Pretty Maids, All in a Row {{Victorian Era Jack the Ripper RP -- Only One Spot Left!}}

http://i824.photobucket.com/albums/z...Untitled-3.png

Hello, darlings, and welcome to The Painted Lady. I am the Madame of this lovely brothel. The year is 1888, and we are in Whitechapel, London. Recently, there has been a rash of killings in this area; because times is 'ard, I want to protect my girls, y'see. I think it's right understandable, don't you? Anyway, we're hiring, again--some girl got 'erself pregnant and run off with one of the local constables! Imagine!

So, 'ere's wot y'do. Fill out this spot of paperwork for me, dearies, and we'll get straight to work. I trust ya all know what to do? 'Course ya do! Else, you wouldn't be here, would ya?

We'll be needin' seven girls, an' one dashing gentleman (yer actual gender doesn't matter a bit, dearie) to play the part of our villain.

Give me:

Yer name: {{Come up with somethin' fittin' for a lady of our profession, would ya, dearie?}}
Yer age: Not that I'm discriminatin', but let's keep it somewhere between 17 and 24--the menfolks like a young, pretty face, now, don't they?
A picture of you, if ya wouldn't mind--solely for advertisin' purposes, mind you:
A brief biography

For the gentleman, I'll need
Yer name:
Yer age:
Any background on you

You can post a picture if you like, but it's not necessary--after all, you'll be wantin' to hide yer pretty face a bit, see? After all, what's life without a little conflict? If ya pick this role, your main goal is goin' ta be pickin' off my girls one by one by one.

And girls--do be careful, yeah? Lord knows how I hate hirin' new ones.

Once you've finished fillin' all that out, send it to me in a private message--best to be discreet about this sort of thing.

O2. Stay in character at all times. If you must go OOC, put the OOC bits in {} these.

O3. You can use either first or third person, as long as you're consistent. Once you've picked one, stick to it! It makes life easier for everyone involved. <3

O4. Adhere to the TOS. Though this is a brothel, keep it PG-13. Violence, gore, and swearing IS allowed, given the nature of the RP.

O5. Don't post until I've received your bio and you have been accepted and added to the next post.

A brief biography: Rosaleen grew up on the streets on London as a pick pocket, but as she grew older she realised that men seemed to take a fancy to her. So she decided to take a job in a brothel where the men could take all the fancies of her they wanted and she could get paid for it.

A brief biography:Annabell lives in london right near the painted lady and has always wanted to work there. Her mother is very over protective and doesn't let her do much of anything. She didn't go to school her mother was her teacher and tended to teach more cooking and sewing then spelling and reading. After learning the basics Annabell learned the rest on her own. Although she isn't the best educated she is very kind and willing to do just about anything you ask her.

A brief biography:
Gwen was raised to be a proper young lady. She was raised by her mother who then taught her to be just like her. Cooking, sewing and charming men were just a few of her talents. Gwen's mother actually got pregnant from too much charming. Working in a place similar to The Painted Lady. Gwen has been living on her own, working at the Painted lady for some time. Though she is very picky in her men. Never allowing just anyone to touch her.

A brief biography: Lily is an intelligent, strong yet mysterious young woman who loves adventure, but can be prim and proper when she needs to be. Her mother died after she gave birth to her, leaving her father to raise her. All she has left of her mother is a beautiful locket that has a picture of her in it. She wanted to try something new, and thought the Painted Lady was a good place to start.

A brief biography: Born and raised in the countryside, Roxanne always wanted to see the city, so, when she reached the age of 16 she ran away from home with her boyfriend. After a month of city-living she became broke and her boyfriend left her, saying that life in the country was better then life in the city. Roxanne was never a quitter so she began looking for jobs. Finding none, she became homeless and starving. On her 17th birthday she decided that working in a brothel would be better than starving on the streets, so she began looking for any brothel that would hire her.

A brief biography: Before working at the brothel, Blossom was notorious for 'picking up' richer men, with her way of speech and pretty face they figured she was one of them. She would wring every halfpence out of them before divorcing them and moving on, which is why she has such expensive looking clothes. In the end, she had to give up this way of making money, for she was now notoriously known in the upper circles as 'Lady Dragon' and no rich man would dare come near her lest they wish to become beggars. She has eventually lost her 'Posh' accent and began speaking like a cockney, as she was originally born in the poorest part of Whitechapel.

Annabell smiled as she stepped out of the house to walk down her street. She ignored her mother's angery calls coming from within the house and walked down the streed smiling. She giggled slightly and walked to the Painted lady. She wasn't sure if she should go in or knock on the door. 'What if no one's here?' she thought freaking out.

The Madame peeked through the tattered lace curtains of the brothel's front window and saw a young girl walking up the street toward the Painted Lady. Too young to be an angry wife, she thought. Hopefully, she's not one of those religious zealots what come around here lookin' for trouble.

Annabell took a deep breath before deciding to knock on the door. She was standing up tall now smiling sweetly ready for whatever or whoever answered the door.

Madame swung open the door and peered down her nose at the rather nervous-looking girl in front of her. "Can I 'elp you, dearie?"

"Yes miss. I was looking for a job, here." Annabell said rather shakily. Nervously she tucked her hair behind her ears and fixed her dress so it layed flat.

"Ah, don't be nervous. C'mon in. I trust you know what to do already?" The Madame took the girl by the arm and led her inside to a rather shabby-looking front parlor and pushed her gently into an armchair.

"Yes miss. I do." Anna said sitting back in the armchair smiling slightly. She looked around and noticed it wasn't as nice as she had expected.

She frowned and looked at the girl, taking a seat across from her on a worn sofa. "What, not what you expected? So, girl, why'd you wanna come here lookin' for work, anyway?"

Annabell shrugged "I don't like living home. My mom doesnt let me do anything and I've seen this place from my window, Young men, older men are always here...I've never spoken to a man before so I decided to come here." She tried to explain.

The Madame's eyes widened when she heard the girl say she'd never spoken to a man before. "That...might be a problem. Erm, you do know what kind of business this is, don't you?"

"Yes Miss I do. My father had been here before. He told me about this place." She said remembering the nights he'd come home in such a great mood and tell her all of his stories, untill her mother kicked him out.

"Well, that's...unusual." She wondered why the hell any father would tell his daughter about his visits to a whorehouse, but decided not to question it. "All right, you'll do. Go on upstairs and get yourself settled in, I suppose. I'll call for you when we get a customer."

"Thank you." Annabell said smiling. She went upstairs and was suprised again. There didn't seem to be anyone else here. Her father had said it was filled with beautiful young ladies but this point she was the only one.

{{We reaaaaaaaally need someone who's willing to be the Ripper...^^; I'd do it, but my life's so crazy with school and everything right now that I wouldn't be able to do it justice. I'm updating the title of this thread. It's still open, so feel free to RP, but the plot can't really go anywhere until we have someone for that role.}}

{Ok...I'll wait...I'll just keep it on my subscribed threads.}

((Normally I would say I could do it, But I just don't have the time as it is to do it very well.. I'm sorry. >.<

Maybe we could get this thread moved to the main page? Horror forum moves very slow usually))

((Kk, sorry I havn't posted so we just waiting for a ripper? Hey broadway? Why don't we ask fish?))

{He's a guy we both role play with.}
