Scifi, Modern, size difference (mainly larger females), most things involving dragons and humans
The United States, 2020. Anthropomorphic animal-like humanoids (aka furries) have long been a happy part of our society, and life on earth in general is good.
That is, for those of us who are of average height.
Down by our feet, in a world most of us have never noticed, there live others like us. They're called 'Tinies' by the few that know about them, they're a sub-species of human that are just like the rest of us, but only stand about two inches tall as adults. They live mainly in small colonies in and around suburban neighborhoods, though there are a few who have chosen to make their homes inside the homes of the larger humans and furries. The vast majority of the ‘normal’ population doesn’t know about these smaller people at all, sometimes accidentally crushing and killing one or two while just going about their daily lives without ever noticing it. Of the few who do know about them, most are cruel and sadistic towards them, seeing them as nothing more important than bugs or toys. Some intentionally kill them whenever they find any, some capture them to use as tiny slaves, sex toys, or snacks for some, and some snatch them up to trade amongst friends like cards from a game. (Nearly all of those who know about them are also females, largely because they're the ones who tend to notice the little details more than men.) The Tinies try to stay hidden as much as possible, and the few who know about them also try to keep them hidden, for they all fear that if they were discovered by more than a few people that the Tinies would all quickly be wiped out. They survive by living right under the noses of their larger human and furry neighbors, and 'borrowing' the food and supplies they need to survive from those who won't miss it. Though there'll never be a shortage of food sources, life is tough for the little guys. Really tough.
However, there are still those among us who've retained their humanity after discovering the Tinies and some have taken in one or maybe several they've found in a number of different ways. There were those who were stepped on partially and were left to die, those who escaped or were rescued from captivity, and those that were just living out on their own and were discovered by chance. A few of the really lucky ones have found love in this way, but the majority of those lucky enough to be found by someone kind are kept and cared for like either equals, cherished pets, or even children. These kind-hearted giants (though mostly giantesses), as the Tinies see them, also try to keep their existence a secret, fearing what others may do to the little ones if they were discovered en-masse. Will the few kind ones who find themselves a Tiny or two decide to take a stand and speak out about what is going on, hoping that something morally right will be done to stop the oppression of their miniature friends, or will they simply remain a secret, hidden away from the rest of the world out of fear for how others might react?
Only one way to find ou-ohhmyFUCKINGGODFOOT!!!*narrator dives sideways, barely avoiding being crushed*

Rules:

-Out-Of-Character discussions and character submissions go on this thread.
-No God-modding.
-No perfect characters.
-Keep the story going. (Don’t derail someone else’s plot or barge in uninvited.)
-Be sure to add drama to the story!
-General Iwaku rules apply.
-Sex likely will eventually become a part of this RP, but let's keep that kind of stuff PG-13 or below for now. You can be mature, but just make sure you do have enough restraint and keep it at a level sufficient to keep this from being moved into the Libertine/Liberteen sections.
-I'd prefer to have most of the characters be Tinies, then some be normal-sized people/furries. As far as the bigger people go, I'd prefer to have nearly all of them be female, most of them be cruel and evil towards the Tinies, and then a few be nice towards them. (Preferably you should make like two or three Tinies for each evil normal person/furry, and one evil 'giant' for each kind one. You don't have to keep all those Tinies alive for good, though. You can kill them off/let them get killed off, which will likely happen with most of them eventually anyways.)
-Character deaths: Really only the Tiny characters are going to be the ones dying, but there will be a lot of them dying and some in rather gruesome ways. I will allow you to have one or two Tinies that are 'imune' from actual death (though certainly not pain and suffering) but for each of those I'd like at least one or two that are still full, active characters, but are free to be killed. There'll be a LOT of NPC/minor character Tinies dying as well, so go nuts with the gory deaths!
-The Tinies don't have nearly as advanced technology as the larger population does. It could be compared to late 1800s America without the trains as far as weapons and vehicles, though they frequently use mice and similar animals in place of horses. Their medical capabilities are much closer to that of their larger neighbors, however, because that kind of stuff tends to be easier to swipe and use on a smaller scale than guns and cars and stuff.
-Even though there will be lots of characters that are allowed to just die, you should still ask the person in control of them for permission first. On the flip side of that coin, if someone asks to kill off one of your 'unprotected' Tinies, you should generally oblige them.
-It will be easy for accidents to happen and for the Tinies to get hurt or killed by the normal people, especially if the later are not aware of the former’s presence (whether they’re altogether unaware or just unaware in this particular instance).

Name (First and Last): Lisandra (Lisa) Springfield.
Gender: Female
Age: 25
Height: 5' 7"
Personality: Only cares about herself and is quite interested in the Tinies, though for many of the wrong reasons. She's selfish and cruel and usually enslaves or just kills any she catches.
Appearance/Picture: Short brunette hair, slightly on the heavy side but voluptuous.
Username: Trainbrain16

Name: Annabelle Rayne (Usually goes by Anna)
Gender: Female
Age: 18
Height: 5' 4"
Personality: She is incredibly compassionate and curious, especially towards little animals and the like (partially because she's a lot like said animals). She's gentle and loving, but a little bit lonely and used to always go out and find lonely/needy animals and take them in to care for them. Incredibly playful and may get a bit carried away and emotional sometimes.

Her body fur is thicker and fluffier than in the pic, and her tail fur is a bit less poofy. Her snout is mostly reminiscent of a wolf's, but she's still able to make a full range of human facial expressions. She normally wears a full T-shirt and shorts, not the tied-up top she's wearing here. Also, her feet are like a wolf's and she seldom wears shoes or socks. (mostly because none fit the shapes of her feet.) She also has an E-cup bust, not the B-ish-cup bust in the pic.

