[Games] 1920’s congrats (round 2)
Round 1: https://www.behindthename.com/bb/game/54871075 years have passed since round 1:——-(Skip this if you’re not including story elements)
Suggestions:
1. All deaths chosen by the dice have been a murder, the family must band together to find out who the killer, wether it’s a random criminal, a not-so-faithful servant, or even someone within the family.
2. One of the family members have gone missing. Thought to never be found again, but suddenly suspicious letters have been flooding in, asking for money, and gifts, for the return of this missing family member. Who is doing this? And what will the family decide to do?——-(Skip to here if not including story elements)
Deaths:
Roll a 10 sided dice for every family member, if they get 9 they die, if they are over 80, 10 also constituted as a death.For every couple, roll a 20 sided dice:
1-6: Relationship does not change
7-13: Couple progresses (E.g Engaged——> Married) if they are married or under 18 the couple does not change
14-18 The couple separates, through any way you like, even death(even if you have not rolled either of their deaths beforehand)
19-20 One or both of the partners takes on a lover
Generate a 20 sided dice for all singles aged 15 or older. If they are under 18, 12 or above is a significant other. If they are between 18 and 26, 7-13 is a significant other, 13-16 is an engagement, and 17-20 is a marriage. If they are 27 or older, 6-9 is a significant other, 10-14 Is an engagement, and 15-20 is a marriage. The ages of the spouses and fiancé/fiancée are up to you.For potential parents, role a 20 sided dice:
For a potential parents aged 18-23: 1-11 is no children, 12-16 is 1 child, 17-20 is 2 children.
For a potential parents aged 24-34: 1-6 is no children, 7-10 is 1 child, 11-15 is 2 children, 16-20 is 3 children.
For a potential parents aged 35-45: 1-9 is no children, 10-15 is 1 child, 16-18 is 2 children, 19-20 is 3 children.
For potential parents aged 45+: 1-14 is no children, 15-18 is 1 child, 19-20 is 2 children.
These children can be biological or adopted.
If you want, roll the dice again, odd number=boys and even number=girls
Add pets if you want to.Namebank:(Flynn, Sutton, Rocker, Churchman, Bayliss, Davenport, Darlington,

W [45] Lydia Grace (Devereux) BuckleyS [20] Stephen Alexander Buckley
- SO [22] Rebecca Ellen SilversteinD/S [14] Phoebe Charlotte Buckley / Julian Mark BuckleyStephen goes to medical school, University of Maryland just as his father had. His squeamish-ness is a thing of the past, though his love for research is undeniable. Much like his father, he has met a charming lady, though this one is in school to become a teacher. Her name is Rebecca Silverstein. At first, the girl avoided Stephen's advances, abhor to be sought after by an underclassmen. But eventually the little charmer won her over "as a friend" and the two began formal courtship little more than a month later.Phoebe has been loathe to learn, but she has abandoned some of her wildness and is shaping up into a right proper young lady, pretty like her mother. Julian still prefers his chess set to people, but his brazenness does not go unnoticed. In fact, he plans to put his boldness to use in the military. His parents are unaware of his plans, however.In the summer of last year, Lydia Grace went on a quiet walk in her lovely garden, overlooking her family land nearby. She cupped a bobbing blue hydrangea in her hand. And that was the last she was seen. Nathaniel came home from work that evening to find Phoebe's embroidery discarded in the living room. This was not unusual, but the fact that neither his daughter or his wife had greeted him was quite strange. Unprecedented, really.Nathaniel climbed the stairs to find Julian in his (and formerly Stephen's) bedroom, reading a book on naval history by the window. This, too, was not strange. He asked where Lydia Grace and Phoebe were. Julian said he thought Lydia was out in the garden. Or, at least she was a few moments ago. Hey, why was the sun so low in the sky? It was only lunchtime a few minutes ago, right?Nathaniel left his son, who followed as soon as he could locate a bookmark. The two men went out onto the back porch only to find Phoebe knelt near the hydrangeas with a crumpled note, sobbing.

S, 15: Alexander Simon BellamyUnder Larry's tutelage, Nate flourished into one of the sharpest architectural minds in the country. He presented his design for what was to be the tallest residential building in Chicago at the most prestigious architectural exhibition in the country. There, he met Anne Chevalier, of the New York Chevaliers, a wealthy family with roots in France, regaled for their philanthropy and patronage of the arts. Nate and Anne were introduced, Anne being highly impressed by the young architect's achievements. Their connection blossomed into romance, and they were married shortly after, moving into the penthouse atop the Anne Alice - which is what Nate named the newly constructed building.Their wedded bliss was, however, cut short. Soon after they were married, Rose - Larry's wife, and the mother of his children - died from a previously undiagnosed congenital heart anomaly. The Bellamy family went into mourning. They were all much affected, but it was Larry who took the news the hardest: Rose had been his muse and his inspiration ever since he first met her. Lydia, too, was heartbroken: their shared interest in music meant her mother and her were exceptionally close.

The note asked for money in return for Anthony who has recently gone missing 2 months after the birth of their last and final kid, MargaretMeg” A large sum of money too.Grace refuses to pay the money until another letter appears threatening Anthony. She quickly sends in the money, and Anthony returns six days later. The family cries sobs of relief. Anthony said the kidnapper was masked. Their voice was definitely a woman’s. Stray blonde wisps of hair sometimes escaped her mask. Grace suspected one of her jealous sisters. Who always were jealous of her rich husband (and deceased ex-husband) she had five sisters, four with blonde hair. Grace couldn't keep the thought of her mind that this could have to do something with Simon’s death
