The Tourists (OOC, OPEN, TG to apply & for more info)

Postby Astholm » Mon Feb 10, 2014 4:51 am

In this RP, a millionaire has decided to take people to see parts of Astholm they normally don't or wouldn't see, but these are not the usual tourist attractions, but things of historical or social significance locally, but not internationally.

He is a millionaire who has made his money through print media and owning several radio stations; he occasionally makes on-air appearances on them, not just because he enjoys it, but also to get a feel for what his employees do, and he has already done this in his career progression.

The basic plotline is this; the tourists (a group) stay at one of his residences - in this case, a manor house - which is in the rural-urban fringe in Steinbekkby, a town with a population of 86,940, and a mixture of tourism/industry makes up its main industry. It is part of the Borough of Steinbekkby unitary authority, and has the following towns nearby:
Engeby
Kemping (Viking historical town)
Ingbirkfield (market town, produces its own cheeses)

The residence is off the newly-built A662E spur road, in the village of Kirklevington-on-Wyske (a small rural village which is a commuter town).

My character will be a tour guide of sorts, except he uses his connections to show a select group of individuals who have paid for the privilege of the 'genuine' Astholm experience (I put it in commas as it's not within touristy things)

How this RP goes is up to you.

BASIC RULES


No godmoding.
No terrorist attacks (Two reasons; 1. It is unlikely in this part of the Astholm world, and; 2. It is a gentle RP)
No murdering a character (OK, so there may be a deaths in this, but only for NPC's)
TG me if you wish to apply for this


Participating characters
Carl Alleyn, one of the owners of Surmedia Ltd. (38, worked in media and radio for 21 years)


I hope this goes well, and please feel free to use this OOC thread to help me develop it! :)

I have multiple puppets here; only a select few are used to represent the continent of Astholm; others used represent Westholme, and do not artificially boost my nation's statistics.Previously i used puppets with nation names that did not identify as Astholm (e.g. Australis Australia; now all new puppets use ASTHLM, NORTHLM, SOUTHLM, WESTHLM (HLM denoting The Holmes.
NOTE: Other uses of Astholm here have a different continuity and refer to work created by the user Astholm, not the nation

This also includes Cloned humans as M/T technology has not progressed in cloning entire humans yet. PS I don't do war RP's either.

Accepted! This RP will go a bit better than Daily Life in Astholm, hopefully!

Police commissioner of the Grootrivier Police District Willem van den Tempel, 36, will be visiting Astholm.

Van den Tempel had been reading a book about Astholm a while back and when he received the invitation to visit Astholm he decided to accept it right away. . As a history buff of the worst kind van den Tempel planned to visit Enkeby and since he was a bachelor and he had been saving up his holiday time he didn't need to worry about time restrictions. One day he decided to make an appointment at the Astholm legation in Handelshaven,taking his invitation with him. When he came walking into the legation building a friendly Astholm soldier showed him the way to the waiting room.

Accepted; but this RP has no military input, it's about tourism! :)
