Thank you for an amazing two years of War of Royals. Most rp’s don’t stay open for two months, let alone two years. You have made being an admin an absolute joy of a time and i’m forever grateful.

Below is the ending of this roleplay, how i’d like the time in Khatanga to come to an end. This account focuses on the rebels who were hiding within the area and all of their muns weighed in on their finales. Under the cut contains triggers of violence and death. It’s rather glossed over but warning anyway!

The hostage situation might have felt as though it lasted for an extended period, but it was only a few hours. When the rebels finally put their plan into effect, they did it well. The entire area was shut down, with complete control over the power and internet. As far as they were aware, there was no way for anyone to get word out about what was happening in Khatanga. No phone call or text message would easily get out. The rebels surrounded the partygoers wielding weapons. Each time a guard attempted to stand up, they were easily disarmed, beaten, and thrown back to the sand. Over time, everyone was corralled into a small circle, far easier to control. In addition to handling the guards, anyone who attempted to stand up for themselves and their fellow hostages was quickly taken care of. The rebels made a point not to kill anyone but there were plenty of bruises, slashes, and broken bones among staff members and even some royals.

When the situation seemed to be under control, James Brixton reached out to the Council. It had long ago been decided that once the plan was thrown into action, the Council would decide the exact steps. They had a list of demands and would only reach out to the reigning monarchs with those demands once they were sure that the situation in Khatanga was under control. Everything that had been done in Russia had been done to show the monarchs that despite what they thought, they were not truly safe. More than that, they were not in complete control as they thought. No, the rebels were certainly capable of slipping in even where they thought they were safest. From now on, the monarchs would be forced to question who around them could be trusted.

The demand from the rebels was a simple one for the effort that went into the two-year siege. But it was not about the demands, it was about the message being sent. Throughout the globe, rebels were in holding waiting execution. They were all to be released, given modes of transportation so they could remove themselves safely, and they were not to be followed. Once that was done, the younger royals in Khatanga would be let free. It was an exchange, a way to show the reigning monarchs that the rebels stuck together and truly cared very little about the young royals.

The message was sent by the Council themselves and word was quickly received that the monarchs would work towards meeting those demands. Perhaps the rebels got cocky at that point, believing that the monarchs would never risk their children in the attempts of a rescue mission that could end in disaster. Without worry, the rebels in Khatanga continued to watch over their hostages, only knowing through James that the monarchs had given into their demand.

What no one realized was that the monarchs were willing to risk a rescue mission, knowing that there could be a loss of life. While the Council promised to release their children if they met the demand, they were not sure what was going on in Khatanga. How did they know that their children were not already suffering? Between the rebels and the changes to the technological infrastructure they had made for the social experiment, it was impossible to get a gauge on the current situation. Knowing they were flying without sight; they made the decision to take the risk.

The rescue mission was truly launched by the Russian monarchy as they could move the quickest. Kazakhstan, Mongolia, and China sent in back-up as they were the three countries closest to where Khatanga was in Russia. The rescue team moved swiftly when they finally touched the ground in Russia. First, they swept through the village. There were only fringe rebels there who were quickly silenced and any villagers who had not attended the lake party were taken to safety.

With the help of the darkness, the rescue team was able to sneak through without any of the Khatanga rebels knowing what was coming. Before making it to the lake party itself, they spread throughout the palace, knocking off any straggling rebels and making sure that any staff members of royals inside were safe and sound. Finally, finally, they reached the party, moving swiftly and silently.

The bonfire was kept burning so that the rebels could keep a good eye on their hostages. By the time the rescue team arrived, the royals, staff members, and visiting villagers were sitting in clumps. Some had their hands tied, others had clearly been dealt with physically, and there were a small group of guards who had been silenced indefinitely. Spreading out, the rescue team came up behind the dense line of rebels before they even knew what was coming.

And that’s the thing about fights. In the moment, they seem to last forever. Weapons fire at astronomically loud decibels, leaving people monetarily hard of hearing and in shock. Fists would fly towards faces and abdomens, each moment feeling like a lifetime. While it felt as though it was going in slow motion the rescue took only a few minutes. Despite their training and their planning, the rebels were no match for those coming to rescue the royals.

