King of the Castle - SIGN UPS

[crazynuto]

Long Long ago, before even the Admins were born...

There lies a Kingdom unlike any other. 

The Kingdom of Ronpa

Click Here to see what territory has been already claimed. (Will update this link periodically)

---

---

After years of turmoil, a shaky truce has been upheld between Ronpa and a few neighboring lands, giving them full autonomy and freedom under the leadership of the Wise and Just King Tyronius. Joined by his heir, Prince Casimir.


What a soft-hearted man. Beloved by all.

A brilliant, level-headed fellow. Exactly who you'd want as a future ruler.

Yet not all is peaceful in the land of Ronpa. The King has sequestered himself lately, and rumors have spread that he's planning something to cement his rule for centuries to come. While that doesn't sound bad on paper, the dark clouds constantly circling over Dangan, the Capital, have made quite a few nobles uneasy.

And that's where you come in!

Welcome to Vulpix and I's minigame based loosely around the hit party game, King of the Castle. If you haven't played the game before, no worries! There will be a second thread alongside this one explaining how the game will work in more detail. For a brief synopsis:

You will all be divided into three groups/regions, depending on population density and similar goals. You will still be a unique player, you'll just have a team to help back up your plans. Each region has 4 pertinent stats, and 18 points that will be allocated by us to these stats.

Trade
Farming
Military
Faith

There's also
Defiance, which starts at 0
Stability, which effects the entire Kingdom and starts at 4.
Authority, which effects the entire Kingdom and starts at 5.
Treasury, aka the Kingdom's money. Starts at 2500 gold. War is tough on the wallet.

The King has a Scheme he's trying to finish, which will involve raising/lowering specific stats from each region. 

(Example: Raising everyone's Farming to 8, or everyone's Trade to 0)

Each region will get their own Scheme, to rival the King's plans. Each group will come up with a secret three step plan together that when completed will win you the game! Can you outmaneuver the King's plans before it's too late?

You each will be part of a Noble House somewhere on the lands of Ronpa. You may choose where you are located anywhere on the map, (barring the Capital, and the light grey areas of the other Kingdoms). In your sign ups I'd like you to mark out a small area where your lands will be located. Like this:

Sign ups will close on Saturday, June 15th, although anyone joining mid-game is perfectly acceptable! You'll just be assigned a region randomly/which area is unbalanced. I wish you all the best of luck!

Age: 33

Background Info:
He was named after his father, who was also named after his father. His Grandfather Impervious Beargrasshatchway I, was named by his mother, the first ruler of the land. Her name was Ai Magimkam, which the land was named after. She named her only son and successor after the land itself. The land acts as a hatchway to the capital, it is also impenetrable as there are many mountains in the region making it a natural fortress. Lastly there are an abundant amount of beargrass growing in the region, which it is well known for, due to it having many uses such as creating baskets, garments and medicine. Thus the name was created when combining the three factors, Impervious Beargrasshatchway.

Noble Title: The Cactus Man

.

Compression. Deal with it. 

Name: The Cactus Man

Age: 12 or 112

Pronouns: He/Him

Territory name: The Cactus Land

Region specialties: Cactus

Any interesting background info: 

Most people don't think this place actually exists, until they go there.

A desert community of scavengers, with a supposed "Cactus Man" as their leader.

Now, considering the childlike voice and nature of this "Cactus Man", we can assume a few theories.

Perhaps it is a child inside a suit of cactus. Perhaps it is being puppeted by a child. Or maybe, it truly is a cactus man with a kid's voice.

Now, contend that with the fact that this nation has had this "Cactus Man" for decades, and you may start to understand why they follow this "Cactus Man"

Best to not ask any questions. Somehow, it just works.

