Um Hey guys I just thought this would be a cool idea! So yeah. It's humanstuck and I was thinking it would take place some where in the state of New York. The town would be called Alternia, and the hospital would be named Our Lady Of Alternia Hospital. There would be all kinds of Units (sections of the hospital set to cater to certain things: Child Birth, Mental Illness, Cancer, ect) so feel free to have your character be in there for any reason (Insanity included)! No matter how many units their are there are, in each unit, 4 floors patients are on and each floor contains 50 rooms. You look up at the oddly shaped hospital, either being a patient, visitor, or resident staff member, you have seen this hospital time and time again. The tan outside and the dark blue roof, the nicely kept plants and flowers outside, the small gardens connected to each unit for the patients to walk around in. You walk in and see several patients and visitors milling about, you find the whole sight peaceful.
Wards (Tell me some unit names, I don't really know. Each ward will be assigned a letter) Maternity: A Pediatrics: B Psychiatric: C Oncology (Cancer): D Geriatrics (Elderly): E Detox: F
Patient Application: Name: Age: (No age restrictions) Appearance: (Remember, It's humanstuck!) Diagnosis: Room: (For example lets just say the unit your in is unit B. You're on floor 4 in room 13, B413) Personality: Background:
Staff Application Name: Age: (At least over 21) Appearance: Position: (Doctor, Nurse, Intern, ect.) Specialist?: Unit: Personality: Background:
Visitor Application Name: Age: (No restrictions) Appearance: Patient you're visiting: (You can add this later!) Personality: Background:
Characters: Kids John Dave Rose (Taken By: timedfirebrand) Jade Jane Dirk Roxy Jake
Trolls: Karkat Aradia Tavros Sollux Nepeta Kanaya Terezi Vriska Equius (Reserved by: ingeniousHarlequin) Gamzee Eridan Feferi Kanrki Damara Rufioh Mituna Meulin Porrim Latula Aranea Horuss Kurloz Cronus Meenah
Other: Signless Handmaid Summoner Psionic Disciple Dolorosa Redglare Mindfang Darkleer Grand Highblood Dualscar Condesce Calliope Caliborn WV PM AR WQ WK Spades Slick Diamonds Droog Hearts Boxcars Clubs Duce Doc Scratch Lord English Snowman Davesprite Jadesprite Tavrisprite Fefetasprite ARquiusprite Erisolsprite Casey
Inform me if I missed a character that you want, I'll add them to the list. Keep as sfw as possible, if your character is in there for something like a mental disorder we'll just include a warning at the beginning of the ic thread, okay? Also Human names are not required, you may want to give the Ancestors names, give Casey a last name, and give the other characters under others section names though. If you want your character to be in a relationship with another please ask them! Post-Pre Scratch characters being siblings/related is not required but excepted, Ancestors being related to their decedents/pre-scratch selves is also related! If no one minds I'll snatch up Sollux unless someone else really wants to be him! If someone does I'll be glad to switch over to Feferi!

Name: Rose Lalonde Age: 17 Appearance: Rose is fairly tall and lanky, with sandy blonde hair in a bob cut and purple eyes that have been called unnatural often enough. She usually wears a black headband and simple clothing, although nowadays she can be seen in a common hospital gown. Her headband's still around, though. She wouldn't be herself without it. Diagnosis: Mental health issues, hears multiple voices Room: C304 Personality: Rose, even with a mental illness, is still snark incarnate. She can be a little silly at times, while at others she is completely serious about everything she says and does. Fairly often, she stares off into nothingness, or speaks aloud as if she's holding a conversation with an invisible person. During those times, she is completely sincere about whatever she might say, which can be pretty rare with her. Background: Rose was a neglected child, left alone while her mother either worked or drank. She was left only with both the wizard books her mother collected, and books on eldritch horrors that she chose for herself. At school she kept to herself for the most part, and connected to people through the Internet. As time went on, she began creating creatures in her head based on her books. They continued to occupy her mind, taking up permanent residence as voices in her head. Her mother didn't notice this until Rose was sixteen, at which point she was sent into the hospital. She's been here ever since, with the voices, which she now calls "horrorterrors," never showing signs of dissipating.

(( Whoops I had way too much fun looking up all the medical stuff... And writing up that background omfg))
Name: Karkat Vantas
Age: 19
Appearance: His appearance can be best described as though he has been fighting a war inside and out. His bloodshot auburn eyes are sunken in and have dark circles from exhaustion. Though often seen wearing a messy black wig, most of his hair has fallen out from chemotherapy. Since receiving his diagnosis, he has lost weight substantially, his black sweatshirt and gray sweatpants seeming to be very big on him.
Diagnosis: Karkat suffers from Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia which is a cancer that creates abnormal white blood cells, that unlike an acute form takes much longer to progress but grows at a still increased rate. His cancer causes him to bleed and bruise easily, suffer from frequent headaches and infections, and prevalent symptoms of iron deficiency.
Room: D432
Personality: Karkat is consistently angry, and is more than willing the mouth the nurses off as they try to help him. His anger mostly covers up the front of his fear of his own blood, and his growing feeling of hopelessness. He has tendencies of completely freaking out and going on long rants even with no one listening. With the few close friends and the family he had he had, Karkat could show a caring nature towards them.
Background: Karkat was always a sickly child, being born premature and always being sick with various infections and diseases. He lived with his Pastor father; his mother a school teacher, and his older brother working at a Non Profit Charity a long way from home. His family never could afford much with all of Karkat's various medical bills and the health insurance not fully covering every aliment the boy suffered. His relationship with his father is strained because of Karkat's general distaste for his Father's job and the religion as a whole. School was an aspect of life that came in periods of wellness in his life, getting decent marks but his social skills lacked significantly, his anger always being a problem along with being bossy when it came to games and discussions. When he reached High School, Karkat took on the role of Class President, mostly due to pity votes and no one else willing to run. He took his job seriously and made him enjoy school a bit more, but near the end of his junior year, his health took a turn for the worse. After collapsing on stage addressing his class, he was taken to the hospital where with a few tests gave him his diagnosis. The last few months he spent in school were miserable, his title as president lost to the vice president, his body in constant pain from beginning chemotherapy, and the rumors and gossiping behind his back. His Senior year was a joke, spending only about 4 months in school and the rest in cyber school, but still took the diploma. With no developed plans for college or any future, Karkat moved full time into the hospital.

