The King's Quest DT

KeiPie · 2013-04-15T00:51:35Z

The King’s Quest You are one of the few chosen for this very important mission. The king of Isurdru, your homeland, has contacted you, one of his most loyal servants, to join a very specialized group of warriors to go and bright back his most treasured possession, his daughter. A band of evil Azaks attacked the castle and carried off the beautiful princess Laena to their dark kingdom. The way is rough and you must pass an active volcano, go through the valley of spirits, board a ship to cross a sea-monster infested lake, battle evil dragons and wraiths, and much more. Your life will be at risk all the time and your success will rely on both your bravery and your companions. Dare you accept this invitation? DT: http://www.youngwriterssociety.com/viewtopic.php?f=200&t=97667 The warriors. The specialized group of the king’s most loyal warriors include: elves, humans, dwarves, and sprites. Each different type has its own special traits, weapons, and abilities. Elves (think LOTR type) They are tall and majestic and truly beautiful. Usually with long hair, these elves are the tallest of the company. They are not immortal but live to be very old. They have infallible sight that works both at night and in the day. Their main weapon is the bow and arrow and their aim is perfect. They are very clever and work much with their hands to create other weapons and useful items. The only trouble is that they tire easily due to their usually quiet life. They require much rest and recuperation after battling and get sick very often. Humans They have the greatest endurance off the entire group. They are very strong yet not as strong as the dwarves. Their main weapon is the sword and they use it very well. The humans are trackers and usually take charge of those around them. These have great skill with maps and always have a wonderful sense of direction. They tend to use their body as much as their weapons. Punches, kicks, flips, and more, these are very agile and quick. Their weakness is their greed. They get sidetracked by treasure or anything that appears to be treasure. Dwarves The most comic of the company, they are also the most brutal. Dwarves are also the strongest. Their main weapon is the battle ax and their methods for killing are usually pretty gruesome. They eat ten times what the humans do and are usually rude yet their jokes and play keep the company’s morale high. Not the brightest around, they sometimes get lost or confused, but when they get into battle they are irreplaceable. Sprites These come in three forms: The elf-like sprites are nothing like elves. They are more of the fairytale elves we read about. They are small, only about a foot high, and very elegant. They are like little tiny people. Their main weapons small poisoned darts they throw by hand. The poison comes from a plant and rots a person or animal from the inside out. Their size makes them very valuable and they have very basic magical powers. They use their powers to turn some vines into a basket for instance. They can only manipulate the resources they already have with their magic. Because of their size, they are also quite slow and many times must be carried. They have nasty tempers and seem to always be bickering and many times their hotheadedness gets them in trouble. The fairy-like sprites are quite similar to the elf-like sprites in size, shape, and capacities except the fairy kind have wings and can fly long distances. Also, their magic differs. The fairy-like can use their powers to temporarily change sizes or shapes (into an animal, rock, etc.). They do not create things like the elf-like. The fairy-like are less ill-tempered as the elf-like but tend to be very proud. The fairy-like do not use weapons but they usually change into an animal that will be useful to attack (a lion for instance.) The ghost-like sprites are the final category. These are the same size as humans and look pretty much the same. The thing about them is that you can only see them when they are moving. When they stand still they become invisible. With almost white skin, they do look like ghosts. Their main weapons are their daggers which they throw with needle-point precision.They are usually pretty quiet and drive people crazy because they are hard to find. There will be five dragons accompanying the warriors. The first five to call dibs get them. They do not speak but provide quick travel and are also weapons. You can name them if you wish. Character profiles: Name: Age (between 16-30 for humans, 250-500 for elves, 50-70 for dwarves, and sprites can be any age): Gender: Elf, human, dwarf or sprite (if sprite please specify which one): Appearance (a picture is welcome but also describe in words): Personality: History (optional): Dragon: yes/no Other: Slots: Elves: Male- Roukin Luric ~Hopkin Male- Female- Ivy~ bandgeek101 Female- Doe~ Crazycraz Humans: Male- Ignorance has dragon Male- Marlon Grey~ Griffinkeeper Female- Titch Van Ro'Shay~ onedarkhorizon has dragon Female- Imara Landson~ thewritersdream has dragon Dwarves: Male- Glumber Flod~ KeiPie Male- Slounder Bong ~Hopkin Male- Sprites: Elf-like: Male- Leif Vex ~KeiPie Female- Fairy-like: Male- Female- Ayleth Kaduri ~Dakushau Ghost-like: Male- Aureo Nokar ~Dakushau Female- Raven Odare~ littleauthor Tame Dragon: Ahkrin Sunvaar ~Dakushau Rules: The basic no God-modding etc. No swearing!

Ok sorry, I didn't know that some people weren't comfortable with the first person. Let's vote. I would like the whole SB to be in one POV. So please vote first or third person.
As for who goes next, thewritersdream is right, first come first serve.

Hopkin I'll make sure to add your elf but please write your dwarf's profile in sentence structure (capitals at the beginning of sentences etc.) and complete sentences. When the SB starts I really don't want to see anything written this way. Thanks!

I don't care either way. (will go with majority)

I believe in that, which is not seen.
I call it truth, faith, hope, life.

Do we all have to be in one POV? Because I prefer to write more in first person. Of course, if we do have to all be in one POV I don't want everyone else to be uncomfortable so I'd just go with it.

What if we went along with it? some people do first person, others third, I like third, and I know people who like first, although third is better for a group, just saying.

Hey! This sounds cool, so I'm in, if you want me to?

Millions of miles from home
In the darkness before the dawn
In the swirling of this storm
When I'm rolling with the thunder
But bleed from thorns
Leave a light, a light on.
