Secret Forest RP!
Secret Forest RP!
It's been a little while since I have last had a RP, so I'm making a new one! Let's try to keep this relatively simple, and we can all make up the plot as we go along. In fact, do any of you remember Brookeira's Strange New Type of RP? I was thinking we could do something like that; where we make our characters, start writing immediately, and sort of concoct a plot. The main idea is: our charries go on a *normal* hike and enter the Secret Forest, a forest that seems to have a personality of its own. If they want to escape, our charries have to become an unlikely team...
Character Sheet:
Name:
Age (middle-school age please):
Gender:
Appearance:
Personality:
"Gifts" or powers of any type:
My charrie:
Name: Ellie Violyn
Age: 12
Gender: Female
Apperance Light blonde hair that reaches the middle of her back, clear bright blue eyes. A little bit short.
Personality: Though not talkative, she is certainly not shy! She is a great leader, loves to be in control and on top.
"Gifts" of powers: The ability to communicate with animals.
Following Brookeira's format, we'll each start immediately after posting our charrie. No rules, except try to agree with others' posts.
Ellie~
"Ellie and Mark, you're a team," Coach Grant instructs. To my disappointment, Mark rolls his eyes in responce to the sympathetic looks his friends give him. He slouches over, not looking at me. Coach Grant continues down the line, calling off names. Shifting my weight so as to better support the heavy backpack dragging my shoulders down, I glance at Mark, who looks away boredly. I stare at my pink-toed sneakers. So what if he's in 8th grade? He doesn't have to act so snotty!
"Listen UP!" Coach commands. The general whispering and giggling and grumbling diminishes for a few seconds; just long enough for Coach to order us all in the bus. Then the chatter starts all over again as everyone fights and argues about the seating. Spirits are NOT high today. Coach starts the engine. I watch through the window as Camden Middle School fades from sight. Sighing, I lean against the cold window pane. This is going to be an...interesting field trip.

Larkin~
"You have freak powers too?" Mark asks me in shock. I feel like he slapped me.
"Hey, she's not a freak! None of us are!" Sasha exclaims defensivly. She begins to shrink, and in no time at all is a fox!
"Wow," I murmer, as Sasha transforms back into herself,"Kids at my middle school?" Mark looks at me like that's exactly what he's thinking.
Sorry it's so short. Writer's block.

Sasha~
As we all realize that we've arrived somewhere completely new. Somewhere dangerous, mysterious, and magical, I start to feel a little bit strange. Murmurs of confusion ripple through the group.
"Where are we?" Celia asks as several other people that must have also taken refuge in the cave emerge into the sun dappled forest clearing.
"Wherever it is, it's not safe," Mark grunts in reply. A girl who I believe is called Larkin looks up at him suddenly, her eyes wide.
"That's your power, isn't it? You can sense danger. And I thought I was the only one with hightened senses..." her voice trails off in an awed whisper.
"You have freak powers too?" Mark asks, apparently shocked. Larkin looks taken aback. I feel a surge of protectiveness. I hate seeing others get treated badly.
"Hey! She's not a freak! None of us are!" I burst out. I feel my muscles tense and narrow my eyes threateningly. As a quick demonstratiobn of my powers, I shift into the form of a fox. A creature that holds a special place in my heart. Before things went down with my parents, my father would always call my mother his little fox... No. I would not think of that right now. I came on this trip to get away from my life at home. Quickly, I shift back into human form.
Looking around, I see others either discovering powers they never new they had, or demonstrating their own gifts.
Larkin seems to have perfect pitch.
A tall, dark haired girl is floating a little bit off the ground, spread eagled on her back, as if she is lounging in mid air.
A guy who I believe is called Tyberious is cupping a flame in his hands.
And Celia has several small whirlwinds rotating in the air around her.
As my anger towards Mark fades, I feel accepted for the first time in my life. All these people are like me. Not fully normal. But what really is normal? Normal is an undefinable, ever changing idea. Normalcy is abut as measurable as love. So, really, none of fit society's description of normal. But for me, that's perfectly fine.
Suddenly, Mark's face darkens, looking both confused and worried. I look around. Close my eyes. Look around again. Spin around in a circle. What? How could this be? Panick alights inside of my chest.
"Guys... The cave we just came from is... Erm... Gone?" Mark says.
I meet his eyes, some sort of understanding passing between us.
Everyone seems to realize what's happening at once.
"We're trapped," Larkin voices what everyone else is too afraid to voice aloud.

Hazel-
Huh? How can this be? Everyone emerges from the tunnel into a forest, but not the forest we came out of. It'shard to explain, but it is different somehow. Even mor strange is what these others are doing. Mark can sense danger? Sasha turns into a fox? None of this makes any sense! and there are others, too: at least Larkin, Tyberius, and.... well, I've always kept my power a secret, but maybe... maybe it's time to shw them what I caan do. I close my eyes and concentrate. Time slows down around me. I hear confused exclamations as I open my eyes. "This is my power." I say."Control of time."

