I've got a couple of writing things right now, but I'll join.

Here is my second charrie, inspired by the book A Long Walk To Water:

Personality: Helpful, encouraging, determined, intelligent 

Time period and country: South Sudan, 1935

Backstory: He is in the Dinka tribe, which fights with the Nuer tribe. He has two sisters and two brothers. Every day, his sisters walk to the pond to fetch water while he goes to school and helps on his family's farm. Meanwhile, his country is constantly in the middle of a war.

Other: Open to shipping

Name: Aileen O'Connor (known as 'Compass')

Age:15

Appearance: Shoulder length, choppy, uneven brown hair that she cuts herself. She often covers this with a grey newsie hat, and either leaves her hair untucked and braided, or pushes her hair up into her hat. She has piercing eyes, that appear to be a greyish/bluish, like a stormy ocean. She is short, small and skinny, with pale skin that freckles heavily. She typically wears a faded, see-through women's skirt which was too long for her, so she cut off the bottom, and now it is frayed and as uneven as her hair. It was also too wide, so she straps it up with a pair of faded red suspenders. Underneath the skirt, she has on a pair of boys trousers. Often, if she needs to run or climb, she hitches the skirt up, and can move freely. She also wears a girl's white shirt with buttons in the back, that happens to fit her (but only just). She wears this with the sleeves rolled up in the summer. At night or in the winter she wears an oversized men's coat that is brown. She keeps the edges of the sleeves rolled up, but it still looks comically large on her. On her feet she has a pair of brown oversized boy's boots, with mismatched laces. She carries a brown rucksack that holds all of her necessities; including her newsie hat (when needed), an old copy of the Bible, some drawings her friend 'Grin' drew for her, a long piece of faded cloth, a spyglass, a slingshot that her 'brother' (they have pretended to be brother and sister for most of their life, and have adopted each other as such) 'Spot' gave her, a harmonica from her friend 'Race' and a compass, from which her nickname is derived.

Personality: She is very opinionated, and is extremely tough for all her years on the streets. She is very much a tomboy, but yearns for female friends, because she sometimes feels like none of her guy friends understand her. She has quite a lot of hubris, and sometimes throws herself into fights she cannot win, and therefore gets beat up often because she is so small. She is extremely loyal to her friends, and has a strong motherly instinct for young children because she has a dark spot in her past. She loves music, and is good at singing and playing her harmonica, but knows she'll never be able to perform because she has no formal training. 

Historical period and country: She is from America, but immigrated from Ireland when she was five. She lives in New York in 1899. (You all saw this coming...)

Backstory: After immigrating from Ireland when she was five with her little one year old brother, her parents died when she was seven. Because she had no place to go, she hit the streets with her brother. However, after she was arrested and put in a kids jail, she was not allowed to go get her brother, and after she escaped from prison, she found his dead body lying in an alley. Then, she met a boy around her same age named Aedan Conlon, and they decided to become newsies and pretend to be brother and sister, so they couldn't be separated. She made some other friends, including a boy named Antony Higgins, who was a newsie, but called himself 'Racetrack' or 'Race'. They became best friends, but now into their teen years they are starting to fall in love with each other. Another was a boy named 'Grin' Boyle, who is 11, and she feels a great need to protect him because he reminds her of her younger brother. He is a talented artist. She also has a friend called 'Boots' McAlleen, who is biracial, but takes on the appearance of his African American mother. This makes it difficult for him, but he's 13, and Aileen firmly believes that he can hold his own.

Other: Anyone can crush on her, but she won't like them back (sorry!) because she likes her friend Race.

Question for Leafpool: So...this looks like a really cool RP. (I loooooove history and historical fiction, and I've never done that type of RP before.) However, I've already joined the Sea Somg RP (lots of commmitment to that one) and the Hamilton RP (not sure about that one yet, commitment wise). And my ski lodge, and I'm doing a bit of poetry. 

That was a long winded introduced but my question is...how much commitment is required for this RP? Does it depend on the character or the number of people or just is what it is? Would you like me to join? I'm not pinpointing my questions but er, uh, just...general response to my thoughts I guess?
