What about them looking like a cracked or even broken porcelain doll? Would that be a possibility?

May I have Ajoran hand Darin her circlet in my next post?

@Haha

Perhaps I should of asked these questions sooner. I will ask them now.

How often are you expecting posts?

What length of posts are you looking for?

What are the dos and don'ts for our characters? Is there anything we should avoid? What would you like to see?

I will not be able to craft a character sheet until Friday night. Will that be alright?

You answers may spark more questions.

I'm interested. How many people are you looking for? The only one of those inspiration sources I know is Madoka Magica. Will that be a problem?

Roleplayer Guild's First Pet Pageant!

I don't have any pets, but will all the pictures be in the voting thread? Please say yes. Because I am super excited for this. Like way stoked!

The Tree of Astra (LadyAnnaLee and Blackfridayrule)

Ridahne’s suggestion was sound, but Darin found herself saying, “Children.” She smiled as she reclaimed the trinkets, “They can come closer.” She indicated a place just about her chest, “The ones that are this height. Well I suppose that height is a bad indication. So maybe no older than about to start an apprenticeship.” She smiled at Ajoran, “I’m not sure how old that would be. In humans it would about 13, 14, 15.” She smiled, “It still surprises me how much older Ridahne is than me. Just talking to her I would assume she was at most a few years older than me.” She whispered as imparting a deep secret, “I’m only 20.”

That was the end of that conversation as they reached the shore. Darin forced a smile to her face as they disembarked. Her attention was grabbed by the sound of Taja announcing his presence. The hawk circled over the three of them for a moment before coming in. Darin held out her arm and bent her knees to help disperse the momentum his swift dive created. Darin heard the shocked gasps at the bird’s display, but the human didn’t care. Her smile was certainly less forced and more genuine as Taja flapped his wings again. Darin tossed her arm upwards to help him take flight. He circled again before disappearing again. He left a few feathers behind that Darin ignored.

Then she told Ridahne, “Coconut trees. I would like to see them.”

The human followed Ajoran and Ridahne to their destination. She couldn’t do anything about the crowd that was following her, so she took her sister’s advice and ignored them. Darin wanted to see these trees without branches and try her hand at climbing them. Based on how Ridahne had described them she was imagining something similar to spring poles used for dancing back home. She didn’t think that climbing them would be easy, but hopefully her belt would go all the way around. If so, she had a plan. If her belt did not go all the way around, she might be in trouble.

Occasionally a child would make it pass the guard set by Ridahne and Ajoran. Darin took the trinkets as she ruffled hair and laughed with them. A boy with closely shorn hair handed her a grey stone shot though with streaks of white which had what Darin knew was the symbol for Astra on it. A girl that only came up to Darin’s waist handed her a carefully done wood carving of a star. A boy with dark solemn eyes held out a sheet of blue stone so thin that when she held it up to the light, she could almost see though it. Darin was worried about what would happen if she dropped it. A set of near identical girls came with a circle woven out of some sort of leaf that Darin didn’t know. She solemnly knelt to let them place in on her head. It was slightly too big and tilted to one side. Before they could get too upset about it, Darin swept them up. They giggled as she spun them around before running off when she put them down. It was shortly after they left that they stopped before a tree. It was mostly branchless, but the trunk lent towards the ocean. She could see leaves up above and knew what her circlet was made of now.

Knowing she was being watched she made sure to speak only to Ridahne, “I didn’t think you were lying, but I’m not sue I believe that there were trees without branches until this moment.” She hopped around on one foot as she removed her boots, “This may be tricky.”

She exclaimed as she almost tumbled over from the bouncing on one foot. She started to laugh as she regained her balance by suddenly grabbing Ridahne’s arm. Soon, for the second time that day, Darin was barefoot. She removed her belt and tossed it around the trunk. It just reached with just enough space for her to grip the ends. Darin would have liked a little more room, but it would be alright. She started to grin. This may not be bad at all. Tossing the belt up to a little above her head she braced her feet a little way up the trunk and started her climb.

It was not an easy climb. She basically tossed the belt up while resting her weight on the balls of her feet. She would then hop a little further up the trunk. It gave her arms a workout, but if she could push a plow and swing a sickle she could and would do this. Darin slipped once about halfway up and then again towards the top. Each time she had a brief moment of panic. Then she recovered before continuing her adventure. At one point her circle of leaves fell off and she could only hope that someone caught it for her. She wasn’t sure how long it had taken but soon enough she was where the leaves meet the trunk. There were circular fruit Darin could only assume were coconuts.

