#dark parables the detective

Uh... hello there Goggles Mcgee, I'm a fan of dark parables, And I adore your rewrite of the plot for Dark Parables 8. I was wondering if your up for reworking the plot of game 13? Requiem for a forgotten shadow. as I tested the game with the Beta and was really interested with it,after both hearing it's one of the worse, and seeing what when wrong, I'm interested in how you would end things for that game. (Thank you for reading and have a nice night!)
ANOTHER GAME THAT IS ON MY NOT FAV LIST
It's not bad, but honey, it ain't great.
I will admit I was severely disappointed with this game, and it's purely because of the plot. Mainly because I was expecting a very different tale to be the inspiration behind the case. Like I know, it was taking inspiration from The Shadow by Hans Christian Anderson and I'm all for less known tales being given the spot light but at the same time, the games themselves are based off of very popular tales so it was a weird pattern change. What is a famous story about a lost shadow? One that many people know?
For me, I immediately think of Peter Pan.
I would have done a mix of the two considering just how loosely based the game was on The Shadow, I would have ditched the whole Brotherhood and Shadow God plot because honestly it wasn't very engaging and didn't feel like the past games. I can't quite explain it, but it didn't feel like a Dark Parables game. It was a cool game, but yeah...
Anyway on to the new plot!
People's shadows are still being stolen, and they are left as basically husks of their old selves, but it seems to be only adults who are affected by this strange illness. But that's not the only tragedy that has hit the town. Multiple young boys have gone missing and even a couple of young girls. No one thinks the things are connected, but the Detective does.
While investigating, she runs into a man named Petrus, who runs an orphange. He's very worried over the missing children, especially those who disappeared from his orphange and begs the Detective to help find them. He says he doesn't have many leads, but he noticed the children spent a lot of time near the port. Of course, the Detective goes to investigate and ends up witnessing some children board a ship. She runs to stop them but she gets knocked out by a man.
On board the ship she has been taken prisoner on, the Detective meets Hadwin Othmar Oberon Koehl, captain of the Shooting Star. He accuses her of being a spy and basically says he won't be letting her out until he makes sure the cargo is safe and sound. The Detective escapes the island they stop on and makes it back to the village in order to inform Petrus of the children she saw.
They both make their way to the island, and Hadwin is pissed. He and Petrus battle and Hadwin's crew come to his rescue but here's Dark Parables favorite thing, the twist villain! Petrus pulls out a ring and steals the shadows of some of the crew. Then he opens a star shaped portal where kids dresses like warriors come out and steal the other children before going back into the portal. Petrus laughs and the portal closes with a bang and The Detective and Hadwin pass out.
They awaken, and Hadwin explains he was trying to help the kids who were scared of Petrus escape him before he tried to get evidence of him being the Shadow Thief. The Maiden Goddess appears before them and tells them of the ritual Petrus is attempting to perform that needs shadows and the souls of innocents in order to regain his youth. The Goddess begs the Detective to put a stop to him and opens a portal for her and Hadwin.
The two are now in Neverland (or in case of copyright, some Shadow Realm equivalent) they embark on their plan to rescue the kids and put a stop to Petrus. The Lost Warriors try to stop them all the time so the two now must sneak around. Hadwin goes to rescue the kids while the Detective goes to stop Petrus with the bits of the Glass Wand the Maiden Goddess gifted her but it turns out that was the final part of the ritual that Petrus needed to finally start.
The Detective is blasted into a lagoon (used to be mermaid lagoon where we see Easter eggs of the little mermaid), she escapes and thankfully Hadwin was able to get some of the children away but not all. They go to hide and stumble upon the Fairy Kingdom. The Fairy Queen senses the Detective is a friend of the Maiden Goddess and tells her her own past with Petrus when he was just a boy.
He was a descendant of the Shadow (the one from The Shadow). Descendants of the Shadow have shown to age slower than most humans and thus grew an obsession with youth. Petrus was no exception to this. He was popular when he was young. People were kind and never caught on to his manipulations, but once he started aging, he grew angrier, bitter. So he sought a way to return his youth and found a ritual in one of his ancestors' old journals.
The Fairy Queen spoke of how she was fond of Petrus until she found out his true nature. She looked through the journals too and knew how to stop him, but they needed to trap his own shadow within a lantern made from the Bolide Shard.
The Detective and Hadwin do this, and it's a battle to stop Petrus, who keeps trying to convince the Detective to join him. Doesn't she want her youth back? Think of all the good she could do if only she reversed the clock!
It's all futile and the Detective and Hadwin save the day!
Of course throughout the game there are nods to the next!!
Literally I would change everything. XD

