the war for the new princess
an rp set in some sort of competition that takes place in a different universe where the bird queen is infertile/dead and had only given birth to a son and since it's matriarchal and because of stuff that doesnt allow non-arranged marriage, obviously a new queen needs to be chosen. so basically this is just a set of difficult, odd and unusual (extra emphasis on odd and unusual) challenges to see which one of these 8-15 eligible women are fit to be the bride, and therefor the new ruler of the queendom.
the rpers play as the women trying to survive in this death game. deaths will happen and murder is possible, but drama and character interaction is the main thing im hoping for.
eh? ehhh?? ehhhhhh???
im hoping to get some differing opinions and perhaps some constructive criticism, but im posting it so you can just laugh at it since it sucks anyways. |

If you want a deadly RP focused on character development, I'd advise my series Arloth.
I'm past the point where shameless advertising won't help, but really, I plan on building up lots of these characters even if just to kill them all off later to make their deaths actually mean something to the RPer.
Also, I still don't really see how the bird queen could die.
Every scenario I can think of would fail horribly for the assassin.

i.. i know... the thought is incredibly silly and stupid
but we all must know to separate unreality from reality. everyone knows the bird queen would never die, however this impossibility is only for drama's sake, you must understand. |

| The only one closer to her, the boy, killed her, tried to establish a disgusting male regime, and then got beheaded by a plasma alien sword. |

Name one scenario that would actually work so that there's no plotholes.

It may just be me, but I think a roleplay where women fight to become the bride, thus the queen is intriguing enough. But, like, not really fight... Like fight for love... |

they cant be queens, tai, unless one were to sneak in to the competition, disguising themself as a woman
but besides that, they can be spectators
"Name one scenario that would actually work so that there's no plotholes."
actually, i might make this kingdom along with it's competitors as nonbirds, though the animal that is the status of royalty will be a bird. that way, instead it is just a lowly humanoid queen dressed with bird feathers that will be killed, instead of the powerful, immortal and genuine bird queen. |

and power
the queen is the one with the most political strength, influence in the military and wealth in this bird queendom.
the prince is probably just the icing on the prize cake |

if it's developed for a long time, did we write with blood in the beginning?
did we kill birds to skin them to write rps on

honestly it really doesnt feel good to be put up as an example of terribleness and "devolution" of rp because of an idea i've written when im barely alive
i cant really lie much at this point |
