A knight to Remember
[Mult]

I'm a big fan of all of Jude Deveraux's works, and I really really want to put together a small game with just 8 players based on Her Velvet Montgomery series.  This series revolves around one family, four Montgomery brothers living in the 16th Century.  Men who are  rich, powerful, nobles, envied by all; men who hold strong values and even stronger senses of duty.  This series is about these men, and the four, strong, capable woman, who are the only ones that can compliment them well.

I'm not suggesting that this game follow the plot completely, I just want to take the characters, and the overall situation for each pair, and let it play out as the writers feel it should.  The game will have separate threads, each one focusing on a specific pair.  And than there will be one large thread(The Montgomery home) where all would/could interact together when it's necessary/opportune.  Below is the character list, and the plots for each couple.    Other than the main plots, anything else can be changed, so you don't need to have read the books, and you definitely do no need to follow them.

The Characters:

Judith Revedoune : Played by
Gavin Montgomery: : Played by
Bronwyn MacArran : Played by
Stephen Montgomery : Played by
Alyx Blackelt : undisclosedtoyou
Raine Montgomery : Played by
Elizabeth Chatworth : Played by
Miles Montgomery : Played by

The separate stories are:

Velvet Promise
Open

QuoteAll of England rejoiced on her wedding day. But Judith vowed that her husband would get only what he took from her!

At the flower-bedecked altar, the first touch of their hands ignited an all-consuming passion. Gavin Montgomery looked deep into her golden eyes and burned with desire for her...but his heart had been pledged to another.

Humiliated and alone in a strange castle, Judith resolved to hate this husband who took her body, but rejected her love...never admitting her fear of losing him.

But destiny held another fate for Judith...a fate that would keep at last...The Velvet Promise.


Highland Velvet
Open

QuoteBronwyn MacArran was a proud Scot. Stephen Montgomery was one of the hated English.

He came to Scotland as a conqueror, saw her beauty and was vanquished. But still she would abhor him.

She owned a temper hot enough to forge the armors of battle or inflame a valiant soldier's passion. Yet still she would resist him.

She became his reason to live, his reason to love. And still she would deny him.

But while clan fought clan, while brother took up sword against brother, and the highlands ran with blood -- their destiny was made...and this mighty warrior pledged himself to his woman's pride, her honor and her name -- and made of their love a torch to burn through the ages!


Velvet Song
Needs male part to be filled

QuoteWith her father murdered, her home burned, lovely Alyx Blackelt fled to the woods -- and sanctuary in the camp of Raine Montgomery, a nobleman outlawed by the king's edict. There she hid her beauty in the guise of a boy, and her sorrow in her work as Montgomery's squire.

But how long could such loveliness as hers be hidden? How long could such a gallant man's desires be blind? And how soon -- even as a blood feud raged between the Montgomerys and the Chatworths, as angry swords clattered in the name of family honor -- one woman's love would make all the difference...one woman's love would inflame a hero's passion, touch a king's pity, and raise a song of praise in every English heart.


Velvet Angel
Open

QuoteShe came to him as a precious gift, a naked angel rolled in a rug. Once he gazed into her green eyes, saw her tangle of honey blonde hair, he was undone with passion.

Elizabeth would never surrender. He was a hated Montgomery -- she was a Chatworth -- and the blood war between their families raged on, a wildfire of rape, murder, and betrayal.

Elizabeth vowed to fight the handsome lord, to resist the burning desire in his eyes -- no matter how great the temptation.

So you can't be custome characters?

Yups you can, the only thing's that can't be changed is names and general circumstances.  So your character can be anyway you like.
