![]() A mask is a symbol of freedom from reality. It allows you to be who you want to be, laugh, flirt, to act who you really are down in the depths of high society. Glitter, and glamor, all flaunted on paper masks, the beauty of the fantasy world is brought out and mystery lies sickly underneath those perfect white faces. An edge of perfection is brought out, towards it's drunken guest that fill the night with bright lights, and music. May we all live as our last day....Tonight.

Official Characters: Username: LFei Character's Name: Gable Devoini Age: 20 Gender: Female (Hidden up as Male) Nationality: Duchess of Norway Appearance: Short golden angel hair, with heavy blue aqua eyes. It's a usual French-man look. With skin, pale and whiter then paper, it is well powdered, and delicate. Gable is dressed in a black tuxedo that has a brightly golden buttons that run down the side, with an original heavy scarf wrapped around her neck. His robe is large, and well fitted that end at his lower calves. Wearing a larger amount of layers, and silk, it is unknown to all of her true gender. Tights, and a layer of grey pants are worn for her lower half, and to finish off with a pair of finely made leather shoes. She wears the eye patch some of the time, for aiming and shooting. Also, she also wears black gloves, and does carry around a silver sword for protection. She is fine, classy, and well dressed more then any gent. Height: 5'7 Spoiler: click to toggle Personality: Very subtle, and silent. Likes to crack some jokes with the men, and talk about politics and war. A very dignified fellow, with a lot of secrets. There is a sort of sickly side of her, liking to play with peoples emotions, and hold secrets of others. Otherwise, she is cold, and can find her taking target on the Queens and Kings for an opportunity for a chat of political opportunity. Also, there are times where she is able to brag about riches and fortunes, other times, she likes to invite everyone into a game, and watch from the side. But most of all, her favorite activity is gambling, and showing her fortune. There is rarely a nice side to her...at all. History: Being born an Heir to the thrown of France, there was no chance of her taking the thrown for the fact she was a girl. When she was growing up, she was raised like a princess, meaning to be a princess. But because of war, and the decay of human society, her mother died of disease without having a male heir. Which having a chance to change her status of gender, she took it with no second thought. Lucky, nobody had known of her existence, rather her life was kept rather quiet, living a luxury in the lap of the palace . Nobody of royal politics had ever heard of her, but the French King's "Daughters", which he had many of them. Taking a risky chance, she cut her hair, and dressed as a man to carry on the thrown of the French. Later on fake documents where made to fool the old king, which was in the age of Alzheimer's. Later, he later signed the document, that he had a male heir to take his place after death. This allowed the council accepting his admission towards the Heir, and had fully also been voted to be next in line. Under years of hidden identity, and under the fake identity she was never found out. The only thing questionable, what the size and stature of the short man. For her family, for France, she is willing to do anything. Also, because France is in a war with England, she is trying to build relations with Spain. The Devoini family has good connection with Austria, and Norway. Otherwise, it has decent relationships with every other countries but Spain. Duchess of Norway Prince of Germany Edited by LFei, July 28, 2010, 6:51 am.

Username: Forever_Torn Character's Name: Lucillia ( Loo-see-leeuh) Rose Age: 19 Gender: Female Nationality: ( She is check but she is the duchess of Norway ) Appearance: ![]() Even if she hates dresses, it was only natural she had to wear them as the Duchess of her family. Her tattoos are from a sacred ritual she had when she was younger..--more info in bio-- Her favorite color is red, signifying her outfit, her mask covers her entire face, a deep blood color, with golden and white feathers on each top side and blue diamonds enterlacing the outline. She didn't want anything else on it. She is 5'7 Personality: She holds many secrets, but never shares them unless it is truly important and might hurt the person. She is never revealing, and usually is a whole different person when she is at parties and such. She hates being around many people, and often only likes one or two. She is kind, and has a great sense of humor, but it only comes out to the few people she trusts. She is also very dramatic about things she says and does, bu its just how she is. If you asked her,"what's your ideal type of friend?" She would answer," Anything but humans." History: Lucy wasn't born into the family, but nobody knew that. She can't really remember when she was a little child, she just remembered she used to be in a church, and to become a Sister they had to do a sacred ritual to let her in. But something went wrong and a bit of dark energy went into her, only creating her scars of tattoos, that she would tell no one about. Because of the bit of dark energy, the Sisters had to kick her out of her only home, and Lucy had to find a home. Wandering for a while she ended up at the Norway castle, and in needing of a Duchess, they let her in in secret, and never told anyone else that she was not related. She didn't look relaed though, for she was very fair, and had blonde hair, while her "parents" were also fair skinned, but had deep black hair and stricking green eyes. No one ever questioned them however. Lucy right away grew a liking to her brother, who immidiatley took a liking to her. They would play with each other so much, you would never see them apart. But as Lucy and her brother grew older, they had seprerate studies, and they couldn't be together. But they always found time. They would meet in a forest a couple miles from the castle, and teach each other what they learned that day. Of course, Lucy had to leave out some lady things, and her brother manly things, but her favorite was swordsmanship. Her brother would bring two swords and they would spar each other, but the brother always won because 1. she had a dress and 2. she learned from him and he learned from an instructor, when he was awake. It only lasted about three years when they were caught by one of the servants, and they were forbidden to see each other. None of this leaked out however, so no one got into major trouble.Her mother thinking it was her Brother that was the bad influence, only let Lucy go to the ball. But Lucy wished it was the other way around. She brought the sword her Brother had gave her, and latched it to her leg, just in case. She knew she probably wouldn't have to use it, sense her family was quite friendly with the French, and Spain, but she had to be careful, because she didn't know about the rest.

