- Background Info - (c) Generated using Inkarnate (Open in new tab for large image) ~~~~~~ Dhirwa Kingdom This is an extremely old and powerful kingdom. It has no true rivals anymore, though it has just barely recovered from a terribly difficult victory after a 200 year war with another kingdom. It is quite the progressive kingdom, with women and men being equals, and allowing everybody to love whomever they wish. However, it still stands that the queen or king is expected to take a partner of the opposite sex so that they can produce natural children to take the throne. There are few uprisings, as most are quite happy, at least in the last years since the war ended. The previous royal family was overthrown 80 years ago and the Eroses are relatively new. . The Capital Where the royals and 50% of the population reside. The very first Dhirwaians all settled in the capital 300 years ago and branched out from there. The capital is a very cheery place, constantly decorated for some celebration or other. Constant dancing, music, and socializing fills the streets. The palace stands proudly above all the other buildings, and you can see it from any location within the city. The culture is similar to that of Middle Eastern and Southern Asian countries, but has its own personal touch. Many buildings are designed to be open and airy, with huge glass less windows to allow the warm breezes of the region to flow through. . Ghaba Sector The Ghaba forest is incredibly thick. It is rumored half the creatures that preside within it have yet to be discovered, or that the Ghaban people merely haven't shared all their discoveries. These people are deemed "savages" by many. They don't have many high ranking members of nobility among their ranks. When one visits this sector, they might be surprised to find fences of giant teeth and claws surrounding farms and villages. These are products of dragons, who were hunted to extinction years ago, at least according to the Ghaban people. They are rather reclusive towards the rest of the kingdom, though they are warm and welcoming hosts to visitors. . Ahwar Sector A marshy area that lies between Ghaba and Jamila. It connects the low-lying beach to the lush forests. This isn't an ideal place to live for many, and it has a rather sparse population. Buildings are often build on stilts due to constant flooding and storms, as this region is actually at a lower altitude than the beach itself. It is a rather humid climate, and most who live here dress in less than would be considered appropriate everywhere except Alsham. Though their fashion is also often copied, as it is quite attractive. . Jamila Sector This sector is both admired and looked down upon by most others. This is nearly the richest sector, second only to the capital itself. The people here are considered lazy, though they are beautiful to match their surroundings. Lovely beach side villas cover the coastline in this sector, and a large portion of the kingdom's celebrities and nobles live here. Most that preside here are well tanned due to a mix of climate and genetics. They often have natural dreadlocks, which you'll hear some whisper is because they're too lazy to even wash their hair despite their vanity. They are well groomed, however, and, upon seeing a natural born Jamilan for the first time, many are shocked at their beauty. . Eushb Sector These are the wide expanse of grassland between the snow and the desert. Those who live here live in a similar fashion to Native Americans, bringing what they have with them as they wander the plains to hunt. They are masterful horsemen and well adapted to their way of life. Settling in one place for long is no easy task for the Eushbean people, and even their higher ranked members often only visit the capital for important communications. . Albard Sector This is a more recently developed sector, originally being a mere military outpost. However, since women have been allowed to join the military in the past 100 years or so, families have begun settling it like a village. It is snowy and cold with thick forests and medium sized mountains. All who live here are military personnel or those closely related. If you aren't a soldier or closely related to one, there is no place here for you, as it still merely operates as a location for such operations. . Alsham Sector The desert sector of Dhirwa. It has very sparse vegetation, though the culture almost makes up for it. Those who visit Alsham find that, despite the traditional values and nearly unbearable climate, the culture makes the stay worth while. Many here appreciate gold and silver, as said tones compliment their dark skin. Sparkling metal dust is commonly adorned by the wealthy, and the shinier you are with your clothing and accessories, the wealthier and more pronounced. Music and dancing quite often fill the streets at night when the heat subsides slightly. Due to isolation from the rest of Dhirwa, these people are out of touch and not as progressive, with men having more positions of power, and being queer is considered an