FAIRY TALE AU PLANNING POST

[taxonmods]

~*~Once upon a time there were three mods, and they decided that their game could do with more once upon a time. "Needs more dragons!" said the first. "Needs more trolls!" said the second. "Needs more horrors!" said the third. And so they set about briefly changing the city of Taxon to the kingdom of Taxonia, where there would be dragons and trolls

We love them, give them to us :D

When trees start talking...

Briar is going to be a tree of some sort. I'm combining Ents, the monarch Willow from Briar's canon (because the willow trees believe there is a Queen Willow), and Grandmother Willow from Disney's Pocahontas by way of inspiration. I'm leaning toward making him a pine tree.

Anyway! He will be a tree available for conversation/advice/possible sarcasm, and he will probably be like a half-dormant Ent in terms of movement ability; he'll be mostly stationary, unless something really big prompts him to move. Feel free to poke me to have him encounter your characters and/or if you want him as part of a character's fairy tale backstory!

I'd like it if he and DG knew each other in some way, as I feel the magical creatures of fairy tale Taxon - she's going to be the Queen of the Fairy Hunt - should stick together.

Little Red(headed) Riding Hood. With hair like this I can't really help it. I'm also thinking he can do some sort of Hansel and Gretel thing with his brother, though the Cain and Abel thing would be AWESOME for angst. WHAT DO YOU THINK?

For Dwight, he needs to be some sort of beast. Either a wolf in the forest, or a Beauty and the Beast type thing.. Suggestions?

[tin_hearts]

I could definitely see Dwight as a spin on the Beautiful Person/Not So Beautiful Person/Beast/Twisted Horrors type. I mean, there's so many other stories about Horrendously Ugly/Beastly People that don't necessarily find a magical cure by way of romance and such. The Hunchback of Notre Dame, Phantom of the Opera, and I know there are even more, but I can't seem to remember their names right now. >_>

Oops sorry for stealing your Wolf idea for Mick. ^^;;;;

[a_pretty_fire]

A Hansel and Gretel type thing would be awesome, because there is a creepy witch with a gingerbread cottage just waiting for someone to push her in the oven.

Rumpelstiltglitch in the house. I'm...going to be drawing heavily on the ABC series Once Upon A Time's version, with the fixation on making deals and bargains and then adding in Acquiring And Hoarding And Trading People's Valuables for magical favors. He'll have an even wilder version of his original hair (so he'll actually look like his icons BUT WORSE) and curly-toed shoes and tight leather trousers and much-described outerwear. SO: if you wanna make a deal with him, or have it established that he's made a deal in the past and now owns a Valuable - such as a stylish fedora - hit me up so we can hash out shenanigans!

For fun and games, all of his deals become null and void if you can tell him his name. HARD MODE: it's not Rumpelstiltsglitchkin. EVEN HARDER MODE: he will be going by Glitch still, so...yeah, his REAL name is required. Yes, I do want this to happen by the end of the event. For purposes.

Is he going to stomp himself a fiery hole in the floor? :D?

[justaddmarbles]

Welp, knowing me [ REDACTED REDACTED REDACTED ].

However you HAVE totally by coincidence reminded me of a very important detail which needs to get edited into the post /flies

[gotcouplings]

Well, I live to remind.

[gotcouplings]

Still in the AAAAAAA WHAT AM I DOING STAGES, but I'm kind of leaning toward something Rapunzel-esque for Kaylee.

Also debating Thumbelina for Sandry, because obviously we need size extremes up in here.

UP FOR PLANNING AND PLOTTING and coming up with new ideas. Because that's how we roll around Taxon.

[magic_weaver]

Okay so someone mentioned the girl from The Six Swans for Sandry. I am probably going to go with this one for her. Who needs talking.
