The music is pulsing, the drinks are flowing and there isn’t a frown in sight. Everyone is partying and having the best time. Then the lights go out. A few people screaming & cheer, but the music stops as well. This isn’t planned. After a few seconds murmurs start building up. People are bored. If there’s no music, they might as well leave. Except, the door isn’t opening. The bouncers are outside and they can’t yank it open either? In fact, no one inside can even hear the people outside. Panic starts to form. No one knows what’s going on. The only light sources are a few battery-operated coloured lights around the club and the glow of the glow-in-the-dark bracelets. How will they figure out what’s going on?
Welcome to the mini-drop for event one. There’s a magical blackout!! No one knows who did it or why it’s happening, but the people inside and stuck without power and the people outside can’t get in. Feel free to finish up stuff from before the blackout or even start a few short threads. The main threads should happen from the blackout on. In-game the blackout happened at 12:30am. Under the cut, you’ll find where your character is during the event. Please start a thread or threads with the other characters with yours. THESE THREADS WILL BE MANDATORY. Not partaking in the drop will put you immediately (after the end of the event) on an activity check. Please message the main if you have extenuating circumstances. If you have any questions don’t hesitate to ask. Otherwise, happy blackout.
Someone spotted Faye Chamberlain, Stiles Stilinski & Elena Gilbert near the washrooms before the lights went out. Hope they’re not stuck in any of the stalls. 
Elijah Mikaelson & Lydia Lockwood were at the bar. A few bottles could be heard breaking, hope no one got cut.
Scott McCall, Allison Argent & Caroline Forbes were outside when the doors shut. No one has heard from them and they can’t get a hold of them. Is the outside still okay? Are the people on the inside going to survive without them?
Kol Mikaelson, Klaus Mikaelson & Diana Meade are on the dancefloor. Someone fainted, another person started a fight. Chaos is breaking out. Here’s hoping these three don’t get dragged in.

WELCOME BACK STUDENTS
It’s September once again and Constance College is welcoming you here. The campus will be active all week long with little activities here and there. The conclusion will come on Friday with our back to school charity event! It will be a dance thrown in town at Sinema club. There will be wristbands given at the door to take note of who can drink and who can’t. Entrance is $5 which goes to a charity of students choice! A voting bowl will be placed at the bar. We can’t wait to see you all there!
Basically, the first event is a club night at Sinema but is open to all ages. Those of you playing slightly underage characters can have a fake ID if you want or come in and not drink. The event will begin Friday the 6th at 7pm EDT and will go until Tuesday 7pm EDT in real life, but will just be the evening of September 6th in game. You’re welcome to have characters talk about the event leading and post outfits for the night. Please tag any outfits with mortem:event01!! Otherwise, have fun and we’ll have an official post on Friday to start the event.

PLOT ARC I
Everything special comes in threes. Three rings of fire burned that night. First, it was the heart of Boyd, ripped from his chest. Then it was the unexpected Jenna Sommers. Despite Stefan’s please to switch places, she fed off Greta Martin and was promptly staked. The witch, presumed to have been kidnapped as well, finally made it clear she was taking part by choice and died at the hands of Klaus. All that was left was to drain the doppelganger of blood. Without even removing the gag, Klaus drained the life from Katherine Pierce who he believed at the time to be Elena Gilbert.
IT’S BEEN THREE MONTHS SINCE THAT ACCURSED RITUAL.
Klaus has been able to make a handful of hybrids now. He keeps them and his siblings tucked away in his mansion. No one is sure what his next move will be. All that people are sure of is the chaotic energy swirling in the air. But is that just because of the original hybrid? Or does it have to do with something else entirely?

WELCOME, Lynn !! You’ve been accepted for the role of Caroline Forbes. We’re so excited to have you join the ante mortem family. Please look over the checklist and make sure to send in your account within 48 hours. We look forward to seeing you on our dash.
OUT OF CHARACTER
Name / Alias: Lynn
Age: 23
Pronouns: she/her
Timezone: est
Anything Else?: I just graduated university and moved back to America? I suppose as a fun fact if that’s what you’re looking for, oh and I love to bake pies.
IN CHARACTER
Desired Character: Caroline Forbes
Why?: It’s probably redundant to say that I love Caroline, most likely even more so to say that it has to do with the fact that she has some of the best character growth that I’ve ever seen in a tv show. Followed unfortunately by a pretty strong regression, but she still has remained my favourite character that always seems to rear her head again once I think I’ve forgotten about her, which is a stubborn hearted persistence which honestly is pure Caroline. I think my favourite thing about Caroline isn’t the label that she’s good because there’s a lot of times where Caroline isn’t a good person or falters as a good vampire, what she is however and what is probably leagues more important is kind. Caroline grows to be exceptionally kind and perceptive and I think it’s amazing. I could go on more but then my application would be a 30 page rant about why Caroline Forbes is amazing and honestly if you accept me you’ll get it in small snippets at a time. Why I want to write her in this rp specifically however is that Caroline is by far the best at being a Vampire, it’s her at her best self and in a lot of ways I think it’s her final destiny. But here she’s a human instead and that is fascinating to me, it’s refreshing from always tackling her from one end of her story. I like the fact that she was able to grow into herself a bit by going into college, but there’s still those human insecurities woven into her at the same time that I get to play with. I think this is a once in a life time writing wise chance to explore this, as it doesn’t appear to be a very common theme. I also like that she has family, family relationships is one of my favourite things to write next to friendships. They really define a person and I think Caroline benefits from having family around her and her cousin just seems like a fun interaction to me. She’s an excessively loyal person after all and with how heavily she lays that loyalty upon her friends imagine the sort of things she’d be willing to go through for blood.
