[OOC] Legend of Zelda: A New Story

[Apollosarcher]

Alright so I had an idea for our Hero this time around. Also if some of us mention a previous roleplay that's because we did one like this before.

Link's ability ability or theme for this one is being able to swap minds with past Links, to remember things long forgotten or find items that were left behind by that same Link years ago.

What do you all think?

[GodOfWar]

Alright, I'm closing submission we have a cool little group.

@Apollosarcher

YAY!!!

IDK.

[Abillioncats]

My picture for Zelda.

Sounds good to me.

[JDizzle383]

I like the idea. gives a fresh take on possibilities while keeping the Hero separate from his predecessors.

The Hero of the Mind anyone?

[Apollosarcher]

So I know this might be a little unorthodox but I was wondering what idea's some of you had for your characters? Things you'd like to explore or have you characters go though.

[Abillioncats]

Well, I think Ill go on an adventure instead of sitting in a castle waiting to get kidnapped.

Princesses sneak out of castles all the time right?

[Apollosarcher]

@Abillioncats Sounds good.

[GreenGoat]

My plans for Ganon? He's the older version of himself. Since there is only one Ganondorf, he should have a lot to think about.

[Lady Seraphina]

I'll take Zelda if no one else has claimed her, I'll get a pic for her when I can.

@Abillioncats

Just so we're clear, Zelda is not a catgirl. I hope you still want to be a part of this after that shocking revelation :)

@Apollosarcher

I think this was sort of obvious in the previous RP but I want Navi to have to go through a journey of redemption. She (and a good number of other OoT characters) blame herself for Link becoming the Hero's Shade.

Also @JDizzle383 I don't know if you're interested or not but in our previous RP Shadow Link was a magical entity, The Champion of Shadows just as Link is the Champion of Light. Every time a new Link was called Shadow Link reformed with a new body and skills to match the current hero. Rather than being able to use the Hero's equipment (Hookshot, bombs, bow and arrow) Shadow Link could instead use magic. We didn't explore that very far but one of it's functions gave him the ability to shed his Shadowy appearance and become Link's doppelganger completely. He was also able to melt into Shadows much as the Twili do. His goal was to defeat Link and corrupt the Master's Sword, once he had done that he was given the gift of becoming fully human since as a Shadow he is unable to truly be apart of the human world.

I don't know if that interpretation interests you or not but that's what we did last time and you're welcome to use some, all or completely disregard it as the fancy strikes you.

@Prince of Seraphs

Hey now, I don't always rp catgirls, just half of the time. =p

You'll have your wise Princess no worries, she might get Tetra's attitude though haha.

[Lady Seraphina]

One more thing I should mention. After OoT Link disappeared into the Lost Woods the OoT Zelda stricken with grief declared Navi an enemy of the crown. She banished her from Hyrule and struck her name from all the legends. So unless you're playing a character that would have had actual real life contact with Navi in the OoT days then you're character won't know who she is.

@Li Well her Link and this Link might be very different people. Also I don't think it's written stone that Princess Zelda and Link get together.

Great plot, I'll RP along with it.

@Apollosarcher

I am interested in going with Skull Kid being lured back to the unholy magic of Majora's mask. As You said, Link would be using the knowledge of the past Heroes to guide him in finding long lost hyrulian artifacts, what better relic to represent the child link of Termina like Majora's Mask? Skull Kid, being the last troubled host of the mask, would most likely don the devilishly potent item once it manifested itself as one of link's quest items (Either by it awakening again or due to some other conjuring incident). This, in turn, leads to Skull Kid becoming a walking, talking 'Objective'. Even if Link doesn't go for acquiring the mask first thing in his journey, SK and Majora could still be a troubling shadow in the bushes, attacking and setting elaborate traps for the Hero along the road, so he they could right what wronged Majora them so many years ago, in that dream-like world of Termina.

[Apollosarcher]

@GodOfWar I'd recommend talking with Zmerr.He'll be playing the mask salesman maybe you could work something out with him?

@Apollosarcher

I'll send him a PM, most definently.

[Apollosarcher]

Alright if anyone would like to work out anything with Link do feel free to send me a PM.

[Zmerr]

Wait, what's wrong with the Happy Mask Salesman?

@GodOfWar

I'm not really so sure that is a good idea. The Majora's Mask was a force so powerful and chaotic that it was locked away much like the Fused Shadows. In MM we see the the mask is both psychotic, vengeful and capable of destroying all of Termina. As far as I'm aware it rivals even the Triforce pieces and the mask wants everything to burn. Do we really want to give one of our everyday characters that kind of power.

I was thinking that for Saria, she leaves Kokiri Forest to pay a visit to Link since it has been so long from of their little adventures from their childhood. She somehow gets involved with his adventures because she's always supporting him. She's there to be of good conscious and a good friend to him. She has feelings for him but she is well-aware that his feelings are towards Zelda so she doesn't hold them resentment for that.

Does that make sense? ^^;

@Li

I think I mentioned this before but OoT Link is long dead and turned to the Hero's Shade. Apollo is portraying a new Hero. Also I was under the impression that the Kokiri weren't suppose to leave the forest. I thought their immortality was suspended outside the woods, so they'd start aging normally again. I mean one night of fun in Hyrule fields at the end of OoT is one thing. The Kokiri aren't going to suffer if they age another day but possibly months on the road with Link might not be good for Saria. Then again if the world is in danger she might be willing to sacrifice that kind of time.

@Prince of Seraphs

You have a great point there, but it also is a prominent relic in LoZ history. Hmmm... We could switch it out for one of the more generic magic masks within MM, but I don't believe anyone but link could access their transformation power. Plus, almost all of them are possessed by the happy mask salesman, we may need to just assume HMS has kept Majora's Mask since the catastrophe in Termina.
