Gooooood morning Iwaku!
May I present you with Fable. *dramatic fanfare???*
This RP, in essence, will flow like a very loose D&D game - dice mechanics, roles and classes will be employed. While some things will be altered to fit a more RP heavy environment than most games, it should effectively still feel very much like a written campaign, for those familiar. You will portray characters set in the war torn world of Fable... You will embark on quests and adventures throughout the myriad of kingdoms, whilst uncovering aspects of a deeper reaching, overarching plot. (dun dun duuun)
The main twist, of course, is that your characters and several prominent NPCs will be based off of a character from fairytales, folklore or nursery rhymes.
This will be an original character of your own design, but should tie in with a fairytale character to some degree. This degree is up to your interpretation and can be as classic are you want, or hold only bare aspects of the original piece. So long as the content reflects a fairytale in some way, I'll be happy.
The storyline will take place in a fantasy realm of my own design, aligning with a medieval-esque time period. Several things will line up with D&D 5E - with a few exceptions (to name a few - the deities, locations and a few of the game mechanics).
I'm allowing for no more than seven players (total) - it will not be on a first come first serve basis but players will instead be chosen based on the following criteria.
There will be a LOT of Lore/World knowledge I'm going to throw at you. Read as much as you can, obviously, and feel free to work it into your histories/characterization, but don't feel overwhelmed by it all. I like world building, and want this to feel as full and complete as possible, but you will not be tested on it. Do note, however, if you want to add your own lore, or include lore in your history, please be sure to message me about this, first. I'm flexible and love having players additions in the overall plot, but I need to know about it before I can do that!
Because this is a written campaign, and because it will utilize a LOT of smaller, quick interactions, I will be encouraging collaborative writing -- most likely on google docs. This will help keep a consistent flow and prevent anyone from having nothing or very little to write. Because of the nature of collabs, this can make for some LENGTHY reads. If you're not invested in reading a great deal of writing, this probably won't be the RP for you. That being said, I do ask that personal collabs (romantic moments/PvPs/hottub moments(pleaseno)) be kept on the shorter side or that you offer a TL/DR version to avoid stagnation.
Lastly, I am a wife and mom. Real life is my focus, and I may not be available at all times to RP. I expect no more from my players than I give. The pace will be relaxed and flexible. I do ask that you make yourself available for writing at least ONCE PER WEEK and if you're involved in a collaboration, you avoid holding it up for more than a few days (if you have no time to reply, you may choose to ask the players to skip your turn - if you don't reply within a week, we will skip you anyway). I also ask that if you intend to have a lengthy period of absence, or if you just can't continue with the RP, you let me know. Leaving people hanging isn't cool. If you vanish on me without saying anything, I reserve the right to serve your character up with a side of carrots to an ancient dragon. I probably won't, cause I'm nice… but ghost on me and they will be removed from the storyline, all the same. And you'll make me sad...
ANYWHO - If you're interested, please let me know in this thread and I will go ahead and post the OOC thread separately. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask!
