                                                          • Log in to read, KISS ME OR KILL ME. This is the isekai romance drama that's risen in popularity since it's conception and has a tremendously large following worldwide. There is talk about possible live action adaptations, a game already exists, and so on. With so many iterations, translations, and fanbases popping up, there are plenty of people from all walks of life that are aware of the story! Well, those who read webnovels, anyway.

                                                            Now, have you ever imagined yourself reading said webnovel then somehow, through various means and methods, awake to find yourself inside said the world of KISS ME OR KILL ME? You have to do your best to survive the climate of the world with the knowledge you've retained from reading the story! Or perhaps you're from the novel's world, and dealing with the drastic changes to the story and other people's personalities taking dramatic shifts. Either way it's a promise of drama and intrigue as you figure out this new changing world.

                                                            The story of KISS ME OR KILL ME follows a saintess main character, not born of noble lineage, adopted and exploited by a smaller noble family to raise the family status. Very much a Cinderella retelling type of story with more political intrigue. There’s favored siblings, knight in shining armor, nobles and anything else that you could want in a period-drama webnovel - it’s all in the formula!

                                                            Through the course of the story, MC’s powers are realized, she is sent to the religious capital FIANA to be trained. It’s in the Holy City of Fiana that most of the cast enters the scene through various events and political movements that eventually moves everyone into one convenient place. Of course, this in itself takes several chapters to get through and adaptations in manhwa and games have began with talk of a live action or animated tv series as well - either way, it’s gained traction in a lot of people’s eyes!

                                                            Cliffhangers have readers on edge and constantly coming back, as well as moments where you’re sure something is going to happen one way - given the way these things are often written - things seem to go another way or the introduction of a new pivotal character changes the dynamic. There are some that argue that the story could have ended chapters ago, but much like popular series, sometimes they get so much traction they get a life of their own.

                                                            Right at a pivotal moment in the story where the MC is confronting one of the villainesses - the webnovel went on a small hiatus. Everything stopped, but is coincidentally when everything begins.

                                                            tab tab tab β–  β–  tab α΅€α΄΄α΄± π’•π’Šπ’Žπ’†π’π’Šπ’π’† 𝒓𝒆𝒔𝒆𝒕fbi β—žβœ§

                                                            The story thus far had everyone in the Holy City of Fiana - a neutral territory, or so it claims - in response to a prophecy that the ORACLE had announced. A shift of power and the will of the Gods would be known when they selected their avatar. So, nobles from the other countries and continents all arrived to Fiana to either hope they would be chosen or to see the prophecy in real time.

                                                            Because of this, nobles who had estates in the Holy City all took their turns hosting lavish balls for various reasons, between showing off their wealth, using it as a way to plot and scheme publicly, or even just trying to stave off boredom the way wealthy people did. Time had seemed to progress past all this, surely there are those who recall - but fate seemed to think this was the perfect time to implant some new characters or character upgrades, at this point in the story line, and starting the story over again from this point.

                                                            Not everyone who is not isekai’d should recall the time reset. There are some that may realize it later, or think of it as a dream, and some will realize what has happened but aren’t able to talk about it without sounding like they’re crazy - and some it seems like magic is stopping them from talking about what they know at all. Either way! The timeline reset is about midway into the story - so those with outside knowledge of the story can use that to their advantage, as well as those aware of the reset - but as we move forward form this point, memories of past timelines will slowly being disappearing, as well as knowledge outside of the story!

                                                            What does this mean? There is no overarching story, and anything that has happened or is canon to the story can be agreed upon in ooc plotting - but obviously things are supposed to be different and change, so think of this almost like a sandbox story - we’re all making it up as we go! Plotting is key, if you do not plot with others, it won’t work!

                                                            Be mindful how you treat and talk to others. No flaming, trolling, bullying or harassing of any kind will be tolerated. We will not put up with homophobic, transphobic, or racist remarks - all this will result in immediate removal as well as being reported and/or blocked. And please do not godmod (moving/manipulating other characters without consent).

