It's a beautiful day! [Or maybe the weather is terrible? It heavily depends what part of the world you're in.] But no matter where you are, today is meant to be a joyous day!

The Rose Festival - a time of frivolity and peace, celebrated across the map - has come again this year! Eat, dance, stop and smell the roses! Hear ye, hear ye! The Rose Festival lasts from this day of May the twenty-ninth one week, to June the fourth! Come one, come all! Eat, drink, and be merry, for flowers do not bloom forever! Come out of the winter of work, and let yourself grow in the sunlight!

Great things await! Watch tournaments between the finest fighters in both the Warriors' and Mages' Guilds, fine displays of power! And special thanks to the Hunters' Guild, who have provided for the feast from their best hunts!

[That's it, folks, your cue to party! All parts of the world celebrate the Rose Festival, as explained by our enthusiastic town crier, so you're free to be festive anywhere you like. This does not mean this week is all play and no work! There are performers, merchants, cooks - everyone has to come together to make a festival that can be enjoyed, after all.

The festival is also not without its dangers. Monsters may attack, or the fae may choose to join in the festivities - unusual though they may be, the experience might not be pleasant. There is also the more mundane danger of the rumored "Thieves' Guild". A distracted crowd is a bandit's field for the reaping.]

((OOC: And with this, Once Upon A Box is officially OPEN! Feel free to have whatever you like happen, be it monster attacks, beginnings of plots, or whatever else. This event will last for a week. Making your own post for the festival is perfectly acceptable, and of course you're free to backtag into oblivion.))

A brief explanation: This is a fantasy musebox with a classic fairy tale setting. Characters are AU'd into the setting - no canon jumping here! However, they can be anyone you'd like, so feel free to make the events of whatever canon or AU or other story they're already from fit the fantasy setting. It's a super-open setting, low-tech and high-magic, so feel free to have anything happen or build up - specifics will develop as players develop them. Feel free to build up your own epic plots and stories - this is a place where many fairy tale intersect and overlap.

All characters are allowed! Doubles, OCs, whatever, just so long as they're AU'd into the setting. They can be AU'd in, or recreated completely, whatever way you'd like. Normal farmer? Knight? Magic user? Magic user? Magical creature? Go wild with this - just keep in mind where your character is in relation to others. Some characters will live in an area that's friendly to magic users and creatures, others will live in more hostile areas. Travel is, of course, possible for everything, and there could be magical channels of long-distance communication. I just ask that you keep in mind what values your character may have been raised with and where they might be at any time.

Of course, I'm not really a stickler about those kinds of things, and we're all here to have fun. If you really want your character to interact with a character they realistically wouldn't be able to get to easily and there are no other ways, go ahead and make some pesky NPC fairies whisk them away and that's where they end up. When you need a handwave, blame it on pesky NPC fairies.

You all should know the standard rules - be nice, don't godmod, have fun. And if you want to take things somewhere above a PG13 rating, take it off-comm as well.

That said, I'd also like to use this post as a "cast list" of sorts. Tag here with your character's journal and give us a little blurb about who they are and how they fit into this world! Include anything that seems relevant. Maybe just a list of powers, maybe a little detail on where they live, maybe a brief history? Just give the rest of us something to use for plotting purposes. You can also leave a method by which to contact you for plotting purposes, as well. A few sentences to a few paragraphs, just whatever you feel like giving us.

Thank you, and have fun!
