To Pierce a Steel Heart (MT, OOC, End)

[Camelone]

IC
Theme

To all families of imperial, royal, noble, or influential stock I have addressed this letter to all of you so that you may be informed that his royal highness Frederick Krieger the Pious, Shield of Christendom, Bear of the North, Father of the People, and Protector of the Living and Dead, has finally been convinced to search for a wife. The young king has given into the demands of his nobles and myself to find a suitable wife to continue the Krieger dynasty as King Frederick is the last of his line at the moment, though he has refused to marry any Camelonean woman and that is why I am reaching out to all of your illustrious houses. The King will allow all ladies involved to stay at the ancestral manor of House Krieger for three months, he will carry on with his life as normal due to the duties that his highness must attend to but he will make necessary time to talk to all of you. I have made arrangements so that many of his affairs of the realm will take place at the manor instead of another royal complex and have made preparations for all of you to accompany him when he must travel so that he will not attempt to be traveling for those three months. We the staff of the manor will be at your beck and call and shall take care of you with the vast resources of the Crown lands.

For many years the king has busied himself with the administration of the realm and crushing the vile usurpers of the Raven Rebellion that I fear he only sees duty now and nothing more. His majesty is a pious Catholic and believes strongly in the necessity to preserve Camelonean traditions and customs in the face of the globalizing world but he still has a supreme fascination with the outside world, which can be seen by his pushing for the slight opening of Camelone's borders to foreigners to visit and on rare occasions to become subjects. He tends to keep to himself though and the honored ladies who shall attempt to win the king's hand will have to engage him in conversation or search him out while on the manor, I do pray that his cold nature shall not insult your sensibilities as he has attempted to cut everyone out of his life.

I do hope to see you all who are interested and I apologize for the lack of information in regards to the King's personality and preferences he has forbidden me from sharing to much due to us forcing this upon him, and I do believe this is all that I am at liberty to share. I have attached a picture of the King within the confines of this message though and I hope that I have intrigued you enough, I do wish to see my lord happy once more. Before I conclude this letter let me reach out from my own heart not as the Seneschal of his majesty but as a man who has watched my young lord grow since he was a mere babe and who has been in the service of his family since I was a young man myself please come, I pray that one of you can bring happiness to my lord who seems to have resigned to a fate as cold as the tundras of the north. God bless you all, may Jesus Christ save you, and the Holy Ghost guide you.

Sincerely,
Seneschal Cormac Kendrick, humble servant of the king

King Frederick Krieger, 26

[South Harlonia]

Nation: South Harlonia
Name: Bethery Darlene Putney
Age: 37
Status: Queen of the Trailer Park
Family Crest: N/A
Religion: is for suckers
Appearance:

(anime rendering used for theme consistency)

Personality: Bethery is a loud, headstrong woman who doesn't take no for an answer. Her sense of class is uncanny and definitely out of the norm. However, despite her modern, independent mannerisms Bethery also enjoys being a feminine girly-girl and plastering her face in make-up and donning her favorite 17.5cm plastic heels.
Bio: Bethery first became royalty in 1997 when she was crowned Prom Queen her junior year of high-school, she would have held the title two years in a row, except she was disqualified her senior year for getting high sniffing glue then defecating on the girl's volley ball jerseys. After this, she briefly worked as an exotic dancer in downtown Ottisburg before falling pregnant with her first royal heir (who's noble paternal lineage remains yet unknown). She then settled in a vibrant mobile home community in the scenic town of Cartherville off Highway 74. Soon after, Bethery usurped the ruling trailer park queen and assumed the thrown for herself. She has been through two different baby-daddies and one marriage to plumber who she later divorced and won a glorious child support settlement in court; but Bethery has yet to find herself a good man to buy her shiny things and pay the bills.
Likes: Weed, beer, pills, cats, getting banned from sports bars
Dislikes: Catty bitches and skanks who think they are better than everyone else, when her kids piss on the floor again, when the welfare checks are late
What are you taking with you?: 2 Cats, 4 cases of tampons and some amphetamines
Other: Only real men are strong enough to handle this

While the Kingdom of Camelone appreciates your interest in King Frederick we must decline your applications as you are not of proper stock and would spell disaster for the Kingdom. The feudal lords and the bishops would never allow you to enter the realm. May you have eternal blessings.

