Arranged Mariage Simulation - A Daughter's Duty

[Shut Up Juliet]

I would like to start by saying that while all the players will play young women getting ready to prepare for their future marriage all are invited, thet they may be male, female or inbetween.

Now that that's done, I wanter to try something centered around a princess-like theme where all of you will take the role of the nanny of a young noblewoman of fifteen years of age, where five years will be left to you to find the best match and station for her. If anyone know the game Long Live the Queen, this will be a bit like that, though obliviously less deadly. Though this will take into account arranged marriage, I hope for this to be lighthearted, with plenty of time to shape your little maiden into a proper lady or a girlish knight in shining armor as you and her initial temperament and personality wishes.

Each round will be one week, where you will play out your meeting with your charge and prepare her for her lessons and events for the next week. The first week will be when you are hired, and this is where you will start the building of your relationship with your little princess.

Six spots will be available, and a minimum of two will be needed for this to start, so please don't hesitate to ask me about this or state your interest!

Not yet certain if I'll join, but I did love Long Live the Queen...

Do you have any mechanics in mind?

Would we play both the nanny and the princess?

Do you expect it to have a multiplayer component, i.e. the princesses in question interacting in some ways?

[Shut Up Juliet]

Starting for bottom up...

Yes, the events will be available to be multiplayers, and in these event it's the princess you will take control of. As for the mechanics, I see it as each day being two activities, with two slots per events per week. The normal activities will be summarised each day with a cooldown period. Finally, each event would take anywhere for a sole slot to a whole day depending on the event and current plot.

[von_das]

Right. I'm just a bit confused since I thought the game being in this section would imply it having more in the way of dice rolls and stats and such? Though I'm not sure if it's a strict requirement.

Do you have a particular setting in mind?

[Shut Up Juliet]

Oh, there will be stats, and rolls would be when things are risky, so I think it still fit. But I would no doubt change it if it doesn't?

As for the setting, think Louis era France.
