MERCIA Welcome to Mercia! This kingdom is rather kind now, though aggressive toward their enemies. They had a long war with Camelot, which ended finally with a treat and alliance. They now seem to be a much more peaceful place. |

Queen |
Kalidara Sansar RPed by HeartShapedLocket The gentle Queen, the one who seems to be more concerned with her garden than her kingdom. At least, that's what Kaildara Sansar appears to be to other kingdoms. However, this crimson haired wife to the King is much more than a pretty face. And pretty she is- her hair is like the flames in a fireplace. Mostly red, but there are hints of orange and yellow when the sun catches it right. Her skin is milky white, like porcelain, and blemish free. Kalidara, or Kali for short, has warm hazel eyes. Everything about this young thirty-five year old queen radiates warmth. Queen Kali is often spotted out in her royal garden- the queen's prized possession. There, exotic flowers bloom attracting a myriad of different insects and birds. Her favorite are the speedy hummingbirds that zip from flower to flower, collecting nectar. Kali finds the most peace there in her garden. In a time where war is rampant and crime rates soar high, peace is hard to come by. Although many mistake her fondness of the garden as neglect of her kingdom. Kali loves her kingdom fiercely, and would protect it's people until she breathed her last breath. She seems delicate and fragile, like the flowers she loves, but the "Red Queen" has a backbone. She isn't ignorant when it comes to war plans and battle strategies, which are usually left up to the men. Queen Kali is active in her kingdom and aims to create a nice atmosphere for all who live there. |
Crowned Prince | Trent Sansar RPed by Echolight4eva An adorable boy of three years old, Trent is a spoiled little boy. He is completely used to getting his way and has a special way of doing it. First, he'll ask for what he wants in a sweet little voice. Then, he'll look up into the benefactor's face with his chocolate-brown eyes and make them bigger and bigger, his bottom lip quivering just so. He normally gets it then. He doesn't want to be the crowned prince so much as he does a daring knight who rides a white horse and goes on daring adventures, saving damsels in distress. Everybody says he will be handsome someday, with a cherub face and tousled brown hair. He particularly fond of playing tricks on the maids of the castle, for instance, putting frogs and dead mice in their beds. He enjoys spending time in the barracks or out in the training yard, watching the knights train and spar. What he wouldn't give to be big and strong like that! But he has to settle for learning to run a kingdom. And like I said, he would much rather be a brave, handsome knight. He has tried multiple times to get a knight to let him ride their horse, but they never let such a young boy ride their horse. He hopes to own a horse someday, and plans on being the best king Mercia has ever seen. Some might call him a troublemaker, but he's really just trying to have fun in his own way. |
Wards |
Rhoswhen Starkfeather RPed by HeartShapedLocket Rhoswen was born and raised as a proper noblewoman, with impeccable manners and etiquette that her mother instilled in her from a young age. She was the only Starkfeather child and the prized little jewel of her parents. They never forgot to remind their daughter how much they loved her. Sure, she was a little spoiled, but what child isn’t? Rhoswen, affectionately called Rhos by those she knows, never let herself get a big head. It wasn’t considered attractive to be full of yourself, so Rhos always kept a humble personality. She was a sweet child, not the kind to throw a temper tantrum in public or disobey her parents. Her easy-going nature continued up through her teenage years, making her the type of child that her parents loved to boast about. Unfortunately, her good luck didn’t last and her parents were murdered, leaving Rhoswen an orphan. Since she is a girl, her family’s legacy and fortune were not allowed to go to her, instead going to her uncle on her father’s side of the family. Rhos, in turn, went to live with her mother’s sister, Queen Kalidara of Mercia. Now, instead of being turned over to the streets, Rhos is able to live comfortably in a castle. While nothing but grateful, Rhoswen feels as though there is something missing in her life. Things have been too simple for her. There is no excitement in anything. The most exciting part of the day is choosing her outfit. Rhoswen is a bird, caged and restless. She wants to break free of her mundane life. The last thing she wants is to settle down with some rich, fat duke and give him babies. No- Rhoswen would much rather travel and see the sights of the world! She wants to be the kind of interesting woman that people whisper about at parties. Scandalous, maybe. Always something new and exciting. So this once docile creature is beginning to flap her wings- with the help of some new friends. |
Estelle Starkfeather RPed by Echolight4eva With delicate features and a small frame, you wouldn't expect her personality. Well, actually, yes you would. Estelle is a quiet young lady with a demure personality, befitting of her status. Being the daughter of a queen makes you, well... Polite. But she wasn't always this way. When she was a young girl, around eight or ten, she was adventurous and fun, never afraid to get her skirts dirty. She would always sneak out at night and run around the castle, bathed in moonlight. But her favorite thing to do was go and explore the woods with her friends (or servants, rather.) One day, though, the girl got hurt. And I mean badly. She was running through the woods and she wasn't looking where she was going. The girl fell down and both of her legs broke in the process. She never walked properly again, nor would she regain her adventurous spirit. Now Estelle can only barely walk now, many years later. She cannot move without her cane. She is so embarrassed about the way she is now that she rarely shows her face in public and doesn't really come around. Her favorite place in the world now is the library. She spends hours in the room, poring over novels of exciting adventures because even though she cannot conduct her own adventures, she can still read about others'. Estelle has beautiful auburn hair and piercing green eyes. |