Ohmygoodness, I've been looking for this rp but couldn't find it until now. Sorry for never posting a charrie sheet!

Phoenix-
A few people stare as I start to hover, but less than would normally. I guess we're all freaks here. Hahaha. I ma mesmerized by the girl who can turn into a fox. I wish I could watch this forever. Then, I realize, I can. I take out the disposable camera and film, and start taking pictures of everyone and their abilities. The girl who can turn into a fox, the boy who can make fire dance, the whirlwind girl. I will have to get the pictures developed, of course, but everyone will think that K faked them. No harm done there. I also get a picture of myself flying above the others, by asking one of the other kids to take the picture for me. I glance over, and see that one girl is quietly drawing in a sketch pad.
I fly over and see that she's drawing the cave and everyone in it. Even me
"that's really good," I say to her
She looks around, trying to find the source of my voice.
"Up here!" I shout.
I finally get her attention, and she looks at me. "Oh, hi," she says.
"So, you're a really good artist."
"Thanks," she says.
But before I can reply, I hear the shouts of the others. "the entrance is gone!"
Yeah, maybe I should go check that out.

Phoenix-
the cave has disappeared. Poof. Gone. I'm not sure anyone knows just what to do anymore.
(November 13, 2016 - 11:52 am)
hazel- The cave is just gone? That's impossible! This can't be happening! Although, I suppose, with magic everything is a lot more complicated. "We should focus on finding a way out of here," I announce. "We all have powers, I guess everyone knows that now. There must be some way we can use them to get out of here.Think, what opened the cave at the other end? Maybe we could use the same thing to open it at theis end."
On a side note, who is Tyberius's crush? You said you would pos it...

Tyberious~
i stared in awe as the celing dissapeared i put a fire in each hand and threw them in the air i did this twice and everyone's eyes widened as the firebals turned into little fireflyes made of fire and they flew around my head i pointed to everyone in sight one by one and a firefly flew to them "now its safer." i say as they watch the little creatures. "DON'T" i say pulling hazel away from hers who she was going to touch.
"Why" she whined as it fluttered around.
"you could burn yourself," i warn "They are made of fire remember?"
(November 14, 2016 - 3:58 pm)
Pheonix-
The fireflies are beautiful. Mine circles me a few times, and then settles down a bit. I fly ahead, now able to see in the darkness, racing the firefly. The others follow behind me.
"Do you ever walk?" Says someone in the crowd.
"Not if I have the choice!" I say, and then do a few twirls and flips on the air.
And so we all continue walking through the darkness. Sometimes, I will lift up someone and give them a ride in the air. Only if they ask, of course. We also spend our time talking about our powers, or 'gifts' as some of the kids have started calling them. We exchange tales of awkward times when our gifts have saved our lives, or nearly given them away. I've never felt so happy.

Mark~
Everyone stares at the place where the cave was. Celia starts to say something, but I tune her out as my danger sense goes wild. Again. But this time it feels more subdued, almost...long-distance and more indefinite. Sasha must have heard me grunt at the sudden pain because she asks "danger?" And starts looking around.
"Not to us...it feels..." I cut my sentence off as another headache flares, this one worse.
"What is it? Can you tell?" Sasha questions. Celia's mini whirlwind feels welcomely cool, and I try to focus on that to clear my head.
"I can't," I mutter, hoping she'll get off my case.
"You can't control it, can you?" She asks, her tone slightly cold. I hesitate.
"No," I spit out finally.
"Just focus," she suggests. Trying rather halfheartedly to listen to my sixth sense, I stumble upon a breaking point in the pain. A sort of mental river of fragmented images. Concentrating harder, I feel something else. And then the answer just comes to me, even though i can't see it.
"It's Ellie," I say, withdrawing from the flow of images and feelings, "she's hurt." I don't know how I figured it out. I didn't reach out with my mind or receive a mental email, I just sort of...sensed it.
(November 14, 2016 - 6:35 pm)
my firefly landed on my shoulder "WAIT you lost your partner?!" i say surprised
"YEAH. WHAT DO YOU HAVE TO SAY ABOUT IT." after a heated argument my hair is practicaly on fire ŸOUR SUCH A HOTHEAD" he said angrily to me. to hear that it hurt. we both were really pissed at that time. the fireflys were looking way bigger and were radiating heat. i closed my eyes and sighed. the fireflys returned to normal and i placed my hands on my head as the fire dissapeared from my hands and the fireflys were basically embers now. sweat almost blinded me though it wasnt sweat from warmth. the damp and moist cave air took care of that. something was draining my powers i quickly sprinted and beckoned for the others to follow.
"HURRY" I shout ergantly the light that i supplied was fading fast.
"whats wrong." i hear someone ask.
"Iĺl explain later," i say running into a dead end. "uh oh ."i say .
"WHAT"mark said
"were trapped."one firefly was left now and then it dissapeared i made a bigger one but it too blew out.
"we need to find ellie." hazel concluded
