Chatterbox: Pudding's Place
Dear Whomever This
Dear Whomever This May Concern,
I am the Gatekeeper of the old palace in your town, which is now turned into a resort. Even if you don't live in Pudding, it's a relatively short hop over. Please pack your bags, and come! You're allowed to take companions such as AEs and CAPTCHAs, and additional pets. Kindly fill out the form on the other side of this paper, and pack your bags. The train will be arriving at the nearest station at midnight. I sincerely hope you properly equip yourself. It would be a shame if you died before you truly enjoy your stay at the palace.
Sincerely,
The Gatekeeper
"Are you sure that this letter is meant for me?"
"Yes my liege. Your name was written about forty-three times on the envelope."
You sit back, and massage your temples. "Do you think it could be a threat? They suggest murder, or death at the very least," you mutter to the butler.
"I do not know. The writer seemed genuinely concerned."
"Pack my bags. They must be ready by midnight. I shall come out when I have finished filling out the back."
"Are-are you actually going on this preposterous venture?!"
"My loyal servant, there is only one way to find out the true intentions of this letter."
You dismiss the butler, and flip over the paper. You see the following.

You're about to turn it back over when your eye catches sight of something you're sure that hadn't been there before. It reads: Please come properly equipped, it really would be a shame if you were murdered. The life expectancy at the palace is rather low due to . . . unfortunate technicalities.
You sigh, and start to fill out the sheet.
~~~
I will take twelve people before I start; feel free to join after, but still fill out the sheet. If you hate Broadway musicals, I suggest you bring earmuffs. Also, the train is rather old, so I highly advise your character to bring duck tape or something like a hook to hold on by.

Name- Ezra
Gender- Male
Age- 25 (If that's too old, I'm down with lowering it a few years.)
Companions- N/A
Pets- A baby cobra named Edwin, who is brown and black. He usually rides in Ezra's pocket.
Personality- Loves being around other people, but gets shy when forced to actually engage in conversation with them. Loves music and reading. He lives in his own world, so people tend to judge him a lot. He doesn't really notice this, or care. When he makes friends, they always end up being very close. (So, if someone were to, you know, die or something, he would be devastated. Especially if it were someone he knew.) He can appear cold to people that don't know him, but this is entirely false. He is very set in his ideas.
Appearance- Tall (about 6' 1") and rather pale, with dark blond hair carefully slicked back. Usually wears a white dress shirt with a black vest over it. (He enjoys being very formal all the time.) Black pants and black leather dress shoes.
Luggage- EARMUFFS. Also plenty of books, probably a suitcase full. And some way to play music-easily portable, like a Walkman. And a whole lot of tapes. A strong, pointy, hook of some sort, for the train ride. Like a pirate's hand. (This hook should be slightly imposing-could make other people nervous, think it's a weapon.) He'll also bring a bright pink-and-orange striped umbrella, a tiny pouch filled with pine needles, and an empty dagger sheath.
Other- N/A

Ok good, I didn't see an age limit so I wasn't sure. Thank you!

It's actually a ski lodge, which is a type of solo write where there is a murder mystery slowly evolving. One by one the characters (who are either CBers or CBer-made) get killed off, until only the murderer is left. The characters try to figure out who the murderer is before the story ends, and nearly everyone dies. Only the writer knows who the murderer is. Usually others are allowed to post suggestions for the story's evolution, but all the final decisions are up to the creator.
An SI is something where there is a theme (or not) and you make all your posts under a name related to that theme. You are trying to guess who the others are, and they attempt to find you out. You can post clues, and in some cases (I strongly recommend asking) still guess after you've been found out.

Oh ok! I'm so sorry, I'm new here!
(January 4, 2018 - 3:13 pm)
May I reserve a spot? Or, I guess three, since I will be bringing a CAPTCHA and an AE. @Ezra- Wow, are you really 25? Are you an older CBer who's returned? Either way, nice to meet you!
(January 4, 2018 - 1:03 pm)
Nice to meet you too, Vyolette! Just my character is 25. I myself am an age which I shall not disclose.
