Sleuth Home - Message Boards - Role Playing Stage

Who can join: Anyone (reading Reformed Burglars Never Rest would be nice)

Rules: The game is based on turns, like usual Role Playing Games, which means, no 'moving' someone else's characters unless you have previously talked about it.
Plus, I'd like (that's not a rule, though) that off topics would come marked in some of the following ways:
OFF - X, have you read my PM?
(X, have you read my PM?)
[X, have you read my PM?]

No need to ask to join, just post. The O'Learies are all NPC's, so anyone can 'move' or speak for them.

It was a rainy night, and Elizabeth March, as she was now called, was on the street with no umbrella. It was no accident. She had gone out when she saw it was raining. Rain always helped cooling her mind off.

The woman let out a deep sigh and went into a small cafe.

Removing her dripping coat, she hung it by the door and found a table. After ordering an Irish Coffee and a muffin, she opened a small notebook and started writing almost feverishly.

The waiter's voice took her off her nearly hypnotic state.

"Miss, the gentleman over there asked me to give you this.", he said, holding out an envelope.

She took it.

"Does he want an answer?"

The man shook his head meaning 'no' and walked away as she opened the envelope.

In it, there was a picture of herself when she was still Constance Doyle.

She froze for a moment before ripping it to pieces.

Cancelling her order, she ran out of the cafe, in a state of panic. As she was at the door, she bumped hard on someone, and fell seated on the floor. Unable to say a word, she just looked up.

"Hmm, that's a nice Irish coffee..." Vulkie said, as she took a sip from her coffee.

"Thanks. I made it myself, the coffee, I mean. Not the liquor..." the cafe owner responded and Vulkie smiled.

"Don't worry. I'm not a cop or so.. just a regular Sleuth" Vulkie replied and the cafe owner lifted his hand from his chest.

"That's a big relief then. I've been having some trouble with the cops lately" the cafe owner responded.

Vulkie nodded to the cafe owner, as she saw a woman enter the cafe. "Anyway, the police are now off my back for a while." the cafe owner continued.

"Yes... I gotta go to the toilet, be right back... I want to hear more about this" Vulkie said and went to the toilet.

She placed her hands at the sink, watching in the mirror. "This can't continue, not this way at least.... Drinking coffee.... Haven't heard anything yet from anyone..." Vulkie murmered and "splashed" some water in her face.

"Tell me more..." Vulkie began, but got bumped into by the woman who entered earlier.

The woman looked up and surprise was seen on her face.

"Vulkie... Haven't seen you in a while!" Elizabeth March said Vulkie automatically smiled.

"Why the rush?" Vulkie asked and waited for an answer...

(a small addition. "Vulkie... Haven't seen you in a while!" Elizabeth March said Vulkie automatically smiled. (A . or the word And can be place between said and Vulkie. Just forgot it xD) )

(Sorry to whatever may have felt offended by the single rule I've put here. I was just trying to get things a bit more organised. It has been brought to my attention, though, that this style is not appreciated, therefore I withdraw.)
