[OOC] Pursuit of Power

[Silent Whispers]

@Silence SoundsThat’s what I was probably going to choose lmao

@Aamaya

Yes! Woot!

If you want to plot ideas, you can always message me. :) I'd be happy to discuss.

[Seance]

@Silence SoundsOh yeah! Totally forgot you were playing the Queen of Earthica! Yes we should probably come up with something for our first posts, decide what they’re doing and how they’re preparing plus the type of relationship they have.

@Aamaya

Exactly what I was thinking! :)

Ive been thinking about joining this for a long time, I just have one question - what is the importance of the fact that it is the Earth 40 years after a disaster? I mean the world stands perfectly on its own and this fact just doesnt play along too much - 40 years means a lot of elder people would remember our world, it is also not enough time to force the genetic mutations you are describing. I imagine there would also be a lot of "artefacts" left - ruins of the buldings, plastic or metallic things, etc.

I was thinking about joining as a queen of Exodus, as it seems to be the most needed role - as we dont have a king there, is it OK if I make him an NPC and make a quick sketch of what he is like? In time someone might want to pick him up, but I need some stable basic info for creating the queen.

• Queen Antonette or Queen Townsend
• Lady Antonette of House Townsend
• Queen of Earthica, Antonette
• Queen Antonette Townsend, Second of her name}

_{Antonette matches the Earthica appearance perfectly from the eyes of her peers. She stands about five foot eight and weighs about one hundred and twenty-five pounds. She has fiery red-colored locks of hair that she usually has tied up in a bun around the Kingdom unless she's going to the gardens or to certain events. But when her hair is not tied up or in a style, it cascades well pass the middle of her back and the ends reach close to her buttocks. Her eyes are a pure emerald green that shines brightly in the right amount of lighting. Antonette skin complexion is very much pale and even though she frequently visits the gardens, it will not get any darker or sunburnt.}

ᴏ ᴄ ᴄ ᴜ ᴘ ᴀ ᴛ ɪ ᴏ ɴ

_{She may rule the Kingdom of Earthica alongside her King but she also handles their finances to see if they can receive more money, somehow. She does report the finances to the King, too.}

ᴘ ᴇ ʀ s ᴏ ɴ ᴀ ʟ ɪ ᴛ ʏ

_{• Strong • Compassionate • Cunning • Straightforward •}

_{Antonette had to become a strong individual because of past events that have happened in her life. She likes to show off her strong side often and does not hesitate to show it publically either, whether she's in her own Kingdom or not. Even though she is a strong person but when it comes to love, she's a totally different person. Antonette actually shows a little bit of compassion towards her King, even if he doesn't return the same feeling. If she loves you, you will definitely know it because she shows it well. It has been known that Antonette can be quite cunning and scheme to either get what she wants or have someone destroyed. She tries not to do it too often and she definitely knows how to cover her own tracks. She does not hold back her words towards anyone and say what is on her mind or how she feels about a certain situation. Antonette is very straightforward just about everyone she interacts with and encounters.}

ʜ ɪ s ᴛ ᴏ ʀ ʏ

<sub>Antonette Elizabeth Townsend was birthed to Lord Harold Reynolds and Lady Amelia Reynolds. She was raised to up and kept close by her mother's side, who taught her how to be a proper lady and keep her friends close but her enemies closer. She learned a lot from her mother and still keeps some of the same aspects til this day. Her father was not really around much because he was trying to get their names out there and get in good with the King, which he succeeded in doing. Her mother was very close to the Queen and they were invited to stay at the royal house, which she protested against but had no choice.

Being in the royal house made Antonette quite uncomfortable, which her parents definitely saw because she did not even try to hide it. It was one morning during a breakfast that she had seen the heir to the throne, the Crowned Prince of Earthica, for the first time ever. She was definitely intrigued by the way he carried himself at such a young age and might've batted her eyelashes towards him, just to see if he notices her. It was like love at first sight and she definitely wanted to get to know him more. Her parents pushed for her to get close to the Prince, which she did and when they both became of age, they married.

