Bio







Hi there, a little bit about me I am 28 year old female from Pennsylvania I have been RPing for the past seven years or so originally starting in WoW and then moved onto forum RPs and found this site back before the great crash of the old site. I am a casual writer and will usually write up to three or four paragraphs though I always match what my partners will usually write to me, though you will never see me write any kind of one liners, though most days I am usually doing group RPs.

Sierra turned to look at Willow as she approached her and blushed slightly as she looked the girl in the eyes, she had to admit that she didn't see her approaching and asking her out on a date and smiled. She was attracted to Willow but with everything that had been going on in the last few days she didn't really think about it much.. "I'd actually like that a lot." Sierra said as she quickly leaned in and gave Willow a loving kiss as she continued to hold her hand.

Gabriella looked at Megan as she got down on one knee and proposed to her, she smiled as she knelt down and pulled Megan into a passionate kiss. "I would love you to be my queen we have a lot to plan for then my love." She said as she gently ran a hand through Megan's hair, Arthur smiled at his daughter he was glad that she had found someone.

Merlin took the lamp and looked it once over as he turned his attention towards the group some of them wanted to return to their normal lives which was understandable. "It'll take sometime to figure something out but i'll be able to make it work it'll take a lot of magic to create something to allow you all to come and go as you please." Merlin said, but it was something that was doable actually and if the others that wanted to stay they could have that option as well to.

Prologue One Month Later..


It took a little bit over a month everyone was invited to Camelot in order to celebrate the marriage between Megan Pendragon and her new wife. There was a lot of dancing, music and drinking to be had as just about everyone from around Arcadia came to the wedding and all of the guests presented gifts to the newly weds as well to.

Merlin had spent most of that time but he was able to create some enchanted rings for everyone, and handed them all out to each of the kids. The rings would be able to transport them to and from Arcadia to Earth whenever they chose to come and visit their friends and family from both worlds.

Layla: Layla ultimately chose to stay in Arcadia she wanted to spend as much time as she could with her father, him and his merry men spent a lot of time helping those who needed it and rebuilt their destroyed homes or retaking towns from a few of Maleficent's remaining forces scattered around the countryside. Layla would occasionally come home and visit her sister and Rose whenever she could between fights against other threats.

Jack: Jack ultimately chose to stay in Arcadia as well to, and one day was approached by Merlin seeing the potential in the son of Rumpelstiltskin, and he offered to teach him and bring him on as an apprentice. Seeing as he needed to eventually pass on his knowledge onto someone else and he was the perfect candidate.

Rosalia: Rosalia was approached both by her parents Rapunzel and Flynn, they both offered her a place in their home if she chose to stay with them or not. Rosalia was given the ring to come and go as she pleased much like all of the others did, but it was completely up to her on what she wanted to do.

Megan & Gabriella: Megan and Gabriella are both happily married together now, it took a few more weeks but Lancelot was eventually able to make a full recovery from his injuries. He approached her one day and offered to train her under his wing and took her on as his personal squire. It would take sometime but Megan would become a full knight and upon King Arthur and Queen Queen Guineveres passing the title of Queen would go to Megan as well.

Cassiopeia & Rose: Cassi and Rose are happily dating now and they both chose to return to their normal lives back on Earth, but with the enchanted rings Merlin had given the two of them they could come and go as they pleased. Red Rose's mother stayed with Robin Hood's men and they would occasionally help with retaking some land as well between that and spending time with her sister Layla.

Mathew & Colby: Colby and Mathew are still happily dating one another they returned to Wonderland with their fathers the Mad Hatter and Cheshire Cat, it took sometime but they were able to retake the land from the Queen of Hearts was eventually ousted. After the land was retaken there were constant tea parties pretty much daily and life was normal in Wonderland once again.

Sierra & Willow: Sierra and Willow would start happily dating each other, though the relationship was long distance but Sierra would always come and visit Willow and her mother. Life in Atlantica was back to normal as well, and the two kingdoms between Aurora's and Atlantica became very close allies.

