Great to have this site back! So, as the title suggests, I had originally planned to fire this up closer to Christmas time, but since the site was down I couldn't. Regardless, I still really want to do this even though it's a little late. I'm a fan of keeping Interest Checks short and sweet, so that's what I'm gonna do.

The story begins the week of Christmas as Mrs. Claus calls for help at the North Pole, saying that Christmas will be unable to go on this year due to a catastrophe that has spun out of control, and Santa is in dire condition. Players will play a cast of fabled and legendary characters (i.e, the Grim Reaper, Sandman, etc.) who respond to Mrs. Claus' plea to discover just what has happened to Santa, and if they can do anything to ensure that Christmas comes this year.

So that's the basic premise of what's going to be happening. It'll be a quest-styled RP, but only a few of the "major" objectives are predetermined. There will be plenty of room for player-based arcs and such, or sidequests, if you want to call them that. I plan to also keep a quest log in the OOC with the current statuses on them, to make things a bit more organized and our options clearer.

Also, if this goes well, I'll probably turn it into an episodic series of roleplays, a Christmas Conundrum being "Ep. 1".

This peaking anyone's interest so far?

Sounds fun to me, why not. Bet I can't call dibs on a character though? ;)

This sounds so fresh and exciting ^w^. Can players play personifications of holidays like April Fools or New Year, or will they be limited to fable characters?

Sadly, I've got my hands full D: but this looks awesome, so have a bump and a wonderful mornight!

Personifications of holidays is a great idea! I'd love that.

But to answer your question, cthulu, I don't mind calling characters, except for Dracula or Father Time, since they already have a place in the story.

I was joking but awesome, I'll think about which I want but if we're doing personifications of holidays I'd like to do Día de Muertos or take Sand man :)

ASDFJKL personifications of holidays. I am so tempted ;A;

How fast do you think this RP is going to go ^^? I might try to apply for April Fools. I just <3 stuff like this.

Can't really tell ya Fox, sorry. I do my best as a GM to keep the plots and arcs moving, but I usually don't use big time restraints. Like I said though, if it takes off, I'll make it Episodic, and since it's Quest-styled it'll be easy to drop in, or leave, for that matter.

And cthulu, either one of those would be awesome :).

Alright, thanks for the info (^w^)/

Bumpity bump

Name: Dia Muertos
Holiday: Dia de los muertos.
Age: 3000 Years old.
Birthday: November 2nd.
Gender: Female.
Ability/ies: WIP
Draws power from: Memories and parties.
Relationship to the Claus’: She's been frequently seen arguing with Mr. Claus but any that know the pair know its more like sibling rivalry than anything malicious and while the pair do not really mix outside of holiday get togethers and emergencies neither has an issue with the other. Dia always sends Mr. Clause sugar skulls and he sends her a little something at Christmas.
History: WIP
Personality: Once people get passed the make-up and the outfit usually they find Dia quite fun, misunderstood these days she was never about fearing the dead but celebrating them in the most ostentatious way possible! She loves parties and good times, she's almost like that mischievous little sister you wish you had. Reminding you that now and again it's okay to let your hair down and act silly and have a bit of fun! She can be quick to lose her temper -maybe its all the sugar- but she is just as quick to forgive and forget.

Edit: Just a small/temp CS so you get the idea of what I'm aiming at :)

I would be interested if your still looking (fairy godmother or old man winter would be among my first thoughts of characters)

I most certainly am still looking. Either one of your ideas would work. I'll have a template in the OOC (Which will be up this evening), but it's simply for reference, feel free to come up with your own sheet.

Speaking of, both characters sound great so far cthulu. Looking forward to seeing them played.

OOC is up!
