Fantasy ~ FableWood

[SilverFlight]

Edited it up. I suppose I should looked a bit more in depth at the rules for humans.

In your defense it was not stated very clearly.


Um..so he is from the real world...but what era? Time flows simultaneously in both worlds and the rest of the humans are from modern day, so unless he found a way to become immortal (not impossible, but it could get complicated) there isn't much chance of him being from that era and still being 17.


I hate to nit pick, but with over 200 pages in, the world is pretty solid at this stage.

Man I'm all messed up aren't I? Hahaha. I'll adjust it, being from the modern era. I put in some years for reference.

man I really hate the way this site just never gives notifications for some things. Sorry, I only just saw this now. Approved, if you are still interested. Again I am sorry for the huge delay.

 

[Sleipnir]

Name: Ethan Reed


Age: 19


Race: Human


Powers and abilities: None.


Personality: Ethan tends to be a bit shy, genuine, and very polite. A little sarcastic, but well-meaning and hard-working, he tends to be easy to put down, doesn't fight back, and prefers to not confront others and is very passive. He struggles when it comes to actually getting into things but once he's started working he is extremely devoted— he's not a self-starter. He doesn't like confronting his fears or weaknesses and runs from those responsibilities. Ethan is level-headed and has a patient temper. He puts up with a lot and doesn't get angry easily. He doesn't know a whole lot about fairy tales and never was particularly interested in them — anything he does know, he knows from pop culture and knows the basics everyone does.


Character flaw or weakness: Ethan is remarkably passive and as a result he will put up with a lot more abuse than he ought to. He doesn't defend himself against others and in general is a doormat who lets everyone push him around and walk all over him.


Romantic inclination: Straight


Short Bio: Born and raised in North Carolina, Ethan attended a public school and was lucky enough to come home to a complete family. When he entered high school he mostly costed his classes in between driving his younger sister to her different events and working at the local park, and when he hit his senior year, the senioritis crept up and boredom followed. Without any difficult classes to take to keep his attention Ethan regularly spent most of his days after school walking in the park. One day he ended up walking directly into FableWood.

@SilverFlight Here he is!

@Sleipnir Cool, I shall add it back. Currently most active people are in the gardens behind the castle. I've added an Oz post to the settings and locations tab, you can see the pics I posted there.

 

[zCrookedz]

Welcome back @Sleipnir!!

 

[Sleipnir]

I'm very excited to be back!

Hello! Is this still taking new players?

 

[Happy Red Mage]

Name: Excalibur


Age: ???


Race: Legendary Weapon


Powers and abilities: Transformation, super strength, burning light manipulation which basically means she can manipulate light and make it extremely hot.


Personality: Excalibur is a very conserved individual and considers herself to be a danger. This is mostly because of the loss of her previous wielder Arthur. She is afraid of being wielded by anyone else but will let herself be wielded if she was forced to. Underneath her mask of silence and fear lies an innocent and idealistic girl with a heart for combat and companionship and an affinity for happiness.


Character flaw or weakness: Having someone wield her is frightening and unless she get's over that fear then it will be very difficult for anyone to use her.


Romantic inclination: Pansexual


Short bio: As a weapon, she had no life outside of being used for combat and she was alright with that. She started gaining sentience a few years in with her companionship with Arthur and first revealed her human form when Arthur received a grievous wound to the chest. While the first few days after that event was a bit awkward Arthur got comfortable with using her again but by then the dynamic of their companion ship had already changed. Arthur started traveling around Fablewood, helping those he can. One fateful day Arthur left her in his home on a block of stone and he never came back.


Appearance:

 

[SilverFlight]

Alright, let's hope this meets approval, I'm excited anyway to try! Not the best I have or will write, but I find it compelling myself, so I figure its a good place to start.

