Realistic or Modern Tales of Shade House

[Maxx]

The stench filled the house, leaking through the walls, seeping into clothing and skin. Weeks went past, months went past, and the smell only worsened. Not even the strongest air fresheners could cover it. No matter what they did, they could not get rid of it, nor could they find the source. Eventually, they had enough. They sold the house, before disappearing as quick as they could. It all happened so fast, the neighbours didn’t realise they had left for a few days. When they did, they just figured that they must have left overnight. Who knew.

Not long after, a group of new people moved in. Strangers it seemed, part of a new house-share program, each person paying a fraction of the already low house price. None of them noticed anything unusual about the house, other than a locked closet in the largest bedroom that none of them could find the key for. The house was smaller on the inside than it appeared to be from the outside, but it was still quite big. Fully furnished, a full loft conversion, even a basement perfect for use as a games room, or whatever else they wanted it to be. The house was perfect for them. Until the day one of them disappeared...


Hey all. So, today is Easter, the one day of the year you can eat your body weight in chocolate without getting judged, so I thought it's a perfect time for... A horror-themed RP.

It'll be fun to see if people have any guesses as to what is happening with this house, but anyways. The story will begin when the housemates move in, before one of them disappears (it will be one of my characters disappearing, hence why I've got two characters). There are five housemates altogether, so three open spots. That number might change, depending on how much interest this gets.

Name: Jacob “Jakey” Mikela
Age: 22
Gender: Male

Appearance
Jakey is 6 foot 2 inches, with a slim but muscular build. He has a seemingly constant tan, most likely due to his relationship with spray tan. His brown hair is usually styled with excess amounts of gel, and the look in his gray eyes tends to give the impression that he feels he is better than everyone else. His attire reflects this, with his immaculate shirt and smart trousers, worn even when he has nowhere to be.

Background
Jakey was born the only child of an extremely wealthy couple. Growing up, he always got what he wanted from his parents. He was popular in school, due to both his money, and the fact he was the captain of many of the school’s sports teams. Like most rich kids, he got into a fair bit of trouble, which his father always bailed him out of. Following an argument with his parents, some stupid thing about them buying him the wrong easter egg, he moved out. He was given enough money to cover his share of the house he was moving into, but that was it.

Extra
He does have work… As a librarian in a local library. Not that he lets anyone know this.


Name: Luna Lilith
Age: 21
Gender: Female

Appearance
Luna is a girl of average height, about five and a half feet tall, slightly underweight, and paler than most as a result of preferring to stay inside, even when it’s wonderful outside. Her naturally black hair has been cut short and partially dyed electric blue, and her eyes are a bright green. She mostly wears varying shades of black, blue, and purple, mainly in the form of leggings, a tee shirt, and her ever-present black hoodie, with which she always wears the same pair of trainers she’s owned for the past four or five years.

Background
Luna is the second child of a single mother, with two younger siblings coming along later. Her mother worked long hours to make sure everyone was fed and clothed and had a roof over their heads. In school, Luna was ostracized for the way she dressed and behaved, but it never bothered her. So what if people didn’t like her, it weren’t like their opinions mattered. When she was about fourteen, she nearly got in huge trouble on Good Friday. Her mother had been ill and unable to work. So Luna stole a few easter eggs, as well as other easter chocolate, for her siblings. The security guard in the shop noticed, and she narrowly avoided being arrested. Instead, someone who looked similar was arrested, and her siblings enjoyed their easter. Recently, Luna got a job in the local Mcdonald’s, giving half of what she earns to her mother, and moved out of her childhood home.

Extra
As well as her hoodie, Luna is never seen without her headphones, whether they are over her ears or around her neck.​
