General plot: Child goes into the fantasy realm on an adventure.

What I want: Character development. I quite like the idea of this being a 4 person RP with a few others who would like to play other characters - like villians or other side characters (mad hatter, red queen vibe)

Characters: 1. Child around the age of 14 to 16 as main character - falls into this fantasy realm and becomes intertwined into this world's politics. WE REALLY NEED THIS CHARACTER!
2. Companion for main character it can be a pixie, a dog, another person, a fantasy creature, but nothing over powered! You are there to support and back up the main character so you two NEED to work as a team! if it means you argue in IC, so be it.
3. I will be the guardian of main character - fawn in Pans Lab. Cheshire cat or Mad hatter in AiW, Gandalf in LotR
4. Villains and something we can weave into the story - for instance a DRAGON!

The politics: Emanseria has a peaceful history compared to that of Earth's however war is brewing. Refugee's from the underdeveloped country to the South are flooding in and Emanseria cities cannot cope so officials are sending them out to farmlands where the refugee's are spreading horror stories and causing unrest in the country sides. Civilains fear for their lives and no one knows why. Emanseria is also struggling with civil squabbles. The Fae of the air and Elves are having immense political struggles over which race gets more parliamentary recognition and more power for use of magic. For the moment only simple spells are allowed to be used in cities out of those that belong to each race, if an individual or company would like to hire a mage of one of the races for large more complicated spells they need a permit.
Because of the unrest, civilians that have chosen a side are shunning and boycotting businesses that belong to a race and so mages - especially those in the medical field (Druid) - are either suffering or overwhelmed with the flow of business. Priests are using this opportunity to instil fear in their followers by lying about the other race. The Queen is battling to suppress the unrest however it will not be more than two years for the first death to occur.

Fae of the air: The fae are elegant in music, mechanics and magic. They were the discoverers of movements of the air and air magic. Magic is woven into their lives. Because they are so accustomed to the use of magic they can use magic to adjust their appearance, giving themselves wings (butterfly, dragonfly, bat, bird, skeletal(can only work for short distances - 50 meters 40 cm off the ground, and low heights- max height of a meter); antlers; and change their skin colour. They look like humans but are taller and slimmer and love fashion and shiny things.

They prefer to have their cities on the peaks of high mountains and in the clouds. They invented air ships that travel to air ports in the majority of cities. Air ships are the preferred form of transport for nobles and goods that need fast and smooth travel - food stuffs, toys manufactured by the fae.

Elves: Elves focus more on how beautiful the earth is, than how beautiful they can be. They will live in the tropics, forest, fields, and the feet of mountains: where ever there is fertile earth that is well, earthy and warm. They wear few clothes, especially not fashionable clothes, when an animal dies, they use their fur for clothes. They do not wear shoes or gloves. Like ever. They are short, strong and usually have brown curly hair and brown eyes.
They love circles (like hobbits) and animals, sometimes Elves will have several pets of many kinds. They respect animals and their surrounding environments.
They as a rule live below ground, in forests they have ground floors that extend into tree houses.
Elves are the creators of healing magic and elemental magic and insist upon the use of wands as magic is not a natural thing born into every race therefore it is separate to the human body.

Sources for ideas: Alice in Wonderland, Pans Labyrinth, Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter, green rider series by Kristen Britain, Eragon - Inheritence series by Christophert Paolini, Priestess of the White, Treasure Planet (about third of the way into the story)
