Though no one knows how the lines between Earth and Wonderland become blurred we do know these wink links allow for portals. Still, whether you came to this place through a small attic door or by a hole in the floor, each of the ‘Alices’ are always welcome. If one finds themselves stuck in Wonderland, the best thing you can do to pass the time is just enjoy the ride. From theme parks to being royally attired for a ball, there is never a dull moment. Unfortunately, all is not 'happily ever afters' and rainbows as Wonderland is in the middle of a long waging civil war. Two siblings fight for a right to the crown. The White King prefers to ignore the new arrivals, his sole focus based on his kingdom. The Red King, on the other hand, tries to kidnap and imprison the ‘Alices’ in the hopes of unlocking the way back to the real world where he can release his dark magic. Don't be disheartened as you are in the Hatter's good hands. Enjoy your stay, and most importantly don’t get caught.[/i][/b][/center] [b]Locations:[/b] [color=darkturquoise][b]Mad Hatter Estates:[/b][/color] [hider='Home of Alices'][img]http://si.wsj.net/public/resources/images/RV-AF168_MASTER_G_20111202014028.jpg[/img][/hider] [i]Welcome one. Welcome all to the crazy Hatter’s Estate halls. Don’t be down-hearted, don’t you fear. You’ll soon find out, we’re all mad here.[/i] This is the place where all the ‘Alices’ live, owned by the renowned Mad Hatter. Both the Hare and the Door-mouse (people) are available to the ‘Alices’ disposal and are the estate’s personal help. Within the mansion itself, there is a bedroom hall for the ladies (East Wing) which is separate from the West Wing where the boy’s dormitory is found. On the first floor, one will find the diner area the general layout similar to that of a tea parlor. Large windows allow for easy access to the beautiful scenery. If we move down to the ground floor there is an indoor pool area. Other accessories of the home include private balconies, a roof garden, ballroom, a grand library, and studio rooms. Throughout the year the Hatter will throw balls as well as other various events relating to ‘Earth’ holidays including (but not limited to) Halloween, Thanksgiving, and Christmas parties. Once a thought comes into his head he will send out invitations and post the idea in the grand hall. The Hatter also owns the town in which the estate resides. In the town there are many shops including a hat and clothing shop ran by the Hatter (a good place for one to find work), Bakery shops, Trinket shops, among many more. If you need a job and don't know where to go he is your man. [color=gold][b]Katrina’s Garden:[/b][/color] [hider=The Garden][img]https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/originals/03/60/01/0360015313003f9121cd97721a62b1a5.jpg[/img][/hider] [hider=Candied Rose][img]https://usercontent2.hubstatic.com/1801320_f260.jpg[/img][/hider] Katrina’s garden is a place of magic and beauty. The trees grow candied leaves and bare the sweetest fruits. In the middle of the garden is a waterfall that flows out a liquid with no description; it simply tastes like whatever you want it to, from sodas to milkshakes there is no limitation The roses grow multicolored and each color is a different flavor. Snazzle bushes grow sour candies of every variety. If you have a sweet tooth of any kind, Katrina’s garden is the place to fill it. An ‘Alice’ must be wary of what they place in their mouth, as not all of the plants are edible. Many of the flowers in the garden are alive in more ways than one. They can be rather full of gossip so one must heed before taking anything to heart. Still, they are extraordinarily loyal and if you befriend them they will protect you from scouts of the Red King(they have no fear in telling a lie or two). Katrina herself lives in a small garden home and is often in the company of the Cheshire cat. She loves having visitors so if you are feeling down-hearted, want to be surrounded by nature, or just want to have tea her home is always open. If you are unable to find her here she is probably at her bakery in town. If you please you may find work with her either in the garden or at her bakery. [color=forestgreen][b]Cheshire’s Woods (Wanderer’s Doom) :[/b][/color] [hider=Woods][img]http://ghostsnghouls.