She called down, “Hey Ridahne!” She carefully readjusted her grip, “How do I tell if the coconuts are ripe and ready for picking?” She careful pressed against the trunk to tie herself to it with the belt as she muttered to herself, “I really should have asked that before coming up here.”

I ended my post there because I'm not really sure what would happen when Darin got off the boat, so I left that for you. You can have them dock and disembark and go wherever you think they need to go next.

Also! HAPPY HOLIDAYS! I'm sending you lots of cheer.

The Tree of Astra (LadyAnnaLee and Blackfridayrule)

Darin put up with the formality as much as she could, but when Ridahne stood back up she wrapped her arms around the taller woman’s neck and let out a shriek of laughter. Darin had laughed a lot today, but she felt inclined to do so, especially after the events of this morning. She pulled away from the warrior to look at the now calmer waters. People may not get a full day’s work, but they would get some. Absently reached her hands up to undo the braid that was currently a mess after her dive into the salt water. In fact, she was coated in salt. The human could even taste it on her lips. She almost regretted the bath last night as she wasn’t likely to get one tonight. Ah well, she had survived worse than being coated in salt.

She worked on redoing her braid as she turned her attention back to the docks, “I believe there is more of the market to discover, not to mention the trees without branches, and I suspect there is much gossip and plenty of rumors taking flight in Tasen right about now.” Darin finished tying her hair back, “We should put some of them to rest. I doubt we will be able to do much about all of them though.” She gestured to the docks, “So Captain Rheisun! Please return us to the docks.”

As they journeyed back towards land Darin pulled her boots and leathers back on. On good thing about being The Seed-Bearer was that she didn’t have to wait to dry off. The Sky was more than happy to toss her around and in return she was dry in moments. Darin had to admit that The Sea had a point. It was nice to talk to Astra, to The Sky, The Sea, The Stone, without having to worry about the results of her conversations being spotted. It was nice to see what she was capable of asking for. It was nice to know that she didn’t have to worry about holding back. It was nice to play and to laugh and to have fun with Astra. Still, people have lives and she couldn’t be selfish enough to prevent them from trying to make a living.

The closer they got to the dock the more Darin could spot people either gathering at the water’s edge or watching warily. She wasn’t sure how many people spotted her being thrown out of the ocean or how many had seen the wind slow her descent, but it appeared to be enough that people had managed to figure out which boat she was on. Darin couldn’t see for sure, but she thought she the beginning of a crowd. She didn’t feel uneasy about the crowd, but she did feel apprehensive. The people weren’t hiding anything. She didn’t think the Red Hand was going to take advantage of the crowd to try something. It was just a little more than slightly unsettling to realize that all these people were gathered for her.

Darin found herself taking a step back form the boat’s railing where she had been leaning. She supposed that was the con of having people know that she was The Seed-Bearer. The last time she had been recognized was thanks to an Eluri prophecy and then the Eluri mostly understood that she didn’t want to be known and respect that. The last time she had been lauded in public was at The Farm and there they knew that she was really just one of them. Here? Darin wasn’t sure. Would any of the Azurei even realize what she meant when she said she was just a humble farmer? Was that even really true? How would they react to her once she left the [i]Sun among Rain[i]? Was she allowed to be nervous?

She whispered to Ridahne, “I find myself wanting to tell the captain to just moor his boat here, so I don’t have to deal with the fact that people know what I am.” She looked at her sister with her slight fear plain in her eyes, “What do I do? What do I say? I’m not really just a farmgirl anymore, am I? I am Ri'atal, Hope of Many, and I don’t even know what that means.”

Pixie Hollow at Night! A Disney Fairies RP. (Looking for a co-GM.)

Pixie Hollow, where all four seasons exist side by side, and the Fairies practice in order to prepare to bring the seasons to the mainland. In the Winter Woods Frost Fairies design dazzling blankets of frost while Snow Fairies carve snowflakes and no two are alike. In the Autumn Forests Leaf-Painting Fairies craft the perfect shade for maple leaves while Fast-Flying Fairies gather the fallen leaves into artful piles. In the Summer Glade Light Fairies help create beautiful rainbows and Animal Fairies help magnificent butterflies to fly. In the Spring Meadow Water Fairies practice calming rains and Garden Fairies plant the flowers that will soon bloom. Even in Tinker’s Nook the Tinker Fairies are hard at work invent all sorts of useful things and in the Pixie Dust Tree Dust Keeper Fairies make sure everyone receives their daily supply of Pixie Dust. All day, all across Pixie Hollow, Fairies are hard at work doing what they love to do best.

