Introduction
It's simple, isn't it? Looking at someone and describing them. Physical features, quirks, traits they show or hide from the world. You could never guess what lives right under our noses. Literally.
Every story you ever told your child or your friends, every tale... has manifested into a person.
Fairy tales from all corners of folk lore now live among us normal humans, peacefully most of the time. A few upsets never got the best of them, and while they weren't in their castles or anything of the sort, they did have a small town of their own. However, their ruler, who had unanimously decided to be The White Queen from the tale Alice in Wonderland, has disappeared. The police department have spent days searching for her but no-one knows where she is.
Their town evolved into a ghetto. The stories that ran through their streets turned to darker means. Murderers, thieves. Even Snow White herself, a highly recognized woman in a place of authority, has been known to have her secrets, which taint her snow white skin.
Who will help to lead the search for the White Queen?

The Story So Far... Write a Post » as written by 4 authors
Mary sat in her room. Alone. She was always alone, of late, and that didn't bother her. No-one visited, called, texted or even just... said hi to her in the street. Everyone knew who she was - and everyone stayed clear. Mary got up from her chair and examined herself in the mirror. Pale white skin and mad black hair with a black, lacy corset and skinny jeans. The combat boots were her best attribute, she had figured, by the fact that they were steel toe capped. She nodded to the mirrored version of herself, shot it a smile and proceeded to walk outside.
It was far too bright for Bloody Mary's liking. She'd always taken to darker places even in the city, but today seemed like a nice day. She wandered around the pretty empty streets of the inner city and had hoped to find the book about herself, and change it.
She stumbled upon the library. Mary slowly walked inside and pressed the bell on the counter.

She stumbled upon the library. Mary slowly walked inside and pressed the bell on the counter.
Belle unlocked the doors to her library with a sigh and stepped in, turning the open sign on for people to see that the library had been open. She smiled softly as she made her way into the back room and began tagging the new books for the library while she waited for readers to stop by. Everything was peaceful and quiet for a couple hours as she made her way down the book aisles and placed the new books upon the shelves where they belonged. The female pulled her long brunette locks up into a ponytail as she began making her way back towards the back room to repeat the cycle.
A couple hours went by as she was all alone in the library after tending to other customers either checking books out, returning them, or buying some that were on sale. There was no sound to be heard until she heard the front desk bell ring which made her jump slightly from being startled. Belle giggled at herself as she lifted herself up from the desk and circled around the building to the front desk.
She was surprised to find that Mary had been standing before her. Of course she heard the many stories about her floating around town and noticed how everyone treated her, but that never mattered to her. Belle always believed that you shouldn't judge a book by its cover and that's exactly what she lived by. With a soft smile upon her pale face she stated, "Hello, what may I help you with?"

Mary took a moment to take Belle in properly. She was pale and pretty - a man's perfect dream. Quiet too. Belle hadn't changed too much since they'd come to the city, that's for sure. Always the quiet bookworm. Polite. The perfect librarian.
"Er... Where's the bit on our folklore?" Mary was somewhat happy with Belle's response, as she'd sort of missed seeing people smile at her. She examined some of the other folk in the room. Ichabod Crane was sitting across from the Headless Horseman and Cinderella was browsing a bookcase labeled "Poetry". She turned her attention back to Belle, and smiled somewhat menacingly.

Belle smiled big happy to see that someone was interested in the books about their own kind who weren't the normal people from this city. The brunette began making her way from behind the front desk towards one of the book aisles. "Follow me," she stated as she waved her hand at Mary.
She made her way through the long aisle of shelves and finally stopped towards the back of the building and looked to the left of her. "Everything you need should be there. Is there a certain book you're trying to find?" Belle asked a bit curiously, hoping that she could possibly help her out a bit more. She loved showing that she cared for others, even the ones most of the city never seemed to even notice most of the time.

Mary obliged and followed Belle, scanning books as they passed. Some of them had quite odd names, but she dismissed it as the normal people's books. Story books most likely - they seemed to be obsessed with stories!
"Right at the back, then." Mary chuckled to herself, glancing at the rows of books on folklore. She attempted to see some of the titles from a distance, but sighed and slackened, huffing. "Well, you know who I am, right? I'm looking for my book. I'm sure I can find it. Pretty easy if it's in alphabetical order or... something."

