EndZone Roleplay Adventure Chat Bot ((V.1-0))

An Original Character Tournament held in 2007 by Endling on DeviantArt, Endzone was set in the Everafter maximum security asylum and home for the fantastically traumatised. The setting is taken directly from Endling's currently outdated webcomic, Everafter, an asylum for mentally disturbed and dangeorus fairy tale characters. Invited personally by the Big Bad Wolf, competitors fight whether they want to or not. The Wolf isn't big on personal choice.

The Story The structure is there, just as you remember it. Standing bleak, shattering the horizon, a nightmare framed by dark clouds and even darker motives. But it hadn’t always been that way. No, you can faintly remember a time when your dreams weren’t haunted by it’s less-than hallowed halls and dark towers, stabbing high into the sky like some foul monument to sins past and future. Such a place shouldn’t exist, you whisper. Couldn’t exist. And yet, you've heard the rumors. You've heard the screams. You've smelled the darkness. You’ve tasted the fear. So something deep down inside you knew it was real all along.

"Hello child.. What big eyes you have..." You clench your hands into fists, hard enough to draw blood. Your lips tremble. You turn around slowly and raise your eyes, and force yourself to stare into the eyes of a creature that should never have been. “Be still, little piglet. I am not here to eat you..” Even in your dream, you step back in disgust, repulsed by the creature’s voice, honeyed words dripping with malice. Your throat quivers. Something is amiss. The dream begins to fade. But not like other dreams. No, where other dreams would slowly fade to reality, you simply fade deeper into the dream. Deeper into the nightmare. Deeper into the Everafter. The castle has a name, after all. You glance hesitantly at the shadow, and he seems to smile at you. Yes... it was the creature’s doing. Time is short, the shadow whispers in a tone dark and menacing as the Abyss from which it was spawned. Make your choice, little piglet. There’s a strange envelope in your hand. Ornate and delicate. Emblazoned with an insignia. The insignia. Unopened. Choice? What choice, you want to ask the creature. But words fail you. Because even without opening the mysterious letter, you already know its contents. Deep down inside, you already know what choice you have to make. Do you return to the reality from which you came? Or sink deeper into the nightmare’s depths? Steeling your resolve, you muster all your courage one last time. “I’m ready,” you murmur. And the nightmare begins.

Host and judges The hostess in charge of this OCT is Endling from Deviantart Judge - ProminenceFlare from Deviantart Judge - Ganondorfthethird from Deviantart Judge - scrotumnose from Deviantart Judge - CubeWatermelon from Deviantart Who is the host and what do they do? The host is basically the person in charge. This person is the one who first came up with the idea for the OCT. They have a lot of responsibilities, including creating and updating the tournament account, coming up with a set of rules, selecting judges for the tournament, posting the tournament roster, matchups, and winners, offering the prizes or finding other artists willing to offer prizes, setting deadlines for the rounds, and settling any disputes over the tournament rules. Be nice to your host, they work hard for you.

Who are the judges and what do they do? The host is in charge of finding a panel of judges to choose the winners of each round. The judges review all the auditions and choose the final roster for the tournament. They also see all the battles after the deadline for each round has passed and decide which character won which battle. Entries are judged based on many things, including plot, humor, artistic ability, character characterization and interaction, creativity, and the all-important "heart" factor.

Advertisement The Stages After your run-in with Big Bad, you are delivered to the island Everafter is situated on. There are a number of places you can set your battles here. I’ve included a rinky dink sketcherdoodle for you, a la amusement park maps. Haha.

You are encouraged to use the settings, but not adhere to any particular details. It should be how you personally envision it. Nor do you have to use a different setting each time. If you want to be inside the asylum every match, so be it.

1. The Asylum - Everafter is a monument to either genius or mania in terms of its design, combining the practical banality of a medical institution with the grandeur of gothic architecture. This includes all the standard parts of any given asylum, kitchens, inmate corridors, administrative offices, laundry, medical wings, etc. Feasibly, your character could spend every match in here. It’s quite big.

2. Misty Woods - Most of the island is covered in thick forested areas, with crisp, cool fog blanketing what areas trees don’t possess. Visibility is quite poor.

3. The Moat - As if cells, reinforced doors, armed guards and gigantic walls weren’t enough, the heads of the asylum thought it best if they dig a tremendous moat around the perimeter of the asylum. That’s cold.

4. Craggy Canyon - (You must be this tall to enter Craggy Canyon.. ) The canyon is basically a big rocky area with a chasm running a length of a ways through, with rough, uneven footing.

5. The Bluffs - The cliff area outside the great walls don’t lead to very much, outside of a couple hundred feet drop into the ocean. But then that’s one way to defeat an opponent..

6. The Faculty Residence - Being on a remote island for work either means you get yourself a dormitory, or face a four to five hour commute coming and going. Most of Everafter’s grunts, nurses, janitors and such have a tiny housing area to call their own when they aren’t mopping up limbs or sedating gibbering flesh-eating youths.

7. The Labs - A large compound for experimental medicine, research and technology, as well as an animal stockyard. Surrounded by a giant protective fence on all sides.

8. The Wall - The perimeter of the island is dominated by gargantuan walls, stuck together quite haphazardly like great fused sheets of metal.

9. The Control Tower - If a tornado managed to pick up about four dozen gothic cathedrals and slammed them all together, it’d look like the Control Tower. This is where the most esteemed of the asylum’s faculty remain, making sure things stay honky dory in the asylum from afar. It is the tallest establishment on the island, a tapering spire reaching far into the overcast sky.

10. The Port - For public relation purposes, the asylum holds tours now and then to display their technological prowess and good intentions. And most nobles from the mainland don’t like traveling Air Big Bad, so a port suffices.
