I'll try my best to make them soon! xD

Magical Fairy Tale Squad ~ The RP

@Dragonfly 9 On the subject of power limitations, I feel it's worth mentioning that Nerissa can only manipulate water from the air, lakes, and other inorganic sources, she can't pull the water out of a living being. She'd be able to defeat monsters way too easily otherwise.

@LuckyBlackCat

Alright, sounds good! :D

I'm gonna have to DM Crimson about his character and The Iron Knight later today, so prepare for that, Crimson! ;)

(And no, you're not in trouble. xD)

Magical Fairy Tale Squad ~ The RP

@Vahir Accepted! Also, I'm adding a new rule: Mary's control of animals can only work on normal animals and monster/beast NPCs(such as the monsters/beasts The Evil Queen makes). So Leon is 100% free from influence!...So far. >:3

Magical Fairy Tale Squad ~ The RP

Why have 3 shy girls…

Name: Margaret “Mary” White
Age: 15
Gender: Female (She/Her)
Appearance(Civilian AND Superhero):
Personality: Mary is a shy and quiet individual by nature. She was always this way, and being bullied as a kid didn't help. She is very sensitive and emotional. She can easily be driven to tears when She's sad. She fears being bullied. She usually speaks with a quiet voice, and occasionally a stutter when She's nervous. She also becomes very apologetic when someone shows any hint of being upset. she likes animals of all kinds. From the cute ones to the not so cute ones, she can find something to love about every species. She usually prefers being with animals than with people. Animals will listen without judgement, and only expect a little kindness in return. She is gentle and softspoken, which seems to be the reason why She has such an easy time with animals. She gets scared easily, her worst phobia being stage fright. She gets really nervous when there are a lot of people watching her do anything. She’s scared that she'll mess up, and that she'll be laughed at. She really wants to be brave, but it's harder than it looks.

Despite being shy, she is by no means antisocial. If you talk to her, you'll find She's quite friendly, and polite. She can laugh and make jokes like any other kid. She is always happy to have to new friends, because her shyness makes it difficult to make them. She is very affectionate and loyal to those She likes. She hates it when people are angry around her, so She tries her best to keep the peace. In conversations, She is usually more of a listener than a talker, and she has no problems being a sounding board when someone wants to vent (As long as they don't hurt her.) Mary is very kind to others, often to a fault. She is very trusting of people, and is willing to give them the benefit of the doubt.

Mary is usually very difficult to anger, and is very quick to forgive someone when She does get mad. She doesn't want to burden others with her problems, and She fears being made fun of, so She keeps them to himself. This causes her personal frustration, and She occasionally acts passive agressive towards those She disagrees with because of it. When it gets to be too much, She'll lash out at the target, and let out her pent up rage. She dislikes bullying (towards himself or others,) as well as people being needlessly cruel to animals. Doing one of those things is the best way to get her upset.

Mary is very careful and calculating. She always thinks before she speaks, and prefers not to wrecklessly jump into danger. However, due to her insecurity She is often uncertain if the choices she makes are the right ones. She can easily be convinced to change her mind. This leaves her with some anger when the plan fails and She knew her original idea would have worked. She also doesn't like violence all that much, having been a victim of it most of her life. Although She doesn't look like it, Mary has a big appetite. She likes eating many different kinds of foods, and has the cooking skills to match.

Background: Mary was born a princess, but she doesn’t know that. She was taken to Charm as a baby by one of the queen’s servants where he raised her like a daughter. As such she was raised as a modern girl, with no idea of her true heritage.

As far as Mary knows, she was born and raised in Charm. For the most part, her life was normal. She loves the man she believes to be her father, and hasn’t had any reason to question anything. Mary was often a target of bullying because of his shyness, tendency to get scared easily, he was short, having clumsy moments, or for being that weird girl who sits in the forest alone to read. No matter what she did to get them to stop it, it always failed or they found something else to give her crap about. It gave her self-esteem issues, resulting in her becoming even more timid. As a result, she had very few friends growing up. He didn't tell anyone about the bullying, lest it become worse. She saw other kids get beaten up much worse after they snitched, and she didn't want that to happen. So she kept it all inside and let her resentment build.

Early on, Mary always knew she had a special connection to animals. They seem to be fond of her due to his softspoken nature. She would often finds sick, or injured animals and cares for, plays with, and feeds them when no one else will. Around animals, Mary felt much more like herself. She found relief from the stresses of life, and she's found they are the best friends she could ask for.

Potential Quirks:

• Likes to read, and in particular enjoys fantasy and fairy tales
• Is secretly a romantic. She likes reading romance novels, and hopes to find a prince of her own. She’s too shy to actually approach a boy herself though.
• Is squeamish about blood
• Her favorite food is apples!

Abilities(for civilian form): Animals are naturally drawn to Mary, and she seems to be able to understand them.

Powers: With her singing voice, Mary is able to summon animals to do her bidding. Whether that’s a flock of birds, a herd of deer, to even bugs and rodents. They will fight for her, or even do her chores for her to the best of their ability. The animals are all too happy to help.

It’s not just animals she can command with her singing. She can even command trees and plants around to come to life and do her bidding too.

