Welcome to the Stranger Things roleplay! Forgive me for the simple nature of this introduction. I don't have much ability at the moment to finish it as I am mobile. But it will improve so bear with me!
Stranger Things
In a small town called Hawkins there is hardly ever any excitement. Everyone knows everyone. The most exciting thing that happened was an owl attacking a local because it thought her hair was a nest.
Until the night of November 6, 1983 when 12-year-old Will Byers vanishes mysteriously after spending a day playing a Dungeons and Dragon's campaign. Will's frantic mother, Joyce, searches for him while Police Chief Jim Hopper launches his own investigation around the town and in the heart of its best kept secret: Hawkins Lab. Meanwhile Will's friends Dustin, Mike and Lucas discover a psychokinetic girl named Eleven during their own investigation. She claims to know Will's location and agrees to help them in their search. As they uncover the truth, a sinister government agency tries to cover it up, while a more insidious force lurks below the surface. A creature is haunting the sleepy town of Hawkins. Witnesses claim it can crawl out of walls. It is said to have no face but a hideous mouth that opens out of the faceless head. It resides in and opens portals to a parallel universe called the Upsidedown, a world exactly like ours but cold, dark, empty and hopeless. Once trapped...you may never return.
The Hawkins Lab is running secret experiments on children, testing their ability to give them powers. Telekinesis is one of their specialities. No one on the outside knows about these secret operations and they hide it well, covering their tracks in any way they can...even at the expense of those who get in their way. Triplets went missing recently and some people speculate the lab has them...
THE MONSTER
the monster is called Demogorgon. Not much is known about it other than it feeds on blood and steals people, taking them to its dimension called The Upsidedown. It messes with the electromagnetic force. An air of mystery surrounds this creature. If the lights flicker....RUN!
Roleplay:
People are disappearing. The numbers are slowly increasing. Members of the community, teachers, kids, parents...
Where could they be going? What's going on? It's up to your and your characters to make this adventure and solve this mystery. You can be a parent/adult, college age, high school age or middle school age. You can be a teacher, cop, etc.
You can make an OC OR if you know the show's characters well you can roleplay one of them. First come first serve. You may have as many charries as you can manage.
I'd like for OCs to be heavily involved not just the characters from the show.
There are triplets that are the powered charries experimented on by the lab. Only the triplets and Eleven may have powers.

Name: Joshua Ashley
Age: 17
Role: Popular
Description: Josh is of average height, standing at about five-foot-nine, though he's bulky enough (just bulky, not exactly fat) to make him look shorter. He has short blonde-brown hair that curls at the ends, but ends up falling flat in the humidity most of the time. His eyes are plain old brown, but warm with nice lashes. He has good bone structure too, other than his nose being just a bit more than crooked from being broken one too many times during his childhood, and, well, recently as well.

Name: Isabella 'Bella' Hastings
Age: 17
Role: Nerd
Description: Isabella is short for her age and petite. She has long wavy dark brown hair with a slight reddish tint along with dark brown eyes. Her skin is rather fair, nearing pale, and her cheeks often redden for not given reason.
Personality: Isabella is some what shy unless she spies someone she thinks she could have a kind and trustworthy friendship with. Other then that she usually keeps to herself, hardly ever questioning anthing. She's always kind to others though, no matter what, and she tries to be as helpful as she possibly can to others.

Name: Shane Wolf
Age: 18
Role: Pretty popular
Description: He is a very tall guy standing at just over seven feet tall. His body is skinny, so he's a rather lanky dude, but also pretty well built. His hair is shaggy and black and is a few inches long with bangs that just barely reach into his blue-gray eyes. He can be considered handsome. He always wears a black hoodie, jeans, sneakers, a chain necklace with a cross, and black fingerless gloves.
Personality: Basically, he's the kind of guy to use his height to his advantage for intimidation. He stands up for others, is kind, and even rather gentle. However, he practices combat, so he's he will not be afraid to fight hand to hand, though, this can get him into trouble at school or with the wrong people. He's very protective of those he cares about and tries to do the right thing.
Backstory: He's a simple high school senior who always hated being as popular as he is. However, his father was a bit of a nut and believed the government was conspiring against them, so Shane was forced to learn outdoor survival and take karate and boxing lessons, as well as proper ways to use a knife, gun, and bow. After the death of his father earlier this year, he now has to take care of his little sister on his own, as well as do well in school. Their mother died a long time ago.
Other: Shane's just a semi-normal dude :3

Age: 13
Role: outcast in middle school.
Description: She is a small girl, skinny and standing at only 4 feet 3 inches tall, but she still has growing to do. Her face is rather round, and she has long and curly strawberry blonde hair, taking after her mother. Her eyes are a blue-gray, and her skin is rather pale with freckles dotting here and there. She likes wearing jeans and t-shirts with sneakers and a cross necklace her parents had given her.
Personality: She acts younger than her age and relies on her brother a lot, but at the same time can very stubborn and independent. She's not easily scared, which can get her into stupid situations, but she's learning to fight, too. She loves her older brother more than anything and trusts him above anyone else. For now, she loves being creepy and scaring others, but also is still kind, even though her temper can flare up quite easily, as well.
Backstory: However, her father was a bit of a nut and believed the government was conspiring against them, so Kayla was forced to learn outdoor survival and take karate lessons, as well as proper ways to use a knife, gun, and bow. After the death of her father earlier this year, she now has to live with her brother, which isn't so bad, but she struggles very much in school these days. Their mother died a long time ago, but because of the death of both parents, she suffers from depression and sometimes gets anxiety attacks.
Other: She's a semi-normal girl :3

Rules:
*Abide by ALL FORUM RULES especially the restrictions on violence, language and romance.
*please be active. If you plan on missing a lot of time please warn your fellow players.
For instance I WORK MON-FRI 7am-3pm FORUM TIME and am usually busy Saturdays maybe available in intervals.
*this roleplay is to be in third person perspective (i.e. names and pronouns such as 'Jane/she' instead of 'I').
*full sentence structure required (i.e. "Jane sat down" vs "Jane: *sits down*''.) Any questions please ask. I'm okay if you don't type a paragraph but please make it a post that is easy to build on and engages other players.
*if you have not yet seen Stranger Things you could ask us what's a part of it or what's going on. Or you could research it either by reading about it or watching it. If you HAVE seen ST warn of spoilers if you are going to do so or ask where everyone else is. I've finished the series so no worries here
*NO GODMODDING. If you are one of the few who get to be a powered character (more on that after this) you shall not be invincible. If you know the show you know Eleven got weak and sometimes passed out after using a lot of energy for her powers. If I deem it necessary I will ask you to fix it or you may leave. Sorry. It just isn't fair.
*There will only be three powered players at the beginning for the sake of control and clarity. You must ask to be a powered character and I'd prefer you be quite active as you'd be an important part of the storyline.
*don't control others' characters
*BE RESPECTFUL OF ALL PLAYERS
*have fun! I'm super excited for this roleplay and can't wait to get to know some of you (:
