What if there was a realm in which your shadow was your opposite? What if there was a place where if you stepped on a crack, you might break your back? What if there was a world where children’s tales could come alive? What if, the things made up of the imagination actually existed in another place?
Well, it does. This is the world of the Dystopia Utopia. This world is so unexplainable to even its own people that it was given a name just as unexplainable. However, this land has fallen once more into dark times as it does every two thousand years, only this time no hero’s are there to fight against the evil. The people have lost their knowledge of connecting with the magic within themselves, now tis only the children of young age that can perform simple tasks. No longer is diversity welcomed outside of one’s own special group. The land needs hero’s, but not ordinary hero’s… what they need is those who can bring redemption.
THE ALMIGHTY RULES
1. No Godmoding
2. No Taking over Others’ Characters!
3. No Cybering!
4. Romance is lovely, but keep it PG-13 (or 12…)
5. Be creative! This is a land of faerie tales mixed with reality!
6. No Perfect Characters!
7. Respect fellow role-players, follow guild rules, follow ToS and…
8. PM ME YOUR PROFILES WITH THE TITLE: CHOATIC FORMAT *and if you read everything including the rules you will also put a ninja or pirate smiley of your choice. ^^
9. I am the Narrator of this story, When you start I will tell you where your character will find a portal, and where they land in this new world so that everyone can have a chance of interacting with other characters without worrying so much about not being able to get there!

Okay, so in this land there are few exceptions for creatures and certain faerie tales I would rather not have a parallel in this role-play. Below I will list the creatures ALLOWED!:
Gryphon’s: They live in the cliff areas by the mountains and seacoasts of Disutopia Utopia.
Basilisks: There are two kinds, one intelligent, walks upright on two legs (more lizard shaped then snake) and the other is the sort you find in Harry Potter, they live on the islands, their kindred (lizard type) lives in the mountain passes.
Nymphs: Live in the lack lands,
Dryads: They live in the wood lands, their native enemy is the lamia.
Leviathan: Basically, the giantish like dinosaur that terrizes the sea, though some can be sort of playful.
Naga: originated in the same swamp land as the Thunderbirds, most commonly found in rare fresh drinking pool areas of those swamps, they also know how to traverse through the swamps.
Thunderbirds: Birds that live in the clouds, mainly those that follow thunderstorms and actually create the thunder within, their home is in the swamps though where they live in peace.
H:arpies: live in mountainous cliffs
Sphinx: they live in the desert.
Lamia: They live in the hills and forests, they are enemies with dryads.
Cerberus’: their everywhere pets.
Simurg A jewel-like bird whose iridescent feathers had powers of healing. They live in the tropical islands.
Phox: pronounced fox, a tiger stripped common size is a lynx they are feline creature, coat comes in a mirage of colors and the eyes are more noticeably slit coming only in green and gold metallic eyes. The feline pet.
Poxie(yes the name has probably been used before): a hurrock (flying horse with evil claws as hooves) turned small with dragonfly wings(live in plains)
Now, don’t go all ballistic on parallel faerie tales, don’t suddenly add in “Oh look there’s a pale almost dead looking girl in a glass case! And why are there dwarves by her side?” Sort of thing, all right? If the faerie tales appear its going to be in an old resemblance. “A tower stood against the backdrop of woods, something dangled form its side. It looked abandoned yet familiar as if it had come out of the child’s story Repunzel.” You don’t have to mention the name; I just did that as an example. So, have at it! Explanation:
Ever since this world began shadows have always been the opposites of the people they shadow. There has always been two kinds of magic, one kind simple called Magic, the other called Shadowmagic where the user takes control of another’s shadow, thus taking control of them, however this magic is very difficult to master and not often used. Each person was given a different ability in magic, some can fly, and others can throw rocks at them without touching the rocks! Some can talk to trees and get them to do things, others… well they have to do things the hard way or perhaps they’ll be able to use water to take them where ever they wish to go!
Oh, and by the way you don’t start out in this world.

Character name: What’s your characters name?

Summery of Character: A summery of your character is basically like a description of the characters personality or where they fit in, the personality isn’t being used BECAUSE this roleplay is bent on introducing that as the character flows, no drastic changes in the characters personality though after like, the third post, that’s just lame.

