"You've got one chance in five,
They're the odds you must beat,
If you want to survive,
So be fast on your feet.
Life is hard here,
Its the Devils back yard."



The place is London, the time, 1800's. A mysterious killer stalks the streets, murdering prostitutes with a surgeon's skill. A Doctor has gone into hiding, and a monster wanders the streets in his absence. A barber cut the throats of his customers, and makes the most delicious meat pies. A Detective, along with his faithful assistant, attempts to stop these crimes, and more. You may not decide the fate of the world, but you will impact one city where whatever can go wrong, will.

(Welcome! To be completely honest, I've wanted to do an rp where I could be Doctor Jekyll and Mr Hyde for some time now. But the topics where never right. So, I made one.
The rp is about the daily crimes and day to day conflict and struggle in the worlds most perfectly gothicly fictional city. As you can tell, this Rp is set in London, and is not very realistic. Of course, that doesn't mean I want Daemonic vampires running about. This Rp isn't about being unstoppable. Its more about having fun. A vampire or two is acceptable, but for the most part I want people. Some good character ideas are along the lines of fiction, such as Dorian Gray, Sherlock Holmes, Jack the Ripper (Even though he was real), and various others. Sure, its inspired by the League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, but only because I love the characters from that time line.

Almost forgot!

Rules!
1.) Keep it literate! You don't have to be amazing at spelling and grammar, but no * for actions, and no one liners. Please use " " for dialog and such forth. I like using Italics for thoughts but not demanded. Just an option.
2.) Little to no OOC please. I want it to be an rp, not a chat.
3.)Please Pm me your profiles.
4.) Make sure you read ALL the rules
5.)NO CYBERING! Romance is allowed, but if it goes to far, take it away or just stop.
6.)Put "Fleet Street" As the tittle of your pm to show that you read my rules.
7.) Don't kill off another character unless they give consent. But that doesn't mean you can't injure them.
8.) I know you have lives outside Gaia, but try to post once every few days or so. If you are going to be gone, post it OOC/ Let us know when you leave, so the rp can continue.
9.) No flaming. You don't like the topic, then go away. Don't waste my time.

Here's want I want for a profile. Make sure you PM them to me and I'll post them all so everyone can see who you are.

It was dark outside, not that it bothered Jekyll. The window that showed the street outside Henry's lab showed him that. He paid little attention to the sky and street while worked away at his calculations. Even since his discovery of the potion, he had searched for some sort of cure. He had made a fragile agreement with Hyde that he wouldn't use the cure and kill off the monster that had become a part of him, but would make it in case someone else, Heaven forbid, got their hands on his potion. Toiling away and scrawling down a number here, a basic few words there, he spoke little, grunting every now and again.
It wasn't until he had filled the page with his gibberish until he actually heard the wild rumbling in his stomach. He hadn't eaten in at least a day. He sighed, and pushed back his long gray and black hair. Henry hated to pause his work, but he didn't have much of a choice. He stood up from the table, and stretched his back and arms.
Perhaps the break will help me with the breakthrough I've been seeking. There has to be some sort of answer.

Doctor Jekyll went to the pantry and looked for something easy to eat. His servants were all sleeping by this time of night and had no desire to disturb them. He already put enough strain on them with his confusing and often hypocritical demands, that changed with the Doctor. He decided that one night of sound sleep wouldn't hurt.

Hungry, Jekyll? ... I hunger as well... But not for food...

Shut up! Shut up! I'm allowing you to live, isn't that enough?

The voice quieted down, and Jekyll figured his answer was yes. Slowly opening his eyes, a small smile creeped across his face. Jekyll was finally gaining control over Hyde. He picked up a knife, to cut the loaf of bread, when a shooting pain ran though him. A familiar and terrible feeling overcame him, and he fell to the floor. His eyes closed, and he let out a half scream, and the darkness overcame Jekyll...

Hyde opened his dark, menacing red eyes, and looked down at himself. His pants had not torn off completely, but where under considerable strain. The shirt's sleeves were nothing but rags now, exploding under the pressure of Hyde's large body. He tore the useless sleeves off, and stood up. Luckily, Jekyll wasn't wearing shoes. Hyde ran into the lab to grab his boots, his black cloak, and his cane, and set out for the evening.

I will try to restrain myself, old man. But I make no promises.

Hyde's insane and cruel laughter echoed down the nearly empty streets of London. Hyde would fin no fun here. He set off quickly to the Red Light District, where whores and bars and murders were commonplace.

Hyde prowled though the quiet streets. The moon was high in the sky but was only half full. His destination neared and the monster could barely contain its excitement. He smiled, and entered one of the bars. Chatter and dull music filled the air of the dark pub, and a few people turned to look at Edward. The large man moved to the bar and ordered the strongest drink they had. Hyde doubted that it would do anything to him. But he was still going to try. He'd take his drink, then go hunting.

