[The Frozen Forest]

⭕️ Warm Hearts ⭕️
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Theme | IC | Theme



You are a Monarch, or a Dictator, a President or a Prime Minister. A lowly Noble or the son of a pedigreed line of Kings. It doesn't matter, irregardless of your rank and status you have received a peculiar letter. At first glance it isn't much, just a regular piece of mail apart from a important looking seal and a small inscription with your name on it. Still it was brought to you with some haste, perhaps now would be a good time to read it?

Addressing all Foreign Heads of State, Nobility or otherwise Interesting Individuals. Presuming you have not stolen or "found" this letter, you have been chosen as someone of great importance in their respective homeland. I am writing this letter to you on behalf of my son, Crown Prince Ivan Bjork of The Frozen Forest. My efforts to convince the Crown Prince to take a bride from one our own Nobility has failed, as such i believe that it is time we allow foreigners the opportunity to court my son. Since the marriage of his sister Freja into the House of Krieger, Camelone's Ruling Dynasty, there has been a growing insistence that he marry, waiting is no longer viable.

Beginning rather soon, we shall allow those ladies in possession of this letter to come and stay in The Royal Palace in the heart of Truvaria, our Capital. Here they shall be treated like Royalty and will be free to court Ivan for the duration of their stay. Truvaria is an ancient and cultured city with numerous points of interest which will make the trip worthwhile irregardless of its outcome, i assure you. In addition to the free time allotted to each young woman, there will be additional time with which they may spend exclusively with the Crown Prince if they so choose.

As mentioned before the purpose of this event will be to select a wife for The Crown Prince. God willing, the Lady who is selected will become the mother of a future King. All ladies will be arriving via plane in Truvaria's National Airport. From there they shall be escorted to The Royal Palace and will meet in the Lobby until all of the guests arrive. At which point Prince Ivan will meet them for the first time to create first impressions. All expenses from the time they get off the plane till their departure will be covered by The Frozen Forestrian Government.

I will include a second paper with some basic information regarding my son. I apologize to any who find this proposition uninteresting though i assure you, it will be an incredibly important event across our nation. When Ivan has decided upon a wife, the ceremony will be conducted in The Frozen Forest. We will cover all costs and will also conduct the ceremony according to Frozen Forestrian customs. I hope to speak with you soon, here in The Frozen Forest.

Cordially,
King Alvor Bjork of The Frozen Forest

[The Frozen Forest]

One further bump..

[Kyrenaia]

Good evening,
if it is not too late, I would like to join this RP as well. Due to the pic being a bit larger, I will spoiler the entire app.

Name:

Amana bint-Samir.

Title(s):

Princess of the Khanate of Jazirat Alshahwa.

Nationality:

Kyrenaian.

House/Family:

House of the Khan of Jazirat Alshahwa.

Family Crest:

N/A.

Place of Birth:

Motya, Khanate of Tanin, Ilkhanate of Utica, Sultanate of Kyrenaia.

Age:

29.

Religion:

Kyrenaian Polytheist.

Languages Spoken:

Kyrenaian, English, German, French.

Travel of Note:

Travelled around the Sultanate a bit, made a foreign study year in the Free Lands of the Selkie, lived in Jazirat Alshahwa for half a year now.

Personality:

Amana is a young woman with a dark wit, a liking for sweets and intelligent. She is active, especially when it comes to her hobbies of fencing and football. She's also a dancer. It speaks for her dedication and will to work, that she, despite having little to no talent for it, became quite a good dancer.
Her negatives are her dark wit, which on quite a few occassions borders on insultingly sarcastic, her breast envy and her stubborn belief in the superiority of the Motya Football Club over all of the other football clubs in the world (they just avoided the relegation into the Third League).

Likes:

Fencing, Football (both watching and playing herself), dancing, sweets (that's an important part, as cliche as it might be).

Dislikes:

Sour food, axeriders, large-breasted women (she dispises Princess Aurelia bint-Damir).

Fears:

Heights, failing her Father.

