Posted June 11, 2011 (edited) EVERY JOB THAT IS NOT FILLED WILL BE FILLED BY AN NPC UNTIL IT IS FILLED. Our world is split into five kingdoms. These five kingdoms are almost perpetually at combat, normally over puny things, however at aggression none the less. There are cycles when these kingdoms are at repose, though that heavenly time is brief. And in the course of these calm times, the leaders of these five kingdoms prepare their underlings for the Spartan battle that is to come, as it always does. Map of the kingdoms and what Pygmy species goes where The land of Origulok is lush. The grass looks like gold and the trees shimmer in sunlight. This is where the original pygmies reside. At the center if this kingdom is a great castle made of gold and copper. Around the border of this grand kingdom are guards dressed in copper armor lined with silver. All in all, Origulok is a beautiful place to reside in for the Original pygmies. The land of Windfit is home to the Seawyrms and Nilia pygmies. It is misty here, and everything is shrouded in fog. Most of the kingdom is sea, but a quarter of it is high, high cliffs. On the highest of these cliffs and at the lowest point in this sea, there are two castles that co-govern the kingdom of Windfit. The castles shine a brilliant sapphire blue, as they actually are made of sapphires. Sometimes, the sun shines through the mist and hit the castles, making a beautiful scene at sunset. Resident houses are on the lowest cliffs that stretch into the water. Next in line is the large and dark kingdom of Abyssalai, named for the Dark Myst pygmies that seem to live in an abysmal realm of mood and look. Although it is very dark here, the pygmies have no trouble seeing due to the little light that is shown from the sun. The castle sits in a sticky swamp that is littered with mud and goop, everywhere else is dry and barren. The castle is made of polished onyx that looks like a glittery skull in the low light. The temperature is cold and dry here. After that comes the tiny kingdom of Old Rudolph (name Old Rudolph because little Rudolph the reindeer is a misfit). Here is where the Misfit pygmies reside. The scenery is similar to that of a SpongeBob episode, yet instead of flowers in the sky, there are little salmon colored spirals. It was later found out that these spirals are really smoke clouds emitted from a flaming Misfit pygmy. The ground is sandy like a beach. The castle of the Old Rudolph gleams a beautiful emerald color due to it being made of emerald. At night, the smoke swirls in the sky will glow an eerie orange. Lastly comes the fiery kingdom of Flarist. The temperature here is stifling hot, but the Crimson Flare pygmies don't care about the heat, and neither does the environment, apparently, because the land is lush, green, and a bit humid. The sky is always light blue with a touch of pink during the day, and at night, it is a serene navy blue. It rains very often in this kingdom, allowing this kingdom and that of Origulok to be the breadbaskets of this pygmy planet. The planet itself it about the size of the Dwarf Planet, Pluto. It takes 260 days to orbit the sun, its axis is on a 25% tilt, and it takes 18 hours to complete one rotation. ^^' What's going on Lately, tensions have started to fray the rope of peace that so gingerly holds the five kingdoms together as a planet. It all started at the annual Planet Banquet when the prince of Abyssalai 'accidentally' spilled his tea on the duchess of Flarist. The duke of Flarist retaliated by swatting at the prince with a rubber chicken. When the duke hit his target with chicken of stretchy material, the King of Old Rudolph lunged himself at the duke and pinned him down. Once the duke was pinned down on the ground, he was sprayed with silly string. While all this chaos took place, this king and queen of Windfit sat in their dining chairs, happily eating, or rather hungrily nomming, their mudkipz fish that had been so lovingly prepared by the royal cooks of every kingdom. This blatant response to the fight caused the king and queen of Windfit to be locked in an awkward staring contest with the king and queen of Origulok. In about one hour after the fight had started, every nobledragon, king, queen, duke, duchess, cook, prince, and princess left the banquet hall in a fury and a huff. Ever since that awkward day, the warlords of each kingdom have been putting their soldiers through rigorous training. Types of characters: You are a soldier, preparing for battle against the kingdoms at your borders. You are put through the silly string chamber, you spar with rubber chickens, your whoopee cushion slingshots are ready to fire, and your paper bags full of air are ready to be carried into enemy lines and popped. You share a barrack made of reinforced balloon creatures with five other pygmy dragons. There is a corner in the barrack with a TV that has knock-off cable, and every bed has a large stash of jelly-buzzers underneath their pillows if of a sneak attack. ~~~~~ You are a regular working house dragon (reference to house wife), toiling away at your job, being a normal dragon. You have a normal house, you have a normal job, and you get a regular normal income. Be NORMAL, DANGIT. ~~~~~ You are a nobledragon, being noble, being a dragon. You have guards that accompany you on your outings, they are armed with rubber chickens and stink bombs. You have a bit of influence over a portion of the kingdom and the residents that live within your portion of the kingdom. (Remember, you are not royalty. The king and queen still rule the entire kingdom.) ~~~~~ You are of royal blood. You help run the nation along with your royal family. Kings and Queens have the absolute power. Princes and princesses are just there to be pretty dragons (and be trained to run the kingdom one day). ~~~~~ You are a Hire Wing, you stalk the streets of each kingdom, offering services to the warlords of each kingdom to see if you can become a soldier. Your services include: hitting enemies in the face with cream pies, cleaning enemy toilets with toilet melting acid, teepeeing enemy castles, and egging other kingdoms' subject as they stroll down the road.