Name (First and Last): Crystal Miyata
Gender: Female
Age: 26
Height: 5' 3"
Personality: A complete stuck-up, used to getting what she wants when she wants it all the time. Really likes the tinies, but as snacks and toys and not as people.

Name (First and Last): Dirk Hodges
Gender: Male
Age: 27
Height: 2.3"
Personality: ADHD, a great guy once you get to know him, is very protective of those who can't stand up for themselves, and has a great sense of humor. Painfully shy when it comes to the opposite gender and sometimes he can't seem to stop talking about whatever is on his mind.
Appearance: In a word: handsome. His head is topped by an unruly forest of fiery red hair that he usually keeps at about an inch long. His eyes stand out the most partly because he is heterochromic; his left eye is a medium blue while his right eye is a bright emerald green. He has a very nasty scar that starts in the middle of his right cheek, runs over his right eye, and ends on the left side of his forehead (there is a portion of the scar on his actual eyelid, but it is normally difficult to see). Very athletic build.

Username: Trainbrain16

Name: Megan Fisher
Gender: Female
Age: 19
Height: 2.1”
Personality: Bubbly, curious, adventurous, eager to learn, sometimes gets ashamed and embarrassed of and by her very well developed figure and the (often unwanted) attention it seems to draw.
Appearance/Picture: Soft grey eyes, medium-length red hair, quite a few freckles, usually wears glasses. Her body (particularly her DD-cup bust) makes her look a lot older than she is, though her face can have the opposite effect.
Other: She never knew her father, but not for the reasons you might think. (Someone should ask her, and persist if she's a bit resistant)

Name (First and Last):
Galen O'Shea
Gender:
Male
Age:
20 Years
Height:
2 Inches (He claims it's 2.1 inches)
Personality:
A bit of a free agent, Galen is not afraid to speak his mind even if it means using obscenities. He has a very defined stubborn streak and while it might seem impossible to get him to budge, the right person might be able to coax him to another way of thinking. He is highly aggressive with a short fuse, but it is due to this aggression that he's managed to live for 20 years. Underneath this exterior is a young man who is determined to care for his family. Galen can be prone to pranks from time to time and any directed at the giants can be malicious. He is highly suspicious of them.
Appearance/Picture:

Crush:
None
BF/GF/Spouse:
Single
History:
Unlike some tinies, Galen grew up in a vast garden. While his family was content to be outside the dwellings of the giants, that didn't mean they didn't have a roof over their heads. For awhile, things were makeshift and prone to being destroyed by one of the giant's offspring. However, one glorious day the giant built a structure that was more lasting and had a vast shelter area below it. Galen's family, as well as three others, were able to move into the foundation of the structure and live in relative safety. With the trouble of shelter solved, Galen was able to focus on learning to hunt and gather with better proficiency than his little sister. He has been the major breadwinner for his family for five years.
Other:
Galen's father was killed when he was sucked up in a vacuum.

Hope this is okay! Also, if you want Galen to live in one of your character's backyards that'd be great!​
 
He's fine, and maybe if he lives in Lisa's back yard that'd be interesting...
 
Ohh yes, and she'd love to torment him as soon as she finds him! Then maybe he gets away and Anna intervenes to his benefit?
 
Name (First and Last): Thomas Miller
Gender: Male
Age: 24
Height: 2.2"
Personality: Mostly keeps to himself, though is generally open around his best friend Galen. Frequently accompanies him when he's off pulling his pranks on the humans and furries, especially Lisa.
Appearance/Picture: Somewhat skinny, blonde hair, green eyes.

Want me to set up the IC thread so we can get started and other people can join in on our fun along the way if they want?
 
Just a heads-up, it looks like the IC thread got double-posted. My reply only took to one of the threads.
 
Yeah, I saw that, oops... I'll see if I can get that fixed and remove the extra thread.
 
Humm, if you'd let me join, I'd like to use this character C:

Name (First and Last): Kayla Hale
Gender: female
Age: 19
Height: 5.2 ft

Personality: Kayla is a rebellious and daredevil, but chilled young woman who seeks to defy laws she doesn't see fit with her own values. In general, she's calm and strategic when taking on problems and tends to be sensible - as long as no one angers her. If that is the case, she'll freak out like many other people. Though not particularly friendly or cheerful, she doesn't hesitate to help if someone needs it or intervene if someone is mistreated - a behavior appreciated by all Tinies she has met so far.
She loves her music and can't do without her daily dose of heavy metal. Oh, and she's a good cook.

Crush: none yet~
BF/GF/Spouse: none~
History: The girl doesn't have a particularly interesting biography. Her father is a successful businessman, letting her live the high standards only few Americans can benefit from. The first time she encountered a Tiny was at elementary school... at that time she had made a friend out of the female little Tiny her own age, but the teacher had been a cruel woman and thrown the child out of the window. Witnessing the Tiny's death has embossed her a bit and made her stand up for her little fellows everytime she sees them oppressed or mistreated.
Having spent her life in the central and lively parts of the city for her entire life, she is used to a lot of stuff going on around her. Although she appreciates the occasional break, she tends to get bored without something to do for too long, having gotten used not to have a single moment to do nothing.

Ooh... I like it! You're in!
 
Would it be alright for one of Galen's legs to get injured pretty badly in the near future? It'd be something he could recover from, but I have a bit of a plan...
