Pretty sure you just described a third of the world's population. Welcome!

I just finished The Secret History, a very Gen X book. Never Let Me Go before that, which I'd recommend to any writer outside the MFA atmosphere who wants to know emotonal restraint.

PS: I'm not actually upset. I've just been waiting to use that pretty (ruby) red smiley. ^_^
The same as Blacky: Hillan's already stamped me. Waiting on the two others, YOSHISKITTLEZ AND NIGHTRUNNER.
Do me a favor, everyone?
If you haven't placed your CS in the Accepted thread, pleaseplease do so. With this large a cast of characters, it's a nice and readily available reference.

Advice?
Use History as your guide. Surely Omeria isn't the only continent in your fictional world; probable there are other Kings, Queens, Emperors, Sultans, etc, etc.
Political games, especially of the medieval sort, are often a sort of 'wheels within wheels' affair: the royal family's assassins may all be Omerian, but maybe the (or one of the) forces behind the assassinations are not native to Omeria. A slighted religious leader? A foreign distant relative to the royal family looking to power grab, or simply respond to their distant family being murdered? Maybe the Omerian royals wronged a powerful merchant guild? Or worse, didn't pay their creditors?
(To say nothing of typing in 'campaign ideas', or 'roleplaying ideas.' A lot of tabletop RPers use the internet as a means to share ideas, and they're a great resource for roleplayers like us on the Guild.)
Countless options. Options easily found in our real world history book (also other works for fiction, not just GoT), stories just waiting to be discovered and re-imagined for your setting.
Hope that helps! <3

Hi!
Welcome to the Guild. Have fun, feel free to ask a question if you have one, and remember to be cool. Like the Fonz.

I'm not sure I've even seen that sort of RP before. But it sounds like those who do it, maybe do because it's cathartic? Different strokes for different folks, takes all kinds. =)
Welcome to the Guild! Have fun!...and please, avoid the boarding school games.
Other than that, party on, Garth.

Finally been convinced (it took about a sentence) to write up a CS for the new version of this rp, not using my usual x-men character, instead going 'back to my roots' and making a lovable English rapscallion (at least, he thinks so).
Don't be in a hurry. <3

So I sent my CS to Skittlez and Nightrunner. Hopefully they get back to me soon. I also noticed something about almost all of our characters: Tragic backstory go!
You also might notice something about many a Marvel canon mutant, then. =)
Welcome back!
Get to it, gurl.
Get to it, gurl.

Sounds good, Ruby in Summerhall Robert needed a word with Brodrik, can we get that on a pirate pad at some point?
Hellz yeah. Just start a collab and send it to me. <3
