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:

Accepted! I really love the diversity I'm seeing in all of these characters. However, as I mentioned above in this post, everyone starts out in Destiny Beach without any recollection of where they lived beforehand. He could've lived on Destiny Beach, been a member of the special forces and moved back, but he had to start off where everyone else had. Other than that, it looks good.

Okay, that works. Sorry about the slip up. Guess my brain went into autopilot for putting Sid's backstory together.

.

Okay. Two things. 1: I am considering who to use for my last slot and was wondering if it was alright with you, Mystics Apprentice, and you, Sabre Lily, if I used one of the Type-0 FBI Agents? I'm still a ways from making my final decision, but I wanted to see if they were options. 2: (this next question is more about the acquisition of random knowledge rather then anything helpful for the rp. It is aimed at you, Mystic, but if you lack time/interest to answer it, then don't worry about it.) So, are altered Final Fantasy characters in KH considered separate from their original counter parts? Examples being Leon vs Squall (not too much different) and the fairy Gullwings vs original Gullwings (a more major difference).

For the FBI, I don't mind. Just remember Queen's the tech girl, and King is weapons.

Hmm, that's certainly not a bad idea at all, one that I think I like more than my idea for Sora (and I've seen you use Luna as well, nice rounded character).  I am wondering, though, if it would be a bit unfair to others that I've rejected OCs to.  I like this thought, perhaps better than Sora because, well, first off I have no one to play him yet, and it gives a really cool flair.  Let me muse on this and see what others think of the idea.

 

Awesome. : D  Now, do you think I should make Kievan/Kefka own an antique shop or keep him as a science teacher?  I couldn't decide on that one, but I was trying to get an adult into the school and science seems something Kefka would enjoy messing with.

 

 

Yup, they sure do!  Locke from FFVI sells copies of his game all the time. : P

 

I think it would be best if Kievan work at the school, since we kind of need a teacher there lol. But once magic comes back into play his hobby with antiques would also probably become more relevant too.

you know who would be a good teacher?AURON from FFX xD

And Vexen LOLAnd LarxeneI vote Auron to be a teacher. He'd be so great.

Larxene as a teacher? I'd be afraid.
  • Author

Geez, I would hate to be the misfortunate kid of falling into Ms. Larxene's hands! : P  That woman can be ruthless!  As for Vexen, I always thought he would make the good teacher sort, perhaps because of Even's love for science.

 

So, a change of plans on my end might mean that I can get the RP going by Saturday or Sunday.  I have everyone's sign-up sheet so far with the exception of Noel's player as well as Aqua7KH (it's okay, take your time : ) ).  Unfortunately I still don't know the status of Zack yet, but, if all goes as I'm thinking, he's likely taken by Noel's player.  Is there anyone else that would interest you before I get the RP going?  I'm going to integrate everyone's characters into the plot before we begin (so everyone has a significant role and can contribute to the story), which is why I'm hoping I'll get the majority of players in before the RP starts.  I may even close sign-ups after this, I'm not sure.

Oh because I was going to create a OC savior either based off my FF OC Luna that could be somewhat the savior, and the daughter of two final fantasy characters. Her look was going to be Jennifer Morrison sort've because I usually vision Luna voice by her.

After much consideration, I think I may have to decline Luna.  I feel that it would be discrimination on my part if I accepted her and rejected everyone else's OCs.  True, Luna would be *perfect* for this role and I like how you are so familiar with Once Upon a Time and could make it work, but I have to be fair.  I hope you understand. : )  Unless no one minds this? Because the idea is so cool!

It's no problem.  I might've not been very clear about this initially anyway but rather implied it.  Regarding the FBI agents, I was originally thinking that they will be NPCs that we can sort of manipulate for our use to the plot and not be actual characters with substantial roles.  You're welcome to use one, however, though they're a bit more of an addition rather than actual main characters.  Also, I was going to make all Final Fantasy characters their original selves without their Kingdom Hearts counterparts.  Perhaps we could combine both into one if they're similar enough (like make KH Sephiroth and original Sephiroth all in the same) but I intend to only have one of the same person in the RP.  Does that make sense?  So the Gullwings would probably be their original selves since it's hard if they were both, but Leon/Squall could probably have memories from both stories and be one whole person using both.

Auron would be the most badass English teacher.

 

Also, I'm assuming the town has a kind of everybody knows everybody kind of thing going on since it is so small?

We need Seymour for school board leader xD

English teacher Auron.

Between a school board  leader of Seymour and teachers Larxene, Vexen, and Kefka, what kind of school would this be?!  For some reason this makes me think of the demon school from Disgaea 3.

 

Also, I'll jot you down for Auron.

The School of Hard Knocks, of course. No wonder Xion is suicidal...abusive Vanitas boyfriend, villain run high school? Yeah, makes sense...

Two more great teachers.

 

Wakka for sports teacher xD.

 

And Cid for history teacher xD

Yuna for music teacher?

I still have one slot left, so I'll fill in for what you guys need.

Yuna for music teacher?

And Kefka for arts teacher LOL.

What I really need is a Sora, as he's the savior who is the key to breaking the curse and the only one not from another world.  You certainly can take whatever you choose, of course, but this is what I'm looking for most. ; )

 

And Kefka for arts teacher LOL.

Nah, Kefka's already a science teacher.  He's fascinated with magic and magicite, so I thought it would suit him well.  An art teacher, though, haha!  Seeing his crazy self I could actually understand it.

I could Rp as Sora if need be.

 

As long as I got Auron, im good.

 

So who would be an art teacher? Friggin ultimecia?

It's entirely up to you.  He's a crucial part of the plot, but I can just integrate him into the plot as I'm doing with Ultimecia, and probably Ven.  If you think he'd be fun that's great, but if you'd rather not no worries.  I reserved Auron for you as well.

 

Hmm, the art teacher . . . . *muses*  I'll let you guys decide on that one.  Personally I'm not too heavily focused on the school.  Ultimecia is actually the main--or at least seemingly the main--antagonist here, so she has rather twisted motives rooted outside of Destiny Beach.

TT-TT You mean I don't get to play the role of the troll main villain?

*seemingly* the main antagonist. ; )  Originally I wasn't going to make Vanitas be a "villain" per se, but rather have his own agenda.  If you'd like I can PM you the details on what I had in mind for him and we can work on tweaking it a bit to suit you. : )  Just beware for spoilers.

Alright, that might help me to push Vanitas in a certain direction because, at the moment, all I have planned is him wrecking everyone's lives. xD

Teach English, tutor some students, be a badass.

Cool. I must admit, between asking and now, my mind has wandered away from using one of the FBI characters, though it's nice to know they are an option.And yes, your explanation of handling the KH versions of Final Fantasy characters makes sense. Like I said before, I asked to satisfy curiosity rather then seeking a constructive ruling for a character. Thanks for answering.
