A Coronation and Gala (OOC|Signups)

[The Papaya]

Princess Elaine Alaka'i is to have her coronation on April 7, 2020. She has requested suitors to make an appearance at the Gala following. Supper will be provided, and she will make a personal appearance.

Elaine also requests that guards be kept to a minimum, and that while minor disagreements are fine all major issues, such as proclamations of war, be left on the porch. It is to be a happy, joyous moment.

The ballroom:

Adjacent Dining Hall

I'd say four's a good number for the guards, but do whatever feels comfortable to you. Just don't say more than 15. Feel free to ask any questions! Here's the application:

Good afternoon, Papaya,
I am interested, but short question time:

1. What can you tell us about Elaine? Looks, interests, age?
2. What can you tell us about the country she will be ruling? Things like climate or culture or... whatever you can think of!
3. Who will be present from your side, who will be of note? Government officials, industrial bosses, military leaders, such things?
4. If I participate in this one, I plan to send one of my Ambassador Groups and a few business representatives. They will wear Geansai, which is made, among other things, from fur of formerly living animals. Are there any laws, which would prohibit wearing fur? If yes, my people will come in appropriate white tie attire, so it mostly serves for the cultural flair.

Thank you for your replies!

Dear me, I can't believe I did that! I'll edit the op in the morning, as it's late for me. Thank you for pointing out my errors.

It's been such a long while since I dropped into these parts and properly participated (as my twice-deleted main nation Dahon) that I might as well join this RP (through a remake of that, as well as this puppet), of course after Selkie's questions are answered.

You're welcome and I'll stay tuned, then! ; )

Yeah, I like it here. It's a cool place with cool people. Plus, we were in a few RPs together. You were even at one of my Spring Festivals, way back when...
Though papaya is delicious, too, so how about we slice it up and share? ; ) I'm kidding, I'm kidding... though am I?

I'll still keep around, at least until I hear from OP or it dies naturally.

And by "virus" you mean the Big Ploog?