Name: Sollux Captor
Age: 21
Appearance: Sollux isn’t the most interesting – dark, dirty blond hair parted evenly across his forehead with two longer strips hanging in front of his ears, pale skin. He's around 6'2, weighing in at 170 lbs - horribly underweight - and generally pretty average looking. Until he takes off his ever-present 3-D style glasses, that is, and one can see the heterochromia. His right eye is an almost sky blue, while his left is a rusty brown. He also has a stud in his tongue, which is partially responsible for his lisp, as well as snakebites and an ear piercing. It took quite a bit of convincing to get the hospital staff to allow him to keep his piercings in.
Diagnosis: Bipolar I Disorder > manic or mixed episodes that last at least seven days > depressive episodes, typically lasting at least two weeks > may flip at the drop of a pin if the change in situation is drastic enough
When in a maniac state, Sollux is constantly moving or working on something, rarely eating or sleeping unless forced to. He will not take any form of medication. There have been four instances of him removing the IV that nourishes and keeps him at a stable state of mind when he is like this, once accidental and three intentional. When in a depressive state, Sollux refuses to eat, choosing to spend most of his time in his bed. Again, medication will be refused, but it can be injected directly into his IV to keep him from falling lower.
~>Trends for Sollux in his two states - Maniac: > extremely irritable mood, agitation, or jumpiness > talking very fast, jumping from one idea to another > easily distracted > increas in goal-directed activities > restlessness > little to no sleep for several days in a row without feeling tired > unrealistic belief in his abilities > impulsive behaviour > high-risk behaviour (specifically alcohol use) > suicide attempts
~>Trends for Sollux in his two states - Depressive: > extended periods of feeling worried or empty > isolation from friends and family > loss of interest > feeling tired or slowed down > having problems concentrating, remembering, and making decisions > irritability > change in eating and sleeping habits > abuse of alcohol > dependence on sleeping pills > attempting suicide
~>Prescriptions: 1. Dormicum (Midazolam -> Benzodiazepine. Taken until Lithium has an effect.) > relieves any symptoms of anxiety, agitation, or insomnia. > fast-acting sedatives that work within 30 minutes to an hour. > high addictive potential
2. Lithium (prescribed three days prior to the start of this roleplay) > highly effective for treating mania and bipolar depression. > takes from one to two weeks to reach its full effect. > side effects of lithium --Weight gain --Drowsiness --Weakness or fatigue --Stomach pain --Nausea, vertigo
Room: C222
Personality: Sollux's personality depends on his mood. He has two distinct ones to speak of, nicknamed Red and Blue by the man himself, and one that treads the line; an old friend called it Purple, as it is a mix of both Sollux's Red and Blue selves.
Blue is Sollux in a depressive state, and he is difficult to deal with. He is irritable, but less hostile and more likely to shut up and curl up on the bed rather than verbally attack anyone. He spends most of his time sleeping when like this, refusing to move. No one can convince him to do anything in this state, generally.
Red is Sollux in a maniac state. He is a nightmare to deal with. Any little thing could set him off, causing an immediate, hostile reaction. This could be anything from a twenty minute rant to simply flipping the bird at whoever was annoying him. He will mumble to himself as he works, although the codes he produces do little more than force anything clicked on to go to a single site.
Background: Sollux lived a fairly normal life for the first portion of his life. A father with a well paying job enabled him to pursue his main love in life: programming. He was rather good at it when he was thirteen, creating viruses and sending them off in chain emails and the like. At fourteen, Sollux was misdiagnosed with depression, and as such was put on Citalopram, an antidepressant, for three years. In those three years his bipolarism truly took off, as mania can be triggered by these types of drugs. The most obvious effects were severe weight loss, insomnia, trembling, anxiety, and major headaches. Some were so bad that he would have to go home and lay down for hours in the dark. (Some of the less obvious side effects were anorgasmia and dilated pupils, considering he was never without his glasses.) His piercingly were gotten on a whim during a maniac phase at eighteen. He had been in and out of hospitals for a few years due to this mess up. At seventeen he started to smoke and drink, anything to take the edge off of his mood swings. When that didn't work as planned, he attempted suicide twice, about a year between the two, the latter occurring at age nineteen. He dropped out of college, living at home for six months prior to his second attempt. He's been at OLOA for nearly two now, and the suicide watch had eased up around fourteen months after the IV incidents ceased.
