				<br><div class="floatright">(http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_mafk1we5ee1rgo82uo4_500.jpg)</div><strong>Name:</strong> "Andi" Elle<br><strong>Age:</strong> 19<br><strong>Gender:</strong> Male, but he's never openly stated it<br><strong>Occupation:</strong> Unknown to the other housemates, but he leaves late and doesn't usually get back til at least 2 or 3 in the morning<br><strong>Sexual Orientation:</strong> Bisexual, with a preference for girls<br><br><br><strong>Personality:</strong> Andi is a rather mysterious character in the house, who doesn't speak much to the other housemates. He seems to be quite shy, and while the housemates know his name, he has likely never told him his major, his job, or even whether or not he's a boy or girl. He isn't rude or unpleasant, but rarely makes eye contact. His shy, sweet voice is rarely heard, but when he does speak, it's likely often to offer to help (clean, cook/get food), which is generally followed by him performing the task quickly and silently, and then disappearing into his room.<br><br><strong>Hobbies:</strong> Andi, again, is rather mysterious, but he seems to enjoy music and most of the housemates would likely assume he watches TV or plays video games pretty often based on the sounds that come out of his room.<br><br><strong>History:</strong> Born and raised in Los Angeles, Andi's life has been relatively uneventful. The most notable event in his life is being homeschooled after incessant teasing by students in Middle School. His mother, living on child support and alimony, took good care of him. Andi earned a scholarship through various academic and artistic achievements, a point of which some of his housemates may be aware.<br><br><strong>Character Likes and Dislikes:</strong> Andi seems to avoid the more boisterous and gruff members of the house/campus, and is more polite to people who are polite to him and don't probe him much. Andi likes music of all kinds, and is a reasonable cook, and he does seem inclined to talk more to the girls than boys.<br><br><strong>Player's O/O's:</strong> O/O Thread (http://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=39228.0) - In this case, Group scenes (particularly MFF) are a big plus.<br><strong>Any other notes:</strong> I'd rather Andi remain secretive until the housemates seek out those secrets (I like to explore my character through plot anyway).

Derek is also very fond of glasses although he doesn't seem to suffer any vision loss. Just a personal aesthetic preference.<br><br><strong>Personality:</strong> For the most part Derek is a cool cucumber. Soft spoken with a deep voice, though clear headed, he had a tendency to think things through and formulate plans before taking any sort of action. He's more than comfortable in leadership roles though he likes to govern with a&nbsp; democratic approach, weighing whatever options presented to him. He often acts as the voice of reason in the house. On the flipside, he may come across to others as unfeeling, detached and emotionally distant. For as long as he can remember Derek has wanted to build something great, something the world will forever remember even after he's gone , being the son of engineers may have something to do with this. He idolized men like Pierre L'Enfant, Paul Williams and Raffaello&nbsp; and aspired to their level of greatness. Derek does not fear many things , though not being able to live up to his dreams would probably be one. Another is marriage, he absolutely fears it. <br><br><br><strong>Hobbies:</strong> Engineering, design, exercise,&nbsp; architecture(obviously), jogging, cricket, basketball.<br><br><strong>History:</strong>The son of British Jamaican immigrants, Derek lived in the East London borough Bexley for most of his young adult life. While in high school he was involved in track &amp; field, establishing a personal best record in the 100m and 5.5 meters in the poll vaulting trials. <br>He came to the U.S. on a scholarship after high school to pursue his interest in urban planning &amp; architecture. He settled in the Los Angeles suburb after receiving acceptance into UCLA's architecture program. <br><br>Sometime during his sophomore year at UCLA Derek began to run low on funds, to support himself he began to star in a series of amateur adult films under the pseudonym " Jack London&nbsp; ". Though it's unlikely that he harbors any serious intentions in going professional , he has received&nbsp; little attention thus far. He has not yet shared this personal bit of information with the rest of his roommates. <br>&nbsp;<br><br><br><strong>Character Likes:</strong> Structure/Order, Athletic women, Banging bodies, Maturity, Independence, Lounges, Luxury Cars,&nbsp; Reggae, urban settings.<br><strong>Character Dislikes:</strong> Disorder, Weakwilled people, Needy people, Loud noisy things, Nightclubs, rural areas. <br><strong>Player's O/O's:</strong> O.O's (http://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=148526.msg6730932#msg6730932)<br><strong>Any other notes:</strong>&nbsp; There's probably something I'm missing...

