All Alone RP Welcome to All Alone RP
Players: 10/10
Waiting List: Open
Season: Fall
In this RP you will be playing the role of an Orphan living in a big city during the Victorian or Great Depression Era. You will have to figure out how to survive and earn a living for yourself. You can interact with other players in this RP as well.
This is a player response game. I will give you a description of what is happening and it is up to perform your own action (Within reason of course)
Victorian Era: 1888
Great Depression Era: 1938
(Start Below)
You give a yawn, stretching as you sit in the park bench. Around you people bustle, hurrying to and fro as they head to work. A few blocks away you can hear peddlers calling from the Market Stalls and the smell of food drifts through the air, reminding you of how hungry you are. Since you got laid off as the Paper Deliverer yesterday and only have five shillings left and you knew that wouldn't go far. You would have to figure out getting money and food, preferably soon. You have to try your best to survive as Winter is drawing near and that could be the killer to homeless orphans like you.
