/me raises a hand from the dead

I... Will... Tryyyyyy

I am very sorry, but I will have to withdraw my offer to be in this RP. I don't think I'll quite be able to manage 6 RPs. I apologize for the inconvenience. I will be more careful before I say I'll do an RP.

Finally finished my SU. Pretty satisfied with the character, and I know I'll enjoy playing him

I wasn't expecting you to wait this long, but I won't question it so here's my long awaited SU. Definitely not my best work, but hopefully it's enough.

Okay guys here's the deal, I got sick again and had to vanish for a while. I'm just trying to catch up with my various sections and get back in the loop now but I haven't abandoned you. I'll have the IC up in the next few days and let everyone know they're in.

Name: Nicholas Rain
Age: 16
Gender: Male

Appearance: Nick is 5'6" tall and pudgy. He is Caucasian with pretty blue eyes, and dark brown hair that goes a little pass his neck, and covers into his eyes if he doesn't push it out the way. He wears black framed glasses with green arms. His facial hair hasn't begun to grow. He is sometimes mistaken as a butch woman from strangers because of his hair, and reasons unknown to him. One thing people always ask him is "why don't you have eye brows," and his response usually is "genetics" or "I lost them from a bad sun burn."

Nick's clothing options consist of white shirts, shirts with his artwork on them, three football jerseys, button downs, ups, and oxford shirts. Blue, Black, and Army Cameo Jeans. He also wore his fair share of black, and occasionally had his finger nails painted black, and sometimes wore a leather choker around his neck.

He has a pair of black Converse's, white Nike's, and black Adidas covered with blue paint.

Personality: He shows up to school late everyday, and rarely does school work. Instead he draws during school hours. He used to have really good grades until he stopped caring. He used to be an entertaining person who had a large group of friends until he failed his second year of school, and decided not to act the way he used to. In 9th grade he was known for singing, and perform stripe teases. He has low self esteem, and doesn't find himself handsome. He rejects any girl who asked him to be their boyfriend (either for being in a long distance relationship or plainly not liking the girl).

Sweet treats, barbecue, American and Spanish dishes are his favorite. He doesn't like to live in real life, and prefers to hangout online roleplay, playing pokemon, watching anime or collectible card games instead of hanging out with people, with the exception of the small circle of friends he hangs onto, and makes. Unknowingly he is the glue of his group of friends. He always see someone else as the leader of the group. If someone else is the leader he is certainly the glue of the group.

He doesn't care for sports but when he plays he does he doesn't slack. He isn't the star player, but comes in clutch. He is also uncomfortable with anyone seeing his body including physicians. At this point in Nick's life he is an atheist, deep rooted depression, contemplates suicide, watches porn for 2, 3 hours a night, and only sleeps for 4 hours at a time, Usually 2am to 6am, when he gets up, and lives the cycle again.

History: Born June 22nd. Cancer. At the age of 4 was Nick's first sexual experience. He felt forced into it by the girl next door, and had intimacy problems he could not resolve until he turned 18. His parents got him into gaming at a young age, and he got his first handheld on his 5th birthday. He lived inside of his gameboy color.

In elementary school he was a little different. He enjoyed playing on the schools apple computers, trading his school lunch for pokemon cards, a bit of a teachers pet, and bullied up. In middle school Nick made a lot of friends who enjoyed anime, and that taught him how to draw. He was still being bullied at this time, but fought with his bullies. In 8th grade he became friends with them after a fight, and was friends with the jocks, geeks, and wannabe thugs. He wouldn't call himself popular but famous would be the word. When he was 12 would be when he noticed his sexuality, and a liking to girls. In 8th grade one of his friends would bring his PSP to school, and he would look at the hentai he had on it.

At the age of 13 his father was jailed, and on Nick's 14th birthday his father found guilty and serving a 22 year sentence. Nick took losing his father hard, and not having any of his old friends hurt him as he was going into highschool. Finding new friends wasn't really on his agenda. He nly went to school because his mother made him. Soon as school was finished he high-tailed it home as fast as possible to continue his RP life.

During 9th grade two girls asked him out. He rejected them. This lead to a rumor that he was gay, and was bullied online for it (to be fair he was bi-curious at the time, and had a crush for the one friend he did have, and played Halo with). This lead to him cursing out one of the girls who was bullying him, and they became friends after that.

The only woman he made himself vulnerable to was when he was 16. She lived across the street from his mother's house. She was 10 years older than him, and worked at a nearby pharmacy. His mom and sister (He has a brother, and sister, but they are way older than him, and have families of their own) hated her. He would lie to his mom, about where he was going, and did his best to sneak around just to see her. Unfortunately she moved away that October to Georgia, and got involved into drugs which turned him off from her.

In school a select few call him Columbine. A few kids are scared of him, and antagonize him by asking "Please let me know when to stay home," insinuating he is going to shoot the school up. If they only knew the only one he wanted to kill was himself. He goes to school counselling once a week, and pretends to be okay, and often his artwork is the subject of discussion.

Alright that's one more WIP. If the two WIPs can get their stuff done by some time tomorrow I'll post up the IC then.

Hmmm...?
I'm not sure who you've accepted and who you havent, but there's 6 completed SUs with 2 work in progresses, so we could technically start now, right?
Not trying to rush you or anything, just pointing out in cased you missed any, since we can technically start with what we have(Again depending on who you've chosen to accept)

Wait shit, there's six completed SUs? I might have missed a few.... Alright I'll give the WIPs a chance to be done by tomorrow night and let you all know from there. The IC can then go up on Monday.

Notice me senpai. The SU is completed!

I'll have the accepted people listed tonight in a few hours.

So, I have been doing some thinking. Originally I was going to accept only six other SUs, but this isn't very fair because it would leave only one person missing out. So instead I'm going to accept everyone.

Sign-ups are now closed and the IC will be up either tonight or tomorrow.

The IC is up.

Since this is an M rated RP, what are your views on terms that could be considered offensive?
I really want to go for something pretty gritty(In terms of offensive language and subject matter), but I can begrudgingly tone it down if needs be.
To be specific I mean racial, homophobic, sexist language. I will do my best to handle it tastefully within the narrative, and characters that do it wont be glamorised and definitely wont be rewarded for that sort of behaviour, but in dialogue, it certainly wont be tasteful

Is the body switch "thingy" happens all across the school or only to the group?
Also, maybe we should make a Skype chat to talk about stuff like that there?

Sorry if it wasn't clear, just our characters are effected.

Guess GP RPs just drag out the inner back story developer in me...
Expect flashbacks. Lots of them.

I'm not sure what to expect. So we are forced to live at this school? ^^;
I wonder who my OC is going to dorm with.

..oh I need to fix my first post, and change how my character gets there. Obviously my character can't walk there.
