Title: Murdering Beauty & Passion
Series: Disney
Rating: Strong PG-13, possibly R for potential violence.
Leaders: Jess
Status: Active

Storyline:
Quote:
 
The incredibly wealthy extended Yensid family come together for a formal gathering held every five years on their private island. But when a storm strands them there with no outside contact strange things start happening. Loyalties are questioned, secrets are reveled, and people start dying. And what's this about the island being haunted by someone or something called Malificient...


Characters Taken:

  • Eleanor "Lady" Tremaine née Yensid-Jess
  • Elizabeth Swann (daughter of Lilian Swann née Yensid)-Jess
  • Mozenrath Setkemet (grandson of Morgana Setkemet née Yensid)-Jess
  • Eric Di Costa (Son of Gia Yensid)-Jodi
  • Esmeralda Yensid née Leonte (Widow of Johnathon aka "Long John Silver" Yensid)-Jodi
  • Vanessa Buchanan-Carroll, a maid-Mare
Characters Needed:

  • Members of two generations of the Yensid family. The "parents" who should be around thirty-five to fifty and the "kids" who can be from five to twenty-five. Parent characters can have kids younger than that, but they should be written as having been left at home.
  • Close friends and lovers of family members who may have accompanied them to the island. (i.e. since Elizabeth is a member, if someone wants to play Will as her fiancé who comes along, that's fine.)
  • Servants of the Yensid family.
All Disney characters are welcome except those created for Disney Channel and Disney XD original shows and movies (High School Musical, Hannah Montana, Kim Possible, Phineas and Ferb, etc.). Walden co-productions (Holes, Narnia), Studio Ghibli, Marvel, or The Muppets. Non-human characters will need to be made human and magical characters will not have their powers. The setting is going to be an initially realistic 1950's.

Characters can *believe* in magic/the supernatural but any acts of 'magic' either MUST have a mundane explanation OR have no physical evidence of having occurred. (I.e. Elizabeth says Mozenrath shape-shifted into a clone of her but then turned back. She could be either lying or crazy.)

Since this is meant to be a murder-mystery, some things to keep in mind:

1) If you sign up you may be tapped to be a victim or even a murderer. If either of the above will bother you, this probably isn't the RP for you.

2) You can tweak your character's personality according to the above. i.e. they seem like their normal self, but secretly are more like their Neganimation counterpart. Or vice-versa.

3) To keep the suspense and mystery going, in present day scenes inner monologue (“my character thought/felt”) should be kept to a minimum. Flashbacks revealing that kind of information are fine. Also, feel free to mislead, but there shouldn’t be outright lies in narration i.e. the murderer silently wondering who killed someone. (The murderer *saying* something like that is absolutely okay.) But feel free to have that character's own perception of things be skewed for whatever reason.

4) I really want this to move along swiftly, so once this gets started people should be posting no more than a week after their last post. Related to this, if you fall behind without saying something beforehand, (and it‘s totally understandable if some people do), your character may be written out of any scene you are currently in and disappear/show up dead.

So let me know if anyone has characters you're interested in including and I'll PM you with what roles in the plot I think might be good fits for them. And if you have any questions post them here as well. :)

Hello! ^-^ I play Merlin from Disney's The Sword and the Stone and when I saw this post, I had a feeling that Merlin and Yensid would be really good freinds. He could know if Yensid might have angered somebody enough to make that person kill him.It's just a thought. xD
