Roleplay: Reunions Dark Summer

On a Steampunk Earth, during the early 20's, the wealthy Grandfather invites his entire family for a reunion on his private island. However, this family had been dysfunctional and has skeletons in their closets. Also, everyone has a minor power that gives them an edge over their peers, ranging from Hammer Space to metal-bending to Shapeshifting. Although none of these powers are combat-related, everyone finds their powers no stranger.

Were skeletons in the closet mentioned? Every single person has one, and every one of them has a reason to hide it.

Reunions: Dark Summer, or just Reunions, is an on-going Steampunk Intrigue Play By Post Roleplay by Vyctorian. Although it is in its beginning stage, it has exceeded five hundred posts.

"Remember, just cause you're blood doesn't mean you're family..."

All character tropes should be here.
