However the animals in question cannot be any more than a mile distance away or they will not hear her sing.<br/><br/>Daggers- All the dagger and knife lessons the huntsman gave her make Snow White no helpless damsel. She is lethal in a dagger/knife fight.<br/><br/>Weaknesses: Insomnia- After the sleeping curse cast upon her by her stepmother, Snow White doesn't have such an easy time sleeping anymore, always terrified she will be trapped in the world of sleep once again. She gets sleep, just probably not as much as she should be getting.<br/><br/><strong>History and Backstory:</strong> <br/><br/>Lovely Snow White, so beautiful that she earned the deep seeded hatred of her vain stepmother... something that would alter Snow White's life forever.<br/><br/>She always suspected her stepmother had something to do with it when her father suddenly fell ill and died, the woman struck her as too power hungry and ambitious, not to mention that she never really showed her father the tender love she always felt should be present in a marriage...<br/><br/>Her suspicions of her stepmother proved correct when the woman ordered her huntsman to take her out deep into the forest and carve out her heart, all because the queen's magic mirror declared Snow White to be the fairest of all maidens... taking from the queen her coveted desire to rule as the most beautiful woman in all the land...<br/><br/>However, once they were deep in the forest and the huntsman raised his dagger, his heart swelled with all the tender affection from watching this sweet young woman grow up and he realized... he could not do this...<br/>Instead, he told the princess everything and together they devised a plan, he would carve out the heart of boar and take it back to the queen and Snow White would be free to escape and live her life wherever she so chose. The huntsman even took the time to return the forest several times to give Snow White lessons in using daggers to their fullest potential, ensuring the princess at least stood a chance in this world at defending herself.<br/><br/>However, this was not clever enough to evade the wicked queen... with the help of the magic mirror, the queen discovered the heart brought before her was not that of Snow White, but the heart of a pig! She had been tricked!<br/>The queen had the huntsman executed for his treachery and immediately put plans in motion to take care of the lovely Snow White herself.<br/><br/>Three times she tried, first with an enchanted sash that nearly squeezed Snow White to death before her seven small friends arrived to cut it off of her, the second time was poison comb that drugged the princess into a slumber, but again her dwarf friends arrived home just in time to pull the comb from her hair before it was too late. Finally, deciding play time was over, the queen poisoned an apple and disquised herself as a frail kindly old woman whom was lost in the woods.<br/><br/>Snow White, with her kind and tender heart, was sympathetic to what she thought was a frightened old woman and invited her inside, accepting the old woman's offer to split one of the apple's in her basket in thanks for the kind hopsitality in her moment of fear.<br/>Far too trusting, Snow White bit into the apple and immediately fell into a death-like sleep, a sleep so deep that the dwarves would believe she was truly dead and the princess would starve to death before anyone discovered the truth.<br/><br/>Satisfied with her work, the queen left the dwarves cottage just in time to hide around back as the dwarves were arriving home from the mine, their wails of despair filling the cottage as they believed their beloved princess was truly struck down this time by her jealous stepmother.<br/>Enraged, the dwarves immediately left the cottage and soon found the disquised queen hunched down behind their cottage, she stood no chance against the angry dwarves as they turned their pick axes upon her in vengeance for their precious Snow White. <br/><br/>The dwarves then set to work constructing a gorgeous crystal coffin worthy of their sweet friend, laying her to rest in her favorite wild flower filled clearing deep in the forest, where they could visit her every single day after work.<br/>Days passed and then a miracle happened, a handsome prince by the name of Florian was riding through the forest when he spotted Snow White's glittering crystal coffin, seven drawves knelt in front of it in mourning.<br/><br/>The prince slid down from his horse and approached, mesmerized by the breathtaking young beauty within, his heart broke as the dwarves explained to the prince what had happened to the beautiful maiden.<br/>He made a single request to the dwarves, that he should be able to send the lovely princess off to the hereafter with a kiss of love, for his heart had been captured.<br/><br/>Deciding it couldn't hurt to grant the prince his request, the dwarves opened up the lid to Snow White's crystal resting place and allowed him to approach and say his sweet goodbye.<br/>However... the moment the prince's lips touched the cool lips of Snow White, a soft warm breeze swirled around the clearing and Snow White's eyelids slowly fluttered open, a gentle smile curving her lips... standing above her was the prince from the dreams she'd had in this cursed sleep... he had come after all to save her...