Belle smirked softly and nodded her head at her answer. "Of course I know who you are..." she trailed off down the aisle and found the book exactly where she placed it not too long ago. The brunette lifted the book from the shelf and handed it to her. "Here you go Mary, is there anything else I could help you with?"
Belle glanced around through the book cases to see if she could find her book, now curious about her own story. As long as she had been in this library, she had never thought about reading her own story to see how the normal people interpreted it.

"No, no. You can go and see if anyone else has turned up to gather dust like the books." Mary nodded and flicked through the books. "Oh, wait, I'm going to borrow this. Not for long, only an hour or two? Now you can go." Mary nodded again to Belle, then scanned through the book whilst walking towards the door.
She stood wandered to the local park and lay across a bench, holding the book across her head and ripping pages out. She let the pages fly away and she prepared her pen from her pocket as she began to write her real story on the back.

Belle smiled and gave a polite nod. "Alright, you have a great day Mary," she called out to her as Mary was walking out the door. At that moment she decided that it would be time to read the story about her, to see if everything they put in it was true or made up. Of course she wasn't going to change any of it, she was just highly curious about it.
Belle trailed down the aisle where she led Mary just a few minutes ago and began looking for her book. She found it way down at the bottom of the bookcase, surprisingly covered in dust as if nobody touched it in a few years. She shrugged her shoulders and picked up the book as she blew on the front cover to get the dust off. She coughed a couple times, breathing in the dust by accident.

Rose was sitting in her office just like any other day. Usually the phones were pretty busy, but today they weren't for some reason. At the most she would of had five calls to the station by now, but there were none. The brunette was kicked back in the chair at her desk, reading a book while waiting for something to come up. A couple hours went by very slowly in nothing but silence, that was until the phone rang. She was startled and fell backwards in her chair, the book flying out of her hands across the room.
She quickly picked herself up off the floor and answered the phone. Only to find out it had been someone from the bar just across town. There seemed to be a huge fight between a couple guys and no matter how hard everyone tried they wouldn't stop. The female let out a big sigh and hung up the phone. She slid on her red cloak before stepping out the doors of the police station and drove out to the bar.

Terrence stood next to the entrance to the bar, bored. He eyed the counter warily, because two men seemed to be getting into a heated argument over something to do with women, thanks to his fine tuned hearing. He yawned, his mouth stretching to expose his slightly larger than normal canines, and scratched himself behind his head. Since moving into dystopia and trying to turn over a new leaf, the big bad wolf has tried to become more tame. Which seems like something impossible, but he vowed it to himself. He heard one of the men shout, and he looked in time to catch one man sock the other in the stomach.
"Hey!", Wolf growled. He leapt over and put himself between the two men just to get himself socked in the face by the other. This time a real feral growl escaped his lips and he grabbed one guy by the neck and threw him across the room into the wall, where he fell unconscious. He then grabbed the other by the shirt and hissed in his ear, "You know who I am and what I can do... now get out of here and don't come back until you get a little more sense in ya."
The man gulped, trembling. " Yyyyyyes sir." Wolf set him down and watched him sulk out the door. His attention then became diverted to someone pulling into the parking lot.

The brunette female parked the vehicle as she watched a male run out of the building. She let out a sigh as she stepped out and closed the door behind her. She slid her hands into her red jacket and made her way up to the building's doors and stepped inside the building. She could tell there was definitely a heated fight inside because of the damage in the area it had happened. The female noticed the bouncer and made her way over to him to ask what was going on and if everything was handled properly.
With a soft smirk she realized who he had been put pushed that aside to do her job, "So...Mr. Wolf, was everything handled properly? Do I need to take anyone up to the station?" she questioned, hoping that she wouldn't have to. She was enjoying a kick back sort of day and having to bring anyone to the station would change that.

