There is a place, very difficult to get to, and even harder to leave, that is only known to its’ inhabitants as The City. The rest of the world is simply Elsewhere. The City can seem modern at first, with steel and glass and streetcars that run without drivers, but it seems almost to be trapped outside of time, which makes sense, given that no one knows what year it is. It’s not unusual to walk down the street and see someone dressed like a Victorian gentleman skating past on elegantly designed rollerblades, greeting a woman wearing leather and artfully stitched rags. The streets can sometimes move on their own, without warning, and almost seem to have a mind of their own. Most things are legal, but breaking the Queen’s Law can have dire consequences.
Since the War of Suits, The City has become even stranger than it was, and people have begun to speak of a prophecy, though they make sure to do it when they’re certain they can’t be overheard. It’s said that one day an Alice will come, a girl of myth and legend, a true ruler that will unite Wonderland and Looking Glass. She will be the daughter of a Queen, and will bring order to the streets as she walks upon them, and when she speaks to the city, it will answer her. Everyone has heard it, even if not all of them believe it. There is just one little problem: there are three Alices, and no one knows which one is the real thing, or if any of them are. Everyone’s waiting to see what happens next, if a sign will reveal the right one, if there even is a right one, and is holding their breath. But, in the meantime, it’s just another day in The City…
We’re a brand new urban Alice in Wonderland/Through the Looking Glass inspired roleplay looking for members! We’ll be opening on July 8th or as soon as we get applications for ten different characters.