To make one final stand, Claire Darby went after a royal, but her attempt was quickly thwarted by Klaus Von Bulow. While the rebel guard did his absolute best to protect a princess from his former rebel friend, a brave Russian soldier approached the woman to take care of her once and for all. However, Oleander Hawthorne stepped in to protect her, leading to the two of them being restrained and pulled away from the scene. Both rebels were forced to join the group being carted away to jail for imprisonment, interrogation, and eventual execution unless the two could figure out how to escape. The two were thoughtful and cunning, they never doubted that they would figure it out. Meanwhile, the rebel that turned his back on his friends to protect a princess had her holding on and clutching to him for safety, refusing to let him go. It was her word that could keep him from being carted away in the same way the others did, her word that he should be by her side, keeping him from the same fate as many of his friends.

The Trulson siblings found themselves at an impasse. Casper Trulson attached himself to his royal best friend, not one for fighting. The fight simply was not in him and when it came down to it, he wasn’t interested in fighting for the cause his family put so much into. Therefore, he sided with the royals, knowing that there would be a punishment for keeping his knowledge hidden but also seeing that there would be a light at the end of the tunnel. His sister, however, was different. Solveig Trulson was a hell of a fighter, taking her stand there and then, no matter what her brother did. Like other rebels, she was restrained and pulled off, with her future bleak. Imprisonment, interrogation, and eventual execution was in her future as well. But the blonde, like Claire and Oleander, was a thoughtful and creative woman. Like her friends, she could figure out an escape before being taken to the gallows.

During the hostage struggle, Lilliana Carlisle stood with the rebels, fighting with all of her might. Though she and her dog had presented themselves as friends to the royals, when push came to shove, the woman had made her choice. She would stay with the rebels, come hell or high water. Unlike some of the rebels before her, however, Lilliana preferred to focus on her words, knowing she would find a way to talk herself out of execution. Could life in prison really be that bad? Lea Wolf had originally frozen when the rebels sprung into action, finally realizing that it was time. Not every rebel lived and breathed the mission, some joined up for their own personal vengeance against the royals. What truly ended up saving this rebel was that, like Klaus, she felt the need to do something heroic when push came to shove. Lea stepped up to save a prince, going against the rebel cause to keep him safe in the scuffle. Her actions earned her life in prison without the chance of execution. And Avery Sawyer? She went kicking and screaming, fighting with everything she hand in her. The guard stood by her fellow rebels as opposed to the royals she said she would protect in the short term. She wasn’t an easy one to take down but soon enough she was pulled and carted off for imprisonment and whatever the reigning monarchs felt fit best for punishment.

But what really ended the rebel siege in Khatanga was the death of James Brixton. As fiercely as the rest of the rebels fought, none of them compared to their leader. This was his mission and he refused to be taken alive. He worked to take down as many soldiers as he could, fighting as fiercely as he could muster. But James was only human and even he couldn’t survive a barrage of bullets. As he went down, so did the morale of the siege.

Over the next few hours, more and more soldiers came into the area, cleaning it out of rebels and bringing all royals to safety. The social experiment in Russia had come to an end, those who participated in it having been changed forever. Whether they be royal, rebel, staff, or villager, the last two years would stand as a change in their lives that would make waves for years to come.

For hours, the lake party went off without incident. Everyone was having a wonderful time and the events chosen were well received. There was absolutely no hint of trouble until the sun was setting. The bonfire was just being lit and supplies for smores being passed out when a flare was shot up from the trees on the other side of the lake. The confusion that fell over the crowds at the party didn’t last long though as panic set in. 

People came from behind, trapping the party-goers where they were. Numerous people at the people, those who some believed to be friends, stood up with the rebels, armed to the teeth in a way that didn’t seem possible. Guards were easily disarmed as it was made clear that the rebels were in control.

Despite all of their planning, despite everything, the royals weren’t as safe as had been expected.

Hi can I ask why you guys are no longer accepting applications? I’ve been eyeing this roleplay so I’m disappointed to see I can’t apply!

Hi anon, the roleplay will actually be ending in the next few weeks. We thought it unfair to let people join when it was entering its final chapter. We thought two years was a good time to bring this to an end, especially with all of the admins living extremely hectic lives.

—♗ Bishops never misbehave and for LEA NICOLE WOLF, the TWENTY-EIGHT-year old CHOCOLATE SHOP OWNER, that is a tradition SHE intends to keep. To others, SHE looks an awful lot like ELIZABETH LAIL and has been described as being AN ANGEL but behind closed doors, SHE is DECEPTIVE & REMORSEFUL but also STOIC & FRIENDLY. Most importantly though, SHE is a loyal REBEL. (CJ/32/CST/She/Her)

Welcome Lea Wolf, we want to thank you for your compliance in allowing the village to become a home to those far away from their own home and your chocolate shop to serve the people well. The fc of Elizabeth Lail is now taken! Please check out the checklist and send in your account within twenty-four hours.