Fairy Tale Character You Are: Snow White

Other:

• She can’t bear the idea of eating animals, and as such she’s a vegetarian.
• She is not sure what she wants to do when she’s done with school. She has considered becoming a veterinarian, but her distaste for blood has ruled that out.
• She has a beautiful singing voice, but is embarrassed to let humans hear it. Singing to an audience of animals is ok though. Animals don’t judge.

@Crimson Flame

Accepted!

Remember to put your characters in the character tab(and make them hiders as well) once they're accepted! :3

I'm currently deciding between a character inspired by (Disney's) Hunchback of Notre Dame or Belle from Beauty and The Beast(but with 1,000 times more gremlin energy), by the way! :D

Magical Fairy Tale Squad ~ The RP

@LuckyBlackCat And yes, people from Grimm have their powers from birth.

Magical Fairy Tale Squad ~ The RP

@Dragonfly 9 Question, do people from Grimm have their powers from birth, or do they also get the vials while in Charm?

Btw I call dibs on the Little Mermaid if that's ok. She's going to be a foil to Crimson's character in that she's also from Grimm, but was sent to Charm much more recently, so still has some adapting to do. I'll be playing up the near-literal "fish out of water" thing.

EDIT: CS is done!

Nerissa Nix

Name: Nerissa Nix

Age: 16

Appearance:

Civilian form

Hero form

Gender: Female

Personality: Outwardly, Nerissa appears lively and cheery, yet somewhat detached. Even when she's trying to act confident, she has nervous tics such as chewing her lip, biting her nails, and awkward laughter. A chronic people-pleaser, she does her best to avoid conflict and act however others want her to, partly due to how she had to mold to her family's expectations as a princess in Grimm.

Which is difficult, since she still isn't entirely used to living in Charm, only knowing so much about pop culture and the latest technology. Further complicating the matter is her trauma-induced selective mutism. She finds herself unable to speak in certain situations - in front of large groups, when something reminds her of a distressing incident (eg. being unable to help someone in danger), and when being bullied. These episodes are short-lived, and during them she can still write, text and gesture, but they still cause problems. While she's no longer guaranteed to be queen, if she's to have any part in Perlene's politics, she knows she'll have to overcome her anxiety issues.

Despite her attempts to fit in and be sociable, she keeps some distance between herself and others. This is because she's to return to Grimm some day. Having experienced loss, she doesn't want to make close friends only to put them and herself through heartbreak.

Background: As a mermaid princess of the ocean kingdom Perlene, in Grimm, Nerissa frequently grew bored with her restrictive life. She was the kind of person who'd sneak past guards to explore caves and shipwrecks, only to be dragged back to worried, angry parents. Stories of the outside world intrigued her, particularly the parallel world of Earth. As the eldest and favourite child, as well as future queen, this put a great deal of pressure on her. So, while she gradually embraced her duties, she sought freedom in these stories.

Until an event made her understand the meaning of the phrase "be careful what you wish for". As the Evil Queen's influence spread through Grimm, monster attacks became more and more frequent. One such monster attacked the castle, killing many of the guards. Nerissa's father was injured, and her mother fought bravely to protect her family as well as the other inhabitants, but ended up perishing. The monster was eventually defeated, but the losses were considerable.

Although Nerissa's father made a full recovery, he became fearful of what was to happen to the kingdom, and his beloved firstborn daughter. So, he made the tough decision to send her to Charm until the conflict settled, even though this meant he'd be unlikely to ever see her again. Obviously she wouldn't be able to live there as a mermaid, so he paid a sea witch to turn her into a human. Nerissa ended up adopted by a kind but lonely couple who were unable to have biological children, and believed her to be an ordinary if heavily troubled teenager.

Her first few months in Charm were difficult, to say the least. Her movements were clumsy, and she could barely walk down the street without getting tired. She knew nothing of Earth technology, which got her bullied at school. And of course there was the trauma of losing her mother, being separated from the rest of her family, and having her body drastically altered. Still, she did the only thing she could - adapt. She's lived in Charm for a year and a half so far, trying to fit in, while awaiting the day she can return to Grimm.

Potential Quirks:

• She's much more at ease around water. Any sufficiently large body of water - the sea, lakes, swimming pools, etc.
• Carries around a writing pad and pen at all times, for when her voice stops working.
• She's curious about Earth technology, but tends to have mishaps with it, like taking accidental photos of the ground, or hitting reply all.

Abilities (for civilian form): Nerissa has high resistance to the cold, and can hold her breath underwater for much longer than the average human.

Powers (for hero form): Water manipulation. She can pull water from the air or a nearby source, shaping it into high-pressure jets, or spheres that can trap enemies for a brief while. With time and practice, she'll be able to create multiple, stronger jets.

While in hero form, she can also turn back into a mermaid at will. Shifting her legs into a tail (and vice versa) takes about 10 seconds, during which time she's vulnerable, so it helps to have someone watching her back.

Lastly, her hero form grants her a weapon, namely a crystalline trident. If it breaks, she can re-summon it, although doing so takes some magical energy.

