Okay, this RP will be based on American McGee's Alice, which is set when Alice is roughly 18. Her parents were killed in a house fire when she was younger, and Alice has gone insane. She is later institutionalised, and when in the asylum, is drawn back to Wonderland by the white rabbit. Wonderland has changed considerably since her last visit, and Alice must kill the Queen of Hearts to return Wonderland to normal, and regain her sanity. The trailer for the game is here. www.youtube.com/watch?v=IzsuJhyq_jESo, we'll be basing it off that, making our own original characters to explore this twisted Wonderland. Also, might I add, that the Cheshire Cat and the White Rabbit are good characters, although the cat prefers to help Alice along with dark riddles. So, despite the Cheshire Cat looking evil, he's actually good.

Cool... Just a couple of rules I would like to mention.
1. Human characters only, please. It would be less confusing as to what can happen or not. They will be normal humans with human limitations. 2. The characters get to Wonderland by being invited to a fancy dress party in a large mansion. I'll control the NPCs for that first post. 3. Due to the nature of their method of getting into Wonderland, characters must be in costume.
That is all.
Be warned though, it could get gory.

A large man wandered through the empty mansion. He looked around at his surroundings and sighed, his tall, crooked top hat threatening to fall off. He poked his bulbous nose through the curtains, and saw a group of oddly dressed people outside. He smiled thinly to himself.
This is going to be a most excellent tea party! I'd best invite them in, tea is best taken like clockwork!
He pulled back the curtains, shedding some light onto the dark interior of the room. On one wall is a giant mirror, which, somehow, reflected everything but people. A man could stand in front of that mirror in a crowded room, and see the walls as clearly as if there was nobody there, for there was nobody there... To be shown in the looking-glass, you would have to step through it...
Mr Madd, the large, crooked fellow with the large, crooked hat smiled to himself as he spied the large stuffed rabbit. He had done it himself, the stuffing, the mounting, the labelling... The killing.
The plaque below the stuffed rabbit read "The March Hare".
The bent old man walked slowly from the room, and opened the door to his mansion, to greet the visitors. It had been so long since the last visitor came...
"Hello! Welcome to my home, my name is Mr Madd, and I would like to welcome you to my land of wonders, my wonderland, if you will..."

Outside the house, Dan waited in the midst of the crowd. He had come dressed in his pyjamas, for a laugh. He wished he hadn't though, as the cold wind chilled him to the bone. He tried to strike up conversation with other people in the crowd, when at last the door opened. Standing there was an old man, hunched over, with a strange suit and hat on. He looked like a mix between a gentleman and a homeless person, and he had a strange glint in his eye.
The man spoke to them all.
"Hello! Welcome to my home, my name is Mr Madd, and I would like to welcome you to my land of wonders, my wonderland, if you will..."
Dan looked at the man strangely... Mr Madd? Wonderland? What a strange name, and term for a house. Dan was one of the first to move towards the door, encouraged by the thought of warmth inside. Dan walked up to Mr Madd, and smiled at the old man, wondering just why he had started this party...

Gwendoline smiled to herself. She just wished she'd brought a better umbrella, the one she had was full of holes... She double checked her map, shivering in the cold, she hadn't brought a jumper, it hadn't occured to her that she might be cold. "There it is!" She gasped, a huge crowd of people murmering to themselves and to each other, waiting for the door to open. Her lips twitched in an obscure lopsided smile that made her eyes glint with clouds of uncertainty. "This should certainly be interesting..." And ran, her spindly legs pounding the grassy moors.
