Young Writers Society

Plot: Each and everyone of you are orphans. Whether your parents died or abandoned you, somehow you ended up at The Orphanage. Kids ranging from newborn to eighteen all live with you. Since everyone wants to adopt babies, the remaining kids and teens are rounded up once a year onto the Orphan Train. For many, this is the worse week of their life. The train drops the children off in various cities where anyone could take them for any reason. Lucky kids are taken in by loving families but the majority are not. The wardens in charge of the bidding show no mercy. Siblings rarely stay together. Will you find a family along the Orphan Train, or will you escape before the train even arrives? These are the untold stories of the orphans.

Rules: You may have up to three characters as long as they're related in someway. Relationships are allowed but remember when it comes to the orphan auctions, you may get separated. Cursing and fights between characters are permitted. No God-modding.

Name: Lynnox Mastin

Nickname:

Age: 16

Appearance: Lynnox is moderately tall with medium length dark brown hair, and blue-ish gray-ish eyes. She keeps her hair down so it's easier to hide her face.

History: Lynnox and her little brother were shipped off to the Orphanage when they were twelve and eight. Their father was killed in a car crash, leaving them to their heroin addicted mother. Lynnox was forced to grow up in order to take her mother's place and protect her brother. Shortly after, her mother died of an overdose. Together, her and her brother survived two Orphan Trains. On the third one her brother was sold to someone in Boston.

Brief Personality: Lynnox is quick to shut people out of her life, afraid of getting hurt. No one besides her brother has ever actually cared about her. Once her shell is cracked, she is a sweet heart.

Strengths: Lynnox is very sneaky and can usually get away with almost anything.

Weaknesses: Whenever anyone mentions Boston she tenses up and becomes very angry at everything and everyone.

Other: If you can break through to her, she's up for love

May I reserve the last spot? Pretty please?

Name: Theodore Lucas Allbright
Nickname: Theo, Teddy
Age: 15
Appearance: Messy brown hair and beautiful blue eyes. Had a small acne problem when he was younger and still has a few scars speckling his face, but still manages to be very handsome. He's very tall and lithe, but doesn't have muscles.
History: Although he has been in the orphanage since an early age, his fear of people made him hide every time an adoptive family came by. He was never adopted because of this. His parents only left him at the orphanage because they didn't have enough money to care for him, and they felt really bad about it. Not knowing this, though, it gave Teddy a slight feeling of abandonment.
Brief Personality: Very, very, very shy. Teddy often hides in his hoodie when he's around people. He's been alone for most of his life and doesn't really know how to interact with people, even if he would like to. However, he can be sarcastic sometimes.
Strengths: Very loyal, and when people break through to him he can be quite sweet. He's also brave when it comes to protecting people he cares about.
Weaknesses: A small fear of people and very self-conscious.
Other: Teddy isn't sure what he wants from life; he just knows that' he's scared of anything that involves other people. He hopes to hide from the orphan train and make it to eighteen without being adopted or taken at all.

First Character:

Name: London Monroe

Nickname: None

Age: 16

Appearance:

History: London lived with her brother Greyson on the streets for as long as she can remember until they found the orphanage. She doesn't remember their parents, and Greyson refuses to talk about them. They have managed to stick together for now, but London doesn't know how much longer that will last.

Brief Personality: London is out there and friendly. She likes making new friends and meeting new people though her brother tells her to keep her mouth shut. She isn't quick to trust, and she's a compulsive liar, but she passes even the silliest lie off as the truth. She's smart mouth and quick to retort but it's all in good nature.

Strengths: London is a quick thinker and light on her feet. She can't fight, but she can run. She's great at pick-pocketing, and it isn't abnormal for things to go missing with her in the room.

Weaknesses: She isn't a skilled fighter, her mouth gets her in trouble on occasion, but nothing she can't handle.

Other: London never keeps the things she steals from people unless its cash. She'll trade it off or sell it.

Second Character:

Name: Greyson Monroe

Nickname: Grey

Age: 17

Appearance:

History: Greyson has been keeping his sister safe from the minute their mom passed away. He doesn't remember much, but he dreams of his mother on occasion. Grey likes to keep the past a secret, for fear that London might pursue the only parent still living, their dad. Grey brought London to the Orphanage as a last chance survival option to keep her safe.

Brief Personality: He's normally quiet, but he's a very smart guy. When he does talk, people often stop to listen. He's thoughtful and he can come up with a plan in a split second. He cares for others more than himself, but it's normally just his sister that he worries about.

Strengths: Grey can think of a plan in seconds, which normally keeps his sister out of trouble. He's a great fighter, and a quick runner. He's a smooth talker, and although he isn't quite as good as his sister, he can normally get them out of trouble with his charm.

Weaknesses: He is always thinking of his sister first instead of himself. Grey could care less what happens to him as long as London is fine.

Other: Greyson knows where his father is, but refuses to share that information with anyone, including London.
