Let Down Your Hair

She's been locked inside the very tippy top of a tower her entire life, with no one to talk to but her could hatred aunt. All she want's to do is live life normally, but there's no normal with her 60 feet of hair that can heal practically anyone. Her aunts kept her locked away for years for her own selfish reasons, of course she's told her niece for years that the world is evil and cruel and eventually she believed it. He on the other hand sold his soul for immortality the same time his older brother lost his. Now he's sort of a soulless and he has no idea where he's going or what he's doing, but one thing is for sure no one will ever hold him down. That was until he stumbled across a tower and has been spying on the beautiful girl who sits on her balcony.

Plot
This RP is loosely based on three popular fairytales (Sleeping Beauty, Little Red Riding Hood, and Beauty and the Beast.) , They are very different, dark, and twisted telling. It is set in a gothic themed world, for references click the examples below. This RP is based on the lives of very unique individuals who were either born or cursed with a gift, true loves kiss is the only thing that can make them normal again. The three male characters are all brothers, they were and are the Princes of the Gothic Kingdom known as Krimson Moon in which the world takes place in. The Werewolf is the Oldest brother, The Immortal the middle brother and the Vampire is the youngest brother.

Re: A Gothic Fairytale

It's all gone very quiet and there is no sign of a Rapunzel character, so I'm going to withdraw my application. Thank you for initially considering me for a role in the game. Have a merry Christmas and I hope we will meet up in another game. Bye for now.

Re: A Gothic Fairytale

I'm afraid I shall have to drop this. I am sorry. Too many roleplays. :(

Re: A Gothic Fairytale

So, I know, but it isn't an excuse. So I was finally finished with pofile, and was about to submitted it then, my laptop's screen went white and now it's broke. ;~; I am currently on my phone and lost everything of my badass awesome guy I was so proud of- I mean, I had everything on that profile, I loved it like a child~ ;o;
But now we are sending m laptop back to see if they can repair it. If they can, then we are lucky because my character is saved; if they can't, then I am screwed. Either way, they said it was going to take 10 to 15 business days to get it back. I am super sorry for this and I am mad because that character would've been so awesome to play~ *cries in the corner*

Re: A Gothic Fairytale

Ok, so I am done with school work~ Yay~ ^^
I am working on him on the moment so he will be done by Saturday night. :P

Re: A Gothic Fairytale

Both of you no worries my computer is down at the moment my charger went out so just have them in by sunday! :D

Re: A Gothic Fairytale

I am having trouble with the Wolf. Whenever I have inspiration, I'm busy. And I recently lost what I had written up. :(

Re: A Gothic Fairytale

Cosmopolitanlove,
I have some slightly unforunate news; I don't think I will get the beast up soon, I've been having report-project-report back to back at school and it's been a bit hard for me to get him done as well as particapate in other role plays. I will be able to get him done around the weekend, I think I'm 90% sure that I will be able to, but until then, I don't think I can.
To prevent others from thinking that all of the space is taken up, do you unreserving the spot? If no one will take him by Friday or Saturday, then I will continue to work on him; its just this week has been a bit packed- I know, excuses excuse~ I'm sorry for this, but I will try to get him in by then (I want him to be bad ass awesome, so that's why I'm waiting till I have enough time to sit down and actually work on him, lol).

Re: A Gothic Fairytale

@Huscarl there wa a character sheet at the bottom of the main page but I don't want you to have to redo anything so if you could just add a picture (no anime) for your characters apperence it will be fine!

Re: A Gothic Fairytale

Okay.
By the way, did I submit the character correctly, or is there something else I am supposed to do, and if I did submit it correctly, does it need to be changed or is it alright as is ?

Re: A Gothic Fairytale

@Huscarl That's up to you whether you want to work something out with your partner, because all though we will meet up at some point, it is going to be a lot of couple one on one as well, also I have something else planned as far as an obstical for all the couples but that is a surprise. Also the witch already has a huge role as far as plot twist, but it will be a surprise!

@almostinsane & YooHooYummyTummy sounds good no worries everyone is almost in one person is waiting to submit to make sure everyone is so their character doesn't go to waste which is understandable the rest are just finishing up so everyone is pretty much set!!! Can't wait to start!

Also those of you trapped with the witch I will be playing her for a certain reason she has a lot to do with the huge plot twist and how everyone ties in together!