Name: Mitchell


Age: 23


Race: Human


Powers and abilities: None (as concerned by Fablewood; regular human abilities non-withstanding)


Personality: Mitchell has always been one for a quick smile and conversation, but only when the situation calls for it. He has been raised to be mindful of others, but also to stick to his beliefs with as much strength as he feels necessary. He is very courteous and treats others with respect as long as they remain deserving of that respect from his point of view. He enjoys interacting with others and can be quick to jump in an effort to help as he sees it; in some ways he considers himself an idealist or dreamer that enjoys high-concept thinking and even a little romanticism from time to time. However, more often than not, Mitchell sees himself as pragmatic in most situations, or pessimistic as others claim him to be, and this world view can lead to clashing when his bull-headed nature gets the better of him.


Character flaw or weakness: Can be quick to temper, a bit stubborn, clashing views of himself as idealist and pragmatist in different situations can lead to flip-flopping of opinion


Romantic inclination: Straight


Short bio: Born in the major urban center of a large rural area, Mitchell has always been bouncing back and forth regarding what kind of life he wanted to lead. He enjoyed the fast-paced nature of the city he was raised in, but he could not stop a growing interest in the life outside the city limits and the imagery it conjured up, specifically of the cowboy and their legends which had even seeped their way into his city environment. Spurred on by family troubles and a desensitized temperament of the city life, Mitchell moved out of the city after a college education to pursue what he thought could be a new and exciting life. This would lead to disappointment as he found himself missing the various mental challenges and comforts of his city life. Torn, though never down on himself, Mitchell decided that a decision about where he wanted to make his way would come in time and that he should live day by day, or for the moment, and when the time came to choose, he would. This line of thinking would be held short during one night visit to a local rodeo and the onset of a powerful storm...

Its a bit short, but good. Could you elaborate on the burning light power? I can't quite picture what it means.


Also, we are currently in Oz, so I'm afraid it wouldn't make much sense for your character to be stuck in a stone during their introduction. Can she be mobile? perhaps trying to seek the humans and their guardians out?


 

Hello! Is this still taking new players?

I'll add an extra space if you re keen on joining. You'll be the last for this round.

 

[Happy Red Mage]

Well, basically she can manipulate light and make it very very hot.

If you could state as much in your profile and then we'll find you a suitable entrance into the story

 

[Happy Red Mage]

done.

 

[SilverFlight]

done.

Ok then, accepted. Our party is just about to leave Glinda's palace, this would be a good time to appear.

 

[DawnAntalios]

Oh look its @Metaphysics !


/wave Hi there and welcome! Glad to have you on board too! :3

 

[Deucalion]

Awesome! I'd appreciate it. As the current round will be set in Oz, are there any creatures that are recommended/forbidden beyond what the rules say?

 

[Sludge]

Name: Michael Error


Age: 17


Race: Human. Don't mess with humans.


Romantic inclination: Straight


Powers and abilities:


None, he is as harmless as an... an... well, as a human.





Personality:


If Mike was a video game character then his stats would be quite low. His intelligence could have been his strongest point, but then again, he personally would never agree with that. "Who would want to be friends with such a loser?" You might say and you would be right. With such a mindset it is no wonder that he did not achieve much in the normal world.


Coincidentally Mike's best quality is also his greatest flaw. His fascination with all sorts of fiction is enormous. And the curiosity caused by this quality could lead him to both great discoveries and horrible misfortunes.


Short bio:


You know what they say, in every school, in every class, there is a person who ranks the lowest. In bad schools such kids are first in line targets of bullying. In better schools, such kids are simply avoided. As for Mike... Over the years he somehow gained the reputation of an outcast. You might think the reason is his obsession with games, books and anime, but let's be honest, who isn't a geek nowadays?


Character flaw or weakness:


At times he can find it difficult to accept opinions of other people which often causes fights over otherwise pointless things. Another strange habit of his, is that always present aspiration to be different from normal people... Which is arguarably a flaw but is still slightly less than absolutely annoying.


Appearance:Blue eyes, dark hair, light skin color, blue T-shirt, white shorts, grey socks... And for some reason he's not wearing shoes.

 

[andujarprime]

Name: Malachai (Kai for short)- named after malachite


Age: Old, very old, as most dragons tend to be in this day and age. If one were to give him an age based on his maturity, one would equate him to a man in his early twenties.


