    STORY INFORMATION
    Story Ideas:
    • TBA

    Character Bios:
    Chase Parks: Chase is your everyday average guy. Or at least he was until he graduated college. Chase started out in the biz, by doing small commercials. Regular hair gel ads, along with men's body spray. That kind of stuff. As time went on, Chase's role in Hollywood became more known. He started getting roles in fan favorite t.v. shows. Like, "Adolescent Vampire," and "The Werewolf Journals."

    For Chase, everything seemed to be going great. That is until he got a email. The email contained various things about Chase. Varying in white lies about himself, to absurd truths. From that day, Chase had been trying to get in contact with the person. He sent numerous emails to the person, hoping to get a reply, but nothing.

    Roughly four months later, the person responded. The instructions were simple, "Do as I say, and your secret(s) are safe."

    Who was Chase to disagree?


    Lilah Jones: Lilah is new to the hollywood scene. She isn't one for drama, and she tries her best to keep to herself. She recently opened her own boutique, "Adorn." For the longest time, Lilah had always been a designer. Ranging in various items.

    One day, while Lilah was working, a shipment came in. She opened the box and saw different colors of fabric. Seems normal, right? As she removed the cloth, photos were slowly revealed to her.

    Lilah had done somethings in her past that she wasn't proud of. Things she thought had gone away. But the photos showed that her problems had resurface. Lilah examened the box, curious to see if there were any extra clues, revealing the blackmailer. She found nothing.

    Lilah could only hope the secrets would stay in the dark. If they ever were to, come to light, her life would be over...


    Mason Roberts: The second that Mason Roberts turned six, his mother had him enrolled in singing classes to nurture the voice that she promised would make him his fortune. Nineteen years, two failed marriages and one child later, Mason was at the top of his game. Girls were literally swooning at his feet as he sang his way to the top of the charts. After he celebrated his first Billboard number one album, the world was literally his oyster.

    However, someone out there didn’t think that Mason deserved the fame he had. After nearly a year of anonymous messages containing rumours – some fake and some true – about him, Mason is determined to find out who is hell-bent on destroying his career. The messages state that if he doesn’t keep quiet about the whole thing, the whole world will find out about a side of Mason Roberts that they don’t want to know.

    And for now, that threat keeps him at bay.


    Noelle Harding: Noelle had been nothing but a pretty face with a passion for sports until she had left high school with grades that barely saw her scraping by in the academic subjects. Swimming was once a hobby, but when the blonde found herself competing more and more in localcompetitions, it only seemed natural to see how far she could get.

    After a successful run at the Olympics that saw her win a silver medal for her country, swimming was less of a passion and more of a career. What Noelle didn’t bank on was the negative attention she would receive. As a natural recluse, the thought of someone knowing about her most intimate secrets was her idea of a living hell, but someone seemed to know and continued to make her aware of that fact. She agreed with anything that the blackmailer ordered, including staying quiet about the whole ordeal.

    But when someone else comes to Noelle with the exact same problem, she begins to think that it isn’t just her career that this person wants to destroy. It’s the entire glitz and glam lifestyle.

    I think my character is going to be called Audrey Lucas. I'm thinking she'll either be a model or an actress.

    Okay.

    @ house of cards.
    And if it's alright with you both, I'd like for us to each have one guy and girl, just so that things can be even. Cute Once you guys have your bios you can PM them to me, and I'll add them to the list.

    Sounds good to me! I'll get onto my character bios as soon as I've worked my way through my to-do list for on here, which shouldn't take me too long!

    An idea just came to me. How about, instead of having the character's blackmail each other, it would just be one person whom we all write for? We can say like, he/she met each character at some place where they all frequent, and wants something from each of them.

    I like that, yeah. Sort of like a Gossip Girl-esque idea? It'll make things less confusing in the long run as well.

    Okay, should the blackmailer be male or female? And should we make it one of the main characters? To make it more dramatic? If so, I think we should come up with a nickname for that person. Just so it's not obvious xD

    As far as I'm aware (this is my late-night documentary knowledge making an appearance tehe) most blackmailers are female, but don't quote me on that. Either way, I think that having the blackmailer a female would be quite apt, because maybe the blackmailer is slightly jealous of the main characters, which would be more of a feminine thing to do anyway.

    Honestly, I'm fine with the blackmailer being either one of the main characters or a separate character. I think that it'd be easier to have a different character though, just so we don't mess up someone else's chracterisation if we were to try and write them. Think

    @ house of cards.

    On the flip side, from watching a million documentaries plus the show, I have observed that most stalkers are male, so I think either gender could be a contender.

    I also am fine with it being either a main character or a separate character, but I think having a separate character would make the story less predictable. Like "I think it's that character!" Nope, it's actually the waiter at this obscure diner everyone went to once. Ya know?

    Also, sorry if I don't respond so quickly! We're working on college essays, so a lot of my time is going into that rn.

    No worries!
    @ house of cards.
    And okay! So we'll have it be a different character.

    I like the thought of the blackmailer being jealous. But, also the idea of it being a guy. Given the fact, like house of cards. said, girls are more known to be jealous. If it's a guy blackmailer, who's jealous, it be a little uncommon, ya know?

    What do you guys think?

    That's actually a good point. A jealous guy would be the last thing anyone would be expecting and maybe it would make everything that little bit more unpredictable.

    I totally get that, I've started back at university this week so my schedule is a bit chaotic in terms of trying to get everything done!

    It also might be more unexpected if it's more than one person. Like a couple who's obsessed with our characters or something like that.
