We Six Heroes of GardenKeep Are.
[Beastly creatures to have traveled so far]
Genre: Adventure, Comedy, Medieval-ish-ness, Magicness


The Princess has been captured. Again. But nevermind that, more importantly her handmaiden has been captured, which is what has the castle GardenKeep, the central of the country Sac, which looks suspiciously like Minnesota, all in a bustle. Princesses can be replaced, one blonde simpering ninny is much the same as another, however the handmaiden is not your ordinary domestic servant.

Oh no.
Ohhhh no.

The Princess's Handmaiden is the Singer. The Keeper of the Songs. The Big Cheese. The Sniznit. The only person who knew the entire history of GardenKeep and the country it ruled.

Now, why was the Big Sniznit acting as the handmaiden to a Doopy Airhead? Well, for one, handmaidens are overlooked most of the time so no one was going to notice that this one just-so-happened to resembled the Big Cheese. Secondly, she liked cleaning. It was relaxing. Thirdly, being the Princess's handmaiden did afford that she kidnapped a lot, however the handmaiden was never hurt or killed, because then the Princess would turn into a Winey b***h and that was never fun to have around.

So, the King has called forth the smartest, the bravest, the cutest, the estest ests in the whole kingdom and beyond to save the Beloved Big Cheese and the Winey Bubblehead. Out of nineteen six have answered the call. The other thriteen were too busy to save yet another bubble-head dolt and were off doing...heroic...stuff.

You are one of those six (or their vassel, or pet, or something. I don't care.)
Who are you?
When were you born (no 'looks like' I need an age. That makes sense.]
What are you?
What are you the estest at?
Why are you answering the King?
What the hell do you look like? [link to pics or a very snazzy description. NO PICS FROM POPULAR ANIMES/MANGAS. NONE. I'll eat your face off.]
Where are you from?
How are you doing?

Treasures untold and adventures never before imagined await thee, oh Heros. ATTACK!

Ze Heros!
[PM me, it'll be magical.]
[All chars to make it to the end, AKA save the handmaiden and get back to the king get 3000 gold/fanart depending on how many of you there are.]

The Smartest

Who are you? Caecilia Zurhorst
When were you born? 25 Years Ago
What are you? "A brilliant and attractive, available, woman… or a necromancer and scientist, if you prefer to be boring."
What are you the estest at? "Why, I am the smartest woman in all the lands…"
Why are you answering the King? "You should be honored that I agreed to come, but if you must know, it was merely the tedium of life."
What the hell do you look like? "I, Caecilia Zurhorst of Sac, am the most beautiful woman in the world --- what do you mean I'm not gorgeous? I'm six foot, five inches little woman, I can crush you like a bug... wait, this is about me, not your insect-like features. As the little ant was saying, I'll admit I am pale... pale as death, one may say - but my measurements make up for that. Call me Aryan, if you want, but I'm much better, both intellectually and physically, then you are."
Where are you from? "Weren’t you listening to me? I am born and raised in the King’s lands… honestly…"
How are you doing? "Oh, do shove off. I don't see how any of this is your buisness..."

The Eduranestnessest. (most endurance)

Who are you? Pyro Amedaus
When were you born: I think twenty seven years ago. I'm fairly sure. Almost positive.
What are you: Well... mostly dragon. My ma raped a dragon. I had complicated childhood. I have WINGS. WHOOSH! I'm also a friend with fire. We met randomly, I fed it wood, it warmed me we had a magical relationship. Then the rain killed it. Then i found he lives in matches, all of them at once. Like Jesus. Oh wait.
What are you the estest at? Well, I have endurance up the wazoo. I can fly for days, stay awake for days, run for miles, but I'm not very fast. When I'm done though I crash like the Hiendburg.
Why are you answering the King: I want food. I'm hungry. I also am fond of gold. Very fond.
What the hell do you look like? Pyro, only imagine with more red.
Where are you from: Down south at the country edge, right where it meets the country that looks suspiciously like Iowa.
How are you doing?: I'm good, thanks. Kind of tired from the flight, Do you have any steak?


