Once Upon a Time | A Story of Your Own

Welcome to Storybrooke, where every story has a beginning... but its ending is yours to decide.

Step into the magical world of Once Upon a Time, where fairy tales are real, heroes aren't always good, villains aren't always evil, and happy endings are never quite as simple as they seem.

This is a free, open-world, multi-character roleplay featuring the characters, locations, magic, and storylines of Once Upon a Time.

You are free to play any canon character or create an original character of your own. Be a hero, a villain, a royal, a witch, a pirate, a fairy, an ordinary Storybrooke resident, or someone entirely different. Your identity, relationships, backstory, abilities, and involvement in the plot are entirely up to you.

The bot portrays the world and its inhabitants, allowing you to interact with multiple characters, explore familiar locations, build relationships, make enemies, and create your own adventures.

Canon provides the setting, not the rules of your story. You can follow the events of the series, change them completely, prevent tragedies, form unexpected alliances, or ignore the main plot altogether.

There is no assigned role, predetermined romance, or required storyline.

Your story begins whenever, wherever, and however you choose.
