Lavell, a Fantasy Medieval Kingdom (OOC) (Open)

[Cresadine]

I'm not too sure about the incestous relationship between Edward and Mary. The fact that he ended things is going to influence things later on in his story, but I'm not sure if its even necessary. Opinions?

Thanks for responding guys.

You are very welcome Cresadine Friend!!!

[Naturaiko]

I'd say yes, IRL.

Oh?

Indeed! I always thought he was ruggedly handsome; I have a thing for dark-haired men. My boyfriend actually kinda' looks like him...w/o the scar, though.

Thanks for responding guys.

To quote the law of Chekhov's Gun;

If a gun is mentioned in Act I, it should go off no later than Act III.

Since you already mentioned it, I would say go for it!

I've got work, but I'll be back by 9. I'll be doing homework, but my interest is peaked now!

[Argentarino]

Name: Lady Maliya Pelianos
Realm: Riverhold, Vassal of Laesophere
Gender: Female
Family: Brother is Lord Astor Pelianos of Riverhold
Family Crest: Pelianos Family Crest
Loyal to the King? Why or why not?: No, as she shares her brother's views on the matter.
Age: 20
Height: 5'5"
Appearance:
Personality: Sometimes adventurous, but for the most part, she is reserved and wary of her position in society, though her brother encourages her to be bold.
Biography: Maliya Pelianos is whispered to be the "Jewel of Riverhold" for her breathtaking beauty and golden hair, and was taught how to read and write by her older brother, Lord Astor. The two have a very close bond, with each striving to improve the other. Maliya, as like most noblewomen in Lavell, learned the arts and skills deigned appropriate for women, though she is an avid horse rider and hawker, preferring the outdoors to the castle. While she may be more adventurous in Riverhold, she has the habit of closing up when outside of Riverhold, despite her brother's supportive urging.
Weapon of choice: None
Strengths: Beauty, charm, and education.
Weaknesses: She tends to be extremely reserved in the face of strangers, and is very dependent on her brother for support.
Notes:

Name: Tlax Drumnistuc
Occupation: Goblin Tribal Leader
Realm of residence: Tikkemund
Gender: Male
Age:36
Height: 4'1
Appearance: (Image)
Personality: Very short tempered, Greedy even though he tries not to be, and is more rational then other goblins
Biography: Tlax was born into the poor run down village of Gringkstal in the Salt Marches of Tikkemund, hugging the Southern coast. Tlax has a dream of becoming a master trader and growing Gringkstal too a massive city and a hub of Goblin Culture, proving that they are not meager savages.
Weapon of choice: Shalalie and Throwing Spears
Strengths: Boar Riding, Aiming, Stealth, Rational
Weaknesses: Hand to Hand Combat, Greedy, Short Temper

This could be interesting. The only goblin i've got so far is Gaxa/Gascon and i've yet to put up an app for him. He and Tlax could have a future together.

Name: Gaxa, aka Gascon
Occupation: Knight, former sellsword
Realm of residence: Tikkemund
Gender: Male
Age: Late 20s.
Height: 4'9''
Appearance: He, like most goblins, is around 5 feet tall (very tall for a goblin), with a lithe but muscular body free of much fat. His legs are triple joined like an animal, and his arms are much longer in proportion to his body than would normally be seen in a human. His black wire-like hair is kept in a long ponytail, usually hidden inside a helmet. His ears splay out wide from either side of his head in large trianges. His long is long, sharp and slightly hooked. His reptile-like eyes are yellow and his mouth houses plenty of sharp, similarly coloured teeth.
Personality: Quiet and brooding, Gaxa spends very little time around other goblins. When he does talk, he does so out of necessity, handing out orders and reporting progress. He seems to have no friends, only subordinates and superiors.
Biography: While he followed many of his fellow goblins by leaving his tribe to become a soldier of fortune, his actions are very un-goblin. Most goblins are happy to stew away in their squalid tribal homes, grumbling about how terrible things have become. Most boys will go off at a young age to bring money and glory to their family in foreign armies or raiding bands. Gaxa, however, was not prepared to confine himself to a life of poverty and boredom for archaic tribal virtues that have been irrelevant for centuries. He would go out and make a name for himself amongst the humans. He served for a while with Sveter, helping to orchestrate his seizure of Swampcrest and managing the defense of the city. In preparation for Sveter's ascension into the political world, he was given a knighthood for his loyalty, becoming Sir Gascon of the Mire.
Strengths: Accomplished fighter, drive to succeed, nothing to lose
Weaknesses: Conscious about his goblin identity, usually wears a full suit of armour and either keeps out of the way or stays on horseback to seem taller than he is.

I like that they are going to be intertwined but, a goblin knight? I don't think that'd be a thing however, I could understand how the goblin was a sells word since goblins are pretty ruthless.

Ugh waiting for Dijen to respond to Geoffrey is boring.

On another note, how long should I wait until Edward can make his landing?

Just across the sea from a nearby Western country.

[Albertae]

This feast is biding well. Soon, I will hear of Lord Yorktyne and he will become a candidate for the new leadership in Lavell once and if we win the rebellion.

1 week at the most.

I'm not revealing anything. But I think the main reason Edward returned (with a small army) was so that he could help fight with the rebellion.

How is that going to work lol cause the Rebellion will be split when it comes to that lol

Yeah, we will certainly need his retinue of 750 correct? That will add to our currently. 2000 soldiers and 30 king's guard. That'll bring the total up to 2750 which is still short of their current 3000 and adding since they are recruiting soldiers through the religion, so we have a long road ahead of us. Luckily, we have Ethor! He will bring atleast 2000 soldiers into the army since that's really what he will be doing in the war, supplying soldiers.

I'm thinking that all who participated in the war and actually did something in the war to help further it get a vote on the new king, leadership, etc. to avoid controversy.

So the Rebellion is screwed early in the war, plus before we kick off the war all of us need to assemble in the Rebellion's HQ and discuss a strategy before starting the war and delxarinf the Rebellion formed

2,000 soldiers sound like a little too much, more like 1,500. And since he is in Obbunium (the King's realm) where there would be loyalists and even less soldiers.

Just as a historical note, large nations typically won't become republics for another seven-hundred years. In a country like Lavell it would be virtually non-existent as common people weren't educated or aware enough to want a Republic - and under a Republic the whole noble system would be dismantled - so basically every would lose their job. Just some food for thought.

Does anyone else think we should make another thread for the feast to allow for faster, more conversation-like responses? It'll mean we won't be messing up pacing for other parts of the story too.

Sounds like a better idea.

Not really, look at Rome, Greece they were the first republic and democracy
