The Freak Show OOC
people are strange when you're a stranger...
The wind that blows into town smells like fried dough and kettle corn. In a distant field, skyscrapers of bright bulbs and churning machinery light the sky while tinny music and raucous shouts fill the air around the midway. The carnival's energy is contagious, but this isn't just any carnival that's come to town. This is the Freak Show.

To most patrons of the carnival, it appears to be fairly standard despite its old school flair-- but beneath the surface, the Freak Show is full of secrets. None of its workers have wound up there by accident. Many of them have gifts that simply cannot be explained-- eerie little affinities that have been passed down their family line, whether they are aware of this fact or not. Their talents have strengthened since joining the carnival, their strange skills almost impossible to ignore. They are bruja, rootworkers, strega, sorcières. Witches.

I swear I am alive. Mostly. Sonofacrap. I have to work Friday until Next Saturday opening shift. That means I Crawl out of bed at 5am and fall into work by 6am. and am stuck there until 3pm. Can someone just shoot me? *whimpers* if I'm on AIM kick me? I miss RP and ya'll! Work's been evil and it's so not worth $7.25 XD

TS again, from Teagan's intro post of last night, with a second character. This probably could have been added onto Teagan's, but he felt like he deserved his own separate post.

Meet Marcus Caravahlo, El Lobo Feroz. He would have been with this show for a couple of years now, because every circus needs a strongman/savage, right? He's run with other crews as well, since he was about 13, so lifers might know him or of him. His reputation isn't great, and he prides himself on that. He would have had a lady partner in his savage man act until very recently (he ran her off; not the first time this has happened), so currently he's working solo doing the typical "feat of strength" stunts and whatnot. While he certainly possesses abnormal strength and size, it's in no way magical. He's human, just huge.

Everything else is in the journal. Backstory and the like is always very welcome! Marcus can be a divisive or even volatile character at times, but I promise that I am not. Feel free to hit me up on aim at "TheLonelyCannibal", or email (lonelycannibal@gmail.com).