Now he wanders the five kingdoms in search of employment. Personality: Cedar has a silly side and a serious side, but neither seem to be used at the right times. When he was in training, he was silly. When he was joking with the other soldiers, he was serious. Job: Hire Wing Other: Is now finishing a flight through the Windfits kingdom and headed for Flarist, may make stops in Abyssalai.' Username: Cyda Luva83 Character Name: Aspen Origulok Age: young lady Gender: female Type of Pygmy: Original Back story: Raised as an Origulokian princess, currently studying law, mathmatics, royal court and looking for a husband prince, like stereotypical princesses do.

When the King and Queen began drafting soldiers, Romana was unwillingly one of them. Personality: Romona thinks this war is the most stupid thing she has ever seen. She is overly serious, cannot take a joke, and is very out of place in the silly string chamber. She wants the war to be over as soon as possible so she could get back to her serious job of sorting books. It will take a lot for Romona to lighten up. She loves to read, or else she wouldn't be a book sorter. She has a high vocabulary, and sometimes throws items when highly irritated, which is often because Romona has a short temper and a sharper tongue. Job: Soldier Other: Seriously serious! Durppie Username: Durppie Character Name: Dirzen Age: 330, Adult Gender: Male Type of Pygmy: Misfit Back story: Dirzen was once a devoted soldier of the Old Rudolph kingdom. However, he decided becoming a Hire Wing was a better life than being stuck under the rule of kings and queens. He simply couldn't see the logic behind getting forced to do something by some group of other dragons just because they said so. One day, he faked his own 'death' by supposedly getting smothered in silly string by Flarist soldiers. After his comrades left him for dead, Dirzen gathered his staff and flew to the Abyssalai kingdom to start off his life as a Hire Wing. Personality: Dirzen has the tendency to tell whopping tall tales about 'great deeds' he's done in the past to entertain himself. Of course, pretty much anyone can see that his stories are fibs.

They're not that hard to find, and you'll leave harder marks." Rainbow_Joy Username: Rainbow_Joy Character Name: Pearel Age: 89 (Teen?)

Personality: Xalfer is a very calm nice person who is very strategic Job: Royal Other: Kigyptnee Username: Kigyptnee Character Name: Pyrrhus Age: 114 Gender: Male Type of Pygmy: Crimson Flare Pygmy Back Story: Being royal bears great responsibility, especially when the royal in question is crown prince of an entire country. Groomed to one day manage an entire empire of pygmies, the Prince is taught all the economics, histories, strategies, boundaries, politics, loyalty, pride, and all those other necessities that would one day mark the character of a great King that would protect his citizens and be willingly protected in return. Unfortunately, shoving all this information into the Prince's head, though important, is a long and rather boring process. At the peak of teenage hood and the beginnings of adulthood, Pyrrhus was tired of living the (rather dull) life of the future King - pretending he liked certain things, the formalities, sitting through boring lecture after boring lecture... he wanted to be free of this heavy responsibility weighing on his shoulders since he was born and just travel as a free pygmy, flying high in the skies and exploring, talking to pygmies he wanted to talk to as himself (not as the Prince) and not be forced to talk to high class nobles or other such figures because it was beneficial to the kingdom. Thus, taking only his favorite claw socks, Pyrrhus ran away from home to go live the wild and humorous life of a normal pygmy. And what way better to live an exciting life than to secretly enroll as a soldier and blast enemies with silly string and cream pies? Personality: ...RPed? Title/Job: Prince // A *simple* Flarist Soldier (I wonder if he's really fooling anyone here... ) Other: WOOT! Fun! Username: Kigyptnee Character Name: Wastani Age: 167 Gender: Male Type of Pygmy: Crimson Flare Pygmy Back Story: Wastani's life has never been anything spectacular; he eats, he sleeps, and he scrapes by a living working hard... as a member of one of the worst jobs in the country: The CCC, otherwise known as the Crimson Crap Collectors. While all other dragons are spraying silly string and popping paper bags, the CCC is a team of dragons employed to clean up all the mess left behind. They are the "custodians" of Flarist, doing the dirty work to keep the place clean and a nice place to live while other dragons are off in their crazy war. Personality: ...RPed?

