Hello my dearies!

This is going to be the start of a brand new Fairy Tail fic that I am going to be working on! I'm super excited about this one because it is going to contain my first OC! I'll be writing her profile later in this little intro that I'm writing so I don't have to spend half a chapter describing her physical characteristics. This first chapter is just going to be a short little blurb about where I'm thinking of going with this fic and some background information on the setting and some of the characters involved. I'll be posting the real first chapter a little later today hopefully...

Title: Trial Testing!

Setting:

So! I'm thinking that this fic is going to be set in the year X795 (So about four years after the Grand Magic Games Arc). This is gonna be kind of tough to write because while I really want to keep the characters as true as possible to how Hiro Mashima would write them, there are some details about some characters that I'm going to have to 'ignore' in order for my story to go the way that I want it to... For example (don't worry I won't give away direct spoilers), in this fic the thing that Zeref mentions on the very last page of Fairy Tail Chapter 416 isn't going to be true. I really hate to change anything about how Mashima portrays the characters, but for this fic I'm going to have to unfortunately.

Events in the fic are going to be taking place in various towns and places throughout Fiore, with the majority of them taking place in Magnolia and Oak Town. You can probably guess some of the characters who are going to be in the fic from that haha.

Main Plot Theme

For the plot of the story I'm going to be going with an idea posed by the user lizzysakura21! lizzysakura21 posted a review on my main fic that said a fun plot might be to have the Fairy Tail and Sabertooth guilds get a joint job request from the Magic Council to test the limits of the next Grand Magic Games trials. So basically the council is going to be putting the two guilds through a series of vigorous tasks in order to decide what events should be in the next Grand Magic Games! I'll probably throw in some villainous character to spice things up a little as well.

*BONUS: Included Pairings!

- Sting x OC

Included Characters (rough list)

So here I'm going to have a rough list of all the characters that I'm hoping to have in the fic! There are going to be multiple pairings (for all you lemon lovers out there) and I'm really hoping to do a lot of work on how those relationships progress. At the end of this little list I'm going to give a little profile of the OC characters included!

* OC Character Profiles!

- Sabina Lupine

- Gender: Female

- Race: Human

- Age: 22

- Height: 5'3"

- Hair: Waist-length, honey blonde with light brown underlayer, worn down (sometimes worn up in a ponytail during fights)

- Eyes: Hazel

- Other Physical Characteristics:

* very busty

* heart-shaped face, still thin tho

* in excellent physical shape

* mole just below outside corner of right eye

* red guild make just below left collarbone

- Clothing:

- Short, black shorts

- White, v-neck crop top

- Ankle high black boots

- Red ribbons tied greek style around calves

- Silver bands around biceps

- Black choker with heart-shaped garnet pendant

- Small pouch attached to belt to hold sea salt for her magic

- Guild Affiliation: Fairy Tail

- Personality:

- Bubbly, very friendly, somewhat scatter-brained, very kind-hearted, a little clumsy

- Actually quite intelligent when she focuses

- Somewhat of a vixen when she wants to be, secretly a hopeless romantic, can be very handsy

- Easily annoyed

- Not easily embarrassed (will strip in front of other and not be bothered by being naked, although it isn't subconscious like Gray, she's just very comfortable with herself)

- Unpredictable when drunk

- Unknowingly puts herself into sexually awkward situations [For example: exposing lots of cleavage, bending over at inappropriate times, will walk around half naked, in cramped spaces gets squished up against Sting in very awkward ways, when hugging people (which happens very frequently) she squishes people's faces into her boobs or they get pushed up in a very obvious way]... In short she is a nosebleed-inducer

- Magic: Sea Dragonslayer!

- Differs from water magic in that the water used is salt water, meaning that it will have slightly different properties. Ex..won't freeze as easily, takes less energy to make the water hot, etc. To combat the issue of seawater not always being available to consume, Sabina (and her exceed) always carries a supply of sea salt. When she needs to consume her element to renew her energy she gathers moisture from the surrounding air into a large ball then mixes in the sea salt.

-Sabina is very loosely based on myself. Physically we are almost the same but she is in MUCH better physical shape than I am (I need to hit the gym before spring break...), and her hair is a bit longer than mine is. Personality wise, we actually aren't that different, except I'm a bit more modest than her...meaning I don't walk around naked and strip in front of people. Basically she's a more exaggerated version of myself! I'm really excited to write from her perspective, cause it's basically mine! She's the first OC that I've really methodically planned out so I'm really excited to see what ya'll think of her!

* Ulf

- Gender: Male

- Race: Exceed

- Fur: Golden colored, black on the tips of his ears and tail

- Eyes: Red

- Personality:

- More mature than Happy, but less mature than Lily

- Still enjoys pranks

- Very protective of Sabina

- Get exasperated at her obliviousness when she gets herself into sexually awkward situations

- Gets along well with Happy and Lily, doesn't pay Carla much mind but gets angry with her when she comments on Sabina's brashness

- Good friends with Lector and Frosch, Ulf and Lector trick Sabina and Sting into stumbling into awkward situations

Well there you have it my dears! I am so stinkin excited to get this fic going you have no idea... I would love to hear what you guys think about the details that I have revealed so far before I post the first real chapter! If ya'll have any suggestions for how I could tweak it to be more interesting for you guys I'd love to hear them! I'll try to post the first chapter sometime today if I can manage it!

Much love

Sabina
