Her?

Yep.
Not an exceptional actress, but quite fine eye candy, IMHO.

Since The Robin Hood tale is set in England, not an imaginary and/or vague un-named kingdom, I'd say he got to the kingdom of Grimm in a kind of Narnia/Alice in Wonderland/Majora's Mask style wandering-into-an-alternate-dimension way

I think I might use this explanation. It makes the most sense. Is that ok?

This nation should not be taken to be representative of my real-life views, nor should any of the nonsense I posted on here as a teenager.

Nation name: Nakarisaune
Character name: Jill Holloway
Age: 19
Fairytale Origin: Jack and Jill
Allegiance: Neutral; will work for whoever offers the most.
Appearance: Jill's short for her age, and looks much younger. With her hair tied back, she could almost pass for male. She has an athletic build but is very thin due to her poverty; she's also usually seen wearing rags or other ill-fitting clothes. Jill's blonde, with small green eyes and quite broad facial features.
Abilities: She's very good with medical cures, perhaps using magic, and is athletic with huge amounts of stamina.
Weapons: Fists and daggers.
Bio: Jill was brought up in poverty with her twin brother Jack. The family had barely enough food to go around, even with their father working as a woodcutter, their mother working as a maid, and Jack and Jill bringing water from the well to anyone who wanted it delivered. One day, after drawing water from the well, Jack collapsed due to running out of energy and fell down the hill, somehow paralyzing his lower body. Jill dragged him back home and started nursing him, with cures such as vinegar and paper, but none worked. The family continued to gradually starve, as Jack couldn't work and Jill left her job to care for him. Jill never stopped trying for the next eight years, until two months ago, when he died. Since then, Jill, fuelled by anger at the fact no-one tried to help Jack because they weren't rich enough, has been searching for a way to escape her poverty and family.

Okay, Jill. Grendel knows that your outside of the Tavern. Welcome and Come on in! :)

Hey, You-Gi-Owe, I know you're new to this RPing thing, so I'll inform you that it's not good to make other characters do things in your posts unless given permission. You only play as your character and only control his actions and reactions, not those of others.

Apologies.
I was hoping to interact with you without "making" you do much, or putting words in your mouth.
May I interact with your character, without commiting it to a course of action?

If you want to interact with me, then simply initiate a conversation, or do something else to prompt a response.

Got it.

BTW, if, for the sake of story, BBW thinks he sees some kind of expression on my face, go ahead a couple of times. Just to make it fair.

Right. So I finished my first job and so much has happened! Now I've gotta go to my volunteer job and I'll miss more. Sigh. On the bright side it's at a movie theater and they're showing snow white and the huntsman so I'll grab some inspiration from that. Also this is way too much to write on a kindle fire. See you all in three and a half hours!

Tragic really, since several villains and heros had intermingled in that little group.

I just love the fact that it's been two pages since The Mountain King stormed in, and nobody has yet to even take notice of him.

There's a reason The Mountain King is as nasty as he is. The Big Bad Wolf is a prime example of that. :lol:
