Summerview OOC

Hey, y'all! Carrah May here just helping Sarah out for our monthly check-in. There's no need to post your activity, but please check in to let us know you're still interested. Additionally, feel free to let us know what your characters have been up to and what they might be looking for in the upcoming month! Think of it as a classified section or personal ads for your characters. Other questions or comments? Pop them in here and we'll do what we can to get you answers!

Hello, my dears! This is Jeanne, and I'm bringing y'all a new-but-not-really Charlotte Heywood. You can read about her at ardent, and she's added to my roster as well. More importantly, I'm likely open to keeping any previously established in-game canon for her, just please let me know what might have been established!

One exception to that, where Charlotte and Sidney are concerned, Kate and I are handwaving that the reconciliation due to take place after Sidney's duel with Stringer never happened. Sidney still wrote that letter to Charlotte, but she never received it. Consequently, Charlotte has spent most of the month since then off to herself, not really sure what to make of things. (Emotions are hard, y'all.)

Let's plot!

It's that time again! This month, please just pop in and say if you're staying and if you need to drop any characters. You don't need to link to any specific activity (though you're welcome to if you've been keeping track!) Please reply by Weds 8/3 to avoid being dropped. At that time dropped characters become available to app. If you wish to rejoin, no biggie, just message, inbox, email the mod email etc to pick up any characters that haven't been adopted!

Okay, this should be the last time! Hi, friends, Carrah May here again, bringing you one Alison Heywood. She's the next sister in the Heywood family, just a year or so younger than Charlotte. I'm bringing her in after the end of s1, before the chaos of s2 begins, so she's never been to Sanditon. She's in Summerview to find a match, mostly because her father has had a few years of bad harvests and while she grew up comfortably, she knows that it would be best to marry and move out. She won't care so much for title or fortune, but wants someone who she feels reasonably sure is honest and trustworthy, who can keep their future family sheltered and fed. She's a friendly sort, will probably be a little infatuated with the entire Bridgerton family (and they'll likely remind her of her own large family), is a bit of a romantic and loves poetry and literature. More can be found in her journal!

And as always, I'd love plots or friends or not so close friends and any interaction you'd like to throw our way! (or Lizzie or Francesca or Edmund!)

Well hello my lovelies, it's (mod) Sarah! I've swapped out Susan Vernon (who I love but) for Daphne Bridgerton (whose family needs her. For...reasons...and not just because drama is fun). Daphne had already been gone, but Simon will disappear and the pair we reappear as BRAND newly engaged. So, unlike before, the two are coming straight from being engaged to prevent Simon and Anthony having a duel. They learned that all of Daphne's siblings were at Summerview Park and so thought it best to arrive and hopefully slow their engagement down slightly since they were out of public eye (kind of).

Daphne is a mix of book and show canon-she's slightly more book canon (it's her second season, not her first-all of her proposals were from blah men and Anthony quietly made sure even worse ones she never knew about. But she was considered the Incomparable/Diamond). She's smart, stubborn, and viciously loyal, just like all the Bridgertons, but she has quite the maternal side. She will mother the shit out of you, even if you would like her not to. She's just resigned herself she'll never be an actual mother because Simon has told her that he can't so lol, no drama coming AT ALL. She is a bit innocent even if she will fiercely tell you she can take care of herself because she has 4 brothers.

She needs friends and someone to explain the birds and the bees real fast.

Please love her/me? Give me your plots <33

Alright so this is Beth here with her fourth Catherine "Kitty" Bennet, the second youngest of the Bennet sisters and she used tobe joined at the hip to Lydia, but she hasn't talked to her since she ran off and eloped with Mr Wickham. Anyways, she is just beginning to find herself now that she's (trying to) cutting out the negative influences in her life. She knows that some people from back home dislike her and she gets this.

As for why she came to SV, she's looking for a match, like everyone here. But she's also more convinced it'll be a match of convenience and not for love. Though if you ask her, initially, she'll jokingly say that she came here to escape Mama and Mary. Also, she will be coming in after the scandal sheets drop today via journal, unless my plans change.

IT IS I, KATE. and i bring you gregory bridgerton – THE LAST BRIDGERTON.

okay, so boi is a softie ( but can throw down as you'll see in the narrative i posted ), and very much believes in THE ONE. he's hoping she's here as he hasn't found her in london ( and so therefore where tf else could she be? )

he's 24, coming in the same time period as hyacinth ( after Francesca's weddding ) and knows everything up to that point ( yes, eloise even your marriage ). he loves writing poetry, is just a real romantic, and loves to prank. bridgerton's you've been warned.

read more about him here.

okay, hit me with plot! ♥ y'all!

