“ t u r n d o w n f o r w h a t ? “

You’ve had your heart set on a single dream ever since you were twelve and went to your first concert. You’ve been playing music practically since you were old enough to sit at a piano, and old enough to blow your parents’ eardrums out with shrieking notes through a recorder. Thankfully, you’ve improved since then, and now, in your senior year of high school, you’ve got an opportunity.

A major agency is hosting a recruitment event, and is inviting musically talented teenagers from all over the country to audition for the chance to be part of a new band. It’s your time to shine - but can you make it in the major leagues?
---

Note: Okay, so. Basically this is a silly little idea I thought of while working on something the other day, please don’t take it too seriously. I’ve always wanted to do a music roleplay, but none of the ones I’ve been in have ever lasted longer than a week. So here we are.

Rules:
-Low literate. This means a good-sized paragraph per post. More is okay, less is not okay.
-Limited spots and roles will be available. Sign up while you can!
-For character creation, please take a role and stick to it. You’ll see what I mean if you keep reading.
-This is also planned to be silly as heck, so no totally serious-acting characters, please. Also, please consider the types of people who would be selected/have a dream like this when making your characters, for example, it wouldn’t make very much sense for a person who is a total downer of a guy and depressed to want to join a band recruitment competition, would it?
-I won’t decide what genre of music this band-to-be will play, but naturally some instruments will be needed and others won’t. Like, no kazoos, for example.
---

Music Roles:
Leading vocals - Morgan (player: Fenrizz)
Backing vocals - Allie Ray (player: Zara)
Bass guitar - open
Drums - open
Keyboard - Rose (player: Link)
Acoustic or electric guitar - open
Violin - reserved for Dick Grayson
Mixer - AJ (player: Prince)

Group Roles:
Leader - open
Second - Morgan
Manager - open
---

I won't make a form, but here's some guidelines.

Required Information for Character Forms:
Music Role
Group Role (if wanted)
Character’s name, age, gender, brief personality and history

The RP will start once all positions are filled. Let's have a good time!

Sweet! I play violin in real life so this is cool. ^^ Also I don't see it anywhere, but are we allowed to have more then one character?
Of so, I would totally play an acoustic/electric guitar person as well. If not, I totally understand. ^^


That sounds fine with me. I just wanted to check. ^^

I'd really prefer to have one character per person, but if we don't get enough people then we'll see. ^^

Brief personality: shy at first, then warms up and is loud, outgoing (sometimes TOO loud and obnoxious). Usually friendly and happy, has random depressed moods and writes songs during those snaps.
History: Came from a good home, preacher's daughter gone rebel; not gone to church in 2 years. Still is good, but has a wild streak including (but not limited to) her bright green hair

Actual truth, when depressed I write songs on my guitar/keyboard at home, and I'm dying my hair the first day of summer.

name:: Alexander James Mary {aj}
age:: Seventeen Years Ten Months
gender:: Neutral Gender {hin / han / mx / they / sie}
sexuality:: Panromantic

music role:: Mixer
group role:: {none unless needed}
musical interests:: Classic Rock - Trock - Classical - Punk Rock - Dubstep

personality:: To those who don't know them, AJ can seem a bit odd with a more foreign look to them and their clothing style, and they come off as a bit distant or rude because of their habit not to pay much attention. But once you get past the whole not noticing you phase, AJ is pretty okay. They're a bit uptight and can freak out over small things, but be really laid back and uncaring about the important stuff. They aren't very good at listening all the time, only realizing there's a conversation or someone is talking to them when their name is mentioned, actually only their nickname, or there's some sort of interesting trigger word. Going back to the uptight bit, they get flustered easily if presented the right situation, but are normally pretty calm and upbeat, even if they are a bit of a "glass half empty person". They're a bit more of an introvert, having a very select group of friends gained over time, but when around those people, they are much more open and care free.

history:: AJ came from a stereotypical modern family with family night simply watching a movie together, and then it was back to ignoring each other, there were rules both spoken and unspoken that were more or less obeyed. They didn't have many restrictions as for what they did out of the house, just take someone if you're going far, don't so illegal stuff, and so on. The only thing that really mattered were good grades and those were fairly easy to achieve with all of the spare time, since each person was in charge of their own schedule and hobbies, unless needed there wasn't much communication or coordinating.

Having always been a fan of classical and classic rock, AJ found themself hanging around the band room in their freshmen year and joined in their sophomore. Unfortunately they didn't have much luck with the usual instruments and only found out they had a natural talent for mixing when they were messing around at their friend's house. They've been interested ever since and with their selective hearing getting the right pitches comes easy.

Sorry, for now, I'm not going to accept, due to the fact that it seems you haven't read the first post thoroughly (if you had, you'd know that the age must be a senior in high school, e.g. 18-19, and the music roles are quite obvious), as well as the two WIPs in your form.

^^;

Well, here goes nothing!

Name: Morgan Cirrus
Nicknames: Morg; Leffie (short for Le Fay)
Age: 18
Gender: Female
Orientation: Pansexual
Role: Leading vocals

Appearance: http://data1.whicdn.com/images/68800073/large.jpg

Personality: Morgan is laid-back and seemingly in a constant state of chill-out, for lack of better word. She rarely responds with an emotional outburst of any sort, be it happy or sad or angry. Constantly smiling and nonchalantly flirting with both boys and girls, there is a sort of oddness around her that is oddly, not weird at all.

Bio: Morgan was raised in a kind family, one that would gently redirect her when needed, and not hesitate to praise her when she did well. Her two siblings, both older, went off to college a few years prior to Morgan's entry into high school. Despite this, they remained a close-knit family. Morgan's parents tried piano, flute, and cello on her before discovering that she had an affinity for using her voice. Years of voice training have enhanced her natural gift for singing, and she puts her natural alto voice to good use.

Range: Alto
Favorite Music Genres: Pop, classical, electronic, alternative.
