I'm sorry I didn't get a post up yesterday as I planned to. Things unexpectedly became busy. I will assuredly post before Thursday.
 
Name: Alice Edmonds
Age: 16
Gender: Female
Hair Color: Black with a little bit of brown mixed in.
Eye Color: Brown
Skin Color:
Medium brown
Blood Type: A-
Appearance:
LAIMG_000031.jpg

Living Situation:
She lives in an extremely small house by herself (it's more of shed though, really) next to a larger house where her family lives. She used to live in the larger house with her family, but when her sister who had run off a long time ago, came back with three young kids, she moved to the shed because it was getting too crowded.
Personality: Alice is a tough girl who isn't afraid to get dirty; Years of rough housing with her brothers and sister prepared her for that. Although she stands her ground, she's not hard headed in fact she's pretty open minded and friendly.
History: The Edmonds family has always lived in Scottsbluff, the father, Jerry worked as a carpenter, doing various odd jobs such as putting up a fence or mending the wall of a barn. And the mother, Louise worked as a hairdresser when she wasn't busy. At first Alice didn't have a job, and she was free to do as she pleased in the little town, but when her sister Josephine ran away with her sweetheart and then returned two years later with three kids, Alice was forced to get a job as a waitress at a small diner. And on top of that, Alice was forced to move out of her own home and into the shed next to it because the children were unruly, loud and destructive. Naturally, this caused a riff between Alice and her sister, as Alice hated her job and living alone, but she couldn't say anything because her parents were counting on her.

Okay I know this is a historical roleplay but using the N-word just isn't okay. It's rude and you could have just blanked it out.
 
I think we should allow someone outside the restaurant to post next.
 
Are there only four of us now?
I'll get another post up if you like. I thought to give others some time to catch up, but they seem MIA.
 
It would seem that way. Might wanna send them a poke, though, too.
 
I'll join if need be~
I love historical role plays.
 
Wonderful. We've become a bit short. Clockworker and tatergolem have dropped out and bellasage hasn't posted.

Go ahead and post your character sheet, Yuuka.

Name: Attila Hajos
Age: 50 (Looks 24)

Living Situation: Town, and he lives with his Hungarian friends in a tenament who have connections with organized crime.

Personality: Attila is cold, calculating... Many say he is heartless, though if one were to see him in any normal situation they would see the exact opposite. Despite his cool demeanor he has anxiety, as well as a fear of pigs or pork due to childhood events. He is also a bit schizophrenic and mentally wracked with pain due to the many times he has seen death over the course of his life, and what he has had to do to survive.

History: Attila was initially contacted by the Hungarian Socialist Party- underground after the Monarchy was restored, to transport weapons the Socialists had stored across the border by train- the weapons in question were not physical so much as in powdered form. The Socialists had been experimenting with human augmentation in relation to chemicals, and Attila happened to Patient Zero.

The effects of these "Chemicals" are profound- Attila has, in many senses of the word, eternal youth and eternal life. He also seems to be able to conjure small flames in his hands, though if held for too long the flames will give him third-degree burns. The price to pay for his eternal life and youth is with sacrifice. In order to live for 200 years, Attila sacrificed the four colleagues- those who he had prior to the slaying hated. The only true way for Attila to die is if someone were to burn his body alive, or if he were to be pierced through the heart, yet he is unaffected by "mortal illnesses" and non-fatal afflictions.

Attila, in the year 1928 was called to the Socialist Party Headquarters in Szeged and told that he would be transferred, along with four others, to the American heartland. Their explanation: "Expanding Operation Sand Storm". What Operation Sandstorm was, as Attila would soon find out- would be the covert experimentation with manmade chemicals on agriculture, and humans. Attila did not, and never would, take part in these experiments. His job? Find work in the Factory and then try to find a way to blow it up. This task has to date not been completed- yet he was able to get a good, stable job, and fine four more "accomplices.
 
Thank you for submitting a character, MrBriWolf, but the powers are meant to be randomized. Did you read the first post?