Re: A Gothic Fairytale

I also should have him up by Wednesday night. :P Though, I am a bit concern for those who had reserved a spot and not heard of since. Maybe we/you should PM them and remind them that they have a character spot reserved. :3 I just don't want such an awesome idea not go forth due to the lack of characters. XD That and I worked/am working hard on my characters. xP It'd be a shame if I couldn't actaully use them. ^3^ Sorry if I'm coming out as impatient.. :P

Re: A Gothic Fairytale

I think I will have my character up by Wednesday night. :)

Re: A Gothic Fairytale

Thanks.
I have a kernel of an idea for the character and a rough outline for the Rapunzel fairy tale.

Since we have a definite goal in mind, which is 'true loves kiss' and we want to have some mixups and shenanigans before we get there, it seemed like a good idea to have a rough outline around which to improvise, so that both characters are pulling in the same direction.

It will also serve to show the direction I would like to take the story, so that the GM & Rapunzel's player can decide if that is the way they would like things to go. Roleplay is a meeting of minds, so no problem if this is not what you had in mind for the male character.

Oh and a quick apology. I know you have outlined that Rapunzel has 60ft of hair and lives in a tall tower, but that feels a bit disney and too static to me. Sorry and all that, but I really would like to see the two of them walking through the mist shrouded forest, with the pale light of the moon glimmering down on them through the bare branches.

May I suggest an alternative.
The witches house is only two storeys high, but the sides are enchanted to be without handhold. Rapunzel's hair is long and luxuriant, coming down to her feet. (long enough to be remarkable, without being encumbering). So by lowering her hair, he can on tip toe just reach it to get a hold.

Premise.
The evil witch wishes to ruin both of the lovers lives.
As a fortune teller she tells the Prince that he is doomed to immortality as a blind man, due to an evil enchantress in the forest, who is even now weaving the spell from her cottage in the woods.
The witch has cast the doom of blindness on him, but needs to lure the Prince to her cottage for it to work. She intends for the Prince to slay Rapunzel, the one person who could cure him and then live out his life in misery.

Act 1. The Prince stalks Rapunzel.
The Prince visits the cottage and persuades Rapunzel to let him in. Whereupon he intends to slay the 'evil enchantress', but hesitates on seeing her beauty and tells her of his doom and why he must slay her.
Rapunzel leaps from the window in fright to run off into the forest.
The Prince tries to follow but falls onto the enchanted thorns the witch has planted beneath the window, blinding himself.

Act 2. Rapunzel stalks the Prince.
The Prince is helpless and blunders about in the forest.
Seeing his doom has overtaken him, Rapunzel feels merciful and follows him, trying to get close enough to heal him, without allowing him to seize her.
She succeeds and as his eyesight returns, she runs off into the dangerous forest, lest he resume his attempt to slay her.

Act 3. The Prince chases Rapunzel.
Realising he has been lied to, the Prince chases after Rapunzel and saves her from whatever danger she has fallen into, thereby earning her trust.

Act 4. The Witch attacks.
With the two lovers united, the evil witch arrives to do the job herself. Intent on killing Rapunzel and reblinding the Prince. United, the two lovers overcome her. (I'm thinking Rapunzels player and myself, share in posting the witch's actions.

Act 5. The Kiss.
With their common enemy defeated, the two lovers entwine for true loves kiss, while behind them the evil witch is forced to 'dance at their betrothal' by having been strung up from a tree branch, her kicking feet as she strangles to death, being her dance.

Then we improvise around that framework, plus we might encounter the other pairs in the forest and go off at a tangent for a while, but we have a skeleton framework to give us direction and bring us back on course.

Comments ?
Too detailed ?

Re: A Gothic Fairytale

@Huscarl I am still accepting and waiting on others to get their characters in! So I will reserve the spot for you!!!

Re: A Gothic Fairytale

Hello there, I've just registered with this site and noticed your entry yesterday, in the looking for players section. You seemed to still have an opening for the role of the Saviour.
I've mulled it over and have some ideas for that character, so I logged in to check the position was still available before writing them out.

I'll work up a more detailed application and hopefully post it in a few hours time.
Oh and I hope this is the right place to post interest, rather than in the looking for players section.

Re: A Gothic Fairytale

Ok, so about the guy, it will take me a bit longer than I expected to get him up, but I will. So hopefully I'll have him up by Wednesday . Sorry for delay. :/ But he will be up. :3

Re: A Gothic Fairytale

I hate to do this, but I must bow out of this RP. Although it looks fantastic, I don't think I could keep up with it and two others. Thanks for giving me the opportunity to be in this RP but I must once again bow out. Thanks for understanding!!

Re: A Gothic Fairytale

I'm excited for this role play. :DDDDDDDDD

Re: A Gothic Fairytale

Yes they will all interact whenever they want to run into eachother. All the male roles are brothers so they can communicate more at first. Sleeping beauty can only communicate with her true love at first then the others will slowly start to see her to. And yes I will reserve both roles.