Sorry but this is meant to be a fairly serious RP and your character is just to silly to be taken seriously so I will be declining your application. Camelone is a traditional Catholic and quasi-feudal country that is incredibly nationalistic and tradition minded.

Thank you for showing interest in my RP. I have further fleshed out the letter from the Seneschal to give more information on the situation and who King Frederick is as a person. Think of King Frederick as a young man emotional and psychologically crushed by the responsibilities of the kingship to which I will elaborate further in the IC with character interactions.

[Greater vakolicci haven]

This rp just begs for a Schtenko, does it not?

[Camelone]

I would think so as well.

[Greater vakolicci haven]

Nation: Kingdom of Celeria (di facto independent, though officially a part of the Greater Vakolicci Haven)
Name: Maria Schtenko
Age: 25
Status: Dutchess of Altach, Principal leader of Clan Schtenko, executive vice chairman of Schtenko International Insurance and Banking, reigning Olympic gold medalest (boxing, wrestling and judo)
Family Crest: Two lions rampant on an orange background overset by six stars, representing the six Schtenko dutchies
Religion: Celari paganism
Languages Spoken: (Place an X in the language you speak) Camelonean Gaelic [] English [x] Latin[] Greek [x]
Appearance: (vivid description or picture)
Maria is not particularly tall, around 5 ft 5 in height, and has a lean frame that is more toned than muscular. Her hair is kept long, especially at the back where it hangs down in waves; it is brown, and oversets a beautiful face that despite her authoritative baring is quite delicate. She has soft, thoughtful green eyes, and she often looks directly into those of her political opponents without much hesitation. You will not win a staring competition with Maria, you will almost certainly blink first. Her hands are the only part of her body that do not appear soft, they are evidently used to heavy work or perhaps combat, with her knuckles being scarred and the hands themselves being rather strong and manly.
Personality:
Maria is thoughtful and talkative, with what seems to be a genuine interest in getting to know people. Sheis very much a free spirit, enjoying parties and social events, though is most at home in combat, an activity she thrives in. She is more than willing, if you anger her, to show you how stupid annoying a cyborg actually is.
Bio:
The Schtenko family have always been rich, powerful, and uniquely among Celari nobility, female-led. Maria's grandmother was the matriarch of the family throughout her upbringing, and during that time she frowned very much on Maria's decision, and tht of her parents, for her to be given the requisite operations to become a cyborg. Fiercely intelligent, Maria did well in school and amassed various political and social allies, who helped her depose her grandmother as family head in a bloodless coup at the age of 22. During her schooling, she was involved in many adventures such as her first Olympic games in which she placed 4th in shooting, as well as saving the life of king Frederick during the Raven war. At present, Maria is focussed on improving the standing of her family, and its strength (generally in comparison to the royal family of Celeria, who she makes no secret of hating.) She is also, due to her increased combat potential, often used by the Haven when they need somebody in her weight category for various combat sports.
Likes: combat, reading, music, history, conversation, power
Dislikes: Feeling powerless, the idea that she has angered/upset her friends, boredom
What are you taking with you?: computer, mobile phone, a few guns (a compact auto and a rifle at least), a sword, a wardrobe of clothes/cosmetics/fragrences, a few books that interest her, some jewellery including her Olympic medals which she does not travel for weeks at a time without.

[Kuronami]

Nation: Kuronami (The Empire of)
Name: Kirie Hanamura
Age: 19
Status: Noble
Family Crest: Torii gate with the outlines of a wolf and fox posed in ways it looks as if they're holding the gate
Religion: Shintoism
Languages Spoken: (Place an X in the language you speak) Camelonean Gaelic [] English [X] Latin[] Greek []
Appearance:

