Masquerade Brothers

Dear Reader of this Message,

I would like to invite you to a masquerade ball my brothers and I are hosting.
As our father has recently passed away and we have been left with his wealth and glorious mansion. As a result of this my brothes and I would feel so selfish if we didn't place it to good use.

As our goodbye to our father, we would like to host a ball in his honour. Where all the people of Tisdale shall be invited to come and join us on this wonderful day for merriment at Masquerade Manor.

As all Masquearade balls follow, it would be very nice if you all placed on your best frocks and masks and left your identities behind you for the evening.


Yours Sincerely,

The Masquerade Brothers.

Rules

1. Swearing isn't permitted. Though, I believe I'll rephrase that. Swearing is permitted though on a minor scale.
2. Romance is allowed, though, It cannot be vivid. Also very very VIVID fighting scenes. Who doesn't like a good fight.
3.Girl to boy ratio must be even. Not seven girls and the one guy.
4.God-modding isn't allowed. Your characters can't be to perfect, but in saything they can't be boring either.

Plot:
From far and wide citizens of Tisdale have received a letter inviting them to the Masquerade Manor to dine with the brothers in their mournful loss. Though what the guests do not know is that the Masquerade Brothers do not want merriment for others, they want it for themselves.

All guests are hurtled into a race for their lives as one by one the Masquerade brothers hunt down their guests and slaughter them. Every minute a guest dies leaving only group people to find.

You are one of the group people to have survived the Brothers game so far. Time is ticking and you have to find an exit before you are slaughtered in the brothers hold.

Though what you don't know it is the brothers who are doing the killing. As everyone hides their faces behind masks the brothes also do. The death crows, as they call their masks are the last thing you see till you are entering the here after.

There is only one escape but only the brothers know where that is but to find a brother is to find your own death...

Setting:

Masquerade Manor


Masquerade Manor origniated in the 1800's, where a rich man bought the house from a blind woman who couldn't see the value of her house her father left for her. Most people believed, the current owners cheated the house of the poor women.

Though the brothers think differently, this is definietly the case. It is the most beautiful house in Tisdale, and is often the barter of conversations.

Tisdale:


Tisdale is place where most people believe to be the most beautiful sights in England. It is rather small yet quaint and people like to come here on holidays. With a long rive breaking the town into two. A small boat company lends it boats and drivers out for the passing.

Name: Henrietta Talbert
Age: 17
Gender: Female
Personality: Henrietta talks constantly, which bothers most people because her deep accent is coupled with a nasally, high pitch. She can be found gossiping, but is unconditionally kind to the person she is gossiping with. She hides her judgements well, so it's difficult to tell if she is actually fond of someone or just puts on a show in order to complain about someone else. Her tendency to throw herself at any man leads her into a lot of "heartbreaks" But any negativity from a woman appears to roll right off her back.
Appearance: (Anime Picture ^^ Considering everyone is saying 'NO ANIME' I've decided to do the opposite)

Mask and clothing: The gown in the picture and
Hates: Men who don't recognize her advances, healthy food, animals
Likes: Gossip, flirtatious men, quiet women, sweets, luxury

Up for love: Sure

I'm going to be gone for the weekend but I'll post a profile when I get back.

Here's my profile:

Name: Jeanna Delarose (Gee-Anna)

Age: 19

Gender: Girl

Personality: Is usually very quiet. Will mostly keep her thoughts to herself, but likes having one or two friends she can talk to about anything. She's timid, and will always fall back into the group in some sort of group project. Isn't a leader, and willingly follows anything she agrees with, and if she doesn't agree with it, then she might go along with it, depending on how strong her feelings are, or she'll just drift to another group, or just sort of drop out by not really participating.

Appearance: (Anime Picture ^^ Considering everyone is saying 'NO ANIME' I've decided to do the opposite)

Mask:

Clothing:

Hates: Being a leader, taking charge, being put on the spot, public speaking.

Likes: Following someone who she believes is right, word and number puzzles, reading mysteries.

Habits: She sort of goes along with everyone around her unless she feels strongly against it, in which case she will avoid conflict and simply fall back and fade into the background.

Strengths: Is good at puzzles of all kinds, thinking things through.

Up for love: Sure.

Other: She is pro at solving things like Sudokus and Riddles.

I'll do a guy, cos we need to even out the ratio here!! If you need one more girl though, let me know, I'm better at female characters!

Name: Sam Taylor
Age: 19

Gender: Male

Personality: Sam can be desscribed in only one way: spoiled. He knows he's gorgeous and that girls love to hang off him. He's smart as well, which doesn't help. Though Sam can be rude and arrogant most of the time, he does have a sensitive side - he's just not used to showing it.

Appearance:

Hates: Boring people, girls who chat back (this can be used as an advantage in the SB!), peas, sitting still, gushing people.

Likes: Football, being rich, Jane Austen novels (but shhhh! don't tell any one!!)

Habits: Bites his nails. Tends to butt in a lot. Is very self concious, and likes to point out the fact that he is (or at least thinks that he is) hot.

Up for love: Definitely! Especially surprise love...

Name:Matthew "Matt" Wilston
