Fruits and vegetables of all kinds.
-Nature, enjoys people bringing her flowers
-Drawing, painting, and photography. Art is her favorite past time.
Dislikes:
-Spicy foods, she's always had a sensitive tongue.
-Large storms, normally had to deal with these by herself when young and has grown quite terrified of them.
-The dark. Past issues, though the fear stuck.
-Meat and fish, she's a vegetarian and these items make her rather sick.
-Tight spaces. Eli hates to be enclosed in a single place for too long and begins to hyperventilate if she happens to stay in one for an extended period of time.
-Most people. (Depending on her mood)
-Herself at times.
Personality:
Eli is quiet, to say the least. She holds her tongue in most social situations, only speaks when spoken to out of habit, and always seems to wander around with her eyes glued to the ground unless conversing with someone . Evidently, this gives her a polite and almost mysterious appearance, but in actuality she is somewhat short-tempered and clumsy. While her upbringing seemed to mold her into a shy, vulnerable girl, her mouth will at times jab out at people who she finds annoying and she is prone to fits of anger or sadness if her patience is snapped (normally occurs after dealing with certain people for too long or after getting stressed out). Quick witted, she will almost always have a snappy remark but often with holds saying it, forcing herself to be kind out of a thirst for companionship. Cynical, Eli has trouble trusting most people, and as such is rather bad at making friends, though she does enjoy the company of others at times. She tries her best to be nice, but finds that she always says something rude or mean, which leads to mild states of depression that are fixed after a while of just sitting by herself. Judges people at first glance, which is something she is trying to fix about herself, and will at times avoid people who might appear bad but are actually just trying to help. She is also very stubborn and open minded, and will speak up if she knows something immoral is being done in front of her. Along with all that, she is also very insecure, especially about her rude personality and appearance, and is confused when people try to be kind or lovey-dovey with her thanks to this.
When alone, she is much more calm, and will often be found painting or drawing in the fields or forest, her eyes taking in every articulate detail they can catch. Nature is her favorite thing to be around, and as such she will often be found outside of the town, exploring the mountain or forest or fields of river. Rather clumsy, and easily flustered, there are times when Eli gets into rather awkward situations in which she just stutters around and hits anyone within the area out of embarrassment. A surprisingly hard worker, Elizabeth takes work seriously and with her stubbornness she often tries her hardest to help with the tasks she is given. There are times where she will even work herself to exhaustion just to get something done. If she does manage to secure some nice friends, Eli is much more relaxed and teasing, though will often question their interest in her and may even stress over the thought of them hating her.
Background:
Somewhere, far from the Valley, was a city. And in this city was an expensive two floor apartment, and in this apartment was a family, a rather bad family, which contained two controlling parents and three, quiet, polite, broken children. This family, one summer night, welcomed a fourth child into their household, a girl named Elizabeth. She was different from the other children though, she grew up to be open and bright and, in her parents eyes, unfit for the family standards. Their children HAD to be polite and quiet, like dolls to show of to their friends and co-workers and higher ups. So, they decided to 'fix' her, they took away things she enjoyed, separated her from friend groups, and lectured her often. There were even times where she would be locked in her closet for back sassing one of them, and she would sit in there for a mere hour, crying because of the dark and the tightness. They yelled, arranged playdates with children she didn't care to know, and at times even hit her. And they molded her into another perfect doll, snipped her innocence early and just used her for social gatherings, just like her brothers.
Her three brothers were the only people she spoke to, and that was only when their parents were out at work. The spoke of music and TV and art and hate and love. Tyler and Jessie, the twins, spoke of wanting to be rock musicians, but knew that mom and dad would not allow anything so vulgar and loud. Tom, the oldest and wisest, wanted to be an actor, despite their parents badgering him about a medical career. When asked what she wished to do, Elizabeth replied with a simple: "To get out of here." They all grew up, and even after Tom, Tyler, and Jessie left home Elizabeth tried her best to keep in touch with them, until her parents cut off communication with them suddenly. Elizabeth likes to think that it was because they followed their dreams.
