Dracula, but modern. When lawyer Jonathan Harker goes off on a business trip and doesn't return when he's supposed to, Mina Murray (his fiancee) decides to take matters into her own hands and save the day. That's it that's the plot it's literally just girlboss time. Also this will lead into an expanded universe scenario where I will add a few more gothlit plotlines as the horror squad Scooby-Doo's it up. Prepare for blood, gore, suggestive themes (no explicit content! Just a few mentions alongside some allegories for assault in vampirism because I'm in a mood.) and death among other triggers.
Obligatory @'ing of my favorite people:
@Tired-but-passionate @MerrilyWeRollAlong @Icefire if any or all of you want to join I can make us a DM and we can bring back the Frankensquad? Anyways hi.
I'll post a template if and when people join.
(Hi dude! I can safely say that I’m a sucker for anything vampires or Mina Murray related, so I’m interested! Uh do you mind if I @ you in our other stuff, btw?)
(Hell yeah, and hell yeah! Shall we then?)
(Epic! Uhh, I had a sort of cast list? I'd play as many characters as you don't take, but shall we discuss roles?)
(Yeah yeah. I definitely don’t mind playing more than one person if no one else joins)
(Lol yeah. Okay, so we basically have most of the cast of the original, except Seward, Arthur, and Quincy are merged into a friendly Texan psychiatrist with rich parents named Elliot Franklin, I did this to keep the cast more limited as I'll be adding and sort of haha funny killing off most of the main cast that I play at least as time goes on lmao. But anyways, it's Elliot, Mina, Jonathan, Drac, van Helsing, and Lucy for now? If that's good?)
(Oooo okay! That’s fine by me, I like this sound of this Elliot guy. Since I’m predictable (lol) I can take Mina and Jonathan, and maybe Lucy too? shrug I don’t mind if you want to do smth different tho)
(Nah, go ahead! I'll take the other three!)
(I'll pass on the RP but stalk it…totally down for remaking the DM though!)
(I mean if you wanted to join I certainly wouldn't mind giving up a character or two… or not! I get that! But I enjoy hanging out with you!)
(ehh I think I'll just stalk for now, thanks for the offer tho!)
(No problem dude! Enjoy the show!)
(Alright cool ^^)
(Awesome. Okay, so do you want to expand on characters or plot or setting a bit more?)
(Maybe setting? I also want to talk about the plot a little too just so we don’t have too many lulls)
(Makes sense! Sorry for responding late. Anyways, setting is just modern day London, not that I know too much about that besides from British media lmfao. What did you want to discuss for plot?)
(Alright, makes sense lol. Uh right now I’m thinking of doing something with Lucy, bc I know she’s been done dirty in the past. I still want to go with the original plot line of her dying and becoming a vamp, but I don’t want it to be bc of stupid reasons lol)
(I was thinking that maybe some sort of heroic sacrifice could lead to that, and then they try to help her instead of just killing her? Idk?)
(Could be interesting if Elliot proposed to Lucy though, and they were getting engaged like Mina and Jonathan too? We don’t have to do that tho, if it’s sticking to the original plot too closely)
(I was thinking that maybe some sort of heroic sacrifice could lead to that, and then they try to help her instead of just killing her? Idk?)
(Yeah yeah, I was thinking something along those lines too ^^ it would be interesting to explore the dynamic of Mina and vamp Lucy)
(Yeah! Also I love the idea of Elliot and Lucy because literally dream team idk.)
(Oh alright, cool! I think that’s all that’s really been on my mind ^^)
(Awesome! I have a few more plot points I’d like to bring up as we move along.)