Character Pronouns: she/her
Sexuality & Ships: I personally see Caroline as Pansexual, I think she doesn’t really care much for gender so much as the person and just what about them attracts her. Caroline just wants someone who will love and listen to her, just someone who will care half as much as she does. Not even considering what she’s always settling for unfortunately. I also like to think of it as a bonding point for her and her Dad, just a sweet little hc of mine. I’m fairly open with shipping for Caroline I like her with people who respect her so that’s a very low statistic in her actual dating life, I liked her and Matt not as a forever situation but they were good at the time, I like Klaroline he had a lot of respect for her agency and wanted more for her which was lovely. I don’t ship Steroline I think being with Stefan really regressed a lot of Care’s progression which was frustrating and I’m also not a huge fan of Forwood I liked them for a short while but their relationship in the end just ended up being bad for the both of them. Outside of that I’m pretty open with her as a person and who she dates it really just comes down to chemistry. I love her having an ex though in Jake and I really love that at the end of their relationship even if she got him to start opening up in the end it was someone else who made the true positive change in him. It really falls into the inferiority complex she grew up with and I think would be an even bigger slap in the face than him dumping her in the first place. At the time, she would definitely still be petty enough to be angry that he found that happiness somewhere else rather than with her. Now however that’s definitely has changed although she’s not too thrilled about seeing him again considering how shitty of a boyfriend he was.
Occupation: In Legacies Caroline is a headmistress and I understand it she has a fantastic skill of purely just being an excellent Vampire and helping others master the art too, it makes sense. Their choice of putting her in broadcast journalism felt a little out of left field, I suppose it plays into her inquisitive nature Care does have a habit of wheedling information out of people but for who she was then it didn’t make all too much sense. I’d like to believe Caroline did start out as a drama major in school but soon transferred over to business when she found her passionate singing voice wasn’t getting her where she wanted to be. She swapped over to a basic business major graduating top of her class as is only the Forbes way. At the end however she was felt with an empty feeling of having no real set plan for what she wanted to do with her business degree so she took the only reasonable follow up. Getting a Master’s degree, it felt like the easiest answer to avoid making a choice while also continuing forward with an upward momentum while she went about figuring it out. Caroline Forbes did not fumble anything in life and she wasn’t about to let anyone catch her at odds end especially with the strain in all of her relationships recently. Currently her degree is in business administration as she feels a tentative pull towards making a career out of event planning. I’d like to see in the future her straying away and possibly changing her major to something in paper journalism following her trying to figure out what the hell it is everyone is so intent on keeping hidden from her. But her final destination with her degree and job will come out when she discovers her purpose. I like the idea of someone as pointed and goal oriented as Caroline floundering slightly in settling down her future for now she tells people she has event planning in her future with all the confidence an actual sure Caroline Forbes would use. I have no idea how much sense this makes.
Headcanons:
·       Caroline knows how to shoot a gun and is licenced, but not just that she’s good at it too. It’s not a skill many would expect of her but her Mother is one of the sheriffs of the town and even in a place as safe as she’s been told as Chance Falls it’s still been taught to her as a necessary skill. There’s a shotgun in the house and she’s been taught where it is and the combo for the safe to get to it. What Caroline isn’t aware of however is that the shot gun has been loaded with wooden bullets for many years now. She’s been taught to never welcome anyone into their home without her Mom’s express permission, and when she was a teenager the habit stuck around for a while, at times due to her cousin’s pointed reminders. Since going away to college however the habit has waned to the point of her welcoming and natural hostess nature often leading her now to welcome those she doesn’t know quite so well into her home. While it hasn’t led to anything bad yet only time can tell if this habit will come back to bite her. Tristan’s slow return to her life, as Caroline can hold a rather icy grudge will be good for this, help him have a nice starting base to work from.
·       As a teenager Caroline existed as the defining factor of what was cool, effortless party planning, dating bad boys, always having perfectly curled hair and being at the top academically and a leader? Easy. What wasn’t easy in her endless quest to be seen at the pinnacle of her school’s social scene was getting a tattoo. Especially when your Mother was one of the sheriffs, however that very title also meant that little attention was paid to Caroline on the regular that she was able to do this grand feat. She started simple, a small star on her foot done at a seedy parlour willing to overlook a poorly done fake ID. Naturally enough she brought along Bonnie and Elena, as her best friends and no matter the pleading and pulling after one shot of tequila a 14 year old Caroline Forbes left officially tattooed.
