There's definitely a chance that the species Charlotte created will get out of hand, there is certainly a chance she'll fall from grace, most likely in a quiet fall, without a sound, sort of thing. But it would really powerful and moving if Charlotte crawled her way back up and reclaimed her place in the kingdom.
Hello folks, I'm back with another forum game! For this one, you're going to take a look at the profile of the character who posts above you and predict something that you think will happen in their future. Then post IC as a character for the next person to make a prediction for.
Your prediction can be short-term or long-term, and you can be specific ("I think when Joe Hero finally makes it to the faraway castle, Princess Fairytale won't be waiting for him anymore"), vague ("I foresee great strife with your loved ones, but you will be able to overcome this test"), lighthearted ("I bet you're going to become one of those people with 10 cats someday"), or serious, just keep things SFW and friendly.
You can write your post IC as your character ("Friend, you're going to flunk out of college if you keep partying like that"), OOC ("Xondu the Great seems like they're ultimately going to fight their brother for control of the kingdom"), or even in the format of a fortune-teller or horoscope if you like; just have fun.
Rules:
- BE NICE
- Try to use characters for this game who have at least some kind of story, background, or personality description. There are plenty of other, more general, headcanon games if you just want people to make an assumption based on the character's icon. That isn't this game.
- Write something with a little substance! It doesn't have to be a long answer, but "I think bad things will happen to them" isn't enough effort. Read the character's profile, and write the kind of answer you'd like to receive!
- That said, while you're basing this on the character's profile, don't actually write something that's already in their profile. Extrapolate based on what's given.
- Claim first if you need time to read the character's profile and think of an answer.
- Please ping the person above you so you make sure that they see your comment! If you're not sure how to do this, you simply type @THEIRUSERNAME, and they will be notified! This will not work if you edit the ping into your comment later (like if you wanted to claim and then edit your comment in); you must put it in when you first submit the comment.
- You are NOT ALLOWED to skip anyone in this thread. If you cannot see the post above you because the poster or you have blocked each other, wait for another person to comment before replying to the thread. Feel free to bump the thread to encourage others to participate!
- Let two people post before going again, and try to vary the characters you post here.
- You don't have to edit your post to respond or say if the person below is right if you don't want to give away your story's plot, or something like that, but you can if you want to!
Have fun! The first person to post gets a free fortune.
*makes vague hand motions as if her fingers were above an invisible crystal ball and inhales looking for words* "...- no, hold on. I can't do it theatrically like this." *exhales loudly and lets her hands fall down, takes on a more normal posture, pushing her glasses up with her middle finger* "Well, ugh, miss. I have reviewed your situation and this will be part advice and part prediction. In my opinion, being neutral works either if you have the strength to back it up, or if you are so insignificant that none would bother conquering you. With you, neither is true, as you've made enemies without having the arms - pardon the pun - to back it up. Thus I predict that the subjects of The Frog King and the other kingdom who'se leader you...so fearsomely murdered...will ally up in vengeance and cause trouble on you in the future. They'd skip the lonesome "diplomatists threatening in dark throne-rooms" and head straight to military action. I predict that the next step in your political learning curve is going to be breaking out of your "neutrality" - learning how to compromise even better and how to make allies against enemies by taking sides.
Going a bit further, into purely speculative territory, I'd predict that, if the conflict was resolved, athopoda kingdom would still end up as the stub of one of the kingdoms to whom you've allied yourself with, leaving you as the sovereign in the area but answering to another rulers' laws and whims. Of course I don't know what the neighboring lands of yours are like but if they aren't literal nazies then it might not be that bad, if you play your cards right. You'd have the safety and infrastructure of being part of a larger political formation, whilst still being able to retain your land and make it a hub for your people."