infraction. Though many of the younger members in this kingdom have caught on to the progression, old fashioned values still stand overall. . Nadhir Mountain The thing responsible from separating Alsham from the rest of the kingdom. It hasn't been fully explored, and one must go around it in order to go back and forth between Alsham and the other sectors. It stands at 10,000 feet tall, constantly having a touch of snow on its peak. However, it isn't heavily snowed on except during late fall through early spring. It is rumored dragons dwell in caves on the upper cliffs that have yet to be explored. . Eutla The royal family's vacation home. A place they can go to unwind or go to hide when they are in possible danger. It is surrounded by a decently thick forest and is just a few miles off the coast of Jamila Bay for leisurely beach time. Always guarded to keep people from discovering it, though the guard is increased significantly when the royals are staying at it. Thus far, only the royal family and very close friends of the family know the location. Only the most trusted and senior guards are allowed to know of it. |

- Roles/ Characters - ~~~~~~ Maharaja: Kyros Eros - Meian (pg2) . Ranee/ Raja: TBD in RP . Princes: (0/1) . Princesses (0/2) . Royal Consort: TBD in RP . Harem (FULL): Briar Solanine Tinuviel - Spellbound (Pg2) Taia Slona Antiwain - FrostyK (Pg2) Vito Gale Ebrahimi - Honeybrook (Pg2) Grace Mazikeen Grove - Pastry Lord (Pg3) Reserved for Akira Fire Reserved for DontAskQuestions . Nobles of the High Court (2/8): Res by Meian Res by Overthink . Royal Guards: Catcher Runagate - Killigen (pg3) Res for Overthink . Manservants: Res for Overthink . Handmaidens: Res for Meian . ~~~~ - Roles Explained - Maharaja: The ruler of the kingdom. Has been a king so far, though being male isn't a requirement. . Raja/ Ranee: The queen or king that is subordinate to the Maharaja, though very nearly equal. This person is married to the Maharaja and most likely started out as a simple consort. A consort might exist along with the Raja/ Ranee, though they are usually kept in separate wings for obvious reasons. . Princes/Princesses: These are the siblings of the Maharaja. They rank above everyone except the reigning Maharaja and his spouse. Relationships with each other may vary. They can act as nobility, but pretty much exist to look pretty and flex that the kingdom is wealthy enough to support royals that do nothing all day. . Royal Consort: An individual the Maharaja generally gives more freedoms than those in the harem as far as wandering the castle and socializing with the nobles. The royal consort exists for the same reasons as those in the harem, except this individual is often closer to the Maharaja and an obvious favorite. Ranked below the nobles and just above the members of the harem. . Harem: These individuals exist for the sole purpose of pleasuring and romancing the Maharaja. They may work their way up to a position of royal consort and become ranee/raja from there. Ranked below nobles and the consort, though they are highly ranked overall. . Nobles of the High Court: Basically those who give the Maharaja advice in how to rule the kingdom and assistance in accomplishing his duties. Everything they do must be approved by the Maharaja, and they are ranked just below the Raja/ Ranee, above the consort and members of the harem. . Royal Guards: Could be anything from a private to a general to a personal guard of the Maharaja. These are just the general military of the kingdom. One or two is often seen guarding a high ranked member of the court, such as a noble or the royals (the more playable role is a personal guard). However, the majority are stationed around the kingdom in areas they are needed. . Handmaiden/ Manservant: A personal servant to a princess, prince, noble, the Raja, Maharaja, etc. They are often quite close to their charge, with a friendly relationship. It is common that royals and nobles keep their same handmaiden/manservant throughout their lives unless something gets between them such as the servant starting a family or the royal marrying into a different kingdom. Manservants serve men and handmaidens serve women. If this tradition is challenged, nobody will stop you. If you're comfortable that the opposite sex helps you change, you'll be madly whispered about and most likely judged but nothing more will occur. . .
**Note: all harem members were selected for a reason, whether they be related to high ranked military, nobility, a childhood friend of Kyros', simply attractive, etc. (be creative :3) Try to make the reason they were chosen obvious in the form. Kyros is also bi, so whichever gender is acceptable (just gonna put this here for now - harem's wing floorplan) all credits to me all rooms are decorated differently, as each was designed with the consort's culture and even personal preferences in mind. Each room is very open with many windows and a large balcony, fitting the common Dhirwaian theme. Each room contains a bathroom, once again, each designed differently to suit the consort. |
