"Magnificence and Machinations"
~ Life at the Sovereign's Court ~



The Imperial Court, a institution where antiquity and modernity met, known for it's complex and sophisticated structure, notable members, and intrigue, the Imperial Court is a cosmopolitan structure of the nobility and the distinguished few, from all parts of Imperia, who form what is essentially the extended household of the sovereign.

In line with ancient practices, the court has invited forage dignitaries and representatives as well as formally accredited all Ambassadors of and accredited to Imperia as members of the court. With this, the Sovereign and her court do graciously invite you, royals, nobles, and affluent dignitaries, to experience life at court and reside in the opulent Anaktoria Palace.


LIFE AT COURT



You (or multiple characters) are a dignitary, having been sent to reside in the Constantine Palace and live at court, for reasons strategic, maybe your family or nation want to strike an alliance, maybe they see Imperia as a good place for en education, maybe you wish to court the many Imperials and Dignitaries at court, or maybe you wish to seek safety, as deposed royals or dignitaries at the court of a global superpower, or maybe you are a spy, sent to involve yourself in the Machinations of court. Whatever your reason may be, you have arrived at Constantinople, where the Court has just moved from Rome.

You first introduce yourself and seek audience with the Sovereign or maybe the Empress-Mother or Grand Empress Dowager. You will then be given your quarters and will have to navigate the web of court intrigues and court life, make allies and observe, plot and scheme, or be righteous, seeking peace and prosperity. Enjoy in the lavish gifts and opulent life, and try to curry favor with the sovereign or join a faction seeking power and fame.

The Court welcomes you, but are YOU ready for the Court?

I M P E R I A
━━━━━━
Imperia is a Constitutional Federal Parliamentary Monarchy, spanning territory from the Lesser Antilles, all the way to New Caledonia, with Imperia proper having territory from the beaches and coasts of Portugal to the mountains and deserts of Iraq. Having two capitals, Rome and Constantinople (formerly Islantbul), Imperia has a GDP of over $18 trillion and a population of 700 million people.


S O V E R E I A N A
━━━━━━━━━━
Julia Caesarina is the Sovereign of Imperia, having risen to the Imperial Purple after the assassination of her father, Emperor Augustus IV "The Illustrious". Under the guidance of her Prime Ministers, the Grand-Empress Dowager, and Empress-Mother, Julia has been able to secure her reign having the highest popularity ratings of any Emperor/Empress of Imperia. Because of this many have begun to refer to her by the epithet of "The Magnificent", for her being a more "modern monarch", having bee seen in casual clothing with her people, rather than secluded in the Opulence of the court and Imperial Palace. Julia served in the Imperial Armed Forces prior, having risen to the rank of Captain before she was recalled to Rome to assume duties as Crown Princess. She is known for having a liking in the Arts and Sports, being a big football and motorsport fan.

Name: Benedictus Thorne
Age: 29 (will turn 30 in three days)
Please note that Thorne is a Royal in exile. His old titles will no longer apply due to seizure long ago by the German government. He still fought and nearly died for his country-land before his disappearance into a work camp in Madagascar. Of course, he still has supporters aboard from various governments and is bankrolled by the Iranian and Chinese states, respectfully.
Title(s): Prince of Bavaria, Brother of Munich. Four-Star General in the German army.
Style: High Prince Benedictus Thorne, Duke of Berlin.
Religion: Catholic.
Personality: Benedictus is extremely patient and prefers to carefully think through every situation before making decisions. He is known for his calm demeanor and thoughtful approach to challenges. However, he also has strong outbursts of rage from PTSD at times.

Languages Spoken: Italian, English, German, Lithuanian, and Mandarin Chinese

House Name: House Thorne
House Armorial: Two Swords Crossed
House Status: Constitutional Monarchy in-charge of Nordheimrr. (Basically the modern equivalent of the German monarchy.)

Short Bio Thorne was born into House Thorne, a noble family known widely in Europe and as a seat at the table of power over Germany. Raised with a strong sense of responsibility, Benedictus received an exceptional education that honed his linguistic and analytical skills. He developed a reputation for being a wise and patient young man, often sought after for his insights in matters of diplomacy and strategy. As he comes of age, he finds himself at a crossroads, balancing his duty to his house with his personal aspirations.

What will he be bringing with him: A well-worn leather journal filled with his thoughts and strategies, a finely crafted emerald necklace (so eyecandy for his neck) passed down through generations, and a set of intricate chess pieces. He also owns a small company in Rome, so he’ll have access to his prized collection of cars.
He carries a large Calvary sword at his hip.

He will have two ‘handlers’, both armed with rifles, and a communication car (a 1957 BMW).

Miscellaneous Information/Special Requests: Benedictus prefers to have a quiet study or library space wherever he resides, where he can retreat to contemplate and strategize.

Appearance: Benedictus has a tall and lean figure, with blonde, wavy hair that falls just above his shoulders. His deep, yellow, eyes reflect his thoughtful nature, and his attire often consists of well-tailored, elegant clothing that befits his noble status.
His hands are rough, with many calluses, and although he wears his cloth well, he prefers leather anyday of the week.

He has enough muscle from war…


Official reason? He’s here solely for business… mayhaps love?
Private reason? Flee from the fucking Reich.

Should this be a continuation or a refresh of "An Imperial Love?"

(I just found this topic again)
