Political intrigue/drama/low fantasy/Mature rating and themes (3/3/3)




If you're looking for a partner where you can build a plot with lots of political intrigue with lots of secrets, character development in a low fantasy setting with active side characters being involved within the story, this might be the place for you to check. The theme is the princess being taken away by force from the king as a tool for the bargain against her own father. However, there's far more depth in this story than this short opening paragraph can lead on. For more information, please continue reading.

Note: Your character doesn't need to be human. It can be a fantastical race. I will personally choose to play a human, but in case you have a preference regarding the race, kingdom's culture, ethnicity, religion and way of life - know that it is entirely open for you to interpret it. So you have complete freedom in making the kingdom, their lifestyle and other aspects. I will do the same to stuff related to MC.​

I am also open to discuss the direction of the plot and other elements.


A bit about me:

- Multi paragraph advanced writer
- In love with in-depth posts, writing emotion and more psychological aspects has always been my strong point
- I will always make side characters, even go as far as to have special roleplaying parts in the story without my main character and instead playing those side characters to build up the plot. I make small character sheets for them, so rest assured that there will be a lot of content here. I also make specific sheets and quick info dumps about the locations and other aspects tied to it (such as religions, lifestyles, societal standards and anything I deem as important to be added)
- I like to make the world feel lived in, as well making characters already established people within the world
- My main characters are never outright good people and I love to express their flaws more than merits, whatever those may be
- I will always do adult content, so if you're uncomfortable with anything that is 18+ which also may include some vicious violence and really heavy themes that might be taboo, I'm not a writer for you. No fading to black, either
- I roleplay in PMs only

What I look for:

- Writers who understand the process of a slowburn in every sense. In plot, character development, relationships and other scenes, the build up is 70% good storytelling, so the reveal and climax feels like a big deal in every sense
- I don't need partners to match my level of dedication and effort, I just want people to put their own effort and spice into things
- Someone who is good at writing and executing mind games between characters would be preferable, but not outright necessary
- Someone who's more advanced in roleplaying and gives some quality posts and loves character development
- Discussing OOCly with me and keeping up the hype
- Writers comfortable with heavy and adult content as stated in my previous points about me

Theme of the plot:

YC is the prince, a son among the other sons, who doesn't have to be necessarily the next in line to be the king, but among his brothers, he is well-versed in fighting. He can be the favorite son with a lot of pressure and high standards put on him, or he can be the problematic son who is rebellious and does things his own way despite what his parents want, it is entirely up for you to choose his position in the family. But he has a mission - his father, the king, has started a war with his old friend, another king, that being MC's father, for unclear reasons. True, there has been political tension in the past decade or so, but the decision to start a war was quite surprising. Still, nobody can deny king's orders, so his capable sons would be sent off to prove themselves worthy strategists and warriors/knights by conquering the kingdom. However, YC's father made it clear - don't kill the king. One can only be the true victor when the opposing party admits the defeat. There's no victory or honor killing a man by force - that is not the true display of power. And for a prince to bring a king to such a position would heavily boost YC's reputation and credibility in the eyes of his father and the people, as well.

MC is the oldest daughter and second oldest child in the family. Only getting along with her older brother and youngest sister, she hasn't been having too much luck in being accepted in father's kingdom, especially because of the way she looked and what it meant to her late mother's kingdom. Blood red hair and golden eyes were not common features one would find, but in the legends of her mother's kingdom, that was the pure bloodline of extinct dragons and MC is the last woman to have the features that indicated fiery blood, next to her living uncle. And living in cold north in her father's kingdom, she cannot fit in, especially not after her mother's death. Looking so much like his late wife, the king in the north cannot stand his daughter, seeing her as a form of an impostor. Rumors circulated within the castle walls that the king has gone mad, but no one ever confirmed it, given that the symptoms of his madness are unusual. Some even went as far as to blame magic, even though the existence of it is only a superstition.

With her dear older brother being the next in line to be the king and also a knight, he taught her swordfighting in secret, which was extremely frowned upon in the north for women to practice any type of fighting, however, little did she know it'll serve her great use...

When the kingdom is sieged by YC and his army, they will manage to break through and get to the castle to face the king after breaking down his defenses and force him to surrender. But this will be the first time the king will show some form of instability - he will throw his sons into a battle he knew will cost them their lives just so he doesn't admit defeat.

The oldest son steps in to fight YC to protect his own father, the two will match in with their power, but MC's brother will already be exhausted at this point and at a clear disadvantage. This is where MC will storm out with her own sword, without armor, to defend her brother with her life and spare him of their father's madness in mighty rage. YC realizing that he cannot kill the king, given that those were the orders, in the heat of the moment decides its best to (easily) defeat the inferior princess in a spar and take her away, with hopes that the king will drop the act there.

However, YC ends up dragging the angry princess away without the king even bothering to stop him and deciding to present her as an optional bargaining (perhaps even a blackmailing) tool against the king, given that her father would not admit defeat, even after he's been stripped off of everything. It should be easy, right? The king's army was defeated, the kingdom was left in ruin, he just needed to be pushed further in order to finally admit defeat. But things are not the way they seem.

She's being held captive in YC's kingdom, how she would be treated there is open for interpretation. At first, MC will be absolutely furious with YC for doing what he's done to her, but also for hurting her brother. The princess is a woman with a vicious tongue and fiery anger, and with the position she is in, she's not pleasant to deal with (who would be?) Their dynamic is open for us to interpret. But also, while she is there, truths of their fathers' relationships and reasons to why this war was necessary to start in this way will unfold themselves. Truth about MC's bloodline and the mysteries behind her kingdom will slowly reveal themselves, as well as many other elements we wish to touch on and add! I am more than happy to discuss all the ideas for a very interactive and deep story!

Now, why don't you entice me a bit with your ideas and send me a PM with something very interesting regarding this plot? If you don't do this, I'm not gonna consider about writing with you. I'm very picky, I admit.