Lady Diana Proudmoore

She/Her
Sugarvine Islands
Focus On Farming
The islands of Sugarvine are a peaceful farming community. Our main exports are malasadas, and mead. On the lush shores, they grow many tropical fruits. In the fields, you'll see endless lines of beautiful golden wheat. With all the greenery, there are many bees from which the most heavenly honey is sourced. In the far off island, the only occupant is a hermit, who the locals know as Miss Brown. Children dare each other to get as close to her hut as they can, but allegedly all she does is scream about some "machine" she's building. While the leaders of the islands are in good health, their daughter Diana takes on most of the responsibility. Through her leadership, the islands have really been thriving. Her main goal is to share malasadas across the world, and with them, peace.

Title: Despot

NAME: Jerrold III

Age: 24

Pronouns: He/Him or They/Them

Territory: Isle of Men
Region Specialty: Education

Background Info: Was made leader of the island due to his almost Godly ability to accurately determine the pH levels of water by simply tasting it. Some even revere him as a holy symbol for it, however he detests them and spends most of his time travelling to test different water samples and conducting research/lessons at the island's main academy.

[Sachi]

Title: Dragon Lord

Name: Azulongmon
Age: 10,000+
Pronouns: He/Him

Territory: Domain of the Holy Beast
Region Speciality: All
History:
In ancient times this land was protected by the combined power of the Four Holy Beasts. But the continued spread of conquest has led to the disappearance, if not outright death, of the other three. Azulongmon is now the sole remnant of that bygone age. 

He has no subjects, no army, and domain only over the nearby oceans. He pays taxes with exorberant amounts of fish in lieu of gold, which he also lacks. If he's good for anything, it's ensuring that the people won't go hungry.

However, he's viewed as something of an obstacle. A remnant of a bygone age. Many believe his title is only officially recognised because barely-practiced traditions, and that he holds no real value in the conflicts or politics of humanity.

[Peregrine]

Noble Title: Chaos Councillor(s)
Names, left to right: Spoone, Ollie, & Leng
Age: 1,000 (in monster years)
Pronouns, left to right: She/Her, He/Him, He/Him
Territory name: Monstrome



Region specialties: Trade (handcrafted clothes and masks), Faith (not yours)

While of course paying fealty to the King for his protection and services, the monster province of Monstrome internally operates under its own scaritocracy. It is inhabited entirely by scary monsters! Goblins, cyclopes, devils, boogeymen, mothmen, goat-pluckers, long horses, fuzzflingers, nurgles, hags, mephits, spirits, boggards, vilebloods, chickenfaces, jabberwocks; even the dreaded Burga Yaga makes her home here. They hold regular Monster Festivals in celebration of chaos and mischief, play pranks on their neighbours, practice strange monstrous rituals, and craft new faces for one another. It's said that any child foolish enough to visit Monstrome alone will quickly become a monster themselves.

The current Chaos Councillors were elected to office on their platform of demanding more candy from Dangan, building more blanket forts, and making bedtime never. Rapture and ruin! Kililili!

Monstrome is inhabited by displaced orphans from the other territories dressed in monster costumes. Their performative culture is, in part, a means to ensure the rest of the kingdom knows who they are, hoping lost children will know to make their way to Monstrome to find new home and family.

Noble Title: High Priestess

Name: Mi Amore Cadenza (High Priestess Cadance)

Age: 29 (in human years)

Pronouns: She/Her

Territory name: City of Crystalis

Region specialties: Faith, Gem trading

Any interesting background info: The citizens of Crystalis are all pegasi, and only the High Priestess can be transformed into an alicorn. (Think of it as the creation of a Queen Bee. The most dedicated and suitable nun is chosen for the role.) They're known for their peaceful demeanor, all thanks to their religion known as Amity. This faith's practice is dedicated to spreading love and community within their own region. Although, this does make them exclusionary to outsiders who aren't believers, and their region is known for being highly focused on the greater good of the group rather than individual. The highest of worshiping nobles live on the mountains, and their palaces are decorated with beautiful gemstones native to the land. Of course, the tallest palace is reserved for the matriarchal monarch of the land: the High Priestess.