<br/><br/>Snow White and her prince were immediately married, no couple in all the land was happier or more in love... but this beautiful romance... it was not to last...<br/><br/>Her beloved husband and king, her sweet Florian... he was slain in battle against a risen foe by the name of Rumplestilskin... leaving the young queen with a deep ache in her heart and thirst for vengeance!<br/>The devious Rumplestilskin then added insult to injury when he managed to somehow pilfer the magic mirror her wicked stepmother had so cherished and escaping into another world with it, the mirror Snow White had desperately tried to guard and prevent from hurting anyone else.<br/><br/>When opportunity arose to travel to where Rumplestilskin had gone, Snow White was the first to volunteer, she had a score to settle and she would accept nothing less than Rumple's head rolling across the ground, just like he'd done to her darling Florian.<br/><br/><strong>Sexual Stuff:</strong> I am totally on board to have Snow White enter into a new romance, her wounded heart could use some healing that can only come from love.<br/><br/>My big no no's are all included in my o/o's in the link on my signature, along with my on's.<br/><br/>Snow White is heterosexual and is not open to threesomes, she's a one man only commitment type of girl.<br/><strong><br/>Story-Related Suggestions:</strong> I'd love to see the attraction to Snow White that Rumple had in the movie, but it's by no means a requirement, I can totally live without it.</div></div><br/><br/><strong>Character Name</strong>: Cinderella. She was called Ella in her youth, but was given the name Cinderella by her stepsisters, and has since taken on the name as a mark of pride.<br/><br/><strong>Player:</strong>HopeFox<br/><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Spoiler: Click to Show/Hide</div><div class="spoiler_body"><strong>Age</strong>: 24<br/><br/><strong>Role</strong>: Heroine, primarily logistical and moral support<br/><br/><strong>Appearance</strong>: Lily James, as per Cinderella (2015)<br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Spoiler: Click to Show/Hide</div><div class="spoiler_body"><div class="floatright">(https://elliquiy.com/elluiki/images/f/f4/CinderellaLilyJames.jpg)</div></div></div><br/><strong>Abilities</strong>: <br/><br/><ul class="bbc_list"><li>Cinderella has always had an affinity for animals. She can't talk to them as such, but they usually understand each other's needs and will generally help each other out when they can.</li><li>Recently, Cinderella has made a deal with her fairy godmother for some of her powers. Specifically, she can transform everyday items into useful objects, such as turning a pumpkin into a carriage, or an old, tattered dress into a perfect ball gown. She can't manage anything larger than a carriage or small van, and is limited by the technology level of the world around her. She can also transform animals into other animals (but not into humans). These transformations last until the next midnight, midday, sunrise or sunset, whichever comes first.</li><li>She can also conjure shoes, which don't disappear. That's useful, right?</li></ul><br/><strong>History and Backstory</strong>: <em>Have courage, and be kind.</em> These were the words Ella's mother taught her to live by when she was young, and this advice long outlived the woman herself. Ella's mother died when she was young, and several years later, her father remarried. Unfortunately, this new marriage was to Lady Tremaine, a cold-hearted woman who elevated herself and her own two daughters far above Ella's needs, and this only became worse when Ella's father died. Ella was forced to become a servant in her own home, and was mocked and abused by her stepmother and stepsisters, called "Cinderella" for being covered in soot due to her work.<br/><br/>Her fortune changed when she befriended a handsome young prince named Kit, and her fairy godmother helped her to spend time with Kit at a royal ball. Lady Tremaine attempted to poison the match or achieve influence over the kingdom by it, and eventually left the kingdom along with her daughters. Cinderella married Kit, who was now King, and thus she became the Queen of her kingdom.<br/><br/>And they both lived happily ever after, until Lady Tremaine joined forces with Rumplestiltskin, invaded her kingdom, killed her husband, drove her and her infant daughter Elise into exile, and instituted a reign of terror.<br/><br/>For two years, Cinderella and her loyal allies, led by the former Captain of the Guard, fought a guerilla war against Tremaine and the magical forces that Rumplestiltskin lent her. The cause seemed hopeless at first, but Cinderella managed to contact her fairy godmother and explained her kingdom's plight to her. Her fairy godmother agreed to gift Cinderella with some of her magic, as long as she promised to look after the weak and desperate, especially abused children as she once was. Cinderella agreed to this pact gladly, and with her new magic, they began to turn the tide of the war.