Eventually, mom and dad became too controlling, as they tried to force Elizabeth to go to a college she didn't wish to go to, trying to make her pursue a career in business, and they even tried to force men into her life. On her seventeenth birthday, she finally became fed up. After the 'celebration' (which involved a small cake and a gift card) she went back to her room as she normally did, but instead of falling asleep in complete silence, she gathered what she could (a bag full of clothing, art supplies, and every ounce of money hidden within her walls) and climbed down the side of the building from the fire escape. She left behind her phone, and anything they could use to contact her, and traveled the land, searching for a safe haven.
After a year of train hopping, odd jobs, and homeless nights, she managed to find a nice town in the middle of a vast valley, and is currently using the last of her money to pay for her time in an inn while job hunting.
Skills:
- Hard Worker: Takes a job seriously, no matter what, and will try her best to help in anyway she can.
- Art: A skilled artist, Eli's pieces are often representations of her feelings and as such are rather abstract. There are many scenery pictures, though, as the Valley's natural beauty has recently inspired her to draw more from life.
- Quick Wit: Her tongue is a weapon and she will gladly use it if so needed.
- Calm: In much more drastic situations, Eli is surprisingly calm and clear-minded.
Relationships:
- Alex Garnet: Has seen the girl once or twice while wandering, and knows that she is the bartender of the Azalea Bar. Doesn't have any ill will towards her as of yet, seeing as they haven't conversed before, and is somewhat curious about what Alex is actually like. Eli has plans to visit the bar soon, but has been a bit antsy about it as she's never been to a bar before.
- Gaku Yamamoto: Normally sees Gaku around the Inn and sometimes he will greet her, to which she will reply with a greeting back. Gaku's punkish appearance sort of turned her away from him the first time she met the boy, and hearing him talk so bluntly to others didn't help with that, but she has heard his guitar playing before while lounging in the forest and has since wanted to ask him about his music.
- Everett Micheals: Eli has heard about the calm and collected doctor while running some errands, and might have seen him once or twice by his clinic but hasn't shared a formal word with him. Might go in for a check-up soon, though.
- Isis Thorn: Has seen the woman in her shop while exploring the town, and they have at least greeted each other once. Eli likes the flower shop and enjoys the bouquets and arrangements that Isis has created. Sometimes she stops by to relax and maybe even sketch.
- Izzie McKenzie: Sees the woman in the Inn mostly, and finds her attitude and teasing to be rather annoying, but has withheld any rudeness for the time being. Eli is rather jealous of Izzie's beauty and personality, though she doesn't show it. Izzie has been rather friendly towards her, though, and has tried to start conversations, but Eli can't really handle her yet.
- Henry Manteel: Eli has heard of the farmer but has never actually met him. Wishes to inquire him about his vegetables and fruit, though.
- Rosemary Bates: Has seen the girl around before, but hasn't spoken to her. Has been meaning to go into the shop though, as Eli is running out of usable outfits and gadgets. They might get along, though (or maybe not at all)
-Alice Rems: Hasn't seen or heard of this girl. Might be interested with her cooking ability though, as Eli is a rather okay chef herself.
- Brent Roless: (Have yet to meet I believe) A rather strange character, Eli is somewhat afraid of him and his eccentric, hobo type ways. While he does treat her kindly, Brent is somewhat competitive, especially in a work environment, and Eli normally seems as though she doesn't care for that side of him while in reality is somewhat amused by it. He isn't safe from her sharp remarks, but he isn't exactly a thorn in her side either, and I would like to think they would form some type of friendly rivalry/ friendship.
Other:
Doesn't speak much about her past, unless it is to someone she trusts entirely. There are numerous scars on her back from her parents and is still considered a lost child by her family and the police.

Alright, I decided to give it a chance. Here's what I got.
In-Game Spring appearance
Name: Gaku Yamamoto
Age: 19
Gender: Male
Birthday: Spring 7th
Role: Inn Worker
Likes
-Spicy food and sweet food. Doesn't really tell people about the latter.
-Music, top two are Rock and Classic.