Bio:

Princess Amana bint-Samir was born in exile: In 1929, the Kyrenaian Colony and Khanate Jazirat Alshahwa made itself independent, her great-grandparents and a lot of her relatives dying in the final uprising as the rebels killed everyone of Kyrenaian descent, who they could get their hands on. With her Grandfather, at the time 15, becoming the Khan of Jazirat Alshahwa, the Exiled Khanate began its life.
Fast forward to 1989: Amana was born in the seat of the Exiled Khanate, Motya, where the rich and powerful of Kyrenaia have their yachts - she was born to Prince Samir ibn-Mustafa, the only possible heir of the office of the Khan of Jazirat Alshahwa. Amana was born as the first of three children, her younger siblings Amir and Rasha being born in 1992 and 1997 respectively.
Attending school from 1995, she decided to not take the entrance exams to one of the Old Academies in 2002, instead choosing to attend the Motya Middle School and the Lugha High School until she graduated in 2008. She especially excelled in languages, chose to join the Fencing Club, choosing the Type 1 Sabre for herself, and was still a relatively regular guest of the Literature Club (on Tuesdays, when the Fencing Club did not convene). She wore the Fustan Raqis Alsyf, the Sworddancer's Dress, in quite a few tournaments, where she competed successfully.
After her graduation, Amana made her Service for two years, serving as a conscript with the 2nd Mechanized Brigade.
From 2010 onwards, she began her studies of Philology and German Philology, achieving her Bachelor Degree in 2014, working on her Master's Degree. In 2016, she made a year abroad in the Free Lands of the Selkie.
Her studies were interrupted in March 2018, when Va'a Mamao became the target of a Kyrenaian Peacekeeping Operation, which also reestablished the Khanate, with her father as the Khan. They returned in May and immediately she attended the meetings of her father with the local power-holders to stabilize the hold. The shift of the local administration staying in local hands and the Khan basically acting as a liason to the Sultan and to the Ilkhanate of Utica was her idea.
From then, she paused her studies to help her Father.

What will you be bringing with you:

Personal effects, clothing, two Kyrenaian Type 1 Sabres, a football ball, her personal laptop (including a set of external loudspeakers), a few books, a present for Ivan.

Miscellaneous Information:

For Kyrenaians, football is what other people call soccer.

[The Hoosier Alliance]

This seems...interesting. I've never done an RP like this before, and am considering applying. But first, some questions.

Is this MT?

If so, does it matter if the woman doesn't come from nobility or isn't some sort of an heir? I was thinking about putting forth the niece of the military dictator of the Hoosier Alliance.

This is indeed MT

That would be acceptable. Being that she is still a person of prominence it makes sense that she would be brought a letter. Do you have any other questions?

Miscellaneous Information:

[Toraia]

My application.

[/floatright]
Name: Kiaris Lukiva
Title(s): Lost Princess (so called because she is a descendant of royalty in a nation that overthrew the monarchy a long time ago; see her bio below)
Nationality: Toraian
House/Family: Usalna
Family Crest:

Place of Birth: Kuna-Salos, northwestern Toraia (the town name translates to Cradle of Kings. Folklore names it as the birthplace of Toraia’s first king. Most modern-day descendants of royal blood live there.)

Age: 23 years (b. April 16, 1995)
Religion: Roman Catholic
Languages Spoken: Toraian, English
Travel of Note: Has made two tours about the entirety of Toraia.
Personality: It is hard to believe that she does not spend her time in the ivory halls of a castle. Kiaris carries herself with all the dignity and demure grace of a princess. She is caring and intelligent, although she is also rather naive. Some also complain that she has an air of the snobbish to her, as if she believes that her ancestry elevates herself above others. Kiaris is ebullient and gregarious, loving to form meaningful relationships with other people. She finds Crown Prince Ivan quite intriguing.
Likes: spacious rooms, warm tea, flowers, birds, riding (in Toraia they ride elk, not horses), painting, handsome men
Dislikes: foul weather, crass people, greasy food
Fears: Anti-monarchical violence, failure, foreboding strangers
Bio: Lady Kiaris Lukiva is a rare breed in her mother country as one of the few remaining zodos rati (“light feet”), descendants of the original royal family of Toraia. Though the monarchy has long since given way to democratic rule, the tradition of blue blood continues to modern times. Nonetheless, the descendants of royalty still teach themselves the arts of etiquette, government, and diplomacy, on the chance that someday, the monarchy may return to Toraia. Kiaris was born to her father Ozmatz and her mother Fidenai in 1995. She has one younger brother, Yatsuen, who is fifteen. She has been formally educated and earned high marks in school. Initially, she resisted the idea of traveling to the Frozen Forest, fearing what might happen in a foreign nation. But then curiosity overtook fear and she was eager to go, to explore the world beyond her homeland. Additionally, this may give her a chance to elevate her family which has been disgraced for more than two hundred years.
Metagaming info:

