Fire Emblem: Fates ~ Entwined

@Grey Garon's portrayal was indeed cringe-worthy a lot of the time so I'd like to make him more rounded and less janky. I'll probably expand on him and Mikoto when I'm done with an intro I'm making for another RP. I also have a more clear image of the roles I'm intending to play so I want to work on those too, today and tomorrow. -crosses fingers- I just found out my brother is being shipped out with special ops this July and my eye exam uncovered some new issues with me retina and its impending detachment so I'd love a distraction. ^^;

"Maybe we should just stay here, Harry...grow old."

Harry & Hermione

She's the brightest witch, he's the chosen one.
She's clever and he's courageous.
They're both kind, generous and loyal.

~ ~ ~ ~

About myself and my expectations:

~ I'm 26 and female, just graduated college. Better late than never.

~ I play males and females and am happy to double up as Draco or maybe Ron.

~ I am seeking a Harry Potter to my Hermione Granger.

~ I would like a post once a week and I would like that post to be roughly 4-5 paragraphs on average.

~ It would be easier if you're capable of writing sexual scenes. Although I foresee sex happening very far in the future, it helps to know that it's a milestone the characters can achieve together, than just gloss over.

~ My partner should be invested in the story and its progress and capable of communicating ideas that help progression.

~ ~ ~ ~

Plots: Below are some plots I have though they're more like jumping off points, as I'd prefer to discuss longterm goals and such with my partner. I don't want either of us to feel like we're doing most of the plot progression after all. Some of these are crossover ideas, some are AU and some take place in the series. If you've only read the books or have only seen the films, that's fine, just be sure to tell me so I can better plot with you. I'll likely be adding/editing these as time goes on.

Deception

Harry and Hermione have known each other since their first year at Hogwarts. That year they became friends and overcame several obstacles from learning Quidditch to fending off a troll in the girl's lavatory. They then found the fabled stone, then went on to the Chamber of Secrets. They uncovered the mystery of Harry's past and its ties to Sirius Black and used a Time Turner to change a dark night's events. They trained for a dangerous wizard tournament and went on to teach themselves spells in secret. Throughout all of the challenges and deadly encounters, both Harry and Hermione have remained by one another's side faithfully and without question.

And yet...Ron grabbed Hermione's attention while Harry was busy with his own troubles, while Ginny was there to comfort Harry when he needed it. Something happened in their sixth and seventh year that pushed Harry and Hermione apart. Maybe they both realized their feelings for one another and had to distract themselves somehow? Maybe they figured their friendship wasn't strong enough to endure life's many changes and challenges?

Now they're on the run from Deatheaters and spies who working for Snape as well as Voldemort. Things between the trio are shaky as they try to get clues from the locket for the whereabouts of the remaining horcruxes. Anxiety and fear swim through the air of the tent as Ron snaps and leaves Harry and Hermione behind. Hermione can't believe how things had suddenly crumbled in her hands. She doesn't love Ron, doesn't even consider going after him. In fact, it feels like a weight has been lifted from her shoulders. She feels awful and looks back to Harry who just lost his best mate too. Ron wasn't the only one making sacrifices though. Both she and Harry have suffered too.

Little do either know that Ron has gone to Voldemort to ensure his family is kept safe, in exchange for becoming a double spy to lure Harry back to the school for one final confrontation. While Ron is gone, Harry and Hermione turn to one another for comfort as they survive in the wilderness. They move from camp to camp, only venturing to muggle villages to restock supplies. Though there is danger lurking in the shadows,
both souls find it difficult to hide their true feelings from one another.

Complying

In Harry's first year, he has been assigned to Slytherin House. He and Draco form a friendship while Ron bcomes their target for bullying. In Gryffindor, Ron builds a quick resentment to Harry Potter who seems to have everything handed to him, even somehow making Quidditch at such a young age. Meanwhile Hermione has been assigned to Ravenclaw and she does her best to stay out of trouble until Halloween when a troll is released. Hermione sees it going after Harry in the dungeons and she saves him. The two become friends, despite Draco's dislike for the mudblood.

The first year ends with Hermione, Draco and Harry finding the coveted stone. Draco begins to learn that perhaps he may not need to follow in his father's footsteps if all he sees is misery at his own home. Draco's father insists that Draco continue to befriend Harry in order to give him up to the Dark Lord. Draco isn't so sure about this. The stage is set for their second year as Luna and Ginny begin their first yeat at Hogwarts. We will juggle new dynamics, expectations and developments.

