I was thinking the Hunter, Puss in Boots... I guess I've always found depictions of the prince charmings to be rather... blase. Or the Pied Piper! Don't think he's a Grimm tale, but still. A charming rogue of some kind. Or maybe I could Captain Hammer it. I know there's a tale in here in a few places (looking through a story list for the Grimm tales) about a tricky man who becomes a king or a prince by ... well, trickery. And I imagine that would be the kind of doofus who would kiss a passed out chick in a coffin...


Or... maybe Prince Charming is actually the same Prince Charming and he just happens to be a lothario.... Make the princess fall in love, marry into the family, drain the coffers and move on. Would take a special lady to make him change his ways, that's for sure.

I don't know about that, Prince Florian (son of the evil queen and Snow White's stepbrother. It's explained in Snow's profile ^.^) is still looking for Snow after she got away from him. Though who knows, maybe Snow White made that made big an impression.

I'm not sure that'd fit the "happy ending" you were looking for, though? I read it and got the distinct impression he was a momma's boy. But I did read really quickly, so I'll go back and have a look.

Edit: Well, that would at least be an interesting character. Not sure there would be much in the way of Happy Ending, but I'm willing to give it a shot.

Oh no, I didn't mean for him to be Snow's happy ending. Snow White is paired up with Velaestrian's Robin Hood.

Oh good, good good.

Okay, so....

What about then, Florian has some misgivings about his mother, and tends to clash with Snow when he finds her, but she always gets away and over time it leaves him wondering why he's endlessly pursuing her especially if his mother already has control of the kingdom? Could be he's sort of her mother's minion by default. Could be if he were to come in consistent contact with the right person, that person might have the ability to convince him to flip on his mom.

His mother is dead.

Uhm... hi, y'all. Dunno why I didn't see this days ago. You were still in need of male characters, right?

Also... are we aware we have two wolves?


Erm, from two different stories, though.

Hiya, I see that you've been having a chat with a few of the other writers, but I just thought I would chime in, we are still at this time recruiting, I would say by Friday I would like to see a profile if you are interested in going us, theses guys post fast! :) as to characters I only referred to Grimm as a base line. I wanted to keep to darker stories then the more happy every just naturally turns our alright. Would be really interesting to see puss in boots type character, I even mentioned to death note about about having an Alice in wonderland character! So don't be feel restricted by just looking at grim tales :)

Ah, I didn't see anything in her profile about his mother being dead. I'm thinking I'm going to not play that, as it seems like stepping into a family history that I'm missing half the info on.

The Puss in Boots character, though! I'm not sure if I'll actually make him a man-cat, or if he'll really be any kind of cat in actuality at all... I'm still trying to figure out how that'll go. Mulling it!

I am tempted. Bit my skills of writing a male character are limited.

Cataclysmic Archangel

The BBW that I'm playing is from Little Red Riding Hood, as listed in the character sheet.  And someone is playing Red, but I have no idea if that means we're 'paired' up... the last time I played in a game where characters got paired for their Happily Ever After the game didn't last more than a month because everyone was already bored.

I'm also not sure if that immediately places me as a villain who's doomed to die, but... what the hell.

That's ok, I've not even tried writing as a male yet. I'm not going to turn you away if you would prefer to take on a female character, it's just we have quite a few :)

Okay thanks Levi! I still may try my hand at a male just gotta figure out who. Time to break out my copy of grims tales

Fury Aphrodisia

Mother-F#$@$%$ found him!



Before:
Name Felix de los Botas
Age 19
Description ((Totally appropriate to read his dialogue in a Banderas accent))
Personality Outgoing, charming and suave, Felix is forever stuck in flirting mode. It's difficult to tell when he's genuinely trying to charm or simply being warm and cheeky. Known to try to soften the resolve of teachers, administrators, parents and any other adult into whom he comes in contact. Similarly, he is known to use that charisma to arbitrate between his peers, influence those around him and especially to gain the attention of the females in his vicinity. While a lot of flowery language spills rapidly from his mouth, a quick with with a sharp tip is hidden among the rosy words for those keen enough to notice.

Any who happen to inspire the loyalty of Felix tend to have great fortune in the gifts he gives and recieves from others. For whatever reason, his charm leads those around him to bestow gifts and he has no compunctions about passing them off to whomever he believes will appreciate them most. This has made him respectably notable amongst his peers and instructors alike.

However, rarely if ever is the young man at odds with anyone, preferring to believe that the world around him is all part of one, big adventure.

Background The foreign exchange program is always an opportunity, so thought the spanish transfer. There was such opportunity to be found! Felix jumped at the chance to be part of exploring a new world. His curiosity could not be contained to a single school, a single town, a single continent! Felix grew up as a ward of the government, having fallen prey to an epidemic in his very young childhood. He barely remembers his parents, who sent him away for his own protection long before he could fall ill alongside them. Instead of letting this dampen his spirits, however, he remembers their act of love and tries to convey that to the world beyond their reach.
At ten, he was sent to a boarding school where he excelled, earning (and sometimes finding) himself greater opportunities along the way. With a great love of exploration and the thirsty mind that begs for new ways to ask questions and new answers to discover, it wasn't long before the trail of his fortunes led him to the adventure of a lifetime!

After:
Name Puss in Boots

Description (As varies from initial state) Unfortunately, the tale of Puss in Boots has been slightly exaggerated. As a feline, Puss was relatively unremarkable, save his gift for speech. He insisted on a pair of boots and managed to acquire them, beginning him on a long journey of discovery with the newfound powers of pursuasion. He modeled himself after the lives of men and over time, shed many of his feline qualities. However, these traits still make themselves known from time to time. Perhaps when he has need of balance, he will find himself with a tail. An exaggerated sense of smell and low-light vision, agility and quick reflexes, improved hearing... whatever the danger, the excitement, the embarrassment or the strain brings out in him at the moment. Aptly, he earned the moniker Puss in Boots to demonstrate that he was as though a cat, walking upright like a man. Ah, cultural embellishment!

But it is the resourcefulness of the cat which has served Puss the best, with those to whom he owes his loyalty in constant amazement at the feats of influence and accomplishment that might have otherwise been thought impossible. It's even said that he once managed to secure a royal bride for the poor miller's son who owns him! Great fortune can be found in his wake, proving that determination really can lead you to the life you want to live.

So long as you're willing to pay the price.



Everyone's favourite swashbuckling feline is at it again!

Is there a time limit? I'd prefer to see how posting goes for awhile before posting a bio.

Unless of course, if it'll be permitted, folks could play good or bad aligned characters existing already in the world to assist or hinder the new arrivals.

Fury Aphrodisia

I'm actually really excited to play Felix, now. I had been going back and forth between him and the Riding Hood Huntsman, but I'm glad I settled on this one. It'll be fun to play him.


Also, he'd like to see Gilda in a cheerleading uniform, also.
