The Nile river is a beautiful, but deadly body of water. The crocodiles lurk under the surface, waiting to snap at your leg. The scorpians stay hidden in the sand, waiting to sting your calf. The jackals darting out and nipping at your muleâs feet. However deadly, it remains mysteriously beautiful. Magical happenings are always taking place alongside itâs banks. The Godâs favor this river, using it to appear before their servants. Horus, the God of Pharoahs, frequents the river more than the rest.
The city of Cairo is a beautiful one indeed. The marketplace is always bustling with friendly faces and fresh food. Slaves are always working, proud to serve their Pharoah. Children run about the streets, unafraid of being harmed. Some refer to Amenhotepâs kingdom as perfect. Heâs a fair, caring leader; one that takes care of his people, and at the same time strikes fear into the hearts of his enemies.
Amenhotep tries his hardest to be the best possible Pharoah; whether itâs the duties of a King, Husband, or Friend, he gives everything he has to the relationship. Unfortunately, the same cannot be said for the rest. Some starve for the life of their Pharoah, coveting his entire existence. This putâs Amenhotep and his Queen, Ausetâs, in a constant state of danger.
Queen Auset is incapable of giving her husband any children, so Amenhotep is forced to hand choose a successor from his royal cabinet. It seems like it would be an easy enough task, but when choosing a person to lead the people of Cairo you must be careful and wise about your decision.
The object of this game is to manipulate your way into the Pharoahâs heart, convincing him to name you as his successor. I will be playing the Gods, including Geb, using them to answer your characterâs prayer, grant them certain temporary powers, or to just give advice. I will also be playing the public/army when mass congregation or performance is needed. The country of Sudan will be played by me as well, so as I can be truly fair, and still involved in the Rp. And just fyi, Geb wonât be winning, so donât get frustrated. So basically, I control everything but you and yours. Which is why it will be important for you to create a âcrewâ for yourself, people to help you gain what you need, watch your back, and sneak around for you.

Everyone is dressed in their finest, the music is loud, the incense are strong, the entertainment joyus.

-Keep OCC for OCC.
-All posts are to be at least one to two paragraphs; a healthy paragraph is anywhere from six to eight sentences.
-Remember, you canât buy something for the man who has everything. Youâll have to come up with other ways of getting the Pharoah to trust you, probably wouldnât hurt if the Queen favored you as well.