                                                            So welcome to the melting pot that is this story. If you check the INFO POST in the apps thread, then you will see that there are many different races and cultures being represented in this fantasy world so there's a lot of options when making your characters! That being said, I prefer sticking with face claims that match the setting (ie avoid overly modern clothing on characters).

                                                            The roleplay is also very trope heavy! Why? We're fulfilling our own lil desires for comedy/angst/romance etc! So what if you're not sure what tropes you want to play or want to fill-in as the second half of a trope that's already taken? If you go into the DISCORD GROUP, there will be a trope wishlist there! And of course, if you've already joined and are looking for members to join in on your trope - you'll submit it in the discord as well. Don't worry if you're not a member yet and just want to peek in, that is totally acceptable!

                                                            That all being said, do not bully others into joining your trope - and do not let others bully you into theirs. No one should have to change their character or fulfil a trope if they're not interested! We will be respectful if you ask and someone says no - it's not the end of the world, someone else may be interested or perhaps trying a different trope. But we will not bully anyone for any reason! We love drama in character but it will not be tolerated out of it!

                                                            There's a lot of potential character roles, and I personally love taking on multiples so to start I'm going to put a limit of 3 characters per person to start but if you're posting regularly and active in ooc then you're more than welcome to take more - just DM a mod and ask! That being said, if you've got multiple characters and aren't posting, we may ask you to take away one (or multiple) to focus your time and energy on one at a time. And if you are inactive in rp and ooc for 2+ weeks with no communication to the mods, we will remove you from the rp.

                                                            tab tab tab β–  β–  tab O3. α΅€α΄΄α΄± π’†π’™π’‘π’†π’„π’•π’‚π’•π’Šπ’π’π’”fbi β—žβœ§

                                                            This is a LAZY LIT roleplay, that means I'm not going to be keeping track of your word limits, but I do ask you give everyone enough to work off of. If you can do that in like three paragraphs? Go for it, but give us something substantial! I also request that you bold and/or color your characters speech and have your character's image and name in your post - at the very least. We love fancy post graphics but it's not demanded you have one, of course. We also do require you join the group DISCORD for OOC conversations/plotting/updates/etc.

                                                            As for post consistency, I am aware we have lives and mental health prevents posts from happening, but as long as you keep me in the loop I will not enforce post dates! After a week of no posts and not letting the mods know what's up, please expect us in your DM's asking what's up!

                                                            tab >> FYI there will not be an overarching story to guide you beyond world set up and various random events to happen based off decisions characters make versus the original storyline. That being said - we're sandboxing a lot and this requires HEAVY PLOTTING with your fellow roleplayers. If you are not one to plot or even initiate plots whether public or private then I don't think this rp is for you. It has to be a group effort to work well together, and it should be a fun experience! It doesn't work if everyone isn't participating!

                                                            tab tab tab β–  β–  tab O4. α΅€α΄΄α΄± π’‹π’π’Šπ’π’Šπ’π’ˆfbi β—žβœ§

                                                            So you want to join! Great. Again, people (to start) are allowed up to three characters. There are no hard character roles - you're provided information on each country/kingdom and may choose to play a prominent or a non-prominent character from one of those settings. The only stipulation is that you need to make sure your character will make sense being in the rp and able to converse with the upper-class characters if that isn't the route you're wanting to play. More information will be given in the INFO post in the apps thread!

                                                            There are no profile codes.


                                                            What does that mean for those applying? Make a very compelling application. The application will be more indepth than traditional ones with minimal information. I am not asking you write a profile in depth for your application! I just need you to let me know how they're connected to the world and how the original timeline and the timeline reset affected them. Are they originally from the world or were they isekai'd in by truck-kun? I'll post my own apps for reference, and more information will be given in the apps thread. Best of luck to you! We look forward to seeing all the interesting characters to come from this! Also should say, if you honestly want to explore your character more and make a profile - by all means do so! Link us and we'll put it up in the discord so everyone can see. It's just not mandatory, is all!

