Stephanie Plum, The Bounty Hunter RPG (Please join! Everyone is allowed to join!)

Note: This book is based mostly on the Stephanie Plum book series by Janet Evanovich, but has been modified slightly to make it more youthfully oriented, I suppose you could say... but if you have no idea what this book is about then here is a link to hopefully give you the gist of what they are about through summary... but because no one probably has read them before... we're going to start from the beginning...

http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg...833476-8401510

Stephanie Plum, an ex-personal shopper, needs to find a way to make money quick, before she has to move in with her crazy family. She decides to turn to her cousin, Vincent Plum, a man who falls in love with all things including ducks or so it's rumored, who is also a bail bondsman. He's reluctant to hire her because she's a girl but she won't take no for an answer. With Joe Morelli, her ex-crush and the man she lost her virginity, on the loose, she tries to apprehend him, but is it going to be impossible for her to catch him or will she end up in more danger than she realized. With the help of a very skilled bounty hunter, Ranger, assisting her will she be able to catch Morelli?

Background: She's Hungarian-Italian. She used to be a personal shopper at Macy's until she was laid off. Now she is going to work as a bounty hunter.

Personality: Witty, very sarcastic, smart, sly, very backhanded, usually looks out for himself, but develops genuine affection for Stephanie. He's not rough, just not gentle.. and he's always thinking about one thing....
Background: He grew up as a Morelli, in New Jersey, known as the scum of the earth. He was raised in a crazy environment, as a ruffian. Now he's accused of killing a man and he's on the run, but not before he plays around with Stephanie's head. And he won't leave, he's from the Burg.... and people from the Burg never really leave....

Background: His record shows that he lives in a vacant lot, he's not willing to disclose much info about himself, but he has an ex wife and daughter that live in FL. He ends up having feelings for Steph and thinks she is ridiculous because she has a habit for blowing up cars and getting into more trouble than the job is worth, he never tries to change her though, but often tries to get her more in shape. He is a man of complete mystery, but he's not in the market for a relationship or so he says.... Besides being a primo bounty hunter, he is also involved in several other services, including bodyguard protection.

Any other characters you may want to play if you know the book, may be made available later... if you want to be a madeup I'll review the profiles and then talk with you... if you have any questions, just PM me.. or post of course...

Rules:
1) Have a good time, this RPG is supposed to be a good time, have fun, make jokes and laugh, but try to stay on the storyline a little.
2)Basically I'll just contact you if you're out of line which I don't think will happen. You can have several characters just make sure you can handle RPing with all of them, and also try to make your posts at least two lines.... Thanks!

Storyline (quoted from Barnes and Noble.com):

" FROM OUR EDITORS
Welcome to colorful Trenton, New Jersey, and the wild and wonderful world of Stephanie Plum. In One for the Money, rookie "apprehension agent" Plum may be a bit wet behind the ears, but nobody's gonna take it easy on her; especially her first skip, an ex-cop and murder suspect named Morelli.

ANNOTATION
Janet Evanovich makes a major debut with this witty and critically acclaimed crime novel. Meet Stephanie Plum of Trenton, New Jersey. She's a rookie bail bondswoman who has the awkward habit of leaping first and looking later when she's out snagging bail jumpers. It's not a job for the faint at heart, but it's tailor-made for Stephanie Plum.

FROM THE PUBLISHER
Watch out, world. Here comes Stephanie Plum, a bounty hunter with attitude. In Stephanie's opinion, toxic waste, rabid drivers, armed schizophrenics, and August heat, humidity, and hydrocarbons are all part of the great adventure of living in Jersey. She's a product of the "burg," a blue-collar pocket of Trenton where houses are attached and narrow, cars are American, windows are clean, and (God forbid you should be late) dinner is served at six. Now Stephanie's all grown up and out on her own, living five miles from Mom and Dad's, doing her best to sever the world's longest umbilical cord. Her mother is a meddler, and her grandmother is a few cans short of a case. Out of work and out of money, with her Miata repossessed and her refrigerator empty, Stephanie blackmails her bail bondsman cousin, Vinnie, into giving her a try as an apprehension agent. Stephanie knows zilch about the job requirements, but she figures her new pal, fearless bounty hunter Ranger, can teach her what it takes to catch a crook. Her first assignment: nail Joe Morelli, a former vice cop on the run from a charge of murder one. Morelli is also the irresistible macho pig who took Stephanie's virginity at age sixteen and then wrote the details on the bathroom wall of Mario's Sub Shop. There's still powerful chemistry between these two, so the chase should be interesting. It could also be extremely dangerous, especially when Stephanie encounters a heavyweight title contender who likes to play rough. Benito Ramirez is known for his brutality to women. At the very least, his obsession with Stephanie complicates her manhunt and brings terror and uncertainty into her life. At worst, it could lead to murder. Witty, fresh, and full of surprises, One for the Money is among the most eagerly awaited crime novels of the season.

SYNOPSIS
Stephanie Plum is a bounty hunter in Trenton, New Jersey. She's out of work and out of money. Her first assignment is to nail Joe Morelli, a former vice cop on the run from a charge of murder one."

Note: If you wish to change the appearance of anyone than just tell me who you wish to change to and we'll discuss it.

Darling, I'm not sure if anyone has ever read "The Bounty Hunter" books, or even the show for that fact. You might want to consider browsing around, and see what kinds of RPs are popular.

Oh, and be care with "bumping" your thread cause the admins who're in charge, they don't like it when people "bump" threads, and can result in having your posting privs suspended.

I'm Joe by the way, and it's a pleasure to meet you.

Grandmom Mazur

Ann Morgan Guilbert would be perfect, I think, for Grandmom Mazur. I think she has the attitude, the body and age of the character. Thoughts?

What does everyone think of Twelve Sharp? Hot?
