FORBIDDEN GROVES


You know this place, you always have. It was your home, it is your home, and yet, they forbid you from entering. We gave you your life. We gave you everything but you walk away from us. Very well...it is your children who will suffer...your children who will enter out forbidden groves...and floursih with the life that you cannot. Live little ones. Live knowing that, now you have left, you will die...

"These were the words spoken long ago by the trees of Capavean Forest. You may wonder how trees can speak...when we have told you they cannot. I and your parents were foolish then. We allowed what was unreal to become reality, and what was story to become truth. However on a bright morning in July we soon realized our folly and left the groves. But...our fears grew when we soo learned our folly to be the truth...that our minds had fueled the old magic in the forest...that we had created a monster. Thusly, the groves were forbidden. And that is why we keep you so near, that is why I must hold onto you so tight Titanya, because I fear losing you."

Titanya scowled, but the other children went wide eyes with awe. Each of them was bound to each other by a bracelet with a rope, that connected to Titanya then to her mother who was only a few inches away. She hated this...and so...she plotted.

Characters


I want only one character from each of you. They must be between the age of fiften and nineteen. No alternate species, only humans for now. Here is the form:

Name:
Age:
Hair:
Eyes:
Complection:
Height:
Personality:


You all have lived in the town of Capavean for your entire lives. Most of you are friends so if you want to create a back profile with someone else I encourage it. I want no power play. This role play will be under my control just until I get you where I want you. I apologize if this sounds mean...but this is an experiment. I chose you all because you are the best at what you do. The era for this role play is around 23rd century. I do not care how to dress, but there is NO technology. It is a reverted society. You are highly intelligent...but not technologically so.

Characters


Name: Titanya
Age: 17
Hair: Fiery Red, waist length and curly.
Eyes: Sultry Green,
Complexion: Pale
Height: 5'9"
Personality: Titanya appears to be a very melancholy girl, however, this is only her mask. Titanya is brilliant, she will sometimes reveal this by spouting nonsense about something once called 'science' and how it made the Capavean Forest, then disappeared. She knows tales and stories of inhuman creatures that once dwelled around the village. She is caculative, strong minded and defiant.


Name: Hanna Luthrvan
Age: 18
Hair: Black
Eyes: Brown-black
Complexion: Fair
Height: 5'7"
Personality: Spunky, outgoing, and generally cheerful, Hanna's bubbly exterior hides heartache and sorrow. Her happy demeanor is not entirely a facade, but when down in the dumps, Hanna hides her tears and conceals her pain. She knows well that she's only bottling her emotions, but Hanna claims to do this to keep from driving her friends away. Friends, she has in bundles - her naturally vivacious personality draws people to her. However, her closest friends know better than to be fooled by a too-happy exterior, and have learned pry even when she pushes them away "for their sake."
Sarcastic, but with a huge heart, Hanna has a great sense of humor and takes pleasure in cheesy jokes. She enjoys looking at the bright side of life; her friends hate to see Hanna sad.
More often than not, Hanna will be clad in pants and a light-weight shirt and, weather permitting, she'll sport sandals instead of closed-toe shoes. She generally ties her pure black hair back into a knot or a tail, but when she wears it down, Hanna's hair falls mid-back.


Name: Nikeaia
Age: 16
Hair: Platinum-blond, bordering on a white when the light hits it. Is usually held in a topknot, but when it's down it goes to mid-back and is wavy.
Eyes: Dark-blue, slightly heavy-lidded
Complexion: Somewhat tanned, some freckles on her cheeks
Height: 5'5"
Personality: Friendly, maybe a bit too trusting. She's generally seen as a sweet-heart, making sure others are ok before herself.


Name: Daniel Shrum
Age: 19
Hair: Light brown
Eyes: Green
Complexion: Light tan
Height: 5'8"
Personality: Extroverted with a satirical sense of humor. Though he is sarcastic in just about everything he says, it's all in jokes and fun and can usually cheer people up.


Name: Marcus
Age: 19
Hair: None
Eyes: Deep Blue
Complection: Pale
Height: 6'0"
Personality: Mostly dull and despressed. Does alot of the work in the Village but is mostly very shy. Keeps to himself most of the time. Only leaves his Shack if there's work to be done.


Name: Rystika
Age: 19
Hair: Darkest blue, black in less lit settings which she is more commonly found in
Eyes: Blue-Green of the sea under the setting moon with the most delicate slant
Complection: Smooth, pale skin, just short of unhealthily pale
Height: 5'10"
Personality: A creature of the night, Rystika revels in an aura of shadows and secrecy, very rarely appearing outside of her home before the sun sets bloody crimson. In public she is quiet, but with a weight to it, always having a complex view on things which she rarely shares freely,usually choosing her words carefully and those she speaks then to even more. Her friends are usually more the people who can stand her presence more than those who seek it out, but anyone who allows themselves and who she also allows to get close to her finds that she is an immensely learned girl who values loyalty and trust very highly. In private she reads, striving for knowledge that is known to few or even none. Physically, shes curvy but rarely wears tight clothing, preferring to mask her body in varying clothings, almost exclusively accompanied by a massive black cloak that can cover her more than fully, except the hood leaving her lips uncovered. She is dexterous and stealthy in her gait, adept at sneaking up on people, one of the fe.w activities she does not have a reason for.


name: Katra
age: 16 years old
hair:
dark brown with hints of black (like reverse highlights); medium in volume; falls straight to about mid-bck
eyes: forest green
complexion: fair
height/build: 5'1" tall, slender/petite
personality: Keeps to herself. She is quiet and reserved - rarely speaks. Few have heard her voice and even fewer consider her a friend.