·       The second tattoo came when she was 17 following a string of heart break. This time Caroline went to the tattoo parlour alone with an immensely better fake ID in hand and no friends trailing behind her begging her to reconsider. Unlike the spontaneous choice of her star the blonde lingered for a bit taking into consideration her different options before deciding on a small swallow taking flight on her wrist. It drew her in and as the plastic was wrapped around the freshly done ink set for her to leave Care couldn’t help but feel like that blank space of skin on her had been sitting there waiting for the bird to settle down. It belonged on her. Her Mother did in fact figure out her tattoos and it led to yet another horrible fight.
·       Caroline has several nervous ticks, she tends to bite her lip, she glowers, brushes a thumb gently over her swallow tattoo or, most infamously she cleaned everything around her to an inch of its life.
·       Caroline is one of those people who carries her purse strap on her inner arm. This has a lot to do with southern societal living and creating a more glamorous effect around herself. Purses are also one of the things she’ll splurge on. Specifically purses, moisturizer, perfumes and shoes. She also believes it’s important to own at least a few tubes of high quality lipstick, one for each colour pallet.
·      Marilyn Monroe’s favourite lipstick was Guerlain’s ‘Diabolique’ the colour is now discontinued but they then released ‘Red Insolence’ a near identical shade which Caroline of course owns. It smells like vanilla and berries and while she may model her life after Scarlett O’Hara there will always be a bit of Marilyn in her. Besides, everyone needs to own a timeless red.
·       Caroline is well aware that she was a shallow bitch in high school, she’d had a whole break down about it once to prove it and at times she still felt that lingering push in her gut that she was just as shallow as before but that wasn’t the point. She’d been a supremely shitty teenager even going so far as to on occasion snub one of her closest friends Stiles, all because he wasn’t what anyone would really be calling cool back then. His social status did eventually change and Care is ashamed to admit now that she’d started being seen more in public with him around that time. There were times even when she was publically ignoring him that she would step in if someone appeared to be being too mean to him. The fact that he seems to be pulling away from her now feels like karma. If she’d always been the sort of friend he deserved every time maybe he wouldn’t be ignoring her now.
·       Less serious one but listen Caroline was 100% pissed to find out everything horrible that goes bump in the night is real but unicorns aren’t. It’s something she will be bringing up at some point.
·       Caroline doesn’t just love bubble gum pop music, she loves classic rock anthems. I’m taking this headcanon based off of her karaoke preferences. Her reasoning is that classic rock ballads from the 80s are some of the most powerful and romantic things you can find. It’s not something she advertises and you might not notice it unless you’ve heard her do karaoke or watch her get ready in the morning.
·       Caroline as student body president, valedictorian and head of too many committees to name applied to a vast variety of colleges and was accepted to many including Ivy’s. However, she wasn’t brave enough to leave, she didn’t believe in herself so she decided to play it safe and go to Constance with Elena instead. She doesn’t regret her decision even with the way her friend has been pulling away but a secret deep part of her does wish that she’d at least gone out the visit those colleges she got into. It’ll stick in her mind as a what if especially as she continues to be frustrated by the isolation and exclusion she’s going through.
·       Caroline’s underwear always matches, it’s just a little tic of hers and helps her feel more put together every morning. There’s nothing like concurring the world knowing you’re put together from literal top to bottom. She’ll shamelessly walk by having just purchased three new lingerie sets, there’s nothing to be embarrassed of after all, she has cute taste and if anything she’s setting an example of what everyone should be doing.
·       There is a handheld vacuum in her possession specifically for cleaning up post party confetti and glitter, because that’s the sort of thing that will never come out of a vacuum and she’s not about to infect her other. It’s clearly labeled so as to make sure no one mixes up, not that she’s about to let anyone clear for her.
Para Sample:
Sitting in front of her vanity Caroline gently ran her curling iron one last time through the heaviest lock she’d have on show. The face that stared back at her was perfect, brows arched correctly, lashes thick but not clumpy. Leaning forward, she ran a finger carefully around the corner of her lip gloss, making sure it remained within the lines. But it was only for show really, to draw the eyes of the other girls around her, because every piece of her look was utterly flawless. A green dress was hung up beside her vanity, perfectly ironed and steamed as she’d done so herself. Somewhere out there in town her Mom was doing police things, her cousin was god knows where not that she particularly cared. As a flash of pain snapped through her system the blonde firmly shoved it down once again reenforcing that she truly didn’t. Her Dad though, she’d half expected him to show up. After all he was always the one who supported her in these things. The one who took her shopping before every school year, who helped drill her for gymnastics, and then for cheer. The parent who paid her the most attention and made sure that she was able to get the vast amount of attention that she so required, picking up the slack for her Mother who’d become so sucked into her work.
At the sound of a laugh her eyes drifted away from her own reflection instead landing on the back of her best friend and her aunt. How was it that Elena had most of her family die and still managed to have someone with her for the pageant? She shouldn’t be the one alone. As soon as the vicious thought slipped through her head she felt horrible, but it was true. She had the perfect boyfriend downstairs waiting for her, while Caroline had to dance with some substitute. All because her boyfriend, who she was still half sure was still half in love with her friend, was working. Caroline had almost been pathetic enough to ask Jake to escort her but not only would it royally piss of Matt, but her ego couldn’t take that kind of hit especially since her ex had recently been galavanting around with Faye Chamberline of all people. Her eyes remained locked on the happy little mixed up family unit as they at the same time unfocused.