<br/><br/>Later, unexpectedly, they started to gain substantial ground, and it seemed that Rumplestiltskin had withdrawn his magical support from Lady Tremaine. They took full advantage of this event, and with a few months they had regained the capital, and Lady Tremaine had fled. They were repairing the damage that had been done to her kingdom when the message from Snow White came. This explained Rumplestiltskin's withdrawal - he had gone to conquer greener pastures. Her path became clear. She would leave Princess Elise in nominal rule of the kingdom, with her trusted Captain as regent, and join Snow White to fight Rumplestiltskin and his villainous allies.<br/><br/><strong>Sexual Stuff</strong>: Cinderella misses her dead husband Kit dearly, but she looks to the future. She had a brief sexual liaison with the Captain while they were fighting their war, and with one or two other friends. She is receptive to advances of a romantic or sexual nature if she is approached in the right way. I'm generally up for all sorts of sexy fun in my games, so feel free to start something with her! I'm also amenable to her being coerced into something by a villain.<br/><br/><strong>Story-Related Suggestions</strong>: Cinderella loves to help other people with their problems, so I'll happily have her join in other character's plotlines if she's welcome. If she found true love again, well, that would be nice! It might also be interesting if her stepsisters showed up, and she had the chance to bring them to her side.</div></div><br/><br/><div align="center"><span class="bbc_size" style="font-size: 18pt;"><strong>Character Profiles - Neutral</strong></span></div><br/><br/><strong>Character name:</strong>Maleficent. There are no nicknames<br/><strong><br/>Player:</strong>WhatLiesAbove<br/><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Spoiler: Click to Show/Hide</div><div class="spoiler_body"><strong>Age:</strong> She <em>looks</em> to be in her early 20's. In actual fact, she is over 600 years old.<br/><br/><br/><strong>Role:</strong> Maleficent is an antihero. Once a champion of the Moor, the betrayal of true love has left her heart cold and bitter. She still hold position of royalty to the creatures of the Moor, and while having not truly picked a side in conflict, has decided that Rumplestilskin's conniving mind is humorous, and thus something that she can show support to. She cares not for suffering of mortal men, as the repeated sins of men against her (in her eyes) has proven them to be unworthy of her support.<br/><br/><br/><strong>Appearance:</strong> <br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Spoiler: Click to Show/Hide</div><div class="spoiler_body">Lookshttp://www.deviantart.com/art/maleficent-140763455 (http://www.deviantart.com/art/maleficent-140763455)<br/>Outfit:http://www.yandy.com/Furious-Fairy-Costume.php (http://www.yandy.com/Furious-Fairy-Costume.php)</div></div><br/><strong>Ability(ies):</strong> Maleficent is a witch, at least that's what humans call her. In truth, she is a fairy. As such, she has several magical abilities. While simple cantrips are of little consequence and rather easy (levitate a small object here, dump some water there, whatever might cause mild mischief), her true abilities lie in nature. <br/><br/>Maleficent is able to conjure lightning, and bend it to her will. Like Thor, she does this with the use of her staff....which to those not seeing her performing magic seems like a simple walking staff. However, the staff allows her to harness lightning, as well as calling upon treacherous frost storms. And summon thorn bushes anywhere and at will.<br/><br/>Her two final powers lay in divination and transmutation. She is able to lay curses upon people (ask Aurora how that works). Finally, she is able to transform....from a sensual woman, to a rather large, black, fire-breathing dragon. It is only in this form that she is able to fly.<br/><br/>She has one major weakness that may be her biggest undoing in this new, modern world. Iron. Maleficent is unable to touch anything iron. As such, she cannot carry a gun, enter cars, or even many buildings. It is universally dangerous to her. It was iron that took her wings, and it is iron that burns her wherever it touches. It is an unfortunate thing to be in a city, since most buildings are made of steel (which is derived from iron).<br/><br/>As well, Maleficent cannot cast magic when in her dragon form. The dragon form is impervious to most forms of attack, what with dragon scale being so tough. However, it does have a weakness. There is a single spot at the base of her long draconic neck where the scales do not quite cover. We're she to be hit in this spot, she would immediately transform back to her "human" form, and be vulnerable to normal attacks that most humans are. <br/><br/><strong>History and Backstory:</strong>Maleficent grew up in the Moors...a place of natural beauty, wonderment, and magic. From the time she was little, she had always been wary and curious of the human world. From her perch at the edge of the Moors, she was able to watch the human world seem to grow and flourish. At first it was idle curiosity, but it soon turned to wariness as humans seemed to become more and more aggressive and land-hungry.