Bio
Hello all who have deigned to grace my profile with their presence! I am the great Arrayah, lord of the Phoenix. Or something. I don't know.
Anyways, bio. As of writing this, I am a 23 year old female. I am married. I own two dogs (a Dalmatian and a Labrador... so cliche). I work from home. I like crafty stuff and games. I used to be an MMORPG girl, but have since moved on to things like Minecraft and Ark as well as Rimworld and Dwarf Fortress. Who knows what's next?
I love writing, but only get to roleplaying a few times every couple years. Unfortunately, life gets in the way. I'm starting to have more time lately, and thought it'd be fine to start it up again. We'll see how it goes, but hopefully I stick around this time.
I was on the old RPGuild, so you may recognize my name. If so, hello again! If not, maybe we'll have lots of fun together. If I've been online recently, and you're interested in doing an RP, feel free to PM me. I'm almost always interested in 1x1s as long as I don't have too many going on. Check some of my old threads to see my rules, or pm me if that's too much hassle.
Long live the Phoenix Queen. Or something or other.

Alrighty, any laggers will have until tomorrow (probably night) before I post again D:<
Ah! I feel bad for taking so long, but there it is!
And no its not terrible/stressful. I actually turned 21 earlier this year, so I'm able to go out now. And I met a guy. And things :o
Anyways, life is awesome right now so it can distract me all it wants. I'll be around during the week from now on though, just maybe not weekends.

For several minutes, Kiara was quiet as she stared at the blooming petals in front of her. It was strange that someone could be in such a similar situation to her own, and yet be so different from her. It was obvious that Lamont longed to be someone different than what their life was forcing them to be. He would have fit in well in Astora where as she would have been more at home here. At least in their interests. Even his own parents had accepted her more readily when they had learned of her weapons experience. Here what she loved was valued. This helped to ease the terrible feeling in her gut caused by the hatred of the people in Berinike.
Even so, Kiara doubted she would be happy here if she was still royalty, for that was what really caged her. It was not the disappointment her mother held towards her because she was not more feminine, or the frustration she received when her tutors learned she was not very talented at sewing or anything of the like. It was that she could not even leave her home without tricking the people she was closest to. It was that she was forced to shove her entire being deep down where even she could barely see it.
It was something she thought Lamont may be able to understand.
Instead of voicing these thoughts, though, she just nodded and spoke quietly, her mind still elsewhere. "Yes, that sounds fine to me. I'm sure they'll be happy to hear that we are doing something together, regardless of what it is. I'll have to take some time. Hiding my race is much harder than disguising my status, but I'm sure I can do it."

I am still here! I was waiting for others and then life kind of kidnapped me, but this will not die yet!
Woah! Real life. Okay so I'm definitely going to post tomorrow for sure, just not sure when.
Thanks much. I'll probably post something tomorrow.
I took longer because boys are distracting and make you procrastinate longer.

So I'm probably going to be MIA the next few days. I procrastinated too hard. Oops.
Anyways I liked the way you did the tour scene. I find its more realistic to skip it just because it makes more time pass before they really get closr and two that's just a lot of probably pointless conversation they may have had.

Elder your post is fine! Especially when you explain it that way :)
Sleep wellllll :)
Kiara was slightly surprised when she an actual smile on his face. She had noticed that the few he'd given her had not reached his eyes, but this one had lit them up in a way that she had not seen before. So he liked the idea of dressing up and pretending to be someone else did he? She was surprised that he had never done it before, though he did have many older brothers.
In Astora, Kiara was the only child of the king and queen and so she was very well known. It also meant she was very well protected. Leaving the castle was not allowed for her except on special occasions. She wore a disguise to hide herself from both her people and her guards. If her mother had ever found out she'd left the castle, well, her guards would have a good tongue lashing just to start.
"Yes. Yes that sounds like a deal," she smiled at him and started to laugh. "Wait until you see the difference. The way people treat you when they think that you are one of them.. it's amazing. It will be harder for me here. My skin is tanner than most Astorans, but I will need to hide my hair and possibly my eyes. You'll have an easier time, especially if they don't know exactly what you look like.
"So what is it you'd like to do on your day as a commoner? Bars are fun when no one is bowing to you and treating you as if you might break. I also find that talking to people about the problems they have with the country is much easier when they don't realize they are talking to their leaders. They most likely find it intimidating to tell you what it is they think you are doing wrong. To me, it's important to listen to them and try to fix the issues as best I can. That's how I was taught anyways."
