I have had this story for a few days brewing in my mind. It should be a simple and fun romp with some comedy and action.
My character is a poor peasant who has grown up in the streets. A thief, a rogue or whatever you want to call it. She has survived, sometimes by the skin of her teeth and then only by luck and skill.
She is traveling cross country one day in her countries kingdom, on her way to see the engagement ceremonies of the Crown Prince. She figures it will be a great opportunity to lift some purses or pick some pockets.
She comes upon something very frightening. The carriage carrying the princess from another Kingdom, who is due to wed the Crown Prince, has met with a terrible tragedy. A landslide has buried the carriage. All are killed, driver, footman, guards and horses. MC has no idea who it is at first, but she has taken advantage of the accident to fill her pockets. She even went so far as to steal the Princess' traveling clothes and her bags. Far better clothing than the poor thief has ever seen.
Onto this scene comes your character. A knight of the Realm who is charged with finding the over due carriage. He sees the woman and assumes she is the Princess. Far be it for my little rogue not to see the opportunity here. She decides to be the Princess and marry the Crown Prince. One day she will be Queen. Dazzling ideas pile up and she sets her plan in motion.
Does this sound like a fun rp? Will YC figure out MC is a pretender who grew up in the streets? Will he ruin her plans or let her reap the rewards or the curse? You could also play the Crown Prince. Maybe the Prince is not the most Charming, he can be a spoiled brat who will treat her poorly and insist he wants to marry someone of his own choice.
I am willing to play more than one character as well. The Queen and maybe even a nobleman's daughter who wanted to marry the Crown Prince herself. I see this as a madcap mix of romance and comedy. Or it could be serious as well, more like GOT.