Life in Arcadia slowly started to return to normal with pockets of Malfecient's followers around the world rumors however started to circulate that they were now following Rumple. With rumored sightings around Arcadia but nothing concrete though some of them had their magic removed, the land was still full of magic and mystery. He would one day make a return and continue what Maleficent had started but only time would tell.



Bethany Bell


Asteroid M.
Skills: Shadow Manipulation & Soldifcation





Bethany groaned when she couldn't use her powers to blind Cortez at all which was really annoying as she ignored Robert's yelling but she kept her eyes on the walls seeing that Mary was using her powers to manipulate the plants and keeping the walls in place. If Magneto's powers continued to go out of control she didn't want to end up being sucked out into space or something like that. Bethany decided to try another tactic on Cortez as she extended her hand outward towards him.

She tried to use her powers and bring him down to his knees only for nothing to happen, she wasn't sure if it was because of Cortez or not, but she tried again. It did work however her aim was off and instead she ended up targeting Max, and accidentally yanked him and dragged him across the floor slightly. "Sorry didn't mean to do that." Bethany said to Max, luckily he still seemed to have control over his power still.




Carolina Reed


Location: Asteroid M.
Skills: Astral Projection & Possession





Carolina tried to possess Cortez she briefly had him for a second only for her to be forcefully ejected out of Cortez's body, normally she would have returned back to her body if someone managed to force her out. But something was off as Carolina found herself floating around the room. She watched as everyone continued to fight against Cortez, she winced slightly when Bethany accidentally used her powers on Max. She tried to swoop in and possess Cortez again however nothing happened at all.

She tried again and the same thing happened again as she flew through Cortez's body and how the other end and nothing happened again, she knew that he was most likely using his powers against her. She hoped that Guin would be able to try and take control of Cortez or someone else would be able to take him out as she floated there.



Madalyne Crane


Location: Limbo, Witchfire's Castle.
Skills: N/A
Grimoire: Demon Form.





Madalyne closed her eyes as she got glimpses of the others pasts, both Max and Jack would get a glimpse from one of her childhood memories, it was back when she was three years old and she was trick or treating with her half sister, her mother Amara and Edus. They were all having fun she was dressed up as a witch funnily enough at the time. She shook her head slightly when the portal was opened, as Madalyne started to think about it and turned to Annika who seemed to want to stay behind. "Go with the others, i'll stay behind. I can handle this place more anyway." Madalyne said, she had been in Limbo once before in the past and could handle the dangers here and she could pass for a demon here anyway.

She looked at her father's body once more she wanted to give him a proper send off and she didn't want to leave his body like this for some demon to mess with. If they can recruit Magik to help prevent Ananym's plans she could bring her back hopefully once everything is all said and done, she also wanted to try and hunt S'ym down and get her revenge for Ed's death as well to. "I'll find the other woman that Ananym took and the rest of you try and find Magik and bring her back here and hopefully I should be back home." Madalyne suggested she knew that the Rule of Three was important and she didn't want anyone else to get hurt either.




Carolina Reed


Location: Limbo, Witchfire's Castle, Creepy Library
Skills: Divination





Carolina quickly started to scan around for any useful books, they all looked very ancient and all of them were in very old languages that she didn't know, nor had time to try and translate any of it really. There were a few hiding spots she could try and hide under some tables, or behind some nearby bookshelves. She turned to look over her shoulder and hid behind a nearby shelf when she heard Ananym's voice as she burst out of the room carrying Strange's corpse around with her. She also spotted three tigers that were summoned and started to sniff around for her. Which she couldnt fight against as Carolina started to panic slightly as she kept moving forward until she spotted one of those stepping discs.

Carolina looked over her shoulder once more as she thought about it, staying in a library with three tigers and her demonic ex girlfriend trying to hunt her down. Or step through the disc, and enter some other place within Limbo she didn't want to stay in here any longer than she needed to, and hopefully get as much distance as possible from Ananym. Carolina sighed to herself and decided to just make the blind jump through the portal and hoped that the portal would transport her somewhere safe and went through.



