[OOC] The Fairies Adventure

[Crimson Flame]

A Fairy is a magical creature you may have read about in storybooks. They take the form of winged humanoids with pointed ears. Contrary to popular belief, Fairies are not all female. They are naturally small, but can use magic to change their size and become the size of a human if needed. All fairies have magical powers. The most common types of fairies control one of the six elements of Fire, Water, Earth, Air, Light, and Darkness. There are also a few fairies with unique types of magic.

While fairies like to travel, and can be found anywhere, they reside in the feywilds. A realm exclusively for fairies and some other creatures… It is rare for non fairies to enter the Feywilds. Typically the only way to do so would be with an invitation from a fairy.

Every year, the fairies hold a festival for themselves. The location of the festival changes depending on who’s hosting it. This year it is hosted by Prince Sky Sparkledust, in Feydellia. The largest and central kingdom in the Feywilds. This year's Fairy Festival was supposed to be a celebration of all things pink and sparkly. Sweets were being baked, events were being planned, and fun was on the way. However, trouble was brewing in the Feywilds. There were reports of fairies going missing. There were some that thought the festivities should be canceled until the problem was solved, but Sky was not concerned. Canceling the festivities would only cause people to panic more.

But a day into festival, tragedy struck. Several fairies were turned to stone. Including Sky’s parents… Now, the prince has gathered a ragtag group of fairies to help him find the cause of this, and devise an antidote for the petrified fairies.

Feywilds Locations

Feydellia: Kingdom of the Light Fairies. The largest and central kingdom in the Feywilds. A cute and whimsical kingdom on top clouds. The clouds colors can be changed, but the royal family really likes pink. There is always a rainbow in the sky.

Pompfey: Kingdom of the Fire Fairies. A kingdom out in the middle of the desert. The kingdom itself has greco-roman architecture, and the center of the kingdom is a large active volcano.

Transfeyvania: The Kingdom of Dark Fairies. The place is filled with Gothic victorian architecture. Where most of the Feywilds are vibrant and colorful, Transfeyvania is dark and muted. It is always overcast in this kingdom.

Luminous Forest: A forest that is known for bioluminescent plant life. Particularly the mushrooms.

Lumina: Hidden in the luminous forest is the kingdom of the Earth fairies. The town is surrounded by towering trees and glowing mushrooms. The fairies make their homes within the trees. Various creatures roam the streets freely.

Feydale: Kingdom of the Air Fairies. A kingdom located high in the sky, floating above everyone else. The kingdom has a steampunk aesthetic.

Fairy Falls: A river outside the luminous forest with a spectacular waterful.

The Fey Tropics: A coastal kingdom overlooking the Feywilds sea. Home of the Water Fairies, and has a tropical aesthetic. Sunny days and palm trees abound!

The Minty Mountains: A range of snow covered mountains. Many water fairies who specialize in Ice magic make their home here.

If you want to add any other locations, just ask.

Dropping my WIP here to work more on later.

Name: Dragon Harkness
Age: Late teen
Gender: Male

Magic: Dragon is a fairy who specializes in Dark magic. Contrary to the modern belief that dark magic is the root of all things evil in the world, Dragons magic is darkness in its more literal sense. He has the ability to create and manipulate absolute darkness that cannot be penetrated by light, and use it either to form dark constructs or to cloak areas in order to remove others' sense of sight while within said area. The latter is more useful in confined spaces.

Appearance

Appearance: Dragon is a tiny Fairy, as the norm suggest. However, he has the ability to grow in size to roughly 5'8" in height if needed. He has a quite lean physique from an active lifestyle, and he carries himself with elegance and poise. As the sun doesn't really shine almost ever in his homeland, he's developed quite pale skin as a result which is sensitive to sunburns. His hair is pale blonde and kept short, and he has friendly bright red eyes. His wings are partially transluscent in places, giving them an ornate look. They are also black at the base which gradually fade out into a prominent red towards the ends.

