((Henlo, I'm back!...finally. :'3

But yes, here's a new IC for you all! I just noticed that all of the RPs/ICs currently don't interest me that much, so I decided to make one! :D

This one's a bit darker than my usual. It's a post-apocalyptic, dark fantasy that draws upon fairy tales and maybe some Tolkien, but, I don't know about that yet. The fairy tale inspiration is a definite element in this, though.

Right now, I'm looking for at least 4-5 RPers/characters, though I'm okay with more of them if that does actually happen.))

Setting/Plot Summary:

  • As I said before, the world in which the story takes place in is post apocalyptic, which means that, at least several centuries ago, everything went to shit-
  • The sky is always a dark gray(and no one has seen the sun in centuries), the five kingdoms that still exist are ruled by incompetent monarchs who are manipulated and controlled by five evil knights, who are the true rulers of those kingdoms, monsters roam the places between kingdoms and less developed civilizations, with some more intelligent/adaptable monsters either directly raiding farms or integrating into society through shapeshifting but still keeping their hunger for non-monsters, food is hard to grow because of said monsters and dark gray sky, meaning that not everyone gets enough food to at least survive…you get the gist already, don’t you?
  • But yeah, everything’s terrible, and it’s hard for most people to have hope that things will get better, especially since every time when something good starts to happen, it gets stomped out-
  • And the world they live in notices this, too, so much so that, right before the start of the RP, a spiritual manifestation of her consciousness appears in your characters' dreams, has a conversation with them about their want to change the world for the better, and their strongest virtue(Humor, Courage, Trust, Hope, anything like that). Right before she left, she asked them if they were up to the task of defeating the five evil knights(who used to be good people, but then something happened to them that turned them corrupt; she doesn't exactly remember what, though), and either try to uncorrupt, imprison, or kill them and find some other people to rule/govern the citizens of the five kingdoms. Their top virtues are important not just because they'll keep them going if they accept this quest, but also because they'll help them reignite hope in the kingdoms' people, and make them want a better tomorrow again, instead of just living in despair and hopelessness.
  • The world is then about to say something again based on your character's response, but then your characters suddenly wake up(it's up to you guys where your characters all are in the beginning) when they hear screaming coming from outside.
  • When you go outside(due to curiosity or otherwise), you see a monster of some sort(which is different for each character, if you guys decide to initially be separated from each other), and its terrorizing everyone it can get its paws/claws/hands/whatever on. It seems like a normal monster attack at first, but then it sees you, and you realize:
  • It's not an ordinary monster who wants to attack anyone it gets its hands on. It's primary target is YOU.


((And that's all I have so far! If you have any ideas in fleshing all of that out, just tell me here/in the OOC/in DMs, and I'll see what you're talking about and figure out whether your ideas are appropriate for the RP! :D))

If you haven't figured it out yet, yes, this world is mostly in an equivalent to medieval times, thanks to the apocalypse and all the bad shit that's stopping anyone and everyone from innovating/making new technology. It doesn't help that the five kingdoms are now the opposite of what they were before the apocalypse(The Kingdom of Fire is now one of Ice and is occupying a frigid tundra instead of a (mostly) dry desert with loads of massive volcanoes, The Kingdom in The Forest is now basically ruins with little people living there, surrounded by dead and decaying plants and cursed, decaying and almost skeletal animals, etc., etc.), but, since it's been centuries for when they've been that way, the common people don't really remember how the world was before everything went to shit(the knights do, but they're not gonna restore any of that), and have been adapting and changing over time to suit the new hostile environments. Still doesn't mean they like them, though, which definitely shows in how they love talking about and/or reading the fairy tales and legends that were inspired by old memories of the world pre-apocalypse.
@Dragonfly 9 You could help us get momentum again if you post that. But it also depends on whether @Hyyde322 is up for getting the story in motion.


