Okay, basic plot:
The only daughter and heir to the throne of the now deceased (he was assassinated, but for now nobody knows this) king has taken the role of queen at just age 18. But even in her own palace, there lies corruption. Her own court is against her, expectations that she was unprepared for have been placed upon her. And of course, there is competition* between princes and dukes and lords and gentlemen for her hand in marriage, despite her objections to the very thought of it.
I will play the character of the queen, but first come first serve for her personal advisor. Basically, first person to call dibs will get the role. EDIT: Someone already called dibs, too late.
Rules:
- 21+ characters are preferred but if you want to make your character younger, check with me first, I will most likely say yes so don't be shy!
- You may have up to three (3) characters each (To start with, if you want to use more characters later on I might allow that, but it think these is good to begin with). This rule is obviously not applicable to side characters who randomly pop up or are just there to advance the plot, like the random duke who gets assassinated or the friendly merchant who literally only appears like, once.
- Shipping is allowed, but consent! Don't force another person to ship their character with your own.
- LGBTQIA+ is allowed, but please remember this takes place around the late 1700's/early 1800's so your characters will probably have to keep their sexual/gender identity hidden most of the time.
- Gore is allowed, but not 24/7 and please put warnings, kids use this site.
- You can make your character do something to another's character only with the other person's consent. That being said, don't make your character immune to everything. If they get punched hard enough to fall, let them fall!
- While smut/sexual interactions between characters is allowed, take it to the Private Chat or just skip over the more erotic bits entirely! There are children who use this place, and I want to keep them innocent for a bit longer because I don't want their parents to sue me.
- No Mary Sues, make your characters have flaws!
- No magic powers. Just no.
- Use proper grammer, spelling, punctuation, and just generally correct English or whatever language you people speak.
- Do unto otters** as you would have them do unto you.
- Same rules as we posted by our powerful and mighty Lord andrew (Our Supreme Lord and Overseer).
- Have fun!

Jeopardy! theme plays in background
(May I join as the personal advisor?)
(Oh hello, yes you most definitely may!)
(Thx! and can I be a prince?)
Erm….. I'd rather you not be……. Um…..
(It's fine! Can I be a knight then?)
(Hi! Could I possibly be a prime minister or someone else powerful? I kinda want to be the antagonist)
(Hi! Could I possibly be a prime minister or someone else powerful? I kinda want to be the antagonist)
Um, a the queen's advisor is technically prime minister (If you're loosely basing this off of actual history, which I am.) so someone in power, yes, like a lord or lady in her majesty's court I suppose but idk? Also, kudos to you, we do need multiple villainous characters so thanks!
Alright, sure! I shall be a semi-villainous, definitely antagonistic lady. Thanks!
(Hai, I'd love to join! Any positions you want added that I could do?)
(Hai, I'd love to join! Any positions you want added that I could do?)
Well, a member of the staff, such as a maid or butler or cook or one of the queen's personal attendants (Basically a maid who works specifically for the queen) or a lord or lady in the queen's court would work?
Name: Lady Evera Kyŏng-Bennett
Age: 46
Gender: Female
Sexuality: She claims to be straight, and she is married to a man, but she has a secret female lover named Rylie.
Appearance: Mildly overweight, strong, short black hair that's bobbed just above her shoulders in a very professional cut, dark brown, roundish eyes, fair, peachy skin tone, warm and motherly smile
Personality: She is extremely persuasive and very talented at subduing a crowd. She is smart, motherly, kind, and likable. She has a good sense of humor and is a master at small talk. She is quite professional, and at ease in most environments. It takes utter, uncontrollable chaos to actually stress her out –that, or the hint that her family or position is in danger. She would do anything to protect her reputation and her title.
Backstory: She was groomed for politics from a young age. Her parents taught her to value control over all else. Because of this, she is obsessed with controlling everything and doing what's best for everyone, regardless of if they agree or if they don't. She fell in love with Rylie and has been forced to keep it a secret, so she married a lord for power and for appearances. She has strong opinions on such a young queen, but is more passive-aggressive and underhanded than anything.
Flaws: She is domineering, narrow-minded, and condescending. She feels she has to be in control of everything. Although she cares for others, she is quick to forget her empathy "for the greater good". She is extremely underhanded and treacherous, and will do things behind your back if the situation calls for it. She's got a sharp tongue, and is incredibly passive aggressive in her dealings with others and her insults.
Fun fact about them: She has one daughter, who she is raising to be politically powerful.
Role: She is a highly ranked Lady of the queen's court.
Weapon: None. She prefers to use her words. In any dangerous situation, she relies on guards or runs away.
Other: She loves birds.
Ok! If I'm a personal attendant, can I still be somewhat important to the storyline? Not to be selfish or anything, but I would like to still… Yaknow… Exist

Everyone's characters are important to the plot as the story doesn't specifically revolve around any specific character, although my character (the queen) is rather important (and this is not my ego, it's just the fact that she's the motherhugging ruler of the whole country so she would be pretty important.).
(Are you going to put up a template of the queen?)
