Firstly, I'm not looking for a mature roleplay and this doesn't even need to be romantic. I'd like just a normal ol' rp partner to help drive the story. I don't care what gender you are though I would love someone who can play multiple people and post two or three paragraphs.
This rp will be based off of the Haven Tv show... if you haven't seen it that's ok. I'm going to explain the important bits.
"Haven, better known to some as a refuge for God's orphans, has always been an odd little town. It has suffered more deaths, murders, accidents, and tragedies than any one small town has a right to... but when you live in a place like Haven, a place where people can do unbelievable and unnatural things, you get used to it. Like any small town, Haven has its secrets... its troubles, and not just any troubles... THE Troubles.
See, those people I mentioned... they aren't just your plain old run of the mill odd folk. They have abilities, abilities that come at a price, and most of the time they have no idea how to control them and if they do... sometimes the rules change. We call these abilities, these curses, Troubles and the people who have them Troubled... or Afflicted.
Sometimes, the Troubles go away and they stay gone a while... 27 years, long enough that Haven starts to believe that maybe, just maybe, they'll stay gone. Of course, that's just wishful thinking. The Troubles always come back and when they do Haven goes crazy all over again. There was a girl whose drawings held so much reality that whatever happened to the images happened to their models as well. There was a man whose guilt ran so deep over how he treated his wife before she died that when she did his shadow took in a life of its own, taking all those horrible emotions with it and it started killing anyone who made him upset. There is an entire family that cannot cry because when they do random people die. There is a woman whose emotions affect the wheather, a woman who envied her sisters wedding so much that now evething she tries to eat turns to wedding cake... These aren't things they do on purpose, half the time they don't even realize they're doing it and its almost always activated by some tragedy or strong emotional scar.
The Haven PD have been covering up the truth and 'fixing' the Troubled for as long as anyone can remember... and by fixing I mean finding out what trauma, or emotional response is causing the activity in the person and finding a way to counteract it... but sometimes people make things more difficult than they have to be. Every time the Troubles come back, the usuallly friendly and loving town splits into two factions... The Guard whose only goal is to protect the Troubled no matter what it might mean for other people, and the religious fanatics or close minded people too fixed on their fear of anything different to believe the Troubled are anything but monsters. Either you are one or the other or you're caught in the middle... like most if the PD."
Yes, if you have watched the show you know I left out some key points but I don't want to ruin the show for someone who might decide to watch it later. Yes, we can play either canon or non-canon characters and if canon we would take off from whatever season you saw last as I am up to date. If non we will be making up our own way... :)
