Hey all- its been about 6 months since I've last role-played on this site. Now that I'm on break I just really want to dive back in. I've thought about this old idea of mine a lot as of late and I kinda want to bring it back.
The original title was (and probably will stay) Fate by Flowers.
The setting is Medieval times. In a fantasy village set deep within a forest. This village is well known for its diverse community and world famous flower, the Ascythenia, which grows only there.
Your character has come to live (or has lived there all their lives) in the village of Vale. It is here that they learn of a legend deeply rooted in the forests history- a legend of thread and flowers. In short the legend states that when the Ascythenia flower blooms on the house or at the door or by the bed of one individual- that an identical one will also bloom by their soulmate. It is also stated that an invisible thread will connect their hearts- pulling taut when they are near each other and thus clearly informing the soulmate that theirs is near. Now, wether your character believes this or not, they find that a flower has bloomed at their home- and they soon learn that an identical one has bloomed by the person they least expected! Will your character follow fate or refuse to believe such an old tale?
Sub plot: tbd. Open to suggestions. I’m more leaning toward adventure atm.
Pairing Info I will be pairing your characters- only after they have been made and I get to know them better.
Character Building -Your character is determined by the parent role you pick (I'll be playing the parents- players are free to play their parents when the need arises or if they simply want to. But I'd like to use them to push the story along.) -Names matter. This is a fantasy world- I don't want to see common names (Emily, John etc) Google a fantasy name generator if you're having problems. -

Empty atm.
The Mayor: He is a cheerful and rotund fellow who is loved by all the village-folk. He has been Mayor for 23 years and no one sees an end to his governing. He comes from a long-line of warriors that founded Vale- but he turned in his shield when his daughter was born. Now he lives with his family near the center of town by the town hall- in a plush house framed by gardens of sunflowers. He is good friends with the Blacksmith, Doctor, and Ranger.
The Doctor: Quite the grumpy fellow- he is the oldest of the parents- with snowy white hair and bushy gray eyebrows. He takes pride in his work and, quite honestly, is the best at what he does in all of the south. He moved to Vale when his daughter was young- from a city farther north called Gardenia. His family is rumored to have royal lineage- but the Doctor refuses to acknowledge these rumors- he prefers to live simply and humbly. He lives with his daughter near the school, just above the clinic that they run together. He is friends with the Mayor, the Bard, and the Ranger.
The Thief: A city rat exiled to Vale lest she get her hands cut off if she were caught by the law. The Thief is not ashamed of who she is- she steals to provide for her family and because it is all she knows. Unlike the other parents the Thief came from impoverished beginnings- she learned to do whatever it took to survive. She learned to cut purses and charm coats before she could read. The village folk do not know much about her- but it is rumored that she was once part of a group of assassins. The Thief is not poor in Vale- she lives off of a wealth she acquired on her last heist before being exiled. She lives on the outskirts of town. She is good friends with the Ranger and the Bard.
The Ranger: The Ranger is a master hunter- his job is a mixture of bounty-hunter and botanist. His knowledge of the forest is supreme in Vale and he uses it to aid others. He often patrols the village boarders- making sure to take care of any beasts that stray too near and to keep an eye out for any other dangers. He assists the Doctor in acquiring the proper herbs for medicine. He also takes it upon himself to hunt game for those in need of it (mainly the poorer families and the elderly). His home lies near the southern entrance- although he barely stays there for long. He has a pet wolf-dog that is with him at all times. The Ranger is good friends with the Mayor, the Doctor, and the Thief.
The Bard: Like all traveling Bards she knows stories and songs about all parts of the world that the characters live in. Her enchanting voice soothes and inspires- and many of the village-folk enjoy to listen to her sing at the tavern she runs. She is lively and charismatic- a true charmer. The Bard lives in the tavern (located on the east end of town) with her son, which they both run together. The Bard is good friends with the Thief, the Doctor, and the Blacksmith.
The Blacksmith: Most if not all of Vales weapons are forged at the Blacksmiths home. Her weapons are fine and dependable- made with a skill that is almost dwarven with its care. She is a loud and proud individual- who could out drink any man and probably beat them in any fight. She may be rough and rowdy- but there is nothing more important to her than her son- whom she often gets emotional over. They live in the northern part of town and their forge is frequented by rangers and Academymen. The Blacksmith is good friends with the Bard and the Mayor.