<br/><br/>As a child, Maleficent was able to fly, having beautiful brown wings. One day, she met a young boy who looked to be about the same age as her. For months they met and talked, and it seemed as though there could be a bridge through them between the realm of Moor and men. But it was not to be. The young boy, Stefan, became a member of the kings court, and Maleficent never saw him again.<br/><br/>Until one day, when they were both grown. Stefan returned, and used the bond he had with Maleficent to summon her. A night of passion turned to betrayal. Stefan took Maleficents wings, showing them as a trophy to the king and securing his place as the next ruler. Maleficent was crushed.<br/><br/>Biding her time, Maleficent let her anger grow, until finally she was able to strike at Stefan. Capturing his daughter Aurora in a curse, Maleficent reveled in the anguish as Stefan tried to keep his daughter safe. Finally, the day the curse was to unfold (Aurora's 16th birthday), Maleficent coaxed the king out, and slaughtered him in the woods. Content that her revenge was complete, Maleficent recalled the curse on Aurora, and retreated back to the Moors. <br/><br/>Human nature will not be denied, though. And as Maleficent watched, the human realm grew and grew. Many battles were fought to protect the Moors, and humans died, along with many creatures from the Moors. With nothing left to protect, a crushed Maleficent seemed to vanish. <br/><br/>But she didn't really.<br/><br/>To modern times we come, where Maleficent has flourished. With humans calling upon the protection of entire forests, Maleficent has found a place again. Hidden away, she has collected herself a tiny grove, where she lives. The stories of humans disappearing in the woods, never to return? Most likely it is because of Maleficent. Though nobody can say for certain.<br/><br/><strong>Sexual Stuff:</strong>Maleficent is a fairy. However, in all her time alive, she has only ever had that one encounter with Stefan, seemingly centuries ago. There has never been another creature that she has wanted, and the thought of being with another human enrages her...though she cannot help but admire the male and female form alike. Yes, Maleficent is bi-curious.<br/><br/>There are a whole plethora of yes' that can happen with her. Capture, seduction, even possible enslavement (though the powers of good would t really have use for that, perhaps Rumplestilskin could do with a fairy pet). As past stated, Maleficent is bi-curious, and might, if the opportunity arises, fall to the seduction of a beautiful woman...even a man if one were to tag along. After all, it has been a long time since she has had any intimacy in her life.<br/><br/><strong>Story-related Suggestions:</strong> I'm completely open. And I think it would be cool to have some sort of dichotomy between good and evil warring within Maleficent. While a bitter anti-hero, she isn't exactly evil. She just has evil intentions. She could very well el, be lured into the destruction of humans by Rumplestilskin, but I'd like to see someone show her humanities redeeming qualities, and perhaps try to lure her back to the light.</div></div><br/><br/><strong>Character Name:</strong>Well having many names throughout history and pre history, it’s a little difficult, lets go with Bob today.<br/><br/><strong>Player:</strong>Senti<br/><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Spoiler: Click to Show/Hide</div><div class="spoiler_body"><strong>Age:</strong> How long is a piece of string depending on what she is wareing depends on how old she looks.<br/><br/><strong>Role:</strong> Bob is part raven, and through the many tales she has appeared, her roles have been a little varied, from throwing curses across battle fields, and picking out the eyes of the dead(yum). Thus in this incarnation she was not altogether popular, but was respected and necessary. She has been the memory of a one eyed god, a trickster, a sorceress to a certain degree, and prophetic. She really is a watcher, and a recorder of matters of import, though occasionally gets involved. Obviously part of her job is to pass on said visions, as it is her duty and all that palaver.  For the most she does not play favourites as that is not really her way. After all there is a lot more than fifty shades of grey between black and white. <br/><br/>Bob is really a recorder of information, a watcher, and a messenger with precognition thrown into the mix.<br/><br/><strong>Appearance:</strong> Bob is definitely not the archetypal princess or heroine, though her hair as one would expect she does have raven back hair, and eyes black as coal, eyes which as sharp and bright and never miss a detail. She is relatively small and whip thin. For some reason her alert nature always seems to make her seem a little on edge, that with the speed at which she speaks gives her the appearance of someone with a slightly nervous nature. Whether this is the case is another matter. <br/><br/>A number of tattoos adorn her body and they are intricate and very fine workman ship, Bob also sports a number of piercings. Her clothing is normally black and could be considered a mix of Goth and grunge, for the most it is practical.