Somewhere over the rainbow, down the rabbit hole, at the barricade, and in your wildest dreams... West of the state capital, and just off of 71, lies the sleepy small town of Pageson. With a population of 234, there are no secrets in this close-knit community... Except for one.

Suppose you lived in a town where your life was constantly on the line. Where animals are found with their hearts ripped from their chests, and graves are found dug up and robbed.
Suppose you lived in a town where people went missing, and then were found dead in the forest.
Where whispers of animals and creatures roam freely, but have never been found?
Suppose you lived in a town where secrets are everywhere, and things are never what they seemed.
Suppose you lived in a town where strange occurrences were more often then normal ones.
Suppose you lived in a town where you were constantly being watched, and you didn't even know it.
Suppose you lived in a town where escape was impossible, and if you tried to leave, you'd end up dead or worse.
Suppose you lived in a town where no one is who they say they are… not even you.

Pageson is more than just a town. It's a nightmare. It's the story people would pass around at campfires. It's the thing kids feared more than the monster underneath their bed. It's the reason so many children stayed awake at night. Because what's more scary then knowing about a ghost town? Living in one.
Of course, as the children grew older they became less and less afraid of the so-called place they once thought was scary. They realized that it was something that their siblings would tell them, so they would stop annoying them. It was something bullies used to frighten others. It was the thing that eventually, everyone stopped becoming afraid of. It's the thing that nobody but the new generations feared. The story passed on through every generation like a wild fire. And soon enough, they found out they weren't scared of it anymore.
But will that fear come back after a string of murders turn into something more?

.:General personality:.
Robin hasn't always been one of the good children. The ones that do their parent's bidding and get good grades in school. She's not exactly the one to be level-headed and calm.
She has always been one of the ones to look like they're good. She keeps up appearances and pretends to be the proper girl in her family's midst.
But if one looks past her facade, they might find that she's not exactly what she looks like.
She gravitates towards danger. She's a bit of an adrenaline junkie and she loves the thrill of fear. She's the type to walk across a highway, just to see if she can.
She has two voices in her head. Her 'Intelligent voice,' And her, 'Let's-jump-off-the-roof-because-why-the-hell-not?' Voice.
She's a bit of a firecracker, and when angered can be extremely volatile. Otherwise, she's a sweetheart and usually the one to crack a bad joke.
She's had quite a bad time with breakups, one always ending rockier than the last. She's had trouble controlling her feelings, and when she gets angry she has a hard time holding things in. If she does say something rude or hurtful, she'll immediately feel sorry, but sometimes her pride gets in the way of her apologizing.
She's extremely stubborn. So if she believes she's right, the worst thing to do would be say she isn't.
.:General History:.
Her parents never gave her much attention except when it was time for those oh-so dreaded family reunions, giving her free roam to do whatever she wanted. Which is probably the reason for her eventually turning to dangerous scenarios to feel emotions. To feel anything.
