Help[Games] Britt's Rival Empires Congrats Round One (Sign-Ups still welcome!)
Forgot to say ages were required in the sign-up. If you didn't put ages with your sign-up, please add them now.
This round one year has passed and your couple has had their first child/ren together. You may choose gender and multiples up to triplets are allowed. Please age your couple one year. If I left out people in your family (if you listed siblings/family living with you/etc) just include them in the round and I'll add them to my own list. Look for your family under the empire they live in.
Prompt: The race is on! A Krianan explorer has discovered an archipeligo of islands rich in spices and valuable oils, and the race is on between Kriana and their traditional rival, Ardelus, to colonize and gain control of as many islands as possible. Both already have colonies all over the world, but both are hungry for more land and influence. How has this latest race for riches affected your family?

Rival Empires Congrats
I decided to try something a little different for my new congrats. There will be two empires, complete with enough far-flung colonies and foreign diplomats to satisfy the most diverse naming tastes. These two empires will be rivals, sometimes friendly and sometimes not (think France and England during). There will be two royal couples, and the first people to claim them will get them (I won’t claim one unless no one else does, as that is unfair). At the beginning of each round I will post a VERY brief prompt, something like a treaty is being talked of or war has broken out or a new colony has been gained, and in your story you can tell how this has affected your family. Thus stories are greatly encouraged, but not required. In your post make it clear which empire you are part of. The first person posting as a native of somewhere sets the general naming language for that place (though you can branch out a little; i.e. Katarina or Marius in a mainly-English empire). The first to be from a colony may name it, and others may choose to be from that colony as well. I STRONGLY SUGGEST you read all other signups before you choose your homeland or category. All but poor commoners, nobles, and royal families may be foreign-born. Any noble or commoner may be in the military. The categories you may choose from are:
Noble family, Ardelusian or Krianan. Ladies-in-waiting, knights, family of the rulers, and such will be in this category.
Foreign diplomatic family, from anywhere, not only one of the two empires or colonies.
Influential common family, i.e. politician or philosopher.
Well-to-do common family, i.e. a merchant or prosperous farmer.
Poor common family, i.e. peasant or beggar or poor craftsman
Colonial family, anything from former nobility to the poorest commoner. Can use any language you want.
Palace staff family, anything from personal secretaries and stewards to kitchen maids and gardners.
Think Tudor/Elizabethan era for the feel of this game. Not necessarily English, just a mid-1500s to early-1600s type of world. Use this to inspire the names you choose, wherever they are from. I would suggest starting European for at least one empire and then branching out to more exotic places for the colonies, though this is not at all necessary. Let’s see how this works. Any type of couple goes, even adulterous, same-sex, or polyamorous. These can be an open secret (i.e. everyone knows but no one openly confronts) or totally secret, but a spouse must be implemented at some point fairly early in the game, if only as a cover.
Hope I’ve explained everything well enough that this works. Middle names and last names required, with royalty having at least two middle names. Any questions, feel free to ask. So, without further ado…
