IOptimist: Just a minor problem with the appearances, it seems like you copypasted those on either side of the CS, Fantasy and Reality generally look different from one another. Plus that means Storm is mentioned on Gail's side. I'm not accepting it yet since it's late and I might not have caught something potentially questionable but it looks good. Plus mentioning that the protagonist has a bisexual aunt, a gay uncle (or father, maybe) and a gay character on the way from Rune, it seems like we're already building a setting here I think. Also Pennsylvania xD


She can still be a member of a British family, if you wish. I could easily change where she grew up, without changing the character in any significant way. I am used to Philadelphia, Kansas City, Orlando and Kansas City, having lived in each of those cities. Would you prefer one of them? If not, I know the feel of London, because I watch way to much British television. I have also been to Colorado, Canada, California and Texas, if that helps, though I never lived in those places. (I assume your British, from your spelling of the word color, but I could be wrong on that.)

I fixed up the appearance, making them quite different. I hope that this helps.

Optimist: Thanks for the update there. No need to change the setting, I'm glad you included one actually. Abigail is accepted! Also I'm not English, I just think colour looks correct phonetically. And it's fancy xD

Toaw: Yeah, it'd be 2014. I don't really see much of a reason to go back or forward since it'd likely be a maximum of a two decade difference. I'm curious about Joseph's age though. If he had a child whilst in the navy I'd assume he had that child in his twenties. I just want to know how old do you think the protagonist was when he died? Another question is are you going to use that narrator thing as a pirate? It'd be cool to have a pirate narrator simply because it's delightfully unfitting. No sarcasm.

I don't see much reason to hold him back though, he's really fleshed out and clearly well thought out so Joseph is accepted! And yes, I must always have an exclamation point when a character is accepted.

Done and Done.
I was going for a more...eh, steampunk feel for her fantasy side. Is that alright?

I can finally get to work on that little project of mine now that I'm done with everything else :D

I would say that he has been dead for a few years, and you are correct that he had a child in his twenties, or even early thirties I just didn't want to stump anyone who would want to play the mother, and to limit them that much. I'm a very conservative person when it comes to these things, but I should probably go back and mention that he has been deceased for the past few years in my CS? No? Either way thank you, I wasn't entirely sure about him towards the end, at least during the Bio. As for the narrator part I don't know, I was more or less thinking about abandoning the idea, and playing as someone who she meets a long the way, in some random or crazy encounter. Maybe I'm the first person she meets, and I whisk her away on the start of her new adventure? Either way I've typed a lot, and I don't like typing a lot when I'm not writing an awesome story, and RP stuff so I think I'm going to stop now XD. Also one last thing, are we going to be able to have our own little world of sort that she stumbles onto. Considering that the characters are so different I think it would fit the story. Maybe as she travels through these worlds she brings these characters along as the big bad destroys their worlds slowly one by one. (I know it is a bit cliche, but hey why not). Ok so I'm really done now I promise. Unless I think of something...nope ok you're good.

Edit: I'm pretty sure there is plenty of room :D

And the pirate ship of your character is like some multi-dimensional transporter thing!
that, or Connie could build you one and attach it to the ship :D
if it doesn't blow up

Honestly though, I was a bit hesitant about giving Connie a whole 'steampunk' feel. I'm honestly not too familiar with wonderland type things xD

Since supposedly the story borrows influences from multiple fantasy-settings, not just Alice in Wonderland and Tolkien's works, I think having some crazy, steampunk-thingymadoodads is just fine. ^^

That would be something wouldn't it? Well if Closet Nerds plans don't get totally ruined from the idea, or likes the concept to much to ignore than I think my ship basically being that transporter I guess wouldn't be that bad of an idea. I was more or less thinking of tears in 'space in time' kind of thing, but your idea works too. As for the steam punk I like the idea (even though my opinion means nothing T_T)

Well, maybe my thingymadoodad could make a tear in space possible, but due to whatever circumstances, we need a giant ship to pass through it, because reasons.

It should be unless closet nerds plans on me being the only one in the role play, which I would be flattered, but it is unlikely :P

Well I fell behind just a bit didn't I?

Rune: Ashlyn is a good character so she's accepted. I'm going to have to have MC realize she has a crush on her subconsciously if we're going to explore that in the RP, which I fully intend to even if you don't want to. But because of that it might be a bit subtle at first during the RP, you think you can pull that off?

Toaw: I was thinking that Joseph would be the first one to instill the love of fantasy in MC's childhood so thematically that would work for Greybeard to be the first one met. Though I think I'm going to have the badness sicked on her from the start, sudden and without warning much like the cancer itself. Greybeard can possibly save her from it and whisk her off to fantasy land.

About the multi-world thing, it seems like it would complicate things too much in an RP that is already quite complicated because I'm basically making you all make two characters and maintain a sense of symbolism while I have to piece it all together. It's a nice idea and I might use it for my next RP but for this I'm not sure if it's the right fit. However, I really like that you're thinking of some big, plot-changing things right now, what else you got?

Amrita & Zordon: Yes, you can join. But as a warning because I need to put this in the opening post, the fantasy aspect is going to be inspired by things like the Alice in Wonderland, thus colourful and possibly a bit childish. Wherever the badness happens though, there would be a sweeping change in setting to resemble descriptions of any creepy place in Lord of the Rings. But welcome to both of you! I hope you get some inspiration from this RP and help us to write some awesome stuff here.

So, guys I've been mulling around the idea of the main character a little bit and I wanted to know if you want her to be herself in the dream thus being lucid, being a character in her own dream thus being not lucid or start out as herself and get more and more fantasy throughout the story?
