Since we got 4 folks (including myself) for the Rift in the polls, I'm putting up it's own thread here.
As said, the story takes place when the Northern Lights extend across the world at different time eras, then the last thing seen was a glowing deep red crack in the sky. All characters of the story find themselves across a vast landscape of jagged mountain ranges with valleys full of dense forests. And in the far horizon, stands the massive red crack in the sky, pulsating with dread.
For characters, you're free to pick any hero and/or villain from movies done by Don Bluth or from Universal Studios. We can do discussions concerning other movies that Don Bluth may had a hand in (like certain Disney films). Here's the list (and it can be changed):
The Land Before Time
All Dogs Go to Heaven
Secret of NIMH
Thumbelina
Rock-A-Doodle
An American Tail
We're Back
Ferngully: The Last Rainforest
Once Upon a Forest
The Pagemaster
Banjo the Woodpile Cat
Balto
A Troll in Central Park
Anastasia
Titan A.E. (limit the space technology)
The Pebble & the Penguin
For the Rift Fey, here are some common rules:
- They can be male or female
- They are all small (same size as Thumbelina)
- They all have 4 dragonfly-like wings
- They are not powerful in magic, and it's normally enchantments (small space around them, small shields over self, invisibility & camouflage, and one other individual). They cannot use magic to attack others (but they can manipulate small areas to contain them).
- They cannot live long outside "the World Between" (the realm in the Rift), measured no more than a month or so
Other than that, you're free to pick or make your characters! We have plenty of time before we set a start date.