                                                            The Aloysha Empire was once thought to be uninhabited wastes - almost all of it is harsh tundra forests with steep mountains that hide anything else that may have existed there. Only in the past ten years had countries sent exploration parties out to see if they could map (and survive) the area as predecessors had claimed it was completely uninhabitable. They were mostly correct.

                                                            The forests that surround the Aloysha Empire are magic and the magic is to protect the area from invaders, unwelcome guests and the like. It is also deceptive in how large the forest is, another magic trick that had obviously stumped mages for hundreds of years. No, the Aloysha Empire is home to the FAE REALM. As an empire, it is host to several monarchs, but the empirical family are dragons. Their magic, being the oldest fae creatures, is the strongest and so they were always tasked with protecting the realm. The only reason anyone knows about them is because they allow it.

                                                            For one reason or another, monarchs from Aloysha have arrived in Fiana, whether to witness the prophecy or they had one of their own - they are pretty guarded with their answers.

                                                            The most modern in technological advances amongst the other kingdoms and empires - with a combination of magic and technology they have made several advancements that have made them a paragon amongst the others. It has also given the country, as a whole, a rather large head. They had made agreements with the floating kingdom, LAPUTA for their wizards to be conscripted in the crowns service. For what? Wealth? Power? No, it was for Laputa itself. Though that isn’t really common knowledge, and history of Laputa itself has been more or less stripped from history books and rewritten by those in power. Anyway! It’s made the Wisterian crown quite heavy for those who sit under it, and it also paints a target on their back from others.

                                                            Besides that, the country is rich in other ways as well; the soil is fertile and yield great crops that also give them a good head on trade. The technological marvels bring visitors and those willing to spend their gold for something to take home. The scenery near the wastes that border them and Fortnoss - while treacherous due to wayward wizards - is quite beautiful to behold.

                                                            Their military might is amongst the strongest, but purely for their magic-technology, magitech. There is great talk of the military prowess of the eastern kingdoms, but there have never been any talk of war - fighting them would be madness if you did not have an army of wizards at your disposal.

                                                            To the far east across the sea, there is another wastes - as the Wisterians would call it. A vast desert that hid many oasis and twice as many tombs. Many, not from the desert kingdoms, believe that treasure also lies waiting in the desert sands, and brings the occasional explorer. Or rather, the occasional corpse. The desert is vast and harsh as any sea, and anyone who does not know it or is equipped to survive, simply do not. However, deep in the desert along a river that runs down from mountains far to their north, there lies the jewel of the desert; The Sultanates of Al-Djannei.

                                                            The sultanates are ruled by the Sultan and his vizier. There they are masters of trade. Most anything and everything from the eastern side of the world arrives in the capital. Though they are deep in the desert, their river runs to meet the ocean and is the closest and fastest means to the western side of the world. Besides being the central hub, mines in the deserts have produced plentiful gems that the rest of the world seems to covet - it allows them to barter and trade for sums that even a lowly merchant can treat themselves as kings. Unfortunately, money is not so useful if there is no food - so the sultanates are very dependent upon trade. They of course do produce other things than jewels. Livestock is kept for their meats, transport, and their hair/wool for textiles. More hearty plants will grow in the meager oasis that exist in the desert, but not enough to sustain the great peoples of the sultanates.

                                                            They are more peaceful than not - often outsourcing their muscle with mercenaries from overseas or the north. Generally their only interest lies in trade, but trade of knowledge with the prophecy looming over the holy city in the sea, has the sultan curious.

                                                            East of the great desert is the titan of the east, the Shu Hong empire. They have an immense trade in silks and teas that, similarly to Al-Djannei, have given them a great deal of wealth from western countries. They are seen as even more peaceful, but that was after hundreds of years of civil wars and raiding nearby countries before they all assimilated.

                                                            The Shu Hong people are one steeped deeply in tradition, and very rarely stem away from those traditions. That was until the current emperor, early in his reign, had been swayed by western missionaries to adopt their faith. It has been the official religion for the past fifty years, but not the most popular religion. Nobles, whether they truly practice the religion of Fiana or not, many felt compelled to go to the Holy City for the prophecy announcement. Or at least, due to the social and political climate surrounding the emperor, it was expected that at least some go.

