overview.
My Esteemed Lords and Ladies,
It seems that the season has only just begun, however tragedy has already crept into this most glorious and festive time. In the early hours of the morning, our illustrious Diamond of this season, Juliana Devereux, was found dead on the grounds of her family manor.
At first it nearly appeared the young lady had potentially fallen from her balcony in a tragic accident. However, one of the ladies' maids has revealed the door to her rooms had been broken open, and the room itself had been in some state of disarray when they went to wake her the next morning.
As we enter a period of mourning for our Diamond taken far too soon, many questions remain. Will the Queen pick a new Diamond? Was this an accident, or something more nefarious? And who would dare do such a cruel, vile act to the Queen's favorite if it was?
All balls and parties will be put on hold for the week, as ordered by The Queen, says rumor from The Palace. In the meantime, it is staunchly recommended that all young lords and ladies keep their wits about themselves.

rules
rules.
rule one.
We will be using a Discord server for all plotting, updates, and communication. Out of character and in-character activity are both necessary. We will be using a turn-based posting system, which means that each group of characters will have an order to post in. Groups of 2 will have a deadline of 7 days and groups of 3 or more will have a deadline of 5 days once it is an individual's turn to post. There will be a designated channel for any absence notices. The mods can only ensure that post deadlines do not conflict with absences if we receive proper notice. Deadlines missed without notice or a request in advanced for an extension will result in an interest check and potential removal from the roleplay. We will implement a three-strike system if needed.
rule two.
While there will be some goal-oriented scenes, the roleplay is primarily mystery, romance, and slice-of-life. Plotting is essential to maintain interest and create investment in the story. Please do not pursue the roleplay if you do not feel comfortable reaching out to other roleplayers to plot and collaborate. Since romance is a prominent theme, we ask that everyone have respect for one another's boundaries. Additionally, we ask that everyone refrain from pre-shipping or "endgaming" early in the roleplay. Not only are drops common, but it can also take months to understand your own character and someone else's. Give yourselves time. There is no rush.
rule three.
All roleplayers must be 18+. The roleplay is a queer, BIPOC friendly. The families have designated ethnic backgrounds and we ask that everyone respect that. Racism, colorism, whitewashing, etc. will not be tolerated. We followed the Bridgerton theme of using English first names, but feel free to deviate from this. All characters will be between 18-35 years old.
rule four.
Roles are not first come, first serve. There will be an application process before we move onto character sheets. We are not accepting placeholders. The character limit is currently 1, but we will potentially open for doubling at a later date. We have a strong preference for avoiding the use of popular actors as we feel this often creates bias towards the character. We are open to small actors and signed models. We are not accepting influencers who are not signed with a modeling or acting agency.