Nobles |
Cedric Fletcher RPed by Crystalfrost He's the embodiment of "tall, dark, and handsome." 29 year old Cedric is one of the most mysterious and alluring people you will ever meet. He has long brown, almost black, hair and unfathomable midnight blue eyes, all together with a strong, handsome face that always seems to wear a serious expression, with perhaps the occasional smile. He can be charming, when he wants to, in a kind of dark and enigmatic way. He can be infuriating with what little information he shares, how little he says. He says what he wants to, when he wants to, and no more. He currently poses as a noble in Mercia, as to be close to Ilyana the white dragon. He rarely poses to be anything but a noble, seeing how he was actually born one, in Camelot. The sigil of his family, the Fletchers, is a golden arrow. |
Royal Servants |
Aeir Skyhaert RPed by LightInMyDream Aeir Skyhaert is one of the most gentlest souls you'll find in Merica this day and age. She can be found in a old church on the outskirts of Mercia most of the time. Aeir's grandmother left her a florist shop which she runs when she isn't taking care of Trent. She has had many people compliment her on her looks, but to her it's whats inside that counts, no matter the situation or complication. Her hair falls down her back in long wavy chocolate brown tresses that she usually wears in a braid down her back, or loose when she's not working. Her eyes are a bright spring green that you rarely see anymore in Mercia that light up like stars when she's in a good mood. Aeir isn't helpless as weak as she may look though, and has proved that to many knights who thought they could mess with her. She's quite adept with a staff, and sometimes carries it around with her if she thinks she's going out of the castle. Aeir has a secret that could get her killed, or banished from Mercia that only her deceased mother knows about, and had taken to her grave. Aeir is what people would call a witch; someone having the ability to use magic. She can heal about any wound, and has the ability to connect with the spirits of the dead or living. She can talk to others dreams, and can look at past events that had already occurred. There are some people that want to capture her to try and raise the dead, or just flat out want to kill the girl. |
Knights |
Dalton Ravensdale RPed by Crystalfrost This tall, handsome young knight is all smiles and friendliness, but he harbors the burden of a dark past. When he was a squire, he discovered his father and mother, nobles both of them, were magic-users, sorcerers. He was fifteen then, his brother only ten, and to this day Felix doesn't know it was Dalton who turned their parents in. The young boy, like the rest of the kingdom, was forced to watch the execution. That was the day he became responsible for his brother's safety. Dalton still believes what he did was right, but don't think he didn't love his mother and father, or that he hates them now. He misses them dearly, or at least the people he thought they were. The 21 year old man likes to joke and talk, but when a serious situation arises Dalton is a stone-faced fighter. He is talented at sword-fighting and archery, and isn't bad at jousting. He trained his horse, a black stallion named Matrix, from a foal, and the two of them are perfectly in sync. He has short blond hair and blue eyes that are almost but not quite as shocking as his brother's. |
Jeanne Crux RPed by LightInMyDream A orphaned child with a bad habit of sacrificing everything for everyone elses needs. She has long blonde hair that she keeps braided down her back, and pale purple eyes. Born a peasant, Jeanne grew up in a hrash environment- especially since she had no parents. Until the age of five she was on her own until the church of Mercia took her in. Many call her Joan; or mouse. |

Squires |
Felix Ravensdale RPed by Crystalfrost A good-looking boy with blond hair and stunning blue eyes. Felix aspires to be a great knight someday, just like his older brother Dalton. He looks up to his brother, since the man practically raised him. He knows little about what happened to their parents, only that they were 'guilty of treason.' Felix can be rebellious, and half the time the only person who can get through to him is Dalton. He'd do anything for his brother, and feels ashamed when he's disappointed him. He doesn't seem to have the forethought to avoid doing it in the first place, though. |

Commoners | Nathaniel Greyback RPed by HeartShapedLocket He's gruff, unshaven and mostly overlooked. As a commoner of Mercia, Nathaniel Greyback doesn't get very much attention in the peaceful kingdom, but the weapons he forges do. Though no one knows his name, his symbol is carved into all the armor of the Royal Army. It is a wolf head, snarling with its teeth flashing. A terrifying thing to behold, the wolf represents his name: Greyback. Nathaniel is a large man, with broad shoulders and intimidating size. His mahogany hair is buzzed short to keep out of his face, and he has electric green eyes. What no one knows is that he is actually the half-brother of Queen Kalidara. The queen's noble father had an affair with a lowly bar-maid on one drunken night and conceived a child. A b*stard child, who would never grow up with his father because he was too much of an embarrassment to the family name. He was given a common last name, Greyback, as many other b*stard children were given. Nathaniel was raised by his mother and spent his days chasing stray dogs and rats for food during the dark ages of Mercia. When his dear half sister, whom he never met, took up the thrown and the kingdom began to improve, Nathaniel took up making weapons. His shop is located on the outer area of Mercia, near the city entrance. He hardly has any close friends, only some drinking buddies, and no family. His mother passed away when he was sixteen. Nathaniel is twenty two, two years older than Kalidara. He has never given much thought to visiting the queen because his story would be dismissed as a lie. |
