@NarayanK Just saying, the person who asked the landowner about the 'alarm clock'/Yagamine wasn't Maurice but Number Six.

I should probably just say this in case it might become a problem later down the road.

I won't necessarily have internet access every single day. It's why I picked this RP in the first place since the pacing seemed to be a fair bit more relaxing, but it's probably good etiquette to mention that regardless. I'm (not very) busy with university, that much I can take responsibility for, but my main source of internet outside of university isn't really mine and I don't have reliable access to it. Hopefully it won't lead to any problems but yeah, hope to have a pleasant RP experience in spite of that.

With luggage bag in hand, Maurice Brown exerted as much confidence as he could in each step he took as he walked towards the location of his new residency. He was in truth rather nervous about the possibility of having his bag's contents exposed as they contained many, many things. Rare occult books not found in stores, survival kits, make-shift weapons, anything one could possibly hope for in the event of a sudden alien invasion. He was fairly sure not everything in his bag was legal to carry around.

To an unassuming stranger he would seem to be a simple company worker with a large luggage bag. He could pretend it was just clothes but he merely hoped it wouldn't attract attention in the first place

As he turned around a corner he saw what was a small but steadily growing(and rather noisy) crowd gathering in front of a small homely gate. It was without a doubt Maple 801 - 101. Maurice guessed they were fellow new cohabitants or such, and walked towards a woman cleaning the premises for she seemed most likely to be the one in charge.

"Are you perhaps the landowner here? I am Maurice Brown, new resident. If you will, call me Brown. Or a nickname will suffice too. I can't say I'm too fond of 'Maurice'. It's very nice to meet you."

Room 7's Occupant

Appearance

Name: Maurice Brown

Age: 27

Gender: Male

Occupation: Despite his wild looks he's a salaryman who works in a neighboring city. He's not a company owner but his wages are fairly high nevertheless, which allows him to commute from Maple Apartment even though it's rather far away.

Personality: A charismatic man with both competence and sociability. He's light-hearted and polite, meticulous but not strict. He pays his bills on time and greets his neighbors. He participates in local activities as long as they don't require too much stamina. He may be a little behind on technology, owning a cheap laptop he uses mostly for work but in general he's a jolly person who spends most of his free time socializing and reading.

However he's also quite paranoid and is under the belief that aliens have secretly blended into modern society, and has taken up arms to defend mankind from them. He has a stockpile of occult-ish books written on the subject, and a variety of survival kits and self-defense tools he's prepared in case he encounters one, hidden somewhere in his room. He's quite a survival nut, in other words. He'd be out in the streets actively hunting aliens now but he subconsciously realizes he's still too weak to deal with them and thus, is still waiting for his time to shine.

He knows that his level of paranoia is rather unnatural and will do anything to hide this truth from other people, going to extreme measures if he must.

Background: He watched too much television as a kid, and an occult show scared him. Later when he began working he became convinced one of his co-workers was an alien and began to avoid him. Ever since, his irregular life as a (faux) alien hunter began.

Room Number: 7

<Snipped quote by Frau Koujiro>

The quality is exceptionally good but it might be a tad bit dark ^-^;;; Maybe he could act paranoid and comically serious (or maybe humorously violent thoughts could work too) to extremely epic extents around weird people, but killing is a bit dark for something like this <.<;;;

I like where it's going tho! It could just use a bit of a tweak to fit into the RP

@NarayanK

Yeah, I didn't intend to have him kill anyone on-screen. I just thought that a serial killer pretending to be a suave guy trying to hide evidence of his wrongdoings could lead to some fun hijinks.

I could probably remove him actually being a serial killer and leave him with just being a paranoid conspiracy theorist though. Something like that fine?

The Maple Neighborhood [Comedy / Episodic Slice-of-Life]

I'm new and all but if that's fine then I'm interested.

Here's a CS.

Room 7's Occupant

Appearance

Name: Maurice Brown

Age: 27

Gender: Male

Occupation: Despite his wild looks he's a salaryman who works in a neighboring city. He's not a company owner but his wages are fairly high nevertheless, which allows him to commute from Maple Apartment even though it's rather far away. He's also a serial killer, but unfortunately not an alien.

Personality: A charismatic man with both competence and sociability. He's light-hearted and polite, meticulous but not strict. He pays his bills on time and greets his neighbors. He participates in local activities as long as they don't require too much stamina. He may be a little behind on technology, owning a cheap laptop he uses mostly for work but in general he's a jolly person who spends most of his free time relaxing.

However he's also a killer who targets people he suspects to be aliens in disguise. He's actually quite paranoid and has come to believe aliens have secretly blended into modern society and has taken up arms(oftentimes a kitchen knife) to defend mankind from them. He keeps his kills as far away from his apartment room as possible in order to avoid suspicion. Likewise he's decided not to harm anyone in Maple 801 - 101's vicinity. He's aware one of the residents is a detective but he's confident he can keep his obsession hidden well enough. He has a number of alien-related books along with several dangerous-looking tools hidden somewhere in his rather small room, and would do absolutely anything to keep them that way.

Background: He watched too much television as a kid, and an occult show scared him. Later when he began working he became convinced one of his co-workers was an alien and after much thought disposed of him. His irregular killing spree began soon after that.

Room Number: 7

Not sure if having a serial killer character is too dark but I thought throwing someone like that in could make things pretty wild.

Hello world

The BoC song is pretty catchy after all

I'm new, I joined for fairly uninteresting reasons, thought I might make an account even if I might just mostly lurk at first.

I'm not very good with RP-ing, I cannot get a feel for it for some reason, so a dedicated forum might work out better in that regard. I also enjoy reading through tabletop RPG rulebooks, I guess? And I enjoy anime, manga, the usual stuff.
