Bump to remind Moot to make his character. I'll be making the initial post whenever I finish writing it when my power comes back on. We can always have people join after we start too

<3 Yay!

Ok I'm doing it!! I briefly considered taking up the mantle of father myself, but I decided for once not to take an authoritarian role.

Name: Vicenzo Prospero
Age: 21
Relation in the family: Son

Character backstory: Somewhat aloof and elusive in personality, Vecenzo has spent most of his life involved in education, first attending school and then taking up work in a local library ran by the father of a friend for a bit of money and the opportunity to immerse himself in the writings and worlds of others. Despite his lack of formal education past secondary school, he feels a good and noble man is well-educated and should be continuously interested in learning, so he takes every opportunity to teach himself new skills possible. Thus far, fortune hasn't been kind to him since arriving in the land of opportunity...there are few opportunities in the education field for someone that hasn't attended college, and the few odd jobs he has been able to take on teaching people to read, write, or do basic math have earned him a pittance to contribute to the family. Obviously, things have gone even worse since the stock market crashed, as people are merely trying to survive and aren't interested in 'higher pursuits'.

American Dream: To form a school and have a positive impact on the next generation of children, who aren't much younger than him. Compulsory education has only been universally mandated in America for about ten years now, and schooling is still lacking across the nation, especially rural areas and during these rough times. Again, most aren't interested in anything other than survival...

It seems you missed the relation to the family

Actually, I missed a question...is 24 too old to be a son? How old is the mother?

My character is her sister, and I'm the middle child from that family, so therefore the mother is at least more than 35.

Do you have a max on that?

At 35, she would have given birth when she was 11.

I'm not sure, I mean, no higher than like 45 ideally, but I'm open to any solid ideas you may have

I lowered my age to 21...that should put it to her having me somewhere between her mid-teens and mid-twenties. It also seems to fit in well with Denth and Golden's ages.

Is that alright with you?

That's perfect! Thank you for your cooperation.

I aim to please

I'm not the best at RP, but I hope I'll be able to be an asset to yours!

I got something for your asset right here..

Sorry for the delay guys, it's been like 32 hours since I lost power, and it's still not back. As soon as it is though, I'll type up the first post and we can get started.

I hope you get it back soon Daph..

Okay, so I'm attempting to create a family tree. but I'm a bit stuck on two characters. Aldo(Drexyl) and Matteo(ORCA) are cousins, but that's as far as I know.

Now, I wouldn't think any of them are Agatha's (Daphne) or Antonio's(JW), as Agatha never seemed to be in the right position to have a child (being a prostitute/drug dealer), and the only child Antonio had was with an English lady.

Now, as Agatha is the middle child at 35, there are, I'm going to presume, three children then. So, the youngest Aunt, the oldest she can be would be 34.

 So she can't be Aldo's mother as that would have made her ten when she gave birth, and, around that time, a girl had menarche at above the age of 12, so Aldo would have to be from the dad's side of the family, where there hasn't been a set number of family members.

  However, Matteo, at age 17, could be the youngest Aunt's son, as she would be able to give birth at the age of 17.

  I also don't see them as brothers, as Matteo's back-story doesn't seem conducive to one.

  So. I was thinking that, for convenience sake, I would make Matteo a cousin on the Mothers side from the youngest Aunt, and Aldo the son of an Uncle on the Fathers side, though the Uncle would be estranged since he beat Aldo.
