The Story of the King and his Daughter Interest Thread

Greetings to all! After some thinking, I came up with a good story idea.

The plan is this: The current King of Byzantine Island (a nation which descended from Byzantium), Alexander II plans an act that most would not do. The planned act is to kill his daughter, Princess Sophia. Now why would he do this? Because, a group of men organized it, or was it the King? Who knows?

Now, I would like for the Princess to go on a trip to a nation, any nation on the forums. They should give her a guard or two, the main guard will be a Hero figure in the story. The assassins will try to get to the Princess to kill her, so they sneak into the nation and try to find her.

Here are a list of roles you can play:
Assassins (if people would like them to be hired)
The Heroic Guard
Guards
Reception in the Nation

I will be the King and Princess in this. There may be other roles, possibly.

So, is anyone interested?

Also, note that perhaps I could have a group of mercenaries from another nation force the King to do this, I don't know. The King, if this is, could turn on them, I don't know.

Also, Princess Sophia is the heir to the Throne of Byzantine Island, as a daughter of the King, Alexander of BI.

Just to state, that when I get some interest, we can get this going.

i could be the host nation.

Kirisubo, my primary nation is based on a Japan that never lost the ways of the samurai, its divine emperor or a world war.

on the map it would be another japan sized group of islands 100 miles east of Japan.

they speak kirisuban and english and the modern and the ancient co-exist. they've no crime and look dimly on people who would try and cause trouble in the nation.

Sure. You could be the host nation. You would be the heroic guard as well, because the heroic guard comes from the host nation. Only one of your guards can be the heroic guard though. Thanks for being the host nation, Hok-Tu/Kurisubo.

NOT that I am trying to be rude to anyone. Also, if you would like, I think we can get this started. However, if anyone is interested in this role:

''In Byzantine Island, a group of rebels or foreign mercenaries (I am liking mercenaries more) wants to take power..''

Please post here. This group can force the King to have his daughter killed, later he turns on them, the rebels are defeated and the Princess is saved.

Earlier, I did not know if I wanted to add this role in this but I've decided to.

I could supply the assasins. There are two primary mercenary organizations in Siap: Tactical Solutions, a subsidary of Skyetech Industries, extremely professional, expensive, dicscrete.

The other is the St. Michael's detective agency, which is less expensive, still efective, but extremely brutal.

St. Michael's detective agency is tied to a shadowy criminal organization that could play the cabal that wants to take power in your nation.

All that is ok with me, I guess. Would you have St. Michael's, etc as the assassins or would those be from the organization it is tied to?

Just tell me stuff like that, so I can make sure of things. Thanks. I am thinking of using St.Michael's perhaps. Or we could do both or a mix, I don't know. We can discuss it.

The St. Michael's detectives would be the assasins. St. Michael's detective agency is one of many fronts for a network led by a man known as "The Client" or "Mr. X" (Kind of like Kaiser Soze in The Usual Suspects) The Client rarely exposes himself, but uses his fronts and his associates to accrue power. Sean St. Michael was financed by Aspen Investment to create his detective agency, after managing security at docks owned by The Client. The St. Michael Detective Agency is comprised mostly of Siapian military veterans who have undergone additional training (but not as substantial as Tactical Solutions). I can provide mor einformation if needed.

More info would be ok. The info here is good, thanks. We can start this if you want. I would like to start this with the assassins, etc having a ''meeting'' with the King.

Perhaps we could have foreign mercenaries want to take power? Who knows. Anywho, we can start this.

Could we put this on hold for a while? My internet access will be sporadic over this week.
