Welcome to the Upper East Side, home to New York City's filthiest of rich. Only the most elite and wealthiest of socialites call this corner of east Manhattan home. Notorious for their lavish lifestyles and endless luxuries, the UES is the playground for the children of Manhattan's richest and most influential families. Drama seems to follow our young socialites, from high school now on to bigger and better things.
East Lawrence University is a prestigious private school located in the UES. ELU alumni go on to become famous specialists in their fields of study, run for political office, and run Fortune 500 companies. It's no surprise the children of the EUS went on to study at ELU. But studying is the least of their worries. From Charity Balls to the Met Gala to nights out on the town, our young twenty-somethings are always on the move. Don't blink or you'll miss it.
xoxo

β ββ rules β forum rules . Obviously, just follow all of the official forum rules. They're pretty all-encompassing and as such I will keep the following rules short and sweet. β literacy . This is a literate/lazylit roleplay. This means I expect, at the very minimum, good grammar, solid spelling, and decent sentence structure. I'm definitely an advocate for quality over quantity, so I'm reluctant to put a minimum post length requirement, however please, no one liners. Make sure to give the others something to work with. β activity . I'm a university student, I totally understand being busy. That being said, please pop in about once a week, even just to chat, so I know you're still interested and not just bailing. If you find this roleplay isn't piquing your interest anymore, just let me know so I can open your spot up to others. No hard feelings, β post content . Keep it Pg-13. Skip is your friend. No godmodding, powerplaying yadda yadda. Please refrain from using very bright colours/difficult to read fonts/extremely large or small font sizes for roleplay posts. β courtesy . Fighting outside of roleplay will not be tolerated. You don't have to like everyone but at least tolerate each other. β spam . No excessive posting by non-members [ friends are the exception to the rule ]; no advertising by non-members. Chatting and plotting are encouraged between members. β characters . I know this type of roleplay lends itself to making "perfect" characters, but please, refrain from doing so. I have the right to refuse acceptance if I deem your character too "sue-ish." Similarly, characters should be between the ages of 19 - 24 [ exceptions may be made, but ask permission via PM first ]. Keep the main characters true to their title, please. You may have a maximum of 4 characters [ for now, this may change ], and only two from the "main cast" [ one male and one female ]. I'm very open to adding more character roles. If you don't see one that strikes your fancy, just ask and we can probably work something out. β joining . Post only once on the profile page, using the given form. I will review your form and let you know my decision on this page. Any role without specific info filled in is still available, and I will frequently be updating this page. PM me any reserves. Please add xoxo somewhere in your character profile so I know you've read the rules.

The New Girl has made an instant enemy of The Queen Bee because her father wronged QB's family in some way...to make matters worse, NG and The Golden Boy, QB's longtime love have some sparks flying between them. But in true to form fashion, the QB has made NG part of the inner circle, you know what they say, keep your friends close and your enemies closer.
The Dark Horse has recently discovered The Fauxcilite isn't all she claims to be, in hopes of advancing his status and climbing up the Upper East Side hierarchy DH has blackmailed F into being his new girlfriend.
The Hot Shot and The Casanova have been bffs as long as anyone can remember but what happens when HS's ex and C's long time secret crush The Party Girl returns to town after a scandalous summer away and the two buds are forced into romantic rivalry?
The Mogul and The Chameleon are practically family given how close they are, but with recent trouble in The Queen Bee's kingdom M convinces a reluctant C to fake a romance so they can topple QB once and for all and take over to run UES how they see fit.
Good news Upper East Siders! It's time for the wedding of the century! Everyone around town is thrilled about the new couple and their whirlwind romance...except for their children of course, The Scholar and The Troublemaker are oil and water, can they figure out how to live together?
The Activist quietly returned from a supposedly uninteresting summer abroad. No one is happier than her on-again, off-again, currently on-again boyfriend, The Troublemaker. She'll just keep her summer fling with The Wildcard a secret. What happens in France, stays in France, right? Right, but it seems WC has other plans. Spotted, the WC, boarding a direct flight to NYC. Uh-oh, A.

Good evening Upper East Siders! It looks like our scandalous socialites are up to something. Spotted this morning at Grand Central Station, PG, returning home after an eventful summer away from the UES. True to PG's style, the fantastic fourteen have thrown a welcome back party at NYC's hottest new nightclub. Everyone who is anyone will be there. It should be a fun, clean night of reuniting friends. Should be, but drama always somehow manages to rear its entertaining head. Stay tuned for any juicy stories.
xoxo

kody richard forte Β Β Time: 9:02 pm Β Β Β Β Location: Element Nightclub, on the corner of 6th ave. and 42nd st. Β Β Β Β With: anyone, hop in ~ c:
Β Β Β Β They say the city never sleeps, and this couldnβt be more true for the citiest city of them all. Despite the late evening hour, the NYC streets were still lined with streaks of yellow taxis paused at traffic lights, buskers and their instruments, and pedestrians returning home, meandering about, or heading out to get a taste of the world-famous nightlife the city has to offer. While one half of the city shuts down, another opens up. While the older generation sleeps, the young twenty-somethings come out to play, and tonight their playground was at the corner of 6th avenue and 42nd street.
Β Β Β Β Parting the sea of brakelights, a sleek limousine pulled up to the corner of 6th avenue and 42nd street in front of a rather inconspicuous looking storefront. The white-gloved hand of the driver pulled open the limousine's black door, revealing a blond, curly haired boy with distinctive dark blue eyes. Kody Richard Forte emerged from from the luxurious interior of his limo, looking as casual as you would ever see him in a silky patterned shirt tucked immaculately into pressed black pants. The top few buttons were strategically left unbuttoned, βto prepare for the heat of the packed nightclub.β Tailored to his exact proportions (as was his entire wardrobe), his clothes, likely more expensive than the average personβs monthly rent, fit like a glove.
Β Β Β Β A nod in thanks was directed at his driver before the male closed the distance between himself and the doors of the club. The dull pounding of loud music heard on the street was amplified tenfold once inside. Despite itβs rather plain looking exterior, Element Nightclub boasted its placement as NYCβs Hottest New Nightclub. Flashing strobe lights, a pounding beat, a dance floor brimming with young socialites looking to let loose--it wasnβt hard to see why the hardcore clubbers loved this place. Kody himself was not much a fan of clubbing--the strobe lights were too bright and the music was too loud. But as they say: When in Rome, do as the Romans do.
Β Β Β Β So he did. To an extent.
Β Β Β Β A drink later, and another in hand, the male made his way to the back of the crowded dance floor. Past the wild dancers, past the DJ booth, past the bar, he finally reached the darkened booths the housed the couples that needed to sneak away for a moment alone or the drunkards who had passed out on the velvet sofas. The group had rented out a private booth away from the others as to have a place to meetup if things got too out of hand, or if perhaps you wished to talk without screaming above the earsplitting music. While they certainly couldβve rented out the whole club if they so desired, heaven knows money was no object for these spoiled rich kids, it seemed cruel to take away a Friday night from the poorer plebs that frequented Element Nightclub. Drunken Friday nights were likely the only joy they got in their mundane lives. Who were they to heartlessly take that away? Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β They were Manhattan's most elite, and heartless was their middle name. But I digress.
Β Β Β Β Separated from the rest of the booths by a heavy curtain, Kody back the curtain to see who had arrived. It was a bit early, but surely he wasnβt the first to arrive?
