I have written Thomas a bit straight, because he is actually a pretty unknown character. The girdle of shape changing making him three feet tall is the only big change. I am trying to think of a twist for him... Thomas is really a girl in disguise... no... It will come to me.

Tom Thumb is actually Thumbelina? Proposterous!
(Actually, with people that tiny, it'd be really hard to check...joking, of course.)

Optimist, would you object to changing the promise of a son from Merlin to Rumplestilskin? I see him doing something like that, promising a son but then it turns out to be that he's only two inches tall lol. I'm trying to think of different ways to tie our characters together somehow.

Ursa - oh okay! makes sense! So now that we have an idea of the story of where your character comes from, would you type up a quick personal back story for him? Explain his relationship a bit better and go into what he does in the fantasy land? Was he cursed into making it night? Etc...

There isn't much to it, yet...I haven't gotten much background thought up.

Originally the shadow of Death himself, kinda like this story The Shadow, just separated from him one day...except he more or less became Death's son instead of his replacement. After the red rider and the white rider, Sun and Day, come into existence by ___, he was given the name and role of Night. Sometimes, he just takes on a human form and chills in his darkness he creates till Day takes over for him, or practises jousting with Sun before bringing his darkness. Other times, he just is the darkness, the Night.

Being the Night, most humans see him as intimidating, even dangerous, a perfect personification of the darkness he represents and the (super)natural son of Death. He is very close companions with the other two riders, and has only befriended one human to date (his father's godson), though he has also made the acquaintance of Vasilisa during the girl's donor trial by Baba Yaga. He has a strong sense of justice, and though he unintentionally hides criminals, sometimes he has Day drive them out of his cloak of darkness to face justice in the morning light.

(WIP, story is likely to change if I link more stories to his background)

I had an idea for Willy Wonka (Charlie and the Chocolate Factory started as a book). Basically, he comes from a land in which Magic can only be used through machines. The Magic, after being processed through machines, takes a physical form known as 'Candy.' Willy Wonka uses this and rules the land, turning it into a dystopian magic-future kind of place. There are, however, rebels, who must hide in secret. A brave, war-hero of the land is named "Charlie Bucket." The rest of the story is pretty long.

Name: Cheshire Cat (Birth name: Unknown)

Appearance: http://img4.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20130606091055/coraline/images/d/d6/The_Cat.jpg (Note: The Cat is unnaturally large for a domesticated cat, being the size of a bobcat by comparison. Around his neck is a heart-shaped key of unknown purpose. Not seen in the picture is the Cat's ever present, never fading wide grin.)

Backstory: Though the legend of the Cheshire Cat is spread far and wide, what actual truth lies within the story is well-hidden, muddled by lies and inconsistencies. The general consensus states that the Cat used to be a commonplace wizard, yet gifted in the art of Illusion who enjoyed using his magic for fun and recreation rather than serious study. Little is known of the events that subsequently led to his transformation into the Cheshire Cat. Yet it is said he wears the key around his neck as a sign of loss, or a memento of something from his past life.

[Goat God]

I would like to be a Billy goat Gruff. Possible Gang?

[YoshiSkittlez]

Optimist - Awesomeness! Thanks!

Ursa - Sweetness, I like it a lot

GhostShadow - Nice :)

JGamer - I think that Willy Wonka might be pushing it, yes it was a story before they made it into a movie but I don't necessarily classify it as a Fairy Tale

Goat - Billy Goat Gruff could be interesting, especially if it were gang related. Could you come up with a quick back story for that?

No, I just saw this fairy-tale yesterday...though I did read the manga twist version of it years ago. It does end with the princess getting her prince though, but the plot is pretty much what you wanted. Just make it a different ending.
A maid muscles her way into switching places with the princess. It works 'cause the princess is going off into a different kingdom to be married to their prince, and her parents wouldn't likely visit for years...?

[YoshiSkittlez]

I might have a few ideas lol
