We're in desperate need of a new jointy, so I figured I should just whip one up and see if it generates any interest.
Backstory: The tenants of the second floor of an apartment building may have all once lived their lives as independently of each other as possible, but soon their lives start converging when the mysterious murder of a notoriously nasty resident puts them all under investigation.
Each person involved picks a room number, and then creates a profile for each character who lives in that room. At least one of your characters must have a strong motive and opportunity to have committed the murder.
But this story is not a murder mystery per se. Don't worry about the investigation: I'm going to do what I can to stay on top of that. What I want is for the murder itself to somehow start forcing these characters to start interacting with each other, whether it be slowly and subtly or like a speeding anvil. I want this story to basically talk about how death changes the status quo for all these people.
If you're interested, don't be afraid to start posting your characters. We'll need their names, ages, room numbers, personalities and physical descriptions and motives.
