Nice to Meet You
He slides down the tower and onto the streets from the princess's balcony and makes his escape! Oh, but if only he would learn from his philanderous ways! 'But I won't learn,' he thought slighly.
It all begins in the city of the elven nation. The capital city, in which the king, the queen, and their lovely young daughter reside...It would be told that, according to rumor, the princess is quite tom-boyish and craves the life of a commoner. She often sneaks out of her lofty tower JUST to spend some precious moments away from the prim and proper life of royalty.
Now, it would also be told, that in this city, there lived two young adventurers. Neither of which knew the other exsisted...but that is to change soon. One is a mage named Elyke. A wanna-be illusionist, if you will. He practices in all the magical arts, as an intellectual persuit, but much loves to use his craft of illusions for giving street shows. A rag-tag magician without the thief abilities, if you will. The other is Nitsujj. He wouldn't be you're standard outlaw. However, he has been blessed with an amazing charisma and uses it as a weapon, instead of his brute force.
So it was, the princess came down from her tower, one day, to find a young and very attractive young, uhh, tailor by the name...of Nitsujj. She agrees to allow him, with much vigor, to 'meet' him in her tower, which he excepts...with much vigor. Later that night, he climbs the lofty tower covered in vines to reach her window. He taps on it...no one answers. He taps it again...still, there is no answer. Finally, he works up the nerve to open the doors, only to find, not one, but two elven guards in full-mail waiting for him, instead of the viluptuous fruits he was expecting...
He slides down the tower and onto the streets from the princess's balcony and makes his escape! Oh, but if only he would learn from his philanderous ways!...'But I won't learn,' he thought slighly...As Nitsujj runs through the streets, Elyke is practicing one or two of his more advanced invisibility spells. Wouldn't you know it...Right at the casting of the spell, the rogue steps in front of the mage and is hit with the spell's full effect.
It was revealed, later, that, after they had both narrowly escaped the elven city, they were forced to ban together and, thus, began their adventurous lives...

Interesting... so this is a way for two members of the party to meet, yes? A rogue and a mage, on the run together?
This is more the begining of a story than a scenario. There is no information for any other characters to be hooked in. There is no dramatic element, except the implied 'king to get daughter back'.
I would rather you write up the two characters, with this story as the basis of their conception/ history, then delete this mini-plot summary.
I think it's nice to be put in the beginning, just like MoonHunter said...but where did the princess go if she knows Nitsujj will go at the tower? Just asking...don't be offended...
I agree with Moon - this reads more like the flyleaf page for a fantasy novel than an RP scenario
Character write-ups for Elyke and Nitsujj would be interesting though - and one for the princess as well
Hope to see all three soon
Looks like we are still waiting for this one to grow.
Yeah, were I to vote on it, it'd be rock bottom.
