The wyld hunt (dark fairytale interest check)

Name: Aladdin
Tale: A thousand and one nights...

Aladdin was Born Al Had Den.  Son of the leader that called himself simply the Prince of Thieves.  He didn’t want to follow in his father’s footsteps and ended up as a soldier in the court of one particular sultan.  He had been thrown have defied one particular captain of the guard having been caught consorting with the Sultan’s daughter.  His punishment should have been death but he ran, it was in his nature, he was still considered a street rat.  His skills with weapons were uncanny to give his knowledge of them from his time with his father and as a soldier.

His running took him to a cave, an undiscovered cave.  The cave held within it a vast treasure, the likes of which he had never seen.  Upon the wall was the description, ‘Touch only the lamp.’  He thought it was crazy, but as he walked down the steps with the torch in hand, the place was lit up completely but at the top of the next flight of steps was a golden lamp.

He was taken aback by the sight and ran up to it.  It glowed in the light.  It was during this time that he had a curious pet monkey named Abu.  It was his journeys with Abu that got him into the most trouble.  It was during this visit where Abu didn’t make the trek from the cave.  Aladdin grabbed the lamp and rubbed it…Abu grabbed a ruby that was bigger than him.  The cave collapsed spitting out Aladdin and the lamp. 

Aladdin cleaned off the lamp and a lovely shapely Djinn emerged and granted him one wish and he wished for the power to able to rule and shape his own destiny beyond what his father or anyone in his family would be able to do.  “I want to be like you, without the confined quarters.”

  The Djinn was impressed with his intellect and with a mischievous grin granted his request.  He had the powers of Djinn on a much smaller scale, not that of granting wishes as they went with the space, but to have that power contained within his body.  To control every part of himself so that he could see and behold the life of his entire generation unfold before him.  She failed to tell him how long.  She also gave him a ring to remind him of his wish how he could have used it for anything and he used it for himself.

An Aladdin without a history with Jafar.  Nicely done.

[Gannameade]

We can create a history still that is not a problem.  ;D

[Captain Whitebread]

This works for me.  There is no need to try and figure out a backstory.  This puts them in a situation where they can meet for the first time without preconceived notions.  They can learn to hate each other on merit alone.

[Gannameade]

That will work too.  I am game.

[SidheLady]

Do I hear the beginnings of a M/M romance....?

[Captain Whitebread]

You do not.

There will be no romance involved at all....

[Gannameade]

Ahhh No! 

I don't even like that guy.  No matter how cool or helpful or even Awesome GM he is most of the time.   ;D

[Captain Whitebread]

Ah, I see you are familiar with the rape game.  Such a proficient victim....

Aladdin's butt is safe from Jafar.  Doens't mean he won't try to sell it to someone else.

[Gannameade]

Yeah that would be some sale.   >:)

I'm super sorry I haven't been able to get a post up for this, but my muse has run off with all of my energy and I've fallen ill, as well - just a cold, but it kind of sucker punched me so I'm trying to get out from under that. Goldie will be around, I'm just not sure when she will make her entrance, if that's OK with Sidhe!

[Captain Whitebread]

RL always comes first

Feel better soon.

[SidheLady]

Okay, that's fine!

thanks for letting me know!

Hello all :) Just checking the pulse of this game to see how things are going.

I've been out of the loop for a few weeks with work, so I'm mildly relieved that the story didn't take off without me lol

[SidheLady]

If people are still interested, I will pick us up!

Sorry, I got kinda busy with homelife kicking my ass

[Gannameade]
