Duddeli-duddeli-duddeli-du-duuuuu~!!

Treant uses Trunk Fist on Akitsugu.
IT'S SUPER EFFECTIVE!

Guess I'd better get to rolling some dice, drawing some cards and preparing some traps fun encounters for the forest crew now.

By the way, what version of gremlins are we going with here? Gremlins from the 80's movie? Gremlins from generic fantasy? Gremlins from JRPGs?

Would be good to know if we're dealing with something that looks like Gizmo and his gross brood, or something that looks more like a green little dog-person. :P

Double GM OOC post, ermergerd!

To those going to the Springwood Forest:

Walk-to-the-location Info:

Distance:
To get from the eastern most part of the village to the western-most part of the Springwood Forest, it takes about 25~30 minutes or regular-paced walking. This travel-time is decreased if one runs, uses a mount, magic or some other form of aceelerated momentum.

Path:
There is no clear path or road to the Springwood from the village, at least not yet. One has to simply walk on wild grass, flowers, weeds and shrubs towards the east, and eventually the forest trees will start to become visible in the distance. The forest itself also has no clear 'entry point' or such, meaning you'll just have to walk in through the trees and trunks and hope for the best. Perhaps setting up some kind of sign or indicator to mark where a group "enters" would be smart.

Sights:
Walking to the Springwood is fairly uneventful. There're no landmarks or noteworthy objects or formations to pay any interest to. Small, thin and short trees grow in seperated and far-between occasional places, some shrubs or bushes pop up here and there, but mostly it's just grass, weeds, flowers and other small, fern-like plants of no particular import. The weather's nice thouigh, sunny and mild.

Encounters:
Along the way to the forest, you may run into simple grassland animals such as moles, field mice, gophers and other small, harmless animals. In terms of monsters, the only thing you'd see are things like plain Blue and Green slimes, who're passive and don't really attack unless provoked - otherwise perfectly content with eating dead plant and/or animal matter.

With that little tidbit, you can all hopefully actually start moving to the forest now. ^^

Are we sure this Dragon (Good) is really... Y'know... A Good Dragon...? *raised eyebrow and skeptic face*

Gonna wait for @CitrusArms to reply with Yumeiko before I make any further posts.

Thank you for further answerage.

Unfortunately, I'll have to pass on this particular RP, but hopefully my questions and your answers will lend themselves to helping other prospective applicants make up their minds.

I wish you the best and hope you'll find some people to have fun with in this world you've envisioned and created. :)

@Lyla
Thank ye kindly fer yer answerings.

A few more quesitons then, if you wouldn't mind~

More Xalty Questions:

4. What age-range of characters are yaiming for then? If the setting is pre-dominantly human, and the players are the Knight Commanders, I imagine we're not looking at a particularly young cast. Because I can't imagine anyone in a 'Commander' role being someone in their late teens or very early twenties. Unless of courese the title of "Knight Commander" has nothing to do with actual, y'know, comanding of knights/soldiers. Or is it a meritocratic title that can be earned by anyone, regardless of age and/or status?

5. I assume then, as there is magic in the world, that there are also some kind of... Magic beasts or monsters? Or are we dealing with a situation where humans have access to magic, but no supernatural or otherwise magical threats (besides other humans) exist?

6. Are we free to choose whatever we want for face-claims (within reason), or would you prefer players to specifically try to adhere to and choose pictures in line with the setting?

7. Since there's magic, I'd also kinda want to know what the technology level is like. Like, do things like gunpowder not exist because magic makes it obsolete? What kind of stuff does the existence of magic allow, do they have elevators/escalators? Magic cars? Or are we talking more just... Magic is used for self-defense, combat and like... Domestic/artisan purposes only?

8. In what sort of climate and geography does the story take place? Typical Fantasy England a la Arthurian legends/The Elder Scrolls Oblivion/Etc? Or is it something else? Meditarranean? Eastern Europe-y? Asian? Some kind of mix?

Again, thank you for your time and patience. I look forward to more answers.

Welcome back to you!
I might be interested, but I do have some questions before I can say anything for certain. So if you don't mind, I'll wait for your answers before I can anything for sure.

Questions:
1. What role will the players take on in this roleplay? Are we the Knight Commanders? Jealous Nobles who want to usurp the throne and prevent the adventurer from being found? Rank and file grunts who're tasked WITH finding the adventurer? Royal Bloodline descendants who've been in the dark about their heritage up until now?

2. The tags of this roleplay include "romance" and "18+". But the descriptions/synopsis gives no hint as to who, what, where or why. Is it romance-themed because romancing NPCs/other players is an option, or is it a requirement? Is it 19+ because there'll be themes of a suggestive or raunchy nature, or is it because there'll be turbo-violence and descriptive grimdark so nasty that it'd make a child have nightmares? OR both?

3. As it is a fantasy world with magic, is it one where multiple races exist, or is it a medieval world but with magic where only humans (or some kind of equivalent) exist?

4. What is the ultimate goal of the players? To restore the ancient bloodline of kings to the throne? To romance the heir/ess? To... Uh... Fill all the important positons in the court? To settle down and have babbies of their own?

5. What art style/theme are you going for with the world? Photorealistic real life? Saturday morning cartoon? Western stylized fantasy art a la D&D? Anime/Manga? Some kind of fusion of something? Or just, anything and everything?

That's all I've got for now. Depending on your answers, I may come up with more things to ask. Or I might not. Anyway, I look forward to hearing your reply. :)

Hoho, look at Addie, being the temptuous vixen who lures good, pure young men to their doom with her wiles! Or somehting.

Just want to point out that Victor and Wilma have already left the gathered group and are wandering the village ruins, so they're not actually in their wagon... Which means Adrila is currently talking to... Well... Nobody... xD
