In a country where the study of science is prohibited, an evil queen manipulates her people through fear. She has convinced them that she has magical abilities. In all actuality, magic does not exist and no one practices it. In order to convince her people of her "magical" feats, she has hired secret scientists which work in her kingdom. Nobody knows of the existence of these scientists and since the scientists relish in their power, they of course keep mum about their dirty work. The queen manipulates everyone's lack of scientific knowledge in order to rule by terror. Many of the queen's people are unwilling to go against her wishes because they think she might turn them into frogs or kill them with an icy glare.
Despite this horrible reign, there are a few dubious and courageous souls who seek the truth. Two of these are Theophilus and Aderes. The queen has heard rumors of a few people studying science and has set out with her army scourging the country side for them. If her rumors of magical abilities were debunked, after all, she would lose all her power.
Some general rules:
1. This is a made up world with made up geography. However, it is most certainly medieval. This means no technology. No cars, no highways, no computers, etc etc.
2. Absolutely no magic is to be involved.
3. Sexual content should be kept at a PG-13 level.
4. You can have three main characters.
5. No excessive swearing.
6. All characters must be human.

I will be playing three characters.
Name: Theophilus
Gender: Male
Age: in his 60s
Occupation: Mentor
Appearance: Theophilus is an old and grisly man. He darkened skin is clear evidence of his age, but his bright blue eyes still seem to shine. He stands a good six feet tall and usually must walk with the use of a cane. He speaks always with patience, and his voice is usually collected and calm. He usually wears robe-like attire which shrouds him in comfort and neutral colors.
Background: Theophilus took over Adere's upbringing at a young age. He is wise and has a strong faith in God. Throughout his years, he has always been an advocate for justice and truth. His whole life's work has been geared towards debunking the queen's lies. However, he is aware that his age is a problem, and therefore hopes that Aderes will carry the dream forward.

Name: Aderes
Gender: Male
Age: 24
Occupation: Student
Appearance: Aderes is young and dashing. His hair is choppy and brown, and his face is adorned with sparkling brown eyes. He prefers much lighter clothing than his counterpart and looks to be quite strong. He also wears neutral colors so as to avoid any attraction.
Background: Aderes is fool-hardy, impatient, and doubtful about everything. He tends not to think things through. Although he considered Theophilus to be a father like figure, he struggles to be understanding of the older man's slower ways. He has the deepest respect for Theophilus, even if he doesn't always show it.

Name: Queen Jezebel
Gender: Female
Age: 73
Occupation:...the queen
Appearance: Queen Jezebel is strikingly different from most of the people she rules. Her long auburn hair only lends to people's fright of her, and she also has bright blue eyes. Due to the rarity of blue eyes, she secretly feels threatened by others with similar eyes. She is always draped in bright red clothing which marks royalty. The glare which comes from her face is cruel, stern, and fright-invoking. Confidence marks her every move.
Background: Calculating and cruel, Jezebel took the throne after the late king. Despite her age, she appears young and spry. Most people under her reign do not remember the days before she ruled. She is merciless and will do whatever it takes to maintain her power and lavish lifestyle.
