Default Scarborough Fair
Okay so this is an RP that I made a long time ago that I thought it would be fun to bring back. This RP is based off a book I just read by Nancy Werlin, titled "Impossible" The credit for the altered lyrics of Scarborough Fair goes to her. Enjoy

Are you going to Scarborough Fair
Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme
Remember me to one who lives there
She must be a true love of mine

Tell her she'll sleep in a goose-feathered bead
Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme
Tell her I swear she'll have nothing to dread
She must be a true love of mine

Tell her tomorrow her answer make known
Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme
What er' she may I'll not leave her alone
She must be a true love of mine

Her answer it came in a week and a day
Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme
I'm sorry good sir I must answer thee nay
I'll not be a true love of thine

With the sting of my curse she can never be free
Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme
Unsless she unravels my riddling three
She will be a true love of mine

Tell her to make me a magical shirt
Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme
Without any seem or needlework
Else she'll be a true love of mine

Tell her to find me an acre of land
Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme
Between the salt water and the sea strand
Else she'll be a true love of mine

Tell her to plow it with just a goat's horn
Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme
And sow it all over with one grain of corn
Else she be a true love of mine
And her daughters forever possessions of mine


Charlotte and Caroline Scarborough have just finished their seventh year at Hogwarts. Their parents have given them permission to stay the summer at their home in the English Countryside while they are away in Italy on business.

Since the girl's parents will be away only certain people are permitted to stay at the home with Charlotte and Caroline. Each of the girl's best friends from Hogwarts will be there. Longtime family friend and Charlotte's childhood boyfriend will be staying as he does every summer. The family's usual house staff will of course be there as well. Included in the staff is the Estate Manager and Godson of Mr. and Mrs. Scarborough,Tristan Ramsay. He has gown up with both girls and thinks of them both as the sisterly type. What will happen though when Caroline starts to see him in a new light? Could he forget his brotherly emotions and see her as something more?

This summer there will be another guest that the girls have not met yet. Beckham Michaelson is a guest that Charlotte and Caroline's parents have allowed to stay at their manor for the summer. He is slightly older than the rest of the guests. It is evident that Beckham becomes quite attracted to Charlotte, but she and her once childhood sweetheart are getting closer and closer.

What Charlotte does not know though is Beckham is much more powerfull then anyone expects (he is the one in the song). To get out of his curse Charlotte must complete his three impossible tasks with the help of her family and friends.

I'm going to start this RP before they know anything is fishy about Beckham, either of the twins start to fall in love with each other. If you would like to play Caroline, Beckham, or Charlotte's Childhood sweetheart I would really appreciate it if you could give a RP sample. Madeups are welcome just please give a reason why you are at the manor (like a friend, family, or staff member). Enjoy!

SPOILER!!: Charlotte Scarborough

Charlotte Louise Scarborough


Nicknames: Charlie
Age: 17
Year: Graduated
School: Hogwarts
House: Gryffindor

DOB: April 30
POB: England
Blood: Pure

Build: Slim / Athletic
Height: 5'6"
Hair: Dark Brown
Eyes: Brown

Background:
Charlotte was born to Gregory and Emily Scarborough. Before having Charlotte and Caroline they had a son but he died during birth so the girls never got to meet him. She has always felt that she is missing him, even though she never knew him.

Charlie is a twin, and just like any twins they have their arguments but overall they get along just fine. If anything they have that weird twin closeness that lets them know more about each other than anyone else does.

Charlotte was brought up in an extremely nice house hold. Money was never a problem and the Scarborough name is a well renound one. Gregory Scarborough has worked hard to make a name for himself and has accomplished his goal of doing so. He has many connections therefore knows many people. It is not odd for unfamilier people to Charlie be staying in her home. This is just one of the packages that comes along with her father.

Relationships:
When it comes to friends and most family, Charlie is very loyal. She puts them first no matter what. As stated before, Charlotte and Caroline has a very close relationship with her twin sister.

When it comes to friends her closest is Olivia. They have been friends ever since their first year at Hogwarts. Everybody always knew that when you saw one of them that the other was not far off.

Then there is James. James and Charlotte have been close for many years now. Their families became friends when they were both very young, so they have grown with each other. It is not odd for James to spend the summers at the Scarborough house. Charlotte would not goes as far as calling him a brotherly figure, but they are close friends.

Now onto actual relationships. Charlie does not have much experience in the guy field. That is not to say that she coudln't get a guy if she wanted. It was just that noramlly she was busy doing other things or hanging out with her friends. Wow this summer is going to be a wakeup call.


SPOILER!!: Tristan Ramsay

Tristan Ramsay


Nicknames: just Tristan
Age: 22
Year: Graduated
School: Hogwarts
House: Ravenclaw

DOB: October 21
POB: London
Blood: Pure

Build: Athletic
Height: 6'0"
Eyes: Blue
Hair: Brown

History:
Tristan is the godson of Gregory and Emily Scarborough. His mother and Emily grew up together and have stayed close since childhood. When his mother became pregnent it was around the same time that Emily was expecting a child as well (although her son never made it). When both women were with child at the same time they decided that both would become god parents to each other's children.

Tristan's parents are still alive today, but because of his close ties with the Scarborough family they have had much influence on him. Once he graduated from Hogwarts Gregory Scarborough made it his mission to train Tristan to work for him. Tristan spent many years under the instruction of Gregory Scarborough and has earned his respect.

At the moment Tristan is acting Estate Manager for the Scarboroughs. That means that while they are away (which is more often than not) the manor is in Tristan's care. This involves staying at the house to make sure that all of the guests are treated correctly. This also involves looking out for the Scarborough children while their parents are away.

Personality:
Tristan is a nice guy. He worked hard to earn his God-Family's respect and likes to keep it that way. He is very loyal to the Scarboroughs as well as tries very hard to look out for both Charlotte and Caroline.