Inspired by the previous reblog, the idea of the fairytale detective being non-human would be fun to dive into since we don't have much of a backstory on her. The possibilities are endless.
She could be a cryptid.
Perhaps an eldritch construct sent by higher beings to restore the balance of magic.
She may even reveal herself to be a forgotten deity, far more ancient than the gods and goddesses she has helped in the past decades, awakened by the increasing irregularities of magic.
Maybe she's already dead and was replaced by a superhuman android built by the detective agency she worked at to keep a better hold on the volatile world of fairytales, because, I swear, the detective was not the same since Eipix took over lmao.
Perhaps she's the incarnation of humanity's collective yearning for the magical and fantastic, which is why she has such an affinity for the supernatural when those fantasies turn out to be real.
Maybe she's a changeling, an infant swapped at birth and grew up drawn to the songs of the brook, the whispers of the wind, and the calls of the forest in the middle of the night, all of which easily fly past the attention of others.

y'know what would be funny if the fairy tale detective was a cryptid that is human passing. (possible spoilers for jack and the sky kingdom, and more rambles under the cut)
like when Jack is first interacting with the detective he is like 'oh another human dealing with all this weird magic bullshitery' and then a little bit later he turns to talk to det and just sees eye glow for half a second but it's so brief he questions whether or not he saw anything, and then they meet back up with Emma and she notices it too, and they're both like wth?? do the ask the detective about it? absolutely not! that would be so awkward... cut forward a little to a unspecified adventure and the detective needs a ladder for something and is hanging out with Gerda and company, and they find a ladder and Gerda turns to the group and is discussing working together to move the ladder to where they need and turns back to see no ladder?? the detective is just standing there where the ladder was waiting for Gerda to finish talking. when they get to where they needed the ladder the detective seemingly just pulls it out of nowhere and places it against the wall. the detectives allies/friends now have bimonthly meetings (provided the worlds not ending) trying to figure out wtf the detective is and where they came from and who old they are, because they are weirdly spry after at least 20 years dealing with weird magic stuff.

Detective what has to be your favorite place that you've been to on your cases and what was the worst place also what was your favorite case to slove? ((OOC- what has to be your favorite dark parables game?))
Oh goodness, I don’t know if I could pick a least favourite out of all the places I’ve been to. As for my favourite, there’s so many, but if I had to pick only one, I suppose that would go to the Kingdom of Floralia. It was so gorgeous there. I think I’d also have to pick the pollen case as one of my favourites, again if I had to pick only one
[OOC: This is really fucking late, nonny, I’m really sorry. I haven’t played past game nine -- dishonour on me, dishonour on my cow -- so of the ones I’ve played, my favourites are games 1, 4, and 7]

My design of the Fairytale Detective! In my AU, she is the older sister of my version of the Master Detective.
Tumblr media
[Image ID: A transparent digital drawing of my version of the Fairytale Detective, Vivienne Madwell. She has tan skin, shoulder-length black hair, and red eyes with bags under them. She wears purple glasses and black lipstick. She has a scar across her nose and a flat expression. She's also wearing a leather choker with a blue stone in a gold setting. Her outfit consists of a brown jacket, a white button-down shirt, a purple skirt, brown platform boots, and black gloves. Her name, 'Vivienne Madwell', and her pronouns, 'she/her', are written next to her. A signature, a stylized A_G, is above her shoulder. End ID]