“Please fasten all seat belts and prepare to land,” came the familiar sweet voice from over head Josie’s chair. Looking up and around she noticed several people begin to wake up, outside her window she could see thousands of tiny city lights shinning brightly as the plane dived closer to the ground. Unnerved at the height and speed of which they were landing Josie grasped the seats armchairs tightly. Just let me land save, just let me land save… I do not want to burn to death on an airplane! Thought Josie as the plane came to a thud, thud, thud thudding stop on airport pavement. She finally opened her eyes when the plane came to a complete stop. “Please remove all luggage from the luggage compartments and exit from the plane in an orderly fashion!” The sweet voice called again, repeating it once more in several different languages. Josie glared at the speaker. “I hate overly bright people,” she muttered before getting caught up in the flow of humans going through the airplane’s small doors.
“Excuse me lady, but I wouldn’t touch my bag if I where you, it isn’t the safest thing in the world to be touching.” Josie said cheerfully to the over powdered snitch trying to sneak in a few good steals. The women gave her a puzzled look, took in Josie’s expression of warning, and turned around leaving Josie sighing while attempting to drag her overloaded suitcase off the unloading cargo bay. “Right, this is Japan, of course no one here speaks English!” Frustrated she managed just enough energy to drag the suitcase unceremoniously onto the floor where it thudded uncomfortable close to her foot. Wearily she grabbed her other bag, made sure she had a firm hold on the suitcase, and headed towards a bathroom stall. I smell like old baby food and bad airconditioning! Not like that’s really a bad smell… but I pretty sure any realiable person in Japan wouldn’t want to come near me, and that could be a problem… Her thought’s twirled around in wonder of what she was to do next, after all this wasn’t America where you knew what was acceptable and what wasn’t. A bathroom door was found, but it had an odd symbol on it as if it didn’t really belong there. Frowning Josie rubbed her hand over it tentatively, wondering if this was in actuality a bathroom. The symbol glowed, then flashed causing Josie to blink her eyes confusedly…
The airport’s busy style kept on going, but there was one exception, a young teenage girl who had moments before been looking for a bathroom was no longer inside the airport; She was no longer anywhere on that world.
~0~0~0~
“Deary, I am so sorry for you loss,” An old women with a cane stood standing before a young man dressed in black patchy clothes. Nodding in response Jasper ushered yet another person from the funeral grounds. The day had been tiring beyond belief. Never before had he had to deal with all of his mothers’ relations, friends, and local pub goers in one day combined. If only one of them hadn’t come in drunk, the funeral might not have been so bad… that was until the coffin was lowered into the ground with such finality that Jasper could no longer hold back the tears. That was when everything became worse. First, all the elderly had to hug him, as if it wasn’t enough that they came only to share gossip freely now in front of Marie, his mother. Then, to add on to this two of Marie’s close friends got into an argument that ended with one bloody nose, one black eye, and Jasper threatening to shoot the lot of them if the didn’t leave. But, at last the funeral was over. No more pretend mourners left. No more false cheer givers trying to get Jasper back onto the path of “educational use”.
No, now it was final, his mother was dead and he had nothing much left to live for.
Jasper carelessly threw a white flower onto his mother’s grave before walking away. Easily he put on his mask that could fool the world into thinking he was all right today, easily fool them all, even himself. “Jerry, I think I’ll let you bring things back into normality, I’m gonna go catch a subway train to take me back to work.” Jasper put on his black jacket, grimacing at the clash it made with his “howtie-towtie” funeral clothes. “Maybe I’ll stop by the house first…” he murmured ignoring Jerry’s calls asking him if he’d rather get a ride there. “Naw thanks, I’ll be fine!” Jasper waved good-bye, and then stepped into an ally short cut towards the subway. However, Jasper didn’t come back out.

Cody held onto the strap of her backpack as she went up the escalator, and looked down at her feet. Good thing im at the mall..i need some new shoes... she tried to look past the lady in front of her to see what stores where directly in front of the escalator....this was goin to be tricky. Cody wasnt a criminal, she just couldnt afford most things so she....borrowed...them and well, they never really seemed to get returned. The stores in front of the escalator turned out to be a perfume store and a Steve and Barry's, and, squeezed in right near the wall, was a payless.

Beside the Steve and Barry's store a new store appeared under contruction. An orange sign read: "Warning: Under Construction, beware of possible falling items." However the windows of the shop seemed perfectly fine, showing right inside the shut down store. That's when the light caught a glimmer of something shimmering in its case. On a closer look it appeared to be a silver necklace with diamond enlaid in the middle surrounded by a sun shaped ornament. Next to the necklace something green glowed in the dark depths of the store, it was a portal to another realm, generally ignored by most of the human habitants within the mall.

Cody's attention was suddenly turned to a shimmering necklace. She cautiosly went to the window of the store and looked inside. There was no one there. She went it, trying to seem as inconspicuous as possible, and once inside, she quickly flipped over the warning sign. She went to the necklace, and looking though the store window, she quietly swept it into her bag. Sge turned to exit the store and tripped over a yellow cord. She flung her arms out to stop the fall, but she continued to fall and fall, into a pool of shimmering green light.

