Märchen
children of the lists of myths
a germanic halfblood clan
c. 1600
Genesis
this is the beginning and the end. the rise and the fall.
our gait will begin its saunter at the source, when the infant learns to crawl.

A long, long time ago in a land far, far away there was a prince — or was it, maybe, a princess? — and a spell, meant to be broken by true love's first kiss before a clock struck midnight. Or... was it the last petal fallen of a fading flower, and the truth of enchantment revealed in a magic mirror? The tapestry of our fable has worn thin over time, and the threads tangle so. None of which, in the end, really matters, because the enchanted dreamer was never awoken, the castle fell, a dragon took up in the moat, and wondrous riches became ruin. But the curse (and the cursed) remained.


Though what that was, now, none could really say; for the pages of this tale are scorched, touched by the fires of the witch hunts of medieval Europe. And what hasn't been lost is faded, diluted much like their once distinguished vein of wizarding blood. A diaspora, that no doubt contributed to their inter-marrying with muggles, the practice of which is now quite commonplace within the Family.


It is commonly believed that the appendixes of their beginnings can be traced to Eastern Germany or further Slavic regions, but the living blood of its branches has long since rooted out westward, stretching across the Continent as far as Britain and France.


With, in many cases, so little to their name, coupled with their matrimonial misalliances (in more pedantic, pureblood eyes) they're a family whose status has met with mixed reactions within Wizarding society — leading to what is a very diverse, saturated and fragmented family. The core of kin so long since diluted, the most common source of connection is of "cousins" (of the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, etc. degree).


Nonetheless, the head of this Family (one S. Märchen) manages to keep in contact with various chapters, and string together an amorphous series of footnotes into something more cohesive. With one stipulation: a story can never truly change its name, for by any other word is that its nature, and to be recognized by the Family, one must forever keep the surname Märchen.

adopt(f)ables
PLEASE READ: We request that any player wishing to adopt a family member prove activity by having been on site for at least one (1) IC term. You may place a "claim" for the adoptable you're interested in in the thread below, but it's preferred that you prepare the character application before creating an account for them. The nature of the Family is such that there's ample room for you to have freedom when it comes to the background of your character, and it's not required you strictly adhere to the prompts given with any adoptable. If you have any questions, please PM Wolf Märchen & Swan Märchen.
a footnote
REGARDING THE FAMILY TREE: View here. A rough estimation of each family unit's relation to each other (unless otherwise stated) can also be sketched out as follows, with Briar as our static point:
1st Cousins: Briar, Rose, Snow
2nd Cousins: Swan
3rd Cousins: Cinders, Pearce, Goldie, Goose, Red, Wolf


Basically, you can gauge the degrees of cousins by how far back they share grandparents! grandparent = 1st cousins, great-grandparent = 2nd cousins, and so on and so forth.
Briar Märchen | m. , 14 - 16 yrs | taken
suggested fc: adrien jacques, chris overgaard


“You're a reckless and romantic rogue, your head is in the clouds.”
Parents: Aurore & Endymion Märchen
Siblings: Rose Märchen
Thorns, of any sort, deter you not. Impressively, your charm survives these many scrapes – perhaps due to your benevolent heart. Bold but not brash, bravery is your greatest asset. But all dreamers must wake.


Rose Märchen  | f. , 11 - 13 yrs | taken
suggested fc: luca hollestelle


“We simply planted the seed, and nursed it through the winter.”
Parents: Aurore & Endymion Märchen
Siblings: Briar Märchen
Yours is a wistful, sweet optimism of the rarest kind. Due to that, your mischievous nature catches others off guard. Castles and towers aren’t for you; the crowns you dream of are those you want to win yourself. But all dreamers must wake.




Snow Märchen  | m. , 13 - 15 yrs | taken
suggested fc: vadim grishaev


“You had a life of privilege, hope, and love. But now that's all gone.”
Parents: Boreas & Eva Märchen (both deceased)
Siblings: n/a
There is some part of you that is broken. It might be your heart. And that will heal, you know, in time. Simplicity sustains you, an affinity that tames the wilder things that walk by your side; a shield that stands against the avaricious jealousy which flanks and shadows. But all dreamers must wake.


