@Holy SoldierThis is a really nice twist on Hansel. Sweet related powers? I hadn't considered someone going for that angle. That's absolutely delightful. Excellent formatting, beautiful descriptions, Hansel is accepted in my book. Drag's acceptance is needed but I'm sure they'll love this too.

@Holy Soldier Did you ever read Neil Gaiman's version of Hansel and Gretel? It's a really sweet little book, nice example of retelling a story in a way super similar to its older, more traditional versions, but still giving it personality and uniqueness. I think it's the only version of Hansel and Gretel I've read that really tried to make the mother figure sympathetic. Also, seconding, the candy-related abilities are super cool.

@Crosswire@DragI imagined "The Woodsmen" being the same one in Hansel and Gretel's story, ie. their father. Which could have been the same in Little Red Riding Hood's and The Big Bad Wolf's story. It just seemed interesting.

I love that idea. Having the two related to The Woodsmen would likely make things twice as uncomfortable for B.B. I bet they still consider her a threat or some kind of malicious nuisance given dear old dad slit her stomach and threw her into a river with rocks in her belly.

@Holy Soldier I like Hansel, interested to see how Gretel turns out as well now. Hansel is accepted

@MissCapnCrunch Bambi looks good, accepted in my books but I'm not sure if Cross missed your sign up, I'll wait to see what they have to say first but I don't see any problems with the sign up

@Crosswire @Drag And lo, she is done. No rush on getting back to me about this. I know it's long, and I'm willing to cut whatever you think is too much.

@Lexicon You weren't kidding about the length lol. I skimmed it a bit the first time I read so I made sure to check it all second go, it looks pretty good to me. I guess my only complaint would be that she does seem slightly too powerful however given the nature of the character and the fact that one of her weaknesses is light, something that isn't in overly short supply, I'm more or less ok with it, again just gotta see what Cross thinks and then you should be all set.

@Utrax I'm still holding out the weak hope that he looks like the same Mothman from Batman.

@Drag Roger that. Honestly, I figured between the light thing and her total inability to resist magic she's not exactly a one Tale army. I'm going to keep tinkering with verbiage and phrasing over the next few days. Also, I did mention a sealed envelope with some of the pictures from the sheet being placed outside Crier's office. Feel free to do with them what you will since I didn't really have any concrete plans for them. Totally up to you and @Crosswire.

@Lexicon Hmmm, I may have a few ideas, gonna have to get back to you on that one though and see if we can hash out something with it

@MissCapnCrunch Looks pretty good to me, though I'm sure a brother who's addicted to sweets and a sister who sells addictive sweets can't be the healthiest relationship lol. If Cross is good with her then she's accepted

@MissCapnCrunch Crap, I'm sorry. Didn't mean to overlook your application. Drug dealing Bambi is awesome! I'd be fine if you wanted to beef her up a bit but I can understand if you'd want to keep her as is. She's accepted in my book :D

Gretal is in the same boat as Bambi, good but I wouldn't be against giving her a buff if you wanted.

Also heads up, I intend on rolling out Mothman's sheet.

I'm down with that!

@Lexicon In all fairness I'm a little squeamish about how flat out powerful Boogie is. However you really don't seem like the power playing type Lexicon. You just want to make a neat character and help create a good story. So as long as you don't try to edge out on any of Boogie's weaknesses in a fight against some of the less fantastically powered Tales, we'll be fine.

Though admittedly I can't read through your entire sheet given my current state. I didn't see anything unacceptable, so I'll give it a green light, but I'd appreciate it if you were open to any after acceptance changes should anything crazy come up.

But that likely won't happen.

Anyway, great job!

@Drag@Crosswire You both are awesome, and please understand I'm not at all interested in meta-gaming or trying to make my character overpowered. Every accepted character, from Bambi to Hansel, has a way to deal with the Boogieman. Whether it's light or magic, Boogie is far from invincible. And if she uses her fear sense on a player character I would certainly ask the other player if they want the ability to succeed or fail. I'm not going to automatically assume it works unless there's some kind of extenuating circumstance. I appreciate both of you being willing to compromise, and if you can think of anything in particular you'd like me to change then I'm open to it. The word of the GMs is law, and, as you said, what's important is telling an interesting story. I'll keep tinkering with Boogie's sheet, but I'll move her over to the 'Characters' tab in the meantime.

@Crosswire

Thank you!
Also, it's okay :) Sometimes things get lost in pages.

As far as beefing them up, I think I'll keep them as is for now. I wanted Bambi to be very meek and powerless. She's a deer afterall. Though deer are very powerful, they tend to run and get caught in the headlights. As for Gretal she's powerful in deceitful ways. A murderer in reality when you think about it. She's a bad mama jama. Hahaha.

Would you like me to do two posts or one post in the bin for my characters?
