It's been many years since Alice visited Wonderland, but the only things that have changed are the faces and the resident dictator. Other than that, the ruler is still a spoiled tyrant and it is still hard to find decent help. A small resistance effort is gathering against the King of Spades, the new ruler, but this being Wonderland, no one can be serious long enough for anything to get organized.
On top of all this, portals have been popping up all over Wonderland and depositing unsuspecting Other-Worlders into Wonderland. Is this a coincidence or something more sinister?
....Eh, probably just a coincidence.
Or IS it? -Dramatic Music!-
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
When applying for this RP, you can either be someone that somehow found their way into Wonderland, (doesn't have to be a rabbit hole or a mirror. Get creative!) or a resident of Wonderland. Remember, this is Future Wonderland, so the characters from the original story aren't here (except Cheshire and the White Rabbit). Characters can however be based on original Wonderland characters or related to them in some fashion.
Please PM me your profile based on the skeleton provided in the next post.
I will be taking submissions for people wanting to be The White Rabbit and The Cheshire Cat after the first post. If you want to be Cheshire or Rabbit, I would like a small sample of your RPing skills as Cheshire and Rabbit are pretty big characters. PM me with the subject "I wanna be Cheshire!" or "I wanna be The White Rabbit!" with a brief sample of your RPing.
~Rules~
1. As always, try to be literate. Use commas as best you can, capitalize when you should, and write your words out completely. Also, please refrain from using asterisks, colons, or dashes when describing an action. My first post should give you all and idea of what I'm looking for. Please, learn by example.
3. When talking OOC, use the ever popular double bracket so we don't get confused.
2. Keep with the Gaia TOS because if you didn't, well you would get in trouble, wouldn't you?
3. When I say 'Slightly Random', I mean in relation to Wonderland. Weird things can happen, but keep in somewhat in the bounds of what would happen in Wonderland. This means no randomly storming the Kings palace and killing him. That would just ruin the plot, now wouldn't it?
4. Don't complain about being ignored if you don't make an effort to put yourself into the action and don't make it impossible for other people to include themselves into the action.
5. If you so wish, you can use different text colors for your RP characters...just make sure people can read it, mmkay?
(Colorful text makes things look more interesting!)

~Character Profiles~ ProfileUsername:
RP Alias: The Cheshire Cat
Appearance: 
History: The oldest person in Wonderland. He knows all that goes on and likes to play both sides of the field. Seems to be helping the resistance effort, but it's hard to tell with him.
Race: Magical Feline
Gender: Male
Personality: A tricky cat that loves to confuse. Is occasionally helpful, but he would rather tease and taunt than help. Chaotic neutral.
Other: His age is not known for sure, but he is pretty old. Lucky for him, it is easy for him to hide from Death. Coincidentally, Death thinks Cheshire is a bit of a jerk.
To apply to be this character, please refer to the purple text in the first post.Profile
Username:
RP Alias: The White Rabbit
Apperance: 
History: Contrary to popular belief, the White Rabbit is no coward. In fact, he is one of the most powerful beings in Wonderland. He is also the unwilling gofer to the royal family. It is unknown why he must do their bidding. Is he loyal to the royal family, or is he the true leader of the resistance? Only time will tell.
Race: Magical Rabbit
Gender: male
Personality: Quiet and rather stoic, but with a gentleman's charm. He is more straight-forward than most of the residents of Wonderland. He has a strict honor code. He's not too fond of the Cheshire Cat as they are complete opposites. Unfortunatly, he is always late.
Other: Is almost as old as Cheshire. Magic Rabbits live a long time. Got his gold watch as an unbirthday present from Cheshire. Rabbit is suspicious.
To apply to be this character, please refer to the purple text in the first post.
Profile
Username: The Midget
RP Alias: The King of Spades
Appearance: 
History: The King of Spades is the grandson of the Queen of Hearts. He came into power when he was about 15 and is almost a worse ruler than the Queen of Hearts was. Fortunately, he prefers to lock people in the dungeon than cut off their heads. What happens to the people in the dungeons, no one knows...
Race: Playing Card Royalty
Gender: Male
Personality: Selfish, rude, and a bit of a brat. To top it all off, he's also a bit emo and can't understand why no one likes him. He has a short temper and makes unrealistic demands of everyone. Luckily, he also has a short-term memory, so if people ignore his outragous demands, he usually forgets he even made them.
