So I was thinking that we could have something along the lines of Book 5 (The Voyage Of The Dawn Treader) with the Pevensies and Eustace and Caspian and Reepicheep and all but maybe with a few OCs (Or not, just an idea) such as………………….
Eustace's sister (Probably younger, and also probably less of a brat and a bit of a tomboy? IDK..)
A stowaway (Or two, probably kids.)
A person found in a shipwreck (Any age) (Has been claimed by Rena Bean)
Or other ideas you have for characters! As I said, we don't need OCs but I kinda think they would be interesting to have. I know this sounds stupid but I've recently re-read the entire Chronicles Of Narnia and I have been feeling inspired
As for rules, same as andrew (Our Supreme Lord and Overseer)'s I guess, LGBTQA+ is totally fine by me (If you're uncomfortable with it either leave or just deal with it.) but I don't want to focus on romance as much since that's not really essential to a story and it could cause pointless drama. You can have characters fall in love but don't make that the main story please! Also, if we could use the main characters from the books rather than OCs that would be great but otherwise possibly could you use use the suggestions I put out? And also, let's stick to how the book generally went, maybe not word for word but generally stick to the main plotline…. ish. Interactions between characters in between certain events is fine, even coming up with certain events that were not in the main story.
As for the template, could y'all use the one @"Peter Duende" provided since I don't have any good ideas and that one kinda did cover all the bases or just claim a certain character (e.g. Reepicheep, Drinian, Lucy, Caspian, Eustace, etc.), I'll put down which ones have been claimed and by whom in the main post. If you have any questions, ask me! I'll try to answer them best I can, and if you feel uncomfortable with something just say so! And, last but not least, have fun!
Caspian- @"Peter Duende"
Also, I'm going to be gone for an hour or two so if I don't respond that's why.
(Since you're new to this, I'm going to offer some advice.
- Set a limit as to how many people can join. I've been in, and am currently in, RP's that have had up to 15 people, and it really gets confusing. I'd suggest about 10-12, and you can reopen the joinings if people/character's leave/die.
- Keep it the same rating as the Narnia movies and books. Some younger fans of Narnia may join this. You can state this as a rule in the main post if you'd like.
- Make a list in the main post of the main characters so everyone knows who is taken, and who is available.
- State whether shipping, LGBTQT, and others are allowed or not in the main post.
I've also taken the liberty of creating a template for you. Feel free to edit as you like, then post the edited version either in a new post or on the main post. If you aren't planning on editing it, either say so or create a character with this template, and then, if you don't mind, I'd like to join.

Totally! Is there a certain character you'd like to use?
Can i be a shipwrecked princess of archenland?
Sure, sounds good! Just make your character.
Name: Princess Cora of Archenland
Gender: female
Age: 14
Origin: Archenland
Appearance: Green clothed with a leather vest. A knife scabbard at her hip. Green hooded cloak.
Personality: Cold/reserved/competitive/ respectful when she needs to be.
Weapon (Optional): Knife thrower (with a knife thrower vest) and dagger.
Backstory (Optional): Unknown
Other (Optional): She good at blending with the surroundings and moving unseen. A deadly fighter and horseback rider. She has knowledge of plants that had been drummed into her head by the royal healer.
Follower of Aslan? She was told of him in myths. (?)
Great! Now we can wait for more people to join and if people do we can begin.
But also, can you describe her physical appearance as well? And no offense, but she's a little bit of a Mary Sue. Most princesses don't know any of the things she knows and also she would most likely be wearing a dress (Again, princess stuff) rather than a cloak. She doesn't really seem like the type of character a princess would be, so if you could either use something different or redo her that would be great, thanks!
