βππππππ‘ππππβ Standing at 3'0, Lilia looks a lot younger than she actually is. She weighs in at a whooping 50 pounds and has a "dancers" build as her parents called it. Her limbs are willowy and slender, no baby fat from childhood to be found. Her skin is fair, almost pale. However, despite being so pale she doesn't burn easily, even if she's outside all day without sunscreen. Her hair hangs in curls to her waist, so pale a blonde that some call it white. A little long, but her mother just couldn't bare to cut it. Her eyes are a amber color, which she gets from her father with her mother having brown eyes along with her brother.

βπππ‘π’ππππππ£π¨β Lilia is always looking for the hint of good in even the worst of people and events, searching for ways to make things better. She is always trying to take care of the people around her but in doing so Lilia sometimes forgets to take care of herself as well. Normally, Lilia comes across as a little shy, emanating a calm and reserved aura. But given the right circumstances and Lilia's inner flame can shine through the shell she builds around herself. Lilia listens to her heart and her actions are ruled by her desire to lend a hand rather than what she would get out of the situation by helping. Her caring nature knows no bounds and she holds a place for everyone in her heart. When given the task of helping someone, she comes out of her shell and gives them a shoulder to lean on, an ear to talk to, and a voice to comfort them. Lilia is also open-minded and tries to look for the good things in life rather than focusing on the bad. When she puts her mind to it, Lilia can be a little ball of energy, especially surrounded by those she cares for. She is also not one for giving up until she's given it her all and even then she's very hard-pressed to quit. But life is a double-edged sword. At times her caring nature leads her to trouble with people who do not want to be helped and may show violence in resisting. There is also a possibility of someone exploiting her kind nature to manipulate her.
βπππππ‘ππππ¨β Lily was born to a loving with two doting parents and an older brother that spoiled her rotten. She grew up in a two-story house right by a park, the same park where she learned to ride her first bike and fell off the swings trying to jump off. Their neighbors were fairly friendly, a little old lady on their left who was the blocks' resident cat lady. Many thought she was batty but Lily just thought she was lonely and so the child made it her goal to visit the kind woman every day after school. To the right of her house lived a couple who had lost their daughter when she was about Lily's age so they enjoyed when she visited them. Unfortunately, the universe has a nice way of flipping your world upside down.
On Lily's seventh birthday, her parents were in a fetal car crash, leaving her in the care of her brother. His current job wasn't able to sustain both of them so he got a job in the city over. He was gone from home most days but it paid the bills. Even so, Lilia quickly had to learn how to take care of herself, with the help of her neighbors of course. Days off were rare for her brother Cardlin so he always made them special. Lily had always been fascinated with art and when she was young her mother used to take her to Guertena's art gallery where they would spend hours talking about the art work. So the gallery has always held a special place in her heart.
"It's said that spirits dwell in objects into which people put their feelings. I've always thought that, if that's true, then the same must be true of artwork. So today, I shall immerse myself in work, so as to impart my own spirit into my creations." ~ Guertena Weiss
Guertena's final painting was a portrait of himself, one last great work. He was terminal ill and he had a irrevocable fear of dying and being forgotten forever. He worked night and day, immersing himself into his work; hoping that when he was done some part of his soul would be imparted into his creation. But before he could successfully finish his masterpiece he died of his illness. The painting was taken to the Art Gallery and displayed as the artists last painting even though it remained unfinished. Many would think that Guertena's plan to live through his artwork would have failed seeing as it was never finished but this would be false thought. For his feelings were so great and so strong that some of his soul did indeed become part of the painting itself. But, since the painting was incomplete, it felt unfinished, like a piecing was missing. It gained control of the painted world, proclaiming themselves the King of that world, raising a great maze. But still there was something missing. And so, watching through the window that was his painting, The Blue Rose King gazed out at the real world; waiting and watching until those he felt were adequate enough to "complete him" came along. Then, yes then, he would draw them into his Fabricated World...and take their soul.
I do not own Ib or the characters/pictures. The plot is my own creation. Inspiration for the Blue Rose King stems from this amazing fanmade manga, of which it and its creator can be found here.
