Name: Jay Palins
Age: 46
Occupation: Tow Truck Driver
Appearance: He is a very lean man, and a bit short, at 5' 7", he wears khaki cargo shorts and a plaid shirt. Brown eyes, and wears aviator sunglasses. Usually wears a Panthers hat as well. Brown hair.
Personality: He is generally untalkative, focusing more on his work, which gets him in trouble sometimes. He also is an anxious man, scared of the things around him, mostly bugs.
Biography: Jay was born in Chattanooga, Tennessee, and spent his life up until after high school there, when he moved to Knoxville to go to he University of Tennessee. He majored in mechanical engineering, but dropped out after he was fired from his job. He moved around, getting and losing jobs, until he ended up keeping one in Kissimmee, as a tow truck driver.
Minor Notes: He has a dog named Sue. She is a basset hound.
RP Sample: I've mostly done character RP in my region, but here's a sample: Sample

I think it's cool that you're branching out. Welcome to P2TM RPs. I think you picked a good one to start off with.

Name: Stewart Campbell
Age: 27
Occupation: Pub bouncer, although he can do and has worked odd jobs every now and then.
Appearance:
Image
A fairly old picture (one from 2017 to be precise) but it's still an idea of what he looks like. Basically imagine the above guy but a bit more weathered and with a more patchy beard. He's also 6' 0", weighs 176lb and is fairly, as he puts it, "hench". Not necessarily a body builder or any other muscular person but there is some definition there.

Personality: The best way to describe him is "grumpy" and "sarcastic". He isn't necessarily a violent person like your standard stereotypical Glaswegian but he does have that aura that he woke up on the wrong side of bed... every single morning. Whether it be because of people messing up badly, people irritating him in other ways or things just not working out the way he wanted them to, expect him to be absolutely miserable about it. Especially if it's that middle one, where he tends to dish out some creative insults. Swears are not uncommon. Tends to be very opinionated, especially after he's had a few. In other words, he's pretty much a grey Scottish raincloud in the Sunshine State.

However, there is more to him than that. He's friendly to wait staff, cleaners and children unless they deliberately go out of their way to antagonise him. He is also fairly intelligent, even if he didn't go to university and went on the dole after finishing college (for the record, colleges and universities over in the UK are two completely different things). And not only is he fond of his job as a bouncer but also he tends to be dedicated and committed to whatever odd job he's been tasked with, although if it's a job that's very disgusting or embarrassing expect him to be very unpleased with it as he sees it through to completion.
Biography: Stewart John Gregory Campbell was born on the Drumchapel estate in Glasgow, Scotland, on 7th July, 1994. And, as expected when growing up in a particularly rough area, he didn't have the best childhood. His parents were both unemployed and they split up when he was five years old, forcing him and his older sister Rhiannon to divide their time between both houses. Furthermore he found himself on both sides of the law; he was burgled three times before he was ten years old (once before it was Christmas) and he was also found Not Proven of breaking and entering when he was 15, mostly due to a lack of evidence confirming that he was actually involved in it. Fortunately, despite the roughness of his surroundings, he was able to find some solace in rugby (where he won a couple of local tournaments for his school) and even attended the City of Glasgow College where he studied Sports Coaching, even if he didn't carry on higher education afterwards.

