Fantasy AU Meme

1. Comment with your character. You can leave your comment blank or type up a prompt if you know what you want already.
2. Someone else will tag your character and roll a number between 1 and 8. This will be their role. If you haven't decided on a role yet, you can roll after they post.
3. Get creative and have fun.
1. Royalty
You are the prince or princess of a faraway kingdom. Are you a kind and generous ruler or are a royal pain? Maybe it's that time for you to think about the future and start looking for a husband or bride. Have you ever been outside the castle walls? Do you have any interest in stepping outside your cozy world at all?
2. Runaway Prince/Princess
Whatever the reason, you couldn't take living in the castle anymore! You packed up a few belongings (or maybe a few too many) and now, you are on the run! How long you've been on the run is up to you. Be careful that no one finds out who you are or they might send you back to the castle and you wouldn't want that!
3. Knight in Shining Armor
Are you in the kingdom to fight in a tournament? Maybe you are being sent away to slay the evil dragon? Whatever your purpose is, you are a noble and loyal knight sworn to serve. . . whether you like it or not.
4. Magician
You are the greatest magician in all the land! . . . Or are you? You can be a few things with this: The court magician, an evil wizard, or maybe magic is forbidden in your kingdom and you're keeping your powers a secret. And what is your power? Can you cure an illness, make love potions, blow things up, or are you dabbling in the dark arts and a master of curses?
5. Enchanted creature
Your character can be any fantastic creature-- dragon, unicorn, mermaid, Tinker Bell, or perhaps you were once a human but some horrible spell has turned you into what you are now. Beware! There are some who might want to harm you for one reason or another. . . or maybe the humans are the one who should be aware of you.
6. Questionable occupation
Gotta eat to live and you gotta steal to eat. Whatever your place in society is right now, it's not a good one. You don't have a problem breaking the law to accomplish whatever it is you want (or need) to do. You might be the pirate king that terrorizes the coastal kingdoms or a common thief stealing just to get a meal. Once the officials get their hands on you, it's to the dungeons with you!
7. Commoner
Who are you? No one special. .. or are you? Maybe you're the servant and close friend of someone at the castle. But then again, you might be someone on the outside that daydreams of what it's like in the castle. You are just a commoner and that will never change. . . or maybe destiny has something bigger in store for you.

8. Roll Again/Your Choice

Hmm, you wouldn't say that if you met some more of them. [ Oh wait. That might sound a bit odd coming from a simple peasant girl. So she clams up.

Socially awkward princess is awkward and whether he means that next bit to sound like flirting or not, she goes a tiny bit pink at that, albeit with a stubborn mulish look on her face. ]


I've never thought about it.

Oh, there are bound to be a few bad grapes on the vine, I'm sure.

( A dreamy sigh, )

Hmm, I think it would be very romantic. But there aren't many princesses and even fewer willing to marry less than a Duke.

[ She can't help but huff at that, unable to stop herself saying what she does next. ]

Because they do what is expected of them, sim? Perhaps if they had more of a choice in the matter and their silly father let them marry whoever they wish to instead of forcing them to meet all of these awful prince suitors--

I mean, I suppose that is what it's like for them. I wouldn't know at all of course.

Being a simple peasant girl like I am.

( Spain and Caballo exchange skeptical looks at the outburst. )

Well, Miss Maria! ( What is with that sing-song voice. ) I'm sure some day you'll find someone to love! And they will love you and treat you like a queen and your father will see that.

Right, Caballo? ( A huff, ) See? Caballo agrees.

[personal profile] sheshipsit 2012-07-18 12:33 pm (UTC)(link)
My father is a very stubborn man. [ Now you see where she gets it from... But shhhhhh. ] But it doesn't matter. If I meet the right person I will love them no matter what he thinks. [ STUBBORN LOOK, she even clenches her fists a little.

...But awww horsey ;u; ]


Your horse is very sweet. [ Pets his neck again. ]

What about me? ( He said it first. Caballo was agreeing with him!! Whatever. ) I'm sure your father means very well.

...Ah, um, you are too. [ Complimenting men is hard ;; ]

Hm, I suppose so. But when he doesn't let me leave the palace-- Um, because we work in the kitchens there you know. We don't get on so well.

[ Pause. ] What were you doing so far away from your king anyway? Shouldn't you be out finding runaway princesses for him or something. [ Hurhur. ]

You're running away from a palace job?

( The news makes him stop in his tracks for a moment. )

Those are good positions though, especially for commoners like--( Whoops, TMI, moving on. Anyways, jogging a bit to catch up. ) Oh, no. I went to a tournament in one of the northern kingdoms. Do you know where King Roderich's kingdom is? Aaaaall the way over there! They didn't really have any princesses that needed rescuing.

. . . But his Queen was very nice.

I'm sure I'll find other work. [ Except her hands definitely aren't those of a servant when you look at them and she probably won't be any good at it. ]

Ah, sim, I know Roderich-- I mean, I've seen His Highness before. When I've been on trips with the royal family. Sometimes I've worked as a maid for Princess Ana. [ Aka herself. ]

( These are all clues he wouldn't be able to catch on to, sob. Ana, you chose the best knight to travel with if you have a secret. )

Mhmm. The royal couple are both very kind. I'll have to train extra hard so I can go back next year.

Huh? You know Princess Ana? ( Omigosh that's so exciting. ) Ah, what is she like? I heard she's the most beautiful princess in the land. Jaja, if I had to rescue a princess I would save her! Ah, but I suppose with her father and all she wouldn't need me for anything.

R-Really? People say that? [ For some reason "Maria" looks both flattered and embarrassed by that. But gosh this knight really does seem completely oblivious. ]

A-Ah, I'm sure if she heard you talking like that she'd appreciate it. Perhaps she and her father don't get on that well either.

( Maria you are traveling with the most oblivious knight in all of the kingdoms. )

Well, that's what they say! I wouldn't know. I haven't really seen her before. . . I'm sure she's much more beautiful than Francis used to be though.

( He sighs and shrugs his shoulders. He looks almost disappointed as he recalls something from long ago. )

Ay, he used to be so cute when we were little but now he's just annoying. ( . . .Oh, wait. That isn't a very nice thing to say about a prince. ) But don't let him find out I said that.
sheshipsit: ([⚓] down too long in the midnight sea)

[personal profile] sheshipsit 2012-08-07 06:13 pm (UTC)(link)
...Hm, perhaps you'll meet her someday. [ Or maybe he already has.

And, oh, Francis... ]


Sim, I know Francis... I mean, His Highness. I mean I've been waiting on him and the princess when he has visited. He's... Different.
