Princess Amanda Now Entertaining Suitors (Open, IC)

(ooc: If this thread looks familiar, it's because I actually started it some months ago, but I didn't have the time to see it through.
But now I should have more time, so I'll start over. DON'T GRAVEDIG THE OLD THREAD!)

I am Princess Amanda of the Kingdom of Spadzia, the only child of the king.
I am going to inherit the leadership of this nation when my father dies or abdicates, and that’s probably going to be pretty soon. (I must point out that this nation’s policies are his policies, not mine. In other words, our legislation and WA Category reflect his politics, not mine.)

(And if you want more information about my nation, look at this factbook HERE.)

My father has kept me very sheltered all of my life and away from prospective suitors, but he’s too old and feeble to prevent that anymore. So I am now entertaining suitors from any and all foreign lands who care to visit me here. Don’t worry, my father the king won’t notice you coming and going!

This is a contest, and I will eventually choose a winner. The prize for winning will at least be an alliance between your country and Spadzia. Beyond that... we’ll see.

I might go into further detail describing myself if it becomes necessary, but for now,
I will just say:
I am of white/European ancestry, and I have blonde hair and green eyes. I am 5-feet, 2-inches tall, and my measurements are 39-23-40. I am 24 years old.

Here are a couple pictures of me:

Also, as long as this contest is going on, Spadzia's flag is my headshot.

To be considered:
YOU DO have to be human. Ponies, dinosaurs, robots and space aliens need not apply.
YOU DO NOT have to be from a modern technology nation... but it’s definitely an advantage if you are!
YOU DO NOT have to come from nobility. Suitors from non-monarchal nations are just as welcome to come. You just have to be a representative of your nation. (And your nation’s politics are irrelevant.)
YOU CAN NOT send more than one suitor per nation. (It would get too confusing otherwise.)
YOU CAN NOT go beyond PG-13 in what you write.

So please, describe yourself.
Tell me who you are, where you’re from, post a tasteful picture of yourself (or tell what you look like with words, that’s fine too) and tell me why I should partner with you.

And thanks for coming!

Count Anastasius is forty-years old, divorced, and the recent heir to a fortune estimated in excess of $52,000,000 from his uncle's holdings. Most of this comes from Orientalis Productions, a rising, but still small-budget film production company. The rest of this comes from his grandfather's term as Count of the Sacred Largesse, the country's top finance post.

The Count is an Imperial Catholic (which, unlike Roman Catholics, means that he can divorce and remarry, though he will have to do penance and receive absolution during the wedding Mass). He would wish to have any marriage performed by a priest of his church.

The Count is a man of faith, but makes no other commitments. Marrying Romans comes with some risks, since the reluctance of men and women of our nationality to practice marital fidelity. He has been tested for STDs and HIV and has come back negative on all tests. He has two children, a ten-year old daughter and an eight-year old son. Well, he will commit to being discreet and doing his best not to embarrass Your Highness.

Here is a picture of the Count.

The Count will make an excellent husband, anyway, in that he likes to spoil women to the extreme and he has the manners, dignity, education, and bearing to make a believable King/Prince Consort.

I like horseback riding and walks on the beach. I also like spending time with my dog, Lola. I dislike Fat women and Cats.

Cool!
But if you don’t mind my asking, how old are you?

And you say you’re a prince, but what do you do? What are your duties, exactly?
Or another way of putting it, what is your occupation?

Looking at... what you have to offer... I have no doubt that you would make an excellent husband!

But your occupation... You’re a movie producer? That’s cool! Tell me more.

Well I currently don't have any diplomatic Responsibilities. I am an actor. I have been in Jasonopian Films such as "Princess Bride", "Back to School", "Back to School 2: Class Reunion", and much more. I am also going to be in a few American films coming up.

Greetings Princess Amanda of the Kingdom of Spadzia,

I am Captain (Senior Grade) Wolfgang Kess Von FlameHill of the Armed Republic of StellarGate.

I come from a nation known for its somewhat... odd choice of titles, despite the 'republic' we are a Constitutional Military Monarchy and it is one of my nation’s more silly traditions.

I am current 30 years of age and reach a comfortable height of 5' 11". I have black hair and chocolate brown eyes(At least that what everyone else says, I just say brown.) I am of perfect health at the moment and no recent injuries which would otherwise restrict my movement.

