So I am interested in getting an RP for Jim Henson's Labyrinth off the ground. For those of you who don't know, it is a movie released in 1986, starring David Bowie and Jennifer Connelly. It involves a labyrinth (oh, wow, really?) and goblins. If you're curious to learn more, you can look up fan sites, fan fiction, Wikipedia, etc.... But this really will go over better if you watch the movie itself and get to know the lay of the land, so to speak.

For those of you who are clued in, the RP will most likely be fun and a way to get stuck in the world of Labyrinth, as it were. For those of you in the middle, and those of you who still have no idea what is going to be going down, don't worry! I've done my best to tailor the story so that all manners of people (Labyrinth-knowledgeable or not) can easily partake and have fun.

If you need resources to better learn about the RP and to actually figure out exactly what goblins are (it's the labyrinth itself and the goblins that will most concern you), don't worry, be happy, and just feel free to drop me a PM!

Please title the PM " GOBLIN EARS" so I know that you've read all this and are genuinely interested in info.

But really, it's not going to be hard to get involved, as I've said. For some it will be an old world, for some a new, and that's about it.

Okay, that was a LONG introduction. But since you're here, I'm assuming you like to RP, and if you like to RP, I'm assuming that you like to read. Now that that's all out of the way:

************************************************** ************

PLOT: See the actual RP thread in the "Fan Based" forum!

PLAYABLE CHARACTERS: Humans (best for Labyrinth-newbies). Goblins (best for Labyrinth-fans), Invaders (which can be of practically any fantasy race, BUT YOU MUST CHECK WITH ME FIRST IN A PM, and can be played by either newbies or fans).

I will be playing Jareth, and possibly Sarah and Toby if they come into the equation (haven't decided). If there's enough interest, I'll have "auditions" to play the parts of Jareth, Sarah, and Toby instead of just me playing them. Basically the auditions would be interested RPers telling me what they know about the characters and how they think they would be played.

Will I have to make up my own hard, grueling puzzles? Nope! As said in the plot, the Labyrinth is shrinking, falling into disrepair, and just generally becoming less hard to beat. That's not to say it's a piece of cake (hehehe), but you don't need to kill yourself thinking of a puzzle to put in there. Heck, if you want, don't put any puzzles at all and just make it a journey! It's like a choose your own adventure!

Will I have to make my character sing? Only if you want to. ;)

************************************************** **************

If you require more information about the RP, the movie, the characters, etc., drop me a PM with the aforementioned topic, or just post here.

This RP is not meant to be hard, and will be playable by all levels of Labyrinth fans! So if you are even the least smidgen interested, let me know so I can get the RP in question up! Thanks for reading this far, folks. :D

hey Goblin Maiden! I keep running into you....Is it fate?!!! :D

Labyrinth would be so much fun to play.

It would be cool if Toby was old enough to be one of the adventurers.....

Yaaay! Running into people you know is fun! =D I am curious and have a question to ask of you, Silverbeam (and indeed anyone else who is reading this). Does the RP seem accessible to anybody, Labyrinth-knowledgeable or not, or should I go over it to make it so?

If anyone has any suggestions, throw them at me! I really think this could be a fun RP for anyone involved if gotten off the ground. =D

O.O

...
I LOVE YOU!! This is amazing... I wanna join!
I have loved Labyrinth since 4th grade, this is too cool... I am a HUGE FAN!! And a big David Bowie fan... Can I join?? And you remind me of a certain babe...

Anyway, this looks too cool! If you need someone to make a banner for you so you can put it on your siggy or something, I can do it. Or atleast try to. Let me know!! *Squeals like a small child in delight*

I remind you of the babe? The babe with the power? ;D

Of course you may join, once I get it all set up! =D And a banner? A banner, could you actually do that?!?!?!

*Goblin has to restrain herself from glomping Cupcake in glee*

Once again, by all means join when I have everything set up! And spread the word, without being spammish, of course. =) Any questions you or others may have, you may direct them to me and I'll answer to the best of my ability, just so you know.

It seems perfectly fine for anyone to join up. Very easy to understand. Perhaps the only thing to help for non labyrinth people would be a pic form the movie with the castle and labyrinth shown.


Now I have to figure out what kind of charchter to make. Perhaps a loyal goblin/ whatever antedate that is sticking to Jareth, and won't be dismissed.

WHEW! It is completely (for the nonce, at least) set up, people! =D Grab your friends (and a few strangers if you want) and head on down! Be sure to read everything and then send those apps my way. =D

As the World Falls Down

Count me in. x3 I don't know how I will keep up with it but I will try my best!
And, haha, Sarah! 8D I don't like her as much as Jareth but, seriosuly, she is sooo fun to write. 8D

And Miss Muffin, Do I know that Babe? XD

It's officially open for posting, people!

Have fun! =D

Muffin? I'm a Cupcake. You can't trust those muffins, with their blueberries and all...

I know it kind of... died... But I just posted, and I really want it to survive! So calling all peoples, Labyrinth fans or not! Dost thou heed my cry? Let us revive the RP!!!

*Mai rallies, waving the riding crop she stole from Jareth in the air*
