BIC Forum thread - https://subeta.net/forums.php/read/851164/An-Unwanted-Fantasy-Adventure

Okay, I been planning a bit of a morally gray but also bit of a silly fantasy comedy that’ll soon be converted into a forum RP. This is the OCC thread to it that’ll see if anyone is game for it. If so, this is where we’ll do our OCC chatting. I highly encourage anyone to join to ask questions and add in their own ideas.

I hope you like reading a huge chunk of plot: Okay, so you are not the best person in the world. Well nobody is. You were just the average jane and joe. But surly you didn’t deserve this? One day you were just doing your thing in the normal world: your job, your school, your gaming, your music, your everyday normality. But then you saw her, a strange being of white…and then your faded in a white flash of light and darkness.

Eventually you all awaken in a strange place a seemingly cozy log cabin in the woods devoid of technology. As you rub your bleary eyes, you all adjust to your new surroundings…and then go into a panic. Not only are you not at home but you all appear to be forced into strange medieval fantasy cosplay! Some look like bards and soon to be medieval knights, some elves, some are no longer a humanoid species. You all try to take this stuff off…but then you realize it’s all real! That sword is actually heavy with real sharp metal. That wand is primed with real magic as much as you are. Those ears and tails are a part of your flesh! You all are force to realize that maybe, just maybe, you are no longer apart of earth. As soon as that conclusion is reached the exposition arrives.

Strange people arrived who call themselves the Helpers. They are odd religious beings who have been told to help you by the Goddess of Fate, for you are the chosen ones. They are the first of many that shall come to help the heroes on their journey and explain their quest: collect the sacred objects. But they are going to have their hands full with all of these slang talking Chosen ones who speak of an unknown place called Earth and all of its strangeness. But they also bestow upon then a warning. That an evil wizard has the same intentions and the same goals. He wants the sacred objects for himself and he is willing to created his own party of evil chosen ones. A party venomously called The Stalk. So they must hurry in and begin the grand adventure to find the sacred objects first… With it they’ll be granted the ultimate wish, to return home or live in paradise here in Neo Terra if they choose to stay…that is if they can figure out how to use their abilities without killing themselves.

But are The Stalk really bad? From their awakening they tell a different story. They are humans with a not so good upbringing. Something they would all like to forget. And now they being force to play the role of bad guys and monsters…or…are they. The wizard does not come off as the bad guy the others are told he is. He is kind and gentle. Though his helpers appear despicable and are a bit abrasive, they aren’t so bad themselves. The Wizard tells a different story. The Chosen are being led astray. Their Goddess of Fate is not the actual goddess but an imposter. He tried to warn the people but has been typecast as evil. He used up most of his powers to summon up his own chosen, insensitively named the Stalk. Sadly, his powers were weak and he had to bestow them a bit of darkness just to exist in this world. Whether that darkness be monstrous forms, unfavorable species, or a twinkle of dark magic. But he claims he has no intentions of evil. In fact, he believes that such things claim to be evil are not so when placed in the right hands. He wants those chosen to collect the sacred objects first and if they must, attack and steal any from The Chosen. Through him the wizard promises that he’ll grant the wish of a clean slate, to return to earth in a better life before they left or to live in paradise here on Neo Terra.

Thus begins the competition of a lifetime. The seemingly good must go against the seemingly evil. Each side has their own intentions to go against the other. They must travel all across the landscape to claim the sacred objects before the other. But is their side truly the good one? Is the Goddess really an imposter? Is the Wizard really evil? Are the Helpers really sure they are supporting the right cause. Should both sides hate each other as so? All these strolling players must question the intentions of the ones who stolen them form earth and what power these sacred objects really hold. Perhaps, in due time, it’ll soon be time to break the moldings of what should be good and evil and decided their own paths towards destiny. This is not a story about the black and white. This is a story about the gray.

Now I’m still making the forum as we speak. It’ll be posted up tomorrow or tonight if I’m fast enough. But have some basic rules: (more will be added if needed) -Standard Subeta rules apply like always. -Basically everything is PG-13 or within Subeta’s standards. Cursing, blood and gore, and romance are fine within reason. Forbidden romance is highly welcomed though you do not need my permission for it. Fade to black scenes are a must here. -No Power playing, god modding or meta gaming. Everyone has a weakness or a disadvantage. In fact, the summoned chosen ones have no idea how to use their magic very well nor are adapted at swordplay. This is why the Helpers exist! -Try not to leave others behind in the dust. Let’s try to calm down with posting and let others have a chance to post after we are done. -This fantasy world doesn’t have a set of in world rules asides from no technology. Magic replaces that. You can go nuts if you want. However, remember that no one can go back to earth until endgame. Which isn’t for a long time depending how long we want this to be. We all share in NPC control. Feel free to discuss and create world lore! -I consider myself a semi to lit player, mostly semi because I am beyond perfect. sob. This RP is meant to be accepting to most forms of player literacies. All I ask is at least one paragraph or 5 sentences of effort. If you are stuck or burned out, please talk to me and everyone and we’ll see how to spice things up. Spelling and grammar are a plus but I am not strict, as I admit I’m not perfect. Just type as well as you can or enough so we understand. -Have as much fun as you want. This is supposed to be a bit of a comedy. Think of it as a self-aware RPG game. You can be melodramatic if you want bit remember this isn’t as serious as you think it is…at least not know. There is a time and place for comedy and drama.