My name may sound a little strange of the tongue, but the Von FlameHill is actually the title of my family’s Earldom. I am currently the next heir to the FlameHill seat in the Stellian House of Lords and currently, even without family support, am well off financially.

I currently am employed in two different jobs, one is as an actor for the Television series Honor's Blood, a science-fiction series which is very popular in both the military and civilian sectors of StellarGate's population. The other job is that I am an active duty military officer who has held two commands, one was a destroyer the other was a historical battleship within the StellarGate Navy. Although this may sound a bit intimidating, the Navy is very flexible about letting their people come and go, and I haven't been aboard a ship in about a year due to filming for Honor's Blood. In fact, the navy taught me how to act, or at least the many actors and actresses among the military did at least. I was actually thinking about becoming an artist(which is a well paid profession in StellarGate,) before I was cast into Honor's Blood.

In my free time I enjoy doing artwork(drawing, painting, digital), preferably ships or scenes from Honor's Blood, but I can do other subject matters as well. I love acting and can play a wide range of characters, most of the time with little manipulation after filming. Other things I enjoy doing is boating, hockey, history, fencing, and partying(what good naval officer doesn't like a party?) I also have a dry sense of humor.

I am not a religious person and I do not follow any religion, though I do respect other people that follow their own religions. Being the person I am, I would be interested in learning about any religion which you may follow, and not just because you are one of its followers. I like to learn, it is part of a Stellian Naval Officer's oath to keep growing and learning about the world and I dare not fail that oath.

I have had some experience with politics and was once a diplomat to a neighboring country as per tradition in the Stellian Navy.

I also regularly interact with crowds of young children (due to my job as an actor and making appearances in different places) and have found that they seem to have an odd attraction to me, even if they don't really know who I am. My CO (a Commodore and fellow Honor's Blood actor) says it's because of charming smile. I just roll with it and let the children crawl all over me while asking questions about why I became an actor and what my favorite color is.

Here is a collection of pictures of me as Andreas in Honor's Blood:

Here are a few of my artworks:

And if you ask why you should partner with me? That is up to you. I am a quick learner and respectful of others. I do not look down upon women, I see them as equals and can just as easily do task normally 'reserved' to women as women can do things normally 'reserved' for men.
I am also very loyal, I would not abandon you or the nation during any moment, high or low.
You are obviously an intelligent woman. I shall not add any insult by listing more reasons why I should partner with you, as that is for you to decide. I can accept a decision either way, Your Highness, as I cannot make up your mind for you.

Unfortunately, the Count must withdraw his name from contention, having suddenly learned that his ex-wife is pregnant with his child. He feels a moral duty to re-marry her. Vale!

Oh, well, too bad for me, but congratulations to you and your ex-wife! Best of luck!

Also very interesting. But I'm curious to know more about your country. Can you tell me more about Jasonopian itself?

Just doing a daily bump with an update.

The "suitable suitors" contest is not over! It's still open, and anybody can join.

Everyone who's applied so far has been a nobleman, and that's fine, but you don't have to be.
Non-noble people from non-monarchy nations are just as welcome to apply, you just have to be
a representative of your nation.

So, what else can I say but...

And thanks for coming!
-Princess Amanda

Prince Julius of Jasonopian... It would be in poor taste to go into detail. Let's just say he's not part of this contest anymore.

Greetings to the nation of Spadzia and the Princess Amanda.

Your in luck for a prince in the Mind Empire named Adrian Azaeleon de Forgue is also a bachelor, and is on the look out for a possible bride!

He is 29 years old and is semi-involved in politics. He is the half brother of the current Emperor Ezekiel Eustace the 2nd through their father Bryce the 4th and 8th. He is a possible successor to the Senior Council of Sages should one pass on or a fourth seat open. He has black/brown hair, green-brown eyes, is 6'1, and a little thin but not skinny. He has interest in sailing, and owns three ships, one personal yacht the Avenger, and two battleships belonging to a 700 year old Imperial fleet. He is not only a prince of the blood though, he is also the Prince Elector for a small state called The Coast of Lucifer just north of the Imperial Capital, and has his own private manor there. While he used to rule the state on his own, he has recently handed over power of the Small coast to the city's burgers and merchant elite where they can govern it more republicanly. He would be happy to travel to Spadzia to meet with princess Amanda if she is willing to entertain his company. Thank you for your time.

Some information about the Enlightened Mind Empire can be provided if the Princess desires.
