So the idea behind this rp is that several groups of friends decided to rent a condo in the mountains for a weekend. On the day they're supposed to leave, a massive snowstorm hits and all the roads are closed until the snow can be cleared. Drifts over 8 feet have piled up in places and the snow is an average of about 4 feet deep.
Luckily there is a general store not too far down the road from the condos along with a few other shops. There are four condos in one unit that all share the same courtyard entry. Each Condo has been rented out by different groups (i.e. the people in condo 1 don't know the people in condo 2, etc). Perhaps romance will blossom or drama will unfold, who knows when you're stuck in the snow? (Try not to cringe too much at the cheesey-ness of that sentence xD)
Rules Please post at least 2-3 sentences. Forum rules
Joining: This is pretty informal, so don't feel like you need a huge joining form or anything. Maybe just a brief description of your character along with which condo you want them to be part of. I'd prefer to keep it college-age and up.

Characters Adam JensingAdam is a tall 22 year old. It is a medium length hair is platinum blonde and he either messily spikes it or leaves it in its usual mussed up state. Normally Adam wears glasses. The frames are plain black on the outside, but the inside is a slightly transparent light blue that is similar to the color of his eyes. Though he is somewhat muscular, Adam doesnβt have incredibly broad shoulders. He is a bit of a string bean in terms of his proportions, with a long torso, and long arms and legs. Nikki EricksonNikki, 20, has golden brown hair that hangs down to the middle of her back when let down, but it is usually in a braid. Her eyes are an enchanting blue/green. Standing at a height of 5β3,ββ Nikki has an athletic build, though she doesnβt participate in the typical sports you might think of. For example, she is on the ultimate frisbee team, as well as the climbing team (which is how she knows Adam), but those are the only organized sport she is part of. The rest are more individual activities. In one word, Nikki is determined. Though her older brothers would probably substitute stubborn or difficult. Tiffany WattsTiffany is 21 and is always full of energy. She has dirty blonde hair that is almost always kept in a pony tail or messy bun. Her eyes are hazel and she has a light dusting of freckles across her nose. Tiffany is a bit taller than average at around 5'7''. She has a runner's build and actually does enjoy running. Matthew ConwayMatthew, 21, is on the quieter side. He has green eyes and light brown hair usually styled such that it is lifted up and away from his face. He is slightly shorter than average at around 5'8'' but he doesn't let that bother him (usually). He is also not the most athletic person in the world (primarily due to focusing on school), so he's not particularly well-muscled. That's not to say he's incapable of outdoor activities, however; he does enjoy hiking and skiing. Mika Cyance - 24 - A 5'8" man with dark, freckled skin and shoulder-length black hair. In cold weather like this, he's likely bundled up under extra sweaters and coats and probably a blanket or two. He's not super social, but he does his best to be nice if someone engages him in an interaction. He's mostly focused on reading or writing in the books he totes around with him. Honestly he's fairly gullible when it comes to practical jokes and lies, but once he falls for something and is made a fool of, he won't forget it. Tacia Wills - 27 - A 5'4" Finnish woman with pale features and long hair. She invests the primary focus of her energies into MMOs and online games, so she's hardly social until the wifi cuts out. She probably doesn't even notice the drop in temperature or the storm considering her computer requires cold temperatures to operate at peak condition... Tacia is an intensely private woman who doesn't care to give many details about herself, but once you've drawn her attention (for better or worse) she will be incredibly nosy. Damien Fischbach Damien is a tall 22 year old man with dark brown hair. He measures in at about 5β10β He is very formal, usually wearing a suit. His eyes are a honey brown color. Damien is a polite and caring individual. He is soft spoken and a bit shy. He hates arguing, but he will defend his opinion if he had too. He is also very intelligent, and tends to think things through before acting. Josephina "Josie" LopezJosie is a small girl of 20 years, barely reaching 5'3 in height. She has a curvy frame and a round face. Her skin is a deep shade of olive. Her eyes are alluringly smoky black, and she has sleek, curly black hair that reaches her shoulder blades. While Josie isn't a great beauty, she isn't plain either. She just happens to be average. Josie comes from a wealthy family, so many of her outfits are quite nice. Generally she sticks to a casual chic look and a nice pair of heeled boots. Josie has a loud personality. She's cheerful, optimistic, and extroverted. She has a huge heart and is happy to provide comfort for anyone who needs it. However, Josie isn't the sharpest knife in the drawer, and often overlooks logic. She firmly believes that everyone is inherently good, which has led her to be too trusting. Still, her bubbly personality is enough to get people on her side.

(Haha sorry, I was talking to ValkoinenLeuka) (I put your character in a condo though so we can start!)
Adam walked out into the snow piled outside the door to the condo. He waded out to where the snow came up to his knees. The courtyard was slightly sheltered so the snow wasnβt as deep as it was in other places. βCan you believe this?β He said to Nikki who had appeared at the door behind him. He kicked some snow around, grinning. βPretty crazy,β Nikki agreed, leaning against the door frame.
Matthew was sat in front of the television watching the news and despairing slightly over the fact that he would be missing classes for the next few days. He stood and walked to the window and watched the snow fall. It had been a long time since heβd seen that much snow and though he was worried about missing class, he was also excited about the snow.
Tiffany bounced down the stairs still wearing her pajamas and practically ran to the door. Being from somewhere that hardly ever saw snow, she was amazed to see so much snow in one place. When she opened the door, some snow that had drifted against the door fell onto Tiffanyβs bare feet and she stepped back with a squeal. βWow!β she said under her breath , looking out at the snow-covered courtyard.