Wolf watched Rose walk in and a wave of guilt washed over him. What's past is past, he tried thinking to himself. She looked around the room and asked him if he needed her take anyone down to the station. He pondered that, and replied gruffly," Don't think it will be necessary. Tom who ran outta here won't be stirring trouble up anytime soon." He walked over to the other man and nudged him with his foot. The man groaned but otherwise was uncomprending. "I can deal with him myself when he wakes up. So not much for you to do really. Sorry to bother you." He tried not to make eye contact- still feeling uncomfortable of his past actions years ago.
Phoenix strolled down the street coffee in hand and brightly colors floral dress in toe and red hair practically blazing. The smirk on her face told anyone in site that she was up to no good today but boy was she happy about it. When she saw Bloody Mary she decided to stop for a chat so she fixed her enormous yellow sunglasses and glided over behind bench where Mary was sitting. When she saw that she was writing in a book she looked to see which book it was and smiled, relishing the moment.
"Sucks to have to live by so many rules, doesn't it," hoping to have startled Mary she swung around the back of the bench sitting in it and setting her messenger bag next to her crossing one leg over the other she turned to her companion smiling mischievously.
"I sure hope I'm not intruding on your vandalism," she continued in a seemingly sweet voice, "I'd hate to be the one to ruin the property damage party." she'd take out a red lipstick smoothing it over her lips while watching Bloody Mary from the corner of her eye. "But don't mind me, I'm not here to ruffle your feathers or anything." she draped her arm over the arm rest on the bench leaning back and looking around the park.

Rose nodded her head and slid her pale hands into her red, jacket pockets. "It's alright. If you need me here again at any given point, just give the station a call," the female stated just before making her way back out of the building. She made her way through the parking lot, back towards her police vehicle and climbed inside. After inside the vehicle, the brunette started the engine and began on her way back towards the police station. The town seemed awfully quiet today and she didn't like it one bit, it just wasn't normal for that in Dystopia.
As Rose was driving through town, she happened to notice the woman known as Bloody Mary sitting with a woman she had never seen around town before. Maybe that was what made town seem a bit off more than usual today. The female parked her police vehicle in front of the park and took a sip from her soda before setting it back down into the cup holder. Rose kept her brown hues glued to the two women, but mainly the newcomer.

Mary glanced at the girl out of the corner of her eye. She was ... what seemed like a pretty girl, bright. Very bright. However, Mary couldn't seem to recognize her face. She nodded and listened to the girl - Mary liked the way she talked. A troublemaker. Most probably not to the extremes of herself, but still. "I sure hope I'm not intruding on your vandalism, I'd hate to be the one to ruin the property damage party."
"No, no, not at all! You're free to join me, actually." She ripped out another page from her book and scribbled some more notes into it. She took a moment to examine the girl, seeing if she could figure out who she was. Nothing. Must be a new girl. "But don't mind me, I'm not here to ruffle your feathers or anything."
Mary stopped and lowered the book and pen. She stuffed them into her pocket and leaned back, crossing her legs. Her mind began to wonder why this person had taken the time to talk to her. She was mischievous - Mary could see that. But why? Not many would, and Belle was just polite to everyone. "Who are you? I can't seem to place you." Mary chuckled, facing the girl. "Do you know who I am?"

"Do you know who I am?"
Scarlet made a face of mock surprise and hurt, though inside she was gloating, " I cannot believe that the infamous Bloody Mary doesn't know who little ol' me is." Her hair seemed to glow an even brighter red just then, "I can't blame you though, being unnoticed has gotten me everywhere." She smoothed out the folds in her pastel pink floral dress, "who I am isn't important right now," she said this in a lower tone keeping her head down, "but I should tell you that we are being watched." Digging around in her messenger bag she pulled out a pack of cigarettes pulling one out and placing it in her mouth lighting it with a simple silver lighter letting out a puff of smoke after a few seconds.
No longer was she playful and malicious but completely turned around to be cool and reserved. She tried keeping her expression normal but couldn't help but feel uncomfortable at the invasion of eyes. She turned to look at Mark taking off her glasses to look directly at her, "to be honest I came here for selfish reasons, I wanted to meet you pure and simple." The truth never came easy to her and this was her first interaction with anyone outside of work in monthes and she didn't appreciate getting noticed.

