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. ???

[Eventually, the dog does notice they're being watched and barks happily. Garrett jumps in surprise, light and flames spilling out over his hand from the ball he was trying to push it into as he lets it dispel and tries to hide it behind his body.

[His jump knocks the armour and makes it rattle violently; he snatches up his rag and makes like he was polishing before he got startled, straightening the greaves and glancing over his shoulder. All in all it's actually pretty smooth a cover--as long as his stalker wasn't already expecting something else, of course.]

Awareness of your surroundings. [Charles steps closer.] If you're going to practice magic, you might want to make sure you're alone first.

[fadedchampion]

Who, me? Magic?

[Have a wide-eyed, innocent look.]

Forgive me, Ser Charles, I've no idea what you mean.

[mutantlifeguard]

[Charles tilts his head, like, really? C'mon.]

[fadedchampion]

[Hey, rule of lying: don't change lies just because it seems like they've caught you.]

Everyone knows magic is the realm of mages, not servants, Ser Charles.

[In a tone that says 'well obviously you ought to know that', because he can't help but sass. It's why he has so many whip-marks on his back.]

[mutantlifeguard]

[A shrug.] Ability is ability.

[fadedchampion]

Servants don't have that kind of ability, Ser.

[Said in a self-deprecating tone of 'because they're servants, duh'.]

[mutantlifeguard]

This one does.

[fadedchampion]

Oh, don't be so hard on yourself, Ser. Court magicians are practically nobility.
