So I had an idea….

Basically its a magic island on which a character has gotten trapped on. They find a magic bottle and put a message in it and throw it into the sea. Anyone who reads the message gets sent to that island and gets trapped on it.

The characters are from different time periods and time passes normally on the island, meaning they die. The only twist is that everytime someone new finds the bottle and is transported to the island, all the previous residents come back to life with all their memories. The very first person who got trapped on the island is sick of it and wants to stay either d*ad or stay alive.

The most recent person to come on the island was transported with whatever they were holding/wearing, this time it was the modern smartphone and a bag with all their textbooks. This character is someone who studied to become a shipwright and knows a lot about ships.

I know I want at least 5 characters but I can add more spots if people are interested.

CHARACTERS:

The First (Probably of Greek roots, they named the island and were a gladiator or warrior type of person): @StarkSpangledMayflower (Cato Oliver) (1st to arrive on the island)

The Peasant (Not specifically from a medieval era, can be from any era where there are very clear class divisions. This will be a female because this person knows how to sew, cook, and knows how to gather edible plants): @Tired-but-passionate (Victoria) (5th to arrive on the island)

The Witch (Someone from the medieval ages, someone who was considered a witch and knows a lot about plants, rocks, and nature, can enchant the weapons): @Zoe-the-GM (Luna)

The Prince/ss (The Royal heir to a kingdom long forgotten. This person can speak a few languages and is skilled at archery. They think highly of themselves and are still learning that they need to so things themselves on this island): @RiverTheSeawing (Yukime Kobayashi) (3rd to arrive on the island)

The Smith (Someone who knows a lot about blacksmithing and is the one who built most of the huts and buildings on Ogygia, doesn't like enchanting their weapons): @knightinadream (Rafael Stocia)

The Captain (The person who most recently got ahold of the bottle and are very used to their modern amenities. This person does spend a lot of time on boats and knows how to build/commandeer one, but they would still prefer living in an apartment with a steady WiFi connection): @Relsey (Bennett Wiliams) (6th to arrive on the island)

@StarkSpangledMayflower_Mad_Elder

Yes! Its like someone pressed a refresh button and everything goes back to the way it was, the only things thay stay the same are any buildings and houses the characters built and the memories of said characters

@Zoe-the-GM

Julia stealthily crawled underneath the shelf, then hid in the far corner. She hugged her legs tightly, buried her head into her knees, and kept her eyes closed, like there was glue holding them shut. Staying as still as possible, she listened to the enviroment, while controlling her corse breath, wanting to gasp for air. Many minutes of silence passed by, so she ended up relaxing a little. Still not wanting to move an inch, she continued to hide, hoping someone will save her. The door creaks open, making Julia squeeze herself tighter, listening to soft foot steps walk around the room. She swears she felt piercing eyes glaring at her, but if that were the case, they would've viciously shouted something by now. The foot steps grew slightly louder, hence the person is much closer…
"Mom? Are you alright?"
Tears immediately pour out of Julia's eyes, when she heard the sweet little voice of her her daughter's.
"Come in, quick." Julia whispered, then pulled her little girl into her arms. "Shh, stay quiet, everything will be okay."
Her seven year old daughter obeyed, and stayed quiet, although she began to tear up too.

(This is kind of short, but I can write much more when I would have the time to.)

@RiverTheSeawing

(Yeah. Here you go:

Storm ran through the silver coated halls, panting heavily. She could hear footsteps thundering behind her as she tried her best to escape her pursuer. "You're doing fine," she said to herself, "you can outrun them." The hall seemed unending, at this pace she would never find the turn she needed to get out. She kept hope despite the fact that her pursuers were catching up on her and her situation was starting to seem bleak. She didn't see a way out yet, other than a risky jump to a small, broken window; it wasn't much, but it would have to do. She crossed her fingers and tried the jump, but fell backwards just as she was about to get out and broke her back. She had plenty of open wounds, a broken back and an army after her; it was over for her. In mere minutes, she was faced by a guard holding a weapon to her head. Just as she was about to die, she heard a strident roar and the guard disappeared; this wasn't how it was supposed to go. Thanks to whatever made that sound, she was able to run free; however, she wouldn't get away tonight. Just as she was about to leave, she looked back to see darkness swallowing the halls; she tried to escape, but the door was suddenly locked. Soon enough, she was swallowed by the darkness and floated in it like it was a liquid; it had killed her. A sound similar to a bell rang out; Storm woke in her bedroom, coldly sweating and breathing heavily. "Oh," she said to herself, "it was just a dream." She felt relieved that it was just a dream, but then a feeling of uncertainty washed over her; she heard the same roar as from the dream. Suddenly, she passed out on the spot; when she woke, she was no longer in her bedroom.