Hi, y'all! Briefly here for two things!



Thing 1 - Eloise has a new face. I wanted more icons of someone with shorter hair, which led me to Maya Hawke from Little Women. Not all the icons are short hair, but I was able to find enough caps to suit (ty Carrah May) so I'm rolling with it for now.



Thing 2 - Spreadsheet updates! I know some of the missing data is for inactive characters, but figured another post wouldn't hurt. 😉

• Birthdays - Enter your character's month and date.
  
• Parents - For the upcoming Parental Visits plot, we're compiling a grid there to see who we can have visit and who is willing to NPC different characters that come up. Fill in your own character's potential visitors!
  
• Midsummer - Another tab posted early, but for the auditions at the end of July, you can post up there OOC to note who your character would have tried out to play. List as many people for each role as you might like!

( Hey, what have you been doing? )

Hi All! Dash here (Charlotte Heywood and Fanny Price, Player).

Crowe's app was accepted the weekend I got sick and then I have been sick ever since, so apologies for the late introduction, as well as my quiet on Discord and general plotting. I have not gone anywhere it's just flu season here in Australia and I am quietly dying :|

On a brighter note, this is he who generally goes by Crowe.


He is one of Sidney Parker's Dandy Friends from London who spends his life drinking too much and avoiding adult responsibility in every way shape or form. He makes Sidney look like the responsible member of the group.

Despite being an obvious rake, he is mostly harmless, more because he's far too lazy to be the scheming sort. He much prefers when the women fall into his lap than expect him to deceptively pursue them. Charming (when he can be bothered), well mannered (if he must) and clearly coming from money (thanks Dad), Crowe looks like the sort who is ready to find a match... when in reality his main goal is to avoid marriage at all costs.

The only reason that he is here is that he has a severe case of FOMO and will be most displeased that Babbington isn't here as well and that Sidney is making heart eyes at Charlotte. He is however here to make friends, flirt with anyone willing, and corrupt anyone in his path so please do come at me.

P.S. He feels the need to point out that the gif used on the taken page is offensively OOC for him LOL Lest you go thinking he is a soft boi. He is not.

Hi Friends, I'm back again. It's Carrah May, bringing you one stodgy stick in the mud Edmund Bertram from Mansfield Park. He's like Tom, only...not at all. They're both tall with curly hair. And at opposite ends of the spectrum. He's kind and generous, but also moral and a little judgy. And a little bit of a hypocrite. And repressed. So, so repressed. You can find more about him here.

So I'm bringing him in shortly after the Crawfords arrive at Mansfield Park. He's only a little infatuated with Mary and may be swayed a little by other pretty girls if they pay any attention to him. He loves Fanny, but hasn't realized if he's in love with her and will probably be somewhat confused by everyone remembering different things from home.

Does he want to be at Summerview? Not especially. His mother and sisters urged him to go (presumably to stop him spoiling all their fun) and he's not even entirely sure if he wants to marry, but knows it's Expected of him and a Thing he Should do.

So let me know? I'm happy to work up plots or chaos or whatever!

Birthdays Tab - I've pulled in ages from character apps, but please enter your character's birthdate (month and day only) so we can add those things to the plot calendar!

6-25-lion-unicorn Tab - This is pre-planning for the end of month ball. From the plot calendar, Characters must wear either all white (unicorn) or all red (lion), and find they can only dance with those of the opposite color. If you know what color your characters will be wearing, please put them under those columns!

Oh, hi friends! Carrah May here bringing you Lady Francesca Stirling, Countess of Kilmartin- the next in the long line of Bridgerton siblings appearing here lately! Let's see, she's the third youngest, closest in age (originally) to Eloise, and was formerly married to John Stirling, Earl of Kilmartin. He passed a few years ago, and she was just thinking about returning to society in search of a husband when the invitation for Summerview arrived.

She's 25, fairly independent, and has been running the Kilmartin estates more or less on her own for the last few years. She'll have a decent dowry, but won't be parading that information around- she certainly doesn't expect to find love again, and would be content with a friend and someone to share her life with. But. That biological clock is ticking and though she has a number of nieces and nephews, she would adore a baby of her own. Not that she'll be working on that specifically while she's here- she's just in search of the father to that potential child. She's well read, somewhat opinionated, terrible with big feelings, and still somewhat grieving her husband- it hits her at odd moments sometimes.

Otherwise, I'm sure she'd love to see her siblings (and in-laws, even if they aren't in-laws yet!). Friends? People to butt heads with? Bring it on!

