@Bayne: The thing about the arranged marriage roleplay I had was that nothing was actually arranged as of the beginning of the roleplay. In a nutshell, basically the heirs/current royalty of three countries get together, ostensibly to discuss ways to strength the somewhat shaky peace between their kingdoms. The problem with three countries is the very fact that a marriage really only involves two x33 So who gets left out? What can you offer that will make sure it's not you?
Anyways. How would you structure a three-way arctic one? There are really only two sides; how would the third person fit in there? D:
Also, although I'm not all that interested in the necromancer one, it might be fun to combine that with vampires 83 I mean, vampires are undead. So how much control does a necromancer have over a vampire, and how is the vampire --arrogant, power-hungry immortals that they tend to be-- deal with that?

Vampires always have to weasel there way into an RP, don't they -.-
If we go with a sort of control RP like that, I'd suggest we intensify the gap to something like a Warlock summoning a Pit Lord. The Pit Lord is exponentially more powerful than the warlock, capable of killing him a thousand times over, but trapped in the spell of binding that he was summoned in. It would be a very interesting character relationship. Probably greater than that of a necromancer/ vampire.

that's a really good idea. (Sorry I'm taking forever Bayne for the A broken house. I'm researching too)...
I kinda do a random (maybe short) RP about the stuff on a target bag. It's been distracting me since yesterday.
10 Ways to reuse your target bag:
1. Tiny trash can liner
2. Doggy duty
3. Water balloon
4. Road trip Rubbish
5. Soggy laundry
6. Ice pack
7. Toiletry Tote
8. Kitty litter liner
9. Tomorrow's lunch bag
10.Care package padding

@Bayne, re: Slave/Spy roleplay.
How about this. How about we use the Egypt-India empire with all its various backstory. I think I've changed my mind --I think I might try to use a guy as the main character, so the master will be the younger brother to the King/Pharoah/head honcho. Not that that's too important. Anyways.
My initial thought was that the spy would mostly be used as a means of communication --the prince wants to know what's going on in the Court, as his current disloyal servants don't tell him anything useful, nor allow him to do anything useful. He would also perhaps sneak messages to people the prince is not allowed to see. I don't know if this is what you had in mind as a 'spy', though. What did you envision? You seemed more oriented towards a woodlands person.
re: Arctic Adventure.
The things I mostly need help with this one is setting up the cultures and history between the two countries. The country I had in mind for my character would be called Antierra. I'm lazy, so I'm c&ping a description from elsewhere for you to read x3
Quote: Antierrans are a very reserved lot, believing that public shows of high emotion indicate a worrying instability in a person, an indication that the person may allow their heart instead of their head to guide them in important decisions. They are a very modest people, covering themselves from neck to fingertip to toes, and finding it scandalous to touch another person in public; they practice a form of arranged marriage where children are betrothed to each other very young. Despite this, there is great equality between the genders --men are held to the same standards of modesty as women, and it is no great surprise to find women in such institutions/industries as the military or construction except for their tendency to be physically weaker than men. This is not, however, something to be ashamed of, but merely a fact of life. Antierrans are not overly-religious, but most practice a form of ancestor-worship.
Usually the problem they have with other countries is a severe distrust of magic, but since you don't seem to be into flashy sparkles, I shall perhaps have to find something else for them to hate the other country for 83
@Roses: Roses, I'll have an arranged marriage rp up for you --and probably the rest of the guild-- later tonight ^^;;

re: Slave/Spy RP Sounds good! Whatever the turnout is, I'm sure it will be very interesting biggrin Just let me know where you want to go from here.
You know, I'd be more than happy to mix it up and make a little flashy magic character for the arctic RP xD Do you want me to work on the background for the other kingdom, or are you going to cover that too?

Re: Slave/Spy || Ummmmm...trying think about how the intro should go x33; I think the slave would be a gift; that would make him specifically the prince's, without having to go through his brother. I guess we'd start...maybe at the end of some birthday celebration? It would explain the gift, anyways. Does that make sense? I'll get an intro up later today, I think...
Re: Arctic || The countries listed here are the only ones I have thought-out so far : P You are more than welcome to use them, or modify them, or whatever, but mostly I'm leaving the 2nd country up to you, since you'll be playing the person from it. If you're stuck, or need somewhere to begin or anything, just say x3;
Generally, the history I like best is to have a noble (minor, major, whatever) from the other country use magic to marry the Antierran monarch (or heir, just someone important). Somehow, this is found out, and Antierra freaks, kills the noble and starts more or less driving all magic-users out of their country. Antierra itself has no magic (and no defense against it), so that's why they're so paranoid.
And the other country dislikes Antierra because, while it may have been on of their own who committed the crime, Antierra did rather overreact ^^;; Killed the offending noble with hardly a by-your-leave, and all but started witch-hunts. The country was kinda ugly for a while there.
Does that work for you?

Okay, then I will look over the countries and get back to you shortly on them. A quick question for you first though -- What's the artifact that you're planning on introducing to the RP, or the general gist of that plot point?
That way I can better plot out my character

I don't know ^^;;; That's part of my problem. I have it in the back of my mind for it to be a wish, because wishes are horribly dangerous things, but...I don't know. I figure whatever information the two countries have would be pretty vague, though.
Do you have any ideas?
Um...a meteor falls to earth and deposits a metal that screws up magic? -flails- What do you think would be interesting?
83 Or it turns out there's nothing there. Wouldn't that be anticlimactic.

Have a prophet experience a vision of a golden form that stretches through the heart of the Mother Mountain in a lost network of mines, extending a diadem that rains fire, storms and flood on the wearer's enemies, and chokes the life of their crop.
Don't know. Sounds like the Dark Ages equivalent of a nuke, so it would make sense both nations would be actively pursuing it for the war. Could be fun ^_^ That's funny that you bring up the meteor though, that's sort of what's going down in my other Arctic RP.
Let me know when you finish a profile skeleton and profile for the slave RP so I can get an idea of what you want to see and how to best fit your character.
