Alice's profile:

Full Name: Alice Caroline Adams
Age: 18
Appearance: She possessed the same dark hair, pale skin, and wide blue eyes of her family, but when she went into modeling she cut it short because she felt it a better expression of her personality. She was tall and fit, and always seen as a very beautiful person.



Personality: Alice was a month from turning nineteen when she was murdered. Even though she grew up very rich, she was modest and people found it very hard to hate her. She could make her family feel at ease when times were hard. Even in the last year of her life when she became a model and singer and was starting to become known throughout Los Angeles, she never felt like she was different from anyone else.

Background: As a young girl and teenager Alice lived a very quiet life, going to school, helping take care of her younger sisters. From an early age she had a passion for singing and her friends knew her to be quite good. However, she never felt like pursuing it until she was discovered and asked to be a model. When her coworkers found out that she could sing, she started giving a few performances at concert halls. Everyone thought she was headed for a great career until her untimely death.

Other: She's dead. A good one was lost.

Hi.

Yo.

Hi everyone! Once Disk posts their profile, everyone's profiles will be up and we can start discussion of the storybook. At some point today you will receive a PM from me with your piece of what you know of Alice's murder. I'm aiming to start this on Friday. We're going to start three days after Alice's death. Everyone will write an intro post for their character and from there we'll get things moving. If anyone has any questions or ideas for character relationships, post them here so we can right into the action come Friday. I will also be writing a short bio for Alice and editing that into the main post of this thread, so keep an eye out for that.

Please be a committed and active participant in this storybook! If for any reason you're going to be gone or don't think you will be able to post, let me know.

Checking in!

Mission read and understood.

Love it - and eager to get this going.

On a side note, this music has been lovely to write to so I'm sharing it with all of you: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aHjpOzsQ9YI

Dubstep violin for the win, as it were.

So wait... according to the PM you sent me, it was the butler in the study with the candelabra?

I have a question. Is the murderer an NPC or one of us?

It's one of us. You know who you are though, but please don't discuss your piece of the puzzle I just sent you with anyone else, because that will take away from the mystery.

Hey, checking in!

Here.

Hi everyone! So, the first post in this storybook will go up on Friday. Here's a rough outline of how things will start out:

August 7th, 1934 - 3 days after Alice's murder

- Because JabberHut told me she's going to be out of town this weekend, just Loller65 will come over to the Adams' estate to ask Clara, Isabel and their parents questions about the lost member of their family and what they might know about the murder.

- After JabberHut returns, Loller65 will return to the police station and report what he's learned to Jabs (his superior).

- We'll see what's going on with the Mafia, and they will make contact with Mr. Adams.

That's pretty much all I have for right now; we'll see then where the plot and the characters take us.

Anyone have any other ideas? Now would be a great time to share them.
