Anastasia - OOC

[TearsoftheWorld]

Okay, I plan on adding more to the intro post, but I think for now it shall suffice.

Anyways, this story is sort of a play on a play of a combination of real life events and fictional imagination. Anastasia was a Grand duchess of Russia during the early twentieth century, but her family was executed during the Bolshevik revolution.

In 1997, 20th Century Fox produced an animated film based on the story of Anastasia, and the idea that she had survived the purging of the royal family. Fleeing from the palace, Anastasia was knocked unconscious and lost her memory. She walked into an orphanage without knowing who she was or where she came from, only that she had a necklace with her with the words 'Together in Paris' inscribed on it.

After turning 18, Anastasia, known now as Anya, sets out on the road to find out about her past. In order to discover more about this past, she travels to Paris with two con men: Dimitri and Vladimir who plan on passing her off as Anastasia to collect the reward money offered by the Dowager Empress for the return of her granddaughter. But what they don't realize is that they have the real Anastasia with them.

So, I'll need a few roles filled up ^^

[Dimitri - A conniving young man (the same age as Anastasia) that seeks to claim the reward money being offered by the Dowager Empress for the return of her granddaughter

Vladimir - An older man that once served on the Imperial Court. He is working alongside Dimitri.

Dowager Empress Marie - Mother to the former ruler of Romania, grandmother to Anastasia. She is currently in Paris, offering a reward of at least 10,000,000 rubles to whomever can find her granddaughter.

Ironav - The traitorous man responsible for the death of most of the Romanov family. He will stop at nothing to ensure that his curse is fulfilled.

Some lesser roles include:

Sophie - the lady-in-waiting (and first cousin) of the Dowager Empress Marie (grandmother to Anastasia)

Bartok - Ironav's servant, a cowardly bat.

More roles can be added, but these are the most important for the moment. If anyone is interested please let me know through a PM

Otherwise I'll be sending out invites =^^=

Heart don't fail me now
Courage don't desert me
Don't turn back now that we're here
People always say
Life is full of choices
No one ever mentions fear
Or how the world can seem so vast
On a journey to the past

Somewhere down this road
I know someone's waiting
Years of dreams just can't be wrong
Arms will open wide
I'll be safe and wanted
Finally home where I belong
Well starting now I'm learning fast
On this journey to the past

Home, love, family
There was once a time
I must've had them too
Home, love, family
I will never be complete until I find you

One step at a time
One hope then another
Who knows where this road may go
Back to who I was
On to find my future
Things my heart still needs to know
Yes, let this be a sign
Let this road be mine
Let it lead me to my past
And bring me home
At Last

I was just looking at Russian things and trying to think of a good character background.

Also, Dmitri is beautiful.

Does the guy at the end still turn into an evil magician with superpowers who gets stopped by the hero? (I can't remember how)

I remember a circus too.

And the dancing scene on the boat. Yeh, I saw the movie.

 

[TearsoftheWorld]

He was a magician at the beginning of the movie

 

[ChasNicollette]

He masqueraded as a holy man, but in truth he had bartered his soul to The Devil in exchange for power.

Kind of like that guy in "Hellboy."

(Hay, waitaminnit.)

A Theme For Dmitri

Coldplay - "Viva La Vida"

I used to rule the world
Seas would rise when I gave the word
Now in the morning I sleep alone
Sweep the streets I used to own

I used to roll the dice
Feel the fear in my enemies eyes
Listen as the crowd would sing:
"Now the old king is dead! Long live the king!"

One minute I held the key
Next the walls were closed on me
And I discovered that my castles stand
Upon pillars of salt, and pillars of sand

I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
Be my mirror my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field
For some reason I can not explain
Once you know there was never, never an honest word
That was when I ruled the world

It was the wicked and wild wind
Blew down the doors to let me in.
Shattered windows and the sound of drums
People could not believe what I'd become
Revolutionaries Wait
For my head on a silver plate
Just a puppet on a lonely string
Oh who would ever want to be king?

I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
Be my mirror my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field
For some reason I can not explain
I know Saint Peter won't call my name
Never an honest word
And that was when I ruled the world

Hear Jerusalem bells are ringings
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
Be my mirror my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field
For some reason I can not explain
I know Saint Peter will call my name
Never an honest word
But that was when I ruled the world​
