“Yes. Every man should know his weaknesses so he can overcome them in the face of adversity.” Something his younger brother had told him, right before his father gave the other the family company. Despite his mixed feelings, he knew it was true. “Ah, daddy issues. Well, you’re not alone there,” Hades confessed, sighing at the thought of his family. Hades snorted at Charlie’s words, turning to give him an examining look. “He walked in on you with a man?” he repeated. “If you’re ever forced into it, I suppose just do exactly what your gut feeling is telling you NOT to do.”
Charlie nodded his head at that, small snort sounding from him. “I was barely even legal at the time, but honestly - not sure why he was so mad at me. Pretty sure I helped to secure his business deal with the man.” The male teased, even though he honestly was sure that he’d helped with that. “Do what it’s telling me not to do? Okay ---.”
short bio: while her brother had been given every freedom growing up, lilith had grown up with a much more sheltered life after her mother had nearly lost her during labor after several miscarriages had done damage to her uterus. her first few months of life was spent in a box as they did their best just to keep her alive to the next day. the lady eleanor warwick, her mother, kept her close to her side as she grew up as if fearing her daughter might disappear if she didn't keep an eye on her. lilith didn't fight it either. she was happy to spend her days alternating between lessons in everything from etiquette to history to dancing to music and social events every day of the year. at the advice of her mother, she found an interest in being involved with charities and philanthropic organizations. she follows the schedule laid out for her and wears all the proper clothes, but at night she pulls out the sketchpad from her bedside table and draws. large fantastical scenes with structures with layering intricate columns. architecture is her passion and she wants to work for a living, designing buildings every day. her mother would never approve though because it would look poorly on a lady to work and so she doesn't tell anyone.
character name: theodore "theo" warwick
character age: 26
character fc: josh bowman
lord, son of a duke
short bio: from the moment of his birth, theo could do no wrong in his parent's eyes. they would have accepted a daughter as an heir because they are modern like that and they would never admit it, but they were happy it was a son first. a strong, confident, charming boy. that's what they hoped for and that was exactly the type of person he grew up into. as a boy, his education was primarily dictated by his father. he had to be skilled in both fencing and golf as they were both sports of the elites. he became knowledgeable in cigars and whiskey from an early age as that was what was drank in the back rooms of business. it seems he has the natural skill for what it takes to be a Duke himself. still, every morning he woke up dreading what was coming. no one had ever asked him if he even wanted to follow in his father's business, but he was stuck because he didn't know what else he could do. he feels a constant lack of control over his own life. he is deeply possessive of what he considers his and while this has helped him in business, this hasn't helped him in relationships.

short bio ( you can post a longer bio later on if you wish ):
short bio ( you can post a longer bio later on if you wish ):
Emerson was the only child of Todd and Christine Bainbridge and had a lot of pressure put on her from the time she was a child. Her father wanted his only child to shine and be a burning example of how good him and his wife were as a couple and parents. To the world, they were picturesque. But behind closed doors, Christine was never interested in her husband beyond producing a heir to the throne. Her first pregnancy was her only and she didn’t care if she didn’t give him his desired heir, she was never going through it again. Christine had no motherly intuition and despised the redheaded child. Todd never liked that Emerson was not the son they had been told she was and his frustration with his wife often was taken out on the girl, his pleasure coming from her pain. Emerson learned not to complain after her grandmother slapped her mouth when she told on them as a small child. She was told what happened in their home should stay there.
No matter how cold her family was, they pampered her and she was more than spoiled. She had a good attitude about it, making sure she didn’t act spoiled or anything other than a perfect child. Emerson didn’t need to give fodder to her parents to abuse her. She entertained guests at parties, playing her violin or giving charming stories about school or something she learned. She was always considered a gifted child and her parents exploited it to make others envious of them. She was everything a socialite was supposed to be, pretty, interesting enough to be charming and non threatening when it came to male authority. During her time at Choate Rosemary, she worked hard, graduating at the top of her class and head girl, something else for her parents to brag about.
Emerson played the role of the submissive and the more passive girl very well. When everyone she knew was fighting to be an alpha, she knew it was better to find her power elsewhere. Her power was not in being loud, it was being quiet and knowing exactly what moments she needed to cry and smile politely. Emotions were something she used often to get her way when things seemed to be turning against Emerson. Being one of the younger girls in society, she was receptive to the older women and their advice. Even if it was only on a surface level and to appease them, she was the pinnacle of someone attempting to soak up all the information about how to be the perfect wife, especially considering she would be betrothed. She already had a good idea in her head how her marriage was going to go, but there was no need to expose her hand yet or ever if she could always avoid it.