Aleida Märchen  | f. , 37 yrs | taken
suggested fc: andy nagy


( A Märchen Original, penned by Rin Hunter! )
Parents: Clément & Hanne Rosenfeld
Siblings: n/a
Pre-Est. Relations: Snow Märchen (step-son)
The cavern that once harboured a heart, yours, drives you on a path of self-destruction—ravens pick apart your twisted self. Bound to a soul as fragmented as your own, monsters tear apart anything that can resemble love. You stand above time with beauty that defies your years and a mind laden with secrets; it's impossible to forget nor forgive. But as mirror shards draw ribbons from your palms and teary eyes obscure what once was, ask yourself—who's the fairest of them all?




Swan Märchen  | m. , 15 - 16 yrs | taken
suggested fc: timur simakov


“Yet we curb our speech because words are not enough.”
Parents: Leda Märchen, father unknown
Siblings: n/a
Words are wind, and you can feel it moving under you; winged beneath your skin, your hopes and wants are wordless. You follow a song no one else can hear because they do not bother to listen, and sleep speaks in tongues you lack during your waking hours. But all dreamers must wake.




Cinders Märchen  | f. , 16 - 17 yrs | taken
suggested fc: eliisa raats


“She requires riches, recherche, riding with rodomontading roues.”
Parents: Midas & Ella Märchen (deceased), raised by Alice Märchen (grandmother)
Siblings: Pearce Märchen, Goldie Märchen, Goose Märchen
Your hands are stained from the embers on the floor, and you’ve had enough. Supping on only wishes, you’ve grown wan and pale. And beautiful, too; do not forget this, for you can use it. All you stand to lose are childish fantasies. But all dreamers must wake.


Pearce Matthew Märchen  | m. , 14 - 16 yrs | taken
suggested fc: callum ball


( A Märchen Original, penned by Ronnie Jay Beckham! )
Parents: Midas & Ella Märchen (deceased), raised by Alice Märchen (grandmother)
Siblings: Cinders Märchen, Goldie Märchen, Goose Märchen
Perfection is key, a ball-and-chain weight at your ankles.  You drag it around as shackles, a responsibility.  The moon pulls at your eyes, controls them, refuses you the peace and rest you begged for.  The storm drowns your hope, but you deny yourself falter.  You are strong.  You are graceful.  Above all, you are perfection.  But all dreamers must wake.


Goldie Märchen  | f. , 11 - 13 yrs | taken
suggested fc: evelina voznesenskaya


“Pull the strand to satisfy the need to compose, this entire naive glow.”
Parents: Midas & Ella Märchen (deceased), raised by Alice Märchen (grandmother)
Siblings: Cinders Märchen, Pearce Märchen, Goose Märchen
You have never waited your turn for anything, for you have always known your own worth. This you hold high, and what you deserve is not easy to come by. Some call you stubborn, but let’s be frank: you get what you want… even if it gets you into a few mishaps. But all dreamers must wake.


Goose Märchen  | f. , 8 yrs | taken
suggested fc: kaegan baron


( A Märchen Original, penned by Mavis Lerner! )
Parents: Midas & Ella Märchen (deceased), raised by Alice Märchen (grandmother)
Siblings: Cinders Märchen, Pearce Märchen, Goldie Märchen
Hickory Dickory Dock. The mouse ran up the clock. The clock struck one and the mouse jumped, rambling about lunch and sandwiches and my she really wanted  a sandwich but not with tomatoes because tomatoes are icky. Jack and Jill ran up the hill to fetch a pail of water. When the pair arrived they met a child, soaking wet from the buckets of well water she’d tossed about and in deep conversation with the well and an invisible rabbit named Darla. Humpty Dumpty had a great fall and a child came with him, giggling as she leaped from the brick wall. She frowned at the scrapes on her knee, but she smiled at the ripped stockings, fro the best stockings were the ones that you could fix by yourself because she had lots of string to sew with and her favorite was the yellow one but it was really short and it might not seal the hole, what do you think Abel? Abel, the imaginary little boy with a love of the sun and the girl, shrugged. The child shrugged back, and skipped away, an army of imaginary people beside her, a song sprouting from her lips and drifting into the air in a clear, childish voice.