A version translated into English can be found here.
Translator for the English version can be found here.
Your character is human. No powers, no special abilities. Mortal. And there are no weapons in the fabricated world. Nothing you wouldn't find in an art gallery. However, if you intrigue or please the King in any way, he may bequeath you with items.
Fabricated World: An exact replica of the Art Gallery except all the artwork comes alive. There are puzzles to solve and things to hide from. The only way out is through the Fabricated World painting and that is only revealed when the creator of the world is destroyed.
"Forgotten Portrait"
The king of this world, he can change it with a snap of his fingers. He is hidden deep within the Gallery and watches what goes on within. All the paintings bow to him though Mary is an exception. She loves Guertena, thinks of him as her father and she knows that this artwork is not him, knows that it will never be him. It is also rumored that he can look into your heart and see your darkest fears and use them against you. He is a God in his Fabricated World and can create anything he wants. A thought that would best be kept in mind.
The Artwork
From the game
"It was said that he [Guertena] based this on a lover he had at the time, but he has denied this claim. In truth, Guertena based it around the haughty women who attempted to court him for his inheritance." "The girls in the canvas...the women here become very troublesome when they acquire a desire for humans.They'll always stubbornly chase things until they're satisfied, it seems...anywhere...everywhere...to the ends of the earth...but if they have a weakness, it is that they can't open doors on their own. The women here love playing "loves me, loves me not".
The Lady in Red, along with other Ladies (Blue and Green), come alive in the distorted museum and chase after the character. They are faster than the headless statues. They drag themselves after their victims. One may think they are slow but they are anything but.
If one of them gets a hold of you, they will slowly pick your rose petals off one by one.
"It's tongue keeps wiggling..."
Touching it's spit will lead to a loss of a petal. It doesn't have a specific name.
"Death of the Individual"
Headless Statues that chase you like the Ladies. Them grabbing you is a loss of a petal.
Appears to be able to move on it's own. May appear randomly at times. It can be broken and cries blood at times. Does not physically injure the player but may try to drive them mad.
"Beware the edges." "Just when you've forgotten..."
Black claws appear at the edges of some rooms. Touching it will lead to a loss of a petal. It pops out when the player is close to where it is hiding.
"One, Two Mary's comin' for you
Three, Four You should run some more
Five, Six Better hope you're quick
Seven, Eight Now it's too late
Nine, Ten You'll never leave again"
"I'm tired of being a puppet of this world."
Even though Mary seems like an ordinary 9 year-old girl, she is actually the second to last painting that Guertena ever worked on. Her goal is to exit the cursed gallery of the Fabricated World to the real world in order to make a new life for herself and make many friends, but her dream can be reached only if she manages to sacrifice the life of someone from the real gallery before jumping through the Fabricated World painting. Not only that, the only way she can jump through the painting is if she follows someone from the real gallery back into the real world.
Mary's rose is fake, as if symbolizing she is too. This could be seen as a representation of Mary's fabricated life, seeing as though she is not a real human. Mary uses one of the yellow roses that are right below her in her painting. Her yellow roses symbolize jealousy, which is a common interpretation in the flower language. Since her rose is fake, the number of petals it has is unknown.
She is able to spy on people through creepy dolls that can speak.
Custom Artwork
I will continuiously be adding artwork to this section as I think of it. Suggestions are welcome! It's will never be too late in the game to add work they'll encounter on the way!
"Sir Arkus Daggon"
A noble knight, he guards one of the parts of the maze.
A sculpture of a plain white bed. Looks inviting doesn't it? Why don't you...rest for a bit?
"The Lady of the Forest"
"Broken Reflection"
"The Devil's Whispers"
"Insecurity brings out the demon inside
"Wisdom"
Roses:
Each character is given a rose. It is their life-source. Cuts appear on the characters body each time they loose a petal. Vases of water may be found throughout the gallery and when a rose is placed inside the water, all petals are instantly returned and the cuts are healed. Players have ten petals each, no more, no less.