The pygmy despises her position but she knows there is little she can do to get out of it. Her family has merely used her, as if she was a dishrag, and she is aware of the fact that once she is an adult, she will be kicked out of her home. Personality: Quiet, sensitive, and unintelligent. Despite these 'flaws', she is rather observant and a spatial thinker, which allows her to make wise decisions based upon information she is given. If presented with a problem, she will 1) run away from it, and 2) take time alone to figure out a solution. Then 3) she will return to resolve the matter. In the case of a conflict, Raven will remain silent, for she does not wish to have bad blood with anyone. Job:Regular, hoping to become a soldier when she ages to adult.

Posted June 16, 2011 (edited) Romona dropped her bags and looked at the barracks. This is where she was going to stay until the war is over. A completely pointless and stupid war! she thought with irritation, removing a pair of reading glasses from her snout. Grumbling, she dragged her stuff inside, and found a bed with a tag that said Romona in fancy script. She looked at the other 4 beds. Great, I'll be sharing this party place with other pygmies. It can't get any worse! she snorted with a huff. Stepping forward, she fell flat onto her snout, her bags falling around her, all her prized books and other possessions flying out to land on the floor. (Although mostly books) It turns out she had just tripped over a rubber chicken. I stand corrected. she thought with an open scowl as she looked at her hopeless mess.

Posted June 16, 2011 Pearel looked out of her window. "What's for breakfast?" She wondered aloud to herself. The pygmy kingdoms were in an all out war. Wars always ended in death and drama. Pearel loved drama. She hated death. Truely, there was no turtle reason to have war. So her parents weren't paying attention to a fight. "Goodness!" She exclaimed. "Gotta fly!" she launched out of her window to have a walk through the streets of Windfit. Share this post Link to post
Posted June 16, 2011 Cedar had just crossed the border of Winfit and was now flying over the kingdom of Abyssalai. He looked down and saw the barracks for the soldiers. Hm. Maybe I can find work here... The Warlord of Windfit wouldn't talk to me... Or could I hear him...? He was underwater after all. Maybe that had something to do with it. The little orange pygmy dragon landed with a quiet Thunk! on the ground infront of the balloon animal barracks. As he neared the entrance of the barrack, Cedar stumbled over a book. He looked up and saw a Dark Myst pygmy on the ground infront of a rubber chicken. "Um... Do you need any help?" ((Until we get some people to fill all the empty spots, any job that doesn't have a dragon is an NPC)) Share this post Link to post
Posted June 16, 2011 ((Italic words with quotes = talking underwater in this post)) Pearel swooped across the water and dived in without hesitating. She was looking for the warlord. Swimming around some rock formations, she found the warlord sulking by an underwater pavilion. "What happened?" She asked. "Some Pygmy cam and asked me for a job." The warlord pouted. "I thought that was good? We do need more soldiers." Could it have been the one she had seen flying towards the Dark Myst territory yesterday? "I WAS going to say yes. I was explaining the job to him and he flew off. Can you believe that rudeness?" The warlord shook his head sadly Share this post Link to post
Posted June 16, 2011 "Oh no, everything is perfectly fine." she blushed, embarrassed that another pygmy had to witness her spill. She began picking up the books and putting them in two neat stacks in alphabetical order. Her claws moved with a practiced ease, and the entire lot of books was neatly put away in 2 minutes flat. She finished by roughly kicking the rubber chicken out the door, the rubber toy landing with a sharp squeak in a tumbleweed. Share this post Link to post
Posted June 16, 2011 (edited) Dirzen flew alone, humming to himself. He had recently stopped by Old Rudolph, where he was born, raised, and trained. However, he didn't go to the Warlord of Old Rudolph to ask for a job; the Warlord knew him too well. After all, Dirzen was supposed to be dead. If any of his former comrades or the Warlord recognized him, he would get arrested for treason. This was also why he avoided other misfit pygmies, hid his staff inside of a bolt of cloth, and diguised himself as an anonymous citizen during his trip of sentiment to his old kingdom. Once the misfit pygmy had crossed into Abyssalai, he took off his costume and washed off the paint. The wooden staff was taken out of the cloth with great care. Picking up his staff and small bag of weapons, Dirzen walked over to the Abyssalai barracks. Edited June 16, 2011 by Durppie Share this post Link to post
Posted June 16, 2011 (edited) Cedar watched as Romona swiftly put each book in a proper place. He whistled at how quick she was at doing this job of book sorting. If he himself had to sort books, he would have to lay them all out on the floor and put them up in alphabetical order. It would have took him about a half hour. "So..." Cedar said casually. "Rubber chickens... they're rubber... and... chickeny." He stumbled over his words as he picked up the discarded weapon and tossed it in the air in an attempt to show off. When the rubber chicken came back down the orange pygmy missed catching it. As a result, it landed right on his nogin. Edited June 16, 2011 by CYDA LUVA83 Share this post Link to post