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/creepy_woods2.jpg[/img][/hider] [hider=Chess' Home][img]http://worth1000.s3.amazonaws.com/submissions/389000/389378_e82f_1024x2000.jpg[/img][/hider] Cheshire lives in the Wanderer’s Doom, a place of secrecy and darkness. No one daring to travel in has ever found their way out, at least not on their own. The trees are cruel and they like to get wanderers lost and play tricks on all who enter. One must be wary of all illusions as things are not always as they seem. Only the Cheshire cat, with his ability to disappear, has ever been able to figure out the mystery of these woods. His home lies in the center and the only way to ever get to it is if lead by the Cheshire himself. Next to a waterfall, his home consist of an upper house, where Chess actually lives and a lower section which is ironically a guest home. The only other creature in the woods are the dangerous of all is the twelve foot tall 'man-eating' gummy bears that call this region their home. Just kidding, they are deliciously harmless….just ask Chess. (; [b]White Castle:[/b] [hider=Castle of Light][img]http://static1.squarespace.com/static/544f141de4b06b2a44d7a24a/54586e78e4b09e91100aeffe/54586eb6e4b073a023c12a57/1419043976225/Allice_CASTLE_FINAL_1500.jpg?format=750w[/img][/hider] This is the location of the White Queen. She runs all of Wonderland and though her heart is good there is much secrecy here too. There is little known about this area as it is suggested the ‘Alices’ do not get involved with the royalty’s affairs. Wonderland has been involved in a long civil war, although the spats have not been as dangerous as some have assumed. The two siblings are a mystery. However, we do know that the White Queen fights against her brother for the better good. If you ever have any problems above the Hatter’s grasp this would be the next safe option…but should only be a last resort. [color=red][b]Red Castle:[/b][/color] [hider=Castle of Hearts][img]http://images2.fanpop.com/image/polls/399000/399038_1268784375550_full.jpg?v=1268784394[/img][/hider] This is the home of the Red King (a devilishly handsome man who seems to be even more so personality wise). Try not to fall under a spell of love if you find yourself face to face with him. He captures ‘Alices’ and locks them away in hopes of discovering how they enter and leave Wonderland. He likes to make the girls fall for his adding them into his “Collection of Hearts”. Always stay on your toes. On off chance he doesn’t lock you away he will undoubtedly use you for ransom. However, if you fall under his graces you will find yourself in one of the most beautiful and eloquent places in Wonderland. There is no palace filled with more luxuries than that of hearts. [center][color=DeepPink][b]Once Upon A Rabbit Hole:[/b][/color] Wonderland can be a dream or a nightmare depending on the perspectives and simple tricks of the mind. Everyone fantasizes of escaping to a mystical realm where they can escape the day to day melancholy of normal life. But what if they can't wake up? When reality tears its way through the mind enchantments can falter as doubts set hopes aflame. Does time stop in the 'real' world simply from slipping into this one? For surely this can only be a dream! You'll wake up tucked softly in your bed with the warm feeling of adventure fresh in your heart. [i]Perhaps.[/i] Or maybe your parents are desperately looking for their beloved child, calling a cell phone 20, 40 times. Your little sister cries not understanding why you would leave them without a word. Hours turn into days as you disappeared without a trace. Maybe as you are being threatened by the Red King, sentenced to death by guillotine...maybe just maybe, you don't wake up after this. Try not to worry too much young Alice. We'd hate for you to go mad.~[/center] [Color=DarkOrange][u][b]Rules:[/b][/u][/color] [list][*] Communication. There is a reason this one is on top! If you have a problem with anything at any time in this RP than please feel encouraged to talk with me or in a group of the GMs. Speak up, I am not a mind reader but I do want everyone to enjoy themselves as much as I can. [*] The first also leads into this one, if you are going to be gone for a [i]few[/i] days or more than please notify again me or the group of GMs. That way we can work in you being gone so everything doesn't come to a standstill. I do not expect everyone to be posting 24/7, after all this is supposed to be fun and entertaining, not pressuring. However, there's no fun with characters being away the whole time without notification if they're still interested in participating in this RP at all. [*]Don't be mean to each other! Respect is important here! If you have a problem with someone, either talk it out in a PM or let me or the group of GMs know so they can handle it as well! [*] If you have an idea, please share it! Speak your mind! I want everyone to be a part of this RP. The growing and the movement of it all. [*] If you have read all my rules then put 'portal' at the bottom of your profile [*] You must post at least one paragraph minimum (5-7 sentences per paragraph). More is always good. [*] You can play a maximum of two characters unless permission has been granted by me. [*] The 'portal' is a lie so write 'madness' instead. Making sure not too many people skimmed. Be sure to read the rule under this one cause it is important and I will know straight away if you didn't read it. [*] After an initial post, you must wait for two other people to post before you may post again. Sometimes conversations may force a post to have to be sooner but maybe not. [*] Have fun and welcome to RP!