Hello there ^^ So, this is based off of the RPG Maker game called "Ib". It's my favorite game in the world and it's free to play and download so I highly recommend it. Anyhoo, knowledge of the game is not required though it is encouraged. The premise is a group of teenagers that had gone to Guertena's art gallery get trapped in an alternative version. In there, the door is locked and the windows do not open. There is no cell phone reception and it is completely empty of life except for the artwork. There will be puzzles to solve at times.
One thing to note: The players will be trapped in one level at a time. I will make a post stating what the rooms look like, the type of puzzle if there is one, and also what artwork they may find there. The players can not move on until I say so. They are free to wander around the level but they can not leave until the puzzle is solved or the way out appears. As they make their way through the levels, they make their way closer to The King. Every action is bound to have a consequence so be careful what you touch and where you wander~
If you have an idea for a piece of art or painting that could plague our characters, shoot me a pm and if I like it, I'll add it to the list.

Appearance: Stands at 4'11 | Hazel eyes | Sandy brown hair that tends to fall in his eyes
Name: Cardlin Iorun
Kin: North
Magic: Lightning: It is strongest during storms when he can draw the energy in the storm but when no storm is present the magic is weak. In this situation he must draw it from himself, which takes a bit of time and it leaves him feeling weak afterwards.
Age: Eighteen
Personality: Cardlin is normally described as a kind and caring individual. He tends to put others needs before his own and won't hesitate to help someone if he feels they are in need of assistance. Cardlin has a stubborn streak and will not budge if he sets his mind to something. He's not one to anger easily but once he is watch out because he can have quite the temper and is not afraid to give you a piece of his mind. Another trait of Cardlin's is that he has a bad habit of bottling up his problems so the people around him will not worry. Even if he is having the worst day imaginable he will still put on a smile and say everything is fine.
Skills: What he lacks for in physical strength, he makes up for it in agility and flexibility. Cardlin is quite nimble and quick on his feet. People are taken aback sometimes at just how nimble he is, especially after they see him climbing with ease and back and front flipping over things. The modern word for this is Parkour/Free-Running. He is also able to run far distances without becoming short of breath. He prefers a bow over a sword and is fairly adept at shooting. He also has a keen ear that is useful when tracking or hunting.
Fears: ~ Being a burden to those he cares for ~ Not being able to protect those he cares for
Likes: ~ Watching the sun rise from the trees ~ Swimming ~ Helping out
Equipment: ~ Long-bow with a quiver of arrows ~ Flint for making fires ~ Rope, never know when it would be needed
Biography: Cardlin's father works as a Carpenter for the village, carving woodwork that is used when building houses and such. His expectation is for his son to take over after he is gone but that isn't exactly in line with what Cardlin wants for himself. While he wants to make his father proud, sitting in a stuffy wood surrounded by wood shavings that made him sneeze just doesn't appeal to him. He prefers to be out in the forest where he can run and climb. Sitting still made him too restless, he only felt at home within the forest. His younger brother shows more interest in the family business and Cardlin would be perfectly happy letting his brother take over when he was old enough.
The crowd gathered around Hiccup seemed to murmur uneasily among themselves, waiting for someone to speak up. Finally Cardlin stepped forward from the crowd, Gilthunder towering behind him. Cardlin raised his head and meet Hiccup's gaze. "Five so far. Three vikings and two dragons." One of the vikings shifted in place upon seeing Cardlin before speaking up, softly naming Arkus Iorun as one of three vikings dead. Cardlin stiffened at the mention of his fathers name. He was holding his younger sister in his arms and he shifted, hugging her closer as she buried her face into his neck. His jaw clenched and eyes bright with unshed tears, he kept his head high. "My father thought he could trap whatever was plaguing the village and kill it himself." He let the unspoken, obvious result this lead to.
