Cillinas - The City of Riches

stone wall. It's gold and silver mines are the cause of it's vast richness, and therefore fortune seekers miners are the most drawn to it in hopes of striking rich. Slaves are also a common for Traders to sell. The roads and mansions in the Noble and Royal District are themselves made with gold, the massive architecture repeatedly stunning visitors to the city. The Middle Class District is not so awe-inspiring. It's plain houses and ordinary working people going about their laborious daily work are beneath the notice of anyone with status, but this district is the temporary home for wealthy visitors with no noble status. The Poor District is where people who can't even buy a proper home live. It is rampant with crime and beggars. Next to the mines is a lush green piece of land reserved for farming and growing crops. The Market District is the center of all trade, as well jobs and leisurely opportunities. Outside the gates of the city, which is the only way in or out of the city. Many who cannot afford to pay the entrance fee set up camp and wait to be allowed into the city, hoping a passing noble will take notice of them and pay their way if there have something of interest, be it a rare item or something equally valuable. This place is a source of much trade as foreigners flock to the city, and Traders hawk their wares to travelers without having to pay to get into the city.

After being king for twenty-five years, King Jaquo Florense died of an illness, and his firstborn has taken the throne. Some wonder if it was really an illness or if he was poisoned by his heir or someone else.

The poisoning is not going to be the main element of the RP, but more of something to think about. The main thing is the personal stories, like a slave rising escaping it's captors, a noble suffering shame from their family, a traveler coming to seek their fortune, etc. To make it fun, though, after I create the RP and get a certain number of players, I will PM the person of my choosing to be the poisoner. Said person is not allowed to say anything in their character sheet or any posts(unless it's obvious that the truth is out)that you are guilty. It will be your challenge to put subtle hints throughout your posts without giving it away. If you do not want to do it, I will pick someone else. And don't throw out guesses in the OOC forum, and don't have your character outright accuse someone until I leave a message in the OOC forum saying it's time. Your character can have suspicions, but that's it. Despite this long informational, again please don't have your character's story revolve around the poisoning. Have something else going on, like a romance or plotting revenge against someone who killed your sibling.

Feel free to come up with other cities and submit as much or as little detail as you want. Just as long as all posts take place in Cillinas. And you have complete freedom with NPCs. Do not post until I give the OK. The plot will start with my character's sister's wedding, for mingling purposes, which I will give more details about in the OOC Forum after a few characters are submitted. My character's sister or her betrothed can be played. You can also play a relation to my character.

Even if we are in the middle of the RP, feel free to submit a character and jump right in!
