So, the past one I tried to have died, so I'm starting another pop punk band rp! In case you don't know, pop punk is kinda the style of Fall Out Boy, Panic! AT The Disco and My Chemical Romance. This rp will be about whatever we decide to call the band forming and becoming a huge band lol. Please remember, be nice to everyone in this rp. Don't try to control everyone because nobody likes that. Please don't ignore people, and wait for them to respond unless notified otherwise. One last thing that I think I should mention: Don't have your character be an attention hog who is good at everything. For example, my character is the lead singer. She can also play guitar, but isn't the best at it. That is okay. What isn't okay is when your character is the pianist and s/he can also sing amazingly, play guitar like a boss and play drums. Basically, don't , make any mary sues and we'll be fine. I know personally when someone else does what your character is supposed to do, it hurts a lot. Anyway, enough with the rules, lets get this rp rolling!

Personality: Helena is really sweet, compasoniate, and shy. She mainly expresses herself through art, and doesn't talk very much. However, once she opens up to you and is talking about something she likes, she'll never shut up
Quirks: Has a signature shy smile, always is tapping along to unheard music, small doodles drawn up and down her arms, dances or moves dramaticly while she sings
Job In Band: Lead Singer
Backstory: Helena grew up being emotionally abused by her parents, music being her only escape from that. She has been bullied for as long as she's been in school, so she's really shy and hard to trust people. She has depression, and has hurt herself a few times, but is mostly just emotionally damaged. She believes that a day will come when she has true friends and everything is alright.
Other: Huge fan of Panic! At The Disco, Fall Out Boy, and excpesially My Chemical Romance, can play guitar but not well, and can also play some flute, french horn, and trumpet from being in band for all her school years
(Can I join and have my character be lead guitarist?)
Name: Ryan Ford
Gender: Male
Age: 19
Sexuality: Bi
Appearance: Black hair, green eyes, a lot of tattoos on his torso. He's tall and fit and has an earring on his left ear. He has scars over his arms and sometimes fresh cuts. https://i.pinimg.com/originals/b4/6d/b0/b46db0b5ad29c9e717cc1787a87e4dee.jpg
Usual clothing: (image above applies for this too) Leather jacket with long sleeves, would prefer to go without shirt underneath, but if he must, a plain white shirt. Ripped jeans with doodles on them (see quirks) and ratty black boots are his thing. Kinda like a 'greaser' look.
Personality: Ryan likes to flirt to cover up his anxiety. He tries to play it cool most of the time. (Develop more later)
Job In Band: Drummer
Quirks: He really enjoys eating loud chips when someone important is speaking just to see how mad they'll get. He also doodles on his jeans in permanent marker when he's bored.
Backstory (Optional): His father lost custody of him after the cops found his mother's body beaten to death in a closet (a neighbor called about someone screaming). He was ten years old. Ryan went into foster care, then left as soon as he could. The band really saved him mentally/emotionally.
Other: He cuts himself at least twice a week. He's never told the band because he doesn’t want them to worry about him, nor has he gone to therapy because he never wanted to be labeled as 'depressed'.
((Ahhhhh your character is great!))
(Thanks, I’ll post my character tomorrow.)
((Okie dokie, sounds good :) ))
(Is pianist and keyboardist the same thing? If so then can I join as the other lead guitarist?)
/Should we change the topic to a “realistic/modern rp”?/
(Is pianist and keyboardist the same thing? If so then can I join as the other lead guitarist?)
(Yeah, they’re the same thing)
(Awe then can I join as the other lead guitarist?)
Hopefully we get someone else to join so we can start soon.