Other: 17 years old and alligence is to himself, obviously. Has sporatic moments of cruelness.Profile
Username: The Midget
RP Alias: Marie DuMer
Apperance: 
History: Marie is an average girl that fell into a koi pond and found herself in Wonderland. She wants to find a way home, but due to the fact this is Wonderland, no one is being helpful at all.
Race: Human
Gender: Female
Personality: Marie is logical and level-headed (everything that Wonderland is NOT). Lucky, she can also adapt well. Wonderland does frustrate from time to time, but she makes the best of it. Doesn't like attention being called to the fact that she is quite short.
Other:Though she doesn't appear to be so, Marie is actually 18. Marie is just under 5ft and it is a fine height, thank you very much.

Marie sat on a large toadstool and hung her head, wearily sighing. How the heck did a simple slip into a koi pond turn into this?
One moment all she was worried about was her rather light colored shirt getting wet, the next she was smack dab in the middle of a meadow. A meadow with PURPLE GRASS! Since WHEN was grass purple? Being the level-headed person she was, she decided that she was in the middle of a dream...until she tripped over a rock and hit her head.
Since pain was not common in the dream world, Marie had to re-evaluate her situation...at least, that's what she tried to do before the rock she had tripped on started yelling at her to watch where she was going.
So after running for a good twenty minutes, Marie felt it would be a good idea to ask around. Maybe someone around here could tell her where she was and what the heck was going on...
That is if they didn't all ask her to recite something instead!
"How the heck is a poem supposed to help me understand what's going on here?" Marie groaned, pulling at her hair. "What is wrong with these people!?"
"It's simple." A velvety voice called from a tree. "They are all mad. We are all mad here."
Marie jumped a bit. She hadn't expected an answer.
"Who are you? And why are you in a tree?" Marie peered into the tree, trying to find the source of the voice.
There was a rustling in the tree before a thump was heard at its base. Foot prints appeared as if by magic before stopping in front of Marie. Suddenly, what appeared to be a rather demonic looking young man with a tail materialized out of thin air.
"Holy-!" Marie spazzed, falling off of her toadstool in surprise and injuring her head for the second time.
"I am the Cheshire Cat." He snickered, leaning on the toad stool and regarding Marie from her awkward position. "And as for why I was in the tree....well, I suppose you can gather the reason from my last two answers."
"...So you were in the tree because you're crazy and your a cat?" Marie looked up at Cheshire, dazed from the fall.
"Not just any cat, The Cheshire Cat. The King of cats." Cheshire puffed out his chest proudly and twitched his tail.
"I thought that was the lion." Marie replied as she sat up, rubbing the new lump on her head and wincing.
"That's just useless propaganda." Cheshire scoffed and crossed his arms. "You know what that ridiculous mane is for? Compensation."
"...Right. So where am I?" Marie stood up and dusted herself off.
"Why, you're in Wonderland, of course." Cheshire smirked, gesturing grandly about.
"Ah, of course." Marie felt that this Cheshire would be no more help than any of the other people she's met so far.
Meanwhile, in the dark Palace in the center of the black rose Labrynth, home of the most powerful and cruel tyrant in Wonderland....
"Ugh, this place is sooooo borning." The King of Spades moaned as he sat upside-down in his throne, his face rather flushed from the blood running to it..
"Sir, you have 20 jugglers, 15 fire-eaters, 30 jesters, and 50 dancers." The White Rabbit sighed and pressed his thumb and forfinger against his eyes.
"But I've seen them all already!" The King pouted at Rabbit, still upside down. "There's never anything interesting around here....not like that time when Aunty Hearts was in power and that Other-Worlder showed up..."
'Oh no....' The White Rabbit didn't like the thoughtful look on the King's face. He just knew what was coming next.
"RABBIT!" The King bolted upright, nearly falling out of his chair. There was a slightly unbalanced look in his eye. Insert a long-suffering sigh from the poor White Rabbit.
"I want you to find me an Other-Worlder! I want you to find me one and bring them here! Right away!"
'I knew it...' Rabbit shook his head. "And how do you suppose I do this...?"
"How the hell am I supposed to know?" The King rolled his eyes and waved a dismissive hand. "Just do it before I have you fed to the Jabberwock."
Rabbit sighed. It was no use to argue. All he could do now is leave and hope he found an Other-Worlder or that the king forgot his asinine request.
"As you wish, m'lord." Rabbit bowed before hopping towards the door, pausing to grab his umbrella. He WAS a practical rabbit, you know.
