Civil War RP
I’ve noticed that there are no historical fiction RP’s going on right now, so I’ve decided to make one.
You can either be a solider, nurse, slave, spy, or a drummer. The RP will start before the war starts and continue into and possibly to the end of the war. If you would like to join please fill out the form below. Two characters is the limit per person.

My character:
Name: Lydia Trumbel
Age: 15
Job/position: Nurse for the Union
Personality: Very hard working, she loves any books she can get a hold of, she is a bit temperamental at times ( she kinda has a Hermione type personality), she is very smart. She had a future as a teacher, she was planing to be one, but then the war came on and she decided to help the wounded instead.
Appearance: Very long legs which make her a fast runner, dirty-blonde hair always hanging loosely at her shoulders, deep green eyes that almost reflect like water, she wears teh typical nurse uniform, she has a dusting of freckles on her face.
Background: She comes from South Carolina. Her Dad is a doctor, her Mom died giving birth to her brother Elijah, and her older brother August is fighting in the war for the Union. She comes from a middle class family.
Other: None right now...

Just a quick question: if Lydia came from South Carolina, a confederate state, then why is she a nurse for the union?
(February 14, 2016 - 1:45 pm)
She could support the Union even if she's from the South.

Thanks, Isabelle. That's what I was thinking, I wrote she is from the South which also means she could be living somewhere else. I haven't decided yet...
