I perfectly understand why you wouldn't want to change her age, so you may keep it. While I may have to think out about the whole entire runaway-but-came-back thing, I like the idea of a bastard child... Though there's something that I've watched from one of those Tudors movies that we could do... You know, because Henry just loves getting around -- something that... I forgot which Tudors movie this was, whether it was Elizabeth or the Tudors series, but a scene where Elizabeth and Mary were getting moved out or to a new place, but I forgot the reason as to why... I feel like that was the Elizabeth movie, but she would end up taking the queen role anyways after Mary passed, so.

That, or I can just give you the queen title or bump my character to a princess like yours, thus having only one ruling seat of the time, but I don't think it was set up to be like that... -grumbles- Such is going to give me a headache...

Well, the thing about a princess running away (with the assumed era in mind) the princess would most likely have been dishonored and the name of princess would have been taken. Or they would've killed her if she did decide to come back, but that is the crueller punishment.

The bastard wouldn't have been named a princess unless there was no other heir to be coronated. In those cases, the bastard would step in (example is Elizabeth of the Tudor Era although she was technically not a bastard) and become a queen.

The best thing to do is to just lower the age. Thus no conflicting issue on changing the bio or anything else. Those are just my thoughts, though.

Or being a princess of a different kingdom could work too. I am sorry for the inconvenience.

If you saw my earlier post, ignore it...I hadn't seen your latest posts...she could have been legitimized but not been named heir to the throne...that has been done in the past, and her character...it doesn't work with someone younger. And you can't take the title of Princess away...not after her father is dead unless her brother did it but that would be on your prerogative Touhoure.

And Elizabeth Tudor was the eldest daughter of the last King...King Edward I believe, who married Henry Tudor to end the War of the Roses...she wasn't a bastard but a legitimate heir even though she had younger brothers...and if we're going to be super technical about it...doesn't the line get passed along to the male anyways? Even if she was older it wouldn't have been given to her because she isn't a male. And the King always names the Queen or Queen Regent...doesn't he?

Just to make everything easier, I'll just make my character a princess and we won't have to worry about this.

Hmm. I've actually considered Macbeth and his weapon to be two separate entities connected through the sword's power.

I will scrap out the sword's ability. I agree that it's quite powerful, and making this guy an overpowered is the last thing I want to do. However, I will not scrap out the concept of the background involving both Macbeth and his sword, because it's a pretty important aspect to him.

I am adding an additional "Personality" trait to (sorta vaguely) explain how Macbeth will act in the roleplay. Also, I've removed "Unknown Ice Magic" and put in a new one. I did my best to keep the new ability unnoticeable during most cases of combat.

Consider the new ability to be the closest reference that'll pay homage to Shakespeare. And as usual, feedback is appreciated.

Oh, you don't have to get rid of the sword in the story at all! I like the back story, honestly. And the little bit of Shakespeare reference too. I'll double check with my co-GM to see if she's approves.

How did you not expect me to somehow incorporate the Beatles into even my RPG life.

Why would a Queen be crowned when there is a son to take the throne? That's the piece of the argument that I don't understand here. Unless Michael is incredibly liberal for the time period, the oldest son is the heir.

So there is King Auberon on the spot for that.

Next up, two more questions that may or may not have an impact on the RP:
1. Can sentient weapons exist as their own character? A demon or angel (or maybe even human) that was cursed/transformed/something-ed into a sword or similar.
2. Is there anything preventing a demon from living among humans?

Actually, I'm going to add a third. Touhoure, as you may recall the Hunters each had a gem in their weapons. For the Cursed, it is a gem that senses demonic power, for the Blessed it is an angelic one. Is that still acceptable?

From what I can gather, there is always a King and either a Queen or a Queen Regent...she would be the Queen Regent until the King got married and had a Queen

1) As cool as that would be, I can see a number of character-abuse in that. I feel very unsure.
2) The only thing preventing demons is how a kingdom's society or group feels about demons. Some demons can try to blend into human society, but once their secret is it, it would depend on how the people of the village, town, or kingdom feels to determine the fate of the demon. Some would be cruel and annihilate the creature, while others may be accepted under certain rules.
3) Sure, but then again... I guess that is an ability, but it's so small... How would you feel if other people were able to get gems like that on their weapons?

Why does this role play always find a way to just wear me out? I wish I could just fall over without getting hurt X'D

When you didn't restrict anything, we wore you ragged. When you put up restrictions, we question you ragged. The fact that we're so absorbed in this means we love it, though. So thank you, both for an awesome RP and for being such a fantastic GM.
EDIT: I wouldn't mind. I'd probably prefer it.

If there is a queen or queen regent, it would be your character Kaalee.

Oh god that's kind of you TaroAndSelia -- -falls over into your arms-
-dies-
-cues in-

And perfect. It'll be like in RPGs where you have sockets and you can enchant the weapon by putting in the enchantment into the weapon -- the weapon should be made with a socket spot though, so perhaps it'll be something fancy and made by a special blacksmith

“Put a knife in his hands and he’d drop it. A real waste of great expectations.”
Ezra
26//Angel
Servant of Michael
Heals others in exchange for some of his health, and a strong sense of morality.
There isn’t much to be said about this man; He’s as kind a man as one would ever meet; He prefers to keep the company of himself and to others, but is easy to socialize if the time comes. He prefers to stay a pacifist, and usually takes whatever blows are dealt to him without a fuss (unless it is unjust). Overall a very submissive personality unless it comes to something he believes firmly in.

Alright, I just finished my profiles. I'll toss them up along with accepted profiles* and if you weren't added, it's probably due to one pet peeve or some that I'm just going to state bluntly because I got some other stuff to do.

*Okay, I may end up tossing up the majority since you all are accepted. However, I will be leaving some notes that should be paid attention to. Even with my notes and me throwing you onto the board of characters in roles and stuff, if Wisp speaks up, you should probably follow her word too. And you should probably thank her for that; she has a lot better eye for anything that seems too OP than me...

And can I just give you guys a moment to redirect your attention to Lucifer's army -- he has Shakespeare and Poe on his side you guys better run.
