Once Upon a Time...Interest Check with group ideas...

[Guardian Angel Haruki]

Yeah, I think we should start it off in the fairy tale land.

[Lord Wyron]

I second that.

[A Rainmaker]

Third..ed.

[Major Ursa]

I think it's a good idea. Maybe some of us cross paths on certain quests...?

I would love to do it.

[YoshiSkittlez]

The majority rules, fairy tale land it is then :) (Does Fairy Tale Land even have a proper name? lmao)

Okay I'm making a web board with all of our characters and how they are connected to one another (to help keep things interesting), however some people have yet to make a deal with Rumplestilskin (because he has his hand in everything lol). I need to hear from Black Night, Ariel, Tom Thumb, and Billy Goat Gruff in order to arrange some things, so if you could please PM me we can discuss the nitty-gritty :D

Also, if any of you are interested in having a pre-history with another character (some have already been set up, and we have talked about it lol) then feel free to talk amongst yourselves and set that up if you wish (it would help me out a TON).

[YoshiSkittlez]

*kills double post*

[Major Ursa]

Well...what do you guy think your character would be doing at the beginning of the RP?

Night is just doing his usual wander through the darkness, though he is also looking out for Koschei the Immortal's 'death', a small quest given to him by his father.

The enchanted forest. DUH.

[reem]

I would totally play as Flynn Rider!

[YoshiSkittlez]

Flynn Rider hmm? Would this be before he met Rapunzel? Or are you going to take a totally different take on him?

[YoshiSkittlez]

Alright guys, I went ahead and made an OOC thread, I'll PM you the link once you have filled out the following CS for your FANTASY LAND character (do not go into the modern day stuff yet, that will be a completely different CS for a different time)

Name:
Appearance: (images please)
Age:
Affiliation: (Good/Evil/On the Fence)
Magic Capabilities:
Weapons:
Strengths:
Weaknesses:
Relationships: (Not necissarily romantic, any kind of relationship with any other character can go here)
Brief Bio: (What everyone should know about your character)

[YoshiSkittlez]

Name: Rumpelstilskin, ‘The Dark One’

Appearance:

Age: Unknown, seems to have been around forever

Affiliation: Likes to believe he is doing things for the good, but has questionable methods of going about it.

Magic Capabilities: There is very little that Rumpelstilskin can’t do, however he is limited to being able to materialize in other worlds. Being the best person to understand magic coming with a price, there isn’t anything he can’t or won’t do to remain superior against other magic users.

Weapons: Rumpelstilskin mainly uses his magic as a weapon, however he is known to use items such as daggers and swords from time to time.

Strengths: Magic and Power, both of which he has the upmost control over.

Weaknesses: Rumor has it that there is a magical artifact that can kill The Dark One, rumor also has it that there is a soft spot in his heart for a girl he once enslaved in his own home as part of a deal.

Relationships: Rumpelstilskin seems to know of just about everyone in the land, whether or not they know or are aware of him is another story.

Brief Bio: Very little is known about Rumpelstilskin himself, as the rumors about him seem to confuse the truth with each passing year. One solid fact remains, however, is that Rumpelstilskin used to be an ordinary man, a poor man with a small family that has since vanished (and no one knows as to why). Overcome with the need for power, Rumpelstilskin cursed himself into becoming The Dark One and has since reigned down horror and trickery upon all those whom he wishes to cross paths with. There is no escaping The Dark One, and once you make a deal with him, there is no going back.

Spoilers

Will be revealed in game

[YoshiSkittlez]

Name: Red

Appearance:

Age: 26

Affiliation: Good

Magic Capabilities: Has the ability to turn into a wolf which she has been able to master controlling as of late.

Weapons: Red carries around a couple hidden daggers within her boots and belt. She also uses a bow and arrows (favorably) and has been known to wield dual blades.

Strengths: Tracking, hunting, survival. Whenever Red is in the forest, she will never perish as the forest is like home to her. Her keen sense of smell and sight also make it easier to track down either people or potential food.

Weaknesses: Red often times reverts back to her past when she was unable to control the wolf inside of her and often times blames herself for things she couldn’t control. She is also very sensitive when it comes to her granny and will do whatever it takes to protect her. As a wolf, the only known thing to be able to hurt her is a silver dagger.

Relationships:
Granny, who she has spent her entire life with and was raised by.
Snow White, arguably her best friend.
Anita, her mother who is since deceased.