She could see it in her mind’s eye now, standing next to her, probably holding hands with a death grip waiting for the news. Because Elena was her best friend and of course she’d want to stand beside her, because she loved her and she couldn’t imagine anyone else there next to her. So she would be standing there holding onto her, hearing Elena win and pasting a smile onto her features. Elena would get to feel a bit closer to her Mom a previous Miss Chance Falls and Caroline would get to feel her heart throb in pain at the loss of something she wanted so badly, and also feel like a horrible friend for hating her just a bit in that moment.
A hand softly reached up to brush against the heart-shaped necklace Elena had given her, just because she cared. Because that was the kind of person Elena was and it was, of course, the perfect piece of jewellery. Caroline did everything right, volunteering for everything within her reach, writing a killer essay, keeping a perfect smile with perfect posture before the judges. Answering every question with grace during the closed interview, she’d even googled how the royal family sat so as to make sure she was just that little bit more than everyone else. More what she did not know, but just more.
Her eyes dropped from looking at the reflection of her friend down to the vanity table. Elena would get the pity vote, because not only was she effortlessly beautiful and kind she had the perfect tragedy, and with her Aunt watching happily, and her perfect boyfriend standing beside the stage the committee would announce her name. Caroline would hug her and then she’d change out of her dress and walk herself home, leave a message for Matt and complain about her escort who would likely forget one or two of the steps she’d ruthlessly drilled into him. Her Mom would come home and if she remembered to ask Caroline would tell her about the pageant as well, or bring it up in a petty moment of anger during their next fight if she didn’t. Later she’d send a text to Tristan or Stiles, and the former might at the very least read the message and the later might commiserate with her over it being bullshit because even if she was on occasion a terrible friend/sudo-sibling he always seemed to come through. Bonnie she’d leave alone to celebrate with Elena, because Elena deserved to have a best friend who was for real happy for her in those moments.
Steeling herself Caroline sat up a bit straighter inspecting herself from her best angle and even her less flattering one, only slightly less of course. She’d meant it when she’d talked to Bonnie, when she’d softly tried to gather up her hope and confidence for this thing that she wanted so badly. She deserved this, she’d worked and earned this. So no matter what happened like Scarlett O’Hara she would preserve. She’d be so stunning that the town would gossip for weeks about how cheated she was out of the crown. Taking a small breath in and then out she smiled at her reflecting plastering her papier-mâché confidence back on before standing up and grabbing her dress bag. Caroline Forbes had a pageant to dominate.
Anything Else?:  A future plot point for Caroline I’d really like to explore would be her becoming a Vampire as I think she’s meant to be. It’s not something I’m looking to rush however, I like drawing things out and reestablishing some relationships, just layering up a multitude of things so that when it happens the pile can topple over and we’re left with a lot of angst and conflicting emotions. I think it’d be especially interesting considering Tristan having killed the person he’s been intending to marry. So it’s really important to me to have a Tristan rper and their relationship rather strong before that happens.

WELCOME, Ness !! You’ve been accepted for the role of Faye Chamberlain. We’re so excited to have you join the ante mortem family. Please look over the checklist and make sure to send in your account within 48 hours. We look forward to seeing you on our dash.
OUT OF CHARACTER
Name / Alias: Ness.
Age: twenty.
Pronouns: she/her.
Timezone: GMT.
Anything Else?: just that I want to worship the ground you walk on for making this roleplay.
IN CHARACTER
Desired Character: Faye Chamberlain.
Why?:  I’m gonna preface this by saying the second I stumbled this roleplay I screeched. I love every single show incorporated in the plot and I’m in awe at how you’ve managed to merge all the shows and the characters so seamlessly. I actually don’t even know where to begin expressing my love for Faye. Honestly I hadn’t heard of TSC until about 2 years after it aired. My main reason for watching it was because I had a character with a Phoebe FC at the time and I kept stumbling upon gifs from the show. I remember watching the very first episode and I’m not gonna lie at first I hated Faye with a passion. But as the season progressed, my adoration for her blossomed. With her mischievous nature and offhanded one-liners, she easily became one of my favorite characters. Faye is such an intriguing character in the sense that there’s so much more to her beneath the steely glareand sharp tongue—she’s not the one-dimensional bitch character we’ve seen portrayed so many times. There are so many layers and complexities to her with so much potential for development to the point where I simply couldn’t dream of applying for anyone else. It would be an honour to undertake Faye’s role and bring her character back to life.
Character Pronouns: she/her.
Sexuality & Ships: Bisexual. I’d be absolutely honored to plot with anyone in regards to ships whether it be as a friendship, a romantic setting, pure unadulterated hatred or anything else in-between. I’m a huge advocate for ships based on chemistry. I never want to rule out any ships because from my experience it’s always the ships I don’t expect that I have the fondest memories of.