Race: Dragon


Powers and abilities: Flying, Fire breathing, fire manipulation, telepathy, Rather large for a man, even larger as a dragon. Incredibly strong, and rather agile for a being his size. He skillfully fights with a variety of weapons in his human form. Those, and a magic crystal, roughly big enough to fit in his hand like the base of a weapons hilt. This crystal can in fact extend and change shape to a variety of weapons with a simple thought from the wielder.


Personality: Malachai can seem abrupt, blunt, and sometimes just plain rude. He is pretty straightforward about all of his intentions.If he perceives a threat he will challenge it, be it verbally or physically he never backs down from a challenge. Like most dragons fiercely protective over what he holds dear. Once he is comfortable, his demeanor changes. If he feels at home or relaxed around someone his tough exterior gives way to show that he can at times be simple minded, and is in fact a kind being. Unless it comes to food, all the years that hes lived, food is his passion and he won't allow anyone to stand between him and his next meal.


Character flaw or weakness: Easily distracted by food =/. Having been alone for the greater part of his life, he finds it difficult following orders, or including other people in his plans. Communication and coordination is almost a foreign language to him. Also alcohol along with food can distract him big time. Because he is so large, he constantly eats so that he doesn't feel so hungry. When he's hungry he's nearly useless, complaining and whining like a baby until he can get himself fed.


Romantic inclination: Straight, with a side of bacon xD , Fastest way to his heart is through his stomach.


Short bio: Malachai like most dragons has been on his own for quite a while. He learned to hunt and fly from his mother when he hatched, then set off on his own as most young dragons do. He has traveled throughout different areas of FableWood and the surrounding lands. He has found a love for food in his travels. One that can rival any dragons love of treasure. Among his travels to different lands he has amassed many treasures. Most of which are kept secreted away in a typical dragons cave atop a lonely mountain. The only treasures he keeps with him are the gold coins and few jewels he doesn't mind parting with in order to get around, or obtain supplies.

[SilverFlight]

Nice, @SubSonicSausage @andujarprime Both accepted. Would you like to come in now or wait till the witch fight is over?


 

Awesome! I'd appreciate it. As the current round will be set in Oz, are there any creatures that are recommended/forbidden beyond what the rules say?

I have to approve the profile, beyond what the rules state though, your only limit is your imagination.

 

[andujarprime]

Oohhhhhhh, ummm Umm umm I think I would jump in now. Just idk where O.o

 

[Sludge]

@SilverFlight


Mmm, I think it is better to wait until the fight ends.

 

[andujarprime]

I'll wait quietly in the dungeons with your new character @SilverFlight

 

[Deucalion]

Name: Raegan Wolf


Age: Human form is 29 physically, just about 160 years old


Race: Big Bad Wolf


Powers and abilities: In his human form, Raegan is notably stronger and more durable than a human his age and build would be. He does not lose any of his animal senses in human form, his night vision, smell and hearing all being top-notch. His notable strength may also be combined with claws or sharp teeth (which he may call forth on command) for devastating blows. Additionally, he can gather strength to bring forth great gale winds, capable of knocking enemies sky-high and even knock over damaged walls or cruddy buildings, a technique which he affectionately has dubbed the "Huff 'n' Puff".


Raegan may also freely transform into his true wolf self, allowing for much greater speed and agility, as he is more comfortable moving as a wolf than a person. It is worth noting that he can still speak, even in wolf form.


Personality: Raegan is a hunter, first and foremost. Actually, let's rephrase that. He's a Hunter. Capital H. There is nothing that brings him greater joy than finding suitable prey, chasing it down and sinking his teeth into its throat. It began as something he did for survival, but he really doesn't hunt for food anymore. Rather, it's a way of life, the joy of it, that drives him. As a result of this mentality, he approaches everything as a predator on the hunt. Establishing a new friendship is just tracking down what makes the to-be friend responds well to and exploiting that, hunting down and taking the new companionship. That comfortable chair is his, and woe any rival that would get in the way of it. Anything he wants or pursues is prey and he will use the logic he learned in the woods to gain it. To many, this can make him seem rather agressive, if not plain unsettling. He just does not think like most normal people do. He's an apex predator, which is really the alpha and omega of his very being.