How he ended up in Florida is a mystery. It also doesn't help that he isn't always consistent with it, so expect him to give out many different explanations or just be vague with it entirely. Some of his explanations include "winning the lottery and being robbed of all but a few grand", "wanting to move somewhere warm and he couldn't afford Australia", "had to leave Glasgow for angering the wrong person" and just "Ah took a plane o'er". Either way, he's in Kissimmee, FL with only his wits and enough money to last him a while, he decided to find some employment while he was over here. Although he was rejected for a number of them, he was eventually able to secure a job at the Dreamland Motel as a bouncer for the new pub. It may be an absolute questionable dump but at least it comes with bed and board. Not to mention that there's no better way of keeping things relatively peaceful than by hiring a guy that no one can really understand that well.
Minor Notes:
  • Supports Rangers FC and the Scottish national team (and indeed he and his family are some of the rare people who support both) when it comes to football/soccer; supports Glasgow Warriors and the Scottish national rugby union team; and supports the UCF Knights college football team, although he does have jerseys for the Glasgow Diamonds and Scottish Claymores gridiron teams.
  • Don't call him "English", don't bring up Scotland's game against Australia at the 2015 Rugby World Cup, don't be all up in his grill about how smoking is bad for him, don't insult Rangers (unless you're a fellow Glaswegian and/or you don't like how two teams essentially dominate Scottish football) and he has a real chip on his shoulder when it comes to class.
  • Tends to listen to a lot of rap music, although it's mostly grime and drill. He can tolerate some mumble rap but if it's clear that they're not even trying (or 6ix9ine/"SixixNineine") then expect him to treat the stereo like he's about to score a RWC-winning drop goal. While he can and does listen to other genres, that's what he's mostly into. He's also fond of Scooter and happy hardcore.
  • Has a few tattoos: One of the Rangers FC crest on his chest (just above his right nipple), an outline of Scotland with a Scottish flag on the inside, a tribal sleeve on his left arm and the sun from the Screamadelica cover on his lower back.
  • He mostly speaks English albeit with a noticeable accent, although he does have a tendency to slip into Scots every now and then. He can understand Gàidhlig but not speak it.
  • Much like the vast majority of Rangers fans, he's a Protestant. In this case, he's a member of the Church of Scotland (or "The Kirk" as he calls it). While he doesn't attend that much anymore, for obvious reasons, he does still have a sense of faith.
  • Occasional smoker, although he tends to roll his own rather than smoke already made cigarettes; when he does, he tends to smoke Pall Malls because he can't seem to find his other two favourites (Richmond and L&B) over in the States.
  • While he may seem like a walking stereotype, he does deviate in some aspects: He doesn't drink that much (instead cigarettes and donuts are more his vices), he has no problem lending money out to people (and he doesn't claim interest either) just as long as you arrange to pay him back one way or another, he hates bagpipes, he only wears kilts on special occasions (not even holidays like Burns Night or St. Andrew's Day) and will very rarely get into fights, instead preferring to use reasoning, then his language and will only come to blows if there's no other choice.
RP Sample: Here if you want a more recent RP example (albeit from NS Sports), Here is a massive collab post with someone who has since left NS (and for the record Peter is my character) and here is another post I did with the same character.

Quote of the Week: "A NEW STORY ON WRITING THREAD FOR HALLOWEEN!! MYSTERY MINE AVAILABLE NOW!"

RPs I do
- How do you do fellow kids? You want to see something violent? - Artemis: Deimos Trafficking League (Horror/Mature)
- Descend into the forgotten tourist traps of Florida on this transgressive RP! - The Community (Mature/Black Comedy/Slice-of-Life)

My overall account that I use for P2TM and even for international roleplaying! MNM is a mysterious and extremely dangerous dictatorship filled with supernatural oddities, demons, militarized soldiers everywhere, and a misanthropic nihilistic dictator who doesn't give a damn. It's basically if the SCP Foundation got mixed with 1984.

Just a reminder: In future posts I might censor some of Stewart's swearing just to avoid the RP going over the PG-13 mark, especially if it's a part where there's a lot of it. So if you see parts where it's like MUCK, FIT, SPLAT, etc. then you'll know.

Not to mention that I imagine Brent would probably change things as he goes along, either because he's forgotten them as well or they sound too outlandish for newcomers.

There's already some F-bombs, but from watching Trainspotting, I can confirm that some Scottish language do need to be censored.

- How do you do fellow kids? You want to see something violent? - Artemis: Deimos Trafficking League (Horror/Mature)
- Descend into the forgotten tourist traps of Florida on this transgressive RP! - The Community (Mature/Black Comedy/Slice-of-Life)

My overall account that I use for P2TM and even for international roleplaying! MNM is a mysterious and extremely dangerous dictatorship filled with supernatural oddities, demons, militarized soldiers everywhere, and a misanthropic nihilistic dictator who doesn't give a damn. It's basically if the SCP Foundation got mixed with 1984.

Does the motel need one of those weird people who somehow always know the right people to get whatever it is you need?