He needed to protect his mother and sister now. And he was going to do whatever it takes to destroy the monster that is killing his people. As if sensing his rising frustration, Gilthunder leaned his head down and butted Cardlin's shoulder gently. The boy craned his head around and gave his dragon a tight smile. His sister lifted her head up from his neck and reached out one small hand, stroking Gil's nose, the dragon gently puffing air at her. She giggled, reaching out both hands to the dragon. Cardlin shifted her in arms before lifting her up onto his dragons back, keeping one hand raised to steady her as she hugged Gilthunder's neck, the dragon rumbling softly in comfort. His sister now occupied, Cardlin turned back to his chief, gaze determined. "We can't allow this to continue. Soon there won't be any of us left to bury the dead. We must do something." He couldn't bare losing anymore of his family, or worse, Gilthunder. He didn't want to lose anymore friends and family to this fiend that plagues their village.
@XxLyraxX ...I must say this is one of the first times I've never had to say anything out right that I noticed with a CS lol. You even did the Spells correct by making them actually fit Starting magic spells.
Appearance: Standing at 4'0, Lilia has a slender and petite build. She isn't very strong physically-wise but is quick on her feet and nimble with her fingers. She had light brown that tumbles passed her waist in slight curls and her fringe of bangs tends to fall in her bright blue eyes that have small flecks of gold in them that can be seen in the right lighting.
Name: Lilia Cardlin Winchester
Age: 14
Talent: Water, Air, Telekinesis
Grimoire Appearance:
First Spells: 1. Water: Taking small amounts of water and bending it into small shapes, such as spheres and being able to hold the shape together 2. Air: Making a feather levitate from the palm of her hand 3. Telekinesis: Moving small objects across a surface
Personality: At first glance, Lilia would seem like a bubbly child, bouncing all over the place however once someone actually takes the time to talk to her they realize that appearances don't always portray the person. Filled with seemingly an infinite amount of patience, Lilia is the type to gather all the parts of the story, even what may seem like insignificant details, before she choses what action to take. Even it is takes a long time, even if others would have given up by this point, Lilia keeps moving forward until she feels she knows enough to make a correct judgment. Seeing the glass as half-full, Lilia knows that there can be good in everyone and she can be very persistent in sticking around long enough to show everyone else what she sees. That isn't to say she tries to force her ideals onto others, even if others don't necessarily agree with her, she is satisfied so long as they acknowledge her point, even if they don't have to like it.
Not exactly shy, Lilia prefers to wait for others to initiate the conversation, however long that may take. Lilia also can have a habit of annoying others, prompting them to just walk away because she may be taking too long at making a decision. Hand-in-hand with her patience is also her stubbornness. Once she puts her foot down, it takes a lot to move her. (Metaphorically speaking. Come on, she's about as heavy as maybe a sack of flour.) Lilia is not angered easily, which also can annoy those looking to get a rise out of her. However, this isn't to say she is like a brick wall. She has feelings and they do tend to get hurt. However Lilia tends to hide those type of emotions away from view and instead put on a smile. It could lead to those around her having to show patience in trying to get her to admit that something is wrong. Some are rather shocked by how grow up she acts sometimes.
History: To say Lilia had been loved as a child would be over-exaggerating. Her father, an Irish man, was a wealthy business man for a computer company and her mother, an Englishwoman, didn't work. Her parents had not married for love but to bring two wealthy families together. Her father was always at work and her mother was out at parties all hours of the day; that being when they weren't moving everywhere on the face of the planet because of her father's work.. Everywhere they went Lilia's parents always hired some kind of nanny to watch her. Her parents never paid attention to her and when they did they were detached, not really caring about the conversation going on. Lilia did everything she could think of to get her parents to notice her. She eventually stopped trying after she made a horrible grade on a test just to see how they would react. Her father never looked up from his tablet and her mother just gave her a customary glance, replying βThatβs nice dear.β Lilia faded into the background and even though she was surrounded with so much stuff, she was horribly lonely. So one day she just...left. Clearly she was being a burden on her parents, which was why they were ignoring her so much. She knew her mother had a sister that lived sort of close by so Lilia decided she would go live with her.
However, on her journey through the streets, she discovered an odd shop. Ducking inside, Lilia's journey began.
Other: She is claustrophobic and afraid of heights and the dark. She has a soft spot for animals and she is fairly good at drawing.
