Note: This is the sign-up and discussion thread for Once Upon a Fantasy.  The actual RP is located here: http://kh13.com/forum/topic/86738-once-upon-a-fantasy-rp/

We took a short hiatus this summer and will be starting up again with a slightly fresh start.  Events have already taken place, but I'll happily provide a recap for those who would like to join back up again.  During our hiatus we have a lot of the same cast, but have also lost a couple of very special players in like.  If you're interested in joining we'd love to have you!  Please review the rules and post your character sheet.  Thanks!

 

This RP was inspired by Kingdom Hearts, Final Fantasy, and Once Upon a Time.  After Vanitas enacted a curse, all characters--villains and heroes alike--were sent to the real world where they lived new lives, without even a single memory of their past selves.

 

It all started when the heroes were trying to prevent Ultimecia from casting this curse, leading them to break into her castle . . . .

 

“Is this it?” Lightning bent over and examined a scroll tied with a red ribbon on a pedestal in Ultimecia’s tower.  The wind roared around them, blowing the curtains rapidly, the dim gray sunset casting whatever little light existed within the room.  Locke walked over to her, taking the tiny scroll from her hands and examining it.  Eventually he nodded.  “It must be.  Yen Sid told us that it would be here.”

 

“But what do we do with it?” Lightning inquired.  But before Locke could answer, the doors to the tower burst open, and in strode Ultimecia.  The tall woman’s eyes casually swept the room, meeting the two heroes’ gazes unflinchingly.

 

“Well, well,” she said, drawling, “it looks like the savior and the treasure hunter failed their friends after all.  You didn’t expect me already, did you?”

 

Both Lightning and Locke looked at each other.  The scroll remained in Locke’s fist, but there was no use hiding it: Ultimecia already knew it was there.  The sorceress sent Lightning flying into a wall with an aerial spell as she proceeded on to the poor thief.  “Now then, I will give you options.” She looked mercilessly into his eyes, her cold ones bearing down into his.  “Either you can give me the scroll without a fight, or I could kill that one first”--she smiled ruefully--”whichever calls out to you most.”

 

“Think again, lady!”

 

Locke let out a rattled breath of relief, looking over Ultimecia’s shoulder.  She whipped around to see Ventus, grinning widely, the mini scroll clenched in his fist.  The woman rose, turning to Ventus stonily.  “Be careful with that, boy.  You’re meddling in very dark magic that you don’t know how to control.”

 

“Well, lucky for you”--the boy’s grin widened, and for a moment his eyes flickered golden--”I actually do know how to use this dark magic.  And unlike these dufuses, I’m not afraid to use it.”

 

Suddenly everyone’s heart sank within the room.  Lightning slowly rose, groaning as she extended a hand toward their ally.  “Ven--”

 

The boy laughed, a merciless cold laugh that sent chills down her spine.  “Guess what, Light?  I’m not Ven.  I  never was.  It was all too easy to use you guys to get me into this place, and now, now I have what I want.”  He tore off the red ribbon and unrolled the scroll, his eyes skimming it longingly.  “Now I finally get to go home.”

 

“Not how you think!” Ultimecia shouted.  “It’s darker than you could even imagine.  It will take you to that world, yes, but you will lose everything to do it.”

 

Again the boy smiled, shaking his head.  “That’s the point: I don’t have anything to lose.”

 

With that, he unrolled the scroll and blew on it, sending its words off the page and into the room.  A cloud of smoke infiltrated the air, and for a moment all was perfectly still.

 

But only for a brief moment, before chaos struck.  The winds picked up, almost to the point that it caused the Ven-look-alike to lose his balance.  It threw Locke off his feet and knocked Lightning back into the wall, now unconscious.

 

“What’s happening?!”  Locke demanded, glaring from the boy to Ultimecia.  The sorceress clutched her chest, eyes downcast and breathing hard.

 

“Everything . . . will be stripped of us.  Our homes, our memories.  Everything that matters.”

 

Before another word could be uttered, a clap of thunder roared, and this is where you are, and where you’ve been for as long as you can remember:

 

Destiny Beach.

 

You live in a city located alongside the coast of Florida.  You’ve been here for as long as you can remember, and you cannot remember a thing beforehand.  However, you don’t even notice that you don’t remember, nor do you care.  Everything is how it’s always been, and magic is nothing more than a fantasy.  Some of you are now doctors, shopkeepers, secretaries, teachers, and some of you still can’t find your place in the world.  Everything stayed this way for a time, until the boy who could unlock the secret--and the spell--arrives on Destiny Beach.

 

For a few rules:

 

1.) No Godmodding (this includes controlling or killing another person's character)

2.) No speedhacking (don't land blows on another person's character until they respond, et cetera)

3.) Follow the RP rules and guidelines stickied to this forum

4.) No duplicate characters (meaning two people can’t be Sora, et cetera)

5.) Pairings and romance are fine, but no yaoi or yuri, please

6.) Keep everything PG-13.  I can understand some swearing and violence every now and again, but no explicit scenes, gore, sexual themes, or language that needs this @#$%! done to it. : P

7.) Please be sure that your posts contain a minimum of four lines.  I won’t bite anyone if they do it once in a while, but short posts are difficult to work with and it means more work for the other players communicating with that player.