Welcome aboard you two! I really hope we do have a lot of fun with this one. Its kind of like a whole spoof and all of the stuff that goes on in fantasy from the perspective a normal people. Also it would be fun to see how they interact with each other and the fantasy beings within the world.

Now I just got finished with the forum not too long ago. Its right here https://subeta.net/forums.php/read/851164/An-Unwanted-Fantasy-Adventure. It also has a shorter and sweeter version of the plot you just read here. You all are welcome to get started with character creation right now, I'm already working on mine as we speak. Just read up on all of the rules just to clarify. However please notify me if you want to make a helper character, I already have claim on one, I just want to keep track, that's all. With that said and done go ahead and have fun with those Skellies.

If you need any questions asked feel free to use this as OCC or Smail me if you want a private conference. Otherwise lets just world build our RP a bit. This RP is pretty lose and everyone can add to the plot as you please. So go an head and talk with me and each other about world lore and stuff like that.

Thank you for the warm welcome! I think this Rp will be great, the story took my interest in a snap when I had read it.

Is it alright with you if I do two characters that are the helpers, one for the good side and the other for the villain? Let me know what you think you can Smail me a reply if you want to!

Here are my applications for my fem oc's!

SPOILER (click to toggle) Name: Celaena Roseriltorda Age: 22
Gender: Female Species: Human Side: She is on the good side and is here to help the new heroes to collect the sacred objects hidden in the lands, before the stalk and her sister leys their hands on it. Fantasy Job/Archetype: Celaena sees herself not as a hero she has been a knight to the higher lords in the land and she takes their side to help others in need in the Kingdom. Now she has gotten a title, to be a Helper. Powers and Abilities: Celaena have the control to use fire and heat, she is skilled to use her powers properly and is not afraid to use them if need be. She is also passionate about many things as sword fighting, bow and arrow, and horse riding. She is a quick learner and does wish to maybe someday train others. Personality: Celaena is sometimes head-strong, she is loyal, calm, and intelligent. Crush: She are open for a relationship. History: Celaena are twin sisters to Isondra Roseriltorda and are the firstborn in the family. She has always loved her sister, but under the years when the two grow up in their teenage, Isondra began to take distance from her sister and even from the family. Isondra never told Celaena why, she just had left the family and made her own way in life and into the darkness. It was very painful for Celaena to be the target of jealousy from someone she loved. The family Roseriltorda were at first blindsided by it because it was the last thing none of them would expect from a family member. When Celaena turned 17 the family and the village outside Neo Terra were attacked by Orcs. The killer machines burned down the village, houses, families and left with a few people who they took to their dungeon. Celaena was one of them. She was tortured for one and a half years until she was freed by someone and its men. She never knew who saved her, more than the man and his men were elves and come far away from Neo Terra. Celaena then becomes to work for the higher lords in the Kingdom.
Other: Celaena has long blonde hair, at night it almost looks like silver. Pale skin and violet eyes, she has beautiful features and a muscular, yet curvy figure. Along with her back, she has scars from the time she was thrown in the dungeon by the Orcs, when fire couldn't burn her they tortured her in other ways.

http://orig03.deviantart.net/2475/f/2015/315/e/9/katarina_by_yy6242-d9gaiui.png "> Name: Isondra Roseriltorda Age: 22 Gender: Female Species: Human Side: Villian Fantasy Job/Archetype: She has taken orders from the evil wizard, now she will help the new villains to collect those important items before the heroes do. Powers and Abilities: She is very skilled with two-handed sword fighting, she does have magic, unlike her sis who can control fire and heat with her own hands. Isondra was born with controlling manipulation. She loves how easy it’s to manipulate people, make them do things they truly don't want to. Personality: Isondra seems to be very silent and coldly collected, almost as if she harbors no feelings at all. What you might think is that she would probably be very selfish, doing things for her own personal gain. Crush: Love? Oh dear, she doesn't have time for it. History: Isondra grew up with her older twin sister Celaena and their family. Her father and mother did truly care for their two daughters, but Isondra didn't feel the ”love”. While the two girls grew up Isondra felt left aside, mostly by her parents who seem to only care about their blonde daughter. Day after day, the girls grew up, both beautiful and strong, but Isondra couldn't handle her jealousy of her sister anymore she shut them out and didn’t want their foolish words when they meant nothing to her. She took the decision to leave her homeland and start her own life. She found an old and dark wizard in the lands, she asks to take a place with them and they accept her. They saw a good potential to have her in their team. She did watch when the Orcs burned her home to ashes when her sister was taken with them. But did she care at all, or even try to save someone? No, the cold-hearted girl didn't give a damn about it, or the fact that her sister was getting tortured by the monsters she let it happen with a smirk on her lips. Other: Isondra has long red hair, green eyes, a curvy and muscular build figure. She does have a scar over her right eye, which Celaena had given her when she first met her after years since they last saw each other. The two ended up in a fight and Celaena was close to make her sister blind on that eye. She had too much adrenaline, and she couldn’t believe Isondra was there when the Orcs had attacked their village. Today the sisters who used to love each other are now official enemies.

Sure thing, I'm sending you an Smail for further discussion.

Oh shoot I forgot to add in the looks to the skellies. Just place it underneath species or where ever you feel like it, I'm going to add it in to the forum.
