Rhaeclya — House Doreris, House Veltalor, and House Aertheos.
Available Roles.
The Prince of Vashil: 1/1 — The second oldest of his family, he was the spare for his kingdom's throne and was pushed to marry into Rhaeclya's family. He wasn't exactly thrilled about the idea of being married off to a foreign continent, but he didn't object and did what he was told. He was pleasantly surprised by the princess he was to marry and thought that maybe, life wouldn't be that bad for him. Things changed after the wedding though. Now married into Rhaeclya's family, they have prevented him from returning home to Vashil and he is kept under close watch as if expecting him to hurt the family in additional ways. (Royal)
The Forgotten Spare: 0/1 — Back when they were younger, they were the other possible contender for the throne. They had ambitions for it and they thought that they were the perfect one for the job. But then the Heir was named and they were cast to the side. Anger and frustration seemed to bubble up inside of them and caused them to distance themselves from the Heir as they did not find them fit to occupy the throne. Now, years have passed and those residual feelings may still be lingering, especially with all this talk of usurping the throne. (Royal)
The Rumored Bastard: 0/1 — A member of the royal family and a child of the current rulers, but there are whispers within the castle walls that they are a bastard, and that the King couldn't have any more children. These rumors have haunted them for years so they have tried their best to stay out of the limelight. Because of this, they have suppressed themselves and have not shown off their true colors. Their questions about their parentage have once again started to come to the surface and it is rather unsettling for them. (Royal)
The Rebellious Royal: 0/1 — Since their childhood, they have always pushed back against the rules and regulations that come with being a royal. They never agreed with it. It was always stifling and they wanted more out of life. At the first chance they got, they tried to break free, to run across Nordua and discover a world outside of politics and dances. But this rebellious phase has been forced to come to an end as they have been dragged back to the capital in order to have an arranged marriage, once again trapping them in the world they have rejected. (Royal)
The Fox of Rhaeclya: 0/1 — They have always tried to get involved in everyone's business within the royal family, their whispered words and mischievous glances always getting connected to drama and bad luck. They seem to get great joy out of toying with the royals and ultimately are out to save their own skin rather than the crown. A fox in a hen house, they have abused their power many times in order to get the information they want or orchestrate situations that would shine a poor light on their most recent victim. (Royal)
The New Arrival: 0/1 — Shortly before the wedding commenced, they arrived in the capital from outside of Rhaeclya, a stranger to court and ultimately many within the royal family. Whispers about where they came from and who their parents are have started to pop up around the castle and it seems like it has been pushing them to the outside. Now they haven't done anything wrong, but their presence is new and is ultimately distracting as nobody knows what they want after all this time. (Royal)
The Exiled: 1/1 — They were cast out to a remote location within Nordua over eight years ago due to their temperament and desire for the throne. They were pushed away and told to reflect, to enjoy their own castle and solitude where they could do no harm. Now almost a decade later they have returned and it seems they have matured considerably. Offering their support to the crown, they have been a model royal, but nobody knows what is going on behind that mask. (Royal)
The Future Hand: 1/1 — From the beginning, they knew that they would be offering their support to whoever was named heir. They have been meticulously dedicating their time to the heir and to court, hoping that one day, they will be named the new Hand when the time calls for it. They are ambitious, intelligent, and know the court quite well. They know a large amount of secrets of those within the royal family but have done nothing with it for the sake of peace and for their own future security. (Royal)
The Royal Gem: 1/1 — They have always been adored by the commonfolk and their fellow royals. They are sweet, unassuming, and simply easy to get along with. They have worn the mask of gentle perfection since they were ten years old and it is starting to crack. The pressures of marrying for the family, and watching their siblings go to war and not come back, are starting to become too much. (Royal)
The Protector of the Crown: 1/1 — They have been actively involved in Rhaeclya's military for years and have dedicated themselves to protecting the royal family, and their family. They have little interest in taking the throne, but they will do whatever it takes to protect it. They often get involved in conflicts between the royals and will mediate as very few will argue with them. Their support of the Heir has strengthened royal support for the future of the throne. (Royal)
The Heir of Castle Mirkworth: 0/1 — The oldest child of the current Lord of Mirkworth, they are actively preparing for the day that they will be in charge of this castle and will raise their banners in support of the crown. Being the closest castle to Rheaclya's capital, they mostly grew up around the royal family and consider them quite close as both families have married each other over the years. They are dedicated to their House and plan to push it to greatness when they inherit. (Noble of Rhaeclya)
