Never Ending Days

Is it just me, or does this kind of sound like the school that Invader Zim goes to?

looking for people to work on an original story with

im trying to find people to help me work on my writing and help fill out some of the things i have been working on

@Notoriouswig

What sort of things have you been working on? You can hardly expect any interest without at least telling us that much....

The Art Of Performing

Possible interest.

Golden Sky Stories

I have never heard of this game before but I am so completely ready to be sold on it. I've been feeling like I need to find a roleplay that isn't dark or violent or gritty at all. But that type of stuff seems soooooo popular right now. I think this might be just the sort of thing I was hoping to find.

Everbrook: A Teenage Mystery RP

Hey guys. IRL duty calls & I have to go try and save my relationship. I don't think I 'll be online or able to be very creative this weekend.

@DruSM157 Go ahead and bench G Mann for now. I'll try to work on an improved version when I get some time.

Everbrook: A Teenage Mystery RP

So, here's the bad news: I only have 7 slots to work with. 8 is a big number in the lore I've devised for this RP, so sadly there's going to be characters that are accepted and those that aren't,

This doesn't mean that I'm throwing anyone to the curb or calling them trash; even if someone isn't accepted, if a player has to drop the RP for any reason, I will work their character out of the RP and work one of the characters in the "waiting room" into the RP.

@DruSM157

Makes a whole lotta sense for a spooky rp. If something doesn't work out with player being able to keep posting for some reason, their character can become a part of the lore and meet a bad end IC, and meanwhile there are extra team members on the bench to fill that spot.

@Lirriia I'm liking what you are doing with your CS. Lisa's story is increasing my instinct to sit back and eat popcorn while reading it now.

Everbrook: A Teenage Mystery RP

@DruSM157 Updated, Expanded and Reformatted. Tried to shed some light on his history and bring in some creepy vibes, in addition to taking formatting cues from Will's CS. Let me know what you think.

G Mann

Name

Gilbert Zhao AKA G Mann AKA G

Age

15

Place of Residence

306 Courtland Street

Personality Traits

Classic Leo: G Mann loves getting peoples attention. He's a joker, a storyteller, a flirt and an artist. The name G Mann is tagged all over Everbrook. In weird places. Hard to reach places. Places that there is no real access to. When it comes to tagging, drawing, painting, G Mann loves a challenge. In fact, Art might just be the only thing he takes seriously. It's certainly the only class he does well in.

Short Fuse: He's also got his dad's anger issues, and is quick to stand up and get tough over any perceived insult or threat. He doesn't really pick fights though. He's just a little too ready to believe that the other guy wants to pick a fight with him. The funny thing is when people actually try to get a rise out of him, he can usually see right through it and keep his cool.

Criminal Minded: Trust is not something he gives out too freely. G might go along with you. That doesn't mean he isn't keeping an eye on you. It's because he doesn't trust people that he always carries a weapon on him. Just a knife for now. But his dad's guns are still in the house.

Lowkey Athletic: Most kids from Courtland Street are good at running, climbing fences, fighting, and basketball. G isn't the strongest. But he does have some muscle. He's fast, has good balance, and has hops.

Undiscovered Nightmares: Some major bad vibes happened at home when he was too young to remember. At least thats what G thinks. He actually has blocked out memories and undiagnosed PTSD. And triggers that he isn't even aware of yet.

Family History/Backstory

Dark Shadows From the Past

Shen Zhao lived at 306 Courtland Street since before his son Gilbert was born. Shen Zhao is in prison on multiple drug trafficking charges now. His wife, Mei, is Gilbert's stepmother. His real mother left when he was very young. His father never went into detail about what happened and Gilbert figures he's probably better off not knowing.

Gilbert grew up around crime, guns, drugs, chaos, violence and madness. He heard more explicit language in his house by the time he was five than any R-rated movie or rap album could ever aspire to have. As far a G is concerned blood doesn't really make family, though.

Jason Thorne, Tyrone White, Donald Stevenson, and Daimond McCann were his real family growing up. Daimond was Tyrone's girlfriend. And when she disappeared mysteriously, it was he that went nuts first and got the rest if the crew riled up enough to go looking for her.

He said one of the rich girls from Everbrook Circle bet her that she wouldn't last a night alone at the Raeburn Lodge. Said they put up some good money against Daimond waiting on them or something, so she accepted. But the Courtland kids didn't find anything at the Lodge other than dust, mold, rat feces and some real bad feelings.

Tyrone seemed different when they got back. He stopped coming outside, and when he did he woukd talk some death and destruction, horror movie stuff. After a few weeks of him getting stranger and stranger, they heard Tyrone took his own life. Shortly after that the police came and arrested Gilbert's dad for selling drugs.

Flee the Sunrise of a Better Future

After his dad went to prison, Gilbert stopped wanting to be called by his name. His friends had already shortened It to G, anyway. But soon he started going by G Mann. And then he started tagging his new name on walls. And the Courtland Street Mafia was born.

At first, it was just him and Jason and some other Courtland kids at the old Holbrook Mill. And eventually some of the more ballsy and/or delinquent Applen residents got involved in the crew. That was when Courtland Street Mafia tags became less prevalent in town. And more weird and surreal art starred appearing in harder to reach places.

But things have been pretty peaceful since his dad went to jail four years ago. His step mom started pretending to be a decent respectable lady. At least more than she used to when her husband was around. But she doesn't really pay much attention to what G Mann does at home or at school. She just gets high and hangs out with her girls all the time.

Every time he gets home it's Mei and co. laughing at something on TV in the middle of a cloud of marijuana smoke. Usually Kiki White, Ella Brooks, Jionna Stevenson, and Dawn Brennan. All Courtland Street residents as well. But sometimes the roster changes.

Other Info

He gets around town on his skateboard that he doesn't know any tricks for. He always has weed on him. And he is amazingly skilled at not letting people get close to him. And yet still being very social. He has some mental battle scars but he isn't about to let anybody see that. His dad used to say "it's ok to bleed, but never let these sharks smell it."

G has a the same summer job lined up that he had last year: Selling cheap weed to Everbrook Circle kids at a ridiculously high mark up. They fall for it every time. Just like another thing his dad used to say "All you gotta do is put a high price tag on your product, and most of these fools will just automatically assume it's top quality."

His real ambition for the summer is to tag a couple of wrap around murals on on the chimneys on the roof of the public library building. But that's going to take some planning. And some finesse. And some plain luck.

Although his father speaks Cantonese, he never learned a word of it. And his step mom claims to know a little bit of Mandarin but she can never seem to remember any. Besides, growing up in Everbrook, it never seemed that important to speak the language or have a sense of ethnic cultural identity. After all, his parents had that and look where it got them.
