Camera, lights, ACTION -

Okay, maybe not quite like tha -



...oh... kay. So, there's the Versailles curse coming up this weekend, and of course that meaaaaaaaans: drama. Costumes. And exceedingly pink pastries (among other things).

So just comment with whatever plans you have for your characters: will they be part of the grand aristocracy, the working staff, revolutionaries, mere courtiers working their way through ranks, ambassadors? What are their plots and plans, and more importantly, whom else can you drag into it? Put down if your character needs some help (a lady might need a personal attendant, for instance, a palace guard commander might require his subordinates, etc) as well!

Just have fun with it, hur hur.

Oh, and something to keep in mind for this Sunday at 20:00 / 8 p.m. EST:

A GREAT BALL @ THE VERSAILLES PALACE

THE WORLD'S FINEST NOBILITY IN ATTENDANCE

CITIZENS CORDIALLY INVITED

Okay, my knowledge of Versailles is pretty much limited to a really old French film that I cannot even recall the titles of at the moment... but I'm planning to study up so I can do something interesting with this.

I really like the idea of Neil as the son of an aristocrat, but kind of... the child the family doesn't want anyone to know about, because he is awkward and has issues, and everyone would just as well have him hold his tongue and mostly stay out of everyone's way (and out of sight if possible) because otherwise he will surely embarrass everyone.

Anyway, like I said, gonna have to do some reading and stuff to kind of flesh this out but... that's the basic idea. I totally encourage nobles to shun him and stuff. And servants may find him being friendly in a socially inappropriate and unacceptable way, because they're probably the only ones who aren't intimidating or likely to tell him he needs to not be the way that he is.
