Lhivoria has housed the five main families for as long as anyone could remember. Ainsworth, Hyland, Gully, Coulbourne, and Bouroode. Each family has had their own important role to make the land flourish and grow in to what it has now become. Though many battles have occurred, and secret alliances have been made for the most part all of the people lived in harmony.
Our story takes place on the day of a large festival that will be held in honor of the princess for coming of marrying age. She is the only daughter of King Samson and Queen Margaret and has been welcomed very openly by the people of the kingdom. During this event one suitor from each of the families will be chosen to compete in a competition for the hand of the princess for a future wedding.
Unbeknownst to our characters, sometime during the festival King Samson will be murdered by a mysterious man sent from the Diovire Desert. The kingdom is put into a fury as the mysterious man is searched for. Many people will be accused and sought after, as Madeline's mother tries to balance the kingdom as well as the life of her daughter who now has a kingdom placed into her lap.
Our characters will be from one family. The Hyland/Sky family of Mount Promonon. You will need to figure among yourself how you are all related. I encourage someone who will be dedicated and active to take the lead roles of "King" and "Queen" of the Hyland family. You may use bastard names from any of the areas, but must be related to the original family in some way or some how, and you live with your father in your ruling area.
You are allowed as many characters as you can handle, as many will find their fates at the end of a sword.