She focused on the man looking at the golden pocket watch. Hmmm... Who are you waiting for? She dismisses the thought of making a quick snatch of the mans watch and continues with her previous mission. She was paid to steel a rare gem from a rival jewelers store. Or so that was the story her employer told her. She gets to the top of the building and looks around for hidden traps and finds none. Hmm... Some outer security... they must have used their expenses for the toys inside. She sees an air vent "bingo" She carefully opens the vent and crawls in closing it behind her Thank God I'm short laughing to herself she continues in search for the gem in question.

After a few close calls with the indoor traps she finally made it to the vault which held the gem Man of all times I wish I didn't have a bad sense of direction! before getting out of the vent she makes sure to lookout for security guards Ok now's the fun part She jumps out of the vent and sizes up the vault Hmmm "Ah... It's one of those" I better get it right the first time or the pigs will be on my butt before I can say good riddance "the things I do for money" She presses her ear by the lock and slowly figures out the code. "Gotcha" the door unlocks and opens reviling a blood colored gem that seemed to shin like a star in the dark. "wow..." She snaps out of her trance like state get back to work Jackie come on she brings out a spray can and sprays into the vault reviling a few trap lines.

Finally securing the gem in her bag she breaths a sigh of relief. She looks at her watch to see that half the night was wasted because of this mission MAN! I wanted to go to the pub before it got packed! "Oh well" She starts to walk forward a few steps and forgets about the guards. "Uh-oh" The guards started towards her "Time to go!" She runs from the guards and through the building careful not to fall over her self. She hears the guards catching up to her and decides to make her own exit. "Good thing I decided to carry bomb powder and a lighter with me today!" She set up the bomb powder by the wall and lit it. "Hope no ones on the other side" As soon as the guards found her the blast from the powder went off revealing a giant hole in the wall. "See you later pigs!" She runs out of the hole before the guards came to their senses. She was able to escape them but sadly lost track of where she was. She just kept running on the streets as far as her legs can take her till morning.

Hyde left the pub shortly after his drink. There was nothing worth following in the bar, and Hyde hated wasting his time. That was a trait he had in common with Jekyll, along with the poor left leg. Hyde left the bar, slightly limping. He watched a girl zoom past him running as fast as she could.

She's quick. Such potential. Perhaps she will be a worth hunt.
He smiled wide and began to follow the girl, when three men ran down the alley. One of them looked wrongly at Hyde, and practically ordered him to
say if he'd seen the girl.

"You there! Have you seen a small girl run by? She's a dirty thief!"


Sadly, Hyde had no tolerance for people who gave him an order, or even asking him the wrong question. Lashing out, he threw a punch at the first man, and caught him off guard, nailing the poor fool in the face. Blood gushed down the mans face and the other two recoiled in horror. Hyde grabbed the first thing he could, and empty wooden crate, and hurled it at the second man. He ducked and the box shattered behind him. However, Hyde used the distraction to charge the third man, and struck him in the chest with his cane. As the man doubled over, Hyde took the bottom, and very sharp, part, and stabbed the man though the head. As the second man recovered, he charged Hyde with a dagger. Hyde was not fat enough, and took the dagger in the arm. Snarling in anger and furry, and also caugh up in his blood lust, he grabbed the man, and twisted his neck. A sickening snap echoed down the now silent alley.

Hyde pulled the dagger out, and flexed his arm. He would be fine. But right now, he had prey to find. Leaving the corpses behind, he looked at the survivor, crying out of pain and horror and fear. Hyde smiled and moved on. The woman had to be found quickly.

Simon walks down a London alley covered in ancient brink. He is dressed in a fine black suit, but is curiously of a top hat. He caries with him a can, though he walks with no limp and doesn't need one. quietly, he hums to himself the notes to an old nursery rhyme.


...............Richard............................................i ******** hate Richard!!! That smug little self satisfied dandy pratt! I swear, if i could! oh, lord help me if i could!.......

But no, that's upsetting, i should think of the finer points of the evening, reflect on what a wonderful night last night was, instead of focusing on Mr. Swift. I should remember raucous nature that came over Howard once he had a few drinks in him, Gregory's endless stream of jokes and amusing anecdotes, and Matthews enchanting tales of the orient. I should think of poor Randolph and his illness that prevented him from attending the meeting. I do so hate it when anyone is sick, i shall make it a point of visiting the poor dear tomorrow. I should think of that beautiful, oh what was her name,. . . . . . ah yes, Helena. Sweet Helena, the name that would launch a thousand ships. She was far to young, and far to beautiful to be working as a mere waitress. And, oh, she WAS a lovely dancer! and the smell of her long blond hair! AH! sweet lilac! her body pressed to mine. Her voice, like a sonnet. the way she kissed. the way she cried. that cute little popping sound that her eyes made when i took them out. the way her lipstick matched her blood. that surprised look her corpse had. Ah yes, Helena. Sweet Helena. she was an angel, i think im in love.


Suddenly a young woman quickly runs by. Simon stands in the threshold of the alley, immersed in shadow, his eyes transfixed on her darting past him. A massive grin dawns on his face and his eyes light up like two ruby's. He licks his lips. He begins to peruse her then, walking briskly in the cool night air of Old Londontown. Cocking his head to the right, he quietly yet enthusiastically whispers to himself. . .


"Oh, my. she is lovely. . . . . . ."
