|- The Food Kingdoms: Episode One: The Masquerade -|

Have only royals from the other kingdoms been invited to the masquerade, or are other lesser nobles also invited?

I will be working on a CS, but I hope to see the GM finished CS to use as a guide. Like are the characters names something like Penelope Pineapple of the fruit kingdom, or is it more like Penelope Thomas is a pineapple blood of the fruit kingdom...?

My character idea is for a noble/royal girl of the sweet kingdom.

@Ceta de Cloyes Zash is accepted! Post him up in the CS tab.

Once there is at least two more accepted characters I’ll start the IC!

Random Questions & Answers

So I don't know if this is a thread yet or not. But basically this is a thread for people to post any random question that pops into your head, and for others to answer.

First Question
What is my "type" based on this board of men I made....?

Second Question
Why are some of the threads in off-topic unusable when they are not locked, and were posted on a few months ago? For instance Post Your Pikcha thread. I am unable to post anything in it.

Third Question
What is the best RP you ever played in and why?

@Ceta de Cloyes
I would say that you can take some creative liberties, if you really need to. I would much rather you play the character your heart is set on and that you put so much work into. This RP is inspired by the Waterworld movie, and an anime called, Gargantia on the Verdurous Planet that has more advance tech. Technologies are not completely lost, for instance the Dominus Ship Jackal is a ship that specializes in buildings/smithing/metal kind of stuff so they would have a forage of sorts. I don't know much about modern black smithing so bare with me.

Also the great flood happened in 2055, and people prepped a bit in advance for it. So 2020 tech + 30ish years means there would have been advancements. So like a solar powered saw and welding gear or something for tools. It would be rare to have this tech off the Jackal ship or Drevni cities, but it is around. Other tools like knifes, wrenches, and nails could be made from carved bone or stone. Whale oil can be used for flames, and blow torches if fuel is an issue.

As for wood harvested from the ocean floor, I googled and this is what I got, so hopefully that helps. It's only been 350 years since the flood, and this site is saying wooden ships from 1500 years ago are still found in the black sea. And yes metal is the primary thing scavenged from the bottom of the ocean, from sunken cities and other ships.

So I did it three times assuming I would get the same author 2 out of 3 times, but no I got three different dudes. Only one of which I've actually read before.

I got Stephan King, Cory Doctorow, and Arthur Clarke.

@Haeo Exactly.

@Haeo I don't know how to properly and scientifically calculate Life expectancy, but people tend to live to be 70-80 years old is they are healthy and get enough food/water. The medical tech is basically zero, so things like cancer, diabetes, heart conditions, and things that require surgery or medication to fix end up just killing people now. Malnutrition, starvation, dehydration, and drowning are the number one killers in Waterworld.

As for how people understand the passage of time, its all based on the fazes of the moon. Every new moon is considered to be the beginning of a new month. Every 12 new moons, is a new year. So "September" is the ninth new moon of the year. A new moon is when there is no moon in the sky. The sun and shadows are used to figure out what time of the day it is, for instance the sun at its peak, and no shadow means it is noon.

I really hope you get to play!