What is your character’s gender?: Cis Female

Are you filling a wanted connection? If so, which one?: Sorta. I’ve talked to Kayla about her wanted connection for the villager fling that was originally created with Lea, when I had the character prior. And I have also talked to Nat about the connection between Solveig and Lea. And Kayla and Jayme have said it is okay to have an aunt be the person Lea accidentally kills.

Please provide three headcanons about your character:

(TW: Death, Murder Mention)

Love is a funny thing. For Lea Wolf, the love for her fiance meant everything and the pair were inseparable. She wholeheartedly believed she knew everything about the man, except there was one huge secret that was being kept from her; his involvement with the Rebels. When the Rebel Roundup happened, Tobias was taken for the slaughter.

However, the picture that was painted in Lea’s head was one of loyalty and revenge owed to the man she loved. Believing he was wrongly accused, the young woman did what she could and confronted the only member of the Dutch royal family that had given her the time of day, and in doing so, her anger resulted in actions that caused the woman to die in front of her.

Knowing she would be sentenced to death, if she were ever caught, Lea turned to the only person she could think of, that she had prayed would be able to help her; Tobias’ good friend, Solveig. And in doing so ended up being recruited by the rebels as a means to keep her safe from the Dutch Royals. Upon arriving in Khatanga for her first real mission, Lea was tasked with setting up a cover, which resulted in Zucker Lügt being created, and how she met Matthias Meijer. The two became quite smitten with each other early on, and unbeknownst to him, Lea knew exactly who she was dealing with; following her instructions to get closer to the man and spy on him. Unfortunately, she had also begun to have feelings for him and the kind and funny man he was turning out to be. Something she never thought she’d experience again after the death of Tobias. However, the truth soon came out about who he was and the man she was falling fast and hard for left her heartbroken. And not wanting to see him or anyone else for the time being, Lea became a hermit. Only leaving when she absolutely needed to, passing on Zucker Lügt’s ownership to someone else temporarily. After many months of hiding out, Lea finally made her way back into society and resumed her position as owner of the chocolate shop.While her status as a Rebel is still instated, Lea knows this isn’t the life she had planned for herself. Everyday she feels guilt for accidentally causing a woman’s death, and it hurts even more knowing that it was a member of Matthias’ family. But if her true identity is ever found out, Lea knows any chance at living life at all is over.

Please provide two or more connection ideas for your character:

To Love Again: Lea’s love life has taken a hard hit twice within a short amount of time. She’s not sure she’ll ever be able to fall for someone in quite the same way again, so it would take a very special person for her to trust she’s not going to end up heartbroken again. Is your character that person?

A Best Friend: While Lea does have Solveig in her life, the pair only knew each other via her deceased fiance, and to Lea, Solveig is more of a mentor and guide in the new life she’s leading as a rebel. But Lea would love a best friend. Someone to talk to, hang out with, and to just have a shoulder to cry on. Unfortunately, she can’t tell everything about her life, but if you’re looking for someone who is caring, fun, and loyal you will find that in Lea.

Please answer the following questions IC:

How do you feel about your home being overrun by royals?

"This isn't really my home, so I'm not too concerned about it. I mean, don't get me wrong, the people here are lovely, but this is just a chapter in my life, and one day I shall return to my beautiful home country of Austria, when my time as owner of Zucker Lügt has run its course."

What is your favorite or least favorite part about living in the village?

"I suppose it is lovely to look at on my walk to the chocolate shop, and most people offer a kind smile whenever I'm out and about running errands. My least favorite thing...some people are just...hard to look at." Lea laughed softly.

What do you think you contribute to the village?

"Why delicious chocolate of course! I have one customer who frequents the shop. I swear I truly believe she's the reason we've stayed in business so long."

Does your character own a shop in town? If so, please provide the name, a short description blurb, and link a photo so that it can be added to the locations page.

Yes. She is the owner of Zucker Lügt, which is already on the locations page from the last time she owned the chocolate shop.