Wolf waited till Rose was gone, and walked over to Tom.
"alright buddy," he growled while pulling the man to his feet," time for you to get your drunken self outta here."
Tom mumbled something under his breath and stumbled out the door. Wolf sighed and realized his shift was over.
" alright, doc, I'll be going then," he said to the bartender. He really didn't know why he called him doc, it just came naturally. The bartender nodded his head and wolf walked out the door and into his pickup truck. He thought maybe he'd stop by the library and get a few books, since he wouldn't have much else to do that night. He pulled up to the library and walked in.
" hello?" he said, looking for someone, anyone.
"alright buddy," he growled while pulling the man to his feet," time for you to get your drunken self outta here."

Belle was sitting in the library's office reading one of her favorite books when she heard a male's voice calling out to see if anyone was there. The brunette placed her bookmark into the book and set it down upon the table beside her before making her way out the office and behind the front desk. She smiled softly and spoke, "Is there something I could help you with Sir?" At this point she just wished it wouldn't take too long for her to help him with what he needed to find because she really needed to close up the library.
As she was speaking with the male she turned the sign on the library door to show that it was closed but decided not to completely close up until she helped him out. Belle took a second look at the male standing before her after turning away from the door and noticed that it had been the famous wolf that many people have talked about. She also heard rumors about him and Rose, Little Red surfacing throughout the town about things that had happened in the fairy tale world. Belle rid her mind of all of those rumors and focused on what he needed so she could get out of there and just get to bed.

Terrence thought for a couple of moments, then I sudden curiosity struck him.
"Er... could I have any books that have to do with the Big Bad Wolf? For... research purposes."
The young lady attending to him seemed very familiar for some reason. He just couldn't put his finger on it. He was curious to see how books portrayed him though- to see how others saw him. Whenever he couldn't stand it anymore, he asked her,
" I'm sorry, but you look familiar. Are you a.... fairytale, per chance?"

Belle smiled at his words as she began leading him down one of the book aisles. She couldn't quite grasp why everyone was suddenly interested in reading about their own stories, but she didn't mind it. She loved helping people out, especially when it deals with her favorite thing in the world...books.
After hearing his question she nodded her head, "Yes, I'm Belle."
She bent down finding some of the books about the wolf and handed them to him. "Here you go, these are all I have right now," she stated in a soft tone.

"I cannot believe that the infamous Bloody Mary doesn't know who little ol' me is." Mary raised an eyebrow at her, then observed the park. "I'm not that famous. Just... feared. Don't mix fear and fame, kid." Mary smiled a somewhat mischievous smirk as her eyes darted around the area. She noticed Little Red, sighing quietly. She wondered who she was looking at, herself or the red-head. "Who I am isn't important right now, but I should tell you that we are being watched." Mary raised her eyebrow again. "No, of course we aren't, I'm just a psychotic murder and your hair's glowing, we're practically being ignored." The sarcastic tone in her voice sounded far less than friendly.
"To be honest I came here for selfish reasons, I wanted to meet you pure and simple." Mary let a small chuckle escape her lips and straightened her corset, then standing and raising her arms. "Well here I am, kid, the 'infamous' Bloody Mary. Psychotic, blood-thirsty and plain bored." She lowered her arms.

Scarlet watched as she raised her arms and put them back down, she had never met anyone quit like Mary and wasn't sure how to react to her. She pushed that to the back of her mind as she spoke, "Little Red isn't all who I was talking about," she said this in an even tone putting her glasses back on and regaining her composer, "They're watching you from all sides, each one of these buildings hold a half a deck each if you're lucky.' She smiled knowing that luck was never on the side that it needed to be, "But the royal guard is impatient and they won't stay back for long, also you might want to be careful who you talk to cause they might become a target too." she looked around every few seconds making sure that no one else was watching them then abruptly stood up.
"You probably won't see me again but if you ever need me here's my card," she handed Mary her still burning cigarette on the side was a little insignia of a flaming bird, She stretched her arms high into the arm leaning from one side to the other. "Whelp it's time for me to disappear now, something I haven't done in a long time." She turned to Bloody Mary then, "you'll need help on this so don't try it on your own find people who can help you and good luck," she made a 180 and walked off coffee in hand messenger bag at her hip making her way over to a 1957 baby blue beetle and stepped into the drivers seat and taking off blowing an overly sarcastic kiss at Mary as she went.