Diana Novikova

Costume: Annabeth Chase
Skills: N/A





Diana was really happy to see that her little brother was alive and well, the haunted house felt so real she could feel every time her evil twin stabbed her. She held the hug a little bit longer until she felt someone else hug her from behind causing Diana to jump slightly and she turned around to see that it was just Dorian. "Don't jump on me like that after being scared in that damn haunted house.." Diana said as she would let out a slightly annoyed sigh. All that mattered right now was that her brother was still alive and well which was good then, she just wanted to enjoy the rest of the night.

Diana noticed that Cassie was still inside of the haunted house, she really didn't want to go back in there, but she knew Cassie and wanted to help out her friend. "I'll go in with you guys if you need my help." Diana offered to Kate and America, then she paused when Diana heard Headmaster Coulson's voice as he started the announcements for the evening. Diana couldn't help but smile she was glad that their team had made it on this year. She then looked at her brother there might be a point during the contest that she'd could end up fighting against her brother. Diana was happy to know that April had won Savior of the Avenger's Academy, along with Leah and Sabine.

Madalyne looked at Danni for a moment as he suddenly started to go on a tangent about Swift Wind and his connection to She-Ra in the show which made her smile slightly and shake her head. He was always like that for as long as she had known him since she came to this school, she leaned back slightly as she looked at all of her friends at the table. When Coulson stepped up and started to make the announcements for the evening for the teams going into the Contest of Champions. Madalyne couldn't help but smile as she looked over at April their team was officially in now.

Along with the rest of their little friend group as Madalyne looked at everyone there, she wasn't sure what to think about going up against all of their friends if they ended up having to fight one another. Then Coulson announced the Saviors this year as Madalyne looked at April, Sabine and Leah and smiled at the three of them she was actually really happy for the three of them. "Congrats you guys!" Madalyne said happily to the three of them it would be interesting to see the three of them dancing all together.








San Fransico, Sierra Trail:

"Alright then lets head on back then." Damon said as he turned back and started to head back down towards the little rest area that the group decided to take a break at. When Damon came back he noticed that the conversation that Niah had didn't look good at all, as Niah caught a brief glance of the little shockwave that Nancy had created and the Iris Message was quickly shut off. Persephone looked Andy and smiled at her.

"Of course i'll tell him." She said to Andy as her attention turned over towards Niah and quickly made her way over towards her sensing that something had gone wrong. "Is everything okay?" The goddess asked Niah, she didn't hear anything from the conversation that Niah had with Nancy.

"The area seems to be pretty clear for now if you all are ready to move out." Damon said he then went over and sat down on a nearby bench looking at everyone that was there. If the group needed more time that was fine he could wait as well to as Damon watched the two puppies playing with each other.




Kiera Donovan


Location: Atlantis
Skills: Hydrokinsis.





Poseidon frowned slightly when he heard that his daughters didn't get much sleep last night but he could understand the two of them did go through quiet a lot the last few hours. "I'm sorry to hear that, hopefully once you two are back at camp you'll have some rest then." Poseidon said to the two of them as he went about and started to eat some of his breakfast knowing that the two of them would have to head back to camp pretty soon. Kiera was more than eager to just get back to camp and to see everyone once they made it back home, she then started to wonder how everyone else was doing in their own quests right now then her father spoke up once again.

"I've also arranged transport for the two of you to get back to Camp Half-Blood safely." He said as Kiera smiled she was glad that he was willing to help them get back home safely. "Thank you." Kiera said as their father nodded towards her as she started to finish eating the rest of her breakfast. "Also Hercules has requested to join the two of you back if you two want him." Poseidon said Kiera wasn't expecting that but the cyclops seemed to be really nice anyway. "I'm fine with bringing him back home with us." Kiera said as she looked at Sera wondering if she wanted the same thing as well to.




