Welcome to The Hobbit with the Dragon Tattoo roleplay. This roleplay is heavily based on the lore of a parody universe based on The Hobbit movies, that bears the same name - The Hobbit with the Dragon Tattoo. Or, at least that's the name of the first movie.
There are a bunch of canon characters (canon for the parody universe), that are based on the canon Hobbit characters. The profiles for them shall be posted in the next 1-2 days, and will be open for claim by you, fellow roleplayers.
The lore for the universe shall also be posted in the next 1-3 days.
Let us all have fun!

Time: Sometime in the future
Place: Pandora
"Big picture" background:
From the words of Arthur Dent:
"This here is Pandora. A colourful planet on the edge of the universe. So colourful, that the main item of it's trade export is your PC desktop wallpapers. This is the very place you get them from."
... "And apart from Super Grandpa, Pandora is populated by a whole bunch of different idiots with 'caved in' brains, or without brains at all.
For example, the local Tailed Blue-Skinned Aborigines. From the first glance, they are peaceful hippies, kind of 'let's become flowers and grass, let's become water and bushes', but as soon the main force of the Pandorian military left for the War, these goddamn 'pacifists' suddenly attacked us, killed all the remaining soldiers, and destroyed to hell all Earth technology. All spaceships, helicopters, communication devices... Even houses on wheels, electric kettles, toilets, even telephones! They threw us back to practically the Stone Age. We're left with only swords and hoes, but you can't even chop firewood with those thing! So in the result, we can't get out from Pandora, nor contact the outside world. These Aborigines have basically got us onto our knees and force us to crawl back to Mother Nature, but we didn't even pollute the Pandorian Nature yet."
"Also, the other local inhabitants, Umapa Loomaps, those beasts, they burn our villages and gobble our chocolates! They steal our chocolates and doughnuts, and they take it from women and children, beasts... Nothing holy."
"And the amount of humans on Pandora is also very huge. For the past hundred years there was a distant Intergalactic Vacation Center, there is a huge bunch of humans stuck here. Those are Planetary Engineers and Terraformers, who were adjusting Pandora to the standards of Mother Earth. Well, ozone holes, greenhouse effect, everything like at home. Also some suspicious extrimals, who came here for their suspicious sport activities... Also some Glamours, kids of some billionaires, sent by their parents to Pandora so that they don't get in the way... As well as some guy like me, who got stranded here by absolute accident.
Known settlements:
Super Sin City - The only know town where the Blue-Skinned Aborigines didn't destroy technology yet. Population - over 10,000
Glamorous Village - The main village of the glamours, located in an isolated river valley between high mountains. Accessible only by 3 paths. Population - under 500
District Number 12, local reservation for those who are over 1.3 meters high - small settlement of short people, Arthur's home. Population - under 500
Hallucinogen Forest - home to the Glamorous Rainbow Bandits, a huge drug dealing area, home of the 48th Ronan. Population - unknown, presumably under 1,000
The Holey Mountain - A great Coal Mine in the past, a Wonka Chocolate Storage now. The main goods stored there are chocolate coins in gold foil wrapping. They are easily mistaken for the god coins stored there as well, that are the Wonka sales profits.
Ruins of the local Jurassic Park - Ruins of an old Jurassic Park, abandoned after the local dinosaurs went extinct. Now a building site for Willy Wonka's new Chocolate Factory. Also the housing of Dark Efirrr
Elizabeth Town - A small human town on the lake that is under the protection of Elizabeth Man... Or is it? Population - under 1,000
RACES:
Human - the most common race, many of them are short, but some can be tall. They usually don't have special powers, save for some individuals.
X-man - very rare, these men (or women) are usually very tall. Almost all X-men on Pandora have lost their superpowers. X-men are known to be the biggest trouble starters on Pandora
Glamour - a minority on Pandora, absolutely all of them are gays - with a few exceptions of lesbians, but women among this group is a very rare sight. They usually have strange fetishes.
Umpa Loompa - there can be literally swarms of them, they are mostly unintelligent and blindly follow the orders of their leaders.