They've been together ever since and still love another dearly. She is now Queen of Earthica alongside her King and her parents could not be happier to see her rule over a Kingdom.</sub>

ᴡ ᴇ ᴀ ᴘ ᴏ ɴ s

_{• Bow & Arrows ^__ Though she has warriors and such, when it comes to combat, she will not hesitate to join in with a few shots of her own.
• Shortsword ^__ Without the King's knowledge, she has a shortsword that she keeps hidden behind one of her dressers in her chambers.}

s ᴋ ɪ ʟ ʟ s

_{• Archery ^__ She was trained by some warriors when she was a teenaged girl and became quite skilled in the area.
• Gardening ^__ Antonette has a green thumb and loves gardening certain flowers and crops. She loves whenever her creations come into bloom.
• Manipulation ^__ It is no doubt that she has been known to manipulate people, even pitted an entire house against each other. She is very good at persuading people to believe her words, too.}

@RaylahDue to the toxins (most likely something otherworldly and not known to earth) that were released when the worldwide fire occurred, mutations and things of that sort happened almost instantaneously to those that were in direct contact with said toxins. (Primfira and Exodus.) What caused the explosions and fire is still unknown, most likely some sort of bomb dropped. The reason we are so many years after would be because the world was nearly inhabitabal for a lot of those years. Many of each race dying off, those who were able to survive being the ones who would repopulate each race. Some areas were less polluted than others toxin wise, making mutations rarer in the other kingdoms. The oldest elders that were alive during the time of the fires would have mostly died off by now, but they would definitely have explained briefly what the world was like before the fires. However, having little people and resources, there was no way to get back to that way of living. At least not anytime soon.

There most definitely would be remains of buildings, no belongings because those would have been turned to ash. However these remains would be located outside the area anyone travels. Sand too thick to even see what’s left, dangerous sandstorms with razor sharp blades of crystallized sand in them, and who knows what else.

The kingdoms are on the only area on earth capable of being inhabited. This part is where the elders found to be the safest, taking the least amount of damage and with time and work it became green once more. With Primfira’s smarts and Earthica’s green thumb, they would have created the liquid that helped speed the process of growth in the plants/land. (The liquid Earthica would later keep for themselves as the races broke apart into kingdoms.)

As for the Exodus king, that’s fine. I think someone was willing to play that role but if not, you can definitely make it a NPC.

@Silence SoundsYes, I always forget who wants to play who even though you just told me haha. Thank you for replying.

@Aamaya

You are fine, love. lol No problem.

[Seance]

@Silence SoundsCS looks spectacular !

[Silent Whispers]

@Silence SoundsCS looks spectacular !

@Aamaya

Thanks! :) I do try.

[Seance]

@RaylahAlso forgot to mention, since you’re playing the queen of Exodus, you do not have the take the last name Freyja. @Silence Sounds and you can discuss the details but the reasoning behind my character (the king and queens daughter) taking the name Freyja instead of their last name would to increase her appearance of purity. The first ever king and queen of their race being King Freyja and Queen Freyja.

[Raylah]

@Aamaya Well I only wanted to take the queen because noone else wanted to and it seemed important to have either king or queen role filled :) I do actually prefer some other roles like possibly a spy or maybe even assassin, I will have to think about it more when I have time, but you can free up the queen of Exodus spot.

[Seance]

@RaylahOkay! No issue, you can take whichever spot you're most interested in. (:

[Jinxer]

I've slightly lost track - what other spaces need filling (minus, of course, whatever role Raylah would like)? I'm happy to play a second character if required.

[Seance]

@JinxerExodus Queen I believe needs to be filled still, Father of Luthra, Exodus warriors, and I think that is all the main spots.

[Seance]

@JinxerI believe @mercenarius said something about being willing to play Luthra's Mother, but I am unsure if that still stands. If not then that role as well.

[Jinxer]

@Aamaya If no one else takes it I'm happy to play Exodus Queen but if we have any fresh interest I can play any other role required as well.

[Seance]

@JinxerAwesome! If nobody takes it by tomorrow you can definitely go ahead.

[Benzaiten]

This sounds very interesting. I love the setting.
