A Bᴀᴋᴇʀ's Dᴏᴢᴇɴ
ᴊᴏɪɴɪɴɢ ᴘᴀɢᴇ . ᴍᴀɪɴ ᴘᴀɢᴇ . ᴄʜᴀʀᴀᴄᴛᴇʀ ᴘᴀɢᴇ
Introduction
Hey there! Welcome to A Baker's Dozen, a roleplay centered around a family with thirteen members; two parents and eleven children. While there is no reality tv show starring this family, they are a rather extraordinary family that face the typical daily challenges that come with eleven children and two parents. Running their own family bakery as well as juggling eleven kids can be quite a feat. This roleplay will dig a little deeper into their lifestyle and hopefully be a real blast to roleplay! Feel free to PM me any questions you might have involving this roleplay.
The level of roleplaying I ask is semi-advanced to advanced. Semi-advanced to advanced to me is when there is at least a paragraph or two of descriptive roleplay. Descriptive roleplay involves using the five senses to describe what is going on around your character. I like to roleplay with a minimum of two paragraphs.Rules Follow the Forum and Ghost Rules This is simple, respect and obey all of the forum and ghost rules.
Characters No perfect characters, godmodding, powerplaying, or anything of the sort. Godmodding makes your characters invincible to anything, including when they do anything wrong - they are not caught and punished for some reason they make up. Powerplaying is similar, changing facts after they've already been stated to make the roleplay go your own way at all times. In addition, please do not claim more than two characters since this is a small roleplay.
Activity If you know you're going to be out for a significant amount of time, please let us know. It helps when trying to generate and get a good flow going with roleplay, especially if you leave someone locked in with your character so they can no longer join in with the others. I don't expect you to be on every day but I'd like you to be on this roleplay for at least three days a week. I'm flexible with activity but as said before - let me know. After two weeks of inactivity you will be deleted.
Common Sense Use common sense. This sounds a bit of a blanket statement, but roleplays get deleted mainly because someone crossed over into something PG-13 that isn't allowed. If you have to think 'Hmm, maybe this is too dark?' you probably shouldn't post it.

description here, including (but not limited to): personality, basic appearance, quirks, various likes and dislikes, future goals, etc. more can be established through roleplay, so don't feel as if you need to list everything there is to know about them. a little enigma can add to the fun. write to your heart's desired length!

Maria sat on the couch in the living room, her back leaned against the arm, her legs stretched out in front of her, taking up far more of the couch than she should have been. She balanced a heavily battered, hand-me-down laptop she shared with multiple siblings on her slightly bent knees, flipping through a few of the pictures she'd recently transferred over from a camera and her phone. Her bare feet unconsciously moved through the point-and-flex dance stretch. Every few seconds, her eyes would flicker to the time and then around the room. It technically wasn't her time for the laptop, and she knew she'd have to willingly give it up if asked, but no one had come to claim it yet.
She finally finished looking through the new photos, and settled down to pick filters and do some minor editing. Hopefully no one would show up to interrupt her, but in a house as busy as the Bakers', she knew that wasn't that likely.
(Maria can be a cashier if not that many other people want their characters to be.)

@ patt : gotcha patt c;
@ LiliesoftheDawn : okie dokes! i'll put her down c: also if nobody else replies before i get my character finished i'll reply to your rp
@ brindleface & akali : if you like you can make one person! if you look at the list of the relatives above there are some that live in Brighton. but like you said, it could be a friend of one of the kids - maybe you can talk to someone else in the rp and see if they want to have their character's "best friend" roleplayed. or it could be a neighbor or something like that. cx it's a good idea! just run whatever kind of character you'd like to do past me first! ^^

{ Sure c: It's going to be pretty terrible, though ^-^' }
There was nothing in the fridge. Absolutely nothing. Zico had to settle for a little container of strawberry yogurt, which he begrudgingly tore the lid off of and went to get a spoon for. He'd just gotten home from work at this little Italian restaurant not far from home and today had been...well, terrible. But as a waiter, he supposed that rude customers were just something one had to deal with. He shouldn't really complain, the tips were still nice.
Nevertheless, as Zico licked yogurt off his spoon, leaning against the kitchen counter, he couldn't keep his mind from wandering towards frustrating and irritated thoughts. He needed to vent. He just hoped that Jackson didn't need their room for anything because he was planning on locking himself in there for an hour or two. Writing down his feelings and turning them into a song of sorts always seemed to help.

Maria climbed the stairs from her room in the basement lightly, feet barely skimming each step before she seemed to float into the kitchen. She brushed past Zico, not even seeming to be paying much attention to her surroundings before she came to a screeching halt in front of the snack cabinet. She pushed a few empty boxes around, then switched to the fridge, still empty handed.
"Where is everything? Have they not gone shopping yet?" she asked, turning back to look at Zico, a frown planted rather firmly on her face. "I really wanted something to eat, and I don't feel like cooking."

Zico watched as Maria came into the kitchen and he thought it was really creepy how she seemed to float instead of walk like normal people did. He rolled his eyes at her words, tossing the empty yogurt container into the trash and his spoon into the sink before responding. "I don't know. It's not my turn to shop. And cooking can't be that hard." He nodded towards the fridge. "Just like...get some vegetables and chop them up and put them in a pan or something." To be quite honest, Zico had never cooked (or even tried to) once in his life. "Or if worse comes to worst just order pizza."
