Good evening, tags! We’re a brand new carnival rp with a dark twist where everyone has a secret, including the owner herself. We’re a character development, appless group with little spooky events that will keep things fresh and fun. Come check us out!
✧・゚: *✧・゚:* Anonymous asked: hello! who are the admins and who they play? <3 ⍟——««
Admin Eli is going to play Harley Quinn (DC), Willow Rosenberg (BTVS), Johnny Cade (The Outsiders), Bruno Madrigal (Encanto), and Blaine Anderson (Glee).
Admin Cherry is going to play Sodapop Curtis (The Outsiders), Maria DeLuca (Roswell), Ben Hanscom (It), Melinda Gordon (Ghost Whisperer), and Ian Snyder (Handman’s Curse).
We’re both playing performers and carnival staff as well, so we’re not set up to show boat.

JOHNNY CADE HAS ENTERED THE CARNIVAL!

Welcome! Please check out our welcome greeting and then send your blog link to the main. Don’t forget, we have an ooc Discord server as well and we’d love to have you there to plot.
✧・゚: *✧・゚:* Anonymous asked: Can you give some examples of jobs that the characters could have? ⍟——««
Anything and everything that it takes to run a carival, we will need here. We have one mechanic on our masterlist, but with all of the rides and trailers involved we always have room for more. Other jobs that aren’t a performance style include:
game operators
ride operators
ticket taker
attendants that help people to their seat for shows
attendants that sell food and souvenirs during the shows
clean-up crew
odd jobs like cooking, washing clothes, etc
assistants for performers
✧・゚: *✧・゚:* Anonymous asked: Any ideas for performance styles? ⍟——««
At the end of the day, we’re trying to put on a show here. So I need diversity and harmony if we want this to be realistic. Think about the character you’re auditioning for, what their talents are, anything that their secret might be able to contribute to the thinking process, and some of your favorite circus and carnival experiences— whether those be from a television show or real life. You can find inspiration from characters in other stuff about carnivals— like Cirque Du Freak, the latest season of American Horror Story, and the last season of Heroes. If you’re looking for specific ideas;
Lion tamer
Tight-rope walker
High wire performer
Fire tamer
Sword swallower
Bearded lady
Strong (wo)man
Illusionist
Contortionist
Carnival dancer (which can include things like fire hula hoops and cage dancing)
✧・゚: *✧・゚:* Anonymous asked: is this a supernatural rp? ⍟——««
If someone apples with a character with supernatural influence, I'd accept them here. That could be their secret, or a second secret. It would definitely fit with the main plot. Just know that nobody can be powerful enough to godmod, or meta, so if you have a character that is all-knowing or al-powerful you can say that there's something at the carnival dimming their powers.
✧・゚: *✧・゚:* Anonymous asked: what characters and secrets do you already have taken? ⍟——««
Blaine Anderson is a knife thrower that's been at the carnival for years, whose secret is that he kills with his knives.
Sodapop Curtis is a mechanic that's been at the carnival for years and fixes things, but secretly faked his own death at 21 after learning his longtime girlfriend and high school sweetheart Sandy had become pregnant by another man.
Ben Hanscom is new to the carnival and learning skills, but secretly he got one of the girls he was casually sleeping with pregnant. Fearful of being a father and unable to come to terms with the fact that he’s remaines madly in love with Beverly Marsh, he ran.
Harley Quinn is new to the carnival and came with two hyenas that she tames for her act, but secretly she had a baby that she hid from everyone, including her on again, off again abusive lover.
✧・゚: *✧・゚:* Anonymous asked: mwc? ⍟——««
We have characters taken already from DC, It, The Outsiders, and Glee so any of those fandoms have people you can plot with already here. Other fandoms that I think would do well include Dr. Who, Ghostbusters, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Sailor Moon, Harry Potter, and any fandom or character with secrets or a reason to run away and join the carnival would do well here.
✧・゚: *✧・゚:* Anonymous asked: are multi muse blogs allowed? ⍟——««
Yes. They do make it much easier to play and keep up with multiple characters. It's easier to make one blog than many.
✧・゚: *✧・゚:* Anonymous asked: what are some good secrets? ⍟——««
There is a link on the navigation and you can google things like "rp secrets tumblr" to get more lists, but here are some things that I can see going well here:
supernatural powers, keeping in mind that we're doing fantasy witchcraft here like BTVS, Sabrina, Harry Potter, etc not real life Wicca
supernaturally cursed
vampire/werewolf/etc
embezzlement/big stealing/bad business decisions
running from a crime
running from family
is secretly married, whether the spouse knows where they are or not
