NAHIM
Everyone before had seemed to see him as some scary monster with that sword in his hand, and when he had tried to cut down the door it had gotten worse.
Now he had let his sword dangle limp from its usual place on his belt. He had set his helmet beside himself on the floor, resigned to a little corner. His red eyes focused on nothing in particular. He wished Nora was here.
Who was he kidding? Even if she was here by his side, he could never dance like these strange people. He was a Realn and only knew how to dance formally for a Realn, and the funny upbeat dances that everyone knew. All was so different.
He wished had his violin, so at least he could play that.
No, these strangers would neither understand nor know the tunes he could play.
Nahim brought his knee up to his chin and wrapped his arms around it. ‘Why am I even here?’

October 16, 2023 at 10:11 pm #159182lol. A RP is short for role play.

Kari
A bang from the basement drew Kari’s attention to the basement door. What could that noise be? A gunshot? Her stomach twisted into a knot, and as she looked around the room, she realized Ottoline was missing, and come to think of it, so was that new girl. Alarm bells rang in Kari’s mind. What if the girl had dragged Ottoline away and shot her?
Before Kari could decide whether to investigate or enlist the others, footsteps clattered up the stairs, and Hedieh emerged with Ottoline beside her. Ottoline was no longer in her gown; she had returned to the clothes she wore when she first met.
“Ottoline!” Kari called out. “Are you okay? I heard a bang and thought maybe it was a gunshot. And what happened to your gown?”
“I’m fine,” Ottoline replied. “I was just taking a nap. All the excitement wore me out, and Hedieh found me down there. She accidentally banged the door, that’s probably what you heard.”
“That’s a relief,” Kari said. “I thought someone got hurt.”

October 17, 2023 at 9:01 am #159205Thanks, I’ll be brainstorming. Do you mind if it’s medieval themed? Cuz I’ve got a bright idea for that one.

October 17, 2023 at 9:06 am #159207By the way, I’ve retired Nahim from this RP, it’s not going anywhere with him.
"You need French Toast."
October 17, 2023 at 10:44 am #159210October 17, 2023 at 1:32 pm #159251The new RP idea:
There once was a great king who had a deep thirst for knowledge. It was such a deep thirst that it is said he never felt like he had ever gathered enough and spent his time mostly in the library of the Palace. It was because of this that the king, spurred by the words of his greatest advisor, sent out an edict into all of his lands,
To all Persons, Creatures, and Outlaws,
By decree of His Majesty, all are to prepare for a great festival like nothing ever performed before to be celebrated in front of the Palace grounds from the sunrise of the first day of the third month to the sunset of the seventh day. All subjects of His Majesty may attend no matter class, race, or age.
And so began a stir among the people for the greatest celebration of all time. And as the party would begin, two hundred ‘spies of knowledge’ would be sent to gather every bit of information from the crowd, from folk remedies to the making of new weapons. One hundred scribes would work at the Palace writing every bit that the spies would bring.
But the King would not be appeased with only the knowledge of his people, on the first day of the celebration portals and vortexes were opened by magic into other worlds, and soon peoples from other times and other places walked among the crowd. With pleasure, the King celebrated with peoples from other worlds and gained more knowledge. And the king was very pleased.
What do you think?
I also have another idea along the medieval/king line:
The Dragons pillage the Country of Lillen. Where once was peace, now there is war and fire. By the advise of his great and magical queen, the king has sent a plea for help into other worlds, into other times. Some the Queen pulled by way of a magical vortex into the land of Lillen without their consent or knowledge of the purpose of their summons. Some came by own free will. Now strangers wander Lillen, meeting eventually in the castle before the king and his Queen. While the folk of Lillen have no ability to fight with their frail bodies like that of a lily petal, these strangers from other worlds and times have the strength to save this fragile world.
Which one do you like best?
I personally like the last one best, but it’s not as inclusive as the first.
"You need French Toast."
October 17, 2023 at 1:50 pm #159254I haven’t ever done RP things, but the second one looks pretty cool! If people want to do that one, there’s a chance I might join. The scenario with dragons is pretty similar to one of my projects, so some of my characters from that one would be fun to see there, as they already have a lot of experience with dragons. Most RPs I’ve seen people do seem to be more of people just talking, so having the characters be on some sort of quest or something would be cool, because they’d still get to interact, but it would add another dimension to it.
it’s not as inclusive as the first.
I think it would be funny to see characters in this situation who are just normal people with no idea what they are supposed to do. The natives of this world could expect everyone to be super tough and then they are confused when some of them are just random people with no special powers or combat training.
Anyway, for all you RP people, don’t let my opinion influence you. I won’t promise that I’ll join if you do that one, but it’s possible.

October 17, 2023 at 3:10 pm #159272Oh, Rae, I meant just the next POV for the current RP! But that’s fine, it would be fun to do a new one!
We could have it so the characters at the “party” get teleported to the world via the house’s magical powers. Lol. I know that sounds stupid…but I kind of don’t want to start over, I think it would be fun if the story continues, just in the different world. And the house could be the vortex the Queen uses to pull them into the world!
I like this idea!
GRCR, what do you think?

LEFSE FOREVER!!!!!! <333October 17, 2023 at 3:20 pm #159275Cool! Sounds good! Continuing the story in the different world would be awesome.
(I’m pretty much fine with whatever.)
(However, I don’t know if I’d want to continue using Lane… I might change my character out, unless ya’ll don’t mind me adding a second character…)