— ♔ In the past, people were born royal and for LÉONIE DIANE KÖNIG the TWENTY EIGHT-year-old PRINCESS of SWITZERLAND, that is a tradition SHE intends to keep. To others, SHE looks an awful lot like VICTORIA PEDRETTI and has/have been painted as MERCURIALLY DISTANT but behind closed doors, SHE is AMBITIOUS & EASILY BOTHERED but also PATIENT & CREATIVE. It has also been said they are NOT BETROTHED. (b/23/est/she+they)

Welcome Princess Léonie König, we hope you enjoy your stay and represent your country of Switzerland well! The fc of Victoria Pedretti and the country of Switzerland are now taken! Please check out the checklist and send in your account within twenty-four hours. Please check out the checklist and send in your account within twenty-four hours.

What is your character’s gender?: cis woman 

Are you filling a wanted connection? If so, which one?: darling gracie’s twin connection 

Please provide three headcanons about your character: 

Headcanon One: It would be easy for Léonie to feel guilty of her brother — she has ambition and goals, but all the same, she is no one without him by her side. She knows she’ll never take his place as crown heir unless something tragic happens, but it’s never crossed her mind. Of everyone succeeding and surpassing her, only Frédéric can do so without her gnashing her teeth and feeing her heart clench, green and envied. And so, she acts as his right hand. She keeps her chin up and temper even — she brings him down when his rage peaks. 

Headcanon Two: Perhaps it’s odd, to be so privileged and to wish for anonymity. She knows she wouldn’t be the same were she born under different circumstance, but she ponders the idea of a quiet life — one in a countryside, untouched by most all, one where she can paint and dream and do nothing with consequence. It’s a pipe dream, and she tries not to dwell on it. In moments alone, she draws in a sketchbook. She draws mornings and portraits, of herself in scapes that could never exist.

Headcanon Three: The idea of being married off to someone, perhaps a stranger, is somewhat unappealing. She knows it’s likely — she knows it should have happened by now. Some say she’s alone, but she doesn’t feel lonely. She has her brother, a handful of friends. It’s few but it’s enough.

 Please provide two or more connection ideas for your character: 

Connection One: i know i said Léonie is comfortable in being alone, but I’d love someone to challenge that thought. She’s stubborn and not easily swayed, but I’d love for her to realize having more friends — platonic, romantic or otherwise — isn’t a bad thing. 

Connection Two: hot girl art club hot GIRL ART CLUB — someone figures out there’s more to her than a quick tongue and well-versed at political diplomacy and negotiation. Maybe they make her realize it’s a better talent than she realizes. 

Please answer the following questions IC: 

What is one thing you are proud of/love about your country? 

“The edelweiss — it’s our national flower.” For a second, the corners of her mouth pull upwards, a small smile gracing the face of a woman who seems apathetic more often than not. “It’s soft and delicate, and it reminds me of winter and better times. My mother favored it and it’s always made me feel closer to her to like it as well.” Her fingers are clasping the stem of the fragile plant, and then she systematically begins pulling off its petals. Her nose wrinkles, her head tilts — “Regrettably, I do think it to be quite ugly.” 

What is the most important thing in your suitcase? 

It isn’t a question she’ll answer genuinely. She knows what it is entirely, easy, her little sketchbook and a set of watercolour paints. She doesn’t say it though. Instead, she shrugs. “I’m not sure anything is special enough for me to consider it important. Perhaps, a few photos of my home.” 

Who and/or what will you miss most from home? 

“The person I care for most came alongside me — Frédéric, clearly. How could you expect me to answer anything else? He’s my brother, my best friend.” It’s not a lie, and never could be. They were as close as a pair could be, and she never was dismayed by it.

Rumors flowed freely for weeks as the tension between the Netherlands and Russia mounted. No one in Khatanga truly knew what was going on between the two monarchies as communication was limited. The only thing that anyone could hold onto were different rumors. The Netherlands and Russia were going to war. World War IV was just around the corner and it was all because the Dutch prince insisted on marrying the Russian princess.

Although these rumors swirled for weeks after Matthias gave Maggie the engagement ring, none of them proved to be true. In the background, the Russian and Dutch monarchs were working closely to figure out a deal that would not lead to war and one that would make all of their allies happy in the wake of such a selfish folly on the part of the Dutch prince.

In a bid to help out Khatanga, the Netherlands promised to lower tariffs on produce destined for Russia, especially produce destined for the small village where the royals were secretly being held. In return, Russia would lower tariffs on steel to be used for wind turbines in the Netherlands.

While neither country is pleased with the actions of their children, they feel as though they have come up with a fair plan to keep tensions down and relations strong.

OOC: The second test is now complete! Feel free to have your characters respond to the now confirmed engagement of Matthias and Maggie, as well as the trade deals.