As long as things don't go overboard, I can allow it. Though, Retch and the crew are going to end up in the middle of town to get fireworks. Want to introduce your character there?

Name: Clara Herrmann
Age: 26
Occupation: It often appears that Clara's occupation is knowing the right people, though she does a great line in con-artistry. She is also the hotel's very eratic stock-buyer.
Appearance: Unlike most people at the dreamland motel, Clara looks after her appearance although how she can get hold of the money to be able to look as she does is anyones guess. She is around 5 ft 7 in height with the classic Nordic blue eyes and thick blonde hair which she styles but allows to flow freely. She typically wears make-up designed to emphasise her clear blue eyes, high cheekbones and aristocratic-looking face but not so much to be tasteless. One can realise what sort of day it is going to be in the world of Clara by what sort of clothes she is wearing: should she be expecting to have to impress then the designer dresses will come out. If there would be meetings she would have a smart business suit. Expecting trouble, it would be combat trousers and a top that she probably doesn't realise is revealing. She speaks with a clipped german accent, smokes like a chimney and moves with the look of someone who is always in a rush.
Personality: Clara has developed a reputation as being something of a charmer, as well as a highly reliable person. Her trick is to find out what you want, find the person who can get it to you, put both parties in contact and take a finders fee. Since the bmw parked out the front of the motel is the one thing that makes tourists think that maybe high-class people come here after all, and the gold rings on her fingers make her look like a society girl, Clara is exceptionally good at her job. Unfortunately nobody knows this as well as Clara, and she often treads on peoples toes, especially Retch's by 'sorting out something that needs doing' without previously consulting him. She will present him with a bill once it has been sorted out. She often takes unnecessary risks, especially around things that criminals often look down on; she's happy to sell to kids for example and does not respect gang boundaries. She is more than likely going to get stabbed sometime soon, but she's blissfully unaware of this fact.
Biography: Clara was born to a wealthy family in Frankfurt who dealt mainly in the export and import of goods. These goods were risky but profitable, and were often the sort of goods that your friendly import-export company would not go anywhere near if they had any sense. Import and export was however a very good façade for the dodgy computer parts, shiploads of drugs, unregistered guns and stolen vehicles that were mixed in with other consignments that went through her parents businesses however. For young Clara it meant she got to attend some very good private schools where she learned how to be a good little rich heiress.
Her dreams were shattered however when she turned 14, at around the time her parents took a risk too many and were sentenced to a lengthy time in a German prison, with more to come in the Netherlands if they ever got out of it. This meant for young Clara, a girl with no known living relatives, that it really had to be the foster care system or a childrens home...and with Germany's care system being so underfunded it ended up being the childrens home.
The childrens home was where Clara learned all about easy charm. She could bluff everything from being able to stay out late to a member of staff turning a blind eye when she was caught smoking to a little bag of weed for one of her fellow residents. She knew how peoples minds worked, which served her well when she decided to travel to America to get her psychology degree.
Clara is always studying for a degree, though what it's in changes very often. This is no joke either: she really does study for these degrees however never can find one to catch her interest. She moved from university to university, accommodation to slightly worse accommodation until she ended up moving her expensive wardrobe her bmw and her diamonds to the dreamland Motel. Somehow they haven't been stolen yet.
Minor Notes:
- Keeps a large dog in the motel
- This is not her real name
RP Sample: I think you know me from party house
DO NOT REMOVE: Welcome to DreamLand

Clara is interesting, though Retch is already known enough to be the hotel manager. If Clara tried to describe herself as the manager, the ruse wouldn't work. That's the only flaw I have with the app.

Retch is the owner, she's the 'mannager' or 'assistant manager' when she needs to be. She shows up when hyour tv has stopped working.

Retch may be the owner, but he's also the manager, also.

Seeing as she's pretty much the "I'll get you what you need" person, maybe Clara could be in charge of stock-taking or something along those lines? It'd certainly save Retch a bit of hassle when it comes to making plenty of orders if something else needs his attention and it'd save Stewart any trouble of ordering parts for any odd jobs he has to do (and not just because of his accent). Just a suggestion, is all.