Clothing-wise, Dragon dresses to impress. Considering he is the son of one of the dukes of Transfeyvania, he is held to a certain standard. Said standard consists of formal-looking attire which leaves little room for comfort. His outfits consists mostly of garments ranging from White to Black, or any of the shades between. The fey-folk of Transfeyvania doesn't care much for vibrant colors, and as such they limit them to accent colors instead, to go with the bases. In Dragons case, this shows in his red and black hairclip, as it matches his wings.

Personality: A Bright and friendly guy, Dragon gives off a casual vibe to him which makes it seem like he doesn't have a care in the world. He enjoys listening to others' stories, and never hesitates to lend a shoulder to cry on or a listening ear. Being sociable is part of his duties as a noble, after all.

He carries himself with elegance and class, befitting of someone of his background. He values nobility and the role they play in keeping the kingdoms together, and he always speaks up if he sees anyone being mistreated, often using his family name and background as a threat of consequence in order to get people to back off to a varying degree of success.

While friendly and nice to pretty much everyone he meets, Dragon really dislikes the stigmatization fairies from Transfeyvania often are met with and will speak up whenever he sees this, at which point he can come across as meanspirited and rude. In spite of that, however, he does work actively to bring down the stigma and mistreatment his people recieve from other fae.

History: Born into a high-ranking noble family in the ever so lovely land of Transfeyvania. His mother is more or less a gloryfied trophy-wife while his father is the duke of the lands, working closely to Transfeyvanias own noble family. As such, Dragon grew up in the lap of luxury, getting everything he ever wanted and more..

His upbringing was filled with etiquette classes and homeschooling from the mansions staff, as his fathers work required him to stay away from home for longer periods of time, making it difficult for the two to bond. This bothered Dragon in the beginning, but as he grew older he started to nuderstand his fathers reasons, and he would occasionally join him in his travels to the capital mostly to look cute in hopes some noble lady would catch his eye.

Luckily for his father, one did. The princess of Transfeyvania, in fact. Her name is Anathema LaVey, the two of them would often play together while the adults did all the business stuff, and they eventually grew close enough to develop love for each other. The topic of marriage was eventually brought up, and the king of Transfeyvania accepted the proposal, viewing the Harkness' family as his closest friends within the nobility already.

Other:
- Dragon dislikes vibrant colors.
- His favorite sweets are the sour kind.

Yay, RP is up!! Here's my chilly fairy:

Zircon Mistmoon

Name: Zircon Mistmoon
Age: Young Adult
Gender: Female

Magic: While technically a water fairy, Zircon specialises in ice magic. She can manipulate water in its liquid form to a small extent, and breathe in it, but her true talent lies in freezing it and generating snow. Extreme cold doesn't hurt her, although high temperatures weaken her.

Appearance:

Zircon has the same dark-blue hair and blue tinged skin as most of the water fairies in her family, but that's where the similarity ends. Her skin has a frosty sheen to it, as do her wings, which are transparent. She dresses in muted shades of blue and grey, eschewing the bright colours worn by most fairies in her former hometown.

Standing at 3 inches (5'8" when she takes on human size), she's tall for a fairy. Her sharp features add to her perpetually unamused look.

Personality: As is fitting for the ice element, Zircon isn't the most expressive fairy. She shows emotions in a subdued way at best, with exasperated sighs and eye rolls. Most of the time she's quiet, only speaking when she truly has something to say.

Due to her past of having been pressured to join in activities that weren't for her, she dislikes pushy people, and those who want her to change to suit them. Her experiences have left her without much of a sense of fun, and she's often told she needs to lighten up. Despite this, she cares about others more than she lets on. Like cracks in ice, sometimes her gentler side will show through the cool and aloof facade.

