Personally I left those out of mine because I had enough info/ my character has no romantic interests in the RP. I think shipping relates to their relationship perhaps and tale is their background :) @LuminescentAnt

Hey guys, just making sure that this is right, before I make the first post! Please like this/reply if I asked a question about your item/name :D And also to confirm that the character I named is the one who will be completing the quest/finding the item. Their name and item will be mentioned in the prophecy I am posting.

(also sorry for so many tags the last few days but I promise once this gets rolling I will not be tagging y'all this much XD)

User/character name/ magical item:

Ellie/Lynn/Most hated person in the land

@Inferno/ Blanchette Red /The fruit that induces death (snow whites apple)

@LuminescentAnt/ Sephorgrasp "Phor" Emeraldblade/ septer (ant- I am assuming that this is a staff carried by an important figure?)

@JazzElectrobass/Luxury Sundae(or should I use the full name?) / specific rock (should I just call it a rock? or to make it more poetic can I call it magical/enchanted/priceless/desired/ a stone/ boulder? any more details? XD or if you want to keep it vague I can also just say 'rock' too!)

@AmayaStatham/ Shanti / Magic Lotus to cure any sickness

@EllieMae it is a special scepter gifted to a monarch from their Chief Advisor when they have achieved the status of being a "Great King" or "Great Queen" and they have been very kind and generous to their people to a point that the Chief Advisor and other advisors think the monarch is worthy. It is gold and has an emerald orb at the top, secured by strands of gold wrapping around it. It signifies great power and greatness I guess. Phor's mother used to wield it, and so she has to earn it in order to get it. So yeah, it WAS being carried by an important figure until she died and now it lies in the family vault only to be taken out when a monarch is worthy. Sorry that's a lot of background but hopefully this is helpful?

Thank you so much, Ant! That is exactly what I needed :D The prophecy is going to be very vague, but I wanted to make sure I hint in the right direction and didn't throw off your story!!! Thanks!!

Also what are we all thinking for a time frame for our story? Originally I was writing that they had four weeks, until the next full moon, to gather the objects, but I feel that may be too short? I could make it way longer- like 6 months/a year instead? Or what do you guys think you would need time wise for your tales?

Hmm I think my character will need at least a month/four weeks but I feel like a year or six months is too long? I don't know about other peoples' characters though.

Makes total sense! We can also set it as a month and then if you need more time you could do "flashbacks" to stuff that has happened before, or even start by telling past events :) I will def have flashbacks in mine!

a few months sounds good!
The nickname is fine XD
And just a specific rock. That's it. :)

Awesome! I will say "four weeks, until the next full moon" but feel free to use flashbacks or start in the past if you need more time :)

First post is up! Narrator stuff will be written in 'small caps' font, but the rest of my stuff for my actual OC will be normal font. Feel free to post your first posts anytime now! I will have mine up soon :)

YESS! You got it all right for my character. SO EXCITED!!!

The posts look so so so good so far friends! Inferno just a reminder, I recommend you add your characters name at the top of the post so we know who is speaking/who’s post that is :) @Inferno

You can use this code, or make your own design like Amaya did:

Code: Select all
[center][small-caps][b] Characters name[/b][/small-caps][/center]
