Short Introduction
There are many things to worry about on the very first day of school. Getting lost and missing all of your classes as you hopelessly wander the halls, being assigned a particularly cranky teacher with a hobby of staying late after class to keep kids for detention, being served boiled cabbage or sprouts or some other practically inedible thing in the canteen. But by far the biggest concern is the possibility of spending your school years by yourself, of failing to find your crowd. What if no-one else likes what you like? Or if you can’t find anyone else who listens to the songs of your favourite band? What if you are left with nothing to talk about with anyone you meet?
Under any other circumstance, this group would never have mixed. An assortment of different personalities with an array of interests, they are nothing alike, but they are forced together when their teacher divides the class into small groups to do a task. Who would have known that they would still be inseparable in years to come?
Info
Copied from my interest check thread:
The RP revolves around a group of 11-12 year old children who meet sometime Mid-September in the classroom on their first day of school, observing their relationships with one another as they grow older, keeping each-other sane through the cranky teachers and gruelling piles of math homework that each day brought. No-one would have guessed back then how close they would come to be, that they would still be sitting together in their favourite bar years later, ranting about scary bosses and weird colleagues over glasses of wine and laughing at jokes that would make little sense to anyone outside their circle.
We will play out all the major events in their lives, from the night of their first sleepover as kids to the week that they jet away on their first trip abroad as a group. Perhaps they will be known for getting into trouble as teens for throwing secret parties that always get out of hand, maybe they decide to become flatmates as adults or all conveniently end up attending the same university, anything to stay together. There will be some major fights, gossip and bouts of drama that threatens to rip them apart forever, and there will be many romantic relationships that form both within and beyond the group.
A major aspect of this Roleplay will be character development, with our characters changing and growing as people in response to the situations that they face. We would have a discussion thread to come up with new plot ideas, in addition to deciding when to skip forward a few days/months/years (which will be needed in order to move the RP forward)
Example Form
: You can change/delete/add things as you wish. As mentioned, our characters will grow and change as the RP progresses, hence the emphasis on this being their personality/appearance at the start of the rp.
