Hey Poptropicans, this is a guest post by Shy Scorpion. Enjoy!
Hi Poptropicans! It’s Shy Scorpion here with the next part of my fanfic. If you missed part 1, part 2, part 3, part 4, or part 5, be sure to check them out. Now let’s get to it!
“The Princess and the Raven”
Scene continued from previous: Rumpelstiltskin has just walked into Red’s Pizza Basket. The girls look at him angrily.
CINDER:
Man, how does he do that?!
RUMPELSTILTSKIN:
Do what?
CINDER:
Enter a room at the perfect time.
RUMPELSTILTSKIN:
(shrugs) Just lucky, I guess.
AMELIA:
What are you doing here, Rumpelstiltskin?
RUMPELSTILTSKIN:
Here to see you realize my perfect plan is laid into action.
CINDER:
Dude, first you took away our happy endings, then you crashed our ball a couple months ago, after that you sent that adventurer kid all over Poptropica looking for the king, and now you’re crashing our girls’ hangout. Have you NO shame?
RUMPELSTILTSKIN:
Nope.
AMELIA:
How about telling us your perfect plan then?
RUMPELSTILTSKIN:
I will let that remain a mystery. But let’s just say I would be VERY afraid of what’s coming.
AMELIA:
Well if you aren’t going to tell us your plan, then as an official adventurer and as the owner of Home Island, I now arrest you in the name of Poptropica.
RUMPELSTILTSKIN:
Really? How are you planning on doing that? Throwing pizza at me, tying me up with a rope?
AMELIA:
Nah, I can see the dwarves are coming back from their walk with Snow’s wolf Pepperoni. I remember you guys had a GREAT run-in last time.
RUMPELSTILTSKIN:
(visibly frightened) Did you say P-Pepperoni?
AMELIA:
Look, here they come now!
Dwarves enter the diner with Pepperoni. Upon seeing Rumpelstiltskin, the wolf lets out an excited bark and tackles him to the ground. Rumpelstiltskin flails under Pepperoni’s licks before throwing the wolf off of his body and getting up.
RUMPELSTILTSKIN:
(snarls) This isn’t over.
Rumpelstiltskin disappears in a poof of purple smoke. Everyone high-fives and pets a very proud Pepperoni.
LATER… after everyone is full of pizza, the Poptropicans go their separate ways. But Amelia pauses to talk to Snow White.
AMELIA:
Don’t worry about Rumpelstiltskin. Bad guys always come and go.
SNOW WHITE:
Yeah, I am just worried about what’s coming… while the queen might be our greatest hero, she could also be the worst villain Poptropica has ever seen.
Hope you enjoyed Part 6 of The Princess and the Raven. Tell me your ideas on it and your theories for who you think this “Queen” might REALLY be in the comments below. Bye! 👋
Hope you enjoyed this guest post by Shy Scorpion. If you did, you might also enjoy The Villain Saga, which inspired this fanfic!

No matter if or how you celebrate the American holiday, it’s always a good time to give gratitude. Here at the PHB, we’d like to take the opportunity to thank you, our readers, for being with us in all of Poptropica’s ups and downs. Your passion keeps us going! 💙
“Happy Thanksgiving from the Baron’s family to you! The Baron was away this November but returns next week with some Grapple-Pap goodies!”
We’re not entirely sure what the story is behind this Thanksgiving pic shared on Poptropica’s socialmedia, but it sure gives us something to speculate about!
While an earlier Creators’ Blog post mentioned the Baron was off-Poptropica visiting friends and family, the new post mentions “the Baron’s family”… along with some familiar characters from Fairytale Island. Could the Baron be its true queen, whom the king and prince fear so much? We do see the statue of the queen from Rumpel’s Challenge with remarkable curls, and we’ve also never seen what’s under the Baron’s fluffy hat… then again, perhaps she’s just a distant relative of the royal family? What’s your theory?
Also, what are those Batman-shaped heads lurking ominously in the background? And just what is Rumpelstiltskin doing in the turkey??
Maybe time will tell. In the meantime, enjoy the weekend!
Another thing to celebrate: November’s costume contest winner has been announced, and the next fan-made design to be distributed at the Baron’s will be a Dr. Hare inspired costume by Maroon Moon!
Don’t forget we have a chance to vote for one of the previous winning designs to return next month! Head over to the Creators’ Blog to cast your vote before Sunday, November 29 at 8 pm PST.
Now mix all of the above themes and you’ve got Poptropica’s latest Instagram stories, with a Pop poll and doc doodle:

