@Jerkchicken I like dumplings but ONLY dumplings? Not even any real meat, or fake meat like seitan? Where's the fruit or veggies? Wheat? Potatoes? VARIETY?! How can you only have one kind of thing?

The weirdest songs get lodged in my head. I haven't even listened to it in years and BAM suddenly Dominick the freaking Donkey is hee hawwing all across Italy in my brain.
So interested. Bit worried though considering... uh... Let me pull up the appropriate line.
“Fly! Fly! About with your ship and fly! Row, row, row for your lives away from this accursed shore.” “Compose yourself,” said Reepicheep, “and tell us what the danger is. We are not used to flying.” The stranger started horribly at the voice of the Mouse, which he had not noticed before. “Nevertheless you will fly from here,” he gasped. “This is the Island where Dreams come true.” “That's the island I've been looking for this long time,” said one of the sailors. “I reckoned I'd find I was married to Nancy if we landed here.” “And I'd find Tom alive again,” said another. “Fools!” said the man, stamping his foot with rage. “That is the sort of talk that brought me here, and I'd better have been drowned or never born. Do you hear what I say? This is where dreams—dreams, do you understand, come to life, come real. Not daydreams: dreams.” There was about half a minute's silence and then, with a great clatter of armour, the whole crew were tumbling down the main hatch as quick as they could and flinging themselves on the oars to row as they had never rowed before; and Drinian was swinging round the tiller, and the boatswain was giving out the quickest stroke that had ever been heard at sea. For it had taken everyone just that halfminute to remember certain dreams they had had—dreams that make you afraid of going to sleep again—and to realize what it would mean to land on a country where dreams come true.
It sounds super fun but there's a lot of horrific stuff out there. Whether it is mundane, mystic, or eldritch there is so much pure unadulterated nope. No idea who to pick as a helper though...
"DAAR LAS NI MORWITIJAAL..." The voice that speaks is like thunder and earthquakes. It comes from a man dressed in tattered purple robes and aged golden armor, floating in the air like a puppet dangling on its strings. What little of his visible flesh are withered grayish hands and feet and an impossibly thin waist. His face, however, is hidden behind a vibrant wooden mask. "NI SETKIIRJORI NU DAAR AAL OFANJIIK ZU'U ZOK."
"This is not Morwitjaal..." "None of my dolls yet this may entertain me more."
I'm interested but I need to narrow down who I'd want to RP as in this setting. You said no villains so people like Ganondorf or Bowser are out. Luigi's taken... NiGHTS is mentioned already as part of the npcs.
Here's a few questions while I sift through the characters: You said "hero" characters. Does this include party members and sidekicks or is it just the main player character? Digimon was originally a Tamagatchi-style electronic toy made. Could someone be a Digimon since it was originally a pet-raising game and there are many original setting Digimon games? What about villainous protagonists such as Marche from Final Fantasy Tactics Advance? They are the "hero". And what about a character such as a NetNavi who are digital beings rather than flesh-and-blood or metal-and-power? Would they be embodied? How would this effect their abilities?
This list will be altered over time as I rediscover settings and fandoms that I forgot to include on the list and removed if I remember or discover reasons why they may not be as enjoyable as I remembered.
About Me I am an old hand at roleplaying but between college and other issues I have fallen out of habit of composing long-posts and taking part in long-running plots. I am a gamer, an anime-fan, a mythology and fairy tale buff, and lover of fantasy and slowly discovering why my father enjoyed Science Fiction (specifically time travel) as much as he did. I am familiar with more possible Fandom roleplay settings than listed but some games are not as appealing to me as they once were and a few are more fascinating as they are than as they could be.
As a note: some of the most fun roleplays I have had were made up wholesale as we went along. This is because some took too long in the planning stages and some others petered out shortly after they began.