The Richest

Who are you? Dartanion Smith
What are you? Human, raised by dragons (it's a long story)
When were you born: Nineteen years ago, On a Tuesday. It was drizzling, and some smog.
The estest: the richest, but not because I try to be, it just kind of happen. Gold just sort of started crawling to my molten horde and jumped in like 'whoo part-eh!' Gold des whatever he wanted because he's nice to the poor Au, since he doesn't just pass it around like it's yesturday's use. he considers the gold feelings.
Why are you answering the King: He's giving a gold reward and he wants to save it. I have other friends too they're just not so shiney and needy and c'mon it can't even fight back.
What the hell do you like? Pretty much, i need to have the hair swish, because it's mandatory. Kind of a sandy blondish color hair, like not like the most attractive, because that would be the attractiest, but he's not ugly either. He's kind of like "hey I can blend in very easily" He's about 6 feet tall average build, uhhh realy likes the colors brown, green and flashy red scarves, but not WITH the color green. He likes white too. Yeah. he also has a cape that he uses to make flahsy entrances for no readily apaprent reason, he just likes flashy entrances. if I was a ninja I'd have the whole smoke bomb effect, only the power to kill people at fourty paces if it so please the GM ::bows::. And if I could it would still be for not readily apparent reason, I'd take the gold from somebody necklace and the stone in the middle causes them to hit their toe and they'd fall and hit their heads on some conviently placed rock. or bran muffin, 'cause those things can be really hard. Yeah.
Where are you from: A cave that's over the river and through the woods from here. Dragons have terrible directions. "Hang a right at the burning village and go from there."
How are you? I'm good, I have this sinus infection right now ::sniff: I'm...I'm very well, and yourself?

The Sanest

Who are you? Arlin Lockhart
When were you born About twenty-two years, six months, three days, four hours, thirty-seven minutes and fifty-eight-no, nine seconds ago. Would you like that in nano-seconds?
What are you? Lets see now...I've got two arms, two legs, a torso with a lovely set of mammary glands, a neck connecting to a head....Hmmm...I must be a duck! /sarcasm No, really, I'm human.
What are you the estest at? Why...why did I have to be born the sanest in this godforsaken land?! Whhhhhhhhhy?!
Why are you answering the King? Because my barmy mother made me.
What the hell do you look like? According to one of my stalkers, "Pleasantly plump hourglass figure, standing at 5'5" with bright green eyes and long black hair reaching her buttocks." I'm actually 5'5" and a half. And if you really need to know what I'm wearing right now, I'll punch your lights out, you perv.
Where are you from? Down the street and straight on till morning.
How are you doing? Wondering why god put me on this world...probably to suffer some horrible transgression in my past. I was probably a lawyer...
The Artsyestnessestifiedness (Emoest)

Who are you? Luna Iliir is my name in this world. Maybe you'll learn my other when you reach enlightenment.
When were you born? Time is a construct of society. (Seventeen years ago yesterday)
What are you? Faeyrie
What are you the estest at? Artsiest (emoest?) My scintillating artistic spirit sings forth with a siren song that will surely never be silenced!
Why are you answering the King? When the whispers of the weeping wind told me of his plight, I knew in my soul that I was fated to answer the call.
What the hell do you look like? this
Where are you from? The air, the water, the sweet Mother Earth. (Born three blocks from here in the charity hospice)
How are you doing? My lower chakras are out of alignment, but aside from that I'm alright.

The KING
User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show.Who is he? The King Georff.

When was he born? 47 years ago on a Sunday. It was rainy.

What is he? The King. Duh. Royalty is it's own race characterized by very stupid Princesses that grow into either wise and benevolent Queens or Cranky Old Harpies when they hit 35. The boys are rash, full of themselves and Charming until they get to be about 20 or so. Then they either grow up to be Blubbering Old Fools or Wise and Kind Rulers.

He is the estest at ruling all your sorry asses. And horses. Mules too.

He looks like any generic old guy with a crown and a nice long beard.

He was born and raised at castle GardenKeep.

