This wasn't a fantasy when I thought of it, except for the fact that my character gets sent back to Victorian times, but now eh... I don't care. The same rules as any other, except I don't care how many characters you have. Just play with it a bit.


Name: Elizabeth Morre
Age: 20
Hair color: blond
eye color: green
Literature: Jane Austen

The plot of this goes as such...

Elizabeth Morre lives a semi-average modern life, until she gets sucked back into Victorian times and falls in love with the guy Gregory Benette. When she goes back she calls herself Elizabeth Collins, picking a name from Jane Austen.

This sounds interesting. So I get to create a Victorian character? Okay...

Name= Isabelle Howden.
Age= 19
Hair= Long and dark brown. It is often worn in tight ringlets.
Eyes= Forget-me-not blue.
Personality= Isabelle is very demure and always polite, kind and propper. She speaks in an educated tone.
Other= Isabelle is currently engaged to a man by the name of Sir Thomas Dewar and resides with her sister Louisa.

I'll give this a try

Name= Laney Smith
Age= 18
Hair= medium length, light brown, natural highlights,
Eyes= Pircing green
Personality= SHe doesn't care much for the rules of the day but her parents are very important and rich people so she is forced to follow them.
Other= She wants to fall in love but hasn't found anyone she even likes at the moment.

Ok...I'll have to go google the victorian era...ooooh. There's some really interesting stuff on wikipedia. It says that women couldn't be charged for stealing if they were acting on their husbands' orders, as he was pretty much their "owner". Mind if I take this and run with it?

Name: Abigail Wilmot
Age:22
Hair : Red, always tied back, though she makes sure that her hair covers her ears.
Eyes:Dark brown. This looks quite striking with her hair colour.
Personality: Passive, up to a point. She is frustrated by her lack of power and often has to bite her tongue. She's intelligent, but usually tries to hide this as it would, she is sure, work to her detriment.
Other: Abigail recently married a man named Harold Wilmot. He is very upset by the fact that she hasn't yet had a child (for "child" read "son", a daughter would be unacceptable), and is determined that she be put to some use. Since he recently lost his job, something which he keeps very quite, he has been having her conduct little thefts to keep them well provided for, and allow them to keep up with their prestigious social circle. As she sees it, she has no other option than to obey, and he insists that he can't do it himself, as she will be able to talk her way out of it in a way which he cannot. She has not told anyone about this, and is continuing her charade as a distinguished member of society.

Ok, minor warning, my class is reading Pride and Prejudice, and anyone that is working period is looked down on. Just lettin ya know.

He he mabel I got the idea for this story after i read that book for the third time ^.^

I don't mind at all TN, in fact, feel free to choose his name. It should be an interesting piece of conflict. And pride and prejudice is an excellent novel.

I read it last year, I'm reading Sense and Sensability cause I have the same teacher so she gave me a different book. I'm not a big fan of them but I should know alot about it by now.

Well this sounds great! I love the Victorian Era! Pride and Prejudice is a brilliant novel... there's nothing I love more than Victorian novels (am reading North and South at the moment). Well I would say that naturally I'd opt to be kitty15's sister (as I am her sister lol)... but I notice there's a lack of men. Now we could just have a love story without them... but then again perhaps not!

Name: Gregory Benette
Age: 28
Hair: Dark and elluring
Eyes: Misty grey
Other: Gregory is not the richest of men, he is a master of a factory in the South of London. His men are currently on strike, this inconvenience is leaving him short of earnings. When challenged he has a great passionate temper. His stuborness and adament insistance that he knows what is best for people, leads him to not be such a popular man. Yet, he does have a certain charm that when partnered with his dashing good looks, makes him a very attractive object indeed. Overall, he is a very mysterious gentleman who many wrongly assume to be very rich in all ways.

I'll change my character (since her name is Ellizabeth-unless that was a typo) if you'd like

lol just ignore the "PS" bit I just realised what I said made no sense at all! No no your character is fine as Elizabeth... that was a typo... just ignore me it is early in the morning where I am lol.

oh wait! Edit: My character is Elizabeth Collins *nervous smile* um...I guess I should start then?

Go right ahead and set the scene... it's your story after all (-:

And then Claire and I shall jump in and take over. Lol. Only joking Alzz.

Elizabeth sat against her favorite reading tree with her favorite Jane Austen: Sense and Sensibility. The sky was growing dark and she was having trouble reading. But still, she didn't get up until after it had gotten dark.

She could tell she was being followed half way though town, she always had had a nack for such things. She picked up her pace. She decided to take a short cut through an alley way home. She turned inside and started sprinting to the other side.

Which was cut off. Crap. She was trapped. In a desperate attempt at freedom she started climbing the fire excape, but to no avail. She fell back down. She pulled herself as close to the wall as she could.

The two men closed in on her, not looking dangerous or scary, but concerned, she only heard, "are you alright ms.?" before she dissappeared.

(Alright whoever posts next can find her )
