Enid pulled her bags from the carriage that had brought her to her father's estate in a little valley nearby Scotland's shores. Going inside as the carriage pulled away she gawked at the huge mansion that her father had bought, "What in the world..." She said softly entering the house. Looking around she didn't see any of her mother's belongings anywhere, A frown crossed soft red lips as she walked upstairs, "Hello? Father? Brothers?" she called out and sighed softly placing her bags in a room that had a name plate with her name on it.
It was a nice little room, She jumped some as a knock came to the door. Turning she saw her father, he was a man about in his mid-forties with a graying short slicked back black hairdo and wearing a business suit. She wondered where he got the money for all this... Glancing she stared at his cold greedy beady black eyes, He smiled at her wickedly. "Its good to see you daughter", He walked over taking her into his arms, "You look just like your mother.".
She wrinkled her nose at the stench of alcohol on his breath pushing away from him, "Father what is all this? Where in the old did you get all the money for this?" She gestured around to the room and basically everything that was in it and such. He chuckled licking his lips cracked with age, "Well my dear i sold all of your mother's belongings and most of yours". She gasped turning on him with rage in her eyes, "What?! How could you!!! Those were not for you to sale!!". Her father laughed some and grinned, "Oh but dear until you are married everything that is yours is mine including that precious horse of yours", She gasped "You didn't!!" He grinned laughing, "No not yet but maybe i will if you don't behave".
Enid clenched her jaws together glaring at her father, "What exactly did you call me home for? To see how corrupt you are?". Her father narrowed his eyes at her and slapped her across the face, "Don't talk to your father in such a way you little brat". Her eyes widened as she placed a hand on the reddening mark on her cheek tears welling up in her eyes. He chuckled turning and walking out of her room, "in the morning you will be expected to come to my study with your brothers for a meeting".
He exited shutting the door behind him and locking it. She ran to the door jiggling the handle and sighed softly as she found it to be locked, walking over to her bed that was covered in pure pink and lacy blankets comforters and the like, she frowned at the ugliness of it sitting down on it and sighed heavily. "What am i going to do auntie..." she said softly wishing her Aunt Maribelle had come with her. Laying back on her bed, her long curling waves of red hair fanning out around her as she stared up at the canopy above her bed closing her eyes she slowly fell asleep.
Early the next morning[/size]
Yawning as she slowly woke up hearing the door to her bedroom jiggling and being banged open, She sat up immediately alarmed only to be relieved when she saw her 2nd oldest brother standing in the doorway, "Papa told me to come get you, I didn't know if you were awake or not" He shrugged some before waiting for her to get up. She was still in her clothing from yesterday a simple dress of blue coloring and the needed petticoats and the like, A softer sigh came from her as she stretched yawning and stares at him as she slid off the bed and headed out the door closing it behind her.
Soon they were joined in the large hallway by her 1st older brother as they headed to their father's study. Knocking and being admitted into the study the boys walked over to stand behind their father whom was sitting at his desk, An older man with shoulder length graying red hair who was somewhat a burly man muscular and buff was sitting in on of the chairs in front of the big oak desk. Enid's brow rose somewhat as the man stood and took her hand kissing the top his gray and red beard and mustache tickling her skin, "A pleasure to meet you, you must be Enid my future daughter-in-law, I am Lord McLean"
Enid's eyes widened as a shocked look came to her face letting her hand drop to her side as she turned those wide oceanic blue eyes to her father as if expecting some kind of explanation. He gestured for her to sit, having a sit in one of the big leather arm chairs, "Well my dear Enid, It has come to the attention of your brothers and I that you are 21 and unwed, As well as living in a house of unwed men. We have decided that it wouldn't do for your reputation for people to know that so formally you are engaged to Lord McLean's youngest son. He will be arriving in a few days to met you and then we will begin the wedding plans".
Enid's mouth dropped open as her face turned somewhat red with not embarrassment but utter most outrage, Standing up immediately "What?! Have you gone entirely insane!?!? I refuse to marry a complete stranger! I will not do it! You hear me?!" Her hands clenched the front of her dress as her somewhat frail looking body shook, "How could you just arrange this without even telling me before hand?! I am not your plaything!!". "Enid! that's enough! You know by law that it is in a woman's father's hands to see her married and If I say you shall marry Lord McLean's youngest son then you will do so!".
She stared at her father in despairing outrage before rushing out of his study and out of the house down to the stables where her horse was being kept. Going through the stables she found him, Ebony, her beautiful black Frisian stallion, He whinnied at her as she wrapped her arms around his neck and breathed in his scent, "Oh ebony.. what am i to do.. father will never listen to me! he is too greedy.." She whispered to her horse. A young stable hand heard her agonized whispering to the horse and popped up whispering something in Enid's ear, A light came to her eyes and she smiled at the young stable hand thanking him for his help. She would run away tonight before McLean's son got here, If She wouldn't be wed if they couldn't find her could she?
Returning to the house she went up to her room and packed a few important things into two lightweight bags and hid them under her bed. That night when her father locked up her room she dropped her bags out the window to the stable hand down below who was going to help her escape, then using the many sheets and blankets she tied them up together and used them to climb out of her window. Grabbing her bags she ran to the stables and strapped them to Ebony before getting up onto the saddle and sneaking out after all the lights in the house had been turned out.
Setting Ebony into a gallop, she disappeared in the night beginning her long trek across the Scottish hills and into the so-called bad scots area that her father warned her about when she was little and they use to take trips to Scotland to visit family friends from long ago. The hills where the riff-raff brigands lived.

If you wish to join this rp please come here to talk about it. I am looking for certain people to play certain major roles before i can begin adding in the minor roles.
The Main jist of the RP is about a young Irish woman named Enid whose family moved to Scotland and her father is trying to make a name for himself. back during like the 1800's is running away from her family and name because her father and elder brothers are greedy gamblers who want to marry her off to one of the Scottish lord's young son who is her age (21) because they want to be able to get money off of her. She runs away from home and this RP consists of all the events that happen after that. Of course the beginning of the role play will be played out as well so we can see her reactions and everything that goes on to lead her to runaway deeply into the Scottish country side where her father tries to keep her out of there because of 'Scottish riff-raff'.
Roles that I am looking for are: Enid's Father: Mean, greedy, selfish, devious. Enids 1st older brother: A mini version of her father. Enids 2nd older brother: Quiet, A follower, does what he is told with little concern for his sister. Enid's Betrothed: some what arrogant, manly, slight selfish, prideful but handsome and daring. Betrothed's father: Kind, caring but the usual traits of a man. Betrothed's older sister: Kind, loving, has a deep concern for her brother and her brother's betrothed's happiness and is worried about how things are going. These are the major roles so far. Other major and minor roles will come up as we go along and they are needed.
