That is presumptuous considering your character hasn't been approved yet (at least as far as I see here). I would assume we could have some freedom in that aspect as kingdoms have risen and fallen throughout history and are not always large or written about. Something realistic for a time period should work pretty easilly.

In the Interest Check we only talked about having characters from different times (the examples were Middle Ages and Victorian). I believe the idea is to take people that are from a similar, common skill level and throw them into a fantasy beyond what we experience here on Earth.
Both drewccapp and t2wave are right. Everyone is from Earth. However, feel free to make up imaginary towns/kingdoms/etc. to suit your needs. But everyone is essentially from Earth. It therefore follows that everyone is human, no exceptions. I promise every character is special in other ways. ;)
@Tatsua Aiisen Yay good to see you again! Alicia is approved. Please copy her CS to the Characters section.
@cnash1303 The shift to balance looks good to me. Approved! Please copy the CS to the Characters section.
@BingTheWing Dakota is approved! Please copy the CS to the Characters section.
Just gonna reserve a spot for my CS over here. Say, just asking, would an artist who was also a member of the local militia due to national obligations be considered someone in a 'violent' profession? They don't fight wars or do any fighting, they just pretend to be soldiers one week out of every month, or something along those lines.
This would count as something that'd need to be balanced. Just point out in the CS that the character has little experience and you're good to go. :)
Ah. Then there is perhaps something I missed. Could you point me to the precedent so I could be better informed?
I can answer that! drewccapp is referring to a very similar RP that I'm also running that she's also a part of. Her character there is from a made-up kingdom. Which is totally OK in this RP too!
Did I get everyone? -- I gotta go, I'll be back in a few hours!
