I didn't write RSVPs for the bodyguards. I'll get my post up then write them if that's okay.

Hey! So, per our festival tourist guide, I was thinking of having Lord Ed attend a performance of The Nutcracker at Place Des Arts. Anyone want to join and make it an opportunity to get some character RP going? Maybe we run into each other before or after the event?

Potentially, once I'm done with Rasputin's lobby interactions and do a few days worth of timeskip. Waiting on Karevka to make his post.

Since our characters are already a bit acquainted, sure why not.

I posted Rasputin's arrival. I also had him grab a seat in one of the front loges - feel free to let me know whether or not you want him to end up in the same one as Ed.

Just a friendly reminder that for the remainder of the week there are no events planned for this Roleplay, up until the main ball event on December 20th.

If you're feeling bored, I suggest using this downtime as personal time with your characters. Stop being Justin Trudeau at the G20s and make some friends. There are numerous bars, taverns, heritage sites, a damn skating rink in the backyard. I will gladly supplement any and all of your activities as per necessary.

Rapture City

  • In the underwater city, two roles have emerged from the City's ongoing civil war: the City Monitors who defend the peace and the Red Caps who fight against unjust systems. The city's infrastructure is crumbling under its own weight and kinship is snuffed by the paranoia of totalitarianism. Yet the people would be in for a surprise as their virtual overlord have died many years ago as the oppression continues under his name...
  • Not an 1-1 exact replica of Bioshock lore and Rapture City. Only the city's atmosphere and setting is maintained.

Responded!

Also, feel free to join the conversation, Yegla, if you would like! I'm sure a traditional king and a leader of a pseudo-socialist state would start some interesting conversation lol.

And, sounds good Skyhooked! The Nutcracker is a fun show for all world leaders!

Postby A l b i o n » Sun Dec 15, 2019 4:34 pm

R.S.V.P


Basic Information
Full Name:
    Artoria Britannica Alexandra
Full Title:
    Her Most Augustness Artoria the Just, by the might of Sol the First of Her Name, Empress and Autocrat of All the Romans and Celts, Lord of the Isles, Wielder of Caledfwlch, The Sword of Sol, Hero of the Circle, Blood of Alexander, Defender of the Faith.
Appearance:
Gender:
    Female
Marital Status:
    Unwed
Date of Birth and Age:
    17 December, age 38
Personality/Biography:
    Artoria is the firstborn daughter of the former monarch Julius XIV and Empress Mother Ffraid, a Brittonic Celt. She was Born in the Purple, of the tribe Britannica and the house of Alexandricus whom claim descent from the Macedonian Alexander the Great along with other great figures of Albion’s past. From an early age she was placed under the custodianship of imperial courtiers and tutors, educated in the arts of stewardship and martial matters, though she excelled more in her martial lessons. She was taught to speak French, Russian, and German alongside her native Latin and Brittonic.

    The rest of her teenaged years were filled with more education and becoming familiar with the duties, ceremonies and behaviour expected of a monarch, especially the claimant of the Third Rome. She was enrolled into the imperial military at 18, being deployed as an infantrywoman to the imperial garrison in Abyssinia and later the main imperial base in Italy. Artoria was recalled back to her family when she was 21, soon after enduring a pagan ritual at a holy site in Alba/Caledonia as part of her journey into adulthood.

    Artoria would return to military service until the abdication of her father, with Artoria taking the throne shortly after.
Date of Arrival:
    Her Most Augustness is set to arrive Monday 16 December.
Length of Stay:
    The Empress is set to stay for the whole event, leaving upon the conclusion of the Winter Ball. She will remain in Quebec for her 39th birthday.
Do You Agree To Respect Quebecois Laws and Customs?:
    Yes.

National Information
Nationality:
    Rhufeiniad (Roman). The people of Albion consider themselves Roman citizens but ethnic Celts, English or Latins.
Representing:
    The Senate and People of Albion, also known as the Empire of Albion. Her Most Augustness will also be representing the grand house of Alexandricus and the imperial dynasty.
National/Royal Anthem:
    Her Most Augustness requests the most esteemed Québécois orchestra play the imperial national anthem titled "Light of Albion".

Security Information
Security Detail:
    Her Most Augustness will be accompanied by 2 Prætorian Guards of the 1st Household Division. They will be garbed in Roman dress uniform.
Security Armaments:
    Both Prætorian Guards are to be armed with 2x batons and 2x semi-automatic concealed carry pistols.
Ceremonial Weapons:
    Her Most Augustness is to carry the ancestral weapon Caledfwlch.

Optional Information
Likes:
    Her Most Augustness is a patron of the arts and enjoys viewing historical artefacts, works of art and national treasures. She is naturally most enthusiastic about classical statues or artwork depicting battles. She is also a fan of classical music, though she prefers her own people’s collection of Roman and Celtic music pieces. Historical sites and occurrences intrigue Artoria greatly, and the company of fellow Romans please her.
Dislikes:
    Artoria holds a great distaste towards blatant hedonism, vulgar language, anti-pagans and dishonourable acts. Abrahamist zealots and fanatic republicans are two kinds of people she can rarely stand though her patience allows her the clarity to ignore or walk away from such annoyances. She dislikes beer and most other alcohol despite her heritage.
Hobbies:
    Artoria enjoys reading, duelling and hunting as her primary hobbies. She rarely has time for such recreation, however, by nature of her position.
IC Thoughts On The Event:
    The Empire considers the event noteworthy and interesting to say the very least. Authentic balls are a rare if not long gone occurrence, particularly in Europe.
IC Reasons for Attending The Event:
    The Empire wishes to understand the Québécois and learn about Albion’s foreign competitors, in the hopes of gaining new knowledge and a gateway to future relations with Quebec amongst other nations.
OOC Thoughts On The Event:
    It’s pretty cool and honestly something different from the usual war RP nonsense.
OOC Reasons for Attending The Event:
    To improve my RP skills.
Questions/Comments/Concerns:
    N/A

In my country's canon there is currently a supposed separatist terrorist named Robespierre(not his actual name but what he goes by and is known as) and I'd like him to meet Cleone in Montreal since he sort of serves as a foil to the king's anti-secessionist attitude. Maybe involved for a moment but not for the overall event or anything like the rebel plot. Would I still have to RSVP?

Depends. If you want him here legally, yes. If he snuck over the border or something then no. Also, do you have a factbook for this Robespierre?

He's a separatist terrorist, not a criminal, he'd be there legally. As to a factbook, no I do not have one. I have tabs on a ton of different stories and all of them are in my head. Which is probably a bad idea because I wrote a short to explore how the engagement of Cleone and Cecile came to be, this was weeks before this RP and then I lost it. I was writing it on NS posting thing and I lost it. Also blocks and school and stuff slowed me down.