secretly has a child, whether they're trying to keep the baby a secret at the carnival or the baby is elsewhere
secret love, including being in the closet or loving someone secretly, whether this person is a wanted connection for you or not
being blackmailed/blackmailing
a health condition they don't want anyone to know about
a fake health condition or quirk that they made up to seem more interesting
secretly pretends they're doing everything for the first time so people pay more attention to them {aka the person everyone thinks is a first time drinker so they babysit them}
they let someone else take the blame for something they did
sex work, including OnlyFans or sugaring
pretends to be smart but secretly Googles everything they need to talk about right before they do it aka faking it 'til they make it
pretends to be dumb but they're secretly intelligent
pretends to like things all the time just because other people do
got plastic surgery, but haven’t told anyone because i want them to think its natural
goes to a pet psychic whenever their pet is in a mood
secretly runs an anonymous hate blog
secretly catfishes people
they're a compulsive liar
I also want to note that if you're going to go for sensitive topics, please be mature and self-aware about it. What I mean by that is, if you aren't affected by that specific topic personally, please do research before you bring it onto the dash. This goes for narcotics, disorders, mental health, gender dysphoria etc, harm, and topics like those. Secrets also do not have to be heavy topics, they can be simple and even comedic if you want them to be.
✧・゚: *✧・゚:* Anonymous asked: would you accept trans characters? ⍟——««
Absolutely, unequivocally, without questions. Here's the thing for me, very few characters tell anyone what their specific gender is through literal words that come out of their mouth. Now, in the real world, don't we go under the ideal that you're not supposed to assume gender? That you wait for someone to tell you and if they tell you something different than what you came up with, you just say okay and that's that? So why do we assume the gender of fictional characters? You can base it off of what the fc has said about themselves, but then you've got the issue of the fact that people don't really cast appropriately. Most of the very few canonically stated trans characters are played by cis actors, and often time cis actors of the wrong gender completely.
But here's the thing with rp, I'm here to be inclusive and have fun. You're here to have fun. Even if you want to play a character that canonically says or does something reveals their canon gender and you'd prefer to play them as non-binary or transgender, you can do that here! An example being, perhaps you favorite character is a canon cis woman that has a baby as one of her plots. Perhaps you'd prefer to play her as a trans woman, because that's how you personally identify with that character. Go ahead. You can either write out the baby or have her be the other half of the baby-making formula instead. I will never mind fiddling with canon to allow more inclusivity.
✧・゚: *✧・゚:* Anonymous asked: so is this a town rp? the carnival travels? ⍟——««
It's a traveling carnival, and it will move from state to state in the US and potentially even into Canada and Mexico and beyond. The way that this carnival works is that it's fueled by magic, so it can go anywhere in a flash. It moves at night while the performers are asleep, and it happens so fast that nobody notices it. I'll be making a post in character as the owner and leader of the carnival once before we move locations and once afterwards to announce the new location. Nobody will know where they're going until they get there.
✧・゚: *✧・゚:* Anonymous asked: What other kinds of supernatural creatures would you accept into this rp? ⍟——««
As long as it isn't over the top, I'm sure I'll accept it. If you're stumped, you can look into lore and myth. Some examples are;
vampires
werewolves
ghosts
sirens
mermaids
faeries
kitsune
resurrected dead
shapeshifters
succubus/incubus

WHO CAN YOU TRUST? WILL YOU BE NEXT?
Everyone knows the Dark Carnival as a place of mystery and wonder. The show is constantly on the road, it appears without warning, and leaves without a trace. So it’s no wonder that nobody ever connects the strange happenings that follow the carnival’s tour path. What the outside world doesn’t know is that all of the employees at the carnival have something to hide, and not all of them are as friendly as they seem. Even so, it came as a shock when the first carnival employee disappeared. People don’t just leave the Dark Carnival. But there was no evidence of foul play– or at least none that was officially released.
The Dark Carnival Of Secrets is an open fandom roleplay that accepts characters from all fandoms. Mature themes will be present, so we ask that all applicants be 18+. Ask about our ooc Discord server.
