Important Info Before We Begin
  • This is set in the 1920s or at least a fantasy version of the 1920s!
  • Sexual Scenes may occur but they will not be described. It will be implied or fade-to-black at most, it's likely they won't occur but just in case!
  • Violence will occur and it may be intensely described, if this makes you uncomfortable please tell me and I can keep any violence brief.
  • Alcohol and drugs will be heavily mentioned and my character drinks.

Lillian owns and runs a speakeasy. Her husband had opened it a year before he died, she took over since then. She wants to take revenge on the people who took her husband from her and is willing to do anything to get it. She keeps the speakeasy open to keep revenue coming, and she enjoys it. The regulars have become like family. She doesn't want to get them involved in her personal squabbles so she's looking for an outside partner in crime.

This partnership can develop into a friendship or even romance if the characters will it to be. Lillian is Bi with a heavy leaning towards feminine people (woman or man). She will be well known in back-alley circles as she's a popular figure with people of less law compliant natures.

There is magic, but no character can willfully wield it. They can have a weak-medium passive magic like Lillian but other than that PC's don't have magic!
Magic 30%
Some magic. Few can use it, but most of the players probably won't have it. Magical characters will likely believe that they are all alone.
Technology 50%
Modern
Combat 50%
Combat is expected as part of the storyline but it won't dominate the plot.

Details: Freeform, paragraphs required, long-term RP partner preferred.

Time-traveller here. Would love to do an rp set in the 1920s although I may need some help with the cultural integration. Isaiah has some experience in the underworld having engaged in drug trade and illicit arms dealing in his time. He has also spent over a 100 years as a businessman.

Aah he seems really interesting but I don’t think time travel exists in this world so perhaps he could be tweaked for this RP so he’s not a time traveler but just has an extended life span?
Hey! This storyline caught my eye, but I don't know which character to use. I could easily manipulate one of my characters to fit your story line if you'd like.

Ooh that could be fun! I mean, it would depend on if you’d like to try and make it romance than we could find one of your characters who are comparable with Lillian, if not you can just grab the one you feel like writing most lmao
What about Blair? She could be a gangster's daughter, or something of that sort. She's a frequent at the club with her father.

Ah I would but Lillian doesn’t want to get her regulars caught up in her squabbles. She sees them as family
Blair would probably try and help her anyways.

Sure, but Lillian wouldn’t stand for it. Some of the other regulars offered help as well but she refuses it all in any way shape or form?
Ok, she won't help, but she could still be a regular, right?

Well... He already has an extended lifespan since he can't age. But he's not just a time traveller. He can jump between dimensions so this would be an alternate universe to him.

Aah even so I feel like that's too magical for this universe? If that makes sense..

He won't shake things up too badly. Think of him as the Doctor if the Doctor bothered to blend in and hide his advanced technology.

Ah no like... that’s not what I’m worried about. It’s the fact that this universe doesn’t have stuff like that? Like it doesn’t exist at all here?
Is Blair ok, or?

Oops! Sorry thought I had replied!

Without her being able to help there wouldn’t be much of an RP unless we came up with a plot for it, which we can totally do! Just PM me since this is now gonna be plotting stuff

Is this still open? If it is, I'm certainly interested. :)

Yeah! I still need to find a player for my original plot (the one in the post) so, it's still open!
If there are slots still open, I’m interesting in playing.. It’s a nice setting, I love the early 20th century, and I have a character who is a WW1 veteran, I think he would fit in here.
