RP MEME: MEDIEVAL TIMES

[cerebel]

Pick a scenario, post with your character and roll for the scene. Or just pick. That's cool too.

For the setting:

1) CASTLE. Throne rooms, private chambers, long hallways.
2) TAVERN. Rough-hewn tables, rough-hewn clientele.
3) DUNGEONS. Iron bars, rusty chains, and terrible food.
4) JOUST. The knights of the realm are battling.
5) FIELDS. It's a hard, long day working to grow food.
6) MARKET. There's a well, there are some craftsmen selling things. It's a medieval mall.

And once you've decided the setting, decide your role:

1) ROYALTY. You are a King, Queen, Prince, Princess or close relative.
2) KNIGHT. You are a warrior of the realm.
3) WITCH/WIZARD. Official court magician? Crazy old lady with a lot of herbs? You decide.
4) PEASANT. Yeah, your life sucks.
5) CRAFTSMAN. Blacksmith, woodworker. Apprentice or master is up to you.
6) SERVANT. Your life is utterly devoted to the one you serve.
BONUS: 7) TIME TRAVELER. ???

[He stands.]

Spells always have loopholes. Can't see how I can fix it while we're here, can I?

[polarization]

You don't even know me.

[fadedchampion]

No, you're right. Hello, serah, my name is Hawke. What's yours?

[polarization]

Names are only as strong as the fame they carry.

[ Read: Hawke has no idea what kind of person he is. ]

[fadedchampion]

Only until they breed familiarity.

[Sitting back down again.]

Help me out here, serah; breed a little familiarity.

[polarization]

I... dunno what to tell you.

[fadedchampion]

Your name will do for a start.

[polarization]

Sefton.

[ Hopefully, his name's infamy hasn't spread this far yet... ]

[fadedchampion]

See, that's wasn't so hard, was it? Myself, I enjoy good, hard mead and have a talent for frustrating uppity nobles. And you?

[polarization]

... Lately I've taken an interest in card games.

[fadedchampion]

Oh? What sorts?

[polarization]

The profitable sorts.

[fadedchampion]

Maybe I'll get you to pay by teaching me your tactics.

[polarization]

Pay? I've actual money for that.

[fadedchampion]

[He waves a hand.]

Who needs money when they're a member of the court?

[Besides, with card-tricks he can hustle coin out of the foolish young noble lords.]

[polarization]

Same guy who needs illegal activities?

[fadedchampion]

Playing card games isn't illegal.

[But hustling is. Details.]

[polarization]

Playing card games for money's questionable, at the least.

[fadedchampion]

We won't be playing money. You'll be teaching me!

... And if we run into the other part, we just won't mention it.

[polarization]

[ Well... there are plenty of other, worse things he could have asked for from a master alchemist. ]

Shall we find a seat?

[fadedchampion]

You mean we don't already have one?

[polarization]

Sitting at a bar isn't the same as sitting at a table... 'specially where card games are concerned.

[fadedchampion]

Well, you are the expert ...

[He stands, glances around, spies an empty table and then sweeps his hand grandly toward it.]

Mentors first.
