Setting

This RP takes place in modern-day America, where the strange and the supernatural (collectively called the Fae) live in the shadows, completely hidden from public knowledge. They hide -- as hobos, off the grid, or masquerading as humans with human lives -- because those who make themselves known go missing. Something invisible and seemingly omniscient hunts the Fae and keeps them scattered and afraid. As far as anyone knows this is the way it has always been. They call this invisible hunter 51.

The Circus Underground

Rockjaw and Silverheart's Circus Underground is a traveling circus troupe made up entirely of Fae and Fae-supporters, the only one of its kind. The circuit crosses the country from New York to San Francisco and everywhere in-between. They avoid 51 by running midnight shows in secret, keeping to the fairy roads and hopping traincars.

The co-owners of the Circus Underground are the Rockjaws and the Silverhearts, two families embroiled in a centuries-old feud that have grudgingly agreed to work together for the sake of the Circus. The Rockjaws have Dwarf blood in their mottled veins; they're eager for a fight and are mean and foul at every opportunity. The Silverhearts are pure Elves: quiet, sweet and generous, but with a sharp tongue to match the Rockjaws' bludgeoning honesty. Tensions therefore run high within the circus, and tricks and sabotage are the norm.

Gameplay

This RP will be co-modded by @NorthernGR and @Mokley! Actual gameplay will begin with a focus on the Circus Underground and its performances. Expect mystery, comedy, whimsy, moral dilemmas, horror, adventure, and forays into widely varying environments including inner cities and deep wilderness. There will be very little fighting, especially in the beginning, but that's not to say there won't be more creative uses for your character's talents.

@mindpalace Awesome! Thanks. :D

Sorry that took me so long to get the Silverhearts in the Character tab. Been busy and had to find a computer I could borrow.
Everyone can post their characters when they're ready in the Character tab now for reviewing :D

Let the games begin!!

Is it possible to run more than one character (I have a pair of twins who would fit in fine as acrobats!)? If not, I'd like to create a fire-eater/mage.

@Meridian I doubt Mokley would have a problem with it and I don't have one. I think we kinda intended you to if you wanted, we just didn't say it :3

@corrosiveCool! Can't wait to see it.

@mindpalace I'd say your accepted. Welcome to the carnival!

@shaitarn I don't see a problem with it. I think I see mokley on the page to so let's see what they have to say.

I made up a dead member of the Rockjaw clan, I hope that's okay.

Whoa I'm away for two hours and look! people!

I basically agree with everything Northern says. :D

@shaitarn Go for it with the twins!

@Meridian Meghara the firecracker is approved. You are absolutely allowed to make up dead Rockjaws, as much as you like. ;)

@corrosive Glad to hear it! Larkus seems like a fun feathery character. Approved!

@Korigon Every circus needs a tricky necromancer. Approved!

Edit: OH ALSO!! Keep in mind that all of you can totally make up relationships and acquaintances among yourselves. How do you know the other PCs? Had any adventures lately? Any enemies among you? ;)

@UnderSeasKing Come on in! :D It's a huge tent, everyone can fit quite comfortably.

Edit: And the werewolf-clown is approved! He's so innocent yet such nightmare-fuel.

Cool beans! This should be fun! I think for better communication, we should make a skype group for regular chatting, discussions, plotting, etc. My skype is angel.eyes0730 btw if u guys are interested in doing it.

Quick question. How do werewolves work? Do they change at will? Is it a painful transformation?

@Angel Eyes My Skype doesn't really work that well (Windows 8 + Skype = Pain in my you know what) I kind of can't get it to work :3 But if you want to connect with everyone else that is fine.

Also I'd say you are accepted. Though just so you know the character tab is where the app goes. Would you be willing to just copy and paste it real fast to that tab so me and Mokley and keep an easy eye on all the characters?

@smarty0114 I'd say that is up to you. Mok said people were free to world build as they liked so go ahead!

@NorthernGR Sweet, thanks mister. lol And its too bad that ur skype doesnt work. I find being in a skype chat helps keep the rebuddle and the rp lively because we are always interacting.

When do u think this is gonna start btw?
