@Sammy, I corrected myself and said we were starting on the 13th, and this is a solo write, which means I write and use your character's. @Quill, you are not too late, welcome!

Oooooohhhhh. I'm used to different sayings. 'Solo write' sometimes means you could only write with your characters. Sorry about that (•~•)

Probably should catch up with the sayings. I guess that's what happens when you leave for a couple o' years  :’)

I think it was supposed to be more like a solo write than an RP, meaning Mahriel wrote the story and everyone else just submitted charries?

Luminescence is right, It's ok I know it was an honest mistake. :)

Here is my charrie sheet:

Name: Darien Green

Age: 28

Guest

Personality: Serious, very attentive to even the smallest detail, often acts like he has no emotions, but he actually does.

Appearance: Tall with dark black hair, very strong and athletic, wears a trench coat and bowler hat, has piercing black eyes.

Shipping: Yes.

Other: He is a well-known detective who is traveling here on a much-needed vacation.

 

Part 1, in which the guests arrive.

Darien walked into the hotel with his briefcase in one hand and his bag in the other. He strode confidently up to the front desk and took in the young lady sitting there and smiling politely up at him. She was young, about 21, petite with dark skin, hair and eyes. There were bags under her eyes, and from the fact that her hair was indented in a diamond shape, he guessed she also worked at a hospital.

            “I’m Evelyn, what can I help you with today?” She said, interrupting his thoughts. He smiled. 

            “I’m checking in, I have a reservation.” She nodded

            “Your name sir?” 

            “Darien Green” She paged through a book until she found his name.

            “You are in room 32, here is the key, breakfast is at eight every morning. Enjoy your stay!”

            Darien took the key and walked down the hall to his room. He unlocked the door to find a lovely room with a view of a waterfall. He set down his luggage and laid back, ready to enjoy his stay.

            

Elizabeth Morgan entered the hotel with a flourish, causing Evelyn to look up in surprise.

            “I have a reservation here under Elizabeth Morgan, give me the key to my room and make it snappy.” She said, looking down her nose at the disheveled Evelyn. Evelyn hurried to do as she asked, pulling out the key for room 59 and handing it to Elizabeth. The bellhop, Grey, hurried over to take Elizabeth’s bags and led her to her room. Elizabeth pushed open the door and began inspecting the room and complaining about its many flaws, leaving Gray to set her things down and hurry out.

            

Katherine Marianna Chestlerwood walked into the hotel with a smile on her face. The area was beautiful, and the hotel was too. She got her key from Evelyn and climbed up the stairs to room 106, with Grey trailing behind her. Once she got to her room she went out on the balcony and breathed in the smell of fresh air, listening to the majestic thundering of the waterfall and watching as drops of water flew through the air like so many diamonds. She knew she was going to like it here. She turned to Grey, who she had momentarily forgotten. 

            “You can set my things down on the bed, here’s a dollar for your troubles.” Grey took the money with big eyes. Guests rarely tipped her, and if they did, it was never a whole dollar.

            “Thank you ma’am, thank you very much.” She pocketed the money and left the room.

            

Centance quietly walked up to the desk 

            “I have a reservation, my name is Centance.” Evelyn paged through her book but couldn’t find anything under that name.

            “I’m afraid that there is no reservation for someone named Centance.” She said, looking rather annoyed due to utter exhaustion. Centance frowned

            “Is there one for James Mathew Blackburn III?” His father had made the reservation, and he insisted on calling his son by his given name. Evelyn quickly found it and handed him his key for room 145. Centance headed to his room and collapsed on his surprisingly soft bed. He turned on his bedside radio and Listened to Amos ‘n’ Andy, his favorite comedians.

            

            Princess Sonia VI of Staibadour walked through the doors of the hotel, followed close behind by Christopher. Grey hurried to help him with the mound of luggage, which was teetering in his arms, then escorted them to their rooms. They had called ahead and were expected at the hotel. Their rooms were to of the nicest in the hotel. They were on the third and highest floor, with king sized beds and the loveliest view. Rooms 306 and 307 were larger than the other rooms and had lovely and expensive artwork in them. 

            “These rooms are beautiful.” Sonia said, clasping her hands and taking in the bright colors and lovely designs that filled the rooms. There was a door between the rooms and their balconies were connected. Christopher was appreciating the strong locks on the doors, and the bullet-proof glass.

 

            Marie Claren walked into the hotel and stopped short, admiring the beautiful architecture and pricy artwork. She walked to the front desk and looked excitedly at the desk clerk 

            “Is that a Van Gogh?” She asked, pointing at one of the many paintings in the lobby. Evelyn shrugged. “I wouldn’t know, but if you give me your name I can check you in.” Marie nodded.

            “Oh, yes, of course, I’m Marie, Marie Claren.” She was handed the key for room 226 and she headed upstairs. She unlocked the door, threw down her luggage, grabbed her paints and easel, and started working on a painting of the waterfall outside. She felt somehow that this would be a masterpiece, after all, her father had sent her here because some of the most stunning views in all America could be found in the area around this hotel. 

 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Hope you enjoyed that. I will be accepting new characters until the 20th. 

@Everyone, I will ask a question at the end of each post, the first one is:

What kind of luggage did your character bring? I you are an employee, not a guest, what do you bring with you each day (in a purse, bag, etc.)

@Moonlight: Can I change Cece’s job to be a part of the cleaning staff? I if not, that’s fine.

Also @Everyone, if you would like to ship your character with a specific character please say that, if not I will simply ship them with whoever I want, if you don’t want me to do that, please say so.

That’s all, hope you enjoy!

I LOVEEEEEE THIS!

Answers to the questions:

Sonia obviously brought expensive dresses, shoes, accessories, and jewelry. Chris brought nice clothes and shoes as well, but not as expensive as Sonia’s

Chris x Sonia for lifeeeeeeeee

Also, I think I forgot to mention that Chris sometimes call Sonia, ’So’.

Nice, I like it! Marie brought a ton of art supplies and a few changes of clothes- anything else she would need she probably forgot.