				I've been doing some thinking and this roleplay is definitely&nbsp; missing something in terms of character and I believe it's an antagonist.<br><br>&nbsp;I wouldn't mind a more seasoned antagonistic type of character to balance things out. The problem I see going in is that people get along too well or not at all with this roleplay, we need a polarizing figure to unite or divide the house. Someone who can get the other roommates worked up. Someone who may be opportunistic, deceitful,&nbsp; self-centered, and not afraid to make enemies in the house would be awesome. Basically we need a bitch. Let's face it, a bitch can bring out the drama. Drama is what makes things interesting. I wouldn't mind a character who's playing the house against itself for her personal amusement, maybe she has dirt on everyone, starting rumors, etc so much can be done with this type&nbsp; of character . We need a mean girl. That's just my $.02. <br>

				"Well, Andi, like many of my characters, has smatterings of my personality. He doesn't... actually, I won't mention that, seems more like a thing that would be more interesting to learn in play. Anyway, maybe it'd be a good idea to reiterate the point is that all these people do 'know' each other, presumably. They all live in the same house. I assume Aribeth's question has more to do with who knows who better than the rest of the housemates."<br><br><br>"Anyway, based on the bios here, Andi would probably be friendliest with Mikaela, honestly more than likely because she has a punk/goth/outcast/whatever style. Andi finds it's easier to interact with people like that. He'd otherwise be friendly and polite, but standoffish with the other members of the house (except possibly Muse's character, whom I haven't yet fully read as his bio wasn't done yet when I last checked). If anyone thinks they'd approach Andi, let me know. I'll let you know what his reaction might be."

				I thought she inherited money when her parents died... and like Ryuka said, everyone should be living at the Mansion.&nbsp; <br><br>The question about the dorms is that she's 18, presumably a Freshman, and most colleges/universities require Freshmen to live on campus during their first year unless they have residency in that state.&nbsp; Mikaela loosing her parents at the age of 17 would've likely made the state step in, unless another relative was available, which would cause a whole lot of legal issues.&nbsp; She could've, of course, turned 18 shortly after her parents death making her a legal adult and that would bypass all the other stuff.<br><br>Still the question begs to be asked, why is she living in this mansion instead of the one her parents left her?&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; <br><br>There are probably questions I should've asked prior to now.

				Okay.&nbsp; Mansion may not be the most accurate word.&nbsp; &nbsp;The house I'm thinking has at least 8 separate bedrooms, one for each character.&nbsp; 4 bathrooms, a mix between half bathrooms (shower, toilet, sink) and full bathrooms (tub/shower, toilet, sink).&nbsp; Add in your various linen closets and that would comprise the top floor.&nbsp; Main floor would be your large living/TV room, kitchen, dinning room, den, and a game room with pool/billiards, dartboard, and possibly some other games.&nbsp; Hot tub/jacuzzi and swimming pool would be located in the back yard.<br><br>Going with a unisex, off campus, student housing "House" works for me.&nbsp; Can even call it a Frat/Sorority without the whole Greek nonsense.&nbsp; :P<br><br>I originally required people to be school aged but not necessarily enrolled in school.&nbsp; If we made it school housing, obviously everyone would be required to be enrolled in school.&nbsp; If it's just a house that rents out rooms then there would be a wider variety of characters, at least in my opinion. <br><br>Looking over the current characters the only character who may not be enrolled in college may be Andi (Ryuka's&nbsp; character).<br><br>What I mean by "off-campus" is that it's located on the outskirts of campus.&nbsp; Close enough ride a bike to classes but not technically on campus.&nbsp; Possibly even a little too far to walk, unless someone wanted to leave 15-20 minutes before class started.&nbsp; <br><br>Characters should at least be familiar with each other.&nbsp; That doesn't mean they're all the best of friends, but when the game opens they've all lived together for approximately a month.&nbsp; Hopefully gone out and partied together.&nbsp; It'd be nice if there was tension, sexual or otherwise, between different characters.&nbsp; I'd personally like them all to get along, or at least tolerate each other.&nbsp; Again, that could be limited to when they're drinking or the 5 minutes per day they see each other.&nbsp; <br><br>That's what I'd like people to discuss here in the OOC.&nbsp; If you plan on playing a character who isn't very outgoing and is a bit introverted, then give us some things we can work on.&nbsp; Such as Ryuka's character potentially connecting with Acid Lip's character and being friendly and making breakfast for people (I forget if this was actually stated or I'm recalling things incorrectly).<br><br>Not sure if I'm actually clarifying anything or if I'm just confusing people more.&nbsp; Let me know.