Personality: She's very youthful but warm hearted. She's friendly and sociable but enjoys her quiet time to enjoy nature.
Bio: She's one of six children of the Hanamura family, a feudal clan that covers much of the upper Yamanashi range that runs along the provincial border of Amaterasu and neighboring Hang-Gang. Being from such an important and prominent family she's been more cloistered, being home schooled with her siblings and only venturing into nearby villages with her parents on important business. She's not socially awkward given she's always had people to be around, be it other children of nobility or simply being able to talk to village commoners growing up. She was betrothed to a man from another family from a nearby manor (mostly from an old pact made two centuries ago) for much of her teen years but the engagement was broken off at their request as they didn't really like each other enough to consider a marriage.
Likes: Nature, sweets, fine art, music, snow, winter, animals and reading.
Dislikes: Thunderstorms, smoking, dancing, singing (not the art of them, she just hates doing them herself).
What are you taking with you?: Tablet, mobile phone, wardrobe worth of various kimonos and yukatas, ceremonial katana, fragrances and beauty products and books
Other: Her cousin is, Benio Hanamura, the Empires foreign minister, her elder sister works for Piffle Company, a major retail outlet owned by the Domain's Shogun family. Her elder brother runs the timber industry of the prefecture (which is a county equivalent of a Domain), her twin sister sits in the Dominion Assembly (equivalent to a U.S. Senator or Representative at State Level) and her younger siblings are still underage and reside with the family.

Lady Kirie it is my great pleasure to see that you have chosen to venture to our blessed fatherland of Camelone. The King is anticipating your arrival and he prays for your safe travels.
Accepted!

Oh for the languages being spoken here is the key-
English
Camelonean Gaelic
Latin
Greek
And the Camelonean alphabet is not the Latin alphabet it still uses the Ogham alphabet with some minor adjustments.

I'm going to time skip soon so be prepared for that.

[Pawon]

Nation:Pawon, Kingdom of Amphila
Name:Alala
Age:17
Status:daughter of King Hector II and his wife Cassandra
Family Coat of Arms: Azure, three thunderbolts Or. Supporters: Dexter a blond woman in chains. Sinister a Hoplite representing Ares
Religion:Greek Neopagan
Languages Spoken: (Place an X in the language you speak) Camelonean Gaelic [] English []x Latin[] Greek [x]
Appearance: (vivid description or picture)https://goo.gl/images/Pe8W6Q
Personality: Modest, stubborn, curious
Bio: The first born to the Queen, she quickly became her parents favorite. As a result she was given a relative amount of freedom. Her father also desired to give her a quality education, similar to one normally given to boys. She was raised along with her half siblings and cousins, but continued to stick out among them because of her contrary ways and unusual interests. She received a private tutor and continued to study philosophy and politics. At 15 a scandal involving her tutors involved her in court intrigue. The details are a closely guarded secret, but her role revealed the amount of influence she could wield at court. As she grew older, so did her role in the court. Some courtiers sought to win her favor, however rivals for influence were jealous and conservatives disapproved of a young woman playing such a prominent role. This added to the pressure of convention to either marry her off or make her a priestess. Her father seemed inclined towards the later, viewing no Pawoni suitable for her. However, she has managed to delay entry into the priesthood, even though her younger sisters have already joined. Finally, a foreign marriage was proposed, which would also serve Hector's political ambitions.
Likes: reading, running, watching wrestling, learning new things.
Dislikes:aggressive behavior, pettiness, drunkenness
What are you taking with you?:A few barrels of pineapple wine as gifts, a maidservant, and a some clothes.
Other:Pawon is a neopagan island nation, founded as an attempt to recreate ancient Greek culture.

Princess Alala it is a great pleasure to see your interest in the King. He is honored to receive you. May your travels be safe.
Accepted! The opening scene will still hold true for your character except the date is different and it'll be rather early in the morning. Other than that the OP in the IC still applies.

[Halazy]