-Animals, have a special place in his heart. But he doesn't show much affection when around others
-To follow up on this, Gaku likes cute things. Nobody knows this though, and he isn't so keen on letting others know.
Dislikes
-Veggies unless mixed with other food. Straight out vegetables he finds tasteless and boring.
-Working, would rather do nothing all day. Or play the guitar.
-Country music
-Thinking too hard about things he find stupid. Like puzzles and stuff.
Personality
At first glance, people tend to say Gaku has a meek appearance and the personality of a potato. Gaku can be a bit blunt. And by a bit blunt, I mean Gaku can be brutally honest. He tends to say what's on his mind, even if it can be a bit offensive or hurtful. Although usually he doesn't mean it to be that way, which causes him to be a bit confused when someone is hurt by his statement. To him, he's just telling the truth. It doesn't help that Gaku hates working and can be very lazy at times, which causes him to do his jobs halfheartedly and mess things up in the end. This has Gaku rub off on people the wrong way, and some may even see him as a deviant. If something is missing? Blame Gaku. If something is broken or unfinished? It's probably Gaku's fault.
But when he's not hitting the nail on the head, he is usually jamming out with the guitar. Gaku loves music, and wants to play for others, but sometimes has his doubts. It's not just music either, a lot of the time he has doubts about himself and on some days be a bit moody. Other then that though, Gaku likes animals and cute things, which tend to go hand in hand. However, he doesn't express this side of him much, and only shows affection for animals when alone.
If there is one redeeming trait about Gaku however, it's that he doesn't judge people. He knows how it feels, so he comes off as very accepting to others for who they are, or whatever problems people carry. Although this doesn't mean he won't tell you the brutal and honest truth if need be. The only problem is, people can't get past his tough/punk guy persona to notice it.
Background
Back when Gaku was young, he lived in a huge city with buses going back and forth, and the smoke rising up through the skies. Your typical, average pollution working city. His home life was fine, but at school he usually was tormented for liking cute or 'girly' things. Because of this, Gaku developed a punk-ish persona, and got in a lot of fights with people. This caused a lot of trouble for him in his school years, and you wouldn't be caught dead in detention without Gaku in the room with you. It didn't help Gaku was extremely blunt to others, which was usually the main ignition trigger to cause him to fight with others. His parents were extremely strict and old school with Gaku, which had him rebel a bit in his teenage years, too the point where Gaku begun to fail his schooling.
After Gaku graduated High School, he decided to move out from the city because of the bad reputation he carried, as well as the feeling of disappointing his parents. He just couldn't carry the burden anymore, and decided to go somewhere new and refreshing. He ended in Lily of the Valley, yet wasn't used to the town life it brought and because of that always came off a bit cold with others villagers. He moved into the local Inn, where he now works for the Inn Keeper as payment for staying there. His tasks involves cleaning the front while doing odd jobs here and there, even being sent to help out other stores at times. On his off days, he spends a lot of his time out and about, either playing music or taking a stroll past farms. One day, Gaku hopes he can become a musician and spread his love for music with others all across the world, but tends to doubt his own abilities.
Skills
-Even though he doubts himself, he is actually pretty fantastic with the guitar. Sometimes he just lacks inspiration.
-He's become a master at avoiding daunting tasks, and is pretty great at putting them off until the last minute. This however tends to cause his work to be a bit terrible.
-Due to all his years fighting in school, he can actually hold himself pretty well when fighting with someone else, even with his meek appearance.
Relationships
- Alex Garnet: They've worked at the local bar together before when the Inn Keeper sent him on one of his odd jobs. They've talked about work once or twice while Gaku was helping the bar, but outside of that they don't talk much. Gaku finds her a bit awkward when they're working together but doesn't really give it much thought.
- Elizabeth 'Eli' Stern: Since he lives at the Inn with her, Gaku sees Eli around a lot. They don't say much to each other except for the casual hi's and goodbye's, but sometimes when he sees Eli around he thinks she looks a bit troubled. Be it because she can't get a job or other matters, it strikes him a bit curious. He's willing to lend a ear for her problems, but decides it isn't for the best and chooses to avoid it.