"Hey honey." A women wearing a dress came into the room. "Hi mom," she said to her, "morning already." Her mom nodded and asked her to come into the living room. "Give me one second," she replied, "let me properly wake up first." Her mom nodded and left the room, most likely to make breakfast. Right after she left, Storm's eyes flashed black; whatever this was, it wasn't Storm.)

(Sorry if it's short.)

@RiverTheSeawing

Name/any nicknames: Yukime Kobayashi
Age: 19
Gender/pronouns: She/Her
Sexuality: Bi
Personality: Yukime has a little bit of an ego, but doesn't lack self awareness. She is impatient and can be rude at times; she's also exhausted of the start over thing, even though she's only been there for two now. Despite her exhaustion with it, she does appreciate the pretty much eternal youth. She wants to avoid dying, as she died early during her coming here and the Smith coming here. She finds the idea of advancing civilization intriguing and wishes she could see it, but also wants to get back to her family. She doesn't quite realize that time on the island and time everywhere else line up, so she doesn't know her family is long dead.
Appearance: Yukime is a 5' 2" tall Asian girl with somewhat tanned skin. She has medium length, wavy silver hair, which ends at her shoulders. The tips and highlights of her hair look frost blue in the right lighting, which is usually the moonlight. She has large, oval-shaped cornflower blue eyes, which seem to sparkle in the moonlight. Her teeth are a little crooked, though are shiny white.
Role: Princess
How they found the bottle: The bottle washed up in a pond near the castle and was found by her brother, who thought it was for her.
Any background info: Yukime Kobayashi is the lost princess of the Ushinawareta kingdom, a lost kingdom in Asia (which I made up). Before she ended up on the island, she lived with her mother, Chikako Kobayashi, her father, Daichi Kobayashi and her younger brother, Akihiko Kobayashi. She practiced Archery, as well as her normal princess stuff, and had kept it a secret from everyone except her brother. She and her brother got along like no other siblings in the kingdom, but used to get in trouble in their younger years. At the time of her disappearance, her parents were in their 50s and her brother was 16.
Outfits: Yukime's main outfit is a ripped princess dress. It is white with peasant sleeves and is ripped so that it ends just before her knees. Along with the dress, this outfit consists of black heel boots, black finger-less gloves and a fox brooch made of silver.
Yukime also owns a white jumpsuit and a jacket made with wolf fur (it's not that she doesn't care about animals, it's that faux fur didn't exist back then).
Hobbies/talents: Yukime is good at archery and can speak Japanese, Korean and English (She picked English up on the island).
Weaknesses: Yukime is clumsy when it comes to walking or running and falls down a lot, she also doesn't have very thick skin.
Other: When Yukime ended up on the island, she brought her bow, a quiver full of arrows and her tiara (which she was wearing at the time) there.
(Hope she's good.)

@Zoe-the-GM

Name/any nicknames: Luna
Age: 23
Gender/pronouns: Female she/her
Sexuality: Homosexual
Personality: Mellow and mysterious. She's introverted and was just so used to being a hermit. She used to be super serious when she first arrived, but loosened up by alot, because she has all of the time in the world to do what she wants, so she's now more sarcastic.
Appearance: She's 5'3, and has long, wavy, brunette hair, and amber eyes. She's skinny af, probably because she barely eats. She usually wears thin materials, preferably grey or black, but that's not important.
Role: The Witch
How they found the bottle: Luna's secretive ex, snitched to the guards, and told them that Luna's a witch. During her trial, when they tied her up and pushed her into the lake, she saw a bottle floating by her… If she could just reach it, she knew the soldiers would pull her out right afterwards. She struggled to swim much, but still managed to, "Witch! She is a witch!" They shouted. When they were startled that was her chance to splash some water and scare them more by speaking in tongue, without them noticing, she grabbed the bottlend and opened it behind her back to let the paper slip out. When the guards grabbed hold of her, that was when she read the letter.

(Imagine what it was like on their end XD, "The Devil helped her get away!" Lol.)

Any background info: Luna inherited her abilities, and most of her ancestors were either burned or hunted down. She tried to stay hidden most of her life, and never had many friends. When she entered her late teens, she decided to work for a brewery, and made some close friends, who later on learned about her secrets, these friends were trustworthy of course. At 19 she met a gardener who was slightly younger then her, and would collect berries and herbs all the time. She never really understood why she kept wanting to hang out with Hayley, until their first kiss.

1.When she arrived in Ogygia, super confused and emotional about what just happened, she met "the first." Years go by, and she was killed by a pack of rabid wolves.
2.Awoke where she first arrived in Ogygia, confused, and the first was most likely pissed. They met the peasant, and by now she has learned this world's pattern. To avoid what happened last time, she found a cure for rabies, but this time she committed suicide to see if everything will restart again.
3.Correct, the world did start again, then she met the princess.
4.Met the smith, died by age.
5.Tired of doing this again, and she has been introduced to the most unique individual ever, who spoke about alot of gibberish.

