    The Unfortunate Truths

    Dear Roleplayer,

    We are going to be starting with your character describing your job. You'll tell us what you do, before going home that night. Each character will get two letters in the mail, one from the Creator, and one from the Director of the Park. You are then formally invited on an expedition of magnificent proportion.

    The island does not support aircrafts, so the only way on the island is on a boat, which will take off from Rabat, Morocco.

    The expedition will take thirty days. Each important post I make will have a date on it, indicated how long the expedition has left. The boat is not returning to the island for thirty days, if not delayed by unpredictable weather conditions in the Atlantic Ocean. This takes place during 1983.

    If you have not created a profile when the game starts, there will not be a way for you to join in.


    There are no special trips to the island allowed, unless I say there is one. Unfortunately, that means if you want to join, you need to contact me, and I can wait to start the game.

    The game will start promptly June 20th, 2008.

    Thank you for your cooperation,

    Description: Hazel is small and not very tan, despite her working outside almost constantly.

Her parents expected her to become a journalist, but she found her true passion in paleontology. The only family members she keeps in touch with are her aunt and uncle in Massachusetts, whom she lives with when not abroad. She is rather a solitary person, a bit awkward in social situations, particularly with people younger than her (since she skipped several grades of school, she is used to being around older colleagues) and especially with children. Although she is extremely intelligent, she is often reluctant to speak up; but if anyone doubts her capabilities she can become extremely defensive.

    Long Day At The Office

    I zoomed in my lens, focusing on the beautiful view in front of me. The sky was a magnificent shade of blue, small, innocent clouds drifted lazily by, and a cool breeze wound its way through the prominant landscape. In the distance, some thirty odd yards away, was a small group of lions, lying sleepily in the shade of a tree. The male had been looking at me a long time, but had not made any movements. And although I had gotten in about ten good shots, I wanted better ones. I slowly inched closer.

    The lionesses perked up at me, now only a good fifteen yards away. I was really pushing my luck. But the shots were amazing. Such beautiful creatures, and how close!

    The male stood up and growled a little.

    Too close, I thought and I inched backward some. He kept his eyes focused on me. I was careful not to lose eye contact with him. He took a small step forward. I felt panic shoot through my body. I took a few more hurried steps backwards. The Jeep wasn't parked far and Lionel was waiting patiently for me to return. I chanced a glance back. I turned my gaze back to the lion and gave a loud gasp and almost uttered a scream.

    He was literally inches from my own face, sniffing me. I froze. At first he just stood there, sniffing, but ultimately must've thought I didn't smell too nice because at that time he emitted a mighty roar.

    I booked it. I turned and ran, ran as fast as I could, for the Jeep. The lion followed.

    "Start the car!" I bellowed glancing back at the lion chasing after me. I heard the car start.

    Just a little further, I thought to myself. Lionel opened the door for me.

    "Jump!" He screamed. I hurled myself with all the force I could muster into the car and slammed it behind me. I barely missed his teeth. Lionel floored the gas pedal.

    "Jesus Christ!" I gasped looking back at the lion as he gave another mighty roar. He had stopped chasing us. I turned to look at Lionel and we both smiled.

    ***********************​

    I dropped the manilla folder containing my safari pictures on my boss' desk. He just stared incredulously at me.

    "What the Hell happened to you?" He asked. My hair was disheveled and there was a lot of dirt on my clothes.

    "I wore out my welcome." I said sitting down opposite my boss. He laughed and a grin replaced his awestruck look. "Go ahead, look at them. They're good. I risked my neck for those." I crossed my legs and draped my arms over the back of the chair. He opened the folder and took out the pictures. By the look on his face, I could tell he liked them.

    "These are amazing!" He exclaimed, shuffling through the pictures. I brushed my shoulders in a cocky manner.

    "I know," I said. He continued to stare. "These are garaunteed a spot in the magazine, right?" I asked warily.

    "Of course!" I smiled. He looked up from the pictures. "Go home and take a shower. You can pick up your check for these tomorrow." I nodded and left his office.

    I opened the door to my small apartment. It was only a one bedroom, one bath, but it was nice; the perfect size for me and my German Shepard puppy, Buster. He was the only thing in my life now, what with the recent divorce of Jeremy...

    Buster came bounding up to see me. He put his paws on my thighs and began to lick the air, aiming for my face. I reached down and pet him, scratching behind his ears and rubbing his back.

    "Hey there, buddy." I cooed. "Oh, yes. I love you. I love you!" I let him lick my chin. "Hmm..."

    Buster stopped and viewed my appearance with almost the same look as my boss.

    "It was a long day at the office." I smiled and it almost looked as if he did the same.​

    I'm sorry Mr. Katz, there's nothing we can do. The tumor in inoperable

    David rolled out of bed. His body still sore from the bar fight the night before. He slowly got up and tried not to aggrivate his bruised ribs. Taking a thick red marker, he put an X over yesterday's date and smiled. "One more thing off of my list."

