Introduction
[ R E B O O T ]
This is, for the most part, a sandbox role-play. You're welcome to create your own plot-points, or simply go along for the ride, whatever you're most comfortable with. There will of course be a basic background idea, but from there you have free creative control over what your character does, and who they do it with.
A little over three decades ago, fictional characters and fairy tales because to quite literally emerge from their story books. The idea was at first rather intriguing to humans, albeit confusing. How bad could it be that their favourite storybook characters were coming to life before their very eyes?
As it turns out, quite bad. You see, these characters were not like the ones we have come to know. They're twisted, hideous creatures who wreak havoc at every given opportunity. At least this is how most people view them. Their kind brought the end of everything humans have worked towards; they destroyed the world.
In an effort to combat the threat that the fairly tales pose to the world and its inhabitants, small teams of hunters were formed to hunt and dispose of them. The most reputable of these teams are the Grimm siblings. Prior to the collapse of the world, the Grimm family were hunters of the supernatural, but no one truly believed them until they were needed the most.
The setting in this role-play can be compared to a dystopian version of the world in which we currently live. Think of it like... The Last of Us, but instead of zombies running around, it's living fairy tales which are perhaps even more dangerous. Most technology is more or less unheard of nowadays, everything is run-down and dreary, and most of the land is under the total control of a Tyrant King who took advantage of the chaos for his own gain and rose to power.
Feel free to PM me if you have questions, or post them in the OOC forum.

More images for these will be added as they are created.
Don't worry about editing the images to these sizes, I'll do that if you give me any sized image or GIF of your character.
1. I'll go ahead and warn everyone that if you're planning on joining this role-play, you should be able to handle mature themes such as excessive foul language, gory details, and some scenes of a sexual nature.
2. You've probably heard this a million times but it's worth mentioning here that if you must write smut, do so privately between yourself and the other role-player. Otherwise just fade-to-black.
3, I'm not setting a limit on the amount of fairy tales and fictional characters, nor the amount of characters each role-player can create, but there will be no more than four brothers/sisters of the Grimm family, and no more than two additional followers.
4. This should be a dark, twisted story! So regarding the fairy tales and whatnot, you should aim to make them as messed up as possible. Of course you don't have to, it's merely encouraged.
5. You could be any well or lesser-known fairy tale you'd like, I really don't mind. When I say fictional character, it could be something from Shakespeare, or just a character your favourite book. I will say, however, that you can't create a character based around someone from a TV show or movie, with the exception of book to TV/film adaptations.
6. I'm not going to be posting a CS template below, but if you struggle with making them from scratch, just message me and I'll make one up. Your sheet should include the following information:
- Basic/personal information, such as their name, age, gender, sexuality, occupation, etc.
- A short description of their appearance and any notable possessions/equipment.
- Another short description of their personality.
- If a fairy tale or fictional character, they are allowed one ability, for which you should also supply weaknesses. It should be related to their story/character.
- Their story, with the twist (if they have one), optionally including other variations of the story, which is their history.
- The Grimm family will have to collaborate to write a history for the siblings.

A Grimm Fate
Most recent OOC posts in A Grimm Fate
Re: A Grimm Fate
The idea here is that she, while not a principle character of a folk tale, was a supporting cast member, as it were, that fell from her own world into this, so very like it. And she would be staying near the ocean, probably in a cabin she's....borrowing. And yes, she would have a massive vendetta against humanity in general, as humans killed her parents.
Face claim would be the lovely Elle Fanning, and her name would be...
Elspeth

Though, I certainly hope I wouldn't be intruding...
The face-claim would be: Eddie Redmayne

Re: A Grimm Fate
Hey!
Can't wait to start <3 <3
And nice character relations Miyer! I'm totally on board with what you came up with for Amelia, Hanna, and Grahem.
Re: A Grimm Fate
If anyone else would like to discusses relations with Hanna and Grahem I'd be thrilled to.
Simon Salazar Grimm β§ Hanna has a slight attraction to Simon, seeing him as this hot, strong and confident leader of one of the most renown hunting groups of the time. However, she wouldn't ever really act on this attraction, due to her brothers close friendship and the fact that she see's the devotion to his family. She would never come first in his eyes. So instead, she treats him like she does her brother, with playful teasing and childish pranks. Always attempting to bring a smile to his usually stoic face.
Luke Lysander Grimm β§ TBD
Amelia Valentina Grimm β§ Hanna see's Amelia as an older sister and possibly her closest friend, despite her being younger, because she is way more in touch with her feminine side and Hanna looks up to her for that, impressed with her complete confidence in herself as a women. They would also get along well seeing as the pair of them are the chattiest of the two sets of siblings.
Anwen Aurelie Grimm β§ Hanna would see Annie as a little sister, someone who she would playfully tease and want to protect, very similar to how her brother treats her. Though they would not have naturally become friends, due to Hanna's good relationship with her siblings, she would of definitely grown attached to the younger girl.
Simon Salazar Grimm β§ Gray would be the closest to Simon, considering how similar their situations were. Both being completely devoted to their families and having to raise them alone in a cruel new world. They would have an easy friendship, if slightly twisted, probably spending the majority of the time planning and strategizing for the next hunt; discussing resource managment; or sometimes just complaining to each other cause no else would really understand the weight of being the oldest and what has happened to them.
Luke Lysander Grimm β§ TBD
Amelia Valentina Grimm β§ He see's traces of his sister in her, and though her loud voice and flirtatious ways can irritate him, she would probably be the one he is most tolerant of. Especially because her and Hanna get along well.
Anwen Aurelie Grimm β§ Despite the age, and height, difference I can see Grahem really getting along with Anwen. Due to her own antisocial tendencies, I think they would find kindred spirits with each other. Though they might not be the best of friends, They are the type who could sit together in silence for hours, just doing their own thing together and never feel awkward.
Re: A Grimm Fate
I'd probably be able to do all of this by tomorrow night but I'm gonna say Friday just to be safe. I've had to spend today working on a forum for a group on another role-playing platform, and it's proving to be a rather difficult task considering the small timeframe I've been given.
Bear with me, guys. We will absolutely start this soon!

Re: A Grimm Fate
So long as everything here adheres to site rules and doesn't actually include any rape, I really don't mind about "consent issues" with regards to kidnapping and the forced marriage, if that ever happens. I don't believe you'll seriously overstep any boundaries but it's worth mentioning nonetheless.
