M is for Nottingham? Join In

Join In!

As soon as you are familiar with the M is forNottingham? drama, you are encouraged to choose one of the unclaimed characters (or create your own) and join the ongoing play.

Once your character is established, you may choose any site that appeals to you and begin creating a part of the plot, discussing the Mystery, and searching for clues!

How to Participate:

1. Choose an unclaimed Character from the existing list.

A list of some possible characters is a good place to start. You can go to the list, select a character that is unclaimed, and e-mail Marjorie Luesebrink (M.D. Coverley) with your choice. If you wish to make your own identifying .gif, you are welcome to send that as an attachment to the e-mail. As soon as you have registered as a character, you can join the other sleuths.

2. Create a Character of your own.

If you wish to create a character of your own, please e-mail Marjorie Luesebrink (M.D. Coverley, Robin Hood), telling her the name of the persona and answering the following questions. Your character will appear on the character list along with the identifying .gif that you send.

-- cut and paste the following questions into an e-mail, answer them to your satisfaction, and e-mail your new character to Marjorie Luesebrink --

Who are you?
(Name and history, short physical description)

What brought you to Nottingham to search for a murder victim?
(what *drew* you or attracted you to the scene)

What are your *goals* for the investigation?
(...)

What are your deepest *fears* about what might happen to you?
(very important to know this if you're having a mystery)

What do you think happened to The Book?

3. Begin playing the role of your character and writing into the collaborative drama.

You are encouraged to discuss the clues you have found, write about your experiences in the virtual space, reflect on the rumors about the "death of the Book," and build narrative sequences!