All dialogue options for Halsin's request for a story for the children in the epilogue
There are generic options, unique options for Durges, each Origin, and even for Origin paths (I.E. Justiciar Shadowheart vs Selune path Shadowheart) so I thought I'd collect them all here! There are some nice characterization moments here, and I love Halsin's reactions to some of these. (Also, I had no idea Gale could still ascend to godhood as a mindflayer? Or at least there's dialogue for it here...) I hope you guys enjoys these!
All characters/Tav:
Regale Halsin with tales of your past six months.
Halsin: You have kept yourself busy - I expected no less, in truth. I shall be able to keep the children enthralled for a few more nights yet, thanks to you. And should you wish to retell of your exploits in person? Well, I shall not object to a night off.
All characters/Tav:
The truth may be a little flat. Spice it up a little. (This triggers a skill roll for deception)
If the roll succeeds:
Halsin: You are truly incapable of disappointing. The children shall be rapt - and have no fear; all due credit shall be given to the tale's originator.
If the roll fails:
Halsin: Hmm, do I detect a certain... exaggeration? You could give Master Geddarm a run for his gold - though I suppose he has little need for it now, Oak Father bless him. In any case, my audience will favour a good tale over veracity any day - I thank you for your offering.
Any character who accompanied Karlach to Avernus:
Halsin: I am glad you and Karlach have an enduring friendship - it shall serve as a strong lesson for the children, as well as a stirring tale.
Any player who became a mindflayer:
My exploits have been limited by my new form. I live as a pariah, feared by most.
Halsin: Yet not by me. I shall tell the children of your heroism and sacrifice. They shall know what they owe to you, trust me.
Mindflayer characters who have plans with the Emperor:
I have been dwelling far from the public eye. Yet the Emperor and I have grand plans in motion - that I cannot speak of.
Halsin: Too murky for a children's tale, I fear. Perhaps I should focus on the hero you were, and the sacrifice you made. But thank you for sharing, nonetheless.
Mind flayer characters who are allied with the Emperor:
My new form demands discretion. I have been amassing power in the shadows with my ally, the emperor.
Halsin: I see. Perhaps the children can learn something from your ambition in the face of adversity. Thank you.
Mindflayer characters who killed the Emperor:
My exploits have been limited by my new form. I live as a pariah, feared by most.
Halsin: And with an appetite for the grey ambrosia that dwells within every skull, I presume? Perhaps I shall remind the children of your heroism and self-sacrifice... and skip over the brain-eating until they are older.
Dragonborn Dark Urge:
How about a ghost story? A spectral dragon who will haunt the little ones' dreams, if they don't behave.,
Halsin: Most enthralling - though perhaps it may lead to some sleepless nights for the younger ones. I can make something palatable with a little showmanship and creative licence - thank you.
Any Dark Urge:
Tell Halsin a detective story, where in the end, the intrepid Fist discovers they had been committing the murders all along.
Halsin: A touch bleak perhaps, but considering the amount of orphans in my audience, I am sure they shall manage. I can make something palatable with a little showmanship and creative licence - thank you.
God Gale:
Recall the parable of the Yearning Orphan, your youngest follower and already a great prophet spreading your doctrine...
Halsin: You are truly incapable of disappointing. The children shall be rapt - and have no fear; all due credit shall be given to the tale's originator.
Also God Gale:
Tell him of the tribulations of godhood. The politics, the bureaucracy, the endless prayers to answer...
Halsin: Well luckily for you, mortals have a habit of embellishing their run-ins with gods... I am sure I can muster something to captivate the children from what I can glean of you.
God Gale:
Well, I have developed a taste for togas, for one thing.
Halsin: I am glad you have kept yourself occupied. No doubt I will be able to spin a few yarns from the children from this. Thank you.
Mindflayer God Gale:
Well, I've been doing my best to not frighten my followers. I'd hate to be one of those gods.
Halsin: I am glad you have kept yourself occupied. No doubt I will be able to spin a few yarns from the children from this. Thank you.
Non-god Gale who went back to Waterdeep:
I've been researching the tale of the first Blackstaff, Khelben Arunsun. My abridged notes would make for a fascinating bedtime story.
Halsin: I see... well I trust your sources, of course. Perhaps the historical record can survive an embellishment or two, for the sake of the children. In any case, you have my gratitude.
Non-god Gale who didn't return to Waterdeep:
What haven't I done? Delved into dungeons, read secret tomes, taken out a rogue shadow mage or two. Enough magic and mystery for a treasury of tales.
Halsin: Why, Master Dekarios, I had no idea you would continue to stoke the fires of adventure. I commend you - as shall the children, once they hear of your exploits. Thank you.
Dark Justiciar Shadowheart:
Tell Halsin of how you consolidated your power over Lady Shar's church, purging the disloyal with bloody vigor.
Halsin: My. Perhaps a tale for the older children, once I trim off a few of the... less savoury details. But thank you, all the same.
Also Dark Justiciar Shadowheart:
I have been continuing to serve Lady Shar however I can.
Halsin: You are stalwart, even in service of darkness. There will be a lesson there for me to impart to the children... with a few details glossed over, perhaps. Thank you.
Selune path Shadowheart who killed her parents:
Tell Halsin of how you've roamed far and wide, now that you are free of Shar.
Halsin: The shadows were concealing a true adventurer's heart then. Thank you - the children shall be rapt.