Occupation: After dropping out of college, Faye is focusing on herself and trying to get back into a positive headspace before even thinking about enrolling again. Although her mother supports her financially, Faye works as a nanny a few days a week. She has a soft spot for kids and she’s a child at heart so I can easily see her keeping the kids entertained with her exuberant nature.
Headcanons:
Faye has always been someone who fails to be described in few words. She is the definition of a free spirit—she’s super adventurous and audacious but also soooo reckless to the point where you’d think she constantly has a death wish. She has a mindset of ‘what’s the worst that could happen?’. This is the main excuse for her reckless behavior because the repercussions of her actions never cross her mind. She’s one of those people who would do literally anything for someone she cares about and wouldn’t give it a second thought. Even if it meant running into a burning building with a survival rate of 0%, she would do it.  And when everyone is saying ‘Faye no’, her brain would be screaming ‘FAYE YES’.
What most people fail to notice is that Faye has a softness within her, a brokenness that does not prevail outwardly—one she deals with alone. Consequently, she is possibly one of the most guarded people you could find on the planet. There is a void in her heart, one filled with pain, grief, and trauma. It is a void so profound it that remains with her every single day of her life, no matter how much she would prefer to disregard it. She views emotions as a form of weakness and has developed an ability to mask her feelings so nobody can look past the facade and see how truly broken she is. She’s a walking contradiction: a girl who feels everything so intensely so she pretends not to have any feelings at all. It’s her defence mechanism. Peel back those layers, however, and you’ll find a scared, insecure little girl who wants nothing but to feel loved. Not that she would ever admit it, though.
Faye and her grandfather shared a bond like no other. Both a father figure and best friend rolled into one, he played a vital role in his granddaughter’s life and Faye loved him dearly. Some of her fondest childhood memories were spent at her grandfather’s lake house. But Pine Lake was also the setting of two traumatic events Faye can only dream of permanently eradicating from the crevices of her mind. The first being her near drowning incident. And the second was gazing into the darkened eyes of her grandfather in that very same spot. She often finds herself awakening in the middle of the night, screaming, reliving the memories in her subconscious. To the extent where it’s a rare occurrence for her not wake up to nightmares stricken by these memories.
Powerlessness is one of her greatest fears. When the circle was bound, Faye was left to her own devices which landed her in multiple life-threatening situations where she was left defenceless. So, she decided to take matters into her own hands by learning how to protect herself. She enrolled in martial arts and self-defence classes so she’d be able to hold her own in a fight without her magic.
Although she isn’t psychic per say, I see Faye having some kind of precognitive ability. On more than one occasion, she has made jokes or assumptions that have turned out to be true. For instance when she had her suspicions about Jake when he returned to Chance Falls and that Eva was lying about Lee skipping town. She also guessed that John Blackwell was really evil, and that the curse on the Conant and Blake families wasn’t real. Long before Faye discovered her magic, I can imagine her blurting out random things and making predictions which ended up really freaking people out, including herself. But at the time, she blamed it on intuition or a simple coincidence.
‘Damaged people are dangerous. They know they can survive’ sums Faye up. All of the events throughout her life; all of the trauma and heartache, has hardened her and made her resilient. She has learned the true value of independence and how the only person she can truly rely on in any situation is herself. Pair that with her determination and her magical abilities. She’s a force to be reckoned with and is one of the last people you’d want as an enemy.
Para Sample:
The last few days had been torturous for Faye. Nothing could have prepared her for her grandfather’s passing. It was a concept she couldn’t seem to comprehend—her grandfather was dead. Just like that. The person she had known since she was born was gone and she would never see him again. There were so many things she didn’t have the chance to tell him—things she will never be able to tell him. She would give anything to see him again, even for a fleeting moment. Just so she could say goodbye.
Sleep had become a foreign notion. The vivid memory of seeing her grandfather’s body still remained deeply ingrained in Faye’s subconscious thoughts. No matter how hard she tried, the girl just couldn’t seem to forget. Images of that night never faltered to flash in her mind, over and over again, on a seemingly never-ending loop. She would awaken in the middle of the night so many times—to the point where she could no longer she remember what it felt like to have a full night’s sleep. Sometimes she would even reach a point where she could no longer distinguish her dreams from reality. She felt broken—beyond broken. All Faye could feel was the numbness swarming around her heart and the unbearable guilt whenever she remembered she lost the chance to tell her grandfather just how much she loved him before his death. The smile on her face had long since faded and she just wanted to forget. Forget about being a witch. Forget about all of the drama in Chance Falls. Forget everything. She didn’t just want to—she had to. It hurt too much. But, much to her dismay, it was easier said than done.
