Rosaline Moodboard 1/? 

Duty First

[thenorthernrose]

You cannot flinch. Because if you show a single crack, we’ll see it isn’t a crack, but a chasm, and we’ll all fall in. So you must hold it all together.

 Must I do that alone?

 There is only one queen. [x]

Hounds of Mer Sereine  

Perseus (Great Pyrenees, 5) - A gift for Rosaline shortly after the birth of her first child. Known as a steadfast guardian, often exhibiting a Zen-like calm, but they can quickly spring into action and move with grace and speed to meet a threat.

Horses of Mer Sereine Stables 

Sylvanna (Mare, 7) - One of Rosaline’s wedding gifts, main horse utilized by the Northern Queen for transport both official and leisurely.

Music for your Muse

Songs that sing to your character. 

Safe and Sound - Julia Sheer 

Rosaline recieving comfort both as a child  herself and providing it for her own children in uncerntain moments.

Just close your eyes, the sun is going down You'll be alright, no one can hurt you now Come morning light, you and I'll be safe and sound Don't you dare look out your window, darling everything's on fire The war outside our door keeps raging on Hold onto this lullaby even when the musics gone, gone 

Jenny Of Oldstones - Florence + The Machine  

Rosaline is very tied to the Northlands and Mer Sereine, not all of the memories are happy ones.

High in the halls of the kings who are gone Jenny would dance with her ghosts The ones she had lost and the ones she had found And the ones who had loved her the most The ones who'd been gone for so very long She couldn't remember their names They spun her around on the damp old stones Spun away all her sorrow and pain And she never wanted to leave, never wanted to leave Never wanted to leave, never wanted to leave

Noble Blood - Tommee Profitt

Rosaline knows her duty as queen to be both vital and extremely dangerous. Every ruler rises and falls.

We fight, we fall Duty calls, it calls Say we choose But it's no choice at all Duty calls it calls Mercy, peace and justice Cherish and protect us Battle born they send us Covered in our noble blood

[thenorthernrose]

The right is not given, it is taken, it is taken by blood, by murder...The king’s divinity is a tale men tell themselves, but the right is taken. It is taken by force and it is held by force. So take the right.

The White Princess

‘The Animal in You’ Test

WOLF CHARACTERISTICS: Passionate...Decisive...Good-looking

THE WOLF PERSONALITY IS LOYAL

With an innate understanding of the value of teamwork, it’s always ready to take its place in the chain of command either as a leader or as simply a member of the pack. When a wolf decides to innovate, it makes sure that it has the backing of a capable team, for the wolf is clear-headed and strong-minded, and always willing to compromise in the interests of getting a job done.

Wolves are facially expressive and readily communicate their emotional states with body language. They work hard at developing their social relationships, although, they are quick to anger when they sense threats to the social order. When confrontations occur, they sometimes react suddenly and violently. Close companions know to avoid their biting tongue until they resume their normal gregarious behavior.

THE WOLF’S CAREER

Wolves are intensely ambitious and never shy from hard work. Socially adept, they function well in leadership and management roles as well as jobs requiring vision and strength of character. Being a natural motivator, their instinctive understanding of group dynamics serves them well in goal-oriented tasks.

As bosses, wolves demand absolute loyalty and they provide the same allegiance to their employees. Their ability to perform under pressure helps them attain the highest executive levels, and with strong communication instincts they maintain a constant stream of notes, letters, and email to coworkers. Their instinctive understanding of the chain of command makes wolves excellent soldiers or law enforcement officers.

LOVE & FRIENDSHIP

The wolf insists on fidelity from its mate, but even after its partner has sworn its devotion the wolf must battle its canine hormones that drive it to distraction.

On the positive side of the ledger, the wolf makes a gallant effort to remain faithful; satisfying its haunting need for romance through its strong platonic friendships (at least that's what we're told).

Is it love or a deep animalistic lust that is the wolf's secret hunger? The answer proves elusive even to the wolf, whose appetites for the hunt bedevil its romantic stability. When a relationship is in trouble, the wolf leaves no stone unturned in its quest to restore harmony. Unfortunately, this obsessive behavior can give the impression that its partner is simply another challenge for the wolf to conquer.