The Heir of the Stormstrong Keep: 0/1 — The next to inherit the Stormstrong Keep, they are quite nervous about what will happen when they take it over. After all, they have been enjoying their independence, going around Nordua, offering counsel to lords and ladies, and entertaining members of the royal family. But now, that may come to an end sooner than later. They have been actively avoiding their future and instead have been talking about dreams of running away and never coming back. (Noble of Rhaeclya)
The Heir of Dragon's Roost: 1/1 — The strongest of the three castles (outside of the capital) and an important asset to Rhaeclya's regulation of trade on the ocean. The heir is no stranger to dealing with those from Nireath and those from the capital. They are a confident individual and have fought for the crown multiple times. They have little opposition to their future title, and are rather ambitious, prepared to push the limits of their land and what they can do in the name of Nordua. (Noble of Rhaeclya)
The Heir of the Eryas Keep: 1/1 — Their family was one of the first to tame the harsh winters of Tun and they have never left it. They are at home in the mountains, preferring to dig within the great formations rather than deal with troublesome court drama. The heir is no different. They are interested in the development of Tun and steering it in a direction that will allow it to become more independent from Rhaeclya. (Noble of Tun)
The Heir of Night's End: 1/1 — A warrior and heir, they are feared and admired, coming from a line of fearsome warriors and leaders. They thirst for battle and to protect Nordua, so they weren't exactly thrilled to know that their responsibilities as heir would start to be applied to their everyday life. They are not rejecting their position, but they are certainly more interested in pursuing and developing their military career over marrying some noble. (Noble of Tun)
The Heir of Castle Winterstone: 0/1 — The heart of Tun, this noble family is known for their stoic expressions and strong morals. They tend to be the most politically involved and their heir is just as interested. They often have traveled to Rhaeclya in order to have a council with the royals and advocate for their mountain home. They are very brave and intelligent, able to fend for themselves even if they are outnumbered. Not one to be underestimated, they are a very valuable prize for a marriage. (Noble of Tun)
The Heir of the Sea's Heart: 1/1 — Considered to be the capital of Nireath, the nobles that live here are well-known for their gorgeous performances and natural charisma. The heir has been on stage since they were a child and they feel as if they belong up there. The sparkling lights, the music, the clothes, it is all so magical that they have a hard time staying away. But all good things must come to an end. Forced off the stage and into politics, they are now faced with the reality that they are going to be getting their inheritance within the coming months, once the current Lord finally passes away. (Noble of Nireath)
The Heir of the Starmark Keep: 1/1 — Newly appointed, they became the heir of this when their older sibling was killed in combat. This devastated the family and it forced this new heir into a position they never expected to find themselves in. Now forced to fill in the shoes of their beloved sibling, they are navigating the court and politics of Norduan nobility. (Noble of Nireath)
The Heir of Castle Stormbringer: 0/1 — The sister castle of the Stormstrong Keep, they have had close ties with Rhaeclya's nobility since the royals built the castle. While they no longer populate it, the current heir of the castle has always been fascinated with the royals. Per their country's well-known personality, they are often seen cozying up to royals, as if trying to get their claws into one and secure their tie to the crown. (Noble of Nireath)
The Heir of the Diamond Crest Tower: 0/1 — Well-known for their sharp and impenetrable armor, the nobles that populate this keep are often involved with the military and conflicts that Nordua finds itself in. The heir is in charge of their own small group of soldiers that patrol Araes, keeping it safe and clean from any blemishes that may tarnish its reputation. The Heir is a bit of a perfectionist and this can cause their personality to be a bit rough around the edges. (Noble of Araes)
The Heir of the Fallen Star: 0/1 — A house that is desperate to keep up a facade, they have been pushing responsibilities onto their heir's shoulders, hoping that they will be the key to fixing everything. Falling from the graces of the royal family isn't easily forgotten, and so for years, there has been constant damage control. Despite the fact that Araes is incredibly wealthy, the opinions of the crown are worth more than any gemstone. Will the heir be able to fix this broken reputation? Only time will tell. (Noble of Araes)
The Heir of the Spinel Keep: 1/1 — When one first thinks of nobles from Araes, those within the Spinel Keep are the first to come to mind. In particular, the heir is often thought of. They are always praised for their sense of fashion and their looks are always complimented, comparing them to the gems and jewels that their country produces. They enjoy this and often feed into it, doing things like upstaging people at events so that they are the jewel of everyone's eyes. But sooner or later, this is bound to catch up to them as no star shines forever. (Noble of Araes)
The Guards of Rhaeclya: 0/4 — The best of the best, they work in the capital of Rhaeclya and defend those within the royal family. They are extremely skilled in combat and have been training for this position for years. They usually alternate between patrolling the city and protecting the royals, depending on what the occasion calls for.