Nation: Sahepe Halazy
Name: Ismin Ameni
Age: 20
Status: Second eldest of the Ismin family, a notable Hala house known for its grip over local gold mines (also the source of the surname)
Family Crest: The Hala character for 'gold' (a stylized sun shining down upon a horizontal rectangle) in gold, on a black background. Usually takes the form of a long, vertical banner, in which case it has crimson trim and tassels.
Religion: Hala paganism, a very flexible polytheistic faith with literally too many gods to count. Not particularly devout, but superstitious.
Languages Spoken: (Place an X in the language you speak) Camelonean Gaelic [] English [X] Latin[] Greek [], this in addition to native Hala.
Appearance: Ameni stands about 5' 8", relatively but not terribly tall by the standards of her people. She is a 'Black Hala', meaning her hair and eyes are dark, her skin is pale, and her chin comes to more of a point than a 'White Hala', with their lighter hair and different bone structure, would have. While by no means a soft, fat pile like the Minde family are reputed to be, Ameni is also overall less toned than a common woman of the same age, though fit enough for the majority of normal physical tasks (for a while). If you look closely, you'll see small callouses on her fingers from mandatory archery practice; this is part of what's kept her healthy with her luxurious three-meal-a-day diet.
Personality: Quiet, inquisitive, patient, somewhat naively kind. Ameni is the kind of person to tip her waiter no matter how well they're paid.
Bio: Ameni is under the impression that her experience of life is somewhat typical of a young Hala woman, and that her interests are supported even outside the upper class. Her literacy, wealth, and formal education, all prized things in her homeland, seem obvious to her, though she's quite happy to share. Ameni's life has been a quiet one, her family being rich enough to support a healthy, capable child without sending her off to some form of employment. As a result, she is most at home around the upper classes, though Hala aristocracy is still a far cry from the lavishness of their foreign counterparts. Trained in the classical arts of archery, navigation, religion, history, and tailoring, Ameni is considered acceptable enough at what is expected of her that she can be rather confidently introduced to the world.
Likes: Books, learning in general, art, anything foreign, being helpful, a good meal, sailing.
Dislikes: Difficult work, being told what to do, axes in general, overly formal social situations.
What are you taking with you?: Several sets of clothes (primarily traditional ilma, a garment somewhere between a tunic and a dress), the customary bow and sword as gifts, phone and charger, a modest pouch of gold coins, a few books, writing materials, the hittara that she's still never quite figured out how to play.
Other: Ameni may or may not have been sent because her older sister Veli was too busy exploring the far end of the world.

It's funny that all the characters that have applied are pagans! I'll accept this application at the moment. Welcome to Camelone!

I'll time skip soon. The next time skip will be more than a day so if you have anything you want too get in soon please do so.

While by no means a soft, fat pile like the Minde family are reputed to be, Ameni is also overall less toned than a common woman of the same age, though fit enough for the majority of normal physical tasks (for a while). If you look closely, you'll see small callouses on her fingers from mandatory archery practice; this is part of what's kept her healthy with her luxurious three-meal-a-day diet.
Personality: Quiet, inquisitive, patient, somewhat naively kind. Ameni is the kind of person to tip her waiter no matter how well they're paid.
Bio: Ameni is under the impression that her experience of life is somewhat typical of a young Hala woman, and that her interests are supported even outside the upper class. Her literacy, wealth, and formal education, all prized things in her homeland, seem obvious to her, though she's quite happy to share. Ameni's life has been a quiet one, her family being rich enough to support a healthy, capable child without sending her off to some form of employment. As a result, she is most at home around the upper classes, though Hala aristocracy is still a far cry from the lavishness of their foreign counterparts. Trained in the classical arts of archery, navigation, religion, history, and tailoring, Ameni is considered acceptable enough at what is expected of her that she can be rather confidently introduced to the world.
Likes: Books, learning in general, art, anything foreign, being helpful, a good meal, sailing.
Dislikes: Difficult work, being told what to do, axes in general, overly formal social situations.
What are you taking with you?: Several sets of clothes (primarily traditional ilma, a garment somewhere between a tunic and a dress), the customary bow and sword as gifts, phone and charger, a modest pouch of gold coins, a few books, writing materials, the hittara that she's still never quite figured out how to play.
Other: Ameni may or may not have been sent because her older sister Veli was too busy exploring the far end of the world.

While my nation is clearly communist, might try to fit in an observer or two under an alias.

Yeah they would definitely have to be undercover. Camelone doesn't tolerate Communism.

I don't mind waiting a bit. I look forward to joining!

Okay thank you for your patience.

Hmmm, a duke / duchess from "Yue Dynasty Zhongguo" (haha). Hmmm.

Definitely a Duchess, the High Kingdom would probably not allow any other noble in if they are not female, a servant though would be let in if only one.

We will be time skipping to February 4 in the IC.
