Pʀᴇᴛᴛʏ Oᴅᴅ

Things have changed for me, and that’s okay.
I feel the same, I’m on my way, and I say.
Things have changed for me, and that’s okay.
I want to go where everyone goes,
I want to know what everyone knows,
I want to go where everyone feels the same.
I never said I’d leave the city,
I never said I’d leave this town.
A falling out we won’t tiptoe about.
Everybody gets there and everybody gets their, and everybody gets their way.
I never said I missed her when everybody kissed her,
Now I’m the only one to blame.

♤ ♧ ♡ ♢
Ever thought that you never belong?
Did you ever fit in?
Were you different?

These are the questions we all have asked, some with answers and other not even the foggiest.
Have you ever wanted to get away from it all?
The stares. The dirty looks. The muttered words. The snickers and giggles that were left at your wake.
Well my dear, all you have to do is run.
♤ ♧ ♡ ♢

( This is a remake of an old RP I had )

Song (c) Panic! at the Disco - The Green Gentlemen

Plot;; You were different. And no, not the 'I am my own self. An individual,' different. No, I mean really different. Different as in you can read people's minds and futures or lift a 2 ton elephant with your bare hands. Yes, that different. You never really belonged in the world you were born in. You knew that, and somehow everyone else did too. It wasn't your looks or the way you talked. It was the way you lived. Yes, I understand that came out a bit weird. Maybe even creepy, but how do I say this... You're a freak. Harsh? Yes. Horrible? No.

But being different is kind of...well..hard. So why not run away with the circus? You know you want to.

So you did.

The Circus;; This is placed in the 1800s, so huge outdoor tents that reach the heavens and attractions that are weirder than you uncle Stu. You happened to run away to the 'Rue Brother's Wonderland', Aurthur Rue and Alfred Rue. This set of twins are quite a wonder on their own but don't be fooled. They are just as different as their crew. The circus travels at night and set up before sunrise. It's mysterious of how and when the circus comes in town, but the people love it anyways. It were everyone can be themselves and have fun. Looking at the wonders of the world up close and personal. Now, the attractions are never locked up behind bars or in cages, they each have their own tent or booth. Some even wander around the grounds giving a show whenever. The Rue Brother do know how to create a memorable circus. A wonderland on its own.

Circus Rules;;
♤ No theft of visitors or of the crew
♧ No romantic relationships within the crew
♡ Tents and booths must all be set up and finished before sunrise
♢ Lights out at 12:00 pm
♤ Do not leave the circus grounds
♧ No running away from the circus

But rules were always made to be broken.

Characters;;

The Rue Brothers
The leading men of the circus, the Rue Brothers are the ones who started it all. Aurthur is the oldest but not the wisest, he is a little immature and bubbly. He keeps the fun going while his brother keeps the circus going. Alfred is the youngest and holds it all together. He is very formal and gentlemen like. He takes care of all of the business and order.
(I will play these character (unless some one else would like to) since they will be in the RP very little except for when traveling to new places and when talking to others about important matters.)
Aurthur Rue
Alfred Rue


The Mermaid
The mermaid is one of the popular attractions of the circus. She is quite beauty in peoples eyes. She can walk on land like a human, legs and all. But as soon as she touches salt water, her her legs are traded in for a shimmering tail. She sings like a bird and often teams up with the musician. Unlike a siren, she doesn't 'hypnotize' people who listen to her songs and melodies.
Female ; Open

The Rag Doll
This lad is a bit creepy and morbid, well at least his skill...if you can call it that. He can pull apart his limbs and they can still be controlled by him as well. He's much like a male Sally from the 'The Nightmare before Christmas'. So look out for random hands or legs wandering the fair grounds.
Shaun Smith ; Male ; Profile ; DerpyPanda

The Magician
Here's the star of the big top, he always has a trick or too up his sleeve and a rabbit in his hat. But not all of his tricks are gags, he can actually perform magic. He can make anyone disappear and really slice a girl in half, no string attached.
Alphonse Timme ; Male ; Profile ; fictional

The Psychic
The name says it all. The Psychic can read peoples mind and tell their futures as well. She loves to work with crystal balls and tarot cards. It one of her specialties. She sometimes get visions of what might be happening to other or in the future.
Iris A. Ukali ; Female ; Profile ; ~WolfCharm~

The Artist
He's the dreamer of the bunch. Anything he dreams of visually, he can perfectly paint it on the canvas. Even from the descriptions of visitors, he can paint it perfectly. But the catch is, he's blind. Weird, I know, but somehow he knows what colour in in which jar and knows where to place it. He truly has a talent and is one of the most paid for attractions. He's always selling paintings left and right.
Leo M. Blaire ; Male ; Profile ; pity party;

The Musician
The musician is the song bird of the group. She can play any song on any instrument known to man. From the piano to the oboe, she can play beautifully at any rate. She normally walks around the grounds playing a tune or two. She will even enter various tents and play for the acts, but she mostly plays with the Mermaid. Along with her friends singing and her music, they are quite the duo.
Margo Deloom ; Female ; Profile ; fictional

The Beast
Much like the character from 'Beauty and the Beast', he can turn into any animal of his choosing. But he can only shift for an hour at most, after he has to take a little break from his ability. He has a bit of a temper and often runs to the nearest woods or forest to take a little breather.
Dean B. Hale ; Male ; Profile ; DerpyPanda

The Flame
Ever heard of the 'Human Torch'? Well, he is much like him. He can manipulate fire to its will. Creating it in the palms of his hands. He has a rather large temper and is easily angered. He tries to control it but it all just ends up in flames. No pun intended.
Adrian ; Male ; Profile ; Misconceptions

The Angel
She didn't fall from heaven but she does have the wings to act like it. She is the darling of the crew and has perfect white wings that sprout from her back. She has the ability to fly and heal minor injuries such as cuts and scrapes. She is well loved by everyone and is the peace keeper. She tries to help to separate people who fight and argue a lot. Sometime people would visit her in her booth and pray, as though she is a worker for God. But sadly...she isn't.
Female ; Open

The Doe
This little lamb can talk and socialize with animals. She often befriends them and tend to keep them as well. Even though she isn't allowed to have more than a couple pets, she tend to hide them under beds and in closets. She just can't leave them in the wild to fend for themselves now can she? They're just too cute!
Avalon ; Female ; Profile; Misconceptions

The Clown
The Clown can make anyone laugh. And I mean anyone. He/She can make the day of the grumpiest old mans and saddest children. All he/she needs to do is tell a joke or perform a trick and everyone is smiling and laughing. He/She can be immature sometimes and doesn't know when to be serious, but he/she is the master prankster. So watch out or whoopee cushions or fake poo.
Male or Female ; Open

The Stage Hand
This person is a regular human and mostly helps set up tents and booths with the other. They not have much of a talent but they love being apart of the circus. Even if they hide behind the curtain.
Male or Female ; Open

What would you guys think if I add an acrobat? Someone who can do flips and such? And also a male who can bend any metal and break mountains? Like super strength?

Please PM reservations
