Yes, this Labyrinth.
So I have always been way too into this stupid movie and kind of wanted to do, idk, some kind of rp or something about it
So as for the exact storyline, I'm actually not quite sure, since honestly there's so many possibilities you could feasibly come up with. I'm thinking something that perhaps vaguely mirrors the movie, or perhaps even parallels it more or less exactly but with different characters. Or, at least, the basic concept, with the Goblin King stealing a baby and the baby's elder sibling (or other relative) having to come rescue it before it turns into a goblin itself. The exact events of the story, obviously, could be quite different from the movie. We don't need Fire Gang or the Bog of Eternal Stench (but we all know they're gonna show up anyways). My point is, though, that the exact events would be determined by the characters' actions rather than attempts to copy the movie, because while it may mirror it, this is not supposed to be a reenactment.
Of course, I'm open to other plots involving the Labyrinth as well, either if you have one or are just dissatisfied with the idea of paralleling the movie and request that I try to think of something more original. Either way, I 100% want to be the Goblin King, though not specifically Jareth; probably, like, a different Goblin King. I have theories on that's a thing but I can get into that later. Of course, if you have other ideas, I'm open to hear them.
I'm looking for this to be hopefully a longer-term rp that is at least semi-literate, though preferably literate. Past that, I have two main requirements: obviously, you must be at least reasonably passionate about Labyrinth (as you probably had to be to even click on this), and you must be fairly creative. The second requirement is because coming up with events, locations, and background characters will require a pretty great deal of imagination, and the movie doesn't really give us a lot to go on as far as setting or creatures go, requiring us to fill in a lot of blanks as we go. Besides that, activity is not necessarily a major must- just reply when you can. I should note that this is not by any means intended to by a romance rp, though depending how the cards fall, I'm not against characters falling in love with each other. It's just not the goal.
If you're interested, comment or PM me directly. Pls someone I am very excited for this rn.