The Guards of Tun: 0/4 — They are warriors of Tun, strong and bold, but they are also guards of the current heirs of the noble houses. They take great care of the heirs and do their best to keep them alive and untouched by the wars beyond Nordua's borders.
The Guards of Nireath: 0/4 — While they may not be as strong and imposing as those from Tun, they are resourceful and ambitious guards who know how to win a war when push comes to shove. They are currently guarding the heirs from Nireath's noble houses and take great pride in this job.
The Guards of Araes: 0/4 — The glittering city has nothing on the guards that patrol the streets. Their steel is bright and their armor is blinding, always perfect to look at. It's not surprising that they are the most eye-catching of the guards as they work for the noble houses, protecting the heirs and ensuring the survival of the bloodlines.
Taken Roles.
The Heir of Rhaeclya: Daenara Velaeris — The current heir of Rhaeclya, she was named when she was 14 years old and has since maintained her position as the heir. Her parents have supported her claim and have made every House in Nordua swear to uphold her status as the heir. That being said, she is no fool and has been very aware of those who would wish her to give up her claim and surrender her future throne. Alongside her future king-consort, she has been carefully preparing for a potential fight for the throne. (played by social)
Lady of Whitehaven: Valaena Bryne — A noblewoman from across the seas, she married into the family that owned and operated Whitehaven, a castle in Tun, one with loyalty to the crown and a considerable military background. But her husband, the new keeper of this castle, was not one to ever back down or know his own limits. His thirst for glory in battle resulted in his untimely death. A widow, she was blessed with her husband's love and ability to keep Whitehaven under her control, a feat that has made other nobles nervous. (played by social)
The Commander of the Blade of Ayths: Aeryn Calgaris — A royal who was very quickly pushed away from the crown due to his impulsive and violent tendencies. He has since spent his time creating a special group of guards that patrol the city at night, executing punishments of criminals and those who deserve little mercy. He has a poor relationship with the heir and often will cause tension in court if he is ever invited. He tends to stick to what he likes and doesn't get caught up in court drama anymore. (played by social)
informationWelcome to 𝐅𝐢𝐫𝐞 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐁𝐥𝐨𝐨𝐝! This is not first-come-first-serve, meaning you will be accepted via PM if I feel your character is a good fit. If you do not receive an invite by the time I specify, that means your character has not been accepted. Please do not reach out asking how to get accepted into the roleplay because this defeats the purpose of it being acceptance-based. Please remember that if you do not get in it is nothing personal, it simply is due to the fact I did not feel the character fit the roleplay. That is the only reason. Discord is required for this roleplay as it will be our ooc/lore since it's far easier for me to keep track there. This roleplay also has an 18+ rule as I simply do not feel comfortable with having minors in this roleplay. Please read through the specific character sheet rules. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me.
Please Note: Familial connections between the royals do not have to be first cousins and things of that sort if you do not want them to be. This is especially true for those wanting to possibly ship their characters. We don't have to pull a GOT or HOTD unless you really want to. All royals will be considered a prince or princess. They also reside within the capital of Rhaeclya and most of the time live in the main castle. Those who live outside of the castle/capital usually are doing so because they no longer have the favor of the rulers.
Plot Summary.
This roleplay is indeed connected to another one I have, so some of the lore and kingdoms will be the same. However, this will take place 150+ years into the rule of the first kingdom of men, Rhaeclya, and the first great war they were involved in. As the sole reigning kingdom of an entire continent, it was viewed as a power that everyone wanted a piece of. If one controlled Rhaeclya, then they had access to the great wealth that filled Nordua. Vashil, another older kingdom, had become allies with Nordua and expressed an interest in strengthening Rhaeclya's royal bloodline. There had been discussions of marriage between the two royal families, but Vashil was more ambitious than Rhaeclya gave them credit for. They did not want a marriage, they wanted the throne. Upon arranging a marriage between a prince of Vashil and a princess of Rhaeclya, the King and Queen of Vashil broached the topic of succession within Rhaeclya and stated that they felt the throne would've been better protected if their son and his new wife were to sit it.
