Wahhahaa whooeee! *fidgets quite happily* Qvestion though - do we need to have a set character for our "companion" self, or can we just RP one (or must we do all?) of our unicorn mares? I've only just sort of come up with a general description for my pair, and a much better idea about the one - nothing yet for my more "human" incarnation in the Realm. - Del

Weee, people! *dances around happily* You can RP as many or few of your unicorns and/or characters as you feel comfortable. If you're really not "feeling" anything for a companion's character, you don't absolutely have to have one, either You can simply RP your unicorn by herself, and this won't in affect your game play/out come in any way. Not all unicorns have companions, after all, so you won't be left out Does that answer you question? Or have a just confused you more? *G* Lady Whimsy ~

Oh, and just so I'm not confusing everyone... As the stories of Kalidore developed, I realized the acute importance for the First Daughter in the scheme of things, and created Acousa as a stand by - since it didn't seem fair to me to put all that baggage on Mare Imbrium and Debijayn. Then, after talking it over with Debijayn, we came to a wonderful arrangement - Mare Imbrium will come home with me and take over her proper place as First Daughter, and twin of Odin, and Acosua will take *her* proper tital - Daughter of Storytelling, and Mascot of our RP's I'll be doing the modifications tonight, so they should show up in due time. Sorry if I confuzzeled you all Lady Whimsy ~

Oh and I just wanted to clarify in case anyone didn't understand this part of the RP. We are assuming that at this point in time, there are NO other humans other than the ones listed currently on Kalidore. This little prologue is where your unicorns will accompany us to FIND your human persona's (if your going to have some) and they will bond durng the RP and become companions. Hence the seeking the companions title. But I just wanted to ensure everyone understood that right off the bat So get yoru unicorns together and come and meet us in the field, and we will go off together to find your unicorns human companions.

Quite welcome! Do tell if you don't like the background color - I just sort of picked a couple of pretty ones, but tried to make them all fairly different. If you've got another one in mind, I can do a quick change fairly easily. - Del

They look fantabulous Couldn't have done better myself! Annnnnnnd in the meantime, I finished up really quick pictures of Tyden and the Daiga Here is Tyden. I figured we need more male characters I haven't entirely figured out what to do with him, but I think he's good to have until we wander across others in the course of the RP. I always fuss over drawing men because I feel they come out too feminine looking half the time. (Well, if for the only reason that I always have access to a female model, lol) I wanted him to look more rugged and less male model, but it's a start. And here is the Daiga. I really rushed her, but she's more or less what I was going for. Kinda reminds me of a muppet for some reason though? At least it's a friendly, wise looking sort of muppet And the roll play is going wonderfully, I'm so excited! And trying not to post every other person, to try and give more space for other people, lol! Lady Whimsy ~

*is bouncing around with excitement at how well the RP has taken off* As it comes time to depart on our "search" for those companions, can I have a roll call of everyone who's unicorn will find one on this journey? This is mostly for me so I can work everyone in, but it will probably help others keep track of us, too. Simply post here: Unicorn - Companion - Where (on earth is your companion from? - What *era* is your your companion from? - What first brought her and her unicorn together? - If you're not sure about the details, don't worry - we can help! Looking forward to seeing how this goes! Lady Whimsy ~

Here ya go! I hope it's ok enough ^^;
Unicorn - Fiera Companion - Me/Silent? Where (on earth is your companion from? - On the outskirts of a large city. Where it's away from the noise and foresty.
What *era* is your your companion from? - Present day (with all the cars, computers and all that other stuff)
What first brought her and her unicorn together? - Silent was frustrated by people for criticizing her because she was day dreaming to much. Desperate to escape reality, she decided to take a walk in the forest behind her house. Wandering, she lost her way and ended up in a meadow. Soon tired, she drifted to sleep under a tree and woke up to something sniffing her - a unicorn! Desperate to go after the unicorn, she followed the mare and friends. Delighted by the follower, the unicorn...
(and you can help me with the details after that ^^)

I's gots a question! In regard to the companions - do all unicorns owned by me have to have the same companion? Or can I have one for each? (Was thinking about having a male/female for one or the other - which then leads to all sorts of fun ... personality clashes XD) - Del

It's one unicorn per companion and vice-versa So if you're playing a persona but have more then one unicorn, only one can be the one you're "bonded" to. I really like where your ideas are going, though I think for now try and stick to one created companion/unicorn pair, at least until we get the hang of things You don't really want to overwhelm your story masters, now do you? *G* Though I think we've been doing a really good job of over-whelming you, lol! Oh, also, I *think* we had worked it out that females bond to females and males to males (all in the terms of sisterhood or brotherhood lines through the ages) I will re-convene with Lady E on this one. Though there will be ways to definitely bring more genders into the rp - namely male - as I'm sure poor Tyden is feeling a little trapped in a hen house right now.... LAdy Whimsy ~