((Any characters placed in black will be NPCs.))

Titanya waited upon the stump at the center of the square. It was half past midnight and they were all late. She had given them instructions, shown them how to escape from their homes and meet with her. All were friends...people she hoped shared the same visions of freedom as she did. Some were younger than others...but each had a potential that remained hidden. Her dark eyes flickered upwards to gaze upon the full moon. It was a beautiful night...but she would rather see it through the eyes of the forest than on the short, fat stump upon which she was posted. "Do the grackles sing in your forests Selene? Do the trees call to your pale perfection? How I would like for the old tales to be true..."

Daniel landed on the ground just outside his window. He quickly scrambled to his feet and peered back in listening to see if anyone heard him. Content that he was clear, Daniel ran off in the direction Titanya had told them to meet. He tried to stay in the shadows which was difficult in the moonlight. When he aproached the square he saw Titanya sitting in the middle stump. So much for sneaking around, he thought as he stepped into the moonlight and walked toward her direction.

Nikeaia finished scrambling out of her room window and landed on the ground below her. Her blue eyes looked back at her family house with a bit of shame. She'd never snuck out before, if her parents found out...oh, the trouble she'd be in. But, Titanya was a dear friend.

She looked around, rather nervous at the fact that she had just done something so unlike her, and worried that someone would jump out and just take her back to her room. With that thought lingering on her mind, she made a break away from her house and towards the stump that they were all told to meet at.

From the shadows on the edge of the square slithered the form of a lithe young woman. Hanna had slipped stealthily from her home, with the aid of an unused attic window and a handy pipe. She'd swiftly crossed the field that separated her neighborhood from the square, curiosity fueling her steps. Hanna wondered what Titanya had up her sleeve - instructing her friends on sneaking out of their homes to do... what, exactly?

Titanya had talked of "escape," as if their homes were a prison. The younger girl had given no other clue to what this late-night rendezvous would entail, but the group she'd called together were all friends - though Hanna knew some better than the others.

Interest boiling down every nerve, Hanna slid from the shadows into the center, and saw Titanya already sitting on the stump. She also saw Daniel emerging from the other direction; lifting her arm, Hanna waved to announce her presence, and jogged forward.

Titanya glanced around her, familiar sounds of foot steps drawing her mind away from the moon. She smiled. Good, they had not forgotten. She watched as each began to sneak from the shadows of the square and into the court yard. There was Hanna, Nikeaia, and she believed she saw Daniel just a bit further. Her eyes sparkled. It was beginning.

Daniel was the first to step into the courtyard but the furthest from the stump. He noticed another person walking towards the stump and they had raised their hand. He quickened his pace slightly and recognized the newcomer as Hanna. A smile crossed his face, seems all his friends would be here for...whatever it was that Titanya had planned for them.

"Titanya! Sorry I'm late." Hanna smiled as as flopped onto the grass, leaning her back against the stump Titanya was currently using as a seat. Hanna normally made it a point to arrive fashionably early, but her parents had stayed up longer than she'd expected. "My 'rents were up late for some bizarre reason; couldn't sneak out until midnight."

She had reached the stump first, but Daniel was already half-way across the square. Glancing around, Hanna noticed a missing member of their little circle. "Where's Nikeaia?"

Nikeaia slowly approached the group, her blue, heavy-lidded eyes looking around the square. They landed on the three and she made her way over.

"Sorry if I'm late..." she muttered. "I didn't want my parents finding out so I had to be really quiet." She looked between the three of them. It always seemed like she was tired, but only in facial appearance. "What did yu want to talk to us about, Titanya?"
PostPosted: Wed Jul 25, 2007 9:31 pm


Titanya rustled Hanna's hair, smiled at Daniel and cocked her head to the side when Nikeaia asked her question. "It is pecuilar that we are not given freedom until our twenty-first borthday...and then we are wed and tethered down again. No true freeodm is established and I have grown tired of it. So..." She stood, giving a flourishing whirl to face them all. "I have formulated a plan...one that is harrowing, interesting, and provides immediate freedom. I am going to leave tomorrow evening...and enter the forest."

Marcus slowly made his way back to his shack. He had been working from Noon till now working in the field. He spent his day clearing weeds, plowing, and seeding and had just got done. It would have been done sooner except he was the onlyone working while the others watched. He didn't mind it though, atleast the children couldn't tease or taunt him while he worked.

Sweat trickeld from under his mask and down his neck. He slowly wiped it away and kept walking. His white shirt was now brown and his pants and boots were caked in mud. He wore a mask with only one eye-hole so the others couldn't look at his face. He usally wore long-sleeved shirts but today had been especially hot so he rolled up his shirt alittle bit. His skin covered with horrible and ghastly scars and burn marks.

He kept walking, slowly pulling at his hoe that he brought with him where ever he went. As he continued on, the hoe skipped and bumped into the Stepping stones in the ground so they kept making a loud tapping noise. When he was allmost at his shack, he heard a group of people talking. He stopped and wondered who could be out this late at night. He placed his hoe against his door and slowly made his way to the square to Investigate the noises.

Nikeaia listened to Titanya and her eyes went "wide" with shock at what she intended to do. "You...you're running away...to the forest?" she asked. Her voice rised a bit as she asked and she clapped her hands over her mouth instantly.

"You know we're not supposed to go in there." she said quietly.