Doctor Who and Harry Potter

I'd love to do a crossover in which The Doctor (Ninth or Tenth) goes undercover at Hogwarts and finds Rose Tyler or maybe Martha Jones. I'd love for Harry and Hermione to tag along with them and go on awesome adventures in time and space.

Another idea I had was that Hermione is a Time Lady and goes by the name Professor. She has been attending Hogwarts and flying off in the TARDIS for many years now (so around their fifth or sixth year). Harry stumbles upon the TARDIS and she decides it's about time he learns the truth about her. They would travel around while still returning to Hogwarts to take care of classes and Voldemort, who is probably an alien as opposed to a Dark Lord.

Another other idea was that The Doctor picked up Hermione and is traveling with her, they go to Hogwarts by pure chance and she meets Harry, a wizard (Hermione would be a squib or maybe a witch with late stage signs of magical ability). The Doctor finds a new companion at Hogwarts, likely Rose or Martha depending on the incarnation of The Doctor. Meanwhile Hermione stays at school to help Harry.

Undercover

Taking place in the summer of their sixth and seventh year, Harry and Hermione decide to go undercover, into hiding in the muggle world. Voldemort is quickly rising to power and Harry has run out of time. Harry feels the stress of trying to be some powerful wizard who can stand up to him. Hermione and Harry decide to go on the hunt for horcruxes on their own as Voldemort destroys everything in his path to dominate the wizard and muggle way of life in Great Britain. In the meantime, Hermione runs a bookstore while Harry helps her. They keep training and hunting in secret, trying to get the courage to finally take down Voldemort.

Erosion

In Harry's second year, he failed to save Ginny and she died in the Chamber of Secrets. In Harry's third year, he failed to stop Sirius from being executed. And in his fourth year, he saw Cedric die. And in his fifth year, Ron's father is killed. Needless to say death seems to surround Harry and when his father dies, Ron has had enough of his best friend. Ron distances himself from Harry and demands that Hermione also wise up and do the same. She cannot.

Even though Harry feels like a pawn, like he's useless, he won't give up.

When he cannot stop Dumbledore from being killed, everyone has given up on Harry and his ability to save the wizarding world. Harry sinks into depression as Ron stays at Hogwarts during their seventh year. Hermione sides with Harry as they go on the hunt for horcruxes. This will be a lot more dark and depressing, I'd even like other characters to die along the way.

@LostBrotherGrimm Your banner here:



I haven't made Juicy's since she hasn't posted her character in the CS tab but when she does, I'll take that as her being "in" and make her one.

So now that we're all on board, I'll get started on my introduction and I'll also lay out how posts should look in terms of a nice uniform visualization. Don't worry it won't be anything complicated or time consuming. Expect the intro up within like...4 hours max, gotta find the right mood music and such.

Fire Emblem: Fates ~ Entwined

@Grey In terms of Nestra being neutral or no? I think Nestra would stay neutral. Though I don't really want to go into which places have/haven't surrendered to Nohr/Hoshido since it might be a bit time consuming. I'll probably find images for both kingdom's rulers. I think I'm actually toying with the idea that Mikoto is still alive and well and being corrupted, just as Garon is. But I'm also totally up for new rules since after so many playthroughs, it can get boring. In terms of the royal line of succession, I'll leave that up to you guys in terms of if you've got older siblings being groomed to rule, etc.

Though DF and I haven't discussed our side much, it looks like I may take the reigns there.

Seriously? They drink their blood? Jesus fuck. I don't mind keeping it.

@71452K Your intro will be a lengthy post leading into your character finding the pod, getting in, being put into automatic stasis and then waking up years later on the ship. I'll go into more detail soon but that's the gist of it.

I'm in California myself but I'm in the process of trying to move to Japan for a teaching gig hopefully starting this summer.

I haven't heard from our last one (Juicy) but I see myself able to kick us off this afternoon/tonight hopefully.

Chasing Demons in the Summer Sun ~

@Rockatiel Darn, okay. Thanks for letting me know.

@scrubnoppon Okay, without needing to hunt for a pic, I'd expect things to go a bit more quickly haha.

Correctors Connecting Collisions // C3_

Yep, it's a nice cyberpunk film (didn't capture the magic of the anime but it was still good enough I think). Hopefully we can get rolling soon.

