The History of the Ruby Slippers (Thanks Spores!)

Have you ever heard of a splendid pair of Ruby slippers? Well, they go back quite a few years. Let me tell you the story of the Ruby Slippers, and what they have to do with the Emerald City today...

Once upon a time, in the most exquisite castle in the whole of Oz, there lived a narcissistic Queen. This girl was the most beautiful girl you have ever seen. With blonde ringlets that cascaded to the nape of her back, and watery blue eyes that twinkled like the night sky, nobody dared question her position as the most beautiful girl alive. The Queen's olive-skinned complexion was the envy of young women everywhere; and don't even get me started on her dresses.

Despite the woman's immense beauty, many people questioned her personality. Although the men were hypnotised by her looks - and envied the King with all their hearts - the women remained immune to her charm. They questioned her being, and wondered if she actually cared about them. Word eventually leaked that the villagers of Oz were thinking of electing a new Queen, so the present one felt like she had to do a good deed to repay them, and change the people's minds.

Hastily, she ordered for the King's messengers to send out invitations to everybody who lived in Oz, inviting them to a splendid ball. This ball was set to be a fortnight from the night the invitations were given out, leaving the royalty enough time to make preparations.

However, the night of the party came, and the Queen was without a good pair of shoes. Desperately, she pleaded every tailor in the whole of Oz, hoping that one of them would present her with the shoes she needed to retain her perfect reputation, clothes-wise.

Her luck was found in the most unexpected place - a bedraggled youth sat on a street corner, her clothes horridly torn as though she had been attacked several times by a dog. Her hair was tousled and coloured a mousy brown, her eyes a dim grey. In her hands, she held a stunning pair of slippers.

The slippers sparkled in the sunlight, encrusted with the most charming rubies one could dream of. Instantly, the Queen fell in love and hastily asked the youth for the price.
"How much for the slippers?" she asked, stamping one foot impatiently. Diving one hand into her pocket, she pulled out a bag of golden coins. The Queen was prepared to pay whatever it took to get these slippers.
The beggar named an incredibly over-expensive price, but in her desperation, the Queen paid it. As the bag of gold coins spilt onto the girl's lap, she watched the Queen hurry down the street and back towards the palace, her warning going unheard.

"Be warned," the beggar mumbled helplessly. "The Ruby slippers bear a terrible curse.."
But it was too late. The Queen had already disappeared around the corner.

Later that evening, as the Queen retired to her chambers after the party had ended, she sat on the edge of her four-poster bed and attempted to remove the beautiful slippers. No matter how hard she tugged, she could not manage to remove them from her feet.

Panicking, she turned to the nearest maid.
"Help me remove these slippers," she demanded. "I cannot get them off!"
Together, the maid and queen pulled at her slippers, but they remained stuck to her feet. With a great urgency, she called for the local Good Witch.

But the Good Witch could not help her.


---------


Meanwhile, an innocent girl by the name of Dorothy had landed in Oz, after arriving courtesy of a strange tornado. Several days after she had arrived, she had heard from a nearby group of munchkins that the Queen was having some difficulty removing her slippers, and that whoever removed them from her feet would get a great reward.

Dorothy was a very generous girl, and wished nothing in return. She wanted to help this queen, and along the way, bumped into several strange characters. Although her quest had originally been to see the Wizard of Oz, she felt like helping another was much more important than her going home, and hastily travelled to the palace.

A tin man, cowardly lion and a ditzy scarecrow accompanied Dorothy. They had met previously, when she had begun to walk along the yellow brick road. Now, a strange munchkin joined her, and together they entered the marvellous gates and walked towards the queen.

The queen looked far from elegant, but Dorothy gently tugged at the slippers on her feet and they came off in her hands. Delighted, the queen hugged her shamelessly and immediately asked her what it was she desired. Glancing around at her friends, she placed the ruby slippers upon the carpet.

"I wish that my friends and I may continue to live in Oz after we die," she requested solemnly. The queen looked astounded, never having heard of a wish like that before. Glancing towards the good witch who loyally served her, the good witch gave her a kindly smile.

"I can help with that," she replied. And with a wave of her wand, the spell was cast.


---------


And that's where you step in. These children are the offspring of Dorothy's wish, and they cannot make it alone. These babies require a lot of love and attention, and special care is needed to cater for their own unique needs. No two babies are the same, and there are many different species. Here, at the Emerald City, we adopt out these children to loving homes.

There are many beings in the Land of Oz.

Humans

User Image

Humans are least abundant, only coming from the outside world. Whoever lands in Oz that is a human, however, stays there unless they receive help from other sources. Humans can be male or female.
Humans go through 4 stages:
Baby-Can't do much, is very dependent on their guardian.
Child-Learns how to read and write, is very inquisitive, still relying heavily on their guardian.
Teen-Very independent, would rather spend time in the hills and forests rather than at home.
Adult-Is fully independent now, can find a mate and breed, and has moved out of their guardian's home. The guardian still has a major role in their life, however.



