OOC: Hello from a "newbie"
Hello everyone! My name is Lina and I'm a new addition to the players in the Mansion. My character is called Emily Brandon, and I will bring her around as soon as I know her app number (nudge nudge hint hint, mods. :D).
I have been roleplaying quite a bit in the past mostly on forums and chats, but this is my very first journal RP. I should also note that I'm actually from Finland, meaning that English is not my first language. I hope that keeps the resident grammar/spelling nazis at bay if I make small errors. ;D
About Emily, though -
She is a 29 year old woman working as a restaurant chef. She is new to the town as she is only now moving in because of a job offer she got from the restaurant La Fee Vert. She is extremely career driven and very successful. If some other character is very restaurant-savvy, they might recognize her name since she has been and still is writing a column in a gourmet magazine - let's call it Gourmet - and has been the chef of several Michelin-starred restaurants. Even though she is seemingly outgoing and friendly, her personal life has been a little... dry... due to her giving everything to her job. Her PB, by the way, is Rachel Weisz.
That's about it, I think. As I said, Emily will move in as soon as we get our appartment number. ;)
