Yes yes. Because everyone loves supernatural beings.
And no one has a circus RP.
.....
I think.
ANYWAY.
On to le plot!
Plot
Welcome to Cirque Du Pouvoirs, where the acts are so convincing you could almost believe they're real. There are magicians, acrobats, extreme contortionists. All with powers so mystifying you won't believe your eyes.
But you really, really should.
Lately, audience members have started going missing from this world-renowned circus. They volunteer to be a part of the act, and though they always return to their seats unscathed, by the time the show is over, they are gone. The founder and ringleader of the circus, a man named Shax Pouvoirs, appears as baffled by these disappearances as everyone else, but he knows a secret that the audience doesn't --his acts are supernatural beasts. And he is convinced that one of his acts is behind them, and everyone is suspicious of everyone else..

The result shall be an RP filled with mistrust, murder, romance, and whatever else happens, yeah? 8D
So basically. Join with your supernatural character. Whatever you want, so long as the powers can be used to entertain. If you want to be the one behind the attacks, let me know in your bio, and I'll like, draw names out of a hat to decide who it is. Then I'll rmail you and let you know if its you, because its not very much fun if we all know who it is, is it? There may or may not be more than one attacker; depends on how many characters there are.

  • Rules
1. Be cool. Don't be a jerk to someone because you don't like their character or whatever.
2. If at any point you wish to leave the roleplay, let me know so that we can have fun killing your character off 3. Res rules apply. You can curse and whatnot, but nothing above like pg-13 or whatever.
4. Violence and romance and whatnot are allowed
5. Don't have more characters than you can handle. Two, MAYBE three max.
6. Don't particularly care how long your posts are, so long as they've got proper grammar and accurate spelling. Well, accurate enough to figure out what you're trying to say. Be close; there's spell-check available.
7. We'll post in order, so no one gets left behind. =3
8. Post the sentence "Never Eat Soggy Waffles." in a random color to show you've read this. Otherwise I'll kick you.

Mah Bios:
Name: Shax Pouvoirs

Gender: Male

Age: Looks 23, is really about 107.

Power/Species: Warlock. He can preform magic and has heightened senses.

Act: He's the ring leader, so for the most part he just introduces the acts and makes sure things go smoothly. Once in a while, though, he'll preform a few magic tricks in between acts.

Appearance:

Personality: (Feel free to RP it out, as well) He's kind of insane, and gets bored very easily. He's been around for a while, so he opened the circus to cure his boredom. He flirts with pretty much everyone, but he hardly ever means anything by it. He's generally a good guy, and though he likes mischief, he doesn't like it when people get hurt --especially not at his circus. He treats the members of his circus like family and cares about them very much, but in the end, he'd rather hurt one of them than put the rest of them in danger. He's a bit of a dork.

How Long Have You Been At The Circus?: Since the very beginning, baby!

D'you Fancy Being The Murderer/Evil Guy?: Absolutely not! Why would he sabotage his own circus?

Anything else?: The circus is his baby. Just saying.

((Sounds Like an interesting RP. :3 May I join? Also, is this like... a regular circus, or a freak show/dark circus like in Cirque Du Freak?))
((Edit:// Never Eat Soggy Waffles. *facepalm*))
Bios
Name: Arc Lancelot
Gender: Male, Although he's slightly Transgender/Genderless.
Age: 19, believe it or not.
Species/Power: Nekomimi
Act: Due to his powers, Arc has incredible cat balance as well as a steady hand and pin-point accuracy with pretty much anything, although he prefers knives. He performs tricks on the tightrope, and is an excellent knife thrower both with his hands and with his tail.
Appearance:

Personality: As you can probably tell from his picture, Arc is more of a timid and shy person. He acts more like a child, than anything else. He tries his best to make others happy, even at his own expense, and will do anything to make sure he has a place and home to belong to.
He's a bit sensitive, and almost confused about his gender, which results in him confusing everyone else who knows him. He likes having a boy's body (although it is slightly feminine), but he has a more feminine/genderless mindset and doesn't like being referred to as really anything. It's complex, but he rather people refer to him as a guy than an it, because he finds being called it offensive.
((It's also so confusing Arc's creator doesn't even really know how to describe it.))
How Long Have You Been At The Circus?: Six years. What happened to him before is a mystery that he won't talk about.
D'you Fancy Being The Murderer/Evil Guy?: I highly doubt he could even if I wanted him to.
Anything else?: He is attracted to men only. Take that as Gay/Straight or whatever the hell you think it is. xD

Something about soggy waffles? They sound gross; I wouldn't eat them. ;(

Name: Cobra 'Fedora' Darcy

Nickname: Fedora

Gender: Female

Age: Seventeen, but acts mature for her age. She's constantly mistaken to be in her early twenties.

Power/Species: Snake whisperer, plus she can shape-shift into most venomous species.

Act: Playing around with various dangerous snakes to awe the crowd, making them do interesting things, as well as shape-shifting into a snake and allowing another member to 'make' her do amazing acts.

Her favourite is turning into a cobra and then playing the guessing game, where multiple members of the crowd will give up a personal ob
ject and then whoever is 'controlling' Cobra at the time will have her return them to the right owner, without any interference.


Appearance: Cobra looks pretty manly from a distance, and she gives not a whit about appearance. Pale skin that occasionally burns or tans and dark freckles slanting sharply across the bridge of her nose and the top of her cheeks. Her eyes are olive green and somewhat narrow, generally unfriendly in appearance. Being of mixed British-Italian heritage Cobra has a rather straight and slender 'Italian' nose, silky black hair, and sharp cheekbones and chin. Her hair isn't that long, but reaches past her shoulders. She tends to keep it in a low horsetail.

Cobra is around 5'8" and has a medium build. While not over-weight (she's rather slender for her height) she has those rocking Italian hips and is around average, maybe even around less than average, in the chest area. Cobra is athletic and has been from childhood, therefore she does have a mannish appearance from a distance.

Cobra always wears her archetypal fedora hat (male) which is charcoal gray with a black band around it. She also never goes out without her black greatcoat, unless the weather is too warm. Other than that she enjoys casual clothes such as jeans, tank-tops and Converse.

Personality: Cobra is down-to-earth and very realistic. She doesn't bother with 'fantastic' ideas and came to terms with her abilities rather quickly because of this. So long as proof exists Cobra can believe anything. Cobra does not view the world in black or white, or not even gray. She actually dismisses the idea of good and evil and says that everyone is inherently one or the other, no matter what, and that viewing things as good and bad is just a way to limit one's perspective.

Cobra does not care much for a person's personality, more for their deeds.

How Long Have You Been At The Circus?: Since she was twelve. Makes that five years.

D'you Fancy Being The Murderer/Evil Guy?: Really, she couldn't care less. (read personality)

Anything else?: Fluent in Italian and can speak with a British accent if she wants. She does have a flair for acting and can actually imitate most accents after hearing them.