Posted June 16, 2011 Romona didn't laugh or show any amusement. She took the chicken off the orange pygmy's head, delicately as though she didn't want to handle it, and dropped it as swiftly as she sorted books. "They are also quite useless and have the most appalling texture!" she said with an ill look on her face. She wondered why anyone would want to hold one, let alone use one as a weapon. Share this post Link to post
Posted June 16, 2011 Reaching the door to the barracks, Dirzen poked his head inside the door. He found a Normal pygmy, and a female Dark Myst sorting books. The Dark Myst pygmy had discarded a rubber chicken and denounced it as useless and having an appalling texture. "No, I don't think they're totally useless." "However, he said, entering without asking and holding his staff. "staves are MUCH better weapons." "Now, may I have the pleasure of knowing your names, miss and mister?" Dirzen bowed with a flourish. It was being show off-y, but he could care less. Share this post Link to post
Posted June 17, 2011 (edited) "I guess they're useful for something..." she glowered, and she threw the rubber chicken as hard as she could, it made an impressive smack when it hit Dirzen's snout. "My name, for your information, is Romona." she said more politely, although she still disliked show-offs. that randomly burst in without knocking. She waited for the normal pygmy to say his name, for she was curious to find out who he was. ((I <3 comedy! )) Edited June 17, 2011 by Lalasa Share this post Link to post
Posted June 17, 2011 The force of the rubber chicken sent Dirzen falling over on his back as he got up from his bow. "Ouch!" The misfit snapped out of his nobledragon mode. He then addressed Romona more informally. "That is one heck of a throw. You could have just told me I was being stupid and all uptight like those prancing idiots in their castles, declaring war with silly string." He made a fairly good impression of the King of Old Rudolph, puffing out his chest. "For that, I shall start a war with rubber chickens and spray you with silly string." He regained his composure, not wanting to get another chicken in the face. "So Romona's your name. Hello." Share this post Link to post
Posted June 17, 2011 (edited) "Hmph, so you aren't a fan of that idiotic war either. It's not like I can make a good soldier. But those airheads at the top stuck me here anyways, away from my wonderfully dusty books into a horrific place full of stupid pranks and silly jokes." Romona huffed. "By the way, what is your name?" she asked, her sharp tone calming down a bit. Romona was in a bad mood. She was stuck being involved in some pointless war surrounded by the most unserious things imaginable. If she wasn't in the company of two male dragons, she would be throwing a fit. Rubber chickens and balloon animals were not among Romona's favored items. Edited June 17, 2011 by Lalasa Share this post Link to post
Posted June 17, 2011 "My name is Dirzen." He was suprised that anyone would like being with 'wonderfully dusty books'. He had read books himself, but shied away from volumes with more than 500 pages. "You kidding, Romona? Tell me this" he motioned to the red bruise that was swelling on his snout. "isn't proof of being a good soldier." "I quite like pranks and jokes, as long as they're not the same corny rubbish brought up over and over." The misfit picked up his staff, which had been knocked from his paw when he was hit with a rubber chicken. He was in the mood to go into one of his wild yarns about his various adventures, but he took another look at the bruise and thought better of it. Maybe later, when she doesn't have a rubber chicken or something to throw at me. Share this post Link to post
Posted June 17, 2011 (edited) ((I added to my character sheet )) "For even more information, you got that bruise from acting like a stuck-up princess. You are sure high and mighty for a traveler with a big stick aren't you?" she scowled at Dirzen, her humor lacking like it always did. "What are you doing here anyway? Same applies to you." she said, glancing at Cedar. Edited June 17, 2011 by Lalasa Share this post Link to post

Posted June 17, 2011 Pearel thanked the war lord and flew back to the castle. She left a note there explaining she would be visiting some "friends" in the Abyssalai. Running into her room, she said a goodbye to her dolls, grabbed as many packets of silly string as she could, and bolted out. She headed towards the place the pygmy was going yesterday. As she spotted a group of dragons, she saw that the one she had spoken of was there too. Pearel landed softly and watched them. Share this post Link to post
Posted June 17, 2011 ((Accepted, Dragice, and updated everything.)) Cedar watched with wide eyes as everything happened, from the flourishy bow, the hit with the chicken weapon, to the introductions and questions. As he stumbled over the answer to the question Romona asked, his mouth was opening and closing, as if he wanted to say something but couldn't. Cedar was terrible when it came to stuttering. After a little bit, he finally got up the courage to speak. "I-I-I'm Cedar, I'm a Hire Wing. Didn't really like my kingdom's motives for the war, so I wandered around a bit, looking for work. A-and I was hoping I would find some h-h-here." Share this post Link to post
Posted June 17, 2011 Pearel jumped into the group. "AHA! You're the one who the warlord of Windfit tried to talk to." Pearel exclaimed. "You left without even listening!" She accused. Share this post Link to post
