Inspired by a Steam game of the same name, although not within the same continuity, this roleplay takes place in a kingdom that just lost it's king to a sickness. Either a king or queen can be the supreme ruler depending on the gender of the child who's eligible (there are no strict gender roles). Although there are two others in front of her eligible to the thrown, they do not take it for whatever reason and it's instead up to a young, inexperienced girl to become the new queen once she turns 18 in a month. Taking advantage of her age, there are those who wish to manipulate her impressionable mind into becoming their puppet. Luckily there are those who wish to aid her in becoming the greatest queen. Then there are those who wish her dead.
Where will you fall in that spectrum? The choice is yours and you can keep your true motivations secret, plotting our downfall from the shadows. You can be any character who will interact with the upcoming queen (or otherwise find a good way to get involved with the plot), which will be a huge range because she has a lot of interaction with commoners and royalty alike. Some people might not like it, but she might even allow her commoner friends around the castle and such. You can be rivals (which might even be her other siblings she is ahead of in the bid for the throne), assassins, mentors, other royalty, butlers, guards, friends, etc.
Most of the roleplay will be everyday life of these individuals as everyone carries out their own plans involving the upcoming queen. There will be some action such as when assassins attack or wars are declared, but most of the time it won't be like game of thrones where everyone is cutting each others heads off all the time. If you leave the roleplay then your character may be assassinated, however.
As for how impressionable the upcoming queen is, I will allow her to be manipulated into many different roles, giving you guys some serious ability to impact not only by your own actions but through hers as well as she follows your lead. For example, if you do a great job convincing her to be ruthless then she might end up that way, but most of the time she'll try to be good. You don't have to spend every post talking to the upcoming queen even if that is the main plot. You guys can also just be talking amongst themselves a lot and coming up to her at your own discretion. After all, not everyone would be crowded around her all the time. That would actually get rather annoying.
There will be magic, but at the moment there's discrimination against magic users. I may or may not have other fantasy races involved as well, depending on what you guys think about that.
Anyone interested? If so then drop by here and say what job you want so it can be reserved for you if it's a one of a kind thing. Most jobs can be held by multiple people such as guards, so if that's the case you don't need to feel rushed to claim the position but it would still be nice just in case and people will know what other positions still don't have anything.
