§ Camp Clearlake § Book 1: The Covert Con

by **Dreamer** Wed 14 Jul 2010, 12:04 am

Nestled in the snow-capped mountains of a scenic location lies a gorgeous aquamarine lake surrounded by lush evergreen forests. On the beaches of this lake, in its forests, and on its islands stand what appear to be deserted campgrounds. However, they're only empty to your eyes.
The trees whisper a bit more than they should, there are occasionally unnatural ripples in the lake, and every other second you could swear you hear tinkling laughter or the ping of an arrow hitting a bull's-eye. You can tell yourself it's all in your imagination, but there's no denying those shapes in the mist look disturbingly like translucent people.
Welcome to Camp Clearlake.

_________________________

Book 1: The Covert Con

A vampire conspiracy of Black Mages, workers of black magic, are growing in number, and have even planted mages in Camp Clearlake. Everyone is in danger -- if not from the Con, from themselves.

*About Camp Clearlake

Camp Clearlake is a camp for the undead. This includes ghosts, vampires, zombies, angels, phantoms, etc. There are three divisions of the camp: the Mermaid Division, the Pirate Division, and the Goddess Division. You mostly stay with your Division, but there are several camp-wide events, balls, gatherings, and festivals throughout the year. Camp Clearlake is a sleepaway camp, but since the campers are dead anyway, it runs year-round, although not everyone stays. If you were between the ages of twelve and nineteen when you died, you are eligible to attend Camp Clearlake.

*About The Divisions

The Goddess Division
The Goddess Division is the campsite in the forest. There are two Dorm Longhouses, one for boys and one for girls. Beside those is a Mess Hall, another longhouse. A fourth longhouse holds the counselors' quarters and GD (Goddess Division) offices. There are several wigwams around the area, known as Activity Huts. Activities offered in the GD are archery, combat, art, woodshop, hunting, music, metalshop, ecology, zoology, creative writing, and spellwork.
The Pirate Division
The Pirate Division is the campsite on the shore. Large houses on stilts, extending on boardwalks over the water, are the boys' and girls' dorms. A third stilted house is the Mess Hall, and a fourth is the counselors' quarters and PD offices. There are piers and lean-to's for activities. The activities offered in the PD are swimming, archery, combat, fishing, art, music, creative writing, spellwork, whittling, ecology, and astrology.
The Mermaid Division
The Mermaid Division is the campsite on the islands. On the smaller island, Luna, are the cabins housing the boys' and girls' dorms, the Mess Hall, and the counselors' quarters and MD offices. On the larger island, Tierra, are the activity gazebos and piers. The MD offers activities such as swimming, fishing, astrology, archery, art, music, creative writing, spellwork, diving, combat, and canoeing.

*About The Campers

Ghosts
Ghosts are from the Victorian era, and tend to be gothic and depressing. They can pass through solid objects at their will. They are near invisible in bright sunlight.
Vampires
Vampires do not sparkle in the sun or run at lightning speed. Sorry, Twilight fans. Vampires have pale skin, fangs, and red/amber/orange eyes. They aren't indestructable, but their injuries do heal extremely quickly, sometimes within seconds after receiving them. They have to hunt often and prefer to stay in the shade, and for that reason almost all vampire at Clearlake prefer to enroll in the GD. And yes, vampires can eat and sleep.
Zombies
Zombies are not man-eating beasts as has been widely accepted due to the illeged "zombie apocalypse." Zombies are undead corpses, perhaps missing an eye or arm or some skin here or there, but nothing overly gruesome. They might simply have sunken cheeks and waxy skin. They function as normal humans, with the exception of being able to detach and reattach their various body parts.
Angels
Angels have large, feathery wings that can vanish and reappear at the angel's will. Their halo appears only when their wings are out, or when they are performing magic. Angels look like humans in every sense when their wings are gone. There are two types of angels, dark angels and pure angels. Dark angels have black or gray wings and halos and tend to have more sinister or mischievous personalities, while pure angels have white wings and halos and tend to be selfless beacons of hope.
Phantoms
Phantoms are ghosts from other time periods besides the Victorian era. They could be anything--pirates, ninjas, soldiers, royalty, ordinary teenagers--and be from any point in history--from the times of the cave people, to the days of the American Revolution, to the 1960's, to present day. Like ghosts, they can pass through solid objects at will.

by **PeggySnow** Wed 14 Jul 2010, 3:14 pm

((This looks awesome! I sent you a form, by the way Silly

)

by **Dreamer** Wed 14 Jul 2010, 3:24 pm

((Yayy!! RP?))

by **PeggySnow** Wed 14 Jul 2010, 3:26 pm

((Sure! Would you like to do the honors of starting? Which charater shall you be using?))

by **Dreamer** Wed 14 Jul 2010, 3:42 pm

((I think I'll be using Blaze, so that means you can use Fawn. ^^ Okay, so it's the first day of the Summer Term at Clearlake. Let's just say Fawn is new. Nod

))

Blaze stepped out of the dorm with a smile, her feet crunching on leaves on the forest floor. She breathed in the smell of pine, closing her eyes to savor the current peace and silence. Within seconds, the new campers would arrive for the start of the Summer Term, and the hustle and bustle of summer at Camp Clearlake would begin.