The clock struck two, a song starts anew, Hickory Dickory Dock.




Bette Märchen  | f. , 8 yrs | taken
suggested fc: brooklyn proulx 


( A Märchen Original, penned by Icarus Argabright! )
Parents: Gabrielle & Leo Märchen
Siblings: n/a
Closest Relations: Cinders Märchen, Pearce Märchen, Goldie Märchen, Goose Märchen (1st cousins)
The locks on her bedroom door, they said, were for her own protection. The chain fastened at night, they said, would keep her safe. Bette learned early that this was only true when she and their so-called security were on the same side. They never were. She threw a headless doll at the door. Mother said the girl would grow up a strong woman. Father said the girl was not a girl at all. And she would not let them down.


Suppose it was fair to contain a child heralded by broken lamps, followed by torn curtains, and having no idea as to the whereabouts of her mother's diamond necklace. Suppose it was fair, when sometimes a flicker of guilt struck her and she snuck out to rectify her tantrum, but only made it worse with tape and glue and a niffler she'd caught during eighteen hours' disappearance in the woods. Suppose it was fair to contain a little goddess of ruin.


She had only wished to dance that day. As she had only wished to wear a velvet cape and to grow a tree of white stones the days before. They took away the niffler when they found it after the necklace again. His name was Long John Silver, and he kept all her secrets. Is this how the world treats us?


She couldn't be trusted with other little girls. Pulling hair and throwing mud on dresses. She'd give chase when they cried -- she hated it when they cried. She hated that they flinched when she reached to dry their cheeks with her mud-caked fingers. If she touched them, they cried louder. They called her a brute. A bully. A beast.


And she would not let them down.


Gaston Märchen  | m. , 37 yrs | taken
suggested fc: clive standen


( A Märchen Original, penned by Eira Rhycw Medraut! )
Parents: Alice Märchen
Siblings: Midas Märchen
Closest Relations: Gabrielle  Märchen (wife), Bette Märchen (daughter)
Gaston simply reveres the strongest and the boldest. He wants to be the next head of the Märchen family, regardless of how far down in line he is, husband of Gabrielle, father to Bette.  Working as the head of gringotts security by trade, he has built his own fortune on the back of under handed deeds and 'looking the other way' situations whilst still affirming tyrannical approach to others less fortunate than the rich.  From his childhood Gaston was taught that  emotion denotes weaknesses -- thus he loathes weakness and the need to compete in every form of life was instilled on him. He looked down on those who he deemed lesser than himself, regardless of bloodline, and remains to this day as a keen advocator for the pureblood society




Charming Märchen  | m. , 16 yrs | taken
suggested fc: chad michael murray


( A Märchen Original,  penned by Circe Blackwood! )
Parents: Bella & Phillip Märchen.
Siblings: Frog Märchen
"The summer sun was not meant for boys like me. Boys like me belong to the rain." The romance of things is something to obsess over, the way to make a girl feel like she's the only girl on this planet. He walks with the style and grace of a prince not yet broken by a woman. A fresh love... A new love... A love that burns so deep."


Frog Märchen  | m. , 12 yrs | OPEN
suggested fc: michael cera (young)


( A Märchen Original,  penned by Circe Blackwood! )
Parents: Bella & Phillip Märchen.
Siblings: Charming Märchen
"I like you cause you're weird like me." Clumsily he walks, pushing up his glasses that are too big for his head. Weird was the word the people used. Weird was the one thing he had that made him happy. Loving anything he could without anyone bothering him about it. "




Cassandra Märchen  | f. , 19 yrs | taken
suggested fc: kaya scodelario


( A Märchen Original, penned by Joy Detora! )
Parents: Priam & Hecuba Märchen.
Siblings: Paris Märchen (NPC, 16)
Your eyes burn and your fingers are cramping but you are still feeling, and you know that only the piano can talk for you. The music winds on and you look away from the mirrors and the decks of cards. You are imperfect, fragile, too sharp and too unfocused, too perceptive and too distant, too much of a contrast. Your thoughts are flying away again. But all dreamers must wake.