    He eased himself into a kitchen chair and sipped some coffee. "Now what should I do next?"

    Meet Robert. M Dannicker

    Robert M. Dannicker’s eyelids fluttered open as his alarm went off. He quickly pushed the off button, knocking the clock onto the floor. He hated the 6am wakeups, specially when he had his late nights. He rolled over, and looked at his sleeping wife. Her pale skin looked even prettier when she didn’t wear the makeup. He never told her that, but he always thought it was true. He leaned over, and kissed her on the forehead. She stretched out and opened her eyes. She looked at him with her beautiful hazel eyes with that loving stare of hers. He leaned in and gave her a gentle peck on the lips. She smiled, grabbing his hand.

    “Morning handsome.” She said, as she rubbed the ring on his finger, “Didn’t take it off before you went to bed again?”

    He smiled, and pulled his hand away, letting the diamond in it glisten from the morning sun that shone through their crimson curtains, “Only to remember how lucky I am to have you babe.”

    She laughed, and pulled herself out of bed. She quickly covered herself with her robe, and walked towards the door.

    “I’ll get breakfast ready, you go wake up Chase, he has work this morning.” She said, not looking back.

    Danner pulled himself up from the bed, and looked at himself in the long mirror. He looked at the scars on his chest, from that fight all those years back. He hadn’t really known how to do much more then punch back then. Sure, he was tall and he was pretty strong, but when you don’t have the skills nothing else really matters. He had made sure he got the skills after that. He knew a little bit of everything, and he worked out to keep himself fit. Just in case he ever got into a situation like that, he needed to be prepared. After all, he had a family to live for.

    He quickly slid on a shirt, and some jogging pants, walking out of his room. He stopped at his son’s door, he could hear the snoring all ready. He banged on the door with great force, sending the wood of the door into a vibration. He could hear the movement of Chase on the inside.

    “Get up boy.” He yelled at the door. The sounds of feet touching the ground was heard, and began to walk away.

    “You’d better be up and about within the next fifteen minutes.” He yelled as he went back to his room. He had to get ready too.

    ------------------​

    Danner only half listened as the new advertisement interns presented their ideas. Bulls**t, all of the ideas. They all presented sex as the advertisement ploy. Sexy women dancing, showing off their products. He didn’t like it one bit. He wanted new ideas, not overused bulls**t. He waited until the last one stopped talking, and looked him in the eyes.

    “What do you think Sir?” the boy asked, his voice was shaking with nervousness. He stared deeply into the boy’s eyes. He looked him up and down. Intimidation, that was his weapon. He stood up, and quickly the intern sat down. Cowering imbecile.

    He towered over them. His muscles still showed even through the thick materials of his suit, and his gaze showed no kindness. No, kindness wasn’t something he brought to work. At work, emotion meant nothing. They all looked at him nervously as he walked to were all the poster boards for the presentations sat. He took a lighter from his breast pocket, and flicked it. The flame protruded from the top of the lighter, and he slide the flame past every poster. He watched as the posters quickly took fire, as it greedily overtook the entire poster boards. He sat back in his seat, as one the braver of the interns ran for the fire extinguishers. He quickly put them out, as the foam covered half the meeting room. He looked up, and wondered why the fire alarm didn’t go off.

    “Leave.” He finally said, as the terrified eyes of all but one of the interns looked at him. They quickly filed out, as he stood up. He grabbed the brave intern by the shoulder just as he turned to leave.

    “Not you.” He said with a smile, “Tell me about your presentation again.”

    For the hunt

    Seth scanned the thick rainforest ahead of him. He can see the two sets of paw marks on the dirt beneath him. It would only be a matter of time before he found his prey, or it finds him. His hunting knife glinted as rays of yellow reflected off its sleek surface. Sweat had created a dark spot on his flecktarn tank shirt and his hair hung off his head like a damp rag. Wild animals called in the distance, but Seth was only interested in one in particular. Crouched low, he listened intently to the natural ambience of the amazon. Then a low growl became audible behind him.

    The cougar zigzagged towards him at a blurring speed, leaping on its hind legs. It propelled itself, mouth agape, up and over Seth. Three bloody slices dripped blood down Seths shoulder. Slow to react, the cougar vanished into the shrubbery as fast as it came. Seth sprinted through the greenery, branches smacking against his face. A small clearing lay ahead, the waiting cougar lay poised. He took slow steps towards it, knife at the ready. Leaves and twigs cracked under his black boots as he pushed away bushes. This kill would be his.

    The cougar snarled and lashed out with sharp claws as Seth neared. Then he sprinted forward, swinging his blade at its neck. The feline dodged and sprang onto him. Seth put his forearms crossed in front as the cat ripped shreds from his skin. He found an opening as the cougar displayed its teeth and rammed the knife deep into the roof of its mouth. He felt the weight slam onto him as the animal went limp.

    Returning to his jeep, he threw his catch onto the rear cargo. Driving off into the rugged distance with a new pelt.

    "Krill, there's an important letter here for you." He smiled at his students as they collected their books.
