@lady-grace ok so first of all I hope this isn’t weird to say, but you and your family seem really cool XD
I’d especially feel self conscious doing a Gollum impression if my parents are around ngl.
I’m curious, what are some of the most interesting things you’ve seen in here?
Also, I totally get that with Yarrow. The good thing is that this…[Read more]

@lady-grace LotR is so good! And that’s so cool that all three of you share this love for the series! Tbh I think my favorite would have to be Gandalf XD But Eowyn and Galadriel are also favorites of mine! AND YOU CAN DO A GOLLUM IMPRESSION? I think it’d be fun to learn how to do it…but I feel far too self conscious to actually prac…[Read more]

@jared-williams I have a few thoughts regarding this! First of all, I completely agree with what @lady-grace said. I don’t think that nudity itself is inappropriate, but rather the context and kind of portrayal. Of course, I think it’s one of those things that you don’t want to just casually throw in a story, but if it’s a logical, natural in…[Read more]

Just a heads up guys, @rose-colored-fancy is currently recovering from a minor surgery, so I think Cal and Ophelia are going to be out of commission for a few days 🙂

@lady-grace Welcome!
Yep that happens XD To be honest, two of my own favorite characters (Basil and Kit) were both HEAVILY inspired by two of my favorite characters from a series I really love. I found them really intriguing, and wanted to explore those kinds of characters further, so I just…completely ripped them off and reverse engineered…[Read more]

lol. I think it depends upon the definitions one uses for dragon and the world building – which means… personal preference. I have a creature in my fantasy books that breaths fire (sort of… it has a special compartment in it’s throat that stores lava and/or boiling water – as in from hydrothermal vents – and uses that store to blast its…[Read more]

lol. I thought it was appropriately and accurately awkward. 😉
looking forward to meeting your character! You jumped in at a interesting time. lol. The castle has mandated and forced everyone to sit at tables with dinner and wine to watch a dance. lol. and then after the dance, the castle is going to force all the characters to…[Read more]

It would be great to meet your characters!
The main problem with putting in four characters at the same time is that I’m not sure that there are enough open characters to interact with.I do have one character who is not interacting with anyone right now, so if you want, one of your characters can talk with her (when you drop h…[Read more]

When I was little the barn door was always a waterfall, and the floor was the rapids, so we had to stay off the floor–a variant of the game “lava”. 😀 I also had about a dozen imaginary horses with magical powers that were the colors of gladiolus flowers. Creating characters, storylines, and worlds is the best part of writing…[Read more]

@lady-grace your brother and sister are in Character Castle 2.0 right now, so if no one responds you could drop him in as well! It’s getting very full in there, so if you want him to interact, you’ll have to be pretty vocal about him being available and wanting to interact XD I’m waiting to see if two people respond to my character interaction i…[Read more]

@lady-grace Welcome! I haven’t been active in here, and I’m not sure I have the time to juggle two castles at once, but I’m totally fine with it! I’m not sure how active everyone else is, but I’m sure they’ll be fine with it too 🙂
Ok so first of all that’s very sad, but I also find it funny because annoying characters are so much fun to w…[Read more]

Pshht! 😂 Get your facts straight, my lady!
Yes, we were homeschooled, and most certainly are sisters. Some people think we’re twins 😂, but we’re a good four years apart.
Do you have something you like especially about fantasy?
I don’t know if it’s the same for Chloe, but fantasy is my native habitat. It is just…[Read more]

You like good authors!! I haven’t read Suzanne Collins or Chuck Black. Have you heard of The Witch of Blackbird Pond? (Elizabeth George Speare)? That one was good!
It’s not for everyone. I like the story unfolding, trying to guess the criminal, the excitement of the first read-through. With Dorothy Sayers’s I love the it for the…[Read more]

I’m kind of surprised you didn’t get on the SE forum before I did. You know what I like 😜, so I’ll just get to the point: Welcome!
And yes, I found A Tale of Two Cities.

Hello Chloe ( @lady-grace ) I love reading as well! What’s your favorite book or author? My favorite authors are C.S. Lewis and Dorothy Sayers, and my favorite two books are A Tale of Two Cities (Charles Dickens) and The Strong Room (Jere Wheelwright). I used to say I didn’t have a genre I liked, but it’s beginning to dawn on me that I enjoy…[Read more]