Josie was seated by the fireplace with a mug of coffee in her hands. She was still in her pajamas, curled up in a fuzzy blanket by the fireplace. At the sound of Tiffany's excited squeal, she set down the mug on the coffee table and raced over to the door to see what was going on. She remembered that a blizzard had been forecasted the other day. Was this it? Her bare feet pounded against the cold floor, and she arrived in time to see Tiffany step back from the door as some rogue flakes drifted through the opened entrance.
Josie let out a delighted gasp as she sighted the front lawn. The snow had piled up feet high. Two or three, maybe. She grinned with excitement and nudged Tiffany. "Isn't this amazing?" Being from the northeast, Josie had seen plenty of blizzards throughout her twenty years, but there was something particularly enticing about this one. Something prodded the back of her brain, something dire. But she pushed it aside in favor of just enjoying the moment.

(Woah that's cool I didn't know you could do that with your profile pic) "Definitely!" Tiffany replied, with a grin, poking at the snow with her toe. There was someone else out in the courtyard who waved when he saw Tiffany and Josie before heading back inside. "I'm going to go out. Want to come?" Tiffany asked as she closed the door and started toward the stairs so she could change.

Mika's reading was interrupted by a loud outburst from one of the rooms. He already could tell it was Tacia... She was the only other person here at the moment. He looked up quietly to see her storming out of her room with her laptop in her hands. "The wifi dropped! I was in a raid! My entire instance is gone, all the loot I didn't grab, the exp! It's unclaimed!" She complained loudly.
Mika sighed quietly and gestured with one hand to the window. "We're lucky the power isn't out. There's a storm right now."
Tacia let out an irritated groan and closed the laptop. "I don't know why I expected the mountains to be able to hold decent connection anyway." She set it down on the counter and she grabbed a cup from the cabinet and filled it with water from the tap. "How long's the storm been going on? All today?"
Mika nodded. "Pretty much. Were you up all night?"
"Yeah why?" Tacia asked.
"It shows." Mika replied quietly, pointing to his eyes. "Your eyes are really red. Do you want to take a nap?"
"No, I'm going to ask if the other condos have wifi." She took a sip of water, grinning at the disapproving look Mika gave her. "I'm kidding. I'm gonna take a rest for a bit I guess we should check what everyone else is doing for the storm when I get up?"

Josie smiled. βYou know I do.β She followed Tiffany up the stairs and headed to her room. She relieved herself of her pajamas and threw on a thick sweater-shirt and insulated leggings. Then she put on a coat and her snow-boots. She finished the look with a beanie hat, some mittens, and a scarf. When she was done changing, Josie hurried downstairs and leaned against the now-shut front door to wait for Tiffany. Josie couldnβt stop an excited grin from spreading across her face. She couldnβt wait to get outside; already sweat was starting to bead on her forehead.

I.C Damien walked out of his room, βGood morning, Matthew.β He greeted with a slight dip of his head. The man was wearing his suit, as usual, but his blue tie was loose around his neck. He knew his friend would be anxious about the fact that he would miss his classes, but he said nothing as stood next to Matthew.

(This one is for both Val (is it ok if I call you that?) and Candy Apple) Tiffany clattered down the stairs to join Josie. "Dang it, Josie, why do you always look so darn cute?" she complained, though in a teasing tone. She'd put on a full suit of snow gear: waterproof snow pants, boots, and jacket. With that, she pulled the door open and stumbled out into the snow. She tramped through the snow in a circle, giggling to herself the whole time. "Hey, why don't we see if any of our neighbors want to organize a snowball fight or something. We're all stuck here. Might as well get to know each other." Without waiting a response, she waded over to the door of condo 4 and knocked.
"Hey, Damien," Matthew replied. Matthew thought he dressed well until he'd met Damien. Damien's attire made Matthew's pullover sweaters look rather plain. While they were looking out the window, two girls emerged from one of the other condos. Matthew turned to Damien. "Well, what do you want to do since were stuck here?" He asked, glancing back outside and trying to think if they had any board games or anything.

(Val or Valk, whichever you like)
Mika heard the knock and closed his book. "Looks like the others beat you to it." He mumbled to Tacia, getting up to answer the door. He paused a moment as he tried to put a name to the face, and he offered a smile. "Hey. It was... Jennifer...?"
Tacia looked over from where she was still propped up against the kitchen counter and she called out across the condo to correct him. "Tiffany!"
Whoops... Mika dipped his head quickly in apology. "Sorry, Tiffany. What's going on?"

βYou look much better than me!β Josie responded cheerfully. She eagerly followed Tiffany outside, being careful to shut the door behind her. She shivered as she took a step forward and sank thigh-deep into the powdery snow. The bitter wetness penetrated her boots instantly, making her toes go numb. But in her excitement, she hardly noticed, instead practically waltzing over to her friend.
βYes, that is a great idea!β Josie chimed in, looking after Tiffany as the other girl knocked on another door. She bounced on her toes enthusiastically, watching but saying nothing. It suddenly occurred to her that they might be stuck here. For days longer than planned. Her excitement faded brieflyβWeβre trapped in the middle of nowhere during a blizzard with no way to get home!βbut she shrugged and pushed the thought aside for the time being.