Kristin Reynolds


Location: Las Vegas, Lotus Hotel & Casino
Skills: N/A





Kristin was knocked back hitting against a nearby wall due to the shockwave that Nancy had created around her, she would let out a slight groan as she started to sit up slightly. Some of the nearby slot machines were damaged as well to as a bunch of coins came falling out of the machines and onto the ground. This sent some of the guests nearby to scramble and as many of them as possible, Janelle would end up bumping into Demi by accident of all people. "Is everyone alright?" Kristin asked looking at everyone else there, for Nancy the Iris Message was quickly gone due to the shockwave she made and she was able to hear once more from everyone around her.

Anya shot Cassian once more with her laser gun for good measure as he decided to holster his weapon and smirked at him as she shrugged slightly. "Been here for awhile now, but lets find my brother and go somewhere else." Anya said as she started to head further into the laser tag range taking out a few other players, until she found her brother pinned down behind some cover and noticed a few more trying to aim at him waiting for him to come out.

Layla Hood


Location: The Moors
Skills: N/A





Sierra decided to follow Megan deeper into the castle, the area was filled with smoke and it was a bit hard to actually see but she was still able to see enough and followed Megan through the castle. It didn't take to long until they were finally in the throne room of Maleficent. Just in time to see her striking Maddie, the wound didn't look to bad but he'd need some stitches by the looks of it Sierra quickly ran over towards him and helped Maddie back up to his feet. "Are you alright?" She asked him, just as Megan went in and took a few swings at Maleficent managing to get her on the third strike.

"You will die like the rest of them." Maleficent said as she took a swing at Megan managing to hit her in the arm with her sword. It would leave a nasty gash on her arm but nothing fatal really as Rosalia took the lamp and made the second wish. Sierra watched as Rosalia pulled out her notepad to an empty page. "Easy enough, just make sure you don't loose that." The genie said as he snapped his fingers, and Maleficent started to scream as she was quickly sucked into the notepad. She was now trapped inside of the notepad, and Rosalia could see her trying to get out and moved around as a drawing inside.

Layla watched as Rosalia made her wish and watched the villain quickly getting sucked into the notepad, she started to relax as she looked over at the others who started to come into the room. That meant that they had one more wish to use Maleficent was defeated now which was a good thing then. She knew that the genie probably wanted to be free from his duties and granting everyone wishes as she turned towards him. "I guess i'll make the last wish then." Layla said as she looked at him. "I wish that you were free, and to put that notepad in there." Layla said as the genie looked very happy and smiled.

"Thank you." He said as he snapped his fingers, and the lamp quickly sucked the notepad out from Rosalia's hand and into the lamp effectively sealing Maleficent away for good just as it fell to the ground. "Looks like my job is done now thank you all for freeing me, and if you ever need me feel free to reach out." The genie said as he quickly used his magic and disappeared Layla then went over and picked up the lamp and looked at everyone. "I guess it's all over now then." Layla said smiling slightly as she handed the lamp over to Merlin.

"It is all finally over now thanks to all of you." Merlin said as he looked at everyone. "I know some of you want to go back you are free to go back to your lives here or you are more than welcome to stay here if you'd like." Merlin said as Layla looked over at her sister, which ever she decided she'd follow her no matter what really. Sierra looked over at her father and smiled towards him she wanted to stay here with her parents. "I'm going to stay here." Layla said as she looked over at Willow and smiled at her hoping that she'd stay as well to.

Diana continued to run as she could hear her evil doppelganger continued to cackle Diana managed to find a place to hide behind and took a deep breath. Then there was a brief flash of light as her doppelganger teleported herself a few feet in front of her with a bow already aimed at her. Diana cried out in pain as her evil twin shot an arrow into her shoulder, feeling it going through and imbedding itself into the wall, pinning her to it. Diana was about to try and yank the arrow off of her, when the next arrow flew and landed into her other shoulder, Diana started to panic as she tried to use her powers to get free but she couldn't. Her evil twin slowly started to walk up to her slowly with an arrow in her hand now.

