Arthurian RP!!!
Arthurian RP!!!
Ok so I had this awesome idea for an Arthurian RP. It's sort of based off of the Squires Tale series by Gerald Morris. I'm not going to use to much from the series, probably just the Seelie court/magic /enchantment element however but if you have read those books feel free to use elements from the books( but please create new original characters). Anyway the basic plot is the quest for the Grail with a new plot twist: original adventures are encouraged and every character must be under 18 and they can't be a knight of the round table. They can serve or travel with a knight of the round table. Also, at various quest stages Merlin(who is the narrator and unofficially one of my characters) adds a additional riddle or enchantment to the quest. You can be a squire or page, an adventurous maiden, or a peasant/servant who joins a knight on the quest, or a villain(recreant squire, evil enchantress) if you prefer. Please no OP, and 15 people max! I will have three late spots for new Chatterboxers who just joined Chatterbox. Each person may only have on character please! Here is the character sheet:
Name:
Age:
Gender:
Rank:
Appearance

Here's my character:
Name: Vivian Fairxine
Age: 16
Gender: Female
Appereance: Vivian has straight black hair and dark eyes. She normally wears moony silver dresses and brown boots.
Rank: Adventurous Maiden
Personality: Vivian is cunning, shy, and stubborn. She is an apprentice scholar at court and helps to record meetings of the round table. When the announcement of the Grail quest goes out, she's one of the first to know about it and wishes to go on the quest.
Backstory: Will post later!
Travelling with: Sir Kay
Relationship with Seelie realm: Vivian is a quarter faerie and as such can perform healing, beauty, and knowledge spells. But she still needs to learn officially with Morgan le Fay before she knows how to unlock her powers.
Other: Vivian hates Sir Lancealot because he wounded her family deeply. More in her backstory!
Have Fun!

Question! Can the peasant people be over 18? Like in their mid twenty's or early twenty's?
Name: Duberin
Age: 22 if not then 18
Gender: M
Rank: Peasant
Appearance: Dark copper colored hair, one grey eye, the other a dark blue, white shirt underneath a brown vest, broad shoulders.
Personality: Strong, determined, loyal, but not too trusting, reserved but caries on a good conversation. Swift and skilled with a knife, great hand eye coordination. Cant hear out of his right ear. Quite a skilled rider.
Backstory: Doesn't know who his parents are. He had been adopted by a rich family, but after a while, he became just another one of their servants. He went on an errand for them one day then escaped. He then lived in the forest for a year or so, then moved into a small cottage near the edge of a small poor town. He met Sir Lancelot when he was crossing one of the roads, and became talking, then he realized it was Sir Lancealot. He then became a traveling companion to Lancelot, until he reached Camelot, which is about a little less than a months journey. He is now traveling with him
Any knights that they are traveling with: Sir Lancelot
Any relationship with Seelie realm: Nope
Other: He has a black and brown horse

@Esquire of Rohan: Sure, your peasant can be 22. I just would prefer that the majority of the characters be under 18. That rule ensures that they are new characters and not just original characters like Sir Lancealot, Sir Gawain ect. It also ensures that the characters are youth not adults.
I found this on the back pages! Toooooooooop!!

Oh my goodness this RP looks amazing!!!
name: Elisabeth (Elis for short) d'Alerin
age: 16
gender: female
rank: adventurous maiden
appearance: Blond hair that she keeps in a low bun and dark brown eyes, wears a forest green tunic, gray leggings and gray hooded cloak with gray leather boots
personality: Stubborn, tenacious, clever, independent, not the most talkative of people but not at all shy, very good at archery and horseback riding
backstory: Her father was a rich noble but Elis hated the fine clothes and needlework, and when her father was taken captive by another noble and her mother died of shock, Elis ran away and has roamed the kingdom for about six years surviving in the forest.

Cool! I made something like this a while back. I don't really know what Seelie is, since I haven't read the Squire's Tale. It's on my To-Read list, though!
Name: Ariya Wellover
Age: 17
Gender: Female
Appearance: She has curly bright red hair, which she usually keeps pinned back, cobalt blue eyes, freckles, and skin with a light tan.
Rank: Adventurous Maiden
Personality: A temper to match her hair, pretty much your average tomboy. She can beat the village boys at anything she pleases, especially climbing and horseback riding. Super competetive, however, she'll always stop to help someone in need, even if it results in her losing a race. Beneath her temper, she's very smart, curious, and good at lying. Somewhat resentful to the royal family (see backstory)
Backstory: Her father was a tavernkeeper in an outlying village, and her mother was the village healer. One night, when Ariya was twelve, someone set fire to her father's tavern. All the guests escaped, but Ariya's parents perished after getting her to safety. She wandered from place to place, seeking help, but she was turned away repeatedly. She finally made her way to Camelot and begged the royal family for help. They turned her away, deeming her 'unimportant'. Determined to prove them wrong, she got a job working with the castle horses, and is now one of the most valuable stablegirls. Everyone in the royal family conviniently forgets how they turned her away. Ariya tries to, but it goes against her nature, and she is still a bit resentful.
Traveling With: Sir Gawain
Relationship With Seelie Realm: (Just tell me if I get this wrong, but I'm assuming they're fairies.) Her mother was the village healer and favored by the fae, who gave her special herbs and spells. The fae have always liked Ariya, though she doesn't know it, and could be convinced to help her in a time of need.
Other: Erm... open to shipping, I guess, if we're doing that?

Oh man Quill, you need to read it. Its soooo good. Anyone who hasn't read it is definitely missing out on a fun, daring and humorous book.

Reserving a spot formy charrie, Lanceline DuLac!
(October 20, 2017 - 9:39 pm)
Okay. A couple things. 1, I changed my name from Shade! 2, I forgot to add relationship with the Seelie Realm, which my charrie has none. 3, She isn't travelling with any knights, and 4, her horse is a small, agile, smart bay.(a reddish brown horse with black stockings, mane, and tail.)

Hey, I don't know too much about the Round Table (except for Monty Python's interpretation), but can I still join? This RP looks super cool! If not, that's fine.

Ok I have Vivian Fairfaxine's backstory.
Backstory: Vivian is the daughter of Sir Kay, King Arthur's steward and foster brother, and Lady Michelle Fairfaxine. But since she is illegitimate, she was raised far away from the court in her mother's castle by her mother and grandfather in the southern part of Britain. When her mother died of a mysterious illness when she was 11, her grandfather sent her to Arthur's court to get away from the castle and its painful memories. She works as an apprentice recorder of the court because she had a good memory and note taking skills. Once she arrived at court, Sir Kay watched over his daughter from afar, paying extra kindness towards this young recorder. But she had no knowledge of their relationship until Sir Kay almost died on a quest, only surviving with the help of Sir Lancealot, and he( Sir Kay) decided to reveal himself to her. Vivian is shocked but she has grown fond of Sir Kay. She hates Sir Lancealot, however, because they are now in the debt of him. Vivian thinks Lancealot is pompous and rude to her. Also, he helped Sir Kay by switching armor. So now Sir Kay has to go up against opponents better than himself. Vivian is also a quarter fae because her mother was half fae. This connection to the Seelie Court however is unknown to Vivian. Also, Vivian inherited some of her father's sarcastic temper. Sir Kay and Vivian only talk of their relationship in private because they have not announced it to anyone but Arthur.
