Elim's attacks seemed to work, the fiery glaive doing as it was intended and slicing through the giant's legs quite easily. But Elim failed to take into account the fact the creature was made out of inanimate materials and therefore felt absolutely no pain or annoyance at the attacks. Sure, chunks of its legs were hacked to pieces but more simply reformed in its place, effectively regrowing the giant's lost "flesh", as it were. It roared, raising its big, clawed hand to swipe at Elim when it suddenly stopped. An invisible began holding it in place, and further still pushing it downwards. This was the result of Simo's spell, but there was an unexpected side effect. The giant, still standing on the ice bridge, became increasingly desperate as the magically enhanced weight caused cracks to start appearing on the lower half of the ice bridge. After only another moment there was the sound of a thousand windows being shattered as the ice platform gave out and crumbled beneath the giant. But it was still too early to celebrate.

The spell wore off in time for a small, red piece of ice to rocket upward and onto the summit of the mountain. It just floated there but only for a moment, as piles of snow and hunks of ice began rapidly gathering around it to form the shape of the giant. It stamped the ground, roaring once more to signify that it still had a ways to go before it would be defeated. In fact, as it roared it dug its claws into the snow and catapulted piles of the stuff forward in an attempt to bury Simo and Elim alive.

Meanwhile, in the ice palace, Jared's Keyblade seemed to make quick work of the Shadow Heartless, but the Soldier variety proved more tenacious, taking multiple strikes from the blade to be defeated. Things weren't helped by the Shadows seemingly forming from the ground with no sign of an end. Jared had proven a capable fighter thus far, but he knew he wouldn't be able to keep this up forever, not while outnumbered and while trying to protect an unarmed Queen. Though Elsa wouldn't be counted out just yet, as she able to throw her icy magic at the Heartless, freezing many of them solid and leaving them helpless to Jared's blade.

"We can't keep this up!" exclaimed Jared as he finished off a wave. No more appeared and he was momentarily relieved, but that relief was immediately washed away when a new type of Heartless appeared, winged devils with a stronger-looking one apparently commanding them. That one was leading the attack, for sure, as it mostly stayed in place pointing here and there while the others swooped and attacked as directed.

Right... no more waiting, let's just carry on. Next world will be a different one than I first planned, but it will allow for the adding of new characters so we can just recruit a new player or two to replace Thundercat and Sezir should they not come back by the time we're done with Frozen.

Kingdom Hearts: Darkness Reborn

So... there's still no activity even WITH a boss battle. *sigh* Any longer and I'll have to use drastic measures (dropping characters like flies and recruiting new players).

Legend of Zelda RolePlay Idea

If one of the aforementioned champions can be a Mage/Wizard of some kind, then I'm game.

Kingdom Hearts: Darkness Reborn

It's a bit late for this, but this RP will function on the idea of actions and consequences. Character's actions can and will have consequences that crop up later on. So yeah, anything stupid a character does will certainly come back to bite them in the ass somehow. Just a fair warning.

Kingdom Hearts: Darkness Reborn

That was the way I had written it, but your previous post (which I admittedly failed to remember when writing mine) suggests that Elim made it as well, which I have no problem with, honestly, so if you want to write Elim making it inside with Jared then be my guest.

Kingdom Hearts: Darkness Reborn

Jared is in the castle. You guys are still on the bridge. That's why the Mid Boss is divided into two encounters.

The Mushroom Kingdom Freedom Fighters

Jin

Name: Jin

Gender: M

Age: 22

Race: Goomba

Appearance: Jin is a blue Goomba, from the same ilk that is usually patrolling sewers and other dark, underground passages scattered about the Mushroom Kingdom. Jin is different from the others, however, keeping most of his body wrapped in a dark shroud of a cloak complete with a long, flowing muffler scarf. A curved, short-bladed sword is always seen strapped to the Goomba's back, serving as his primary weapon of choice and in his own words, his "only true ally". Under his shroud, Jin hides the wings of a Para-Goomba, preferring to keep that fact a secret from everybody except those he deems worthy of his trust.

Personality: Despite having served King Bowser in the past, Jin has no love for the Koopa King, and in fact would like nothing more than for the Koopa's blood to stain his blade. That's not to say that he doesn't hold any grudges against the intrepid Mario and Luigi, quite the opposite in fact. After all, many Goombas who were Jin's friends and family had met their end via the stomping shoes of the Mario Brothers, and so Jin's vendetta extends to them as well. However, it was the Koopa King's greed that forced the poor Goombas into their never-ending war against the Mushroom Kingdom and Bowser's own incompetence that constantly led to their continual defeat, thus it is the Koopa who bears the brunt of Jin's wrath. Otherwise, Jin is often quiet and reserved, content to remain in silence while others make the important decisions, his only real desire being to know who the next target will be, and whether they are connected to King Bowser or not.