History: Zircon was born in the wrong kingdom, the sunny Fey Tropics. Although most of the water fairies there thrive in sun, sea and sand, way back in the Mistmoon family line were a few fey who used water magic differently, with an affinity for ice. Zircon took after said ancestors, with a silvery sheen to her skin from birth, and a dislike of the warmth. While other children played on the beach, she'd retreat deep into the cool ocean, and the few times she resurfaced, she'd make it snow. This caused no small amount of conflict, as she'd either get called a grumpy stick in the mud, or get accused of ruining the merriment.

As soon as she was old enough to leave home, she moved to a much more fitting location, the Minty Mountains. Appreciating the peace and quiet, she took up sculpting. Yet from time to time, she'd return to the Fey Tropics. Only out of duty, she'd claim, although anyone could tell she was still attached to her family and the other fey she'd grown up around, no matter how overbearing they'd been trying to get her to keep up with them.

One such fairy was a childhood friend. Coralie Seabreeze would annoy Zircon no end, and does to this day, who despite it all still hangs around. Sometimes, Coralie visits her in the Minty Mountains - being used to the oceans's chill, she doesn't mind the cold. Even though Zircon expresses irritation at Cori's boundless energy and playful pranks, she views her as a cherished friend - and possibly something more. It was Cori who convinced her to come along to the festival, which Zircon hopes she doesn't regret.

Other:
- She sculpts with stone and ice. She's working on mastering a spell to keep ice from melting, so as to make permanent structures, although right now she can only do this with tiny figurines.

- Has visited Transfeyvania a few times to sell her wares, and likes it since it's one of the few places in the Feywilds with a muted aesthetic. She thinks dark fairies get an undeserved bad rap.

Completed WIP

Name: Juniper Thunderbee
Age: Teen
Gender: Female

Magic: As an earth-aligned fairy, Juniper is able to manipulate plant life and make plants grow, including those with harmful or helpful properties.

Appearance:

Picture

Juniper is of normal height but is quite lithe, giving her an air of fragility. She has a light skin tone and cascading oak-brown hair which curls lightly and would trail quite a ways down her back if she left it be. She can spend hours playing it into different braids and buns, or experimenting with wearing different flowers in it. Flowers and small vines often trail across her pointed ears, neck, wrists, arms, and hair. She can summon or dispel them at will and have just become a normal part of her everyday fashion. Juniper normally wears plain, solid-coloured dresses and allows the flowers to do the part of accentuating her looks.

Typical of fairies, she has soft features and expressive eyes which both feature a gradient of green to purple from right to left. Her wings are mostly bright green, but fade to a sky blue as they come closer to her back.

Personality: Juniper has a gentle and sweet disposition, rarely getting into disagreements and quick to offer help. She is especially empathetic to animals, and would probably help an animal in need ahead of another fairy. Animals tend to be drawn to her calm nature (and tendency to bring treats) and many creatures of all shapes and sizes are familiar with her in the Luminous Forest.

Juniper has a tendency to narrate what she's doing or verbally describe objects around her, which might seem like an odd quirk before learning that her father is blind. She would never purposefully talk over anybody, though. That would be difficult anyways given her soft speaking voice. She is easily dominated in conversation by more extroverted types, but is happy to sit and listen.

Her obsession with her appearance means she prefers not to fly too fast, as not to mess up her hair or dislodge any flowers. She can also be dramatic and immature about things such as not wanting to go out in the rain, or landing in trees instead of on the dirty ground.

History: Juniper was born in Lumina to the Thunderbee family. Her mother, Dalila, was an earth fairy just like her. Her father, Surge, was a rare electric variant. In her earliest memories, they spent their days playing among the glowing mushrooms and snuggling together at night. Her childhood memories slowly became of just her and her mother, overlapped with heated arguments between her mother and father when they thought she wasn't listening. It became normal - dad left, and then he came back, sometimes with little souvenirs for her from the lands he visited. She would brag to the other fairy children that her father was a great explorer, a brave hero who ventured far away to bring her and her mom back cool trinkets.

