My idea is that you would play Kenny's father and his children from a different relationship, none of whom Kenny has ever met. Kenny's father got scared and ran off when he found out Kenny's mother was pregnant with him, and the couple never saw one another again. She died giving birth to Kenny, and your character never found out. He has fallen on hard times and run out of money and Kenny's maternal grandmother is allowing him and his kids to come stay with them because she knows Kenny's mother would have wanted it, and drama ensues. I was thinking that there could be two kids around Kenny's age (16-18, I have other characters that'll come in at various points, so you won't be doing all the work). Your character feels guilty for abandoning his eldest son, and wants to get to know him, but isn't quite sure how to react to him not being quite what he expected. The reactions of his kids are up to you. Any takers?
My requirements:
Age: 19
Occupation:
Drag/burlesque performer, student
Gender:
Gender fluid with no pronoun preference
Sexuality:
Gray asexual, predominantly attracted to men
Physical Description:
Kenny is thin and average height, about 5'9. His hair is black and wild, almost always sticking up. His eyes are dark brown and he wears thick rimmed black glasses. His nails are almost always painted, and are filed into sharp "cat claws." In drag he is very flamboyant and over the top feminine. Out of drag he keeps his style fairly androgynous, occasionally wearing small amounts of makeup.
Personality:
Kenny is friendly and responsible, often protective over his foster sister Mabel, and his drag siblings since he is the eldest out of them. He is patient, which comes in handy helping his grandmother care for the numerous foster children who are always coming and going from the home. He is a bit of a perfectionist, especially when it comes to performing
Bio:
Kenny's mother Mali died giving birth to him, and he has spent his entire life being raised by his grandmother alongside the many foster children she has taken in and cared for. Kenny never met his father, and has no desire to ever meet him. His grandmother taught him to speak Thai as a boy, as his grandmother grew up in Thailand, and as a result Kenny is fluent in both Thai and English. He grew up struggling with his gender identity, not sure if he felt like a man or a woman. He started going to gay bars just to watch the drag shows. He eventually built up the courage to try drag himself, using the name Lucy Diamond. It became a way to deal with his gender issues. His drag was sloppy at first, but he eventually improved under the guidance of the older drag queens, particularly one by the name of Cherie Riot, who out of drag was named Switch Vanity and was in a rock band. He became Kenny's mentor and drag mother. The two of them became very close both in and out of drag. He is also very close with a drag king closer to his own age called Tommy Gunn, who out of drag is a skinny lesbian named Haley Porter. His other best friend is a drag queen a year younger than him, Lita Riot, out of drag named Cody Rodriguez.

Sumalee is a tiny old lady. Her hair has gone from black to gray, and she keeps it short. Her eyes are brown and she is overweight.
Personality:
Sumalee is stern at times, but loves her foster children and grandson fiercely. She is extremely supportive of her grandson, and often affectionately refers to him as a "kathoey"--a Thai word meaning "lady boy."
Bio:
Sumalee grew up in Thailand, and speaks fluent Thai as a result. She lived there until her early twenties, when she immigrated to America and met her husband. She had one daughter, Mali, who died giving birth to her son–Sumalee's only grandchild Kenny.

Physical Description:
Mabel is of average build, with a round face and wide, dark brown eyes. Her hair is black, fair, and straight.
Personality:
Mabel is bubbly and a friend to all. She is very sensitive, and doesn't like seeing things hurt, even insects. She catches insects in the house in jars and releases them. She is especially fond of Kenny, and can often be found following him around.
Bio:
Mabel's parents gave her up for adoption as a baby for an unknown reason. She was fostered by Sumalee shortly after, and Sumalee is in the process of officially adopting her. She, like Kenny and Sumalee, is of Thai descent, and is being taught to speak the language by Sumalee, though she often mixes up her words and switches from thai to english in the same sentence.
My requirements:
- Please don't join the RP, and then drop it right in the middle. It bugs me when people only post once, or post a few times and then just leave.
- Please be advanced. At least four paragraphs per post with good spelling, grammar, and detail. I can make exceptions at times. This is a big thing for me. I get annoyed when people can't similarly match my post lengths. If you 'typ LIek diss' and don't use decent capitalization and punctuation, or use long run on sentences I'll most likely drop the thread or ignore the request to RP with me. Everyone makes mistakes, and I understand that, but if you can't manage basic grammar then please don't ask to RP with me. If you can't think of what to reply with, PM me and I can add a bit more. I would prefer you to match my length. Also, so I know you read this, tell me your favorite color when you express interest. Otherwise you will be ignored.
- Be active PLEASE. I'm online most every day. I haven't Rped in a while due to real life issues, and I understand you might need to drop. If you do please PM me first.