                                                            They would have the longest journey, but with a sea border, going by ship or traveling the merchant roads through the desert to board at Al-Djannei, many went if only for the journey.

                                                            Laputa as they know today is a floating fortress in the sky, home to the magic academy where they train magic users that are then conscripted into the Wisterian crown’s service for a minimum of two years before they’re able to leave. Most do not, as the Wisterian royalty are very generous with their mages. Of course, Laputa does allow mages from other countries to train there, they still must serve the Wisterian crown for a minimum of two years. Since they are not in a time of war (as of only a few months ago), wizards in the service are more bodyguards or toys to show off to other nobles.

                                                            However, the history of Laputa is a bit darker. For many years, hundreds of years, Laputa was a floating kingdom in the sky. She swayed over all the lands and hid in the clouds - in the past hundred or so years, the details being scrubbed from most public records, Wisteria infiltrated and liberated the Laputa peoples from their home. There’s rumors that there is a Laputa royal still alive somewhere but no one knows or it’s dismissed as legend.

                                                            The Laputa 'court' consists of merely wizards of various ranks. They can be any ethnicity though non-human mages are rare and would unlikely attempt to visit a more-or-less Wisterian military base. The mages of Laputa can be summoned to Fiana and those not may go simply to see what is going on - they have a good deal of free-roam capability if their rank is high enough (and if not they can always sneak out).

                                                            The Holy City in the Sea, home to the Temple of Fianelle. It is the name of the deity that they believe created the world and brought magic to people. Magic is highly tied into the religion but only a certain type of magic. They refer to their mages as saints and saintesses, thought to be blessed by Fianelle themselves. Those who are found to have the MARK OF THE SAINT are often taken from their homes at a young age (if found) and begin living in the temple to hone their magic and strengthen the church.

                                                            Fiana is truly a rather large archipelago in the sea, a near midway point between the Western Continent and the East. It is warm all year round, and as much as magic is a part of the religion, so is water. Many of their temples and cities are partially flooded leaving a very dream-like visage to those who visit. Many nobles and royals have estates on the archipelago, as their social season is often spent in the Holy City. Besides the temple it is a bustling floating city, pleasure barges sway in the waves and the atmosphere is almost always cheerful. The religion is not quite so stiff that it does not allow for people to show their thankfulness to the goddess in alternative ways, so to speak.

                                                            Above all else, as a neutral territory, nobles and royals of any nation and race can find peace in the Holy City, so long as they are respectful and with a healthy fear of the church.

                                                            A kingdom thought to be swallowed by the Mori forest - or at least that’s what some call it. Wisteria seem to only call it a magic forest, but Fornfoss and Palisade call it by name. There is a fear and respect for the forest that swallows the land. Or at least, mostly swallows the land. Fornfoss had somehow survived the forest’s advances. No, they cannot rightly traverse the forest, but they can fly over it. More so out of necessity, Fornfoss was the first kingdom to invent air travel. They are rudimentary airships, but no one else has them. Not that many absolutely need them, seeing as Wisteria has a whole floating kingdom. They use magic to get up there, but no one else has domination of the sky like Fornfoss. So there.

                                                            Besides that, there is a river that flows through the forest and to the sea, but it requires riding into Wisterian waters as Fornfoss does not have a port, and the river that connects to Palisade’s port does not, for some reason, allow for large ships. Or any ship that they had tried to set out ended up going nowhere fast.

                                                            There is not great necessity for this nature claimed kingdom to participate in the oracle’s prophecy, it is not their main religion - sticking to the old gods of the earth - but out of curiosity, perhaps.

                                                            Were it not for the encroaching magical forest the coastal region of Artiva would share a border with Fornfoss; and the political divide between these once close kingdoms has only grown with their geographic separation. An unfortunate misunderstanding occurred approximately a decade ago that led to high tensions and brought the two to the brink of war. However, time has finally allowed tempers to cool and there is an effort being made on Artiva’s part to heal the relations and bring the two kingdoms back together if possible.