Lady Whimsy can correct me if i'm wrong in this because I've never clarified this with her but from my understanding, a human can have more than one companion unicorn but the bond is always strongest with one unicorn in particular. They can't have the strong eternal ying to yang type of connection with more than one unicorn. Because it's like finding your soul mate so to speak, your other half.
Therefore, i would say that it would be preferred actually if you created a human companion for each of your unicorns (if you want them to have a companion that is, obviously all unicorns wouldn't...actually most would not, only a small number of them would). Because then they could have that close bond which is essential to being true companions.

Ahh, okay - that clarifies things. Although, I didn't communicate it quite as clearly as I meant to - I wasn't planning on having 2 persons -> 1 unicorn - which IS a kinda neat idea, ha! - and although I wasn't sure if 1 person -> 2 unis would work, I was more interested in (1 person -> 1 unicorn) x 2. I wanted one of the companions to be a female, and the other to be male. The basic idea was to have the two companions be at odds with one another, but because ze two unicorns are really close, they are constantly in forced contact with eachother and must play nice. Thus leading into grudging respect... etc. etc. etc. Yeah. *giggle* But! If girls -> girls, boys -> boys is the only option ... I can rethink it out a bit more. As long as you're okay with my continued waffling. Hehe. - Del

Nope, that's exactly what I thought you meant, Del I really like your idea, too. It makes me tingle with possibilities! I'm even tempted to reconsider the whole gender-bond type thing a little more The reason why we went with same sexes for the companion was because there's sooooo many stories out there about the Timid Young Girl and her Fiery Black Stallion... lol, they read like trashy romance novels. Actually, a lot of them are trashy romance novels (not that there's anything wrong with a trashy romance or two, even on Kalidore Also we figured, when it came right down to it, who's going to know you best through all the stages of your life? Probably, someone who's shared them too. And until a man can have cramps, I'm not convinced he truly understands. Even if he means well And don't count out that there won't be... well, unicorns who might *need* a male companion at some time in the future. But I don't want to give too much away, other then yes, we definitely need more male characters! So waffle away! And have an extra helping of strawberries, they're great this time of year and go great with waffles Lady Whimsy ~

'Num, strawberries. XD Ahhhrm, okay. I think, maybe - I've crystalized on it. It may take some renegotiation with y'all at some point in the future though, haha. Thinking that, for the time being, having a girl bond closely with one of the unicorns, with a semi-sorta-bond with the second. (Obviously not as strong) - this is the current "Seeking companion" RP. However, (and obviously this is subject to change, haha) Time goes on, secondary unicorn eventually feels like third wheel - and wants a companion of her own. Upon wandering off in search - either due to negative feels of third-wheel-ship, or even closeness to first female - she doesn't want to "replace" her previous psuedo-companion with another girl, this gravitating to a male (probably as unlike the first female companion as possible - you know, that whole "FINE, I'll go get the OPPOSITE" thing.). Eventually returns with male companion, and hilarity ensues. But! For the time being, single unicorn -> single female. XD Now I just need to come up with a persona for the female. Methinks it's gonna be Spirit that's the lucky one, this time around. Pasiphaƫ's personality is so totally suited to the cantankerous and sulky third-wheel. - Del

Unicorn - Sierra Rose Companion - Raven Where (on earth is your companion from? - The vast wasteland known as the desert. (Some call it Nevada) What *era* is your your companion from? - Modern era, though she's got an "old" feeling to her (like she's in the wrong time) What first brought her and her unicorn together? - True Friendship... Raven had just lost her equine companion, who could have been a near twin (minus the horn, obviously) to the Kalidore Unicorn.

*shivers as things are about to get really interesting* I've heard a few people will be joining in the next few days, so don't be shy You can join in any time - just write yourself in where ever you see fit! For instance, once we leave Kalidore, you can easily join in as one of the unicorns that came a long for the ride, even if you weren't mentioned before now; we never really say how many came anyways Or, if you're currently Unicorn-less, and want to play a human... earth would be the perfect chance for us to stumble upon your character. Just fill out a form telling us where and when you're from, and we'll pass by your neck of the world on our travels. Anybody have any more questions? It seems to be moving along so nicely. I can't wait to see what happens next (and I already know, lol) Lady Whimsy ~