Now even the image of her grandfather’s face was slowly erasing itself from her mind, as if he was gradually becoming nothing but a distant memory. Sunken eyes and a tear-stained face had seemed to become permanent features of Faye Chamberlain. Everything was taking its toll on her and it was becoming increasingly difficult to keep herself together. She had grown weary of all the apologetic glances and supposed words of ‘comfort’. With each passing day, more and more texts and phone calls from her friends and family went unanswered. For a girl who spent a fair chunk of her life glued to her phone, it was completely out of character. But she didn’t even have the energy to care anymore. She had shut herself off entirely from the world, even from her own mother. Probably one of the most baffling things was that Faye never saw her mother grieve. It was as if she was entirely devoid of emotion. As if she didn’t even care about Faye’s grandfather at all. All she could feel was this overwhelming sensation of rage towards her mother that only seemed to heighten as the days went by. She was the reason her grandfather rarely ventured away from his home to Chance Falls. The reason Faye and her grandfather’s relationship suffered throughout her teenage years. And Faye would never forgive her mother for that.
Her fingertips drummed on the porcelain of the bathtub to the beat of the music that was playing faintly in the background. Though she wasn’t really listening, certainly not amidst the seemingly never-ending array of thoughts that were circulating around her mind. She descended into the water, feeling the warm liquid cling to every inch of her skin. Faye’s throat felt dry and chest felt heavy, as if boulders had been squeezed through the small little bronchial tubes and straight into her lungs. A shiver travelled down her spine and she felt her breath catching in the back of her throat. Breathe, she told herself. But it was easier said than done. It was something so simple yet so difficult—but it felt as if she couldn’t quite remember how. Faye finally emitted a tremulous breath as she diverted her gaze to the ceiling. All she could feel was the dull, nauseating ache resonating in her chest and the quickened thrum of her throat. So, she screwed her eyes shut.
Then the memories came flooding back.
A bolt of lightning crackled across the blackened sky and the sound thunder boomed through the air. Sky-fallen trickles were plummeting downward relentlessly and the wind battered through the late autumn air. The brunette’s entire frame was drenched, the coldness seeping through her clothes onto her skin. But Faye hardly took any notice. The weather was the last thing on her mind.
Panic ripped through her as she scrambled towards Cassie. Her chest had tightened until it felt as if she wasn’t even breathing—which she was, rather laboriously, in fact. Her feet skidded to a halt as she reached the edge of the wooden dock. And that’s when she saw him. Her grandpa. At that very moment, Faye could have sworn she felt her heart disintegrating into tiny fragments. She remained entirely motionless as her mind attempted to process the sight that beheld her.  
“That’s my grandpa,” she rasped out, the words not quite registering in her mind. She felt her legs collapsing beneath her body and instantly clung onto Cassie in an attempt to stabilise herself. “No” was the only word she could muster the inner strength to say. “No, no, no—” she repeated as her normally pleasant demeanor gradually altered and her face crumbled, consuming nothing else but heartbreak. Faye could hear her own voice crack as every wall of composure collapsed and tears began cascading down her cheeks. Her breath hitched and her entire body convulsed as a sequence of sobs wracked through her frame. She inhaled deeply, attempting to regain her composure to some extent, but only seemed to fail. She screwed her eyes shut as she remained enveloped in Cassie’s embrace.
Faye’s eyes snapped open, her vision blurred by the fogginess of the water surrounding her. She shot upwards almost instantly,  gasping for air, as her hands clutched the edges of the bathtub. Her forehead crinkled in desperation and she strained her eyes, frantically analysing her surroundings. A breathy exhale fell from her lips just then. Her hazel orbs lifted upward for a few moments and she pursed her lips into a line, as the liquid clinging to her eyelashes began to glide along her skin. “I love you, grandpa,” she muttered in a barely audible tone. Those few words brought her an instant sense of relief, knowing that in a world that can be so bleak and cruel, she could find solace in speaking to her grandfather. But that still didn’t change the harsh reality that he was gone and was never coming back.
Now all Faye had left was an unbearable ache in her chest, tearing her to shreds every single time her thoughts lingered on her grandfather. She would have to learn how to live in a world without him by her side—a world without him there to hold her afloat.
Anything Else?: I threw together a pinterest board HERE and I have an old account HERE I’ve repurposed over the years for an original character who is very reminiscent of Faye personality-wise.

WELCOME, Tyler !! You’ve been accepted for the role of Scott McCall. We’re so excited to have you join the ante mortem family. Please look over the checklist and make sure to send in your account within 48 hours. We look forward to seeing you on our dash.
OUT OF CHARACTER
Name / Alias: Tyler, Ty, TT, Butthead.
Age: 26
Pronouns: Male pronouns, but it really doesn’t matter.
Timezone: Eastern
Anything Else?: Nope.
IN CHARACTER
Desired Character: Scott McCall
Why?: Scott was the first character I ever roleplayed. At the sweet age of eighteen, I was looking to play Derek Hale but instead was picked to play Scott. Ever since than he has been my go to character when it comes to TW groups, and I’ve sort of bonded with the muse. We’ve both been through things that would turn a good man bad and come out even better than before. I hope you got that music quote there.
Character Pronouns: Male.
Sexuality & Ships: Pansexual. I ship chemistry.
Occupation: Student at Constance College as well as Vet Assistant.
Headcanons: While sports were at first at the forefront of his mind starting high school, Scott has shifted his interest to academics after his transformation. It isn’t just because of the career he wants but also out of fear of accidentally hurting someone.
While he has never given much though to his own sexuality, Scott views himself as pansexual. Believing that at anytime you can find the love of your life and it shouldn’t matter what their gender is.
