Intro:

This RP is based loosely off of the game Choices (available in Google Play or the App store if you’re interested in playing). In the Crown & The Flame there are 5 kingdoms that come together to form an alliance but they are betrayed by one of the kingdoms who slaughters all of the other monarchs. The heir of the kingdom who originally sought this alliance goes into hiding along with the others and bides her time to take her kingdom back. She eventually does regain her kingdom and unites the 5 kingdoms in time to defend them from a larger threat (and eventually can marry one of her companions). I tried getting this started as a 1x1 but have had a hard time so far so perhaps it makes for a better group rp.

Players will play as one of the heirs to the kingdoms who are coming together for an alliance. While romance will be involved in the RP there will be plenty of action, hence the 18+ tag. In the character sheet you will notice there is a spot for your intended romantic partner, you don’t need to have that filled out right away and it could change during the course of the RP. For now, sexual orientation is all you will need to put there so players know which characters their character can pursue. I will not assign pairings nor are they required but I do encourage players upon their characters being accepted collabing with other players as far as romance goes if they are interested in one of the other accepted characters.

The Kingdoms:

Khilux is mostly desert and so the people are hardy, used to harsh conditions. They are the poorest of the kingdoms but world renown for their warriors. They are a proud people who are easily offended when outsiders call them barbarians for their tribal lifestyle, even though they have large cities like any other Kingdom.


Nelia is the richest Kingdom but has no military to speak of. They have city guards and such in their cities and a royal guard but their borders are protected by their larger (military wise) neighbor, Dribia. They cover a large geographical portion of the world, housing many mountains that provide them with heaps of gold, silver and other precious gems and ores. The nobility of Nelia spend a great deal of time obsessing over the social season in the country, making sure they are up on the latest fashion trends, no matter how silly.


This country is not available to players as this royal family will serve as the villain. They are a tumultuous people as they are constantly at war. They have the strongest military out of all the kingdoms and had a poor reputation among the other kingdoms. Military service is compulsory even when not at war for at least five years. Many stay in the military as it pays the best. The people of Vapridora are heavily taxed to afford the wars the blood thirsty royal family is after.


The smallest of all the kingdoms Dribia is a nice mix economically and militarily compared to the other kingdoms. They have the largest library in the world and encourage a lot of the sciences and arts.

(Reserved for GM character as far as the heir goes for this nation)

Arolanians are a mountainous people and are rumored to have a formidable army but no one knows for sure as there is no known record of their kingdom having ever gone to war. They dwell in the mountains incorporating the mountain peaks of their geography as protection for their cities. They have world renown smith’s, crafting the hardest steel and the most ornate blades.

@codex
I feel like this will be sort of a stupid question but what certain roles are the players allowed to portray? Also, is knowledge of the game required?

@HushedWhispersNot stupid at all. You can fulfill any role youd like but if unsure ask and I'll let you know. Knowledge of the game is not required as it's based loosely off the game but does not otherwise have anything else to do with the game.

Okay, last question, I promise. Haha. What roles need to be filled? Might want to make a section within the OP, just a mere suggestion though. :)

@HushedWhispers I will update the original post when I get home from work but in short, the other heirs to the kingdoms (you do not have to be first in line to the throne but do know your older siblings will either abdicate or come to an untimely end). You can also be a commoner, an assassin, thief or mercenary if you don't want to play as royalty. I am reserving one of the royalty spots for my own DM controlled character but I will likely add another kingdom so as not to limit players current choices.

Could we maybe get a map or something?
As for "intended romance partners", that puts early sign-ups in a tight spot since they don't exactly have a main cast to choose from, and some players prefer to let things happen organically.

@Azereiah As soon as I can get a map up, I will. As for the intended romance, you are not required to pick anyone and I included it because of incidents in previous RPs where a player was okay with being flirty but got really pissed off that the character they were flirting with kissed their character because they didn't want to go that far. It's not required to use but does allow players to state if they're collaborating that part of the RP with another player.

I am definitely interested! I have a rough idea for a Khilux heir. I'll start putting together a character sheet now! :)

Aah, that makes sense. I'll suggest including a way to indicate whether a player is open (and partnerless) or closed to romance.

@Azereiah I updated the character sheet with the following field:

[b]Sexual Orientation/Is your character available romantically:[/b]

Let me know if there is anything you'd like to change before I officially post it in the character tab! :)

I'll wait until we get a little bit more lore up before posting a CS. I've got some ideas cranking through my head, though. :)

@codex I'm sorry, not really, but I don't get it.. How are we supposed to romantically intertwine like snails during mating season if we are in different kingdoms?

The heir of the kingdom who originally sought this alliance goes into hiding along with the others

They come together initially, get backstabbed, and have to hide together until they can go kick ass.

@Azereiah Ahhh, so a snail orgy. I'm down for that ;)

@Bishop@Seravee Accepted

@Azereiah Is there specific lore you're looking for? Beyond what's currently posted I have not done too much world building so that players can feel like they get to build the world and the story along with it.

If there are any immediately preceding major wars, that could be important. Geography is also a big deal, too. Where is each nation located, really?

Magic, etc. a thing at all?

There have been multiple wars, usually between Vapridora and other kingdoms. The reason all of the kingdoms are coming together to discuss an alliance is there is a new threat from the East that threatens them all and they will likely fail to defend against it unless united. As far as geography, I am still working on the map. All of the kingdoms are on the same continent.

Arolnan is to the far north west of the continent, their Kingdom is almost entirely made up of mountain ranges. South of Aronlnan is Nelia, making up the central part of the continent. To the east of Aronlan is Dribia, they make up a lot of the forest and wetlands of the continent. Khilux is the desert region to the south. Vapridora is in the north east part of the continent and has a strong navy since they have a lot of coast line.

Magic is not a thing in this world.
