Fairytale ideas
- Superhero Concept: Based off of the idea that Rose Red and Snow White are the good little girls who help others, make them, along with the bear, a superhero trio that takes place in a fairytale world. They would be young adults, like early 20’s, and the bear would be massive, hulking, and bestial. Maybe the bear could even be a druid? The dwarf would act as an anti-hero or villain figure that is out to destroy the trio, but ironically, the trio would constantly be saving the dwarf from death. Think Batman and Joker relationship status.
- Mirror Image Concept: This concept is based in the magic users. The girls would now be magical twin sisters who are sent out on various ‘mission’ by their witch mother. The dwarfs are hunted by the girls as the dwarves are used in many of the witches’ spells and potions as reagents. The bear would act as the bear’s consort. He would be a terrifying intermediate to the witches’ enemies. He would also not be completely unaware of his human side, but transformed by the witch to remain cursed as a huge beast.
- Future Concept: Imagine the twin girls as adults living in the year 5067 or something outrageous like that. They are hostages at birth because they are part of a 100 year prophecy. It was foretold that humanity would be saved by twin girls, one with hair and eyes as white as snow, the other as red as a rose. They are genius level scientists, one a robotics engineer, the other a surgeon and chemist. They are known to the oppressive government as project snow/rose and are hunted for their DNA and technologies. The bear could be many things, maybe the last bear on earth? Maybe a creation of the twins? The Dwarf could be the military leader. Perhaps a small, bulky creature created by the government, or the head of the government himself.
- Musician Concept: Taking this way far off into left field here. It would be interesting to see this concept used as a fantasy band concept. Almost Metalocalypse without the brutality and blood. I would also imagine them performing avant-garde techno or something like that. The clincher would be the plot: The girls are a duo that rules the underground and black market, but front as super star musicians. Probably a pretty modern setting, maybe a few years into the future. The two girls would have hyper- advanced tech that they
- Separated at birth Concept: This would take place in fairytale lore. The twin girls are predestined rulers of all of the land and bear mystical marks on their bodies, but their greedy, older brother sees to it that he is the sole king. In the night, he murders his mother and father, but can’t bring himself to kill his baby sisters himself. He brings them into the forest and gives one child to a passing dwarven merchant, and the other he leaves at the mouth of a huge bear’s den. Both adopt the respective twin, and raise them as two completely different people. The prince, assuming his entire blood-line dead, announces his right to rule and becomes an evil tyrannical king for the next 20 years.
