“Most dragons hoard treasure, placing value in riches and gold. Vladaaroken is not most dragons. He doesn’t hoard treasure...”

“He hoards stories.”

Lily was an ordinary village girl with a dream: to become an actress. Every day she would go out into the fields and practice alone, with nothing but the sky and the flowers to keep her company...Until she caught the attention of the fierce dragon: Vladaaroken. Before Lily could cry out, she was plucked away and taken to a far off castle in the distance...

As it turns out, Lily isn’t the only person Vladaaroken has taken an interest towards. You, Lily, and countless others are kept captive by the vile monster, for one purpose and one purpose alone: To perform for him.

Vladaaroken loves stories. Comedic tales of triumph, tragic tales of loss; he yearns to know them all. Those he takes away are given a dangerous task: perform for him on a stage, whether it be a play or a monologue, and make sure it pleases him. Anyone who fails to move him with their performance...is devoured on sight.

Despite the grim circumstances, Lily tries to remain positive in a bleak situation. In a way, isn’t this what she’s been dreaming of? I mean, if you squint then yeah...

Will the two of you be able to survive Vladaaroken’s wrath by performing your hearts out? Will you two ever manage to escape? Or are you both only delaying the inevitable?

This came to me in a dream earlier. Literally, I mean. Like I went to sleep, had a dream about having to perform plays in front of a dragon to avoid being eaten, and woke up. I immediately started working on this while the idea was still fresh in my mind lmao

While Lily is the main focus of the roleplay, I went ahead and added the “male” and “multiple” tags in order to include the other characters, even if they’re minor. Not the dragon, though, he gets a dedicated “monster” tag.