 

Now, for the characters: you may choose up to three Final Fantasy or Kingdom Hearts characters, provided that they play a significant role in the series (like, well, don’t choose the unnamed bartender) and that they aren’t already taken.  As character roles fill I will be listing them in this main thread here, so please be sure to refer to it before creating any character sheets. There will be some special roles for certain characters that I will outline and guide through the RP (Sora, Vanitas, Lightning, Ventus, Locke, and Ultimecia, to name a few), but beyond that it’s pretty free reign.  Please fill out the character sheet below:

Alright. Let's see how interesting I can make them.Character: Snow VilliersOriginal Game: Final Fantasy XIIIDestiny Beach name: Johnny FrostAppearance: http://img3.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20111018040407/finalfantasy/images/e/ea/Snow_XIII-2_Render.pngCurrent occupation: Carpenter/MMA FighterDestiny Beach backstory and personality: Johnny Frost started out as a deputy of Destiny Beach, but was fired due to his disregard of laws to do what he thought was right and lack of respect for authority he found stupid, not including his old boss, the sheriff. He took up carpentry, starting as a builder, then moving into more of furniture builder. Over the last three years, Johnny has started competing in MMA fights, and been training during his free time. Johnny Frost can be loud and obnoxious at time, but he is loyal and genuinely cares for people. While friendly and easy going, do not mistake those tendencies for an inability to take offense, or will to protect himself and others.Character: SiceOriginal Game: Final Fantasy Type-0Destiny Beach name: Susan SykesAppearance: http://finalfantasynews.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/finalfantasytype0hd_videos_set2-400x300.pngCurrent occupation: FBI Agent traineeDestiny Beach backstory and personality: After what feels like an eternity, Susan Sykes got placed in the FBI office in her home town of Destiny Beach as a probationary agent. While she still toys with the idea of just quitting this whole law enforcement gig to go to culinary school, she stays the course to be with her friends and to maybe do some good in this world.Gruff and tomboyish, Susan generally goes for the "tough love" way of encouraging people. While blunt and foul-mouthed at times, she does care, though she doesn't generally express it in usual ways.

Omfg Snow's name is Johnny Frost.

Alright, Snow!  How awesome!  Now we just need a Serah and we'll be good to go. : P  Both characters are accepted.

Thanks. If no one else does it, I may have to make Serah later on.

Blame my naming method. Even that twisty mess of a method turns out obvious jokes.Hey, Yuffe! You good with a little friendly rivalry between Snow and Tifa?

You know me too well riku, of course I would. I wanted it the second I saw he was an MMA fighter.

Wonder if I should have Auron go to sleep, or go somewhere to eat, and think about what happened, Im thinking more on the latter.

Tempted to make Serah but I have no idea honestly how to fit her in.

Sweet! I was figuring a mostly even win/loss ratio between Johnny and Krissa, with Krissa having a lead. I figured Krisa has better technique and precision, while Johnny has size and mass.

Tempted to make Serah but I have no idea honestly how to fit her in.

well, she was a teacher at the beginning of XIII-2. Not sure what she'd be teacher of, but that might fit in.

Y'know, I hadn't thought too much about the name at first, but it was really quite clever!  Regarding Serah, that sounds awesome, unless Sabre would prefer to take her?  I would be interested, but I just have way too many characters at the moment.  (I need Oblivion to come back! : P)

That sounds good.  He could sleep, and then head over to the school.  It's about to be in session again. ; )

Riku made a good point about Serah.  She could indeed be a teacher at the school, and perhaps she too could be a seeress similar to Yeul.  That could get interesting, actually, especially if she gets a glimpse of what's to come and it helps her realize that she's not--and no one else--is home.

I got a quick question; did we skip to night? And if so where should Aqua and Roxas be right now? I was waiting for Disgust to post so I can include Aqua's response to the phone call (or if Disgust you were waiting for me I could post first)

Well, unfortunately, it seems that we're kind of all in different timelines.  I didn't want it to happen, but because people are in some stages of the story it kind of did.  The majority of characters are in the next day (the morning after the Hearts 4 Souls meeting), though it seems that Aqua and Sora haven't done anything since that last night.  Yuffie and Zidane are kind of torn between dusk and dawn, and I think Krissa and the bar might be, too.  If you'd like to skip ahead to the morning that would be fine, or if not we could finish up that night and catch up with everyone else.

 

For Roxas: I think he's currently in Riku's room.  Maybe Vanitas could be egging the house or something and Roxas gets fed up? : P

Sorry for the delay, I'll post tomorrow.

 

As for the timeline and the phone call, me and Aqua could have flashbacks of the phone call as well as main posts starting in the morning? I've done something similar before and it works out alright.

I probably will make Serah tomorrow when I get my computer.

 

Just sayin.

Awww and I was looking forward to le fun time with Sora D:I don't mind skipping to the next morning, but is it okay if you tell me what Terra was to say? I just wanted to know what Terra was going to do about Roxas being missing.Also, me likey Roxas getting fed up at Vanitas being an asshat.

Should have broke a limb, that'd teach him...to come after you first once the curse is broken :P

"Get off my doorstep, I didn't touch your shit." She slammed the door in the man's face.

I don't know why but I found this line to be utterly priceless.

I was going to have Terrence pull an all-nighter driving around looking for him, probably pulling over and falling asleep towards the end of the night. In any case, he was going to say something along the lines of "Oh, dang. I'll stay up and look for him. In the morning I'll ask his friends, Aeria and Flint, see if they know anything."

Perfect! Perhaps in the morning Aqua could ask Terra how it went and offer to help (she'll have to drag Sora along though

Alright, just posted. You could have her call him now and ask where he is.

I just wanted to give everyone a heads up that I'm going to be out of town this week starting tomorrow morning.  I'm going to try to post today and when I get back on Friday, but I apologize if I'm rather absent until.  I'll try to keep up as much as I can, however.

Perfect.Also, quick question; is Xion's birthday today?

Sabre would have to confirm this one, but I guess it would be.  That would explain why Lightning has the day off.