by **PeggySnow** Wed 14 Jul 2010, 3:46 pm

((All righty Smile

))

Fawn looked up at the banner. It read, CAMP CLEARLAKE. She sighed. She had mixed feelings about being here. Well, you can't go back now.... she thought to herself. She stepped past the banner, and into Camp Clearwater territory. She actually found herself excited now.

by **Dreamer** Wed 14 Jul 2010, 4:52 pm

Blaze had just opened her eyes when several new arrivals, dragging heavy trunks behind them, appeared on the threshold of the camp. Some were clamoring loudly, others staring around in curiosity and excitement, others rushing forth to greet old friends.

by **PeggySnow** Wed 14 Jul 2010, 4:57 pm

((II have to leave now, but I will be here in maybe a half hour))

Fawn looked at a girl staring at her and the rest of the new arrivals. She looked friendly, and from her eyes, she too, was a vampire. She hurried over to the girl

by **Dreamer** Wed 14 Jul 2010, 5:22 pm

((Mmkay, I might be here, might not. I got kicked off the computer, so I'm on my brother's DS, xD ))

Blaze stared as another vampire, a new arrival, hurried towards her. Her expression remained unyielding, her arms crossed. She noticed one of the new arrival boys staring at her -- understandable, of course, seeing as she was wearing tight black jeans, knee-high black converse, and a tight black cami under a leather jacket, with her silky black hair up in a bun with bloodred chopsticks stuck in in an X -- and smirked. He had no chance. She turned her attention back to the vampire girl as she drew level with her.

((Sorry, I like describing my characters' appearences and outfits xD ))

by **PeggySnow** Wed 14 Jul 2010, 6:33 pm

((haha, no problem, so do I xD))

Fawn had reached the vampire girl. She decided to try and be friendly.
"Er, hi," she said. "My name's Fawn. I'm new here. What's your name?"

by **Dreamer** Wed 14 Jul 2010, 7:59 pm

"Blaze," she replied. "Blaze Knight. Nice to meet you, Fawn. Trust me, you'll love it here. I've been here year-round for 91 years and I've never gotten sick of the place."

by **PeggySnow** Wed 14 Jul 2010, 8:19 pm

Geez, 91 years? Fawn thought to herself. "Great! I plan to be here a while. Are there good," she paused. "Feeding spots here?"

by **Dreamer** Thu 15 Jul 2010, 12:31 am

Blaze smirked. "Nice, I liked the way you phrased that. Yeah, there's plenty of good hunting here. Also, it's nice and shady in the forest, so it's perfect for vampires. Ninety-nine percent of the vamps at Clearlake are in Goddess, so you're among family." She smiled.

by **PeggySnow** Thu 15 Jul 2010, 10:14 am

Fawn smiled. She liked Blaze. "Great! I've spent the last couple years or so trying to find the right spot, but, no luck," she smiled. "Excellent! It's always good to hear I'll be among fellow vampires,"

by **Dreamer** Thu 15 Jul 2010, 11:06 am

"Yes, I would assume so," said Blaze. "I was just going off to practice my combat--hence the outfit, usually I wear black cobweb-style dresses--but I could give you a camp tour if you'd like."

by **Pipeman** Thu 15 Jul 2010, 12:43 pm

(Role paly anymoe?)

by **Dreamer** Thu 15 Jul 2010, 12:56 pm

((Moi! Who and who?))

by **Pipeman** Thu 15 Jul 2010, 1:15 pm

(Charles and Alena?)

by **Dreamer** Thu 15 Jul 2010, 1:21 pm

((Sure! You start?

Nice signiture, btw. xD))

by **Pipeman** Thu 15 Jul 2010, 1:28 pm

(I hope it doesn't make everyone slow when loading pages I post on. Ok, I 'll start, but I don't know what I'm doing.)

Mr. Higgins stood at the end of a pier, where it was sunniest. He was barely visible to the naked eye, which was excellent: he might glare at the deceased without them noticing.
"Despicable creatures, they don't know what a nasty little century the 19th one was!" He grumbled with a nasty streak of irritation, glowering at the busy campers. "Stupid, stupid stupid. And here I am! A counselor! A counselor!" He almost shouted the last bit.

by **Dreamer** Thu 15 Jul 2010, 1:39 pm

((It's not for me, so it's fine. Nod

))

Alena spun about on the beach, her long, curly white-blonde hair twirling around her like a whirlpool. She was startled out of her serene reviere when Counselor Charles barked "A counselor!" on the pier behind her.

by **Pipeman** Thu 15 Jul 2010, 1:44 pm

Charles wished he could still spit. "Hello," he grimaced in what was supposed to be a kind smile at Alena. "Goody two shoes." he added under his breath.

by **Dreamer** Thu 15 Jul 2010, 1:49 pm

"Oh, hello Counselor Charles! What's wrong?" Alena asked, flying up onto the pier. Her wings disappeared as she landed beside him.

by **Pipeman** Thu 15 Jul 2010, 2:00 pm

Charles scowled at the angel. "Only . . . man's ignorance!" He squeaked, striving to restrain a terrible hate at humanity.
