Tested on and created for Kh-Vids 5.0 Dark. All pixel art excluding the roses belong to and are created by Jayn. Please do not use or take without permission. Partially based off of Ib (go play it, it's free), but the plot/monsters/puzzles/everything is original so you don't have to know what Ib is at all.​

Garden of Eve: The 9th Rose​

"Ah, I see you've decided to visit the gallery. Is this your first time? Well, welcome! There are many unique paintings and sculptures for you to enjoy. Is there anything in particular you're looking for? Perhaps our guides, Krowley and AnnaLynne can help you?"


The female waves and smiles after being addressed. She looks young. The male however, just stares blankly. Upon meeting eye contact, he seems to glare at you. The greeter notices.


"Ehem, don't mind Krowley, he's just a bit...grumpy. Please do not be afraid to ask for help. There are many levels of the gallery, and we wouldn't want anyone to get lost, would we?"


He chuckles nervously. You begin to wonder how many visitors this gallery actually gets. You peek past the short man before you as he continues to ramble on about the artwork and how wonderful everything is. There are actually quite a bit of people here, including the group you're in now. You've never been to this gallery before, but the staff seem friendly enough (excluding Krowley). Maybe you'll find something interesting?


"Now, without further ado, please enjoy your stay. Feel free to wander about the gallery. Good luck!"


Good luck?

​

Welcome to the gallery, a magical and horrific place with all sorts of puzzles and secrets awaiting you. While the gallery may seem normal and functional on the surface, it won't take long from your arrival before things get a little ... creepy. While browsing the gallery you may experience dizziness, headaches, nausea, isolation, terror, spontaneous disappearance, death and monsters.


Sounds fun.


Let me give you the run-down.


There eight slots--six excluding Jayn and Krowley. Each slot is represented by a rose and a color. Each color represents a character's personality. Your rose also represents your life. If you lose all of the petals of your rose, you're dead.


There are eight levels of the gallery. You can think of this as a game, if you'd like, in which case there are eight levels of the game. Each level has a different color and challenge theme. Each level also has a secret that will lead you closer to escaping.


All six of you are needed if you'd like to escape the gallery. No man left behind. Meaning that each level needs to be solved before moving onto the next one, and all secrets need to be remembered on the final level in order to leave and finish the RP, and if someone dies, you're all kind of screwed and need to find a way to revive the dead. There will be one secret revealed to you in each level, and that secret will be specific to the color of the level.


For example, Jayn's color is 'White', personality trait being 'innocence'. The first level is 'innocence', therefore the secret found would be specifically for her. These 'secrets' are designed to help you remember something you've forgotten ... Something you'll desperately need in the end. Try to remember what you're told. Secrets have a way of disappearing, you know...


As for the puzzles, if floor one is 'innocence', (you can find this information below) then the innocence level is jigsaw, meaning that level one's puzzles will revolve around jigsaw puzzles.


Krowley and Jayn are the Game Masters as well as your guides. They will help you through the challenges and puzzles. They will also give you hints, if needed.


The role play is a bit of a hybrid between an actual role play and a game. The style of role playing/writing will be normal, but you are to use commands to do things. There is an example below under 'commands'. If you're confused, ask. We'll explain it. Krowley and Jayn's style of role playing will probably shift a lot. We're more like you're Navi than actual participants. A good example of the 'text-based- style can be found here.


The goal of the RP is to escape the gallery. The puzzles or challenges will all result in a key that will allow you to move forward and to the next level. You must find the key to move on. The last level will result in your key back to reality.


Important

> You're not only RPing, you're playing a game.
> Roses = life. You CAN lose life.
> There are 8 levels.
> Goal = Escape. All players needed to do so.
> Remember your secret.
> Krowley and Jayn will help you along.

This blue vase restores all of your life, but cannot revive the deceased.​

​

This yellow vase replenishes all health, and revives the deceased.​

​

This red vase increases your maximum healthy by one! These are extremely rare and can only be used once. If you come across one, you'll have to decide which one of you uses it.​

​

These 'functions' can be used to help you through the gallery. You can role play normally with these functions, I only ask that you change the color of the function. For example;

What commands you use affect your entire party, as you all share the same Inventory and such, so be careful and consider talking out your decisions before making them.

Search Room ⇨ By using the search function, you can search the room for any clues or items. You can also search for specific things.

Examine (item) ⇨ By examining an object, you can see anything that may be hidden.

Take (item) ⇨ You can attempt to take an item into your inventory with this function.

Give (item) ⇨ You can attempt to give an item to a person or object with this function.

Drop (item) ⇨ You can drop an item with this command. Dropping an item removes it from your inventory and is left wherever you drop it. In some cases, you can retrieve it again. In other's, it's lost forever.

View Inventory ⇨ You can use this to check your inventory and see what is in your possession.

Talk To (item/character) ⇨ With this command, you can speak to something (or someone). You only have to use it as a command if it's an NPC (aka; non-playable character.)

Hint ⇨ You may use this function when you are stuck on a puzzle, or need an objective reminder.

​

1) Your Rose is your life span. For every error and wrong choice you make, a petal falls. Once all petal have fallen, your life has ended.

2) Pay close attention to the rules on each floor, as they may be the difference between surival and damnation.

3) Certain situations may not always work. Do not play a scenario without seeing the properties of the objects. Example: Do not shoot a window until you know if the glass is bulletproof or not.

4) Vases will be found around this crazy world. For every 100ml of water in a vase, 1 petal is recovered. You may not choose how much you wish to recover as it is automatically set to recover completely.

