The Chronicles of Narnia : The New Story{OPEN} « Thread Started on Jun 23, 2008, 10:17pm »
About:
It's a take-off of the Narnia books, but the only similarity is it's...set in Narnia. XD No characters from the books, just made up ones. I have rules:
1: LITERACY is a must! 2: No Mary or Gary Sues...No tragic pasts or perfect people or anything like that. 3: Once four people have joined, no more. It gets too crowded otherwise. 4: The gender ratio doesn't really matter. 5: Keep in mind all of the general rules of roleplaying. 6: I'd like posts to be five lines minimum. Four is accepted for writers block. 7: Only humans. They can have animal friends, but humans were chosen.
Plot:
Narnia has been peaceful for centuries, with only a few scuffles over boundaries and the like. The animals co-exist with humans, though a few are still a bit wary. Through the villages, however, a rumor is spreading. Word of an evil presence living in the mountains has travelled into every corner. The Narnians are getting restless, and though some say Aslan will come as he always does to help, others have lost faith in him completely. Scouts and warriors are sent out, but only one has so far returned, and doesn't seem able to tell anything about what he witnessed. As fear spreads, one large town has yet to hear word of anything. It's located at the far edge of Narnia, mostly cut off from the rest of the world by a huge expanse of desert that surrounds it. It's in this town that five messages are sent, each wrapped in a small scroll. They were found by five of the least expected people, all of them in their teens and with no knowledge of anything past the city gates. They are told to meet directly outside of the city, and it's from there that their journey begins.
Characters / Biographies: The four chosen must be humans, but you can have animal characters too. ^^ No more than one human character, however. Also, the humans can't be relatives of any of the original characters. Hate it when people do that...

Human Bio:
Rose was now a only child since her ten year old sister and mother had died last year. Her father had taken it pretty hard and was now drinking and staying out late to cover up his sadness. Rose had to help out a bit and was cleaning out their shed when she had stepped from her house and into the desert. Confused, she tried to go back to find that she can't. Panicking, she went to find any more humans around and was confused when animals start to talk and direct her to a city. She's told to stay there until the rest come, but who are the rest? Name:
Rose Thompson
Age:
16 Gender:
Female
Appearance:
When you first see Rose, your eyes are drawn to look at her dark red hair that flows like waves down her back. It goes only an inch past her shoulders, though when you straighten it with those stupid straighteners it goes down two inches. Her hair is straight at her roots, but flows into waves as it descends.
Rose's skin was an ivory color. Soft as silk, but very pale. It contrasted nicely with her green eye and red hair.
If she were to stand, which she does when she allowed, she woudl come to five feet and four inches. She wasn't scrawny like she had come to see other girls, just a bit more well endowed than most. Not saying she was huge in those areas, but simply not small.
Rose is currently was snug purple shirt and jeans along with a pair of black boots to finish off the look. Her hair is pulled back in a high ponytail, but some of the hair in the front have come out of the elastic and framed her face nicely. Her face is heart shaped and rather young looking, to Rose' dismay. People say she'll love it when she's older, but it doesn't take away that people think she's fourteen or fifteen when they first meet. Personality:
Two things the people who have at least met Rose is that she is both open and stubborn. She doesn’t like to bottle up her feelings so she either tell someone or tries to remember to write in her diary. (Yes, she has attempted to have one so there is little paragraph in it about random stuff that’s personal)
She would move mountains just to finish things. It is proven that she will even stay up all night to finish her homework along with extra credit she is doing. A stubborn habbit she has, or well it could have something to do with pride, is that she hates having people see her cry.
Rose might not be in sport, but she is as competitive as anyone. In school she drives to be the best in every class, though she's not in /every/ class. It can be a n upside and downside to Rose, because if she thinks she's slacking off any, she'll double up her studies and work harder so she can catch up and be the best she can be.
Rose has never and will never spend every waking hour studying. She has to sleep and her legs fall asleep after some time so she takes frequent walks and hangs out with her friends. She might be a bookworm, but she’s a social bookworm. She does spend most of her time studying, reading the interesting and new discoveries that’s been made, its all so fascinating and she would likely always be wrapped up in a book without her friends. Rose is really creative. Thinking in ways that others usually wouldn't. She looks at things differently. Seeing the beauty in something small like a snowflake. Her reasoning never fails to astound a teacher. It's something she gets from her father. When you get through her stubbornness you would find that Lily is actually a really nice person. She has willing helped, well if you say told her friends what books to look in helping, with their homework. She is nice to the less fortunate. She is nice to mistreated creature. It is one of the better things about Lily.
Rose is very polite. Her parents had made sure they drilled manners into their children’s heads at a young age. It wasn’t the kind of cruel you better be polite or your die and go to hell thing. Her Father loved her and it just wasn’t the way Mr. Thompson behaved.
Belongings:
Currently, all she has is the clothes on her back and a knife in her left boot.
Other: Rose's cousins taught her how to toss the knife in her boot with exellent accuraccy. It was a self defence thing that she always keep it with her. It makes her feel safe.