<br/><br/>A little odd however considering her image Bob does have an easy smile, and often looks like she may be enjoying some private little joke to herself. She is sharp and witty, if a little cynical but does have a sense of humour which is definitely important in her line of work.<br/><br/>As a raven Bob looks like a raven, perhaps a little larger than some but she looks like an ordinary raven.<br/><br/><br/><strong>Ability(ies):</strong>Obviously Bob can shape shift into a raven and in this form can fly, her flying skills are excellent and is even able to do some intricate flying manoeuvres, also in this form she has a rather good aim. <br/><br/>She dies have visions and can tell the future, though it is not an exact science, and things can become a little messy, consider the butterfly effect etc. Sometimes said missions can be a little cryptic, and other times they can be specific. The unfortunate thing is that often people do not want to receive the news especially if it is not pleasant,( Don’t shoot the fackin’) messenger some people just ignore the warning, and some people are just stoopid.<br/><br/>She does have some communication skills with corvids and wolves, this is not control, and information might be limited.<br/><br/>The same goes for ghosts, which may offer clearer information, however they are not always forthcoming, and sometimes can be downright nasty.<br/><br/>Bob has an eidetic memory, which itself is both a blessing and a curse, especially when one is perceptive as she is. Also remembering ones own various demises in Glorious Technicolor is hardly a joy.<br/><br/>Her visual perception is excellent though what she makes up for in the respect.<br/><br/>However she Bob had a number of weaknesses, Some of which might be known, others can be researched or figured out.<br/><br/>The first (taken from Wold of Darkness) is a susceptibility to gold as in a weakness,(like silver to most lycanthropes.)<br/><br/>The worst is that she is unable to lie, yes she can misdirect, twist the truth, but cannot outright lie.<br/><br/>Hollow bones, (another WoD but makes sense.) Even in her human form Bob has light bones that are easily broken, especially with blunt weapons. She does not get into fights if at all possible.<br/><br/>Bob is easily distracted, especially by shiny things whether they be a diamond or even a bottle cap or a sweet wrapper. (Her driving is a really bad idea.)<br/><br/><strong>History</strong><br/><br/>Bobs history is rather either interesting, or chaotic, or confusing depending on where one cares to look, she appears in may stories  though usually as a bit part rather than a main character. She is in many a legend or folk song, from the ‘Twa Corbies, and Crazy man Michael, to the Ravens, and Odin’s little helper when he was having a nap. <br/><br/>She has cried on battlefield as the fallen died, and face palmed at mistakes that have been made and rules that have been broken Bob has documented the great and the lowly and anything in-between. ( and died more times than she cares to mention.)<br/><br/>This time around Bob has returned as a cockney girl that is the daughter of a drug addict, and was likely the product of some back alley fling. She did have a twin but he died a few hours after being born. She was brought up by her nan, who did a pretty good job of raising her. The visions palaver and being able to change into a raven Bob took in her stride, it was not really a shock as though sometimes a little cluttered she does have some other memories that she can access. (Not quite room mates in ones head but it can sometimes feel like that.) <br/><br/>Until recently Bob has been at collage studying art and working part time on the market selling bits and pieces and general tats well as hanging around in the grounds of the tower with the ravens there, annoying tourists. After all in her mind she may as well have a bit of a chortle before the proverbial hits the fan. This being inevitable as she has returned. <br/><br/>She does rather like a really good cuppa, and rather enjoys the soap’s Corrie being her favourite, however Emmerdale is a close second. East Enders she obviously finds highly amusing. Bob also enjoys a few of those cult type films, and as one might expect loves to quote from them. <br/><br/>Apart from the obvious Bob is a little eccentric, but in the scheme of things rather ‘normal’.<br/><br/><br/><strong>Smexy stuff. </strong><br/>Bob is mostly Heterosexual, however she is not big on getting into relationships, Michael sort of spoiled the whole true love romance. As a player, I tend not to have anything set in stone as far as relationships, and if the smexy stuff happens its all good if it fits. If there is none that’s all good too.<br/><br/><br/><strong> Story related stuff...</strong> What do you mean she might miss the latest in Coronation Street, who knows whats going on with Ken and his strange love triangle. And what will happen to Norris and his shop. :P<br/></div></div>