Yeah, I think I'll wait for that. Don't want to try to revive a RP that its creator is potentially not even invested in anymore! :'3
Sorry I haven't really had my eye on the guild all too much recently and I just realised how long its been since anyone posted here. Are we waiting on a collab or a specific post?


Yeah, I haven't, either.

Am I holding everyone up by not posting Crow's visit to Gideon?
*kicks down the door* Alright, alright, alright! lET'S DO THIS!!

I'm still thinking of which character I'll make for this, tbh. I'll tell everyone what it is when one of the character ideas I have gets more concrete, though!
Consider me interested as well! :D
uhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, you guys can totally ignore all of this. i'm just exploring/writing about character stuff here. :'D

Maximillion Barker "Max"/Loyal Friend:

Having been born in a timeline where a world-wide scale apocalypse happened to the world when he was just 11, Max had to learn very quickly how to survive and keep himself from dying horribly. Thankfully, he was in a rather large family, who helped him adapt pretty quickly to not attracting attention from the horrific monsters outside, and taught him how to be a survivor of the now hostile world.

Of course, this didn't last long.

A month after Max turned 12, he was sent by his family to get some left over medicine from a long abandoned store, due to his mom suddenly dying from a very fast acting illness that was from said monsters. He had to sneak his way past the many monsters prowling around in the wrecked neighborhood, and almost got killed by at least some of them. However, he finally reached the store after about a half an hour, and when the door didn't work, he tried to find other ways in. He was then suddenly knocked out by a man in a stained, white lab coat, who had been stalking him all the way to the store...

After that, Max still remembers some bits and pieces from here and there, but nothing concrete. His first real memory at that point was escaping the lab he was in for some reason, fighting the man in the stained lab coat, and rushing outside, feeling free for the first time in a while-

Then, he saw what he now looked like...

And it wasn't Max.

It was a monster, and not only that, but a monster who would've been right at home with the other monsters, who caused the apocalypse he'd been recently living through in the first place.

And.

He.

Screamed.

((Max is a very curious, yet also terrified and confused preteen. He's supposed to be 14, but acts like a 12 year old due to a rather large memory gap when the experiments on him took place, and he looks like a tall, fully grown beast, with parts from a whole bunch of different animals. He hates his new form, and wants to stop looking like a monster and scaring people, but he can't turn back. Believe me, he's tried. He tries to be kind and compassionate, and also tries to be gentle, but he's not really used to anything about his new form yet, and often intimidates people and acts out due to his overall confusion, anger, and fear. At the end of the day, he'd really just like to go back home to his family and never have to deal with the apocalypse ever again, but he just doesn't know how.

When he befriends the Titans and chooses to fight in order to protect people, he chooses the hero name "Loyal Friend", because that's all he wants to be for his newfound friends: a loyal friend.))
@Dragonfly 9 I was counting you in, so glad to see you're still on board!!

Still working on getting everything drafted - I haven't even started on character sheets yet so you still have time to figure out who you'd like to play. If you can manage it, you can play more than one character so if there's a standstill in decision making you can do both if you wish. If you're a novice or not as comfortable juggling characters do not feel pressured to do more than one. Just know if you can't choose and you wish to do both that's perfectly acceptable.


Alright, sounds good! I'll still think about it.
I'm still here! Currently thinking about doing the wind girl rival, or beastly/psychic street rat.
Henlooooooooooooooooooooooo, I'm interestedddddddddddddddddddddddddd! :3

Currently thinking of my character either being a grumpy dryad(or dryad-inspired character), or a street rat who's either a beastly experiment but still has human levels of sentience, or just has near uncontrollable psychic abilities initially and who doesn't usually use them because their uncontrollable. Or maybe a hero with wind powers who starts out being antagonistic/having a rivalry with at least one of the Teen Titans? I don't know, I just have a lot of ideas for this.
Alright so now that we have most of the pleasantries out of the way we can move things along to meeting in bradena. If everyone is still here I will post next Monday as I am out of town


I still have to write Crow meeting Gideon again, but sounds good!
