Contacts
  • Alsatia -- Old college roommate. Nice, a little goofy, with AMAZING HAIR. Seriously, that hair is... there are no words.
  • Dashiel -- Holy crap, are soulmates even possible? Maybe I've just got a bad case of the fangirl.
  • Juliette Keyes -- Pretty sure she's not a ninja.
  • Calevaro -- What a friendly guy! Too bad he couldn't stick around longer to chat.
  • Johnathan -- Le Artiste of leather and lace.
  • Lori -- Future shock jock? Can I pre-order tickets yet?
  • Elias -- A legit English lord. A HOT English lord. I love this town.

RP Hooks
  • Above All This: She came to Prospect to escape her past and make her future, and boy howdy did she succeed beyond her wildest dreams. She's essentially reached NPC-status, but if you need a meeting with an Important Person or a cutthroat boardroom samurai, she might be your gal.
I'm not sure what exactly happened, but I think I won the lottery and declared bankruptcy at least five times in that meeting.
  • (Still Practically) New in Town: Moved to Prospect from New York years ago, immediately enrolled at UCP. Spent almost all of her time on and around campus. Now that she's graduated, she splits her time between lecturing on campus, her office at the Black Ridge Building, and traveling the world pursuing various business ventures. Which doesn't leave time to get out much.
There's this great [fill in the blank] right around the corner!
  • Fame: Had some success as a model before she moved to Prospect, and has good enough genes and enough money that she still looks about the same in her late twenties. (In fact, it looks like she hit 25 and then just kinda stopped.) Might seem familiar from an old print ad or billboard. Made some waves in the business world after she published her Ph.D. research and just kept going and going. Now she is regularly featured in the "top richest people in the world" lists, though she's not immediately recognizable to most.
Do I know you? You seem familiar.
  • Perpetual Academic: Enrolled in 2014, graduated with a Master's degree in Economics in 2016, graduated with her Ph.D. in May 2020, Dr. Welkin occasionally teaches and advises. She has an office on campus.
Jesus, haven't you graduated yet?
  • Instructor: She teaches a business theory class now and again as a guest lecturer at UCP. Undergrads might know her as an instructor, business & similar majors might even have her as their advisor.
Can I get an extension? My grandma died. Again. No, the other one. The other other one.
  • Shady Past: She was a bit of a mafia princess back home. Her father was The Man To Know when you needed your cash flow scrubbed. She's moved way past that. Or has she?

Disclaimer
  • Frequently interrupted by RL: My RL is hectic, so I'm only able to get online a little here and there. And as much as I try to avoid it, I may need to log off at inopportune times. I appreciate your understanding.
  • Open to the Darkness in the WoD: Though Molly is set at Risk 0, I'll usually agree to permanent or semi-permanent changes to the character if the drama is awesome and appropriate. Essentially I just don't want to "pre-consent" to any of the following:
    • Random Acts of Death and/or Dismemberment;
    • Extended imprisonment, enslavement, and/or mind control;
    • ...and so on. That's not to say I won't consent to any of the above -- I don't mind being a victim! -- but anything longer than a scene or two, let's discuss it first. Also, if my RP is heading in a direction that might result in one of the above, I'd really appreciate a friendly OOC warning, just to make sure we're all on the same page.
  • Here to have fun: Finally, Molly's player is an adult and fully open to adult and very dark RP. But I'm not here to make anyone uncomfortable, so if our RP starts to head in an uncomfortable direction, just OOCly let me know. I'll always be happy to FTB, change the IC subject, or steer the RP in a different direction!