Brief Bio: Red was a very little girl when she lost her father and two brothers to the Wolf and has since been raised by her own Granny. Many, many years later while trying to find this wolf she believed it to be her boyfriend at the time and convinced him to tie himself up to a tree so that when he transformed, he couldn’t hurt anyone. Red stayed with him the entire night, however it came to be that it was Red who was the wolf, and since her boyfriend was tied up, he became a snack for Red as she was unable to control (or even remember) her wolf part.

Overly distraught by killing her love, Red has a hard time talking with other men her age and keeps only to those she knows she can trust; Snow White and her Granny. Since the incident, Red came across her mother who was also a wolf, and taught Red how to control (and remember) being the wolf when she transforms. In a struggle to protect Snow White, Red killed her own mother and returned to live with her Granny back in the cottage.

Now that Red is able to control her wolf side, the townspeople often times use Red for help tracking lost people in the woods or help them with other beasts that may otherwise terrorize the town.

[A Rainmaker]

Name:
Ariel, sometimes calling herself Leira.

Appearance:

Ariel stands at 5'5" and is of slim build with red hair and light blue eyes. When in mermaid form, her tail spans all the colors between blue and green, cast with an iridescent shimmer.

Age:
34, though she appears about 19. Mermaids live about 300 years, so she's still considered very young.

Affiliation:
On the Fence, leaning more towards evil with each passing day.

Magic Capabilities:
Using her knife, Ariel can steal the voices on others and capture them in a shell worn around her neck.
A bespelled bracelet allows Ariel to change from tail to legs.
As a mermaid, she has seductive abilities in appearance and voice, though the latter is lost to her.
Ariel is studying under Ursula and learning spells, but she is still fairly new to witchery.

Weapons:
A knife with a handle of bone and a double-edged blade of about 6 inches. The handle is etched with the magic imbued in it.
A gold-gilded sea shell resides of a chain around Ariel's neck and acts as a temporary reservoir for the voices she steals.

Strengths:
Ariel is adept with communicating with other species that live in her watery home, as well as some birds.
Where once she could sing and enchant, now she can dance - though dancing is terribly painful.
When magic concerns water, Ariel finds she has some innate skill at handling the slippery subject.

Weaknesses:
Although she is a typical and healthy mermaid, Ariel is a bit defective for a landwalker. The spell that grants her legs has been transferred to a chain she keeps around her wrist, but the spell is not without consequences: no matter what, her legs are afflicted with sharp, stabbing pain that has no cure. She dehydrates quicker than the average human would and cannot be parted from the sea for more than 24 hours, though she need only return for a few hours. If incapable of returning within that time, Ariel grows dizzy and nauseous, collapses, and eventually dries out.

Relationships:
Previously had a romantic relationship with Prince Eric, who she later killed.
Apprenticed to the Sea Witch, Ursula.

Brief Bio:
A daughter was born to King Triton in the image of her mother, with hair of flame and a song that could entice even the most forbidding sailor. As was the coming of age gift, Ariel was allowed one visit to the surface. During that visit she witnessed a ship being pummeled by a storm and swam closer to save one of the sailors - a Prince Eric. Having saved him, she also became thoroughly enamored and sought the Sea Witch's magic in hope that she might join the prince on land. The price for legs was constant pain, the threat of absolute death without true love's kiss, and the loss of her coveted voice. Ariel returned to the prince, but eventually he fell in love with and married a girl who pulled him from the shore after Ariel rescued him.

Although she despaired, Ariel's sisters sought the Sea Witch and made another bargain that would return Ariel to the sea: Prince Eric's death. When night came and she stood over the sleeping couple, Ariel only briefly wavered before slaughtering the prince in his sleep. She returned to the sea by dripping the blood on her legs and feet and then apprenticed the sea witch. She learned to walk on land, a trick that cost her much but gave more, including the death of the princess who allowed Prince Eric to believe she had been the savior. Although Ariel rejoices in dragging sailors to their watery deaths, she is never quite satisfied. Ursula refused to teach Ariel how to steal voices, fearing the mermaid would figure out to recapture her own, so in a fit of rage Ariel went topside and prowled the docks, looking for departing sailors to hunt.

The Dark One appeared to her, during which they made a tidy bargain, the result of which adorned Ariel's

neck

. Since then, she studies alongside Ursula for the most part and surfaces only to steal a new voice or map out the movement of some unfortunate sailors.