There’s a fear he’s never shared with anyone, not even Stiles. Scott is afraid of becoming a father. Seeing as he didn’t have a good example of one and the curse that runs through his blood, he deeply fears becoming a parent and has considered getting surgery to make sure that never happens.
Para Sample: There was never a dull moment in Chance Falls. Something was always stirring, whether it be in view or under the surface of the gleam of street lights. So when Scott found himself comfortable at home he was almost afraid of what was going to happen next. Would Klaus and Isaac barge through his front door? Fangs ready to turn him into a whole new monster? Any moment now, he thought. Eyes keeping the front door just at the corner of his view. Paranoia ran deep. Ding.
The doorbell rang out and he was on his feet. Fists balled as he slowly approached to look through the window only to see.. the pizza he had order fifteen minutes ago. It had completely slipped his mind. A laugh danced between his pink lips as he retrieved his order. He needed to relax before someone got hurt. Yet how could he relax with everything he knew now? Nothing could ever be the same. There was no going back to the boy wandering the woods looking for a body with his best friend. Better me than Stiles, he thought. Better me than anyone else.
Anything Else?: Nope.

WELCOME, T !! You’ve been accepted for the role of Allison Argent. We’re so excited to have you join the ante mortem family. Please look over the checklist and make sure to send in your account within 48 hours. We look forward to seeing you on our dash.
OUT OF CHARACTER
Name / Alias: T
Age: 27
Pronouns: she/her
Timezone: pst
Anything Else?: this is a chance to let the main know anything you want in reference to you as a player.
IN CHARACTER
Desired Character: allison argent
Why?:
she is the girl that ceases life with her bare hands, but there is something about her that remains a mystery. allison argent is not a simple character. allison argent is not just the pretty girl with a warrior heart & undeniable youth ( surely she is too young to be this dynamic – too young to carry the weight of the world on her shoulders ). there is something standoffish about her – something so eccentric and strange and unreachable that makes her absolutely human.
& she is just that  –  HUMAN.
she loves with her whole heart & hate with same intensity. she is a walking contradiction  – she just doesn’t know it. she does what she wants without a second thought, but grows frustrated  ( mainly at herself  )  when the outcome ends up bad. she is reckless by nature, but lectures others when their reckless nature brings harm to those she cares about. she is a strong WARRIOR, but she is always second guessing herself. because, in her mind, she is not strong or good  –  she stands by a code, but remains unsure on how to keep that code. deep down, she knows she is not reliable. but she is growing up. she is coming to terms with a lot of things.
& she does want to run.             but she refuses to let anyone fall..
Character Pronouns: she/her
Sexuality & Ships: i am a huge chemistry shipper so my first ship for allison would be allison/chemistry. i do want to explore scott/allison  (  who didn’t love them ?  )  and i want to explore lydia/allison in terms of friendship. her sexuality is fluid  —  she loves for personality and is open to anything really.
Occupation: she is currently a student constance college  &  is an undecided major. she is also currently working part time at the sheriff’s station as a clerk.
Headcanons:
[ one ] paranoia makes habits  –  monsters lurk in the shadows. every night before allison goes to sleep, she has this habit of ALWAYS checking her room to make sure everything is in place and that no one is hiding in her closet, bathroom, or underneath her bed. only after her room is checked ( on the bad nights, she checks twice  )  can she be able to get into bed and sleep.
[ two ] she looks like she has everything under control, but she is lost, lost, lost  –  before the death of her aunt, she does not know what she wants for her future. live is always &constantly on the move, she has always been more focused on the present. after the death of her aunt, allison still does not know what she wants for her future. she keeps up her grade and social life, but as third year comes, she is still indecisive about what to do after. perhaps it is a good thing that she has a whole bunch of distractions.
[ three ] allison has a fascination for the color red. her fingernails are nearly always painted red, and she found that she likes the way it looks when pressed against her beloved bow. it makes her feel powerful  &  unstoppable – almost like a heroine in a movie.
[ four ] allison’s whole life is impacted by her friends and family. since little, she has not stayed in a place long enough to make sincere friends ( sometimes, it was easier not too ). being friends with lydia, scott, and stiles changed her life  –  they brought companionship to a lonely girl  &  she cannot be more thankful. their opinions matter more to her than anything else  &  she is willing to do what it takes to make sure that they are safe.
