Nestled in the sleepy town of Iverson, California is Lakewood Summit, a cozy suburban paradise for the county’s best and brightest. Entrance into this gated community is strict and exclusive, and once when you buy a home there, you buy a lifestyle. Top-notch private schooling, a sprawling country club, 24-hour security presence and gorgeous community gardens overlooking a private lake, all for an average price of six million per home.
While the sun shines and polished housewives take their groomed toy pooches on strolls to the dog park, it seems that not all that glitters is gold. Lakewood and its residents harbor nearly as many secrets as they have digits in their bank accounts. Who is sleeping with who? Are the Jones’ really considering a divorce? What about the children? There are whispers of suspected drug use and unplanned pregnancy among the seemingly cherubic youth. It won’t be long before the perfect façade of the suburban oasis starts to crack.
We are in need of a few residents to fill up this exclusive community. Your characters can be pre-existing residents of The Summit or a brand new family (or bachelor/bachelorette) looking to start a life of luxury in California’s wealthiest county. These residents can be of any age, from the 5-year old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Smith to the old man down the block who is always yelling at kids to get off his lawn. We are looking for creative roleplayers who write at a high-casual to low-advanced level and are ready and willing to spark drama and intrigue in the plot of this Semblance of Suburbia.
Please feel free to post not only your interest, but any rough character ideas you may have. If you have any questions, do not hesitate to ask myself (co-GM) or @Universorum (GM).