Her evil twin just continued to cackle and didn't say anything to her, as her evil twin then started to stab her repeatedly in the stomach, over and over again, until Diana's vision started to go dark. A few seconds later Diana found herself stumbling out of the exit of the haunted house. Diana looked down at herself she didn't appear to have any marks or wounds on her at all which felt weird she could feel just about everything. As Diana walked out she wasn't paying much attention and accidentally bumped into her younger brother causing Diana to jump slightly. When she saw Percy again Diana quickly pulled him into a very tight hug, she was really happy to see him. "Are you okay Percy?" Diana asked him she then noticed America, Kate and Cassie nearby as well and waved at them they appeared to all be fine as well to.

Madalyne looked at Danni and smiled at him for a moment as he wrapped an arm around her which nearly made her spill all of the drinks that she was holding. "No problem at all you guys." Madalyne said as she stood there looking at all of her friends, it seemed that they all agreed to get some food first. "Food sounds great lead the way." Madalyne said as she started to follow the rest of the group over towards the table where all of the food was located. She could feel her stomach rumble slightly as Madalyne looked at all of the food that was there.

Seems that everyone more or less had their hands full they were all holding hands and stuff as Madalyne sighed slightly. "I'm going to find us a table and put our drinks there. I'll be right back." Madalyne said as she looked around there were a few tables that were occupied by other students until she found an empty table. She set the plate of drinks down on the table and quickly went back towards the table, her attention turned towards Leah asking who Swift Wind was. "He's She-Ra's faithful steed that she rides into battle with in the show." Madalyne answered Leah as she quickly started to grab some cupcakes as well as the mini pizzas.

Madalyne turned to the group and sighed slightly they needed to be working as a team and not against each other Max snapping at Prudence, and Klara ranting about being left behind by Max and Jack and loosing their soul. All the while her step-father was dead and Carolina had gone missing with Ananym they all needed to work together. "Can you all just get along and work together, we can work out our differences at a later time and all go our sperate ways once we have this whole Limbo incursion thing dealt with." Madalyne said as she closed her eyes and waited for Max to get ready.

The Everdark was probably a good backup just incase they failed with Max's idea of just going there. [color==7FFFD4]"If going to Earth directly doesnt work we'll do your plan and get back to Earth from the Everdark."[/color] Madalyne said to Jack, once Max was ready Madalyne felt Max grabbing her hand and Jack's and they started to work together feeling herself becoming one with the other two her pulse matching Max and Jack's. She used her magic to try and make that connection to Earth from Limbo.






Carolina Reed

Skills: Divination





Carolina continued to stare at Strange's body for a moment longer as her attention turned back towards Ananym, she noticed Ananym's tail twitching like she was agitated and her eyes diming slightly. She cursed herself hoping that she was able to try and convince her Carolina knew then that October was completely gone and she was replaced by the demon in front of her. "October please, we can talk about this can't we?" Carolina asked as Ananym grabbed the ritual knife out of Steven's chest and licked the blood off of it and she started the countdown.

She looked back at the door from where they had entered as she quickly contemplated on what to do, Carolina wasn't sure how physically strong Ananym actually was now. She could stay and try to fight her with her years of experience fighting with the X-Men, or she could try and possess Ananym to try and get her to stand down.

However that would leave her body vulnerable and she didn't trust Limbo at all with her souless unconscious body at all. She got a bit of an idea she was in a library that possibly contained magic spells that she could try and fight back, Carolina quickly dashed out of the room to try and find a place to hide from Ananym.




Bethany Bell


Asteroid M.
Skills: N/A





Bethany was glad that Pietro was able to avoid the three of them from getting hit by Max's powers, once things started to settle down she was set down. "Thanks Pietro." Bethany said as she looked around at the others, everyone seemed to get hit by Max the walls continued to rattle around them which wasn't good. "You'd have to give Ed a sample from you, usually a hair sample from you if you want healing. Thats usually how Ed's healing magic works." Bethany pointed out, they had a plan now they just needed to get it going and find out where Cortez actually was.