Oh hi there folks, it's your mod, and I could not get out of my head that we needed another absolutely terrible person, so here we are with Lady Susan Vernon, from the Lady Susan novella (published with Sanditon). Lady Susan is 35 (ish, never ask a lady her age), a recent widow with one daughter, and was the daughter of an Earl. Her husband was very wealthy, but when he died the estate went to his younger brother Charles so now she is in a bit of a financial bind. She had worked out marrying her daughter to a wealthy Sir Thomas but her daughter Frederica very annoyingly refused to do so. So she brought her here with hopes of marrying her off, and well, if she finds someone too so much the better!



Her financial situation is not well known, and if you saw her you would assume she was very wealthy (and she had been up until quite recently). She's superficially very charming, especially to men, but...is of loose moral character. Let's just say, hide your husbands ladies! She was hoping to steal away a wealthy man before his wife caught wind and hurried her off. She has no qualms about flirting and attaching younger men though, even if her aim is ultimately to marry someone very old and very rich and hope he dies soon after.

She's a peach!

But she's very well read, very accomplished, and can be a lot of fun. She keeps her scheming on the downlow, mostly telling her best friend, a certain Mrs. Johnson, who is annoyingly married to a man who is very wealthy but annoyingly alive. She will be trying to sus everyone out, and probably flirting with handsome men right out the gate.

GIVE ME YOUR PLOTS!!

Hello! Lis here with my second and I would like to formally apologize to everyone already for the Honorable Miss Hyacinth Bridgerton. She is here to annoy the heck out of her siblings and have some fun out of sight from her ever-watchful Mama (see why she will be annoying her siblings because they have the audacity to ruin her fun). Finding an appropriate match is somewhere on the list, but she isn't holding her breath. There hasn't been anyone who meets her lengthy requirements and by her own admission she can be quite annoying.

She is enthusiastic in pretty much everything and isn't afraid to hold her tongue or share her opinion. As the baby of the family there was a certain amount of leeway for her. She saw all of her siblings' foibles and learned from them. To a degree. Ish. Maybe? Jury's still out.

Hyacinth is missing her friends Felicity Featherington and more importantly Gregory, the only missing Bridgerton and the one she is closest to. But in the meantime please point her in the direction of the Regency Frat bros so she can make herself at home.

(She is in stark contrast to my other character, Georgiana Darcy over at docile who is quite shy and can be found in the library or music room most often. She tries to not have a harsh word for anyone, save maybe Lydia Bennet.)

Just realized I forgot to intro... sorry for those of you not on Discord!

This is Jules with my 5th. And this is Miss Kate Sharma of Bridgerton S2 (but my intention is to pepper in a little Kate Sheffield canon too as we go).

Her canon point is the morning of Aubrey Hall when the party is departing. She insists they leave before Anthony has a chance to propose. Kate did arrive with Edwina, but for fairness to anyone who wants to pick her up, Lady Whistledown has sent Edwina back to London and Kate is now alone. And she's been sulky about it. And now Anthony Bridgerton is here and nearly every Bridgerton in the country. Can she find no peace?

Anyway, she's feeling a bit down on herself and she's being trapped here in Summerview Park for her sins. She can be sassy and fun, and would love to form friendships! She's not actually interested in courtship because she's already in love with - because she intends to remain a spinster, and go home to India.

Also, I have Caroline Bingley (who is Kate's twin :O!), Captain Wentworth, Catherine Morland, and Tom Bertram if you want anything with them too! Logs plssss!

Hello, friends! This is Terri, and I am back adding a third character even though I said I wasn't going to. Seeing a clip of Bridgerton overrode that initial thought. Lol.

This is Anthony Bridgerton. He's coming from the Netflix series because I haven't read the books, but he was very lovely in Season 2. Anthony is coming from the point where he has had many tense moments with Kate and failed to propose to Edwina. He thus far has refused to acknowledge that he may have feelings for Kate.

Anthony is intelligent, charming, loyal, and very afraid of his own feelings, so he's pretty guarded. He is incredibly good at being stressed the F out. He loves his family, so I'm glad so many of them are around, but he'll be very shocked. He thought he would be the only one here! He is still insisting he wants to marry for duty, not love.

Drop me some lines for him! I'd be happy for him to have friends that are not directly related to him too! You can reach me on discord or via email, if that is preferable!

I also never truly intro'd Jane Bennet (Pride and Prejudice) or Colonel Brandon (Sense and Sensibility), so if anyone wants to throw anything their way, too, please let me know!! They can be found at notsoplainjane and respectable.
