Welcome everyone! As you can see, this is a recruitment thread for my roleplay for Once Upon a Time. Once Upon a Time is a TV show that is on it's fourth season now starting this fall which I am exceptionally excited about;especially since they are bringing in characters from Frozen. However, the most remarkable thing about this roleplay is that you don't even have to know anything about the show to be able to participate!



The premise of the show itself is putting common fairy tale characters that we grew up knowing the stories of and putting them all in our modern day world. Of course there is lots of plots and deep story-writing that went into why and how this can work, but let's get into those details a bit later shall we?

Can you think of a storybook/fairytale character? Right now, go ahead and think of one. Got one? Good, now make a CS for them, and MAKE THEM YOUR OWN! If you want Cinderella, I don't want a CS that takes the Disney version word for word, I want some dark twists in their back stories here and there, or elaborate planning of another character that isn't even in their story. I will post a few examples of what I'm talking about below to help you understand what I mean.







Now, a little bit about the actual roleplay. As it's creator, I wanted to be able to allow ANYONE to be able to join in, whether you know anything about the show or not. I'm not taking the route the show took; yes I'm using a few plot devices but things have definitely already changed.

A few cannon characters are involved yes, I myself am playing Rumpelstiltskin, Red Riding Hood and Regina...all three of them being from the show but we also have the Cheshire Cat, Night, Dr. Jekyll/Hyde too, and they have nothing to do with the show, nor did they know much about it when they first joined but I have been able to keep them involved as main characters even, and mold the story around their characters instead of the main characters in the actual show.

I'm recruiting because we once started out with 14 different characters, and those numbers have substantially deminished due to player inactivity. I'm looking for players who can stay involved, or at least stay in touch if you are unable to post for a while. All I ask is that you keep me informed with what is going on.

As far as our story goes so far, (if you are familiar with the show) our characters have JUST undergone the curse and woke up in Storybrooke with their memories completely wiped of who they were in the enchanted forest, all except Regina who is the one who cast the curse. (If you haven't seen the show, there is an extensive explanation of what is going on in the OP which I will link below).

This is a PERFECT time for you to bring in your characters. With everyone going on about Storybrooke (the real world) without any knowledge that they are fairy tale characters, we can start up new relationships, friendships and rivalries, and once the curse breaks (and we all know it will) then you shall have your chance at bringing out their fairy-tale counterpart.

I know this all seems a bit confusing, but I urge you to read through the IC posts to get a slight grasp of whats going on; or if you don't want to do that much reading, I can always direct you to Netflix, the first two seasons are on there, and the third is on Hulu if you REALLY get hooked :)

I'm just going to post the link to my roleplay here and direct you there. Take a look, and if you like what you see or if you have ANY questions you can either contact me via PM or post in the thread. I would love to welcome new characters into this RP, just be willing to communicate and everything will be fine :)

Just a few suggestions, we could use a Snow White, Prince Charming, Cora (The Queen of Hearts) and I'd be happy to give Red/Ruby to someone else.

I'd be interested in doing something like this, but I might not have time... I'll see if I can fit it in!

we move at an incredibly fast pace Diminuendo, like, 3 or 4 posts a day kind of fast, and we collaborate A LOT, so this might be just a bit too fast-paced for you.