Mira seemed to get a glimpse from where Cortez was which was a good thing then he was nearby now. However more chaos started to happen all around them as metal started to break off and started to fly all around them. She quickly brought her arms up and tried to shield herself from the oncoming metal from hitting the rest of her body. She winced in pain as she felt some of the metal shard landed on her arms cutting her quiet a bit. "Lets take him down as quickly as possible now then." Bethany said to everyone.






Carolina Reed


Location: Asteroid M.
Skills: N/A





Carolina winced as she was helped up by Rob she looked down at her arms they were hurting quiet a bit as she looked at him. "Thank you." Carolina said for helping her back up to her feet. Then the pain was lowered now as Ed managed to heal her and everyone else who was injured by Max's haywire powers. Pietro released Beth and Guin at least the three of them were unscathed she was about to explain to Robert about Ed not healing him. However her attention turned towards Neil she was worried about them as she walked up to them.

"Are you alright there Neil?" Carolina asked Neil giving them a worried look she couldn't blame Max for loosing control of his powers due to Cortez. Carolina could hear the sound of metal suddenly being torn and then shards of metal started to fly around the room, as Magneto by the looks of it started to loose control of his powers. Some of the group ended up getting hit by the shards of metal, she was glad that they had missed her.









San Fransico, Sierra Trail:

Everything around their little rest area seemed to still be clear for now Chocolate and Arbor were both having a blast as the two of them played and wrestled with each other. Persephone found a nearby wooden bench to sit down on, Niah was still on her Iris Call with Nancy for Niah she wasn't able to hear anything on the other end aside from seeing brief glances of Nancy freaking out by the looks of it.

"I've been to Ireland only once myself actually but that was way before I actually came to camp." Damon said as he continued to look around everything was clear for now still which was good. Though he didn't want to stray to far from the rest of the group they were his ticket back to camp after all he just needed to help them finish their quest first. "Things seem to be clear, did you want to continue on or head back?" Damon asked him.




Kiera Donovan

"I'm sometimes a bit clumsy myself as well to actually." Kiera said with a slight laugh as she started to head down back towards the dining room where the two of them had dinner the night before. "And if I had to guess they made some seafood or something like that for breakfast." Kiera said it was pretty logical to her anyway since they were under the ocean and at Atlantis seafood was all around them. But that was just her opinion anyway.

Once they made it to the dining room food was already set up for the three of them, it was a mix of the standard breakfast and mixed with a bit of seafood as well to. Poseidon was in the room sitting at the head of the table, his attention quickly turned towards his two daughters and smiled at the two of them.

"Good morning how did you two sleep?" He asked both Kiera and Sera as Kiera went over and sat down on one of the chairs closest to her father. "I didn't get much sleep honestly." Kiera said she wasn't sure if she would get any good sleep for a long time. Kiera started to grab and make herself a plate putting some scrambled eggs onto her plate as well as some bacon to and quickly started to eat.

"Fine i'll play nice for now, but if he annoys me to much i'm turning him into an ant." Alexios said as he crossed his arms over his chest and watched as both Zeke and Demi went to try and comfort Nancy. Whenever the two of them got close to Nancy the two of them were in her bubble of silence. When Zeke spoke to Nancy he wouldn't be able to hear himself speak at all, and everything sounded very muffled, same thing would happen for Demi as well to. Kristin stood there as she tried to think of a way to try and help her, but Zeke and Demi seemed to be there for her she didn't want to overwhelm the girl either. "You could use your power on her, she seems to be having a mental breakdown right now, or at least put her into a tired state might calm her down." Hypnos suggested to Janelle.

Over where Cassian was he still wouldn't be able to hear anything from Aron or Anya he would then feel a tap on his back as a barrel of the laser gun was pointed at his face when Cassian turned around. Then she quickly moved the gun to his chest and pressed the trigger indicating that he had been shot. "Looks like you are dead." Anya said teasingly.
