help why did i do this
basic info.
The Emperor has fallen ill, lying in the shadows, ready to claim the heavenly throne are his eight children. Set in a fictional land named the Eastern Kingdom, Eastern Kingdom: Battle of Xuanwu is loosely based of the Xuanwu Gate coup and fight of the nine princes for any one who is also a history nerd. Except in this version, women have rights to the throne too. The story is set in the 1700s.

The playable roles are as follows: 4 Princes (王)The sons of the emperor, 4 Princess Consorts(王妃)The wives of the princes, 4 Princesses(公主)The daughters of the emperor, Dukes(驸马)The husbands of the Princesses, 4 Secondary Consorts(侧妃)The concubines of the princes, 4 Secondary wives(室妾)The concubines of the dukes.  

The RP will have 3 events. The first is the emperor's birthday celebration where he falls gravely ill. In this week long event, characters will take sides, scheme, find allies, 'gather supplies'(points), plot and spy on each other. The second event is wedding season. In order to secure a better claim to the throne, unmarried princes and princesses will wed their engagement partners. Married characters can attempt to foil weddings. The final event will be the battle, where the eight (or remaining) princes and princesses will go to war for the throne. Winner takes all. The fight will be planned through a dice roll activity.

Note: Not every prince/princess needs to fight for the throne, some can simply support their siblings or stay neutral. In between the event, the players are encouraged to have their own individual plots.
rules & guidlines.
1. Each player may have up to 2 characters of the same
gender and 3 characters of different genders.

2. IC drama is welcome, as there will be battles, fighting,
etc. I will keep the entire rp rated but please put
trigger warnings before your posts. OOC drama is unwelcome you will be kicked withou warning.

3. In the event you have to leave before the final event,
please arrange your character's IC death.
 
4. PLEAse be realistic. no mpreg. it's the 1700s, your character is allowed to be of any uality but it is the 1700s after all. 
 
5. No modern day technology for the same reasons.
 
6. the rp will only open when all 8 princes and princesses
have players.
 
7. password is your character's motivation for the
throne if you are applying for a prince/princess role.

PRINCESSES ARE CLOSED

face claim: nmb48 lee siyeon
oc name: xinyi
role: princess
age: 22
password: as one of the youngest royal children, xinyi has always been known for her rather sunshine-like disposure, adored by the kingdom, but never seriously considered for the throne. her past with sickness doesn't help either. but xinyi herself is more of a wild-card than people think - although she acts very sweetly on the outside, her mind is more often fickle than not, and her past only makes her more passionate in experiencing whatever she can easily in the present. so it depends on how she's treated by others.. if she feels bored or mistreated, that's more than enough reason in her eyes to take a shot for absolute power, so she can experience it all...

face claim: dreamcatcher's JiU (Kim Minji)
oc name: Jingyi
role: princess
age: 27
password: a middle child of the emperor Jingyi currently has no motivation for the throne, though her mother does. One of the Emperor's concubines Jingyi's mother has twisted intentions. Having raised her daughter in the pursuit of power she doesn't hesitate to exploit her quiet and tenderhearted nature to anyone she deems worthy. As time passes Jingyi may be overcome with the same greed as her mother or realise that with the throne's power she might finally be free.

fc: park chaeyoung
name: caiying
role: concubine
age: 24
pw (tw: death) : following the capture of her family from a raided village just a few years into her early teen years, caiying was introduced to a life of tyranny and despair. she could no longer take advantage of the hobbies and things she loved to do with her family, forced into a routine fit for the lowest sentient being. her family was killed off ruthlessly, caiying the only remaining survivor for her looks and potential to "serve" the kingdom. though her hopes of returning to her homeland have been completely and utterly destroyed, her drive is what sets her passions ablaze. she hopes to wreak havoc and chaos upon the very kingdom that stripped her comforts away from her, each day at a time. each man that takes advantage of her, she vows to run into the ground just as the kingdom had done to her and her family--all with a sweet smile upon her face.

fc: zhou jieqiong
name: xiaosheng
role: concubine
age: 23
pw: (tw: death). xiaosheng’s mother was a concubine herself, having affiliated herself with men of great political power. despite being born as the illegitimate daughter to a powerful man, xiaosheng never reaped the benefits, instead seeing her half-siblings accomplish far beyond her own means. how proud her mother must be now, seeing her own daughter follow in her footsteps alongside the royal family. now 23 with her own child, her three year old son jianyu, xiaosheng wishes to find a way to push him in the light of success. how unfortunate it is that her mother was executed by her own patriarch’s jealous wife. surely xiaosheng won’t face the same fate, right?

Faceclaim: Lee Dongmin
Oc name: Xiahua
Role: Duke
Ic age: 28
Password: With special opportunities being hard to come by, it was only natural that he’d seize the chance to marry a princess. It benefited him, of course. It didn’t have to mean anything, if it worked for them both. He’d become the only child to a rich family and spoiled out of his mind, and it was still a delight when he it was proposed that he marry a princess. He could use it, he could use her. He sits comfortably in his position as a duke, to the outside world remaining a hardworking partner. However, unbeknownst to anyone but the two of them, he is regularly entertaining one of the princes for some nighttime company..

Question- can the concubines of the princes be male? Or do they have to be female?
And do the princes wives have to be female or could they be male and frowned upon? Sorry if that’s a dumb question ^^;;

face claim: dilreba dilmurat
oc name: fengli (鳳李)
role: princess
age: 32
password: eldest daughter of the emperor, fengli upheld the values and virtues that had been bestowed upon her as the eldest daughter. daughter to a concubine and twin sister to her brother that had been sent away from home, it was fengli who defended her mother from unfavorable eyes who wished to do her mother harm. without her brother, fengli silently learned and watched from afar the workings of the palace. how some maids would stay a bit too long within her chambers; how some eunuchs dared not to lower their gaze; how she endured the long years of the arranged marriage she had been offered at the hands of the emperor and the queen. seperated from her mother and brother, fengli kept the appearance of a subserviant wife until she had been called to the castle by order. the emperor was ill, and her brother had returned.

Fc: Kim Ok-Bin
Ic: Wei (I can’t think of a name-)
Role: princess consort
Age: 29
Password: Wei had an overwhelming thirst for power ever since she was younger. A hunger so deep and dark that nothing could get in her way of getting what she wanted. She didn’t care for love. She only had one goal. To get her husband on the throne. To make him her little puppet to feed her lust for power. To reign destruction and burn the world down until the people had no choice but to depend on her and her husband only. (Under con)

YO WTF NOT THE PRINCESSES HAVING A HUSBAND WITH A CONCUBINE WHILE THE PRINCES GET TWO WIVES T_____T

fc: song joongki
oc name: yuqiang
role: prince
ic age: 26
password: Yuqiang's quest for the throne is driven by a desire to survive. He's seen it time and time again in other kingdoms, it's a common story, there is only one survivor in a quest for the throne. Even if he were to withdraw and show no interest, whoever wins could still perceive him as a threat and kill him anyway. Does he really have a choice in this? If he doesn't try to become the next emperor, he might as well just roll over and die. He doesn't care about the people, or even think he's the best for the job. He just wants to not die.