Shadowheart whose parents are alive, whether Selune path or Dark Justiciar:
Regale Halsin with tales of your tranquil life with your family and coterie of animals.
Halsin: Yes, I thought I caught the scent of a wolf upon the wind... the children shall love this, but be warned - they may insist upon a visit.
Selune path Shadowheart:
I have been forging my own path, away from Shar's influence.
Halsin: I shall be honoured to speak of you to the children. To embrace change as you have shall make for a stirring example. Thank you.
Any path Shadowheart:
I've been at something of a loose end - roaming and adventuring as I see fit.
Halsin: Countless tales have begun with a roaming adventurer - I am sure I shall keep the children enthralled for years to come with your exploits. Thank you.
Orpheus path Lae'zel:
I have ridden a red dragon to battle as a Warrior of the Comet. The lich queen Vlaakith will fall by my hand.
Halsin: Oak Father preserve you - I hope you have a tight hold on the beast. But this shall make for a most stirring tale for the children. I may even have to tone down the details, for fear they get too excited...
Lae'zel who stayed in Faerun:
I have travelled the harshest lands of the Sword Coast, piercing the hearts of the lich queen's countless assassins.
Halsin: Ha! I think some of the more bloodthirsty children will relish this, thank you.
Wyll who became a Grand Duke and made an eternal pact with Mizora:
I embraced my hellish side and dedicated my life to rebuilding the grand city of Baldur's Gate.
Halsin: The makings of the multi-night epic. The children shall rush to their bunks in order to hear the next chapter, thank you.
Wyll who became a Grand Duke but didn't continue his pact with Mizora:
I turned from my hellish past and dedicated my life to rebuilding the grand city of Baldur's Gate.
Halsin: A noble calling. Your tale shall inspire a whole generation. Thank you.
Wyll who stayed the Blade of Frontiers and made an eternal pact with Mizora:
The Sword Coast is safe as ever thanks to the Blade and his infernal powers.
Halsin: The classic tale of the Blade, but with a twist? This shall go down very well with the children, I sense. Thank you.
Wyll who stayed the Blade of Frontiers and ended his pact with Mizora:
The Blade of Frontiers is back on the hunt. The Sword Coast is safe as ever.
Halsin: Many of the children have already heard of you, as it were - do you know some of them scarcely even believe this old bear could be acquainted with such a hero? But the authentic sense that your recollections bring to the tale shall win them over, no doubt. Thank you.
Wyll who became the Blade of Avernus and made an eternal pact with Mizora:
No hellbeast is safe from the Blade of Avernus and his infernal powers.
Halsin: Thank you, the children shall be agog. I do believe some of them use the number of beastly fangs and claws present in a tale as the yardstick for its quality - which puts yours right at the top of the heap.
Wyll who became the Blade of Avernus and but ended his pact with Mizora:
The Blade of Avernus is on the hunt. The Hells shudder at the very mention of his name.
Halsin: A classic tale. I expect it shall inspire more than a few of the children to start practising their ripostes with wooden sticks.
Wyll who became the Blade of Avernus, made an eternal pact with Mizora, and went to Avernus with Karlach:
The Blade of Avernus and his companion are on the hunt. No hellbeast is safe from his infernal powers.
Halsin: A formidable duo. I am glad that you and Karlach have each other - it shall serve as a strong lesson for the children, as well as a stirring tale.
Wyll who became the Blade of Avernus, did not make an eternal pact with Mizora, and went to Avernus with Karlach:
The Blade of Avernus and his companion are on the hunt. The Hells shudder at the very mention of his name.
Halsin: I am glad you and Karlach have an enduring friendship - it shall serve as a strong lesson for the children, as well as a stirring tale.
Astarion who didn't ascend, but defeated Cazador:
I've been revelling in my freedom, rediscovering the joys of the night.
Halsin: Sanguine joys, no doubt? Perhaps I shall smoothen out some of those details - the children do not need to know the full truth of your diet. But they shall be rapt all the same, thank you.
Astarion who didn't defeat Cazador:
Halsin, I've been hiding in sewers and eating rats. It's not a glorious tale.
Halsin: Ah, but the glory can be found in the telling. The children love tales of underdogs, facing odds most unlikely. They shall appreciate your story, trust me.
Astarion who didn't defeat Cazador and became a mindflayer:
Halsin, I've been hiding in sewers and eating rats' brains. It's not a glorious tale.
Halsin: Ah, but the glory can be found in the telling. The children love tales of underdogs, facing odds most unlikely. They shall appreciate your story, trust me.
Ascended Astarion:
My tales are a little heavy on murder and sex. But if the children want to hear them...
Halsin: Hmm. Perhaps I can substitute the bloodlust and... eh, general lust for cuddles and animals in the retelling. The children may be confused, but no matter - they will soon be asleep. Even with a few little white lies, rest assured that they shall be engrossed. Thank you.
Ascended Astarion who became a mindflayer:
My tales are a little heavy on murder, sex, and tentacles. But if the children want to hear them...
Halsin: Hmm. Perhaps I can substitute the bloodlust and... eh, general lust for cuddles and animals in the retelling. The children may be confused, but no matter - they will soon be asleep. Even with a few little white lies, rest assured that they shall be engrossed. Thank you.
Karlach who went to Avernus alone:
Tell him of how you lost your horn.
Halsin: Truly? I never would have guessed that is what happened. And to think I believed I had the measure of you... but I am glad to be wrong - the children shall be captivated.