				that works for me, regarding the whole scholarship idea, it doesn't have to be a place specifically for rich students or scholarship students, if its a student house it could just be that there are enough rooms that the rent is low enough for students who are not that well off to live, having all the characters as rich on on scholarship is kind of making it harder for everyone to be unique&nbsp;

				I don't know that we need to get too worried about individual financial situations.<br><br>It's school housing.&nbsp; For characters like Mikaela and Olivia the school purposefully placed them in housing that would most likely accommodate them for whatever reason.&nbsp; For everyone else, the characters got lucky and were placed in a very "plush" house.&nbsp; Winners of a housing lotto, or possibly beneficiaries of unexpected water damage, smoke damage, or what have you that made their originally assigned housing unlivable.&nbsp; Scholarships can often cover school and housing but not necessarily food, gas, clothes, or books.<br><br>I don't believe the huge different in economic status is going to matter much unless the game does turn into a long term game, which I hope it does.&nbsp; At which time, I trust players to make it one of those underlying issues within the house that can cause rifts or "drama".

				Can't say I've ever seen an episode of Gossip Girl.&nbsp; I'm sure there's plenty of similar material out there though.&nbsp; It isn't like it's an original idea.<br><br>However, I'm hoping we can limit the drama, at least the negative drama, until we're well into the game.<br><br>Ultimately, I'd like to see what happens to the group and individuals after a night of "things going too far", and how people who have to live with each other behave after an out of control Truth or Dare game.&nbsp; In some ways it's playing with those concepts of friends being able to remain friends after sleeping with each other, and so forth.&nbsp;

				Hi Guy,<br>&nbsp; I just finished reading all this OOC thread. I didn't knew about it before my character have been approved.

				"Given Derek and Tristan are straight, I think Andi will more likely be there to confuse genders and add tension with their sexuality, more than to 'play both sides'."<br><br>"It does look like we have interest, though. I don't want to put anyone off, by no means am I saying we shouldn't have another guy. Either way, I think we're all eager to get going."<br><br>~<br><br>"In the vein of the latter point (getting going, that is), I'll post a clear concept of how I think Andi might relate to other people in the house."<br><br><strong>Guys</strong><br><br><em>Derek</em> - I imagine Andi would be polite and friendly with Derek, if not a little stand-offish. Unless Derek made an effort to make a friendship, Andi would probably just give him a little wave anytime they passed, or a nod, and not really speak to him.<br><br><em>Tristan</em> - Andi probably doesn't talk to Tristan, as he probably sees Tristan as the 'cool college guy', the type who doesn't talk to the outcast. Again, this would only change if Tristan tried to approach Andi.<br><br><strong>Girls</strong><br><br><em>Caroline and Emma</em> - Andi is probably polite with them, even offering to cook for them when he's around or just generally help out. Other than that, he might act a little shy around them unless they approached him. <br><br><em>Mikaela</em> - Andi is probably most inclined to have a strange, almost curious, reaction to Mikaela. Given her punk/goth/outcast look, Andi might occasionally try to stir up conversation or approach her, but its doubtful that he'd do more than hint at his interest. If Mikaela takes an interest in him, it's like Andi would strike up a friendship with her.<br><br><em>Olivia</em> - Andi would probably recognize Olivia, and he might have even talked to her about her music (one of those awkward morning, 'So... I like your music...' type of conversations when they're both in the kitchen or living room alone). If Olivia tried to pursue a friendship, Andi would reciprocate due to mutual interest, but since I want Andi's persona to be a bit of a mystery, I won't elaborate unless Jaden wants to pursue that.

				Hi,<br>&nbsp; I'm going to post here how Emma sees the other characters. It is just a start idea, so the players can tell what they think about her.<br><br>&nbsp;"Andi" Elle <br>&nbsp; &nbsp; Emma is confused about Andi. She have guessed Andi is a girl and will act that way until someone tells her Andi is a boy. Even as Emma is not so shy with him as she is with man, Andi is retired enough so I guess the two have interacted just a few times the last month. Anyway, Emma will always be polite and try to be friendly.<br><br>Derek Malcolm Davies<br>He is the guy that is mostly like to get her attention. She really likes the way he talks and how he is handsome and soft spoken. The funny thing is that she will be extra shy when he is around and will talk to him the minimum that is possible. To the point of leaving the room when he is around most time. That is not that she don't like him, bit that she really likes him.&nbsp; It is possible someone thinks she don't like him or is prejudiced, even himself. Her best friend in the house would know otherwise.<br><br>Mikaela Johnson<br>They are about the same age and can get friends very easy. I guess they should at least talk a few times on the first month and she could be Emma's best friend.<br><br>Caroline Drake<br>Being both country girls, they could easy be friends. Anyway, Emma haven't get more open as Caroline do, and she is younger, but I'm sure they should have talked more than a few times during this time.<br><br>&nbsp;Tristan MacKenzie<br>As he is quiet for most time, I don't think he is going to even had a talk with her. She don't know much about him at start and she is just kind of find what she thinks about him.<br><br>Olivia Spencer<br>Olivia is most like shy, at first, maybe they didn't talk so much. If they did, as the two are shy someway, they could had become good friends too.<br><br>