Hobbies/talents: Stargazing, gardening, collecting minerals, alchemy, mixology, reading, writting, researching, and exploring Ogygia.
Weaknesses: Loud noises, negative energy, and large bodies of water.
Other: OC link (It's not finished yet.)

@Zoe-the-GM

(Quick question, what time period/place is the Smith from?)

(Idk, but I would think like the 18-19th centry or so.)

@Relsey-TheElder

(Sorry it's so long, I had an idea and decided to roll with it and it just kinda kept on rolling Let me know if there is anything I need to change. I read that it was a modern kid and thought, there is nothing more modern than a jack of all trades so here he is, my poor chaotic child, this is also very unorganized I apologize it's like 1 am)
Name/any nicknames: Bennett Wiliams, or Bee.
Age: 21
Gender/pronouns: Male, He/ Him
Sexuality: Questioning
Personality: Bee is a lot, very extra and expressive when present. He talks not just with his hands but his whole body. He loves cuddles and physical affection, his friends call him a koala because he’ll pick a person and cling to them. He has random spurts of interest and passion so he’s picked up many random skills. If left on his own probably start making something with the materials around him. The duality of this boy is a lot, his mind just likes to go everywhere and sometimes the rest of him can’t keep up so he’ll just space out for hours or take very long naps. He finds methodical tasks very calming. While his interest in boats and sailing originated from a 2 year Pirate obsession, the hobby stuck because of how calming he finds the ocean and sailing to be. He’s very selectively smart, he can tell you everything you need to know about a boat, how to sail it, the basic structure, how to navigate using nothing but the sky above you. Ask him about marine life and he’d tell you that dolphins are fish. He enjoys being crafty but the results aren’t always the best looking, his art is subpar at best though the poor boy try's. Very soft, he’s quite patient with other people because he knows what it’s like to be snapped at. He’ll let you talk his ear off for hours, he may not catch every single word but he’ll try his darndest even if he ends up spacing out 10 minutes in. He tends to make impuls decisions, and then stick to them because he hates giving up on things. He’s just a ball of chaos really. It takes a lot to make him serious so when he is people tend to take notice, he usually acts like a softie so one tends to notice just how tall he is nor how strong unless he is being serious, then it is Very Obvious and Very intimidating. Sometimes he’s not actually serious but just spaced out and those times his friends find it extremely funny how people react to his presence.
Appearance: Tall around 5’11’’ and fairly muscular, but not bulky, it’s muscle built for agility, he was a dancer and while he no longer pursues professionally he likes to keep the looks of one, sailing is also an activity that requires a good amount of strength and being a strong swimmer is basically a requirement. He has warm brown doe eyes and light reddish brown hair that’s getting a bit long. It’s very floofy, and a bit wavy. He has a Grecian nose, his upper lip is just slightly larger than his lower (Though no one but himself seems to be able to see this) He is quite tan due to his large amount of time outdoors, he also has a few freckles around his face. He doesn’t particularly enjoy wearing shoes and is very picky about his foot wear
Role: The Captain
How they found the bottle: He was walking home the long way along the beach when he found it. He's an impulsive guy didn't even think twice before popping it open and reading the letter.
Any background info: Bennet and his mom have been on their own since the beginning. His Mother started from the bottom as a single teen mom and clawed her way into the music industry and is now a very well known artist and quite successful. Bee has the raw talent for music and he’s been trained but he’s scared of the industry it’s self, a fear his mother indirectly gave him with her warnings about the brutal life of being in the public eye. He’s learned a few instruments, though he can’t claim to be good at anything but guitar and piano. He’s dabbled in just about everything, some things he was quite good at but dropped because of his fear of the entertainment industry such as dance and theater. You can still catch him learning dance routines off of YouTube and choreographing his own when he finds the official ones to be unsatisfactory. He has a very rich Baritone voice but an extensive upper range as he grew up singing his mothers music and if you were to ask him to sing he would probably sing one of her songs. He is a bit spoiled, these days His mom feels bad that he didn’t have a lot as a kid so when her career took off when he was 15 she started to splurge on him a bit.
Outfits: Bennet has an eye for subtle fashion, he likes to look good but not flashy. There was that phase around 16 when he died his hair a bunch of different colors, but other than that he tends to keep it simple and classy. Tucked in loose t-shirts, slacks or jeans, He loves his accessories though, He has his ears pierced and wears mostly small hoops. He is currently very into K pop fashion so Drop and chain earrings. He loves a good pair of sunglasses. He loves wearing hats, he has a growing collection of them. If there isn’t a hat on his head there's probably a bandanna esc headband keeping the too long strands out of his face.
Hobbies/talents: I’ve already mentioned most of the important ones. He’s a Pretty good dancer, Singer and he plays a few instruments but piano and Guitar are his best. Sailing and bassic carpentry though he’s far from an expert in the latter category. He also really likes cleaning, he finds it quite calming and his mom hates it so it works out.
Weaknesses: He really hates being yelled at, and conflict in general, he crys if he hears himself yell, he just hates it. He’s really easily tricked, and used. He get’s betrayed and used a lot. It makes me sad. Very trusting, to trusting. He just kinda refuses to think people would willingly hurt other people despite all the evidence pointing in that direction. Very stubborn, the boy hates conflict so if he actually puts his foot down on something he is not moving. He doesn’t like disappointing people, and works a bit too hard to please people.
Other: He studied as a shipwright after he graduated High school he just finished that up and got his licence ( I dunno if that's actually a thing I feel like it should be a thing I'm to lazy to google it right now) He was just enrolled into a regular collage by his mother, and is currently major less getting all of his generals done. He listens to a bit of everything music wise, and I do mean everything, From k-pop to Irish folk, throw in some Latin music, I really do mean everything. He has a soft spot for his moms music though, especially her older music and the songs that were deemed unfit for release. He and his mom live in a very nice Oceanside mansion with a private beach, because why not.