Para Sample:
can you picture this : the glow of round moon painted the forest silver. the blanket of shadows nestled underneath branches. the sleeping sun tucked away behind the elusive moon; silver light, silver light, silver light all around the dense forest. daring souls had long surrendered to slumber — wrapped tightly in warm blankets and dreaming of hopeful dreams. little human beings tossing and turning in the comfort of stone walls, blinding security, and familial warmth. no one heard. no one heard.
no one heard : the howls made from breaking bones and tearing fleshes. the way the skeletons snapped like broken branches. the bellowing of a boy — the snarls of a beast. the mischievous snickering of a boy about to betray his friend. a snide remark made; a snort sounded. then silence. then growls. then screams. horrified screams! the kind of scream that would dip a body with fear.
the beginning of a nightmare that only happens when the moon is hung high and dreams ran vividly.
the kind of nightmare little warrior has to relive over and over again ( all for the blackened loyalty that flowed through her bloodstreams ). tired eyes flickered between the blanket of blackness in front of her to the bright screen of her cell phone before ivory hand pocket the small device.
her last message engraved in her head ( but ignored nevertheless ) :
[ sms; father ] come home now.
she looked up…
& far beyond her reach lies the promise land of her sweet empathy — where starving compassion hid underneath withering willow tree. shaken by unexpected breeze, the leaves fall slowly ; an intake of breath, and the crusty leaves turned into thorns to penetrate the surrounding dirt. leniency shattered & vanished — the blissful mirage evaporated ( ah, but it was pretty to look at ), giving way to the settling reality. now a pinch of fear had taken over. uncertainty crept between the cracks of her bones. perturbation lingered in her bloodstreams. her mind is unstable — racing so fast, so fast in this stressful encounter. not stopping or resting as she calculated the percentage of danger. not resting for the wicked plays when the moon is bright.
black veil fell — he glistened underneath the pale light. reflections caught on the silvery wisps ( a shade just a hue or two lighter than her own dark hair ), illuminating with each sway of long locks. so captivating was his gliding movements — like a slow ripple in still water. angular features protruding underneath a layer of pallid pigmentation. the devil’s child wrapped in faux elegance — how wrongful it was for monsters to look so bewitching when they stink of ichor & death !
thus, she stood there like artemis — all tall & cautious with her beloved bow raised. silver arrow ( a specialty produced by her own hands ) pointed directly at his heart. only to lower by a centimeter at the presence of his raised hands ( the supposed sign of defeat and peace ). steady gazes made to hide the rapid pound of her treacherous beating organ. warrior, warrior — courageous warrior; she stood her ground to find her remedy, for the lick of tension tingled her alabaster skin. “ don’t come any closer. i will not hesitate to shoot. ”
a warning made with steady voice ( golden lioness is not afraid. not afraid. not afraid. ), and slender fingers twitched along the smooth wooden surface of her bow.
her arrow ready – aimed to harm.
“ i mean it. ” inwardly, she cursed the way her voice wavered. weak, weak little girl  –  she was terrified of the outcome.
a girl of twenty fighting a war made for thirty.
but she was stubborn & youthful & does not know when to quit. so spine straightened and eyes narrowed  –  she is an argent; she is a survivor.
& she shot her beloved arrow to erase all traces of cowardliness from her fragile bones.
no more fear allison.            no more fear.
Anything Else?:

WELCOME, Tyler !! You’ve been accepted for the role of Elijah Mikaelson. We’re so excited to have you join the ante mortem family. Please look over the checklist and make sure to send in your account within 48 hours. We look forward to seeing you on our dash.
OUT OF CHARACTER
Name / Alias: Ty, Tyler, TT.
Age: 26
Pronouns: He and him or whatever really.
Timezone: Eastern
Anything Else?: Nothing!
IN CHARACTER
Desired Character: Elijah Mikaelson
Why?: I tend to always go for the heartbroken hero types who put other’s before themselves. Initially I was going to apply for Scott McCall, as I have played him for over what four or five years? But I decided to break the mold and try my hand at the sophisticated original who has spent all his life as his brother’s keeper.
Character Pronouns: Male
Sexuality & Ships: Heterosexual. I ship chemistry. It doesn’t matter what show the character belongs to. As long as there is chemistry I am about it.
Occupation: Professor at Constance College. Presumably Ancient history.
Headcanons: Elijah is quite the virtuoso. He plays the piano, violin, and the cello. He tends to keep this private, however, never playing for his company. In a way it’s one of his only human attachments.
Elijah is an atheist. He has no belief in God, though if he were to ever have such a faith it would come in the form of the Old Gods where he would happily worship Freya and Tyr.
Elijah keeps his romantic endeavors secret from his family. Seeing how every time he is romantic with someone his family ends up killing them, he finds it best to simply keep things under wraps or as casual as possible for the safety of his partner.
Para Sample: When word had spread of Elena, Elijah was quick to depart. Taking time away from his current affairs, a part of him hoped that this would be merely hearsay. It wouldn’t be the first time something like this happened, and for the safety of the rest of the world he hoped once again it would be a misidentification. However, upon his arrival to Chance Falls his hopes were quickly squashed by the sight of her.
It was like stepping back in time. He could smell the fires burning in stone pits, hear the tranquil sound of chirping birds and somewhere off in the distance a drum began it’s steady beat, but that was no drum. It was the tender melody of her heart. Tatia. A tear threatened the corner of his eye, forcing him to close his view, and when his sight returned he saw the world as it was. She was not Tatia, and she was not Katherine. She was a girl of the same face, but not the same scent. His fears arose for her. Knowing what his brother would do if he was to find her. All of his own feelings and concerns he pushed behind his red door to lock away for what he needed to do in order to protect the girl from his family. Specially Niklaus.
Anything Else?: Nope. If you’d like something, however, I’d happily oblige.