That wraps up this post! Happy feasting, Fairytale fantasizing, or just finding fun and felicity whatever your circumstances may be. Thanks for popping by, and see you in the next one!
This island goes way back — and not just in the sense that it’s the first Poptropica island ever. The 8-bit characters are definitely old-timey, and reflect the pilgrims who settled in what became America. While only one half of the island is designed like this, the Pop Art museum also has you meet artists from the past, such as da Vinci and van Gogh.
Remember this one? This island is one of my favorites. It’s based off of Mary Pope Osborne’s Magic Tree House series, and has you go back in time to the Edo period of Japan with Jack and Annie. However, instead of being set in the past from beginning to end like Early Poptropica, you first arrive in the present before the tree house sends you to Old Japan a little later.
Not only is this island full of mystery, it also puts you way back in time–to 1893, specifically–and has historical figures around every corner. From Nikola Tesla to Susan B. Anthony to President Cleveland, this island is definitely an island set a long time ago.
This one’s a good example. It shows both time travel to the past, what with the medieval knights and all that, and futuristic technology. Though it was a good mix of the two, I think it was set more in the past, just with items of the future.
This one may be just me, but doesn’t it kind of seem like Super Power is set in the future? Think about it. Radioactive meteorites giving regular criminals superhuman powers, anti-power handcuffs, and everything else. I guess it’s more sci-fi than anything, but don’t you think it could also be futuristic? I mean, who knows what could be invented in the near future? Anyway, it seems possible that it’s in the future.
Yes, Mythology Island! Puts you back in time to when the gods walked among mortals, as the legends would have it. From the design of the buildings to the way people are dressed, you can see this island is set back in Ancient Greece.
Shrink Ray, the island where you get shrunk by an evil teacher! While I suppose it doesn’t really seem like time-travel since it looks like a modern town with modern stuff, it gives me a sense of the future. Shrink ray guns have been talked about since forever, and the fact that it exists here makes it seem like the island is set in the near future, perhaps.
Being modeled after the fall of the Titanic, when I played this one it kind of seemed like we were had gone back in time to experience this bit of history. While it could have been in the present but just similar to something from the past, the Titanic connection makes me think S.O.S. should be considered an island with time travel.
People have been obsessed with finding cryptids since forever, but the ones we spot on this island have yet to be confirmed in our IRL timeline. Actually finding them here hints at what could happen in the future. I guess this one’s kind of a long shot, but it’s still remotely related to time travel in my opinion. It’s not just me, is it?
Of course this one! Visiting eleven different time periods from the past! That’s a time travel island if you ask me. I bet everyone expected this one would come up on this list. Come on, this island is the most related to time travel ever to appear on the map.
So, how do you like it? Ten whole islands that take you back in time. That’s a Poptropica trend for sure. Maybe the next Dream Island, Secret of the Jade Scarab, will also have time travel. We’ll see. Until next time!

I don’t know about you, but I’m a big fan of Rick Riordan’s Percy Jackson series, so I decided to make a Pop-over (Poptropica crossover) of the three main characters: Percy, Annabeth, and Grover. They’ll be based on how they look in the movies, not the books.
First, here’s Percy Jackson. Get the hair, shirt, and pants from New You (Home Island on the Poptropica app), use any type of PopGum for the mouth, and don the sword, belt, and collared armor top from the Templar Knight costume. (Try glitching for specific parts!)
Next is Annabeth Chase. For her top, you can use the Costumizer on the lady eating on top of the convention center in PoptropiCon: Ep. 1. Snag the bow and quiver from the Robin Hood costume, the pants from the Pumpkin Smash costume, and hair from the Winter Girl 3 along with bangs from the Prom Queen costume.
Last but not least, here’s Grover Underwood. Get his horns and hair from the satyr in Mythology Island, jacket from the Fall Fashion 2 costume, shirt from the Novice Adventurer Outfit (from the Home Island quest), and pants from New You (on the app).
And that’s that! Hope you liked my Pop-over on Percy Jackson.