Clandestino pinging because it's been 8 months and i am committing a sin
Lisandro seems like he would continue to run his bookstore for as long as possible. At least until something happens to it, and he's forced to move on, ie there's a natural disaster or he loses business. From then on, I feel like he'd pack all of his things into an RV or something, and then travel around as somewhat of a... mobile library, if that makes sense.
for the next person, some things in maribelle's future are included in her profile but it's pretty simple things, so you have mostly free reign lmao
[doing it from viper b/c heh ironic since he predicts bad futures, we'll see how much i can guess for my dearest maribelle]
maribelle will one day find her way out of her shell, but not easily. life is tasking and there are many ups and downs, and the downs are what really get to her in the long run. she's cynical that way, you see. she will struggle well into her early to late twenties with this, finding new questions along the way. is there a deeper purpose, why is life so hurtful. being so alone, she might see people her age and envy their lives wondering where hers would be if she were similar to them. she'll be a daydreamer, her head in the clouds. part of it is coping, part of it is hurtful.
the thirties will even her out more, she will find more control of her solemnness, the melancholic feeling. happiness at the top of the hill she's slowly working up towards. it won't be until her late 30's that she will find a woman she finds to be her heart and soul. they will click easily and bring out the best in one another, finding themselves enarmored for many years.
as an older woman, she will see the youthful girls that reminded her of herself in her youth. she'll remember the older men who guided her, and now more comfortable with herself, will offer to be the guiding light for them. she will be the type of woman who is sharp with her tongue, but loving when she needs to be. she'll nurse your wounds in the wisest of ways and when she laughs, you'll know you've done well.
Rex is gonna die of an accidental overdose sometime before he hits his 40s. In that time period before he bites za dusto, he'll get into a shitty, deadend marriage with a vapid celebrity who only likes him because he too is famous, will divorce him when she finds out about all the chicks he bangs on tour. She gets a good chunk of his money despite not really needing it as a fuck you to the rockstar. At least one of the groupies he screwed around with will pop out a little Rex Jr.
Dean is gonna join Dio's group of baddies and he's going to grow to be a worse person for it. He'll be a villain for most of the story until he makes a realization after a child is almost killed and switches to the other side. But only for a short time as he is killed before he can redeem himself completely, probably killed by his own dad to be honest.
in a bit of a sad coincidence, pixel will be killed much like how his mother was, but he will live a pretty nice life otherwise.
it'll take him a long time to actually die, though, and before then, he would have smacked down a good number of villains, and at some point will get into law. not quite enforcement itself, but the ins-and-outs and technicalities of it, getting a handle on it pretty easily to help himself recognize wrongdoings around him. he'll harden himself quite a bit, but he will still be just the kindest guy around.
he might even be remembered as a bit of a father figure or at least a role model for people like himself.
noel's got some history down, up until part four which needs a heavy ass edit, so you have full reign and can reference off everything else if you want! v_v
Vapor pinging because this be 4 months old
Understandably, Noel has fleshed out a lot compared to when you first posted him here! I would like to focus more on Noel's final moments!
You don't have to use this, though--
Upon learning of his infection, Noel began to reflect on his past. He felt that he had no regrets about what he has done, and how poorly he treated his loved ones. Despite knowing that what he did was morally wrong, he wouldn't have changed anything. There was a bittersweet tinge, but Noel believed that he has done what he had to do.
Despite his beliefs that things would never be at peace, he did not want anyone to worry about him. He chose to die alone, keeping in mind Maribelle's state and mental health. He wanted to say something, but he felt that she would be better off without him.
Cinnamon becomes a relationship therapist late in life, hoping that she can try to stop other people's relationships from getting abusive/break up already abusive relationships/console those who are victims of abuse/ect because she's still hung up over the fact she couldn't help Kalani.
(Sorry, I went little dark)
John will eventually find peace and get his closure but before that goes in his lowest low believing he’s nothing more than a monster. He runs around at night embracing his dark side. Only after he hurt the one he loves the most, he’s able to pull himself together and find proper help. Slowly he gets better, but he knows the primal is never really gone. In his later years he starts to be afraid of the other side in him which makes it harder for him to tell which one is his true self.
He and Hajime grow closer but she leaves when John keeps shifting between his selves.
With Nelo the future can be light or dark, whatever your third eye sees.