I'm interested in this but I haven't figured out what character I want to be yet. I'm leaning toward Prince of Germany but I don't know. |

I am sorry, but there needs to be some minor changes in your character. One is, you need a last name. What royal family doesn't have a last name? No Tattoos. Even this is fantasy, but it's more on a realistic side, or my character would get tattoos earlier. Well...I can accept tattoos for a really, really good reason. If you don't have one, I am sorry. This is more of a hint, but are 19 year olds 5'9? You can be 5'9, but just hinting you that you should be careful about towering over a lot of people. May you want a second thought? In this world of royalty, if a duchess where to be seen in mens clothing, she would of been burned off as a witch. For example, my character is hiding as a man, not being half man or half woman. Everyone thinks my character as a man, and thought the old princess had died off. If she where to return in the attire of a woman, she would be instantly killed. So, respectfully, I want you to change your history. Some suggestions are, when playing with her brother, she wore some boyish clothing to have freedom of a huge dress, or she wore mens clothing during some sports, which is allowed. Also, a duchess can not sword play in the middle of day light, it's strictly not allowed in royal society.Rather you can say, when no one was around, or when she was in a forest or some sort of area hidden from view, she and her brother practiced swordsmanship. Also, in your history, you didn't write a good history of your family. Royal people do not pop out of nowhere. You can easily say she was born a royal family, it's all you need to do. Also, a royal family has history of connection. I'll stop here till you make all improvements. Please, this is for character improvement, and self improvement. Do not take what I say as an insult. --Fei |

Username: ravenroses Character's Name: Claus Famula Age: 20 Gender: Male Nationality: German Appearance: Claus In general, Claus has soft features. He has light hair and dark eyes. Like the other men in his family, he is tall. He stands at 6'1". He is very pale also. For the party and for real life, Claus wears the same sort of outfits. His favorites have always been the ones where he feels the most proper or the fanciest. He enjoys looking like a gentleman. After all, he must try to impress as many people as he can. As for his mask, he chose something lovely yet simple. It's black fabric with an edging of gold. There is a topaz jewel on the corner of each eye. It covers half of his face from forehead to the tip of his nose. Personality: Claus is a gentleman through and through. He knows what is to be expected of him and he performs as best as he can in front of important people. On his own, he is a quiet boy. He knows how to keep his emotions in check. Usually, when he has free time, people can find him in the yard or the woods by his home with a book in his hand. History: The Famula family has a deep rooted history in Germany. Many generations before Claus was even a thought, his great great grandfather was a wealthy man with many ties to those higher up. Scandal broke out amongst those people and his great great grandfather was able to step in and settle a few matters. The people fell in love with his great great grandfather and soon, to his surprise, he was in charge of the country. Since then, the oldest or surviving males have taken the throne to rule Germany. The people can see no fault in the royal family. They follow them without question. For a while, the family worried the German people were becoming blind and that nothing they could do was wrong. Claus's father decided to do something with the people. He severed some of their ties to them to see how they would fair. The country prospered some but nothing serious. The people didn't lose faith but they did realize that they might not need the royal family after all. Now, it is Claus's turn to take over. He is waiting in line for his father to pass on. ((Sorry the history is so long, I got so into it haha)) |

Claus, you are accepted. I'm guessing your the Prince of Germany? Also, Lucilla, you are accepted....just expect a few stares at that tattoo. Also, "dark energy"....in this world, we don't have superpowers. Still, I'll take it that your evil or demented. ![]() Anyways, wait for a few others to Join, and I'll start the Roleplaying. |

er...a bit of constructive criticism fei....tattoos are a freedom of choice and sometimes denote a rank or special honor depending upon what culture they're from. and shouldn't this be in realistic? |

No, it's fantasy. It's not realistic. If anything it would be only semi realistic if at that. Also most of any royalty never had tattoos because it would mark the skin and was considered ugly and only used by common people. |

I didn't place the topic in realistic, because I would have to follow the lines of history, and what not. Yeah, tattoos are a freedom of choice, but we are playing a high-society. Even if I where to say we where playing a fantasy role play of Ancient Chinese society, with warriors, and what not, imagine a tattoo on the King of China. That would just be awkward even for fantasy. Freedom is creativity, imagination, or a feeling beyond the normal world. Rules shape the foundation of freedom to bring grace, elegance, culture to a life, and builds and creates new ideals. What makes this RP special, and has its taste is the elegance of royal society, and with that it has a lot of rules. It's why people want to RP as them, otherwise this would be nothing more then hooligans in stripper clothing, fighting for a emo reason, which gives the RP no taste, and no originality. This is semi-realistic, semi-fantasy for the reason I don't want to get into the historic politics I have to get into, naming the Kings of whatever country, and NPC Marie Antoinette. Lastly, it is not I'm taking away anyone's freedom, it's just the style of this RP. If anything, it's a wish for everyone to be as creative as possible. Thank you for your comment, and P.S, I already accepted her, if your asking. Have a nice day.