Toraia is an economically struggling nation, and not even the modern-day descendants of royalty are free from the nation’s curse of poverty. Kiaris will try to hide that she comes from a struggling family, blue-blooded as it may be. For her, her interest in the Crown Prince is not merely emotional, but also fiscal. Marrying Ivan will secure a stable financial future for the house of Lukiva, and perhaps give an economic boost to the whole of Toraia as well.

What will you be bringing with you: One suitcase of personal baggage, a mobile phone to contact home, a few books, and her family’s servant Hikatka Harvor.
Miscellaneous Information: Here is a portrait of Kiaris. Fear not; the lost princess has shoes. Going barefoot is traditionally a sign of privilege and nobility in Toraia.

Personality: shy, reserved, sympathetic
Likes: reading, swimming, cooking, drawing
Dislikes: intrusive people, lack of privacy
Fears: her powers turning against her and/or hurting innocents, clowns
Bio: Ahin was born from a human, non-powered Korean concubine and Heavenly Emperor Cheonsa himself, thus making her a "starchild", or a hybrid betwern a Celestial and a non-Celestial, thus explaining her powers. She has been trained to use said powers to help others since she awakened to them at the age of 14 and has been a superheroine since the age of 15. The mysterious and unpredictable nature of her powers made her an excellent choice whenever the Imperial Government needs a one-woman army. She does, however, prefer a peaceful life and doesn't like too much excitement.

Outside of her combat duties, she is active in volunteering, especially for children. She graduated from a Beijing university and moved to Seoul afterwards, working as a freelance writer when her father doesn't need her fighting phlebotinum-powered bad guys.

What will you be bringing with you: books, clothes, phone, sketchbook and drawing tools

[The Hoosier Alliance]

Name: Rita Jones
Title(s): N/A
Nationality: Hoosier
House/Family: N/A
Family Crest: N/A
Place of Birth: Indianapolis, Indiana

Age: 23
Religion: Catholicism
Languages Spoken: English, Spanish, Russian
Travel of Note: She has traveled all around the Hoosier Alliance, but not anywhere else.
Personality: Rita can be an abrasive person, something she picked up from her time spent with military men during her childhood. She's not quick to warm up to others and is rather independent. Rita is quiet, until you get to know her. Once she decides that she enjoys you, or that she doesn't, she'll be pretty open. She likes to play the guitar and hear others play any kind of instrument, but hates dancing. She's up front with her beliefs, especially her political ones. Sparring is another past time of hers, though many that she knows frowns upon it.
Likes: Music, comedies, video games, animals, jogging, debates, and intelligent, funny, brave men.
Dislikes: Dancing, romantic movies, pansies, physically weak men, and leftists
Fears: Disappointing her uncle, the dark
Bio: Rita Jones was born in Indianapolis, the capital of the Hoosier Alliance. When she was seven her parents were killed in a bombing committed by communist terrorists in St. Louis. She was sent to live with her father's brother, Brandon Jones. Her uncle is the dictator of the Hoosier Alliance and instilled in her a sense of respect, duty, and love of God and country. She went to the finest school in the country, excelling in many subjects, particularly history, foreign language, and chemistry. Rita spent much of her free time with her uncle, who she considers more of a father, and has picked up some "bad habits" from him and the military men that surround him. Throughout her life, Rita has trained in hand to hand fighting, to the dismay of her traditional uncle. While she swims against the current on the traditional roles of women her uncle tries to convince her of, she has mostly followed in his footsteps on matters of policy. From the age of fifteen, Rita has trained with firearms as well, mostly hunting weapons. Her social life has been rather limited with her living in the Hoosier capitol under constant guard from outside threats. Her dating life has therefore suffered, with few interactions of the romantic kind. Rita isn't completely sure of doing this, but isn't against giving it a shot.
What will you be bringing with you: Laptop, some books, spare clothes, and the small decorative knife her uncle gifted her in it's engraved sheath.

Well, Ivan is a non-practicing Catholic and there's a Kyrenaian Polytheist in the race... safe to say, that you could at least throw your hat into the ring.