Fairy Tale Character: The Little Mermaid

Other:

• Is vegetarian, and particularly abhors the thought of eating fish, as they're so physiologically close to merfolk. She doesn't mind what others eat though. Her favourite food is seaweed, and she loves veggie sushi.
• Takes anti-anxiety medication, and is getting counselling, although for obvious reasons she can't tell her counsellor the full story of her past or her mother's death. She's unsure how well the treatment will work for this reason.
• Likes to sing, and is good at it, but because of her issues she's unable to do so in front of an audience.

@LuckyBlackCat

Accepted!

<Snipped quote by Dragonfly 9>

I would say for Precognition, she can't use really use it at will. This can only work if she either focuses and uses it through a ritual (like tarot card reading etc.), or if her life, or someone else's life, is in danger.

For Object Creation, she can't use it to create living beings, and she can't make anything large (like a car). She can only make things that a person can hold in one or two hands.

@Guardian Angel Haruki

Aight, also accepted! :D

Magical Fairy Tale Squad ~ The RP

Name: Sophia
Age: 17
Gender: Female
Appearance(Civilian AND Superhero):

Civilian

Superhero

Personality(Also detail the potential changes in your character's personality as a hero if that's a thing!): As a civilian, Sophia is a very introverted individual. She's a quiet and shy girl, but she is hardworking and kind. That said, this combination of traits means that she can be quite a doormat. She is also seen as an easy target for bullying.

As a superhero, Sophia would have much more confidence. As a civilian, Sophia would shrink at any challenge or even the slightest insult. As a superhero, she can evenly match any challenge with wit and foresight.

Background: Sophia is the eldest child of three in a normal, but busy, family. There seemed to be hardly any time to rest. Sophia never minded helping her parents by watching over her two siblings and taking care of chores. Her father is a lawyer, and her mother is a doctor. So, the both of them were always busy. But it was clear that the both of them loved Sophia and their siblings. They never forgot anyone's birthday and always took time to attend events that involved their children.

That said, even with a normal family and a happy life, there are still problems.

When Sophia isn't taking care of her siblings or dealing with schoolwork, her free time is always filled up with extracurricular activities her parents signed her up for, many of which are sports or arts.

While she wasn't popular by any means in school, and didn't have very many friends, she did well academically. Her family and the school board encouraged her to join the student council. That would allow her more time to study, and her parents wouldn't feel the need to pressure her into another extracurricular activity.

However, she ended up as treasurer. Sophia knew that she wasn't ever going to become student council president because trying to get that role is essentially trying to win a popularity contest. That was never going to happen with Sophia.

With how busy her life has been, even now, Sophia has never really thought about what she wanted to do with her life. It's always been about fulfilling her obligations to the people around her...

Their wishes were her commands,

Potential Quirks: *Normally, her voice is quiet, but when she tells a tale, her voice grows to a normal volume and confident as she weaves a tale for those who listen.
*She may say what someone is about to say. It's scarily accurate.
*Having a constant and nauseating sense of Deja Vu.

Abilities(for civilian form): *Literary Mastery
Powers (for hero form; make sure it relates to a fairy tale of some sort!) : *Precognition
*Object Creation

Fairy Tale of Inspiration(if that's a thing)/Fairy Tale Character You Are(again, if that's a thing): One Thousand and One Nights; Scheherazade and/or Genies

Other: Ask her about any book or story she's read. She can tell you everything about it!

@Guardian Angel Haruki

Almost accepted! May I ask what her limits for precognition and object creation are, and how those two abilities work?

<Snipped quote by Dragonfly 9>

It’s true, I do usually prefer to play queer guys, and as much as the idea of making Snow White as a cute little gay boy excites me… I have played female characters before and think I could handle it. People on the internet used to mistake me for a girl once upon a time.

So… how’s the backstory going to work? I’m guessing she was brought to Charm by the Huntsman, or the 7 Dwarves…

Was she raised knowing she’s Snow White or no?

And for powers, she’s definitely going to have the ability to have animals do her bidding, particularly by singing.

@Crimson Flame

I think she was brought over as a baby by one of The Queen's defective servants, actually. So instead of growing up and having to deal with The Queen's wrath, she has to deal with high school's wrath. xD

No, she didn't. The servant kept that a secret as a misguided way of "protecting her".

Okay, that's genuinely hilarious. I love that! xD

Magical Fairy Tale Squad ~ The RP

Interested! Looking at the CS and how the hero form works, I see this is essentially a magical girl/boy RP, which is a big plus.

@LuckyBlackCat

Yep, it basically is!

So uh… if no one else wants it, I’m willing to be Snow White.

@Crimson Flame

Oooh!

I mean, you could wait for someone who's interested in playing Snow White to come along, but I do realize that that's a big gamble on all our parts.

Still, though, I have three main options for you if you really wanna play as Snow White:

1.) Play her as a cis female.
2.) Make him a trans man.
3.) Make him a cis male.

(Options 2 and 3 are there because I notice you really like to play male characters, Crimson.)

Anyway, if you have any more options of your own/want me to elaborate on mine, I'm both for both! Just ping me on here, okay? ;)