Rules
1. Please PM me if you are interested. 2. While I am capable of doing one-liners, I prefer paragraph posting. 3. These are not pairing RPs. While characters might fall in love or become interested in one another this is not the focus of the Rps. Platonic or antagonistic relationships are the name of the game here. 3b. I am not a erotic rper. While I am over 18 I have no interest in roleplaying sexual encounters. It could be that I might be asexual, it could be that I prefer to let the characters (if they are romantically involved) have some truly private time away from the eyes of any viewers including us, but it most likely be that there are plenty of other people who are more than willing to participate in such plots. I have roleplayed characters who wound up marrying and having children but we skipped over the sexual scenes as it was not important. The characters were. 4. I do not shy away from my characters being hurt or dying. Its sometimes the consequences of their actions. I’m not saying that they will all die automatically or every character should suffer or be killed by the score. Like anything in life it has the potential to happen and if it happens it can be dealt with after the fact or stopped by luck or effort. While characters are important, the story can go on. 4b. Paradoxically I have fallen out of practice at writing combat. I can make attempts to help move the story along but I am afraid that you cannot expect the best scenes on my part when it comes to a fight. 5. If necessary we can take on more characters each as needed in the roleplay. However it will have to be more-or-less an even split. They can be OCs in the fandom setting but if we are roleplaying canon characters the OCs will only serve as tertiary or background characters and help the plot move along.
Settings Colors notate what I have recently done, what I am interested in (but have little or its been a year since I've done it), and a point in-between.

There are many other fandom settings that while I enjoy to watch or read, I can’t see myself roleplaying. This includes Lord of the Rings and Puella Magi Madoka Magicka. Some, while I am familiar with them, I can’t stand most if not anyone plot relevant. This includes Berserk, JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure, Naruto, Death Note, and Dragonball. Some I am aware of but do not know well enough to be one of the characters myself but I have RPed with someone as another one of them. This includes Fate/stay night, Freedom Planet, and Overwatch.
@Raddum@Archmage MC On the topic of cartoon physics keep in mind that this applies to everyone in the Mario-verse but mostly seems to touch on "Rule of Funny" tropes (while Kingdom Hearts seems to restrict it to Black-and-White Era Disney characters). Think of the scene from the Who Framed Roger Rabbit movie where the bunny could only slip his hand out the handcuff when it was (from a bystander or troll's perspective) of being funny when he helped hold the table in place.
Then there's weird stuff like air/food/water ballooning up someone and hammers harmlessly burying a person in the ground to pull a Bugs Bunny style underground travel trick or to flatten them like a crushed can that somehow can still move in spite of being squeezed tight like a pressured metal spring.
So if the character is more along the lines of a 'comedy sidekick' they may be able to work the physics more often to their advantage/amusement but most might have some passive effects going on.
@Raddum The funny thing about the caves is that these are plant people. You'd think they'd be in forests more often but nope, underground or in grasslands! A lot of said jerks are also cowardly (see: diving back into their planthousething). River Zora are one of my most hated enemy types. Bubbles/Anti-Fairies are another. Screw both those guys!
@Archmage MC This wouldn't be a derivative of the anime or any specific game. Almost every game, anime, and manga is set in the general Digimon multiverse rather than a single world so you can get away with more stuff in regards to the exact setting. There are universal constants but events differ.
Sora. Also KH1. And depending on how you view Anti-Form it also is a thing in KH2. And technically the events of Chain of Memories and most of KH2 since he doesn't have Roxas back inside him until near the end of KH2.
There are a lot of types of cartoons. Do you mean silly or cartoon-physics? Or something else?
@Raddum I think you mean "sometimes newbies just make bigger ones". As for MM Deku looks, I figure that they could afford the time and energy to do their 'hair' up in more elaborate styles. It could be a geographical aspect (Terminan Swamp vs Hyrulian Forest) but it could also be that we see outcasts and assholes more than any normal member of Deku society. Also see Lake Zora (Ocarina of Time) vs River Zora (any aggressive Zora that shoots lasers from the water).
