Start in... I'd say 1499, and have the POD no earlier than 1220. So the Black Plague can be different, but here is still a feudal Europe. You know?

Supersaturation of the late 1800's genre, low supply/high demand, experienced RPers mixed with a couple of new ones, luck.

@Timothia, I'm flattered. You combined two of my ideas, quoted me and used an app with a 429 all in the same OP. :P

Realm App
Name: County of Rosselló (Roussillon; sound familiar?)
Population: Well, I actually used ratio-stuff similar to the way you did and got about 45,000 for all of it, but I'll lower it to 30,000 and put it down to war (I'm at a border) and other stuff like tourism (which wouldn't matter back then), etc.
Levy size: 1,000?
Territorial Claims: Modern Pyrénées-Orientales
Capital entity: Perpinya
Local Industries: grapes, trans-Pyrenean trade, fish, olives, goats, generally agriculture
Additional Backstory: TBD

Character App
Full Name: Count Alba Timoteo de Rossello
Character's Most Commonly Used Name: Alba
Dynastic Ties: TBD
Noble Titles: Count of Rossello, and whatever else (guard of the north or something, maybe?)
Heir and other claimants: Heir pre-emptive is son, Ricard Alba de Rossello, and claimants are all in noteworthy relatives section
Noteworthy relatives:
Wife: Martina de Rossello (nee Rosceliona)
Sons: Nicolau Maria de Rossello, Joaquim Hector de Rossello, Lluc Victor-Diego de Rossello
Daughters: Anna Salut DiCatalunya (nee Rossello), Carla Berta de Rossello
Mother-In-Law: Maria Rosceliona (nee Rue)
Brother: Bernat Cristo de Rossello
Sister-In-Law: Mariona Po de Rossello (nee de Pamplona)
Son-In-Law: Lluc Monte DiCatalunya
Additional Backstory: TBD
429

I hope Roussillon isn't too big; I can lower if needed.

I'd be up for it. It's gonna be a while before I start working on my thing in the Age of Sail.
AH, PMT, some FT.


Your test scores indicate that you are an open-minded ultra-progressive; this is the political profile one might associate with a journalist. It appears that you are skeptical towards religion, and have a generally optimistic attitude towards humanity in general.
Your attitudes towards economics appear neither committedly capitalist nor socialist, and combined with your social attitudes this creates the picture of someone who would generally be described as a liberal.
To round out the picture you appear to be, political preference aside, a considerate idealistic egalitarian with many strong convictions.

I have been looking for a new RP to get into, and have heard wonders about GooF. I'd happily be on board for that one.

I've not heard of GooF, but if it's got Calt, Krys, G-Tech, and Glitter in it, it must be good. I'll happily join.

If we start again I think I'll either go for an overly expanded New Netherland in a revolutionary war or an Angevin Union with minimal colonies or a colonial Prussia or something else. Many possibilities there are.

If we continue the East shall tremble in fear from the Japanese.
If we start anew, I'm probably going to stick to the Japanese again.