5) When you sign up, please don't format your posts, excluding how the codes are already formatted. No posts templates or anything fancy (just for the sign up), please just fill out the form. Makes it easier to add! Appearances should be text descriptions or links to a photo. No image tags, please.

6) Your character's personality should reflect the color of your rose.

7) Please try to use decent spelling and grammar.

8) Please be specific when you are using commands. Along with this, no godmodding, please. Not everything will work the first time.

9) Stay active. Jayn will hunt you down if you don't (Krowley won't stop her). If you join, you're agreeing to be committed and stay in the RP unless there's an emergency. Take a good look at your schedule and make sure you're going to be able to actively post and respond. This RP does not require long posts (considering some posts will really only have to be a command). It requires dedication and response.

Note: Jayn is drawing your appearance. A picture or description works. If you describe it, though, be as detailed as possible. Regarding your bio and stuff though, feel free to keep things brief. Brief is preferred. We'll learn about each other in detail along the way.

 [/url]
Name: AnnaLynne
Age: Nineteen.
Rose Color: White.
Personality: She is simply the classic optimist. She believes in staying positive in all situations, and she's easily upset by negativity, though she believes there's good at the heart of everything.
Bio: Oddly enough, when caught talking to visitors, her past seems to jump around. Sometimes she describes the lonely life of an orphan. Other times, she describes being taken care of by wealthy parents--or an other sibling. She never mentions where she currently resides.
Fear: That there's no possible happy ending, desu.
Played By: Jayn

[/url]
Name: Krowley
Age: 22
Rose Color: Black
Personality: Krowley is often pessimistic and only believes something can be done through proven logic.
Bio: Despite his harsh attitude, he excels at what he does. Krowley grew up in a broken family with many childhood issues. He finds himself bored a large percentage of the time with little concern to others.
Fears: Bunnies
Played By: Krowley

[/url]
Name: Bree
Age: Fifteen.
Rose Color: Green.
Personality: Timid and cautious, Bree is almost always fearful of the world around her. We all find ourselves reluctant to consider the future at some point or other, Bree is one of these people. She likes to think things through quietly, only speaking her opinion when it seems needed.
Bio: Bree grew up in a relatively normal home. Her stay-home Mother had the odd habit of collecting boll jointed dolls, Bree soon picked up the collection and took great comfort in doing so after her Mother died. She lives with her Father.
Fears: She fears death, most of all.
Played By: Kelly//Korosu.

[/url]
Name: Vanitee
Age: 15
Rose Color: Purple
Personality: Usually fairly quiet and reserved. However, she has a much more flamboyant and brattier side to her, which shows if anything concerning her is compared or downplayed by anyone else. She prefers to think things through logically, but can also be a bit rash when excited, angered or upset.
Bio: Vanitee was born and raised an only child, and as such, she is spoiled rotten. This factor itself is the main cause for her bratty personality. Not only that, but her Father, whom she lives with, has the habit of calling her 'princess' and tends to treat as such, going out of his way to fulfil his only daughter's every wish.
Fears: Of being anything less than what she is.
Played By: Watanuki (Feenie)

[/url]
Name: Lucy Rider
Age: 18
Rose Color: Orange
Personality: Lucy is extremely caring and is always looking out for others. She is fairly positive and likes to keep an upbeat attitude, not wanting to burden others with her troubles. She would much sooner suffer herself than let anyone else suffer.
Bio: Lucy grew up as the oldest of a very large family and had to quickly take on the responsibility of looking after her many siblings due to her parents going out to work a lot.
Fears: Failing those around her, causing them to suffer.
Played By:Midnight Star

[/url]
Name: Sophia
Age: 17
Rose Color: Blue
Personality: Sophia is not exactly a happy person and generally doesn't like to talk to people or really get to know people at all. It's not that she's scared of them, but it seems that tragedy always befalls everyone she knows, and so she's a bit lonely, though it's self-imposed.
Bio: Up until both of her parents died, Sophia was raised in a loving home, but it all changed when somehow, her mother and father accidentally drove off a bridge. Sophia was then forced to live with her aunt, who wasn't a bad woman, but not too long after, she died of a disease. After that, it seemed that none of her other family members wanted her, even though the deaths were nearly completely unrelated. She now lives alone, in the small but comfortable house that her parents left her, almost concealed from the world.
Fears: Being alone forever.
Played By: Saxima

[/url]Name: Felix
Age: Sixteen
Rose Color: Yellow
Personality: Always excited and cheerful, Felix is a tireless friend. He can also be clumsy at times, despite his near-perfect dexterity at juggling and card magic. Moreover, the latter served as a way of polishing his sensibility, becoming very perceptive.
Bio: This clown-esque figure took interest in the arts of entertainment while still very young, and worked very hard to master them. When confronted about his past, he simply remarks that "it's not a story that would put a smile on your face, you see". His main goal in life is to spread joy and laughter to all, or rather, "turn those downs upside frown!"
Fears: Grief, melancholy, sorrow, anguish, and the like.
Played By: Judge Sunrose

[/url]Name: Carl Luca
Age: 18
Rose Color: Red
Personality: Overbearing and loud, Carl has almost no experience in talking with other human beings, despite his greatest attempts. He prys on every little thing and is almost possessive. If you get through that, he is genuinely caring. He can be rude, rarely on purpose, almost becoming insensitive due to his strange thought patterns. He is really empathetic, but his lack of experience makes him seem strange and off-putting.
Bio:He has no friends at all, but he tries constantly to meet people. He lived in a big city and stayed in his apartment for a full year after a breakup, and lost many basic social skills. He doesn't care what people think of him and is badly unhygienic. He has bad hearing and yells almost everything, which is rather disturbing to strangers.
Fears: People actually responding to him, Insects.