character name: Malik Abassi Zabini
character age: 25
character fc: Keith Power
Malik is a king.
short bio ( you can post a longer bio later on if you wish ): There was something about Malik Abassi Zabini. it was like nothing the boy could do wrong as he was growing up. he was a dutiful son, protective big brother and everything he touched turned to gold. he had the best male figures in his life, both his namesakes active and available for advice whenever he needed it as well as his father. growing up in a supportive environment made him even more cocky than his father. he was an excellent athlete and class president all 4 years of his high school career. He entered college for business and found himself shining again. he got top grades, president of the student and captain again of the football team in college. Now he’s graduated and his father has recently died, making him King. Malik has always had the world at his fingertips. The oldest of twins, he always knew duty would fall on him. He partied hard, but worked even harder, making sure his twin toed the line enough. He slept with a lot of people, but was careful not to get too close or knock anyone up.

if your character is a royal, a servant, civilian, pirate etc: royal guard
short bio ( you can post a longer bio later on if you wish ): Born in a small village in the kingdom, Greg’s family had worked their land for generations, but that was never his forte. The middle of 9 siblings, it was no surprise when he left to join the King’s Army, then later the royal guard itself. Poised for war, he’s a skilled archer and swordsman, known around the guard for his devil-may-care attitude and penchant for getting into trouble. He rarely sees his family anymore, though he has his loyalty and would come back if needed. Greg’s goal is to command a brigade of men of his own.
short bio ( you can post a longer bio later on if you wish ): Colette is the only child of her parents, so her role is important in her fathers eyes. He did not allow her to interact with boys at all, until she came close to the age for marriage. Now she is, her father finally allows her freedom, to go to balls and other activities, as long as someone goes with her to keep a watchful eye. She wishes for more freedom, and to be able to find someone for love and not just to please her parents.

short bio ( you can post a longer bio later on if you wish ): Conner is the third some of his family, and doing so his parents do not expect much from him, except get married to some wealthy family and keep himself sober. They do not know that secretly their youngest son has close to no desire for the women they bring. He has attitude, and tends to get into trouble, but its his mischievous ways that draw people into his pranks, and what he calls the web of pleasure. Since he has many affairs with others but it never comes to light because some are female, but many are men.

setting up a royals rpg / roleplay group verse everyone is welcome - oc’s, canon characters. whatever. will be on discord and can also be here. i’m just wondering if anyone would actually be interested in joining?
Hey, I just started a new small town OC rp (with a hint of Gossip Girl) on Discord. Do you think you might be interested in it? I can send you the link to the blog and answer any questions you might have!
me and a couple of friends have made a deadly class based rpg on discord. ( basically the concept is it’s a boarding school where people go to train to be assassins ), it’s very chill and fun and if anyone would want to join it hmu because we’d love that!!
“Repeating my answer is absolutely copying. Think of it less as an evil, and more like a weakness you have,” he suggested, shrugging slightly as they finished their drinks. He waved down the bartender to order two more. “What are you weak for?” he asked, honestly intrigued. “Understandable I suppose - but what if you’re forced into making a gambling decision?”
“What am I weak for?” Not something he’d ever really been. . . asked before. Charlie wasn’t completely sure how he was supposed to answer it, honestly. “As sad as it is, my father’s approval. He’s never really - excepted me. Especially not when he caught his golden boy in bed with one of his business partners.” Charlie snorted, shrugging his shoulders. “And if I forced into it, then I guess I wouldn’t have much of a choice.”
Jasmine pouts, staring down at the hand reaching out to her. “You might not tell him that, but what if he has that cop sixth sense that can sniff down drug dealers?” Sure, she may not do high scale drug dealing, but selling drugs to college kids and middle aged suburban moms is still drug dealing. Sighing, she takes Rosalie’s hand, squeezing it for comfort. “I just wanna make a good first impression on him, y’know?”
“I know that. And I think it’s adorable that you want to make my dad like you, Jas. But just be yourself - obviously avoid the whole selling drugs topic and I know that he’ll adore you. It’s impossible for him not to.” She said, pad of her thumb caressing the back of Jasmine’s hand comfortingly.
