Ahhh, no worries, just wanted to be sure! I'll see if I can't get to work on a post later! Need a break for some dinner and stretching my legs after the behemoth spar post; Zeke finally got me in a situation I couldn't write a post on my phone: having to frequently reference two Google Doc pages, lol

Quick Posts for Busy Folks! (yeah, that same idea we had in the shoutbox a month ago!)
In an effort to get a bit more Rp going with less of a time commitment, the following ideas are meant to be done in roleplays where posts are no longer than 5 sentences (not counting repeating someone's dialogue). No minimum limit this time, instead we're imposing this upper limit! There's plenty of places for us to wax long and poetical, but these stories are meant to be quick and fast, with no pressure intended or otherwise to write more. All prompts are meant for 2+ players, the more the merrier but hopefully at least a pair of us can see it through to the end! Feel free to chip in your own ideas here or in the shoutbox!*
We thought it was a good idea. We hid in the gatehouse after dark in a clever ploy to snatch some of the cookies out of the school room cookie jar, but now we are out past bedtime! Even worse, its not quite late enough for growbeasts to be asleep. Let's get back into the dorm without being caught! But if it's not too much trouble...could we stop by the kitchen real quick for some fizz to wash the cookies down?
- Bird watcher? No, bird WRESTLER! Those ducks have been swimming on the Abbey pond for last time! We must find a way to get rid of them! Gah! Why do they keep just flying to other parts of the pond?! FLY AWAY! Huh? Why are we doing this? Ducks are evil of course.
- Somehow it happened, nobeast can really explain why or even less how, but you ended up on the roof with your friends. There have been many stories about heroes getting on and off the Abbey roof, pick one and quick!
*This paragraph is five sentences and took three minutes. See? You can do that too!

No minimum limit this time, instead we're imposing this upper limit! There's plenty of places for us to wax long and poetical, but these stories are meant to be quick and fast, with no pressure intended or otherwise to write more. *looks up from a sixty-three thousand word document* Is this a callout post? Scandal! On monile so formatting is off, but other Dibbun RP ideas include: - Sooo apparently swords can break? While Skipper had his back turned while showing the dibbuns Martin's famed sword, you accidentally knocked the red stone out of the pommel. Find some way to fix it, or replace it with something else quickly, before any of you get caught. - It's time for a treasure hunt, and everyone's favorite Redwall Meme: riddles. The Badgermum has given everybeast a series of riddles to complete a scavenger hunt, to keep them busy during a rainy day. (Would require someone to actually write the riddles though and uhhhh... Not it!) - Nameday is coming up, and honestly who decided to let the dibbuns put on a play? Unfortunately, it was much more fun to turn the tables into forts than study your scripts, so it's time to wing it! Get a least a polite smattering of applause, or your days as an actor are over.

I know this thread is old, but hey, still serves a purpose!
Not sure how this would work (or even IF it would) but I have a semblance of an idea which might be fun. So, my guy Stanwick didn't grow up at Redwall Abbey, meaning he can't interact with other characters as dibbuns... unless we bend the time line a little! Obviously it probably wouldn't be "canon" or whatever, but I thought it'd be fun to have Stanwick be a caregiver to a bunch of rowdy dibbuns. Lets me flesh out his character in a fun and light hearted manner. Would be fun to see how long he lasts

Cog that's the cutest I've ever heard. XD Let's do it! Don't worry too much about canon, DAB plays fast'n'loose with it. Because I mean, we can have a dibbun RP going at the same time as an adult RP, so it's not linear at all! It's one of DAB's little quirks. :3