Then, when the sun begins its descent, when dusk paints the sky a beautiful twilight, and the day-time Fairies take their rest, play at the end of the day, and find their beds, the nocturnal Fairies come out to do their own jobs. There are not as many of them as there are diurnal fairies, but they still eagerly wake to do the jobs only those of their Talents can do properly. Starlight Fairies help the stars dazzle just right. Moonlight Fairies ensure that the moon follows the phases just right. Nocturnal-Animal Fairies teach owls to fly and racoons to scurry. Nocturnal-Garden Fairies prompt moonflowers, evening primrose, and morning glories to bloom at the correct time. Dusk Fairies paint the sky as the sun goes down while Dawn Fairies paint the sky as the sun wakes up. Even Darkness Fairies do their part to ensure that the shadows are were the are meant to be and that the world has time to rest. Flying on near silent wings and dressed in darker shades of blue, purple, grey and black the nocturnal Fairies flit about to give the diurnal Fairies rest that they sorely need. Working together they will do their part to keep Pixie Hollow running smoothly to make sure the seasons come to the Mainland on time.

Hello! LadyAnnaLee here! I hope the title and the little summary enough is a decent enough explanation. I figured I would post an interest check to see if there was any interest. A few things, I want to keep this to a small group for now. That being said I have no plot whatsoever! Right now, it’s just the idea of what if there were Nocturnal Fairies in Pixie Hollow. I think it would be a nice slice of life slash sandbox thing. I do know that I would like it to be mostly fluff. I mean it’s based on a series of children’s movies. I would like to keep this role-play PG or G. Drama is fine, but it needs to be problems that are fixable with a guaranteed happy ending. I know people can find it boring so if you aren’t looking for cute fluff with easy drama you might want to look elsewhere.

I have a list of seven Talents that I came up with and since I would like to play a character I am looking for, at most, six other players. I think we could make it work with at least three to four players. One of those would be co-GM to help me come up with basic plot points to help the players have something to work with. I have never GMed before, so I would love having help. The co-GM would get second pick for which Talent they want. I get first pick. I know I’m all kinds of greedy, but I don’t plan to be a main character. If I actually managed to get this role-play to last longer than three months, I might recruit more players with more Talents, but I don’t know yet.

Speaking of Talents, the list of Talents are Starlight, Moonlight, Dawn, Dusk, Nocturnal-Animal, Nocturnal-Garden, and Darkness. I claim Darkness. I have a character in mind that will basically play the role of Queen Clarion in the movies, not a main character, but the one that people report to and get guidance form. Like I said the co-GM would have second pick. I don’t really care what type of character you play, but I don’t need a cast full of emo-angsty Fairies. These are Fairies that love their Talents, love helping create the seasons, and love life and living. They don’t have to be overly cheerful and they can be grouchy most of the time, but just because they are Nocturnal Fairies doesn’t mean they are all gloomy all the time. I hope that makes sense. Other than that I would like it if the Dawn and Dusk Fairies were born of the same laugh, aka siblings, but that is completely up to the players.

As for gender, orientation, and appearance that is completely on you. Fairies are a pretty diverse group even among Talents. That being said, Fairies of the same Talent all dress in the same colors. Garden Fairies wear pink. Tinkers wear green. Animal Fairies were orange. You get the idea. Nocturnal Fairies were dark grey, almost black outfits, with dark purple, dark blue, dark red, or white accents, depending on personal preference and specific Talent. A Starlight Fairy might wear white accents while a Dusk Fairy would pick blue. Their wings glow silver instead of gold and are near silent when they fly. They speak in whispers and even have their own sign language.

I’m not looking for advance players or even people that can post every day. I would like at least 2 to 3 well written paragraphs, or 200-300 words if you are a word count person like me, at least once a week. This is supposed to be fun fluff filled writing and if it’s stressing you out it’s no good. If you can’t get a post one week, but you can tell people what’s up I’m not going to kick you out. If it becomes a habit I might because it wouldn’t be fair to the other players. I would like a group that can communicate and have fun with each other. It shouldn’t be that hard to get a small stable group going, but I’ve never done this before. What do I know? If you are interested in helping me GM or just playing post here in this thread. If I get enough interest, I’ll create a role-playing thread and a character sheet. Just a heads up I have personal issues with discord so I will not be making one for this role-play.

Anyways I look forward to seeing if I can get this to take flight! Talk to you soon!

LadyAnnaLee.