Her point of view changed abruptly when her father returned one day permanently blinded on an adventure. She worried desperately about him when he left again, but tried not to let her mother see that she was upset. She didn't want to give her more reasons to yell at Dad.

Juniper began spending more time outside on her own after that. She had always been fascinated with the plantlife and creatures that dwelled within it, but now she realized she couldn't take her eyesight for granted. What if one day she couldn't see them anymore? She wanted to experience it all and commit it to memory. She made quick friends with many a magical beetle or rodent, and even some of the larger creatures became used to her presence - helped by the cookies that Dalila was so talented at baking. When her father returned from his travels, Juniper told her everything she'd experienced in as much detail as she could. She wanted him to "see" it, too.

Juniper became very familiar with the forest at a young age and would venture progressively deeper into it. She learned which path to take, helped by the creatures she came across. She stayed out longer and longer playing by herself, despite her mom making it clear that she had a strict curfew. One day it began raining when she was deep in the forest, and she decided to wait out the weather instead of fly home and get soaked. The rain didn't let up, and Juniper ended up falling asleep in a tree burrow, snuggled with a large feysquirrel.

She awoke much later to find sunlight peeking through the tree hole. She flew home in a panic, knowing her mother would be wondering where she was. There were fairies bustling around everywhere when she arrived back to Lumina, and all of them surrounded Juniper when they spotted her and began crying. They'd thought she was dead - the whole town was out searching - and her mother...

Her mother had gone looking for her last night and not returned. When Juniper insisted she would go find her, they broke the truth - that she had already been found, but she'd been found dead. Perhaps a toxic plant had gotten her, or a bite from one of the feysnakes - the cause wasn't obvious. She looked so peaceful when Juniper approached to say goodbye for one last time.

Juniper refused to leave the house for weeks and fell into a depression. Her father wasn't home, so neighbours would check on her and make sure she was eating. She blamed herself for her mother's death - part of her still does to this day. When her father finally returned home, Juniper collapsed in his arms and sobbed.

Both of their lives abruptly changed, but they had to move forward, together. Surge stopped adventuring to look after her, but in a way, Juniper began looking after him, too. She took over cooking after Surge's first several attempts ended with him feeding her trail mix for dinner. She'd picked up some level of knowledge from watching and listening to Dalila cook. She also became accustomed to narrating her surroundings or people she came across for her dad. Sure, Dad set the rules and paid the bills, but they slowly became a team. For years she would beg him to recount his stories of grandeur before she fell asleep, and then she would dream about exploring herself one day.

Perhaps that day isn't too far off...

Completed Sign-up

Name: Sonset Pepperoot, nicknamed Sonny.

Age: Young Adult

Gender: Male

Magic: Fire magic, he can conjure it from his body and make it take the form of objects and animals. He can even make it take the shape of another fairy. It is obviously a mass of fire but he can make them move around like they are normal creatures. He can make normal fireballs and such too, though he rarely does so. He is unable to use his magic if he is wet.

Character Image

Appearance: Sonny is an average height fairy with a slender yet well-toned body. His skin tone is a dark chocolate brown color. Other than some bold black freckles on his cheeks, his skin is without any major scarring and blemishes. Fiery orange hair with yellow tips is neatly cut mid-neck and the bangs are swept to the left. Sonny's hair is tidy and straight without a single strand out of place. It naturally ends up like that despite the minimal care he does for it. A bright yellow eye peers strongly out from below the orange hair which gives him an assertive image. As for his wings, they have the shape of the common yellow swallowtail butterfly except the edges are a little more wavy giving it a fiery look. The part of the wings close to his back is solid black and lightens up to an orange color before turning yellow at the edges.

All Sonny really wears these days is an off-color white lace-up top, tan knee-length shorts, an orange scarf, a dark orange sash, and a pair of black knee-high boots. The sleeve hole and bottom of the shorts are frayed from being amateurishly cut giving them a torn look. Everything else about the outfit is in excellent condition as proof it hasn't really been worn much. An eye patch covers Sonny's left eye and it is black with a flame design on it.

