Long Live The King!

I'm not one to judge the quality of a CS from its length but I believe there is plenty of room you can expand on for yours.

Long Live The King!

Feel free to post CSes here.

I've recently realized people get way more into the interest check if they can immediately make the CS >_>.

Would you like to do this via PM or have a proper thread?

Long Live The King!

Long Live The King!

A battle of intelligence between the king and the nation's smartest.

The Premise

The Kingdom Of Alush. Not long ago, it was a tiny nation and none of the surrounding kingdoms believed it would be a threat. Though it claimed neutrality, it was often raided by both bandits and soldiers its neighbours alike as it possessed a central location on the continent of Vars.

In the year 430, the king passed away and many believed this would call for the end of the Alush. However, as the crown prince took the helm of the nation, everything changed. In a short span of 5 years, Alush conquered all of its enemies. The new king was charismatic and brilliant but most of all, he used a plethora of unorthodox strategies to crush his foes; ending a war that lasted decades in but 5 years.

Now is the year 438, the Kingdom of Alush is flourishing and the peace it enjoyed seemed like it would last forever. This was definitely a cause for celebration but the king was bored. With the passing of war he lost the chance to take on challenging opponents and was reduced to humouring nobles.

However, the king came with an idea. He assembled his advisers and told them to issue a royal decree. Anyone and everyone was allowed to accept the challenges the King came up with. If they won, endless riches and power awaited them. If they lost? Only death.

You are one of these challengers. You could be an original scholar from Alush or you could be a prisoner of war from a conquered kingdom. Regardless, you are an individual of massive intellect or at least, you deem yourself as one. You believe you stand a chance against the man who turned the weakest kingdom into the strongest. Your reason for taking this up could be for riches, power or even simply for the challenge itself.

Can you triumph?

@Animus I am very sorry about not posting yet, I will be posting very soon. I have been very busy lately with school. I will post after I skim through the posts.

@Thanatos

Alright, I'll wait for you. I get irl can be time consuming or stuff but at least drop by the OOC. Its gonna take you like what, under 5 minutes tops. I'm thankful you decided to say this though instead of disappearing into the void like most people do.

<Snipped quote by Animus>

I've messaged Thanatos earlier today, but he hasn't been on
I might invoke some GM powers to have his character move on so you may post, if you don't mind waiting one more day that is
If you wish, you may restart your initial post for your character
Well, if @Caits allows it, which I think she will

@Little_ninja

I've been waiting patiently for 3 days ;_;. Well I could have always made Natto walk off after helping him but I wanted to wait for him, ya know? But since it seems he's lost interest/vanished, that won't be necessary anymore. Thanks for the help though.

@LupusIntus That sounds sweeeeet.

SAO: Living in Aincrad

I feel like Thanatos gave up and my motivation is waning.

I'll try to get out a post tomorrow, anyone still free for partying up?

Diplomacy Check

So you're roleplaying as the obstacle whereas us as the challenger?

Without Face

The setting sounds interesting fo'sure but we need a proper plot.