This was passed off as a humorous thing, a joke, and those within Rhaeclya chalked it up to nothing more than royal banter. But towards the end of the wedding between the prince and princess, members of Vashil's guard committed great treason, all in the name of their crown. They killed the princess and declared that Rhaeclya would soon fall and be taken by Vashil. Naturally this outraged Rhaeclya's current King and Queen and when they reached out to Vashil, they were greeted with ill-news. It was to be a war for who would take the Dragonfire throne and become the most powerful ruler in the realm. This was the official beginning of the War of Fire and Blood, which would persist for three years.
Now, the roleplay will start before the wedding and will follow members of Rhaeclya's royal family, royal guards, and those from noble houses all across Nordua. You will have the option to play characters who align with Rhaeclya's crown or ones that will align with Vashil's. There will be various battles and other tense moments within the roleplay that can result in character deaths or betrayals, all of which will be quite exciting. This will be pretty lore-driven as the war went in a specific way, but there is plenty of room for character growth, adventure, drama, and even romance. There will not be battles constantly happening, so the characters will be able to travel across Nordua and explore the different countries and the nobles that live there!
Available characters will be those within the royal family, nobles, and then those within the royal guard. If you have any questions regarding the plot or lore, please DM me! I am simplifying it for now but it will be expanded upon in the server!

If you have any questions, feel free to contact me.
Please Note: Familial connections between the royals do not have to be first cousins and things of that sort if you do not want them to be. This is especially true for those wanting to possibly ship their characters. We don't have to pull a GOT or HOTD unless you really want to.
Roleplay Rules.
• This roleplay is 18+!
• You are allowed only one heir if you are applying for multiple characters
• More roles may be added but for now, this is all that will be available.
• Currently keeping everyone who is applying at a two-character limit. This will change after being accepted.
• Do not harass anyone over roles or face claims
• Upon acceptance, arranged marriages between royals and nobles will happen but that does not mean the characters have to be considered romantically involved.
• KEEP THINGS EVEN. I do not want all heirs to be fem, all guards to be fem, and then like two masc characters. Please please count before applying. Sorry! Diversity people! Balance it out!
• If you need an extension CONTACT ME. If you do not contact me about an extension, none will be provided.
• This is NOT first come first serve
• No OP characters or dragons. This will be an immediate disqualification for the roleplay
• Realistic face claims or detailed descriptions will be allowed!
• Please keep characters balanced.
• All of RPN's rules apply

Available Roles.
The Forgotten Spare: 0/1 — Back when they were younger, they were the other possible contender for the throne. They had ambitions for it and they thought that they were the perfect one for the job. But then the Heir was named and they were cast to the side. Anger and frustration seemed to bubble up inside of them and caused them to distance themselves from the Heir as they did not find them fit to occupy the throne. Now, years have passed and those residual feelings may still be lingering, especially with all this talk of usurping the throne. (Royal)
The Rumored Bastard: 0/1 — A member of the royal family and a child of the current rulers, but there are whispers within the castle walls that they are a bastard, and that the King couldn't have any more children. These rumors have haunted them for years so they have tried their best to stay out of the limelight. Because of this, they have suppressed themselves and have not shown off their true colors. Their questions about their parentage have once again started to come to the surface and it is rather unsettling for them. (Royal)
The Rebellious Royal: 0/1 — Since their childhood, they have always pushed back against the rules and regulations that come with being a royal. They never agreed with it. It was always stifling and they wanted more out of life. At the first chance they got, they tried to break free, to run across Nordua and discover a world outside of politics and dances. But this rebellious phase has been forced to come to an end as they have been dragged back to the capital in order to have an arranged marriage, once again trapping them in the world they have rejected. (Royal)
The Fox of Rhaeclya: 0/1 — They have always tried to get involved in everyone's business within the royal family, their whispered words and mischievous glances always getting connected to drama and bad luck. They seem to get great joy out of toying with the royals and ultimately are out to save their own skin rather than the crown. A fox in a hen house, they have abused their power many times in order to get the information they want or orchestrate situations that would shine a poor light on their most recent victim. (Royal)