For the party, though Sonny has been 'encouraged' to wear a pristine button-down vest that is white with gold borders, long black slacks, and spotlessly clean black dress shoes. The fire fairy also was given a crown of orange flowers to make him more presentable. He is still wearing the scarf which adds some color to the attire and his eyepatch.

Personality: To put it frankly, Sonny is eccentric to the point that after meeting a pirate he decided to give himself a pirate name and be one. He is quite compulsive and willing to jump on anything that sounds interesting. He is one to do unconventional and inconvenient activities just for the fun of it. Many find his actions idiotic and reckless, seeing him as nothing more than a troublemaker. It doesn’t help that people nearby get dragged into his nonsense. These negative opinions of him rarely even get registered in his brain and he just continues doing whatever pops into his brain. This is mostly contributed by having an awful attention span that results in him getting very easily distracted. Sonny also has a terrible habit of half-listening to people which causes much trouble and misunderstandings. While not a bad person, Sonny doesn't even factor in how his careless actions affect others. So many of his wild actions more times than not just causes problems for everyone involved.

Because is his admiration of pirates, Sonny has been taking a pirate guise. He dresses similar to them, and talks in a pirate accent. He has even given himself the name Captain Aldridge. There is not must difference between his pirate persona and his usual self. Though his tendency to drag in others is on purpose as he attempts to be a leader.

History: Sonset was born in Pompfey like most fire fairies. He is actually a part of the royal family though he is just the 2nd cousin to the future heir with dozens of older fairies in higher lineage. So there is little chance he would ever inherit the throne, which is fine by him. His childhood to teen years was spent in the fire fairies of Pompfey territory. He found life in the barren wastelands they call home plain boring, but living in the royal family castle was even more unbearable. So often, he would sneak out to play near the lava pools of the active volcano they lived near or at the edge of town where he played around with his magic. Many times his hunt for something exciting to do has almost resulted in terrible accidents or injuries. Luckily nothing serious ever occurred from his reckless behavior.

Right around when he reached the age to be considered and young adult, he finally got to leave Pompfey. Sonny was excited to see something other than endless sand and a few stray cacti. The Fey Tropics still had sand but it seem different as it sat at the border of the large body of water. There was so much green and water, that Sonny couldn't help but get distracted and separated from the rest of his family. It didn't take long for him to be hopelessly lost without really knowing where he should be going. Then a strong windstorm passed through and he got blown away from the city.

As fate would have it he met with a water fairy named Neptune that called himself a pirate. He was a combination of strong, cool, and kind, and it made Sonny look up to him. After half a day of traveling, he was brought about to The Fey Tropics and his family. Sonny had a new love of pirates to much dismay of his family.

Other:
- His full pirate name is Captain Aldridge Rowley.
- The eyepatch he wears is cosmetic and both of his eyes are perfectly fine.
- Sonny oddly likes water despite the negative effects it has on him.

Airy Inventor

Name: Vyvien Nimbus
Age: Young Adult
Gender: Female

Magic: Air magic. Vyvien can control the power and direction of wind as well as create a gusts from still air. She can also alter the air pressure so that she can compact air into small spaces and release sonic booms, or she can lessen it and lower the concentration of breathable gases like that on top of mountains. Lastly, she is also capable of altering the density of air around her to act more like a solid object, but her invisible constructs made this way are no harder than a pillow in texture. These constructs only exist briefly, such as cushioning a fall, or creating a wall to stop something moving.

Appearance:

Hider

Vyvien has long blueish hair that tends to get in the way of what she is doing, but doesn’t mind it much. Her wings are a deep blue, and translucent, making her hard to see when looking up at a clear blue sky. She always has a smile. She doesn’t wear much if any jewelry. Her outfits tend to not have many lose or long cuts such as sleeves or pant legs to keep from getting snagged on things (Despite her not having this care when it comes to her hair). She has goggles and a series of magical tools she has locked in a wheel of runes. When active, the rune wheel floats behind her, manifesting tools as she needs them. Each rune represents a different tool.

