I like the idea of a smaller town. I was under the impression that he was still a senior in high school, at least at the beginning of this (idk how long the timeline will wind up running), which leads me to another question: what does George want to do after high school? Is this something that could be different for each personality?

He is in his Senior year of High school (grade 12)... There will thus be a lot of pressure on him academically, in sport, and in the orchestra...


Also:

FCBT

Should George have a girlfriend/ girl he has a crush on, etc. If so, then what is each personality's stance towards her?

* *

Also, I really like the idea that each personality has a different idea of what future they want for George... I can add that to the character profiles, actually, so it will be there for easy access.

Hi everyone! I realize that all the parts originally available for this SB has already been taken. That makes me sad, because this is one of the coolest SB ideas I've seen in a while.

However, I have requested to join.

Why? Because I feel like this story needs at least one character from the outside who interacts with George (other than the family psychiatrist).

Whether this be a girlfriend (or just a friend who's a girl who is a potential love interest) or his Parents (preferably the mom), or a teacher, or one of his siblings...

I'd really like to play an extra character. : )

What do you guys think?
I believe in that, which is not seen.

I don't mind if you join. ^^ I like the idea of having a different character (rather than his personalities). It could possibly round out his character for the better or something.

@Skydreamer, I think that is exactly what we need to kick start this SB. You can be a friend (girlfriend or just best friend, your choice) Here is the template for your profile -

Code: Select all
[b][u]Name:[/u][/b]
[b][u]Age:[/u][/b]
[b][u]Relation to George:[/u][/b]

[b][u]Appearance:[/b][/u]
[b][u]Personality:[/u][/b]
[b][u]Short Backstory:[/u][/b]


Can the rest of the team also please submit their persona profiles. Thanks guys! (I'll create an SB challenge soon... Also, I'd like to start this next weekend or the weekend after that)

Great, thanks! Creating her now. I'm going with best friend so there is more history, and potential change in the relationship (whether drawing apart or closer, with no break-up drama)

(Also since the best friend is female there could be a crush option for one of the personas!)

That sounds great yes! I don't know if you saw the tags we use to say we're discussing plotpoints, but here they are anyway (in case you haven't :P )

FAM- Anything family-related (as soon as all the CPs are up we can discuss his family in detail)

FCTB- This stands for Friends Company Band and Team. Anything related to these topic should have this tag.

SCH- All school related ideas get this tag.

TIME- anything surrounding the season, place time of day, weather, etc gets this tag (thus all miscellaneous ideas that regard everything non human related)

I'll have to finish an SB post this week, then catch up with the discussions and THEN post the character template... Gosh I'm so late.

Ok I personally love the idea of an outsider! I'm like super behind in school work (missed a week due to bronchitis) but I can post mine in either tomorrow or the next day!

FCTB
I know we can't iron out everything without the other characters, but what do you guys think about the characterization of some of the other characters in George's life?

Like what kind of director does George have? Is he(she) more steady or immature? More of a goal-oriented perfectionist, or does he do the job for the sake of teaching students music? (in real-life, my director is like an anal-retentive, irritable, 3-year-old. The music has to be flawless, and if we have an off day, he he might thow a temper tantrum... throwing chairs... slamming doors.)
And what about the coach? Is he more of the in-your-face type, or does he tend to take a more quiet approach?
