Hello. I'm sorry to have to do this but I don't really want to be in this SB if you're going to disallow homosexuality. I wasn't going to make my character gay but I think that not allowing gay characters is just making there less interesting plot lines. I also don't really understand the decision to not allow homosexuality. Even if you don't agree with it, it exists, and it's interesting for plots. I love homosexual characters in my novels. A homosexual relationship between two of the princes/princesses in this storybook would have been a great plotline and, if it was discovered, could have really made things interesting with the marriage arrangements, particularly if any of the Kings or QUeens had been against homosexuality. I'd also just like to mention that I'm a Christian and I don't really understand where you're coming from with that decision for reasons above.
I'm sorry to have to leave. I hope you guys who are left enjoy this.
Hey! Sorry I've been totally out of this DT... But I'm checking in My character is the princess from Draconia, Blair. And @AriaAdams, Blair and Dae are both kind of dark characters and I think they can get along really well. I really want Blair to look up to her older brother a ton and talk to him about everything.... What do you think?

I would normally absolutely love it - however, as I've informed yubbies, I agree with almost everything guineapiggirl just said above, and hence I'm no longer participating in this SB. It's not about wanting to fight for gay rights or discussing religion, but about making twists in the story..and I like making my twists in the way this SB's creator doesn't approve - so I've decided it's on me to leave and find (or make) myself a different place to do it my way c:
Same goes for a few others, whom, I'm sure, you will all hear from.

I agree with Aria and guineapiggirl on this point. I've just informed yubbies that I will be leaving too. I had a few interesting ideas, but I'm pretty sure that they'll be rejected, and I feel that it isn't very fair on the SBrs to reject ideas so finally like that.

I withdraw also, and I really hope that someone will make another SB like this so all of us withdrawing can continue with our characters. Its nothing personal yubbies, but there were homosexuals in the middle ages and restricting anyone with a homosexual character or idea is also restricting the SB. I hope we can be fellow SBers again in the future yubbies, but I withdraw my character over this specific topic.

The simple truth is that authors like making people squirm. If this weren't the case, all novels would be filled completely with cute bunnies having birthday parties. — Brandon Sanderson, Alcatraz Versus the Evil Librarians