He's doing a fine, mostly, save his kingdom is in MORTAL PERIL. But other than that everything's doing pretty good.

ZE RULES
[They aren't that scary, really, I promise.]


1.) I am the GM. I am God. I am both very mean and very benevolent.

1.5) I do not have to follow my own rules.

2.) I can be bribed. I can also be annoyed. See rule one.

3.) All Gaia rules apply. You break this, I report your apologetic donkey.

4.) If you are a moron, you will die. Don't be a moron.

5.) This is a Comedy, meaning that if you're being attacked by Gigantic Harpy Monsters and you randomly pull out some magical device to defeat them, and I think it's clever and/or creative, I'll let you do it. Once. Keep on your toes, I'm crafty.
5.4) This is a Comedy, but don't be completely ridculous. That isn't funny it's annoying. See rule one.

5.5) If you're clever, amusing and crafty AND logical life will turn out MUCH better for you than if you're...generic. On that note:

6.) NO VAMPIRES. If you're going to be a mythical beast you have to follow the very first rules of them. Meaning if you play a were it can change on the FULL MOON and dies from SILVER. If you make up a race it better have WEAKNESSES that make SENSE. Example: If your char is super strong it needs to eat. A lot. And sleep. A lot. Energy comes from somewhere people.

7.) If you say you use an element I expect the periodic table number, weight and abbreviation. You can control oxygen, but not water. Why? because water is made of oxygen and hydrogen. Duh.

8.) You can't control things, just try to convince them to do what you want. Maybe you're friends, but you can't control it. You want to be able to use fire? Great. Prove you're friends with the fire first.

9.) No sappy romance. You fall in love? Peachy. Don't let it distract you from the goal of this thing.

10.) Explosions make me happy. See rule one.

11.) Stealing things from popular animes makes me angry. See rule one.
11.5) Making pop culture references to things I like ( ::cough:: Firefly ::cough:: ) will get you far in this world. Note I said RERFERENCES.
Stealing is bad, homage is good. On that note...Relient K is a snazzy band wouldn't you say? ::hintHINT::

12.) If you sing a song you have to write it, meaning no popular tunes now, we're in a different universe, remember?

12.5) I reserve the right to base entire countries off the songs of a single band.

13.) Magic must make some sort of sense. You cannot break the rules of physics. Just bend them. Also magic is energy, that energy comes from somewhere. Either you, some sort of familiar, the world, or dead people depending. Make it make sense or no magic for you. See rule number 6.

14.) I am God. You are not. Ergo, no Godmodding or you die. I can and will use the nice dice things with the posts if I have to. Don't make me. Always give people the chance to react, but people who are reacting: you can't dodge everything, or react super fast until you're the fastest in the Kingdom. You're going to get hurt. You might even die. Deal with it.

And finally:

15.) dramallama You over-dramatize I llama-tize you. I'm very serious. Some drama is good, too much and you'll be a nice pack-animal.

Plot Thus Far
[Will be updated whenever I feel like it]

Backstory: See first post.
Day 1: Four party members have arrived at the castle, one looks to be a rather beautiful, if exceedingly cranky necromancer, another is a rather average looking creature who just roasted a rat with his breath, then a gluttonous dragon-type creature, and the other in a rather sketchy looking character who keeps trying to steal the candle sticks. We await two more.

Day 2: One more party member, a human who in turn yells at people, bemoans her past life, and shakes her head at the sheer insanity of GardenKeep. We await one more.

Day...uh...3: Final member has arrived, a rather out of it look farie who spent at least three minutes talking to a waterfall. The King has called you all the main Hall (hey it rhymes.) King has sent you out into the world. Members picked up Hero's Survival Pack 1.1 , Member have gotten Mission 1: Find a Guide.

*staring into the eyes of one of the statues that inevitably exist in the castle* Nope, nothing. *turning his head, apparently listening to a small pack on his back (a backpack perhapse)* That one? Okay, but it looks just like all the rest. I really don't think we'll find any there either... *stares into the eyes of another statue*