The New Arrival: 0/1 — Shortly before the wedding commenced, they arrived in the capital from outside of Rhaeclya, a stranger to court and ultimately many within the royal family. Whispers about where they came from and who their parents are have started to pop up around the castle and it seems like it has been pushing them to the outside. Now they haven't done anything wrong, but their presence is new and is ultimately distracting as nobody knows what they want after all this time. (Royal)
The Exiled: 1/1 — They were cast out to a remote location within Nordua over eight years ago due to their temperament and desire for the throne. They were pushed away and told to reflect, to enjoy their own castle and solitude where they could do no harm. Now almost a decade later they have returned and it seems they have matured considerably. Offering their support to the crown, they have been a model royal, but nobody knows what is going on behind that mask. (Royal)
The Heir of Castle Mirkworth: 0/1 — The oldest child of the current Lord of Mirkworth, they are actively preparing for the day that they will be in charge of this castle and will raise their banners in support of the crown. Being the closest castle to Rheaclya's capital, they mostly grew up around the royal family and consider them quite close as both families have married each other over the years. They are dedicated to their House and plan to push it to greatness when they inherit. (Noble of Rhaeclya)
The Heir of the Stormstrong Keep: 0/1 — The next to inherit the Stormstrong Keep, they are quite nervous about what will happen when they take it over. After all, they have been enjoying their independence, going around Nordua, offering counsel to lords and ladies, and entertaining members of the royal family. But now, that may come to an end sooner than later. They have been actively avoiding their future and instead have been talking about dreams of running away and never coming back. (Noble of Rhaeclya)
The Heir of Castle Winterstone: 0/1 — The heart of Tun, this noble family is known for their stoic expressions and strong morals. They tend to be the most politically involved and their heir is just as interested. They often have traveled to Rhaeclya in order to have a council with the royals and advocate for their mountain home. They are very brave and intelligent, able to fend for themselves even if they are outnumbered. Not one to be underestimated, they are a very valuable prize for a marriage. (Noble of Tun)
The Heir of Castle Stormbringer: 0/1 — The sister castle of the Stormstrong Keep, they have had close ties with Rhaeclya's nobility since the royals built the castle. While they no longer populate it, the current heir of the castle has always been fascinated with the royals. Per their country's well-known personality, they are often seen cozying up to royals, as if trying to get their claws into one and secure their tie to the crown. (Noble of Nireath)
The Heir of the Diamond Crest Tower: 0/1 — Well-known for their sharp and impenetrable armor, the nobles that populate this keep are often involved with the military and conflicts that Nordua finds itself in. The heir is in charge of their own small group of soldiers that patrol Araes, keeping it safe and clean from any blemishes that may tarnish its reputation. The Heir is a bit of a perfectionist and this can cause their personality to be a bit rough around the edges. (Noble of Araes)
The Heir of the Fallen Star: 0/1 — A house that is desperate to keep up a facade, they have been pushing responsibilities onto their heir's shoulders, hoping that they will be the key to fixing everything. Falling from the graces of the royal family isn't easily forgotten, and so for years, there has been constant damage control. Despite the fact that Araes is incredibly wealthy, the opinions of the crown are worth more than any gemstone. Will the heir be able to fix this broken reputation? Only time will tell. (Noble of Araes)
The Guards of Rhaeclya: 0/4 — The best of the best, they work in the capital of Rhaeclya and defend those within the royal family. They are extremely skilled in combat and have been training for this position for years. They usually alternate between patrolling the city and protecting the royals, depending on what the occasion calls for.
The Guards of Tun: 0/4 — They are warriors of Tun, strong and bold, but they are also guards of the current heirs of the noble houses. They take great care of the heirs and do their best to keep them alive and untouched by the wars beyond Nordua's borders.
The Guards of Nireath: 0/4 — While they may not be as strong and imposing as those from Tun, they are resourceful and ambitious guards who know how to win a war when push comes to shove. They are currently guarding the heirs from Nireath's noble houses and take great pride in this job.
The Guards of Araes: 0/4 — The glittering city has nothing on the guards that patrol the streets. Their steel is bright and their armor is blinding, always perfect to look at. It's not surprising that they are the most eye-catching of the guards as they work for the noble houses, protecting the heirs and ensuring the survival of the bloodlines.
Tun — House Harringlor, House Ackles, and House Vaelor.
Nireath — House Galarius, House Dragen, and House Celaleos.