Munchkins

User Image

The most well-known creatures of Oz. They are short, dwarf-like beings, and are found mainly in their town at the start of the yellow brick road. Munchkins can be male or female.
Munchkins also go through the same 4 stages as humans:
Baby-Very small little things, extremely dependent on their guardian as they can be crushed very easily.
Child-As big as a human baby would be now, talks very squeakily.
Teen-As large as a human child, is still dependent on guardian.
Adult-As big as a human teen, is independent and can breed.



Witches

User Image User Image

There are very few witches or wizards (male witch) in the Land of Oz. They aren't always bad one, either. They can be good as well. If a witch is bad, it can go on a quest to become good. Witches are female only, and wizards are male only. Witches and wizards also have 4 stages.
Baby Witch-An innocent little baby...
Witch Child-Starts to show their mischievious side, if you are not a good guardian they will be totally independent from you at this stage, wreaking havic everywhere.
Teen witch-If you lost them at child, you can regain them back now, if you are willing to take a risk. They will know spells by now...
Adult witch-Totally and completely independent from guardian, unless you reached them as a teen earlier. Can now breed.



Anthros

User Image

Tin man, Cowardly lion, flying monkeys....are much like humans. Anthros can be male or female, and have 4 stages.
Baby-Same as human, with animal features.
Child-Same as human, with animal features.
Teen-Same as human, with animal features.
Adult-Same as human, with animal features.



Animals

User Image

Animals can consist of anything from the domesticated pet to a ravenous beast. Maybe even some new species out there....You can choose to make your Emerald animal domesticated or wild. Can be male or female. They, as well, go through 4 stages:
Baby-Very shy, can't really do much. Depends on species.
Child-Starting to get a hold on things, you start to bond with them now. Depends on species.
Teen-Outgoing, still relies on their guardian. Depends on species.
Adult-Independent, no longer deals with guardian unless it lives with them and is domesticated. Depends on species. Can now breed.

If only I had a heart...
</center>

Can I have a free custom?
No.

Can you reserve one for me in a flatsale?
No.

How do I get an Emerald?
Through a Flatsale, Auction, Raffle, or contest.

Is roleplay required?
YES! See Roleplay post below for more info.

Who drew the lineart?
Sayuri_Nitta draws meh human/witch/anthro/munchkin lineart, I draw the animal lineart, unless forced to draw humans, and SSJ Girl inks it heart

How much will they cost?
I'm not really sure yet, probably between 8-10k, each lineart is different.

Will you host it for me?
Up until adult, yes. Then please save the adult to your own server.

Do you do pet trades?
Yes but! Only if you agree that I draw it. It's not exactly fair for Sayuri to draw the pet, then I get the trade. Nu-uh. I'm a good shop owner. So if you would like to do a pet trade, joo must either get an animal, or face my people drawing skillz which have, surprisingly, gotten better. PM me. We'll talk.

....or if you are really DYING for Sayuri art, (who isn't!), then I will pay her share to her. This way, it's fair to Say, and I still get the pet trade.

Pets I would be willing to do this for:
Amazon
GMFC appointment

So what exactly is an Emerald?
An Emerald is a creature from the the Land of Oz, aka the Wizard of Oz. The are RPable, breedable, changing pet that will depend on you for help. There are currently 4 stages to the Emeralds; baby, child, teen, and adult.

I heard you are never here on Saturdays. Is that true?
'tis. I volunteer ALL DAY on Saturdays at a Humane Society. I am not here from 8 am to 8 pm EST.

What is a quest?
Quests start at the child stage. You are required to RP the baby, and shortly after he/she grows, he/she will be presented with a quest. The quest is a prompt in which you must respond in at AT LEAST 3 good-size journal entries. The topics will vary with the different children and species.
Your response will also determine the alignment of your child, good or evil? This is VERY important in young witches and wizards, especially.
After the quest for alignment is completed, you will then recieve and item quest. This is to gain an item for your child that it can bond with. For example, an evil witch would be striving for a broom, while a good witch would strive for a wand. Get the picture?

Roleplay is a must! If you do not RP at least once a every two months, or show some kind of activity, OR TELL ME you are going away, your Emerald will not grow and may even be taken away.
RP rules:
-Formal RP, not casual. Casual RP is like "*Pounces onto floor and smooches.*" Formal RP would be "I pounced him onto the floor after not seeing him in a week and gave him a big hug and kiss." See the difference?
-No cyber! Keep it PG-13 please.
-When not RPing in the thread, please post in brackets like this (( )), {{ }}, [[ ]].
-Emeralds should be roleplayed in the Land of Oz.