- Everett Micheals: When you put a blunt man with a man of science in the same room, nothing exciting can come out of it. That's pretty much the case here, as listening to these two talk with each other is worse then watching paint dry. Other then that, Gaku think's he's not that bad of a guy, but can be a bit of a nerd sometimes with his 'big academic words' and gets bored because of it. The two don't go out of their way to talk to each other, but will talk every now and then when Gaku's feeling under the weather.
- Henry Manteel: TBD
- Isabelle 'Izzie' McKenzie: The only person in the entire town Gaku is actually friendly with, besides Starr and family. Izzie and Gaku have worked quite a few times together, either Gaku helping out at the Cafe or Izzie at the Inn. Like Eli, Izzie also lives in at the Inn, so the two frequently see each other even out side of work. They sometimes throw cute cheeky remarks at one another, and although he doesn't agree much with her prankster nature, he accepts it. It's the least he can do considering she accepts him a lot better than a lot of the townsfolk do. If Gaku isn't spending his time doing something by himself, he'll probably be seen with Izzie, either working or having a casual chat.
- Isis Thorne: TBD
Other
Spends a lot of his time at Flora Falls, Mount Edelweiss, and Glowing Fern Forest. Also has a mean poker face.

He just couldn't carry the burden anymore, and decided to go somewhere new and refreshing. He ended in Lily of the Valley, yet wasn't used to the town life it brought and because of that always came off a bit cold with others villagers. He moved into the local Inn, where he now works for the Inn Keeper as payment for staying there. His tasks involves cleaning the front while doing odd jobs here and there, even being sent to help out other stores at times. On his off days, he spends a lot of his time out and about, either playing music or taking a stroll past farms. One day, Gaku hopes he can become a musician and spread his love for music with others all across the world, but tends to doubt his own abilities.
Skills
-Even though he doubts himself, he is actually pretty fantastic with the guitar. Sometimes he just lacks inspiration.
-He's become a master at avoiding daunting tasks, and is pretty great at putting them off until the last minute. This however tends to cause his work to be a bit terrible.
-Due to all his years fighting in school, he can actually hold himself pretty well when fighting with someone else, even with his meek appearance.
Relationships
- Alex Garnet: They've worked at the local bar together before when the Inn Keeper sent him on one of his odd jobs. They've talked about work once or twice while Gaku was helping the bar, but outside of that they don't talk much. Gaku finds her a bit awkward when they're working together but doesn't really give it much thought.
- Elizabeth 'Eli' Stern: Since he lives at the Inn with her, Gaku sees Eli around a lot. They don't say much to each other except for the casual hi's and goodbye's, but sometimes when he sees Eli around he thinks she looks a bit troubled. Be it because she can't get a job or other matters, it strikes him a bit curious. He's willing to lend a ear for her problems, but decides it isn't for the best and chooses to avoid it.
- Everett Micheals: When you put a blunt man with a man of science in the same room, nothing exciting can come out of it. That's pretty much the case here, as listening to these two talk with each other is worse then watching paint dry. Other then that, Gaku think's he's not that bad of a guy, but can be a bit of a nerd sometimes with his 'big academic words' and gets bored because of it. The two don't go out of their way to talk to each other, but will talk every now and then when Gaku's feeling under the weather.
- Henry Manteel: TBD
- Isabelle 'Izzie' McKenzie: The only person in the entire town Gaku is actually friendly with, besides Starr and family. Izzie and Gaku have worked quite a few times together, either Gaku helping out at the Cafe or Izzie at the Inn. Like Eli, Izzie also lives in at the Inn, so the two frequently see each other even out side of work. They sometimes throw cute cheeky remarks at one another, and although he doesn't agree much with her prankster nature, he accepts it. It's the least he can do considering she accepts him a lot better than a lot of the townsfolk do. If Gaku isn't spending his time doing something by himself, he'll probably be seen with Izzie, either working or having a casual chat.
- Isis Thorne: TBD
Other
Spends a lot of his time at Flora Falls, Mount Edelweiss, and Glowing Fern Forest. Also has a mean poker face.

