To be honest. Maybe make a basic list of the characters you want. And then link those lists you found and we can pick if we want to add a new character. Then you can describe the three dorm lives. One can be a party dorm etc. And keep the dorms balanced. And then people can pick roommates for their dorms.

I like them. I like that a lot. I like the party and studious type dorms. I don't mind the extracurricular dorm but also I'm like, huh. Maybe the third dorm can be...I'm not sure. Extracurricular is a good option but I'm just thinking there is one we can also do that would be a good dynamic that throws both dorms for a loop.

Maybe the third dorm can be a 'all the rest' dorm. For the kids who aren't with their party or frat friends in the party dorm or in the honors roll/dean's list/honors housing groups like the study dorm. But the dorm itself is a group of people who don't have friend/pre-selected roommates (so most of them are rooming with someone THEY NEVER KNEW) and who mostly are randos on campus. But in the weird competition they are REALLY GOOD at making themselves known as a dorm. But you wouldn't be able to easily pick them out of the campus if they walked by. They kinda are normals. And like it can be where the drama is kinda too.
Like the broken up couple? He or she started dating their ex's former roommate, so the other person moved into a new room with a rando.

Yooo so I was at work today to drop something off to my kiddo who moved units. And another kid comes up to me and screams: "NO. NO. Miss J is here and will eat all our cereal."
I'm really bad at eating the leftover breakfast cereal. It's not like the kids eat them. But they see me eating their cocoa puffs and get mad at me.

Only to the little kids. In the big kids building I'm known as the staff that tells them the effing truth. I once told a kid to not get in a fight. And he said "why the eff not. He's po'ing me" and I stared 6'2" star basketball player in the eye and said: "I'm 5'1 and working with uselessness, if you get in a fight I am NOT restraining you and also I'd rather not get hit today. So NO."
He didnt. I'm known as the sooth sayer to the staff but really I just tell them to stop being idiots.

sweeeeeeeeeeeet lil blurbs + dorm names and drama should we only have inter-dorm drama or some intra-dorm too? like the overachiever + scholarship kid have a rivalry going on and should the cheating s/o be from the party dorm?

Post by shades on Feb 16, 2019 22:06:32 GMT -5
Yes. Inter-dorm and intr-dorm. Yes. Yes. The cheater and his/her current boo should be in the party palace
Basically it should be within reason but anything goes

literacy: literate / lazylit inspiration: college yo // gossip girl status: open | | accepting
Hey guys! Welcome back to another semester at East Lawrence University in NYC!
✩ ━━ rules ✩ 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. ✩ 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. ✩ activity . I'm a university student, I totally understand being busy. That being said, please try to get a post up at least once a week so we can keep the plot moving. Even just to chatting is fine, 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, ✩ 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. ✩ courtesy . Fighting outside of roleplay will not be tolerated. You don't have to like everyone but at least tolerate each other. ✩ 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. ✩ 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, main characters should be between the ages of 19 - 24. Keep the main characters true to their title, please. You may have a maximum of 2 characters. ✩ 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.
The Overachiever: - Holds a long-standing rivalry with The Charity Case, each constantly trying to outdo one another come exam season. It is a friendly rivalry (or so it seems) that stems back from middle school. - In charge of helping The Foreigner adjust to the new country
The Premed Student: - Problem with The Hot Mess, constantly stealing their study spot (but not to study ofc) - Will fight dorm 2 bc they throw LOUD AF parties on WEEKDAY nights. WEEKDAY. I need to study yo
The Loner - Managed to tick off the entirety of dorm 2 after a misunderstanding about a write-up. RIP - Semi-befriended The Runaway - bonded over their shared dislike for dorm 2
The Charity Case - Secretly tutoring The Hot Mess - H8s The Trust Fund Baby but BFFLs with The Premed Student
The Party Animal - Stole The Runaway's s/o last semester, and they're still going strong to this day - Constantly stringing The Wannabe along and teasing them about being "in"
The Jock - Cheated on The Runaway with The Party Animal last semester, and ended up together - Has been unfortunately paired with The Loner for a semester-long group project
The Trust Fund Baby - Never lets The Charity Case forget that their scholarships come their their Pop's grant donation - Invited to move into dorm 2 after The Runaway left last semester
The Hot Mess - Tutored by The Charity Case - On academic probation, if they don't get their grades up this semester they're getting kicked out
The Residence Assistant - Though not in the same dorm, constantly trying to get The Loner to go to dorm and school events. Why? Who knows???? - Tryna keep their rag-tag group of kids together and make new friends but no one (except The Foreigner) seems at all interested
The Foreigner - American culture is confusing - constantly following around The Residence Assistant much to the dismay of the Overachiever
The Wannabe - Wannabe cool kid. Constantly giving information to dorm 2 in hopes of getting "in." - Rules? Those are for squares. Constantly going out after hours, bringing guests over during quiet time - The Wannabe is the bane of The Residence Assistant's existence
The Runaway - Left dorm 2 after their partner (The Jock) cheated on them with their roommate at the time (The Party Animal). It's kinda hard to move on when they keep flaunting their new relationship all over campus
