Dear Sir,
His Majesty would like you at his Court

Welcome to the royal court! We're sure you'll be fine at the capital, weather it's your first season or tenth. As I'm sure you know, lordship, this is the Court of Istacia, a archipelago nation set in the early 20th century, enjoying splendor and splendid isolation-for the most part. As your joyously aware, you've been invited for the summer to spend time in his royal majesty's palace. Oh, the air is rife with romance and love. There's also economics at play, as maybe you're a more impoverished nobility that the king invited for niceties? Or maybe this is your chance to influence political opinion. One thing is certain; while court culture retains it's tradition, this season's going to be different. A new king who's reportedly liberal, a new set of courtiers- who know's what will happen?

What will you do, you ask? Well, you'll design uniforms and outfits, contribute to culture with poems, plays and literature, gossip, be seen about the town, and maybe get hitched- or atleast knocked up. Or maybe just outragiously drunk.

application, please delete the descriptors

His goddamned highness

Name: Adién of Brumair I
Age: 25
Title/position/standing: King, bitches!
Goal at Court: Adrién will govern his country, secure his position as the head of his state, get knocked up and maybe get a spouse. He'll also try not to die.
Decription/Backstory: Adrién was born to the king's brother, a tradtional, concervative son of a bitch who pissed off the nobility but had the finesse not to be poisoned by an angry aristocrat. After dying in an autocar accident, the throne was passed through Adirén's deceased father, to him.

Adrién is a liberal monarch who has shokingly done away with many traditions of the kingdom. Refusing to put a statue of himself up until later in his reign, he also did away with the court apointments of yesteryear. He refuses to speak with the Royal We, dresses in military uniform instead of regal robes, and turned over his father's contentious ban on homosexuality- heralding in a non-religious reign. He's also hoping his first court goes well. Maybe the courtiers will like him?

So, we can only make people of the court, or can we also make foreigners?

Name: Mark Ficken
Age: 22
Title/position/standing: Duke of Großglied
Goal at Court: To be the ultimate fuckboi and find himself a husband to bring back, preferably someone related to the king and/or nice looking.
Description/Backstory: Having recently inherit the Duchy from his childless uncle, Mark isn't your ordinary heir. Even though he has a reputation of being a playboy back at home, he is also fairly rich, as he's the only child of a very successful businessman and inheriting the Duchy just made him richer. Thankfully he is capable enough to run both his father's business and the Duchy itself. The people do view him as a capable ruler, albeit being a playboy.

He is also a closeted gay person, so the only reason that he's with the girls is because he wants to hide his homosexuality. He hopes by being abroad, he would be able to be open about his sexuality and find his rightful partner. He also wishes to marry someone who could help him gain power, since the Duchy is fairly small. He hopes that by bringing back a husband, the people will accept him as who he is.

Name: Cleric Malk
Age: 30
Title/position/standing: Cleric of Malkbaconne

Goal at Court: Spreading the good delicious word of Malkbaconne by saying Malkbaconne at least once in every sentence.

Description/Backstory: Cleric Malk grew up in a household that was devoted to Malkbaconne, the good tasty lord of Crumstain. He considered himself a straight man who would marry a woman because it is Malkbaconne tradition, however, he has recently found himself to be turned on by the sight of Malkbaconne. He finds something erotic from the crispy edges and the creamy center of goodness in the plate of Malkbaconne. He has been known to mysteriously lean forward whenever Malkbaconne is brought up in conversation, which is unfortunate since his role is to spread the good word of Malkbaconne.

EDIT: To remove some comedy from this character, his goal is to remain the same except the "Saying Malkbaconne at least once in every sentence" detail. Also, a change to his "turn on by the sight of Malkbaconne". He will instead be promiscuous with others which is against the Religions laws.

Have you praised our lord and saviory savior Malkbaconne today?

Name: General Field Marshal Milford Petya

Age: 57

Title/position/standing: High-ranking officer in the military with underlying connections to the domestic arms industry

Goal at Court: Advance the wealth of himself and his arms-industry benefactors, as well as his own career and standing. Wishes to pass his legacy of wealth and power to his son, a captain in the military.

Description/Backstory: Came into the good graces of high military rank through secretive crooked dealings allowing for his advancement in the military. While by no means a bad officer (in fact running his outfit with tight discipline throughout his career), Milford had more interest in personal advancement than the realm. By the good graces of his industrial partners he ended up in the late King's court as an adviser in military affairs, and while particularly favorable to the late King's old policies, the new reign is seen by the Marshal as a new business opportunity.

Name: Sara Peck
Age: 21
Title/position/standing: Maid
Goal at Court: gossip, make a little money, make a little cheeky money on the side, fawn over hot guys, gossip, make a little more money on the side. Repeat.
Description/Backstory: workd as a maid for the court. Pretty and young girl, has had glances from people in the past. Knows most of the rumors. Can also spread all the rumors. To an outsider, however, she acts innocent. (As a sidenote, I will ask the person in question/the OP before spreading anything)

Remember: being the richest, most powerful, most experienced courtier is not being the best. This is roleplay. Also respect the god of Istacia, named "Admin".