Personality: A cheery individual, who tries to get along with everybody. She is not afraid to introduce herself to anyone she meets. She enjoys talking with people, and if interest aligns, it might be hard to get her to stop. This is especially true if anyone shows interest into her inventions. She will go on about her creative processes, or what problems her devices hopes to solve. She will even invite complete strangers to her home so that she can show off some of her creations.

Vyvien is not afraid to try out new ideas and will often add suggestions of her own if she thinks it will help. Often times, these are not good ideas, but sometimes her enthusiasm wins people over. She is very passionate about her projects, and she is not afraid to bring in others.

Vyvien is quick to forgive people who wrong her, and holds little to no repercussions on requests from people who may have done her harm in the past. If they come to her with an apology, Vyvien will continue to work and interact with no reservations. Similarly, it is hard to make her angry. She can feel hurt, and betrayed, but she will rarely get angry with a person.

History:

Vyvien grew up with Feydale. Of neither royalty or renown, there wasn’t many duties for her to fulfill. As a result, whenever she had free time, which was often, she would spend it tinkering with whatever odds and ends she found lying around. When she was very young, she started out making her own slingshots, air cannons out of tubes, or other simple machines that involved only her magic and few moving parts. As she grew up, she started taking things apart and putting them back together. She was making her own tinker toys, or tiny pistons that blew out smoke rings. She would spend hours making and perfecting Rube Goldberg machines.

At first, Vyvien’s parents were not all that pleased with her. Not because of the creativity or ingenuity of what she was doing, but rather she was often disruptive. She learned how things were put together by trial and error, and given the different make up of what built Feydale, it was not hard to figure out that if something fell through, Vyvien had a hand in the disrepair. She never meant to cause harm, but her curiosity and fascination always clouded her judgment when it came to whether she should take things a part.

In an effort to control their daughter, Vyvien’s parents tried to get her into other hobbies, such as the choir. That failed when Vyvien dismantled several old instruments. Unfortunately, she wasn’t able to put them back together, and she was banned from the music theater entirely. As another attempt to control her that more aligned with her interests, she went to learn from other artificers so at least she could have a better understanding of what she was doing and perhaps find a career in maintaining the infrastructure that made up Feydale. She was initially denied because of her antics creating more work then any of the other fairies wanted to repair, but eventually relented choosing the lesser of two evils, in their words.

Vyvien finally mellowed out, and her destructive nature was contained. Vyvien grew to be very good at fixing things that were broken. She was fast, efficient, and always delivered quality work. While she found joy in the repair work she was doing, it didn’t quite scratch the itch she had when it came to tinkering. In her off time, she often worked to build different machines and inventions. Many were powered by air, fire, or water. She had friends that specialized in those magics to help her understand and utilize their namesakes. However, these inventions usually had unforeseen consequences, and her devices seldom worked. In an effort to make a tool that could self bake cakes, for example, the result was a device that was more like a flamethrower capable of launching over-baked bricks. Vyvien was able to fix the damage easily, but she had to move into a workshop away from her parents place.

Besides for her two friends, Vyvien doesn’t hang out with many others often. She has gained the notoriety for her wacky inventions that may or may not result in structural or bodily harm. Despite the stories that spread about her inventions, most of them are harmless. It’s the few that are that leave a lasting impression. For Vyvien, it’s either go big or go home when it comes to those particular devices. Regardless of her reputation, she still lives and works as a talented and quality tinkerer. She can fix most things just fine in a short amount of time. She’s always happy to help.

Other:
Her friends are Tyrone Spitfire and Rain Riverfell
Her parents are Star and Zephyr Nimbus
Her favorite food is angel food cake
She detests anything sour
Vyvien is happy to report she has hospitalized only three other fairies on accident (She wants to stress that none have been on purpose).