Techniques: Being of the Goomba family, one would think Jin to be as slow and cumbersome as his kinsmen, but they would be wrong. Jin is shockingly fast and agile, his Goomba legs and feet able to move him about the battlefield as quickly as a runaway Koopa shell. His wings, should he use them, can propel him upwards, effectively flying at his leisure. But Jin is no bird, and his flights are by no means indefinite, as the size of his body compared to his wings only allows them to lift his body for so long before they tire out and need a rest. Jin, like just about all Goombas, possesses the mysterious ability to pick up and wield objects as if he had hands, despite very clearly not having any. When wielding his sword, Jin prefers quick strokes that come in rapid succession, as he finds most opponents have greater difficulty defending against such a quick onslaught, though the rapid speed of the attacks do subtract from the strength of the individual swings and vice versa. Finally, Jin can resort to a shadow illusion technique wherein he conjures duplicates of himself to surround and confuse the enemy while Jin himself strikes once their guard is down. The duplicates can move and even speak but are unable to do any physical harm, and are individually dispelled by being attacked, and can all be simultaneously dispelled should the real Jin take a hit and lose concentration.

Brief background history: Jin was born from a clan of Dark Goombas that inhabited the caves and sewer systems of the Mushroom Kingdom. Knowing that their kind was generally weak, they used these underground areas to hide from enemies and predators, using the darkness of the passages to hide and become masters of stealth. When King Bowser began recruiting Goomba and Koopa tribes to his cause, he made sure to seek out Jin's clan, having heard of their mastery of stealth and hoped to have them use it to launch ambushes and assassination attacks on the likes of Mario and Luigi as they came to the Princess's rescue. They were unwilling at first, but Bowser was able to threaten them into joining his forces, and of course from there they suffered defeat after defeat at the hands of the Mario Brothers, many dying from being stomped by one of the Brothers' signature jump attacks. Over time, Jin grew embittered toward the Mario brothers due to the tragic losses of his family and clansmen, but also increasingly disgruntled at having to serve a tyrant like Bowser. When the brothers mysteriously vanished, Jin took it as a sign that now was the time to cut whatever remained of his loyalties to Bowser, and finally do what he should have done ages ago: kill the Koopa King, and liberate his Goomba kinsmen from his tyrannical and idiotic rule.

As promised, I moved this thing along. Now you've got yourselves a boss battle to respond to. Hope that's sufficient enough.

Kingdom Hearts: Darkness Reborn

Jared got about halfway up the stairs when he heard screams coming from inside. Well, that certainly wasn't a good sign. The shouts belonged to men, though, so it was the figures who were in danger and not necessarily the Queen. That was good news... sort of. He personally preferred if no one died, to be honest, but at least the attackers were the ones getting what they deserved. When the palace doors swung open, Jared stopped. He had to dive to the side to avoid being trampled over by a short mustachioed man and his crossbow-armed pair bodyguards as they barreled outside and down the stairs. Of course, this being a narrow stairway, Jared didn't exactly have anywhere to dive to, so he had to quickly summon his Keyblade and jam it into the side of the ice just give himself something to hold on to.

He'd only just managed to climb back back up when something else burst from the doors. It was kind of like a snowman, only the size of an adult human, but snow and ice quickly gathered around it, piling on top of the thing until it became monstrous in size. Jared blinked and instinctively ducked as the monster made a giant leap halfway down the stairs. As soon as it hit, the ice behind it cracked. Jared's eyes widened expectantly and he scrambled up the remainder of the steps as the stairs crumbled behind him. He reached the safety of the top, but realized he had no way of getting down to help his friends fight this giant.

"You guys get the Princess out of here!" he shouted down to his friends, "Don't worry about the Queen, just leave that to me!" after that he turned and entered through the icy doors. Once inside, he saw broken pieces of glass all over the floor of what was likely an ante chamber of sorts, and he spotted a lady in a blue dress about to run away into another room, but she stopped when she heard the doors and turned to see Jared. Despite her eyes being teary and ready to cry, she had an angry look on her face.

"How many times do I have to tell you people to leave. Me. ALONE!" on the last word she thrust out her hand and a snowy energy burst forth and flew right at Jared, who thrust his Keyblade up defensively, catching the icy magic onto the blade before fling it aside. This seemed to surprise the girl, "What? What are you?"

"Wait, it's okay!" Jared said, dismissing the Keyblade so he could be unarmed, "I don't know what those three guys did, but I swear I'm not with them. I just want to take you home to the kingdom, that's all."

"And just why should I believe you? And even if I did, what if I don't want to go back?" she retorted coldly.

"You don't understand, I came here with - look out!" Jared was interrupted and sprang forward, re-summoning the Keyblade and striking down a small Heartless that appeared behind the girl who could only be Queen Elsa.

"What did you - Ah!" Elsa pointed to where Jared had stood. More Heartless appeared, mostly the same small black ones and small armored ones that had attacked Lunaris, "What are they?"

"Heartless, Your Majesty." responded Jared, putting himself between Elsa and the creatures, "And it looks like they're blocking our only exit. I hope you can use that magic of yours to fight, 'cause I think we're gonna need it."