Josie screamed as the cold air hit her lungs, she was falling from a very far distance into a large haystack. With a heavy thud Josie landed, much bruised onto the haystack, groaning as she did so. The hay poked her body mercilessly, sticking in all the wrong places as she got up, clutching her bag like a lifesaver. “Where the heck am I?” She whispered, gazing about wide-eyed. Instead of an airport bathroom she was in a countryside setting, the sky was a strange light violet color and the clouds where a whisky blue. How odd, Was the first thought that crossed her mind, soon followed by another as in the distance a three headed dog could be seen herding sheep into wooden pens. At least that was slightly normal, besides the three-headed dog part. “I wonder-“ She began before shutting her mouth as another portal opened, this time dropping yet another victim in a haystack.
Jasper closed his eyes tightly, wishing he had something to clutch before landing, amazingly softly on a ruff surface. Opening his eyes hesitantly, and a bit fearfully he paused to observe that instead of in a dirty ally way, he happened to be in grasslands, or shepherding lands, since he could hear the bleating of sheep somewhere in the distance. Unable to say anything he sat there as he was, gazing in half amusement and half frenzied bewilderment until he spotted a girl sitting on a haystack just ten feet away. “Hola,” Jasper said, grinning, leaning back on his elbows only to flip unexpectedly off the haystack and onto the ground on his back. Grimacing in pain he glanced up to see the girl laughing, until she too landed on the ground with a thud, on her side, now it was his turn to hide a grin. Falling of haystacks after entering an ally, who would have guessed? The girl came over, brushing herself off in an attempt to be rid of the hay before extending a hand, helping James to his feet and introducing her-self. “I’m Josie,” The girl said in a soft pleasant voice.
“I’m Jasper,” he said, trying not to feel awkward. “So you live… here…” He trailed off, wondering where “here” was exactly. She rolled her eyes then grimaced. “No, I fell through a—something or other just like you.” Jasper sighed, hoping he’d be able to get back with a little help from the locals, when he noticed another portal open glowing bright green. “Hello what’s this?” He asked himself, beginning to walk over. It seems another would join their party, terrific.
((Your character will be placed in the same field as them, so good luck on the next post. ^^ ))

Cory walked down to a tree on a hill. In front of the tree stood a grave stone. Cory looked down at the grave and placed some flowers at its base. Cory walked to the tree. He and his father had carved the word 'Together as a family once more.' Cory looked at the words and a tear fell from his face. Cory sat there for a moment and stood to say one last goodbye to his father and leave to the navy recruiters and ship out the next day.

Cody fell, unable to scream, to the ground expecting it to hurt like hell. However she managed to twist on to her back so that she was looking up at the discolored sky. She landed with a thud on to somthing hard and soft...adn slightly squishy at the same time. She stood up and noticed what she had landed on. A boy who looked about the same age as her, give or take a few years, lay face down on the ground. "Oh my gosh!" Cody cried, pulling him up off the dirt "I am so sorry!" She looked at him, scared that he would yell or hit her.

Jasper groaned in pain. The air escaped from his lungs causing him to gag while panicking. What the heck had just landed on him? He looked as best he could in his awkward position towards the figure lying on top of him. It was a girl. He glowered, great, yet again another girl. “Get off me!” He managed at last as the air finally reentered his lungs. His shout ended up being a half bellow instead of a controlled scream. Using his hands he wrestled the girl’s body away from his then rolled over so his face was towards the sky. The fall had probably broken one of his ribs; he ached so much he couldn’t tell what was unharmed and what still remained intact. “What in the name of all things good made me deserve this?” He muttered, releasing angry energy as his face became clouded before he took a deep calming breath, blew it out, and got up, offering his hand to the girl. “Sorry, you surprised me is all, my name is Jasper, Jasper Livernstine.”
Josie jumped back, squealing a strangled “eep” as she did so. Someone had just fallen out of the sky! It was like the Wizard of Oz all over again! The wicked witch was crushed by the falling house and… no, she was getting a head of herself, this was no house and Jasper was no witch. She started to laugh highly amused. “Wow, I believe that’s the BEST performance I’ve seen for sky diving in a very long time,” She said grinning, not able to hold in how funny it all looked. She had little pity for Jasper, but obviously the girl wasn’t expecting kind treatment. However Jasper beat her to the introductions making her go last. She smiled ruefully at him and extended her own hand smiling warmly. “Josephina Reynolod.” Josie said before becoming distant again, dropping back once introductions where over, well save for the obvious question as to who the girl was.
Cory found as he walked through the graveyard that an angel’s face appeared to be glowing but not from the setting sun. The light was green, and the tomb stone beneath it was also glowing green throwing off a very unholy light in the peaceful grave yard. Yet somehow this green light was alluring, it held a strange promise for adventure, hope, and a life better than the present one. That and the angel’s face looked beckoningly towards him as if imploring him to step forward. The wind itself whispered, go on, give it a try…