I hope this is the right thread for this - but throwing a plot idea out there! Idea 1: Cluny vs. Dibbuns
While the dibbuns didn't have as much presence as I recall in Redwall aside from Silent Sam & Tim n' Tess(?), imagine if the DAB dibbuns foiled one of Cluny's plots! Bit of adventure bit of fun bit of danger oh my! If Cluny was foiled by bees and honey in one of the cartoon eps (forgot if it was in the book too?) then I think the dibbuns can come up with something clever! Or maybe they go on a stealth mission to the camp to commandeer something. Who knows! I can also throw in my oc Sister April as background NPC if the dibbuns need an adult for any situations haha. Idea 2: Urban Exploration
Reviving my RP suggestion from waaaay long time ago ( 2018?) with our dibbun characters all grown up and going on an urban exploration adventure to the ruins of Loamhenge. (or some similar Mossflower ruins!) Idea 3: Lost Legends of Redwall inspiredNot sure if anyone's ever played the Lost Legends of Redwall: The Wildcat Scroll mobile game. But it was really entertaining and hit all those fun elements of riddle puzzles and mystery and action suspense and a jolly good Redwall feast. (perchance this sounds like a combination of ideas 1 + 2? ish?) Happy to hear everyone's thoughts, ideas, & suggestions!

Hoho! Nice ideas, Jasmine! Really like how you reflected on Cluny getting attacked by bees! And Cog, that's a great idea as well! What makes my brain wonder is why Dibbuns in the Redwall universe are always so rowdy about everything...

Nice ideas! Villain foiling I think could be pretty fun, though I think we'd need a nice controlled plot to make sure everything is moving forward, since there are a lot of moving parts! Cluny would be fun, I'm also a big fan of doing something Mossflower themed around Tsarmina-land (and that's WAY before DAB technically was around) sneaking around Kotir like Ferdy and Coggs. Just a bit of light time travel. Urban adventures? Wasn't that a QUEST?! I still remember how it started This one would be easier, though I think there's got to be a direction to all our characters wandering around I'm always a fan of adult RPs (I know, heresy on a dibbun site) I haven't played that one...have you played the Escape the Gloomer? I guess that would be close to my response to your first idea about sneaking around Kotir.

Thanks Baron & Celebes! Definitely agree with Celebes that with the Cluny plot thread there'll need an established plot tbh I love plotting as much as RPing so I'm always here for that! Also I LOVE the idea of Mossflower-themed during Queen Tsarmina's reign!! (time travel yes!) > Urban adventures? Wasn't that a QUEST?! & haha yes urban adventures was a quest! I remember too how it started (!) tho I completely forgot where we left off plot-wise haha... maybe it's worth reviving/restarting? (also equally guilty of enjoying RPing adult rps XD I like how DAB now supports both options!) > have you played the Escape the Gloomer? Ohh! I have Escape the Gloomer downloaded on my phone but haven't played it yet.

Celebes, remind me if Brian Jacques mentioned it, but is there a word for "adult" in Redwall? Only young/old word I remember was Elder or Dibbun.

Jasmine Mossflower is my vote! That is my favorite setting Baron Chall Wattson Let's see, I am not sure if they are ever referred to anything else besides their profession or name, like brother or sister or abbot. I think if they are ever referred to in general, it's "grownbeasts", at least that is what I say in here when playing as a dibbun.

For a second I read that as "growndibbun" ! Well, they basically are, right? I also like Mossflower's setting, but I don't mind anything else! As long as it's a good story..

I would be all game for an urban exploration in Loamhenge; Stanwick loves exploration, would be nice for him to get to know some people

I enjoy adult RPs more than dibbun ones so does that make me twice as guilty?
Always love a good ol' exploration and exploitation of ruined real estate...! Tsarmina's Mossflower sounds great too. Cameo!Gilig from Escape the Gloomer time to teach you all about the any different verbs you can use to describe 'jump' yet none of them will be correct...! Would that be adult or dibbuns then?
Also there is no adult beast - you go from dibbun to Elder, which is just a dibbun with more wrinkles
And lastly, an older suggestion for the quickies caught my eye: *Duck wrestling* Sounds fun and I can just imagine famous animated ducks making cameos there as they step into the aquatic ring!

A dibbun with more wrinkles! I couldn’t have said it any better, Fyri! I also enjoy Adult roleplays, but both is fine! Just gotta get warmed up for any roleplays I may join.. it’s been a while. Oh, and duck wrestling? Sounds amazing! When you mentioned animated ducks making cameos, I just thought of The Redwall TV show! Very entertaining of course!
