Workshop #1: October 2018—
§ about.
Greetings, everyone! This is Forgotten Tales first ever workshop! Here players can come together and discuss what storybook characters they are considering for their character's essence, their new potential abilities, and even ask for help if you can't think of anything on your own. This is also doubling as an official interest check, so don't be shy!
Here are some reminders about how essences work in-game:
If you have any further questions about this or anything in general, comment to the Mod Thread.
TDM will be up October 12th. Registration opens October 19th.
Game starts October 21st.
§ the form.
If you're ready, just fill out the following form and discuss away! One character per comment.
Player:
Character:
Canon: (and canon point)
Age: (of the character)
Bio Blurb: Just a quick blurb about the character so everyone can get a basic idea. Feel free to link a wiki and mention canon abilities in here.
Preferred Essence(s): Have one already in mind? List it here!
Looking For: What kind of storybook character would you be interested in? Things you're not interested in should also be mentioned.
Appearance: Any notable features both for the character in general and any appearance or style changes you may be considering for their essence.
Abilities: Whether you have an essence in mind or not, talk about what kind of abilities you're hoping to recreate or gain while in game. Any weapons that are going to be regained or explored?
Quirks: Are you interested in gaining any quirks of the storybook character? Or do you already have one already in mind? Need suggestions from your list?
Extra: Anything else you'd like to ask or talk about. Can be about the essences or just general ideas of what you'd like to hopefully play out.
Questions: Any other questions you might have.
Post away and go buzz about everyone else!
Greetings, everyone! This is Forgotten Tales first ever workshop!

This is also doubling as an official interest check, so don't be shy!
Here are some reminders about how essences work in-game:
- All characters will inherit characteristics and themes from a particular storybook character.
- Storybook characters can be from any work of literary fiction such as fairy tales, folklore, fables, nursery rhymes, classics, plays, mythos, legends, etc. They can be well-known or obscure, and origins must pre-date the 1950s.
- The essence doesn't necessarily have to match the character, just make sure you pick one that you can work with.
- Refer to the Abilities section to see how abilities work.
- Because the game currently doesn't allow duplicate essences, list your top preference and any others you're considering, but also be open for other suggestions. And if you see someone else list one you are considering, list it, anyway! Anyone could change their mind. Just don't be salty or badger anyone about their choice, otherwise it's an automatic boot out the door. The goal is to try to not only match the best essence to the character, but also one that people can have fun with.
- For a complete refresher, refer to the Character section of the Game Info.
- Feel free to hop into the Discord server.
If you have any further questions about this or anything in general, comment to the Mod Thread.

Aya | Infinite Undiscovery
Character: Aya
Canon: Infinite Undiscovery (post-ending, pre-epilogue, probably)
Age: 17-18
Bio Blurb: (optional: Wiki.) Aya is a princess who, against the wishes of her parents, left home to follow Sigmund, the Liberator, a man intent on breaking the chains tying their world to the moon and defeating the Order of Chains once and for all. She has something of a pushy personality, especially when it comes to getting other people (Capell) involved in things, but she herself cares a lot about people, and always wants to help if she can. She's very perceptive, one of the few people in the party able to see the qualities hidden behind Capell's somewhat reluctant exterior, something that complicates her feelings for and about him. Aya also doesn't want to lose who she is, the compassion and feelings she has for people, which might happen if/when she becomes the ruler of her country.
She also get jealous easily, is an archer and has a pet bear. yep.
Preferred Essence(s): Not sure! I was partly thinking of bear-related fairy tales like The Bear?
Looking For: Suggestions for essences... I don't know if I should go the bear route, or the princess route, or something that totally flips things on its head.
Appearance: I don't imagine her looking too much different than she already looks except with a slight change of clothes depending on her essence?
Abilities: She'll keep her archery abilities, generally speaking! She has the ability to use magic in canon, but I'm pretty lukewarm on whether or not she gets that ability in game. If I go with bear she may have some shapeshifting going on there though.
Quirks: Depends on what I go with!
Extra: Nothing I can think of...
Questions: CAN SHE BRING HER bear? yes it has a horn what do you want from me.
