Hey all!
So I've been playing around with this idea for a coffee shop RP for a while now. From my experience, it's a great and easy way to meet new people and have a fun time playing characters.
Now as to why this is in the Serious RP section over the Fun RP, I'd like for people to RP with some amount of seriousness and in regards to the setting for the RP. I'm not saying you cannot be wacky, just not too out there (ex: no superpowers, game enders, etc.). As far as story goes, ultimately, it's up to the players to decide where the story goes! The players could decide to meet up later for a night on the town, they could meet up for a game, they could even do a RP in a RP! It's all up to you.
With all the details out of the way, on to characters. There is no limit to how many people can play, but I do ask that if you don't plan on participating regularly that you at least create an exit for your character (no spontaneously disappearing characters!). Also, since the starting location is a business, people are welcome to play as an employee or manager (rules for specific roles are below).
If you plan on joining the RP please fill out this short Character Sheet:

Specific Roles
Some players may opt to take up a specific role in the story. Specific roles do have a limited number of available slots and it is first come first serve! If you opt to play a specific role, please provide information on what role you would like to play after filling out your character sheet. As of now, these are the specific roles available to players (depending on where the story goes, the list will be updated/ changed to suit the story):
Barista (3-4 slots available):
Your average, everyday employee for Autumn Roast. The barista's duty is to prepare drinks and entertain customers. Typically the Barista is the first person customers will meet upon entering the shop and the people customers will use to judge the establishment. Teamwork is a must to be a barista! Baristas typically stay behind the counter during his/ her shift except when cleaning or on break.
Manager (1 slot available):
The manager runs the Autumn Roast and watches over the employees to make sure they are performing his/ her duties. Unlike the baristas, the manager can freely roam the establishment and interact with customers on a more personal level. While the manager does have to power to remove employees, removing a player from his/ her position without just cause will be overruled by acting moderator.
TIP! Happy employees make happy customers!
Emergency Services (up to 5 slots available):
How would you like to be the one protecting the people? Feel free to pick any type of emergency service worker (officer, paramedic, etc.) but be warned! You may be called to duty rather suddenly!
NOTE: Just because you were called to respond to a situation doesn't mean your RP is over! Who knows, the story may follow you!
Any player not following a specific role is considered a customer or citizen and is not bound to perform specific tasks. Also, some specific roles can become customers/ citizens (baristas when their shift ends for example)!
Setting
The story begins in a modern day coffee shop in a rural town. More details will follow in the first post!
