sunshine and whiskey
Always bring your own sunshine.
So, I will admit that it has been awhile since I did a medieval roleplay, meaning with swords, Kings and Queens, kind of Game of Thrones. So I am here to start yet another one. Of course, betrayal is encouraged in this type of environment and will be displayed throughout most of the roleplay.
Premises: The King dies, leaving no male heirs to takes their rightful place on the throne after him. A male proclaimed himself as the true and right King, only to cause a war to break out and create even more division between the kingdoms. So, the true and rightful was slain and battle and the guy that slain him was named King, picking up a Queen along the way. The Queen's sister is a little jealous because she is not ruling a kingdom of her own until she, herself, is picked up by a nearby King and is planning on going to war with her sister's kingdom, further dividing the nations apart. Thousands will die, neighbor will turn on neighbor, brother upon brother in a war which will define a country.
So, that is the gist of it. Also, once again, I think we all should know by now that I am only looking for high casual to detailed writers that are active, can drive a plot along and write three or more paragraphs. Sorry, just a preference of mine. But below, I will display a cast of characters.
So, would anyone be interested in learning more about this tale of betrayal?

King of Seabel: Is the eldest son of the late Francis Rayleigh who was executed by King Harold, after his father’s death ??? declared war upon the Lancaster’s and after the defeating the King upon the battlefield ??? took the crown of Seabel. He is an excellent military strategist, not only by defeating the Lancastrian army but for his previous skill in battle. Once a reckless man, who abused his wealth and power he has mellowed since the marriage to his wife, becoming a dutiful and affectionate monarch, husband and father.
Queen of Seabel: Is the eldest daughter of Henry Stanford and sister to the exiled Queen. She was married to ??? a little over five years ago when her father fledged loyalty to the Rayleigh’s. ??? is very much her father’s daughter, passionate and ambitious yet fearful for her children’s sakes, the throne may be in the Rayleigh’s hands now but she must bear the King a son in order for their dynasty to continue. This role may be taken by me.
Duchess of Vale: The widow of the late Francis Rayleigh, she play a large role in persuading her son to rise up against the Lancaster’s after the execution of her husband. ??? is a strong woman, with a hatred which runs deep for the Lancaster’s and their loyalists, she trusts very few people, least of all the Stanford’s after the youngest daughter’s betrayal.
Prince of Seabel: Is the youngest son of the Rayleigh’s. He is loyal and protective over his family, he will defend ??? claim to the throne and his children’s until the day he dies.
Princess of Seabel: Is the youngest child of the Rayleigh family. She has been very much sheltered and protected by her family and has lived most her life going in and out of sanctuary. She has a gentle soul but is slightly naïve to the world and perhaps trusts too easily.
Earle of Briar: Is the father of two Queens, one sits on the throne whilst the other is in exile in the North. He takes no rejoice in the situation for his youngest daughter married the enemy and betrayed his family, dividing them in the process. Not only did he lose a daughter but also his eldest son and heir as he followed ??? north as she married her lover. Now he looks for his family’s future in his eldest daughter and his younger son, although he had ‘disowned’ his daughter and son, he still thinks and worries about them often even if he does not show it.
Countess of Briar: Is a woman very much divided, she has two children in exile whilst another sits on the throne of Seabel, this was not something she wanted for her children. ??? is a loving and nurturing mother, she is loyal to the Rayleigh’s for her daughter and husbands sake, however always keeps ??? and ??? in her prayers and close to her heart, she longs for the day she will see them again.
Knight of the Garter: Is the youngest child of the Stanford’s and also the heir to his father’s title and land since his elder brother, Jon’s betrayal. He is very close to his sister ??? and solely loyal to her family. ??? has become very influential at court under her influence, as well as their father and had recently been appointed a member of the Knights of the Garter a very great honour.
Exiled King of Seabel: Is the son of the late Harold Lancaster whom he saw slaughtered on the battlefield at the hands of ??? Rayleigh. On that day he had no option but to retreat or face complete desolation of his troop. He fled North with his family and those loyal to him, along with his new bride, ??? Stanford. ??? is preparing to re-take his throne and bring the tyrants to their knee’s by any means possible.
Exiled Queen of Seabel: Is the wife of the King ???, married for little under two years, it has been a relatively happy marriage although marred by the loss of two children and the disowning from her family, she knows now that she can never return to them as she is known as a traitor amongst those whom she once called kin. However, there is time to rejoice as the Queen has just found out she is expecting again. Although she is not without her own fears; she fears for her families safety daily and prays that she could see them again.
Duke of Arva: Is the brother of the exiled King. A hot headed Prince with a greater want of women and wine rather than his duties, he has a lust for war and is rather excited for the prospect of war between the two Houses once again so he can create a name in blood for himself like his brother and father. He is currently in exile with James in the North.
Exiled Princess of Seabel: Is the younger sister of ??? and ???, with her mother and father dead she has been left in the care of her brothers, just another pawn in their race for the throne. She is a gentle soul who will do her duty with her head held high and dignified like a true princess; many see her beauty but most seldom see the iron within her bones.
