extra info.

+ the man the six accidentally killed was a homeless man who had taken shelter in the house from the storm. he wasn’t actually attacking them. they startled him, he fought back in self defense and then he was fleeing the house when they ran over him.

+ each of the original six have been visited by something or someone who is trying to scare them. they’ve had broken mirrors/windows, messages written in blood, creepy phone calls, other scary things you can think of. this is what prompts them to meet back up when they return home. they feel like something is coming for them.

+ the killer is one of these characters. depending on how this goes, characters will probably start dying. but whoever takes the killer, i’ll let you know you’re playing the killer so you can plan accordingly.

+ the listed relationships are just the pre-established ones at the beginning of the roleplay. you can decide how the six mix with the four. definitely feel free to form new friendships or romances between the groups.

+ here’s how the colleges break down: A: Bethany & Jada go to the same school and are roommates. B: Wilder & Chad go to the same school and are frat brothers and housemates. Addison goes to the same school as Wilder & Chad and is a sorority sister. C: Evan doesn’t go to school with any of them. D: The new four all go to the same school. (So, if that’s confusing, there are four separate colleges here, all within about an hour from their hometown. Sorry that description came out like some whack ass math problem.)

+ everyone has just finished their freshman year of college and returned home for the summer. you can decide the exact age/birthdate of your character if you wish.

+ yes, this roleplay takes place in august of 2019. we are living in the future.

+ any other questions? (i’ve probably forgotten something important.) feel free to ask!

premise.

august 11, 2018.

six friends met for the last time before they would each go their separate ways to their new colleges. they wouldn’t be travelling far. each would be within about an hour of the group. but it would be the first time they would be apart. the six had grown up together. even though their lives had changed and they’d changed, they’d stayed friends. and now they would all be going their separate ways.

they met that night in the same abandoned house they’d been coming to all through high school. it was their place. or it had been. on this night, they weren’t alone.

it was your stereotypical horror night. pouring rain, crashing thunder, blinding lightning. man with a baby mask. and when he appeared, they screamed and ran. but he pursued. and as they were backing out of the driveway, running for their lives, their car thunked over a body. his body.

so they buried him in the woods. and they never spoke of that night again.

present day.

until now.

the six returned for the summer but their lives had all changed. but the knowledge of what happened last summer was too great. so they decided to meet again. on the one year anniversary of the death.

but this time they aren’t alone. the house has been found by others. and while the others don’t know what happened there, they know something happened there. but they just think the house is haunted.

but then, something else joins them in the house, or rather, someone. and the six know their secret is no longer safe. someone found out what they did. or someone hasn’t settled with the past.

all they know is the ten of them will have to fight to stay alive. or they might just be the killer’s next victim.

and here? well, everyone is a suspect here. trust no one....