@knightinadream group

Name: Rafael Stocia
Age: 26
Gender/pronouns: Male (He/Him)
Sexuality: Omnisexual
Personality: Despite having a resting intimidating face, Rafael is the complete opposite. He is a very warm and selfless person. A workaholic at heart, he enjoys working and will even work late into the evening. He is persistent in what he does whether that is building or making something or helping somebody. While he may be clueless in most cases, he is a quick leaner and smart at what he does. Though he may not admit it, he is a feeler kind of guy. If he doesn't know what to do when someone is upset or not feeling well, the first thing Rafael will do is hug them. When in doubt, hug, that's what he does.
Appearance: Rafael is a large and buff guy. He stands at six foot four and has a rectangular body shape. His eyes are a medium brown shade. He has dark brown hair that he keeps parted to the left side. It gets messy very easily so he doesn't put much effort into making it look nice. His skin is a warm beige shade that gets tan pretty quickly. There are a few small scars on his arms from when he was a child. On the lower left side of his nose, he has a little birthmark.
Role: The Smith
How they found the bottle: One day, Rafael was strolling along a stream as he was walking home. The bottle was stuck because of a broken branch in the water. Curiously, he picked it up, but only opened it when he was in his home.
Any background info: Rafael comes from a long line of blacksmiths. Because his family couldn't afford school, his father taught him and his younger brother about blacksmithing. He moved to another village in the Transylvania region when he was seventeen to work for a nobleman. While living there, he also managed to learn carpentry. From then on, he lived and made a wide range of things such as weapons, tools, and furniture. He met and fell in love with a woman named Adela. When asking for her hand in marriage, her father, who was a teacher, disapproved of him. So Rafael went out and did tried to prove himself by learning how to read and write on his own. Though he struggled for months, he managed to learn, although he still has troubles with reading and writing. Much to his luck, Adela's father finally approved of him. Rafael and Adela married a few months later. He also made them a small house in his free time. Two years later, they had a baby boy. Not long after, his wife passed away due to labor complications. Rafael was in despair for a long time, but he tried to push it away by looking after their child and going to work.
Outfits: Typically Rafael wears a white long sleeve linen shirt along with black breeches, light-weight stokings, and shoes. He also has some shirts where he cut off the sleeves and lowered the neckline just in case he was too hot while working; or he just doesn't wear a shirt. Then he also has gloves which he only wears while in the workshop.
Hobbies/talents: Well for starters, he is talented in blacksmithing and carpentry. He has a great memory and can learn things pretty quickly when given the motivation. Rafael can run long distance for a decent amount of time. Learning is a hobby for him, though he does get confused at new things. Aside from work, he likes to walk around, preferably with someone else. Stargazing and swimming are also some other things he likes to do. And most importantly, he enjoys spending time with others.
Weaknesses: He has a lot of unchecked emotions that he just tends to push away. Whether that is because he doesn't know how to deal with them or he is focused on helping someone else, he bottles them up. Rafael also gets really into what he is working on to the point where he can overexhaust himself. Sometimes he will get frustrated and angry whenever he is interrupted, but he doesn't mean it.
Other: Rafael has the habit of cracking his knuckles, typically after finishing up something. Sometimes he also sings to himself when no one is around. He also tends to make little gifts for the others on the island; usually things like rings or whatever they may need.