Ali Märchen  | m. , 13 yrs | taken
suggested fc: laurence coke


( A Märchen Original, penned by Jamie Duncan! )
Parents: Salazar Märchen, mother unknown
Siblings: n/a
A swindler, a hustler, a good for nothing brat. Based on the thief of Lamps. None shall flee and fly as free as this boy. He knows your secrets, and hoards them like coins.


Knows the streets as if they were his hand.


None looks kindly on the imp of trickery. None favors the rat of the streets.


It's just simply easier to live as a neer-do-well than meet every individual's expectation. Living for yourself is the true form of living.




Hans Märchen  | m. , 13 yrs | taken
suggested fc: alex lawther


( A Märchen Original, penned by Lyra Spencer! )
Parents: Jacob & Wilhelmina Märchen
Siblings: Greta Märchen
He stopped at every village, every hamlet, every house and hovel he passed along the way to ask if they had seen or heard anything of his sister,, Gretel. But no one had.


"You mean Gretel, the old woman?"


"No, my sister."


"Gretel, my sister's baby?"


"No, my sister. And she's not a baby."

"No!"


Greta Märchen  | f. , 13 yrs | taken
suggested fc: ella purnell


( A Märchen Original, penned by Lyra Spencer! )
Parents: Jacob & Wilhelmina Märchen
Siblings: Greta Märchen
For a moment she stopped and considered following the rain's advice. But then she shook her head. "You're being foolish," Gretel told herself. "Rain can't talk."


No, of course it can't. The moon can eat children, and fingers can open doors, and people's heads can be put back on.
But rain? Talk? Don't be ridiculous.
Good thinking, Gretel dear. Good thinking.




Robin Märchen  | m. , 19 yrs | taken

( A Märchen Original, penned by Lyra Spencer! )
Parents: Klaus & Isolde Märchen
Siblings: n/a

Veronica Märchen  | f. , 14 yrs | taken

Red Märchen  | f. , 15 - 17 yrs | taken
suggested fc: alina kovalenko


“There was a boy who shared your bones, your eager blood, your affinity for love.”
Parents: Hans & Sarah Märchen
Siblings: n/a
They bid you not to stray from the path - but you did. They chided you never to share speech with strangers - but you did. Dauntless, willful child – maybe it’s you they should be afraid of. Someday, maybe, you may cast down a veil of superstition as you do these other things. But all dreamers must wake.




Wolf Märchen  | m. , 16 - 18 yrs | taken
suggested fc: anton lisin


“Chasing 'bout my head like the wolf that found the sheep.”
Parents: Eponine & Drake Märchen
Siblings: n/a
It’s hard to say if you sit uncomfortably in your skin, or if it sits just as unsuitably on you. Someday you may grow into it, yet for now you wage war upon yourself. The weapons which wound come disguised in eyes and mouths. And the shadow you stalk is the only one you find rest in. But all dreamers must wake.




Ophelie Märchen  | f. , 23 yrs | OPEN
suggested fc: melanie thierry


( A Märchen Original, penned by Lucifer Morgenstern! )
Parents: Aberforth & Muirín Märchen
Siblings: Ondine Märchen, Odette Märchen
From the water she came and to the water she will return.


In the beginning, water gave her life. She rose from the depths wailing and soaked to the bone, a siren torn from the waves and tossed to the beach. The sand stole the droplets from her skin and the sun left her parched and brittle. Every step away from the ocean feels like knives through her feet, but she continues to walk. Because she knows all things are ephemeral. In the beginning, water gave her life. In the end, water will inevitably take her life back. 