Hello there Goggles! I was wondering do you still write for Dark Parables and Cursery?
Yes I do! I just get more asks about what I don't like about the games and such but I do still write for them and would like to actually flesh out a whole story for the Fairytale Detective and whatnot!
Like I def (because me as a player) have the Detective having a crush on Jack but knows it won't ever happen which is such fun angst. Because from like their small interactions you can take some of Jack's lines as wee bit flirtatious and I would heavily lean into that like both have feelings for one another but like Jack is still in love with Emma and the Detective knows that. So much fun angst to play around with! Especially when they reunite in Goldilocks and the flirtatious just come so easily but like again, Jack is on a mission for Emma so the Detective knows it'll never go anywhere and is always ready to help no matter how they feel.
I like thinking of happy endings for some games, even cases we never see in the games! I have a lot of ideas for Dark Parables/Cursory XD

Been making DP OCs in @artemhiss's discord server. One is a grumpy records officer/archivist who has a grudge against the Detective for always bringing back hard-to-store, magical memorabilia while also never getting her name right (Her name is Dee-Dee, not Cee-Cee or Kee-Kee or Bee-Bee or Gigi, Ms. Detective); the other one is an enigmatic peddler of magical wares who may or may not be scamming you, and lowkey treats the Detective like a golden goose (although she never succeeds in buying off the items the Detective takes with her once she wraps up a case) and can act as both a blessing and a curse in relation to the case depending on how greedy she was feeling that day.

Unlisted Fandom Challenge
Two days ago, at our last Unlisted Fandom Challenge update, we had a 3-way tie for first. Today? One of those fandoms has taken the lead AND a new fandom that hadn't had even a single signup before has jumped all the way into a 4-way tie for second. Your fandom could do the same, in the hours still left before signups close!
At present, our leaderboard looks like this:
7 Danny Phantom
5 Carmen Sandiego (2019) 5 For All Mankind 5 Tortall 5 Yu Yu Hakusho
4 Ace Attorney 4 Alan Wake/Remedyverse 4 Formula 1 RPF 4 Ted Lasso 4 The Goblin Emperor Series - Katherine Addison 4 The Stanley Parable
3 Greek Mythology/Religion 3 Buffyverse 3 Bungo Stray Dogs 3 Call of Duty 3 Detective Conan 3 Dragon Ball 3 HBO War 3 Kingdom Hearts 3 Persona Series: 3-5 3 Professional Wrestling 3 Realm of the Elderlings - Robin Hobb 3 Shades of Magic - V. E. Schwab 3 The Mummy films 1999-2008 3 Undertale
Given the way Carmen Sandiego came from *nowhere* to tie for 2nd place, a single signup really can shake things up! And for the next few hours, signups are STILL OPEN! Do the thing!

I do feel like I should note that from maybe day 1 of playing Dark Parables (and there's a definite chance this was unconscious projecting on my part) I've seen the detective as a trans man. I say unconscious projecting bc I hadn't come to the conclusion of transness yet. I also somehow completely missed that novelization in Briar Rose. so.

The concept of Fairytale Detective in the dark parables games is so funny it's like I signed up to the police force for valid reasons and now my superiors are all like hmm you have to break a curse. And I'm like hello? And they're like yeah listen there's an ancient witch trying to kidnap a prophesied maiden to take over the world. Go deal with her! You have NO magical ability and NO backup!!! I would simply quit and open a bakery
