Sounds good!
See the thing with the opera house guys, is that it's a catch all. We have our main characters, but the supporting cast, the random ballet rats, the amazing singers, the lovers and the fighters are all just as important.
The reason the opera house isn't used as much these days, is BECAUSE we've got no one there. All of our plots are centered somewhere other than Paris. Not that it's a problem, hell no it's not, we've expanded our universe.
Me, at the moment, only have Jesse James, who is the head of basically, maintenance. He's a handy man and a janitor, and you can't keep an opera house going with a janitor XD

And, if someone is good at persuasion, they might be able to convince a Daae to come back and sing for the Populaire again (I still have Christian, after all).

I kinda wanna make Miranda Priestly as a Carlotta-type character, trying to take over the opera house for fashionista purposes... XD
And this is why John should sleep at night instead of staying up and watching The Devil Wears Prada.

Hey. I know the superhero plot is on everyone's mind, but we do have a Christine now! All the Carlotta character ideas sound awesome, and we still need a Raoul figure...
Besides which, Dracula is going to be a patron of the opera, but at a price- no follow-ups on who keeps sucking blood from the dancers (do we still have those on here?)

Hee, good point -- idek if we have any dancers, and we totally need at least one astonishingly amazing ballerina or something, but there's at least one vampiric balletomane over here (I couldn't help it, I love that fan theory) who will be peeved about Dracula taking sips off the performers. Not enough to stand up to him about it, but he'll draft a strongly worded letter about it.

I've got Hazel.
She's a singer, but she very much could become part of the dancers, she's been taking lessons from Isa for like days now.
She's a sweet girl, but she's smart. Might work in the plot.

...oh, yeah. We kinda do have a shortage of dancers, don't we? :/
Well, whoever wants to can certainly start to establish themselves in the opera house. With how enthusiastic they are about it, I know Mozart and Beethoven wouldn't waste any time in getting things up and running again.

I know I shouldn't make any new characters...but Metal!Carlotta would be terrifying.

Oh my god, yes. And what if she was a different genre, like, she's a black metal singer so all of her vocals really ARE screaming and growls and stuff? That would just be...haaaaah. Or hell, make metal!Carlotta a guy but keep the genre, heh. ...I almost want this one. Ugh, I don't need anymore, either. <_<

Beef!
And hee, there is a lot of animosity between some forms of metal. I'm not even sure what a Black Metal Carlotta would be- she wouldn't be a viking, so I guess she'd have to be some sort of demon incarnated on Earth? Or something?
It might not work in the plot, but it sure is amusing.

Oh my god. Oh my god. How did I not know about this? This is perfect! (Also, since he killed Carlotta, he must be either Claude Rains or Robert Englund. It's something to ponder...)
As far as plot goes, does anyone have ideas? I know the managers are redecorating, and Christine's just sitting in her room. Is there any other drama that can be kicked up at the Opera House?

Well I can have Hazel come in and talk to Christine and tell her how beautiful and wonderful she thinks she is after she hears her sing.
No drama, but it's something.

I'm leaning toward the Phantom in that one being Destler, but then, I'm not entirely familiar with the Rains version.
I've been seriously trying to resist making metal!Carlotta. I don't need any more characters. xD
(And I already have metalMeg, so that'd be kind of greedy of me. <_<)
