A Ball not Easily Forgotten (OOC/Signups)

Postby Sanguille » Tue Jun 14, 2022 11:54 pm

The Lady of Ten Thousand Nights, Queen Stefania-Maria Bianca Francesca Oliviera II of Sanguille, formally invites you to Her Majesty's ball in The Soverign Palace to commemorate the 19th birthday of Princess Sofia-Camila.

Congratulations on being invited to the ball! The royal family of Sanguille hopes that you have a wonderful time.

Good morning, Sanguille,
a few questions before I might app:
1. You write, that any applicant must be at least Baron/ess in terms of ranks of nobility. Does that automatically exclude non-nobility? And what about plus-ones?
2. What Techlevel (MT, PMT, FanT, etc.) will this be?
3. Is there a dress code?
4. What is Princess Sofia like anyway?

Thanks in advance for any answer to these questions!

mfg,
Selks
I play PT, MT and a bit FT. I am into character-RPs.
My people are called the Selkie, the nation is usually called the Free Lands in MT-settings. Thanks.

is there any limitation on how recently the rank was granted

Sorry, this is only the second RP I've ever made, so I forgot to include some things.

1. Non-nobility is only allowed if they are a plus-one.
2. I don't know what any of those acronyms mean, but I imagine this having 50's era technology.
3. There isn't a particular theme, but those invited are expected to dress formally.
4. You'll find out!

Don't worry, it'll be alright.
1. Okay, that can be arranged.
2. MT is Modern Tech (basically everything we have today), PMT is Post-Modern Tech (think of five-minutes-into-the-future scenarios), FanT is Fantasy Tech (Lord of the Rings is a classic example, but things like Strike Witches or Shipgirls like in Kantai Collection can be counted under that as well), PT is Past Tech, FT is Future Tech (basically Science Fiction Tech). By your words, I presume, that this RP will be PT. Will Fantasy Elements, like shipgirls and Strike Witches, be allowed?
3. Fair enough.
4. Okay.

Name: Henry James Francis Gordon-Lennox
Title: Earl of March and Kinrara (heir to the Dukedom of Richmond)
Age: 26
Gender: Male
Physical Description: Henry is a tall and handsome young man with athletic physique and deep blue eyes. He has long blonde hair and a thin beard, all of which add to his charm.
Background: He was born as the only son to the 12th Duke and Duchess of Richmond. From a very young age, he was showered with all sorts of luxury that the ordinary folks can only dream off. He was sent to Eton School, and from there to went to the Oxford University and did his masters in Engineering there. After passing out, he returned to the family estate of Brentwood and became a professional polo player. He suffered a serious injury to his left leg while competiting in a tournament, and was thus forced by his father to retire from the sport, which he did this year, Henry had always been a rather shy individual, shyness being a trait that does not suits the members of the Galimencian aristocracy. So to prepare for his role as the next Duke of Richmond and to make him experienced in the matters of 'high society', he was sent by his father to attend the ball in Sanguille as a representative of Galimencia.

Name: "Rota"
Title: Margrave of the Baltic Sea; Lady and Governess over the Coasts, over the Three Islands, and over Gdansk Bay and the Vistula Lagoon; Knight of the Commonwealth.
Age: Claims to have been born in the 1930s.
Gender: F
Physical Description: A severe-looking woman in her late 20s. Black uniform and uniform coat with the stripes of a Komandor podporucznik, or Lieutenant Commander, as well as medals(mostly from America, France, and Prussia-Poland) consistent with a decorated veteran of the Second World War. A single, slightly dulled, hand-and-a-half sword and associated scabbard, hanging from her belt.
Background: Claims extensive service in both the Atlantic and Pacific theatres of WW2 in the service of the Commonwealth's Navy. Is extremely secretive about her deeds post-war. It should be noted that Prussia-Poland is under a Communist government as of 1945(presuming this takes place in 1950~), though a strong anti-communist insurgent movement and underground government persists.
Picture of Character (optional): This in no way captures what she is wearing but does approximate her apperance.

Name: "Błyskawica"/"Blazes"
Title: Lady of Gdynia and Governess over the Port and Bay of Królewiec.
Age: Claims to have been born in the 1930s.
Gender: F
Physical Description: A bright-eyed woman in her early 20s. Black uniform and uniform coat with the stripes of a Porucznik marynarki, or Sub-Lieutenant, medals(mostly from America, France, and Prussia-Poland) consistent with a decorated veteran of the Second World War. A sword-bayonet and associated scabbard, hanging from her belt.
Background: Rota's batman/orderly. Like her superior, has claimed extensive service in both the Atlantic and Pacific theatres of WW2 in the service of the Commonwealth's Navy, and is just as tight-lipped about her deeds post-war. It should again be noted that Prussia-Poland is under a Communist government as of 1945(presuming this takes place in 1950~), though a strong anti-communist insurgent movement and underground government persists.
Picture of Character (optional): Please stand by...

Notes: In case you haven't caught on -- ship-spirits. Not that your characters would know, at first, though, presuming they ever find out.
