“I’ve heard that the local people are very unhappy” said Beatrice with a frown. “I hope nothing comes of it.” She was thinking not only of herself, but also of her queen. Uprisings tended to result in the death of royals.

borncrowncd:

hearing the news of the countries coming to visit, the princess was glad to have the bodies filling the castle. the last six years had been tough, seeming to draw the life from the residents. but the influx of people, of laughter, it brought a light that the castle hadn’t seen in a while. it still did nothing for the dark cloud that hung over her head, but she was trying at least. 

sitting alone, the german princess cast a look down at the plate of food before her and gently pushed it away, still having no appetite. she’d rather be in her chambers but with the guests, she had to show face these days.

Daniel stood in the corner of the room. He was close enough to be nearby if the princess needed him, but not so close as to be mistaken as part of the group. This was his role in life. As he watched her, he couldn’t help but observe that she wasn’t eating again. He supposed it was because of the grief she felt. Having watched her grow up into a young woman, he couldn’t help but feel protective of his princess. He wanted to say something to comfort her. But, knowing that would be seen as out of line (especially while she was in front of guests) he said nothing. He would wait for her to indicate she wanted him.

Having grown up in Norway, Sven was used to the cold weather. But he could sympathize with the princess. “I suppose it is, compared to what you’re used to” he said. “Sometimes I wish it was summer all the time.” He nodded his head in agreement with her followup statement. “War is awful. For people on all sides.”.

(charles michael davis, he/him.) i heard that daniel hoffman is a queen's guard from germany. here at german court. over their thirty years of being alive, people will tell you that they’re charming and chivalrous, but some whisper that they’re actually impulsive and temperamental.  i’ve also heard that they’re for the crown. i wonder what’s the truth? only time will tell.

His father is a nobleman

He is the youngest of several sons

Knowing he would never inherit from his father, he joined the military upon coming of age

After a few years, he was offered a job as a guard for the royal family

He was supposed to be a guard for the late king of Germany, but the king passed him off onto Crown Princess Zelda when she was still very young

He basically watched the princess grow from a child into a young woman and is protective of her as a result

He is a real ladies’ man, and has charmed the skirts off women of all social standings

But he also treats the women in his life well and knows how to keep his conquests a secret in order to protect the ladies’ reputations

He is quick to anger, particularly when someone has insulted him, his family, or his princess

He doesn’t always think about the consequences of his actions before acting, especially when he is angry

If anyone wants to plot, I’ll be around for a while. I’ve got Lady Beatrice Ferrara (intro here) and King Sven Sorensen (intro here).

Hi! So I posted both my intros, then realized I never introduced myself. I’m Lauren. I’m 28 and I live in EST. I use she/her pronouns. I’m in a few roleplays and am also admin of one I’m trying to get started. I have discord, so if you ever want to chat/plot on there, let me know.

(toby regbo, he/him.) here ye, here ye! king sven sorensen has just arrived at court. they’ve traveled a long way from norway. over their twenty-five years of being alive, people will tell you that they’re honest and idealistic, but some whisper that they’re actually naive and vulnerable. i wonder what’s the truth? only time will tell.

He was never supposed to be heir to the throne, but the two brothers who were born before him both died when a great illness swept through their kingdom

He became the king at only twenty-four when his father died from an infection

He always tries to do the right thing and thinks the best of everyone

Unfortunately, this can lead to him being taken advantage of

He believes honesty is always the best policy, which means the people with less than pure intentions can predict what he is going to do

He has a younger brother as well as a sister

He prefers reading and learning to hunting and war planning

He is betrothed to Princess Juliet McCarthy from Ireland

Although he wishes he could marry for love, he knows it is his duty to what is best for his country

He also knows that he wants to be a good husband

(rose williams, she/her.) i heard that beatrice ferrara is a lady in waiting from italy. here at german court. over their twenty-two years of being alive, people will tell you that they’re sweet and dedicated, but some whisper that they’re actually shy and passive.  i’ve also heard that they’re for the crown. i wonder what’s the truth? only time will tell.

Her father is Italian and her mother is Russian

She grew up in Russia, as one of the closest friends of Queen Davina Sokolov

She speaks Russian and Italian fluently

She is probably the sweetest of Davina’s ladies and she is very loyal her queen

She is also incredibly shy and hates to make the first move in any situation

She is the oldest of several girls, and feels a lot of pressure because of the fact that her father has no male heirs

Although her family is by no means poor, she wishes to bring more honor to them by marrying well

She often spends her time worrying about the reputation of her queen and trying to get Davina to focus on activities she views as proper for a lady of her station (like reading and sewing)

But she also knows that her queen will do what she wants

Although she is reluctant to admit it, she actually enjoys a lot of the wilder things Davina has gotten her to do (things she would never have the courage to do on her own)
