Describe your character/story in eight words

[AnyaKimlin]

''Royal Oaf'' to wise king then becomes a bird.

[odangutan]

No plot, no narrative. Or perhaps there is.

[springs]

Green eyed magician, interesting parentage, heir to empire.

[Mark R]

Heroic youth crushed by the exigencies of reality

[Rebell L]

My ideas so far;

Power hungry youth fixes her dad's mistakes

Slacker sent to retrieve obnoxious jewel

Android rejects pinocchio syndrome

Adult toy maker regrets childhood discovery

Prophesy subverted by genre savvy villain

I know, all less then eight, but they sound better this way

Story: War breaks out between differing philosophies of magic.

Character: Kylis's cloaks unite against evil king's tyrannical conquest.

This one sounds like fun, too

[Rebell L]

Nice to know some of mine sound good, I'll keep them for the future, although the android one's been in development for a while Funny, I thought those two might sound a little corny.

Hmm:

Other fantasy work:

Two supporting characters from the same story:

• Middle-aged, affable, naive former knight helps youngster
• Caring, practical restauranteur embarks on adventure

And the protagonist from another unrelated story:

• Young professional in dead end career battles incompetence - (with superpowers I might add, so not actually as boring as it initially sounds!)
