[OOC] In the Court of the High Queen

[Major Sharpe]

Was thinking about haveing him be the son of a chiefton whos clan swore a blood oath to the king and to protect the crown for a promise of trade or peace maybe

@ReusableSword

You know what, I think that might work. Help defending the eastern border couldn't be a bad thing for the Crown, especially if it came with access to certain trade goods.

No room for an apprentice priest & tutor to the young queen, then?

@Obscene Symphony

I'd love to let you in, but there's honestly been a little more interest in this than I was expecting. I can definitely let you know if somebody drops out, though, if you'd like.

@Major Sharpe

No problem! I’m getting into some 1x1s anyway, so my feelings aren’t hurt. Good luck!

@Major Sharpe

Out of curiosity, what does the queen look like?

The Queen

[Major Sharpe]

I just updated the OP to include a little background information on the capital and the palace itself, for the interested.

@Obscene Symphony

Thanks, you too.

Out of curiosity, what does the queen look like?

@rush99999

Believe it or not, I haven't given it much thought. She's thirteen, so I'd say she's about five feet tall, give or take a few inches. Auburn, shoulder length hair. Brown eyes, fair skin. Why do you ask?

[rush99999]

@Genni

That's not the queen, that's Freddie Mercury.

@Major Sharpe

I was curious. Also, I plan on making my character rather eccentric, so knowing what she looks like would be helpful when deciding whether my character's 1st words to the queen should be "Hi, I'm Manfred" or "Sweet Naram-Sadai! You're adorable!...Also hi, I'm Manfred".

@rush99999

Gotcha. I'll try to write up some stuff for Queen Gisela, Chancellor Vulmar, and some other important court personalities before the IC business starts.

@rush99999

Or "I'm so, so sorry for burning down the west wing of your palace, please don't cut off my head! ...ohh, and my name's Maaa- Arnold. Yes, it's Arnold. Definitely Arnold. Certainly isn't Manfred. Oh no, definitely not Manfred."

[rush99999]

@Genni

It's highly unlikely the west wing of the palace would burn down if Manfred were left there unattended...It'd probably blow up instead.

[Genni]

@rush99999 But what if Arnold was left there instead?

[rush99999]

@Genni

Arnold would unleash an unfathomable darkness that would consume the entire world.

EDIT: Either that, or create a tactical squadron of superpowered rodents for rapid assaults.

@rush99999

Carmella: "I warned him those turnips were going off, but would he listen?"

[rush99999]

@Genni

Manfred: None of this would have happened had we simply sent in the rats.

[Grammatic]

Gonna try and throw my name into this mix.

[Major Sharpe]

@ArisenMoon

Oh, shoot. I'm sorry, I forgot to update the thread to 'Full.' I'm not taking any new people right now, but I can let you know if someone drops out, if you'd like.

Manfred: None of this would have happened had we simply sent in the rats.

@rush99999

They did try sending in the RATS, but they were all killed by an exploding helicopter.

@Major Sharpe
What do you think of a foreign ambassador of the queenly lass's former nation- presumably some fairly prosperous, if small, nation that focuses a bit more on academics and the like, more so than the rest of the world, considering she was sent there instead of anywhere else- trying to get in on the fact that she's more like them, rather than of her home country, and trying to get a share, a piece, of that fancy prosperous pie that is the empire overseas?

That is to say- another guy making a bid of being from the land the new queen had spent more of her time in?

[Flagg]

Hey just FYI I'm withdrawing interest. This looks like a great RP, I just realistically dont have the time. Have fun all!

[rush99999]

@Genni

You still remember that then?

[Genni]

@rush99999

Remember it? Nightingale's still picking pieces of debris out of her... ...let's just say hair, given the sensitive nature of the audience here. :D
