PLOT

The current King of Kings is King Medici, the King of Italy, and he has taken measures to step down from his reign as the next King of Kings will be chosen! The King of Kings lives in the Main Kingdom of the Empire - Imperium Renata - neutral to the other lands of the other Kingdoms as the King of Kings presides over the other Kingdoms as Head of the Empire.

A banquet will held at the Main Empire where all the candidates will live for a year. Each candidate may bring one personal maid and one personal butler (or any other servant), if they choose. (These characters can be NPC or these characters can be played by others or themselves.) As the festival occurs and the Royals and the people are celebrating, the whole Empire is in a state of peace and tranquility. However, something sinister lurks and it goes undetected until it's too late.

Once it's time for the banquet to begin, only the 14 candidates, the Main Empire's servants, the current King of Kings, and guards are allowed inside the castle. But when the current King of Kings is nowhere to be found, what happens when something drops from the ceiling of the castle and it's none other than the King of King - King Medici's dead body, sprawled against the cold, hard floors? And is that a sword plunged and pierced in his chest?

Chaos ensues as the only people present in the castle at that very moment become suspects of murder. Soon, when word spread of the recent King of Kings' - may his soul rest in peace - death, strife and discord ensues. Are the candidates also in danger of being killed? What will happen to the trials? Will there be a next King of Kings or will a war break out? Who is the killer? Peace is broken

After the festivities and banquet, the 14 selected candidates will go through trials, training, quest, and other obstacles for the search of who will become the next King of Kings. Each obstacle will be rated by the highest points among the candidates. At the end of the year, the King of Kings will be chosen among those candidates through the point system and the people's will.