Accepted. We already have a very good cast, I'm excited to start. And yeah, I like the second picture as well. Also, Discontent, where does Alex live in the Valley?
Ah, sorry. Lily Town.
Also, sweet, sudden influx of people.
GM
Gaku is accepted. Ill be editing the main post when I'm free from classes.
And now, I well tell everyone that its a suitable time to start discussing pre-existing relationships. Most of these characters have lived in the Valley for awhile, so they should at least be acquainted with one another. Discuss either here or through PM (with the person you want to discuss a friendship with) how your character views other characters. These relationships will strengthen (hopefully) through the course of the game.
Example: __ doesn't know --- very well. __ and --- are very good friends! __ hates ---! Ect. Ect. You're allowed to go above and beyond with the descriptions if you want.

There is not much she dose not like. Although she dose not get along with negative people and now that she thinks of it pickles they smell funny.

Is a very chill person. She tries to make people happy, loves to hear people's stories and always wants to be a shoulder to lean on. It hurst her when people don't trust her and can sometime push people way because of her persists make friends.

She is also afraid of anything that is not a bug as far as animals go because she dose not understand them.
Background
This is the town she was born and raised in. She has know nothing else but the little town of Lilly and has not really cared to. She is happy here and feels that she can always find things to entertain her. Her life has only consisted of the flower shoppe and it has all way been a since of comfort to her. When she started to walk she would run to the backyard and play in the flowers for hours. Her parents would always laugh at the little games she would come up with and while they ate she would tell them the adventures she had in the garden and show them the bugs that she had adopted and named. As she got older her parents started teaching her the flowers names and symbolic meanings of them all. By the age of ten she had memorized them all and started her very first garden. That spring they where made into the most beautiful arragnments and given out as gifts on the flower festival. (Hope this is okay >.<) She continued to learn and very year on up her birthday/Flower Festival she would be give more charge of the shoppe. By the time she was Nineteen her parents where ready to retire and handed over the flower shoppe to her. They moved to a quieter part of town and left everything to her so she could blossom in her own way.

Knows every known flower to man and there symbolic meaning and there true power over the heart.
Relationships
Since she has grown up in the town and loves to meet new people so she knows just about everybody.
•Gaku Yamamoto (Van)
Have meet once but did not really talk to Isis which hurt her feelings a bit but, is persistent and will try to talk to him later. Maybe she will send him a bouquet as a neighborly jester?
•Everett Micheals (Perniciousintent)
TBA
•Alex Garnet (Discontent)
Talk quite often and get along very well. They both share a passion for flowers but are not super close. she loves it when Alex come to the flower shop to chat about all the flowers and will from time to time see her at the bar. Isis is glad to share something in common with the lovely lady.
•Eli Stern (Liriia)
Has come into the flower shop while exploring the town, and they have at least greeted each other once. Has come to look at the bouquets and arrangements that Isis has created. Isis has not had a chance to really talk to her because she has always been busy but sees her sketching out side the shop and would like her to paint murals for her shop because Isis is really bad at drawling and anything of that sort.
•Izzie Mckenzie (Chezka)
likes to visit the flower shop on her free time to look at the flowers and just talk to Isis. Will listen to her woes and help to uplift her when she is down. Like her happy up beat personality and is glad that she come sto confide in her.

Hmm, I'm not too sure how Gakus' relationships with others are. He doesn't spend much time at places chatting it up with others . I assume whoever he knows will be people who regularly visit the inn, as well as the Doctor. Not sure what relationship PIs character Everett will have with Gaku, but in guessing it might not be too good because of his blunt/almost rude personality. But that could apply for a lot of characters. The Inn Keeper he will probably know very well, and if it's a NPC I'll have them have a love/hate relationship. Depends if we get a player character for the Inn. Other then that, assuming Eli didn't just arrive into town at the start of this RP, I'm guessing they kind of know each other.. Buuut probably don't care for each other's that much. Well, yet. But that entire part is up to you, Liri.
Other then that, I'm not sure who else has character that may just visit the place, so that relationship part would be up to everyone else. If anyone thinks of anything, pitch them to me I guess? I dunno :v