[Optimist]

Name: Thomas Thumb
Appearance:

Age: 25
Affiliation: Good-ish
Magic Capabilities: he can transform his tiny form into a three foot tall human, has a cap of knowledge, as shoes which can carry him anywhere and a ring of invisibility, though he usually relies on his wits
Weapons:a tiny suit of armor and a tiny sword given him by the queen
Strengths: ability to think on his feet and slip around without being noticed; agility
Weaknesses: mischievous and a bit vein
Relationships: The Queen of the Fairies is his god-mother; he is the "Queen's Dwarf"
Brief Bio:

He is the son of Thomas the plowman and his wife Gerta. He was promised to them by Rumpelstiltskin after Gerta wished for a son, even if he was no bigger than her thumb. Thomas was born three months later and was indeed no bigger than her thumb. His midwife was the Queen of the fairies who bestowed up him an outfit made from nuts, leaves and the like.

Tom was not the best of boys and used his size to play pranks on the other boys. He would hide in their pockets and make noises like a cat, or creep through their windows at night and steal their coins. Generally he was a bit of a menace. Still, his mother loved him dearly. His mother started to keep him close to her to keep him out of mischief, but he still got into troubles.

He was, at different times, swallowed by a cow, baked into a muffin and carried away by a raven. Each time he survived by the narrowest of margins. The raven, when it caught him, dropped him into the castle of a giant, who swallowed him, but vomited him back out his window, into the sea. A sea fish swallowed him next, and it was in turn caught by a fisherman. The fisherman sold it to a maid of the queen's court, who cut up the fish to serve it, after baking it, and narrowly missed killing Tom in the process. Again though, Tom was magically lucky and managed to escape unharmed, running across the queen's table. He became her court dwarf, and was even fitted with a tiny suit of armor, for her amusement.

When he was eighteen, the Queen of the Fairy's visited him, as he lay sleeping in a rose. She left him presents to mark him manhood, including shoes which could carry him anywhere in a moment, a girdle of shape changing which could make him three feet tall, an enchanted hat of knowledge and a ring of invisibility. He continued his pranks, using these new gifts and generally amused the queen and her court with his antics.

Tom stands only two inches high and has a wiry build. He has a firm chin, shaggy golden hair and gray eyes. He has started to grow tired of his life at court and longs for adventures in the wide world, but his mother worries about him leaving. His dear old father has past on, but his mother still lives with him at court, and tries to keep him out of mischief. He resents his mother's interference, but can not bring himself to tell her off.

They still own a lot of land, and anyone on the land must either be a Gruff on get off. Eldest is always accepting new recruiting new members, but they must go through a long list of tasks. Eldest is still recovering from his brothers’ death.

[CallaLily180]

Name: Mushu Uses the name Lily

Appearance:

She has cuts over most of her face, and makes more frequently. Standing at 4'5 she isn't the tallest girl, but that makes her more lethal in battle. She also weighs only 115lbs. For more ninja purposes. She also has no breasts...*clears throat* and when working, at night she is only in her costume. Covering almost all of her body. Or she is in a kimono.

Age: 19

Affiliation: On the fence, she works for both good and evil.

Magic Capabilities:
Unless you count the usage of elements for escape, fire; using explosives and fire to confuse, metal; using the ninja weapons she escapes with things like her darts and throwing stars, water; hiding in bodies of water, smoke; such as smoke screen bombs, and stealth; self explanatory. As for magic, none.

Weapons:
Anything around her can be a weapon, she has in fact used a teacup as a weapon, and though she doesn't carry all weapons she has the knowledge to in fact use all weapons well.
On her she carries as such;

Throwing Stars
Darts, the tips of a special few are laced with poison.

Strengths:
As a true ninja(kind of) she is quick-witted, fast on her feet, never heard, she is like the darkness when she steps out of her kimono and into what they call the 'void'. She is never heard nor seen like that, and she is amazing at espionage.
She can also use her surrounding easily, a board coming up in your house to reveal a sword, a simple nest the tinder that brings down your wooden house. She is creative and brave.

Weaknesses:
She can not stay to fight, ninja are restricted. Meaning if she surrenders she will die, if she dies...well she dies.
She is just a human, whilst being an intelligent and basically nonexistent being. She is only human.

Relationships: Regina, Anyone who wants to admit they paid her for her capabilities.

Brief Bio:
They should not know anything about her true identity, but in the terms of "Lily" she is a normal Chinese girl. Traveling into town on a simple horse, nothing fancy. She is new and she is simple. A cut up face suggests she has been through some tough times, but other then that she is a tiny, vulnerable girl.

Other: She sleeps on her left to protect her heart, she tells time by how dilated a cat's eyes are, and uses elements to predict the future, she uses a tool to walk on water, she is a vegetarian, and her suit is a navy blue NOT black.
