Salutations,
Before I go ahead and write this up, I already ran this by Storybrooke and got the go ahead. However, I would like to see if everyone is interested in my idea. So if you like it, leave a comment and let everyone know that you're game. I would like to have all the major characters involved as I'm seeing this as being like a half-season story line. However, since it's made up, it's obviously going to be an AU story line. The main antagonist is a made up character in which I've wanted to make for a while. I'll be making him in the next few days. Since I'm going to be busy tomorrow, it's up in the air whether or not I'll be able to make him until the 16th.
Once upon a time, there was a guy in love with a girl. Just like the start of every story. Their love was one that could rival even the great Prince Charming and Snow White. But they weren't nearly as famous. Leo was the duke of a small kingdom within the Enchanted Forest. His kingdom, however, was against the Evil Queen's rule. So why didn't she crush his kingdom? Leo made a deal with Dark One in order to keep Queen Regina's wrath focused on other things than his small corner of the Enchanted Forest. As everyone knows, all magic comes with a price. Which was something Leo was completely aware of. But Rumpelstiltskin must have had an off day as Leo found a loophole to get out of his deal. He promised something to Rumpelstiltskin the greatest treasure that his kingdom had known. Wording, wording, wording. His kingdom's greatest treasure was an undying moth that could continue to provide babies to make silk. Silk being his kingdom's main export. However, the magic didn't lie in the moth, it resided in the magic of the room it was contained in. When Rumpelstiltskin brought the moth back to his own castle, it died. Furious, he went back to kingdom and attempted to punish Leo for lying to him. However, Leo had a copy of their contract. Bound by his deal, the Dark One agreed to keep up his end of the bargain. But as everyone knows, the Dark One isn't one to be trifled with.
In a fit of rage, Rumpelstiltskin went to the Evil Queen to inform her of the deal. After much discussion, the two of them agreed to cast a curse on the duke. On the night of his wedding to his one true soul mate, Leo was cast with a curse. The Curse of The Grey Fox. As soon as someone stopped looking at him, they started forgetting him. The conversation, what he was wearing, and even his face. By the morning of his wedding, his soul mate didn't even recognize him. And soon, his people didn't remember him. The curse was so great that even the Rock Trolls didn't remember him. Shamed, he left his kingdom and started heading towards Regina's castle. However, just as he rode towards her kingdom, the Dark Curse swept up his kingdom and started spreading over the land. To get away from it, he found a portal jumper and disappeared into a different land. And there he stayed, forgotten by everyone he came in contact with until he was able to find another one. A portal that would lead him to the land that his beloved resided in. Storybrooke...
The story would take place after the first Dark Curse was broken. There would be magic in Storybrooke and everyone would have their memories back. Except that no one would remember him. Because his curse wasn't broken. However, he wasn't about to give up on his happy ending. And he's going to get his happy ending, no matter what he has to do.
The way it would play out is that he uses blackmail and other nefarious methods against The Charmings and the gang in order to force them to get his soul mate back. The curse can't be broken except for the one way all curses can be broken, true love's kiss. But wait! How can he get that when his true love doesn't even know who he is? Has Regina gave this young woman new memories on who she would be in love with? Can true love prevail to turn his icy heart warm again? Or is he doomed to be cursed in misery forever?
Thanks for sticking with the story until the end. I figure this gives everyone potential plot ideas to work with in the subset of an over-arching story. And I would love it if everyone could get involved. After I make said character, I'll put a wanted ad up for his soul mate. So if someone wants to take her, he might just be able to get his happy ending. Anyways, let me know what you think!
Also, would you mind putting what characters you control that would be interested in being a part of this plot. Thank you.
