This is the first of three rp's. Road of Foxes, The Rise of Longface, and Lord of the Thirteen Blades. Start of the main plot below:
I was born into a small family in southern Mossflower. As a young hare, I was captured by a roving band of foxes, led by a self-proclaimed decedent of the Marlfoxes, Egur Dank. They traveled to the Western Sea, where the foxes stole a ship, but they were not sea-beasts, and knew nothing about sailing, so we shipwrecked on a small island, where a giant adder, Sayssiussss, ruled over a terrified population of field mice. Dank forced me into the serpent's cavewith a line of spears, where I found and killed the snake. Dank, however, closed up the the cave so I was sealed inside. I wandered the labyrinth for hours, searching for light. Fortunately, I found a small lizard, the serpent's slave, who was so thankful to the hare who had killed his harsh master that he led me out a back way. Once outside, I quickly freed the mice, but Dank and his band ambushed us. I fought bravely, but I was weak from lack of food, and was overwhelmed. I was put in a hut under close guard. But the lizard distracted the guard so I could get out. The lizard was captured and tortured and finally roasted over a fire. I, with thoughts of revenge, turned into an outlaw, wearing a black cloak and striking hard and fast, then disappearing. This went on for several months. Then one day, a ship the color of blood sailed into view. I saw this was my only chance to get back to Mossflower, so when it got dark, I climbed onto the ship and hid in the hold. For days, all I saw was barrels and sacks. Then one night, he heard the lookout call 'Land Ho!' I climbed into an empty barrel and slept. When dawn came, the ship was at anchor along the coast. But what really struck me was the volcano on the shore. It was huge! And smoke was billowing out of it. I had never seen anything like it in my life.

Notes:
1. It is just a plot idea. I hope to enlarge it greatly.
2. I have not included a lot about the characters; That is ok for now (see #3)
5. Please give helpful criticism. I said HELPFUL.
Good. I like the idea. It's flowing, but you should at the least think of this:
Set a mental quota for characters in this. This is a role-play, so it will need characters. But a quick number helps you metally organize. It could be 1 billion for all it matters in this stage, but you still should set it.
OK, for characters.

Helpful criticism.
It looks good but would a snake have a slave? Wouldn't a snake just eat him?
Put more s's in the snakes name :)
OK, Cam he can't have pistols sorry :(
Gabe, that was the point, a little variety never hurt anyone.
too bad. Also, It justs depends on the kind of snake. If it wasn't venomous or it's teeth were broken in some way, then he would need a slave to feed him.
Okay here goes. Dont be put off b the name, he's not at all a high-ranking leader... unless you want him to be!

Cannot climb for his life but digs and swims better than any otter or mole. He is called the Bough because of his trbes insufferable sense of humor. Is white with brown flecks. Is sixteen seasons.
You know what? Since you guys both have both, I'll take this one.
Sure be my guest. When does this start?
Look at the other topic. I think you're first

Occupation/Goal in life: To avenge his father's death
umm, I guess you can join. You can be in place of Dubruck cause I dont connect with him much.
I think you are next.
Rakefur, WHAT HAVE YOU DONE!?!?
Seriously though, stereotypical character named after a not-so stereotypical character.
Huh?
Stereotypical meaning it's like so many other characters in books.
I know what it means, but...oooooohhhhhhhh! Like Rake Nightfur! Nah, they're nothing alike.
Yes that's where Ah got the name from...
Not you Rakie wakie, I mean TAGGERUNG!!!! *dramatic pointing*
hmm, well we can have him take over Dubruct, cause I failed at him.
I feel even dumber than normal. But no, Ive rped with him. Tagg isn't so streotypical. One, he uses a blade, and how many otters do that? Two, the point is he is the Tagg, I think.
oh......
*derp*
