In the heart of Manhattan, Obsesse Magazine is skyrocketing to the top of fashion’s elite hierarchy and has already developed a mass following with their innovative style and fresh aesthetic that is all at once classic and cutting edge.
Fame is one hell of a drug and it seems that everyone at Obsesse is in danger of getting addicted. The claws are out and everyone is more than willing to get their spot in the limelight at any costs.
Do you have what it takes to make it to the top? ACCEPTANCES ARE MONDAYS, WEDNESDAYS, AND FRIDAYS.
Obsesse Magazine is a melting pot where anyone from any walk of life can find a chance to enter the fashion world and climb the ranks. For this task, however, we're interested in finding out how your character landed within Obsesse's stylish world -- did they make friends with the right people? Did they storm their way in? Did it just happen? It can be a moment, a build-up, an epiphany, anything.
Be creative! Tell a story, include pictures if you want --- just portray your character's tale in the best way you see fitting.
This task will take place from AUG 23 - AUG 30. Make sure you tag it 'obmtask' so we can look through and read everyone's tale!

1. NAME / ALIAS, AGE, TIMEZONE: Bells, 18, PST
2. ANTICIPATED ACTIVITY (1 - 10): 7
3. CHARACTER NAME, AGE, & FC: Zara Elizabeth Darcy, 17, Sophie Turner
4. CHARACTER CAREER: Intern
5. THREE POSITIVE AND NEGATIVE TRAITS: + creative, friendly, youthful —naive, self-centered, overly-dramatic
6. CHARACTER BIO: If anyone heard that the world was ending, it would probably be coming from the mouth of Zara Darcy. Anything and everything related to her is cause for an uproar of the most dramatic proportions. Her nail chipped, there isn’t enough ice cream in the freezer, a girl looked at her forehead for a little bit too long, she got a spot of wine on her new skirt. It’s almost as if every emotion goes through a magnifying glass for Zara and she doesn’t have the self-control to detain them. Her reasoning is that happy this are really happy, but sad things are absolutely disastrous and should be expressed at all costs. She flits like a butterfly from flower to flower, and if someone tries to talk to her she takes a bit more time to respond unless it pertains directly to her, even then it seems like her voice is constantly in italics. Zara’s been described as a complete air-head, but that’s only because things don’t hold her interest. She’s incredibly involved in anatomy and has studied it in school for several years, much to the surprise of her classmates. Her mother wants her to become a doctor, but how can she when you have to go to school for eight extra years and it’d be much easier to just dissect a skeleton on her own? When she isn’t bopping along to the current top 40 hits or shopping, Zara can be found glued to her phone on Twitter. Instagram, Facebook, and Vine.
Her mother used to live in Manhattan before being swept off her feet by a small-time politician and moving to upstate New York to have her first child, Zara. It was a rather nice childhood, with a picket fence and a bright red bicycle. She was always an exuberant child that her mother never knew what to do with. Years later, when Zara was twelve, her little brother was born. The problem is, no one was sure who the father was. Of course her own father was blissfully ignorant until last month, when the birth father showed up on their doorstep. This led to a three week long pissing contest that ended in divorce papers shoved onto her mother’s bedside table. Zara was flummoxed, never having to deal with actual intense emotions before, and fled her house in the middle of the night for her aunt’s residence in New York City. She won’t tell Emma what happened, not for anything, and the bottling up of her emotions just might make her explode.
9. ONE-TWO CONNECTIONS: The niece of Emma Parker.
10. ANYTHING ELSE?: I’m not entirely sure what to put down for her job so I just said intern. She’s not exactly a socialite and she does show up on Emma’s doorstep unannounced, so technically she doesn’t have a job yet. I’d think that Emma would give her one just to keep her occupied for a while.
6. CHARACTER BIO (1+ PARAGRAPH) Sage was born in 1991 to Cordelia Wellington and Serge Murgatroyd. Her morher came from a very wealthy family whose kingdom fell on Manhattan, and herself being the daughter of a fashion designer. Her father was part of a well-known family in the British community, him being an ambassador for the country. The girl, of course, was brought up in the luxury and lifestyle of an Upper East Sider. Sage’s father was usually never home, always too busy traveling from the United States to the United Kingdom and so on. Her mother, so invested in her socialite life and her just for fun work as a model, was barely home. The brunette was raised by her nanny, Anya, just as many others in her social class. The truth is the girl didn’t mind it a bit, she found a confident and helper in Anya, and yet got everything she wanted because her parents excused their absent by eternal and ever more stunning and ever more expensive gifts to her. Sage grew up to be a beautiful young lady, who never missed a social event, who loved shopping and being fashionable, who felt as if she had the world at her feet. But despite being such a perfect image of what every girl could ever dream to be, Sage was cold hearted and reluctant to relationships, she used mean ways to get what she wanted, she didn’t care to humiliate and hurt people as long as they weren’t her friends. And if that didn’t seem wrong enough for a person to be, her ways sometimes left her all by herself, unsure of what the real world that most people were living in was like, always fighting with her friends and having stupid problems that most people wouldn’t mind having. After her 23rd birthday, she realized it was time to mature, stop playing high school games and try and figure out a real life. It is hard for the girl to step out of her schedule and try risking more stuff, if she’s not determined she won’t make it. She’s been going to Columbia University and focusing in her future, but she still has a lot to learn about life, and the change surely doesn’t start with calling her grandmother to ask her to design her a new dress for her shoot with Obsess next week, but maturing doesn’t mean she’s going to stop wearing Prada or Gucci.
7. HOW DO YOU SEE THEIR ROLE IN THE RP?: To be honest, I see her as the girl who would be everywhere and act like she doesn’t care about anything but herself. But who will eventually open up and form relationships, and start seeing the beauty in others and start valuing people’s talents and trying to give a hand, as the same time, of course, that she would try to reach the highest spot on the social pyramid

Removed for privacy
9. ONE-TWO CONNECTIONS (OPTIONAL): I am awaiting for Nicole’s reply, but in case she says yes, I’m thinking Sage could have a connection with Reina. But either way, being a socialite, I think Sage would have a lot of connections as in knowing important people.
10. ANYTHING ELSE?: I don’t think I have anything else to say but wish the admins a good day!
Congrats, Jen! Your application for Priya Wakeling has been accepted, along with your FC change!

2. ANTICIPATED ACTIVITY (1 - 10): 8
3. CHARACTER DESIRED: Priya Wakeling
4. WHY DID YOU CHOOSE THIS CHARACTER?: No lie, I had this precise experience moving to new york city and ultimately ending up disillusioned. Priya speaks to me. I feel her feels. *places hand dramatically over heart*
5. SAMPLE PARA (2+ PARAGRAPHS):
Removed for privacy!
6. ANYTHING ELSE? / CHANGES: fc change to Lucy Liu, pls. :) Thanks, guys!
Congrats, Liz! Your application for Rowan Pitt has been accepted! Your sample was amazing to read, and we can’t wait to have you here~ :)
3. CHARACTER DESIRED: Rowan Pitt
4. WHY DID YOU CHOOSE THIS CHARACTER?: I enjoyed reading his bio. I think him being safe and not wanting to further his career is driven by being scared of failure. So he does the bare minimum to get by and for right now that’s the best thing for him. It’s the easy way. And I’d love to have a chance to be able to play him.
5. SAMPLE PARA (2+ PARAGRAPHS): REMOVED FOR PRIVACY.