Ondine Märchen  | f. , 19 yrs | taken
suggested fc:lea seydoux


( A Märchen Original, penned by Lucifer Morgenstern! )
Parents: Aberforth & Muirín Märchen
Siblings: Ophelie Märchen, Odette Märchen
Never stand with your back to the ocean. Waves are pitiless, and take indiscriminately: do not tempt them. Strong currents will rip your feet from the ground and carry you out to the sea while your screaming lungs fill with salt and water. They have no pity, no forgiveness, and certainly no regrets.
Odette Märchen  | f. , 15 yrs | OPEN
suggested fc:christa théret


( A Märchen Original, penned by Lucifer Morgenstern! )
Parents: Aberforth & Muirín Märchen
Siblings: Ophelie Märchen, Ondine Märchen
The waterline is narrow. Veer off-track and you are greeted by vicious waves that foam at the mouth or dry sand that burns the soles of your feet with bright red blisters. But in the middle, the ground is  soft and cool and nurturing. Crabs red as rubies scuttle among rainbow seashells as the last remnant of a wave laps at your toes. Balance is key to finding that narrow stretch of paradise. But safety is impermanent. Tides come and go, and one day the currents will catch up to you.




Dove Märchen  | f. , 20 yrs | taken
suggested fc: josephine skriver 


( A Märchen Original, penned by Calla Douglass! )
Parents: ---
Siblings: --
Coming Soon!!!




Elsie Märchen  | f. , 21 yrs | taken
suggested fc: diane kruger 


( A Märchen Original, penned by Sylvia Renn! )
Parents: Fredrick and Alicia Märchen
Siblings: n/a
The bells ring around me, and I shall dance to their song.


She walks lightly, talks softly, and smiles freely. She runs quickly, screams harshly, and looks behind her. She rides her own emotional highs and lows, and loves every bit of the way. A free spirit in every sense of the word, Elsie laughs in the face of those who call her clever and mature. A professional face, nothing more. No, she is much more comfortable running through the grass and falling into the streams.


Elsie can typically be found writing songs while sitting in a tree, or humming a melody to the chords she played on the piano. Dancing in a field to some song that popped into her head, or on her way to her mundane job she keeps to pay the bills.


Her goal: Bring and spread the joy she thrives off of.


The bells ring around me, and I will play louder.




Blu Märchen  | m. , 17 - 19 yrs | taken
suggested fc: alexander ferrario


“Dream with your eyes closed, try and pluck the pearls from your bones.”
Parents: Heloise & Eamonn Märchen
Siblings: Blanche Märchen, Noir Märchen
Intention is a weighty thing when it comes from your fingertips, extension of a nature chimerical. What you strive for never quite fits the composition envisioned, and has a disconcerting habit of devolving into the chaotic.  There may be – you think – something you’re forgetting… But all dreamers must wake.
Blanche Märchen  | f. , 18 - 20 yrs | taken
suggested fc: idda van munster


“'Cause the unrelenting constancy of love and hope, will rescue and restore from any scope.”
Parents: Heloise & Eamonn Märchen
Siblings: Blu Märchen, Noir Märchen
Some would say you lead a charmed life, but that’s a naïve statement. Everything comes at a cost, and you’ve always known this. In the exchange comes balance, scales that shift with every step. Your shadow is a heavy burden, and some secret part of you hopes it won’t always be yours to bear alone. But all dreamers must wake.


Noir Märchen  | m. , 21 - 23 yrs | taken
suggested fc: matthew bell


“Watch out for the wicked ones who call themselves beloved ones.”
Parents: Heloise & Eamonn Märchen
Siblings: Blu Märchen, Blanche Märchen
There are ends written to every story, and you know them all, though you have never seen a word. They are creatures of ruinous purpose, much like you, and so you understand each other. You know your enemy; its lulling stupor, the symptoms of it settling on those around you. But all dreamers must wake. And it’s time for you to wake them.
