Once upon a time...(closed)

[ff]

Before:
Name Gilda Lockhart
Age 18
Description

Personality
Mischievous, bubbly, more courage than wisdom, likes to play pranks or sneak into places she ought not. A bit of a tinkerer / hacker. Bisexual. Has a thing for sneaking into other people’s rooms, pantries, and beds, but choosy about finding which one’s just right.
Background

Gilda had a comfortable enough suburban childhood. Her father was a reformed college prankster and hacker who became a legitimate engineer (and rumoredly kept quite a bit of untraceable spoils from his hacking days, in the form of money or dirt on celebrities and public figures.) Her mother was a zoologist specializing in North American apex predators (she liked to joke her husband was one, and her most fascinating subject of study) like bears and wolves and mountain lions (oh my!)

Gilda was a straight A student, that and her borderline-flirtatious nature with some teachers caused authorities to look the other way when Gilda got into mischief. She had a bad habit of sneaking into places just for the heck of it - the school on weekends, the rooms and computers or friends and rivals, jacuzzis and wine cellars of the wealthiest kids’ houses, and so on.

She was likely chosen for this extra curricular lecture on folklore, with the lecturer’s hope that by truly engaging Gilda in academic pursuits, her natural smarts and ability to get good grades would win out over her juvenile delinquent streak.

After:
Name Goldilocks

Name Snow White
Age 18
Description {See photo}
Personality Snow White has retained a kind and compassionate personality despite all the betrayal and hurt she's been dealt, but that is not to say she has not learned a valuable lesson... be cautious before you trust someone absolutely, they may not be at all what they seem.

Intelligent and quick witted, Snow White has learned to be resourceful and when the situation calls for it, ruthless in a fight, although... still honorable.

Background
The story of Snow White was not what people believed it to be, it had been a ruse, a cruel trick played upon the fair sweet princess to gain control of her kingdom.

As it would turn out, the prince, Florian, that rescued and intended to marry Snow White was actually her stepmother's son from a previous marriage, his daring rescue set up in the even that his mother failed to kill her. One way or another, the kingdom would end up in the hands of their family, as was the mother and son thinking.

Soon before the wedding, the resourceful princess discovered the truth from the magic mirror formerly belonging to her stepmother and confronted her soon-to-be husband... he tried to deceive her at first, but Snow White was not hearing any of it, she knew the truth and there was no way she was going to marry him now.

Furious, Prince Florian tried to attack Snow White in efforts to silence her before she could remove him from this position after he'd already come so far... Utilizing self defense skills taught to her by the dwarves whom had protected her from her stepmother... Snow White managed to escape...

She didn't know what compelled her to do what she did what she did next... but this place, it held so much pain for her, it was full of pain, every room and corridor... her stepmother murdered her father in this castle, she endured years of neglect and abuse here, she almost married her treacherous stepbrother here.

That hurt most of all... she had been falling in love with Florian, but now... she knew it was all a lie, it had all been fabricated on his end in effort to get the throne. Well... let him have this castle of pain if he wanted it so much, she had to get away, she couldn't breath, she needed to go back... back to the forest... back to the dwarves... back home...

The dwarves proceeded to teach the princess even more in fighting, both defense and offense, they educated her in daggers and knives until she was just as good as they were... her performance enhanced by her higher speed capability than that of the dwarves.

As her stepbrother and former fiance would find out, Snow White was intelligent enough while still having majority of control over the castle still, to snatch her stepmother's magic mirror and take it with her when she left... she'd be damned before she'd leave such a powerful tool in Florian's hands.

Snow White looks awesome. Trying to marry a stepdaughter back to your own son to 'keep the throne in the family' makes sense for a wicked stepmother to try. Love the interpretation of the dwarves as self defense teachers...I'm imagining them as each having their own 'style'..Dopey's is kinda like drunken boxing and Grumpy's is like berserker rage, Bashful uses hiding and stealth, haha.

Got a little confused over the start of this paragraph but that could be because I'm reading in the middle of the night :) rest looks great though! :)

Oops, suppose to 'why' instead of 'what'. I'll fix it.

Before: Name Rebecca Davis
Age18
Description
Personality Becca is a bit of an introvert. Though she tries hard to make friends, she is not your typical popular girl. She is more interested in what happens in books than what happens in the outside world. Her clothes seem to match her personality, as Rebecca tends to wear darker colors...a stark contrast to her typically pale features.
Background Becca was from a broken family. Born to middle-class parents, the introverted and sometimes shy redhead never knew her father. After her father left, Becca's mother seemed to gain a distrust of everyone, straining the relationship with her daughter. This unhealthy home life left Becca unsure how to approach people, and has caused her to sometimes be the butt of jokes from more popular girls in her class.

*Extra*  out of all the students in the class why has yours been chosen for this extra curricular lecture?
Becca's teachers know how much she has a love for books. They told her about it, hoping that it will pique her interest and help her make new friends.

The before character must have either personal looks, or traits that related to there fail tail character, it could be something as simple as red hair- little red riding hood

After: Name Red Riding Hood
Description
*Extra* please either link a copy of the story your using or outline a breif description (this is just so I can make sure your fairy tail character follows the right track)

Hope the character is okay! I figured since there was a wolf, there would have to be a red riding hood!

Dibs!

[LamentingQuill]

Also, folks should know. Snow White will need to complete her happily ever after still, even if she is presently already in the fairy tale world. Let me know if there are any interested individuals wanting to hook up with the fairest of them all hehe.

[Cataclysmic Archangel]

Dibs!


... what?  The wolf has a healthy appetite.

Looking good, welcome.

[LamentingQuill]

Kinda thinking Robin Hood or Perhaps Captain Hook for Snow White... the original darker story by J.M. Barrie for Hook, not Disney's uber sugar coated version...  I don't know though, I'm open to suggestions about which fairy tale dude it should be should we gain anyone new interested ^.^

[Cataclysmic Archangel]

lol, Snow White would definitely not be into polygamy xD

She just needs convincing. Wink wink.

[BlueEyedBard]

Quick question: are our characters arriving the next morning after the whole glowing book event, or are we all arriving in the middle of the night?

[Cataclysmic Archangel]

I thought I read that it was midnight?  But I also was slightly distracted when I got started (hence today is a far better post than last night). 

[Levi]

So the glowing book happened at midnight the previous night, I think the class would be like 7pm the next evening? I think evening is much more dramatic then day time :)