                                                            The coastal region of Artiva is kept small on one by the same encroaching magical forest that threatens their former ally, and by the ocean on the other. Indeed, to call it a β€˜kingdom’ at all might seem exceedingly generous to those from far larger continents. Their continued survival is dependent upon the support of the Holy City itself but also revenue from travelers back and forth between the continent and the waters.

                                                            Largest of the islands and the β€œcapital”, POLYKARPOS is home to the temples and political buildings for world leaders to meet at, acting as neutral grounds. The island, all the islands, is tropic - lush greenery coats the vast landscapes of the archipelago. Being the largest, POLYKARPOS has the most eco-diversity. Its architecture is fashioned after the Ancients; large open air temples to allow the breeze and birds to fly through and connect the people with the nature the goddess had gifted them. There are other more modern buildings as well, nobles buying or renting property on the island fashion their homes by their home culture and a mix of ancients - to keep to codes set by the church. Many main roads consist of canals, fed from the fresh water lake in the center of the island - and where the main temple is, on an island in the very center. Besides bought properties and temples, the only other types of businesses prevalent on POLYKARPOS are bath houses and luxury based establishments. Provisions are often brought by boat and then gondola up through the island from the other, smaller islands - like EIRENAIOS and GISILA, known for their hunting and farming, respectively.

                                                            Nicknamed the Flower Island, LUXANTHIOS is known for the pink stone used in its buildings and roadways and the obscene amount of flowers that grow naturally and are cultivated on the island. Lore is that the third great saintess, LUXIA, used her powers to grow the magical flowers in honor of the goddess. The tea made from the flowers is said to have healing properties and are renowned for their beauty and fragrance as well. They only grow on LUXANTHIOS, making them a rare sight - so much so that their invasive nature, vines growing on most everything, is seen as a gift rather than a hindrance. The famous pink houses are bought or rented to nobles more cheaply than those on Polykarpos in the cloud district or central thoroughfare, given their distance from the town proper. This neighborhood is much quieter, though during the day is a popular destination for courting couples to visit. To accommodate LUXANTHIOS has the most eateries, cafes, gardens and such. The homes here are also a tad larger, further apart from the others and tend to tend more balls here. The Flower Palace is the most popular destination for its luxurious gardens and immense ballrooms. The only other attraction not particularly visited often is the Shrine to the Oracle. Not a saint or saintess but someone gifted visions from the goddess herself, playing an integral part of Fianism. The oracle resides here with their attendants - but their gardens are open to all, as they are the most private.

                                                            The last of the main three island, ZIOLAS, has the least amount of buildings and cultivation. The habitat similar to that as if it were not inhabited save for a few areas. This has lead to forests and wildlife running healthily in cohabitation with people. Some of the smaller animals, such as deer, rabbits, and some wild pig, tend to approach people for food and attention quite often. It isn’t discouraged, as there are always monks that live on the islands - if not other patrons to visit. The loudest sounds on ZIOLAS are the plethora of waterfalls that cascade the mountainous terrain of the island. The biggest structure would be the water palace, fashioned mostly after the Shu Hong style, the first floor is flooded slightly - though care is taken to the foundation of any potential structural issues. The water palace usually used as a tea house for nobles who do not want to mingle with others. Quiet politics and some ceremonies are held here, but rarely - if ever - anything more rambunctious like a ball. The Fian’an Archaenum, one of the largest libraries of the world. There is a small donation the church wants before given membership to the Archaenum, but after you have unlimited access. Those without memberships may sit in the library parlor - it also serves food and has rooms for visiting scholars who wish to study. It’s most famous attraction would be the Glass Garden. Comprised both in glass green houses and outside, it’s named for the matching glass lanterns artisans craft to look like tiny palaces that float in the rivers and ponds and in trees and trellises of ZIOLAS. Think of it as a large botanical garden and forest, littered with delicate glass works of art to illuminate the way.