A Fire Emblem Fates Based RP Anyone?

@Dynamo Frokane @BurningDaisies @Grey

Not done but I'm getting tired so I'll fiddle with it tomorrow but it's at least another place to converge. Feel free to claim a section in the CS tab for your character collections.

Fire Emblem: Fates ~ Entwined

..,Placeholder for Header...

GM Notes: This is a roleplay between myself, @Dynamo Frokane , @BurningDaisies and @Grey though I may accept one other person, it's unlikely as I'd prefer things to stay fairly compact.

RP Premise: Two kingdoms are at war with one another for have been for roughly seven years. Even so, not many can recall what actually broke the peace. Both kingdoms are powerful and have plenty of allies. And both kingdoms have folks who want to rebel and fight for the opposing side, for whatever reason. Unrest is an everyday feeling and many cities and towns are becoming new battlegrounds for the two kingdoms and their armies. After fighting for so long, the lands are becoming wastelands. Food is becoming scarce and so is the once flourishing population of the landmass.

Enter a group who knows where the true enemy lies. This group has been recently formed with some from both kingdoms. This group is led by a mysterious set of twins who claim the real enemy is the demon controlling the two rulers of each kingdom. These two twins have seen such destruction before and want to help bring peace to the land before all hope is truly lost. Together, they've convinced only a handful of people to fight for the innocent and to bring down the invisible hands which control the two kingdoms' fate.

We will be starting with our characters already companions. How your character was convinced is up to you. If your character comes with a sibling, retainer, servant, pet, etc, that is fine but you must include another sheet for it as well. I will be the two twins who hail from another world where the two demons have already ruined with their eternal rivalry. Our group will have a sanctuary where we will go to regroup, tend to our wounds, etc. As a note, there will be slice of life and action. There will also be a lot of travel and saving people, so don't go into this thinking it's all action or it's going to be boring. We should have a mix, ideally.

Hoshido will be a lively kingdom full of life and energy. Nohr will be a strict kingdom, will tough defenses. Both kingdoms are full of pride and tricky fighters. Since the four of us have knowledge of FE: Fates, I will no go into depth regarding the politics. However I will stress that unlike in Fates, supplies, food, morale and patience will be a lot more scarce. People are getting more desperate and bloodthirsty. Lots of lives have been lost in the fights that have broken out across the border between Hoshido and Nohr.

World Map: Below is our map with labels. Please refer to it as needed. It is a large picture.

Map

Quests: Throughout our journey there will be optional quests to gain money, items and food. I will have a separate hider for when we're ready.

Inventory: We will be using a very slim inventory system. Things like clothes won't be counted but it is a means to ensure a character doesn't magically have everything they need. If their sword breaks, they can't pull a new one out of thin air. If they're hurt and a healer isn't around, they either suffer or keep supplies on hand. I won't be strict with it and demand it be updated at all times, but the main six characters will need to use an inventory due to the land's current state.

Characters: I will be making us character banners for our major six characters, as such I would like you guys to try and find high quality pictures. By that I mean the pictures should be medium/large in size, lack any pixels, shouldn't be sketched or hand drawn etc. Below is a sheet which BD and I have tweaked together.

In the personality section list three positive traits and one negative.

In the Hopes/Fears list two for each.

In the Talents/Shortcomings list two for each as well, not pertaining to combat.

Romance: I think it's safe to say it's bound to happen. Our large cast should find romance, find heartache and find friendly rivalries. Should romance blossom, please take it to PMs but totally fill us in back here if anything DID happen. I don't really want offspring to happen though, so let's all pretend our characters have plenty of contraceptives in this war torn land.

Posting Expectations: We all have lives outside of the Guild. As such I don't need us to be spamming posts every day, that said I would love it if each person could manage at least one post every 7-10 days. I would also like it if our posts looked uniform so I will be giving a code for posts before we begin. Post size should be around 4-6 paragraphs for a major role. Any minor/side roles can have as much or as little attention as the writer decides.

Starting Point: As mentioned above, we will be starting with our characters having recently joined forces. Since I will be playing both outside twins, we will need to discuss how mine convinced yours to take a risk. That said our group will have just recently escaped a scuffled between both Hoshido and Nohr armies due to the two royal siblings having seemed to have betrayed their own blood.