Terrence nodded when Belle told him who she was. " I thought you looked familiar." He accepted the books she handed him, and checked his wrist watch. "Well bloody- sorry, it's getting late. Thank you," he says graciously. He walks down the aisle and out the doors. He walks up to his truck and jumps in, starting the ignition. He drives down the block, constantly glancing over at the books, calling him. When he can't take it much longer, he just pulls up by the sidewalk and picks one of them up. He stares at the book fora second, maybe even longer. Then, with a sigh, he begins to read. And read. And read. His brow furrowed the whole time, whenever he is finished he sits back in his seat and vigorously rubs at his eyes. Oh how the world must HATE him. These books are just recorded truth as to how fairytales and humans alike have utter contempt for him. Not to mention Rose. His mind began to wander back to a state of guilt. He knows that past is past, but deep down he felt he would always feel that way. He sighed and dragged his hands down his face. And just sat there for awhile, letting the peace and quiet of the night seep into him.
Scarlet drove fast down Drury Lane increasing her speed with each second, she was going well past the speed limit drinking her coffee and setting it into the holder. She was going to do something that she hadn't done in a long time but she wasn't scared she kept her face calm and collected, the thoughts of what she was doing ran through her mind and she thought about not going through with it but reminded herself why she had to. She stepped on the gas pedal nearing the bridge, she saw that just before the bridge was a truck and cursed under her breath not wanting anyone around to see her. She couldn't risk the police finding her then everything would be ruined, she drove passed the truck not even looking to see if there was anyone in it and took a sharp turn her beetle making a nose dive for the water she opened the door and unbuckled the seat belt, this way she would still crash but still be able to get away with it.
She braced herself for impact but nothing could prepare blast of cold water that came up to meet her sending a surge through her naturally warm body into a state of shock to the point where she couldn't move for several seconds. When she got used to the water she stayed in the car letting the air escape from her lungs til the life was washing away with the river. She spent this way for a few minutes and as her eyes started to go dark a thought crossed her mind seeing herself being dragged out of the car by the current and seeing it slowly sink to the bottom "damn I really liked that car" Then it was all gone only a pale corps and a sunken car the surface leaving no trace of the surface that either of them had even existed.

"They're watching you from all sides, each one of these buildings hold a half a deck each if you're lucky. But the royal guard is impatient and they won't stay back for long, also you might want to be careful who you talk to cause they might become a target too." Mary raised a sarcastic eyebrow at the girl, and scanned the area again. Watched? Why? No-one seemed to be 'watching' them apart from Little Red. And why would anyone else be targeted? "Trust me, kid, I've always been watched." Mary said simply.
"You probably won't see me again but if you ever need me here's my card," Mary examined her card, looking at the bird on it. Her mind started to slowly tick as the girl continued to talk. Mary's eyes darted to the girl again, taking her in, then examining her card. Birds... Birds.... Who's the one who does the bird thingy.... Snow? No, not Snow.... Mary nodded goodbye to the girl and headed to the library.
She entered silently, barely acknowledging Belle and then moved swiftly to the back and put her vandalised book back, before searching for the other book. "Flaming bird... flaming bird.... .... OH!" She jogged around to the historical section and took up a book on Greek Mythology. "That was Phoenix?" She flicked through the book, finding the pages about the girl. "Huh. She's been around less than me."

Re: Dystopia
I like the direction you went in with your post and I think we need to get the characters all together or in groups like Red and Wolf investigating the car crash and Belle and Mary investigating the missing Queen and in the end the dots all point to each other and they end up in together trying to find the Queen.
Re: Dystopia
@slimmyjimjim I like your idea, and I'd love to help you start it, but I don't know what you would or how you would want to start it
Re: Dystopia
Ok so I have an idea for the rp and it goes a little bit like this: Ok so as you may know the White Queen has disappeared so in order to get the plot going the royal guards have suspected Bloody Mary of being responsible for it. So what Mary will probably do is try to find out who really did it without getting caught by card soldiers, and along the way she can get the help of different fairy tales. The thing is that's only the first part of the story and we need help coming up with all the rest from you guys.
Any thoughts?

Re: Dystopia
*Double posting, woo!* @Taylor, you can have Chester, but just use the character sheet thing and make a FC! It's all good!
