Introduction
All fairytales must come to an end however—the children grew apart and stopped visiting the now vacant meadow. Now callous and jaded they are adults paving their way through the real world, working nine to five jobs with little room for creativity and just trying to make it. Their fantasy world has long died—those children that they once played with are merely memories of childhood that have been erased by the sands of time. Their pretend personas have been traded in for button downs and ugly ties, no longer is there any possibility of becoming a dragon slayer, or a western cowboy, or brave knight, or even a pirate captain. No longer does the possibility exist for those little girls—now grown and mature to believe in unicorns, fairies, or princesses in towers. It’s all washed away now…Or so it seems.
Now some are miles apart making names for themselves but somehow an unfortunate event brings them all together once again—the death of their late playmate Delilah Atwood. At the service they decide that while they are in town they should honor their dear friend by planting a willow tree in the meadow in which they once played. Upon laying the last shovel full of earth upon the ground surrounding the tree something magical happened there in the meadow…something truly magical. The tree grew rapidly and suddenly shaking the ground around them—a door appeared engraved into the bark of the tree and opened to them sucking them into a whirlwind of light within the tree trunk.
Stunned and bewildered they twirled, and twirled and twirled until the landed in a lush patch of grass. They were no longer in the meadow, no this place was much different. Everything seemed brighter, more colorful and vibrant—almost like a story book…they were now truly a part of the fantasy world in which they once created for themselves. Only now they didn’t control where the adventure was to take them… They find themselves on the biggest quest of their life time, to find their way out of this fantasy land
They are merely a chapter within a child’s dreamscape…

The adventure will start in the meadow just as our main characters are finishing planting the willow. When they enter the realm of imagination they will begin in the enchanted forest—I will create different locations as we move through different parts of our story, so it’s very important that we make use of the OOC board to discuss the ideas everyone has.
In this role-play there will be a lot of room for creativity and it will be a character driven adventure. Therefore, I ask that you put some thought into your characters before submitting them—I don’t want fourteen princesses, or an excessive amount of any character type for that matter for variety will make the role-play much more interesting. With that having been said you have the freedom to have your character be anything or anyone in the fantasy realm. They could keep their human appearance or it could change, they could be a character from a storybook or an original character of your choice. I don’t feel the need to stifle anyone’s creativity in a role-play about endless possibilities. If you would like to role-play a character or villain even from within the dreamscape itself that is also fine and quite necessary just indicate this within your character’s profile. Role-playing multiple characters is also acceptable and will make me smile.