That's not to say that's all there is to this Big Bad Wolf though, no. He's a hunter, certainly, but he's also a proud, confident man. During those rare moments when he is not on a hunt, one finds a very laid-back, rather arrogant man, content with just lying down and waiting for the next big target. Almost lazy, even. Don't misunderstand, Raegan can certainly be a loyal companion, he's a pack animal after all, once he has grown fond of someone, you're not going to get rid of him and you would certainly not wish to be in the way if someone hurts an acquintance of his. It's just that most of the time, he simply can't be arsed to do anything not related to predator or prey. It's really all he knows, which makes him quite awkward in finer social situations. Raegan cannot handle situations where there is not a clear hierarchy in place, where everyone is supposed to be on even ground. Nor does he play nice with other "big bads" or those he thinks wish to challenge his alpha position. He can be a very violent creature when push comes to shove.


Character flaw or weakness: As noted, Raegan can be very agressive and rather overconfident. He always thinks he can handle whatever threat is facing him, assuming himself to be the biggest, baddest bastard around, which means he ends up making a lot of stupid decisions and gets himself hurt a lot. His hunter nature can also grow borderline obsessive. Once he's on the trail of his prey, he will not relent or turn away until they're trembling at his feet, terrified but too tired to move.


Romantic inclination: Heterosexual


Short bio: Raegan was one of the big bad wolves, the apex predators of FableWood, a role that he embraced wholeheartedly. As a pup, he always competed with the fellows of his age in the flock, when he grew up he went after livestock on his own, eventually leaving the flock and carving out a name for himself as one of the most dangerous hunters in the forest. He only really met a challenge when he ran into those three pigs, with their teamwork and built houses. The first two, straw and sticks, were nothing a little Huff'n'Puff couldn't take care of. The brick one, though, his winds just could not knock over. Proud and obsessive as he always was, Raegan climbed down through the chimney to get to the pigs. He still bears the burns, and the bitter taste of failure, to this day.


Nontheless, what big bad wolf is not met with failure at some point? He continued, again and again felling other prey, but it slowly but surely grew rather boring. There was just no challenge. No chase. What is a hunt without a proper chase? Raegan was not one of the "good" inhabitant of FableWood, not by a long shot, but he didn't really have anything against his fellow fables either. He just wanted a challenge. With an anticipating grin, he turned his attention to the new big-game hunting of FableWood. The rising dark forces of FableWood beware, the Big Bad Wolf had his eyes turned to you now...

@Deucalion Cool! Accepted. I should update you: One of the big bad wolves was actually killed in an earlier arc. And the three little pigs head the Masons guild in Branbern city.


You can jump in whenever you like.

 

[Cosmos]

Name: Riku Hitori De


Age: 13


Race: Un-vampire


Powers and abilities: Grim Reapers Soul: the ability to make your targets worst fear/memory to appear in from of them as an illusion + Basic vampire stuff... a.k.a flying, night vision, enhanced senses and strength/speed.


Personality: cold/harsh, clumsy, Shuts off emotions, elegant, shy, kind-hearted, strong-willed, cries easily


Character flaw or weakness: at the fight of blood or guns she will faint thanks to events in her past also things like garlic and cross's hurt her (but not in the normal way)


Romantic inclination: doesn't mind


Short bio: Riku has always been alone, not being accepted by anyone.. or anything, called a disgrace, unholy, tainted, demonic so much that she shut off her emotions towards people her bloods-affinity causing her trouble as she hates biting people and nearly always loses control when in.. that form but truth be told... all she really wants.. is a friend.


Appearance: (Human)

Other: Bloods affinity explanation/un-vampire explanation: a bloods affinity is a certain type of emotion/atmosphere given of by creature depending on the affinity (in Riku's case unhappiness) if she goes to long without injecting her blood into someone she will either get a nasty/huge nose bleed (and generally faint) or her vampire instincts take over and she will bit someone without control (also sunlight doesn't affect her...).