				Emma was in need of friends and Caroline looked just like an older sister for her.

				Right, I read that.&nbsp; Sorry, I assumed you were actively trying to get caught up.&nbsp; So basically it's student housing from UCLA and your character was purposefully placed at the House because someone in admittance thought it would suit your character's "lifestyle" better than dorms.&nbsp; Does that help clarify the housing thing?<br><br>The rest of the thread has various conversations going on.&nbsp; Some somewhat important others not so much.&nbsp; Right now I'm looking for input on the Rule I linked above and was wondering if you had any thoughts as to your character's interactions with the other characters.

				Honestly, the rules make no sense and confuse me. We're playing a simple child's game. I'm doing a one-on-one of a truth or dare game. This isn't even sounding fun to me anymore like it had in the beginning. I understand we need to start out small and that we have to make sure everyone is involved and doesn't get skipped. I know I won't know if I want a truth or dare until I know who is asking me. Knowing that they are students at UCLA helps a whole heck of a lot. I was attempting to catch up, but all I kept seeing was bullshit so I ignored it again. My apologies, GM. I don't see my char liking most of the people there even tho she can tolerates them. The only one I see my character, Olivia, liking is azz char, Tristen. I see my char being jealous of your char Ari. Looks mainly. The rest...I dunno....

We're playing a simple child's game. I'm doing a one-on-one of a truth or dare game. This isn't even sounding fun to me anymore like it had in the beginning. I understand we need to start out small and that we have to make sure everyone is involved and doesn't get skipped. I know I won't know if I want a truth or dare until I know who is asking me. Knowing that they are students at UCLA helps a whole heck of a lot. I was attempting to catch up, but all I kept seeing was bullshit so I ignored it again. My apologies, GM. I don't see my char liking most of the people there even tho she can tolerates them. The only one I see my character, Olivia, liking is azz char, Tristen. I see my char being jealous of your char Ari. Looks mainly. The rest...I dunno....<br></blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div><br>Okay.&nbsp; This is why I'm asking for input, suggestions to make things more fun for everyone.&nbsp; If you disagreed with what people were saying then you need to speak up and say something even if your comment is a page behind.&nbsp; It's also why I'm asking people specifically what they think.&nbsp; Calling them childish and "no fun" may be what you think and might even be accurate but it doesn't help improve anything.&nbsp; What can we change to make things more appealing?

I said in a round about way you need to trust the players that have joined you in this role play. Why should we choose so far in advance if we choose truth or dare? Play it as you should in person making sure everyone gets a turn before starting the next round.

				"I believe Aribeth's suggestion was that some players like to plan those things out, and to keep the game rolling, some people <em>may</em> want to decide those things ahead of time. However,&nbsp; we are trying to establish the basic rules for how to make sure everyone goes each turn (preferably without having the same person always 'Truth or Dare'-ing the same person each time) and what happens if someone 'chickens out' (which is common in real life games of ToD)."

				Sorry Jaden.&nbsp; I wasn't saying you were calling anyone childish or no fun, but the ideas and rules as childish or no fun.&nbsp; <br><br>As Ryuka said, you don't have to choose way ahead of time.&nbsp; It's an <span class="bbc_u">option</span> in order to attempt to keep the game from stalling and to give people opportunity to discuss things ahead of time.&nbsp; It's an attempt to make the game run smoother in the long run.&nbsp; <br><br>Nothing is set in stone and that's why I'm asking for people's input.&nbsp; We just need some effective communication.

				"I'm okay with the rules just being that someone starts, they pick someone, and then we keep going until everyone is picked and then the last person gives the first person a 'Truth or Dare'. Then the next round the next person in the cycle starts the round?"

				Sorry Azz.&nbsp; I've decided to put this off for the time being.&nbsp; Getting little to no feed back and the miscommunications just sapped any interest I had in the game.&nbsp; I apologize.
