Long ago, there were two kingdoms. They were Syra and Keros. Both kingdoms were at war with each other, for many disagreements over the years. Both kings had four children each. The king of Syra, had four, handsome, strong sons, while the king of Keros had four, lovely, intelligent daughters. But one day, the two kingdoms made a treaty that was to bring Syra and Keros together. The eldest daughter of Keros was to give her hand in marriage to the eldest son of Syra. They had never met before, and had no idea what eachother looked like, but if all went well, the younger siblings of the two would then be wed together. The fate of everyone in both kingdoms relies on the marriage going well. The princesses have been sent to Syra under heavy guard for a few weeks, and if everything goes well, they will return to Keros where there will be a wedding. Some members of the familes support this marriage, while others will do anything to stop it. There are some assassins out after the princesses, and vice-versa for when the Princes come to Keros, but the servants seem to know just about everything going on.
Rules. Keep it PG13. Romance is encouraged and somewhat nessecary for this guild, but please keep rules and Gaia TOS in mind! PLEASE! PM me all profiles. No neko, demon, vampire, etc. Your character can be strong, BUT THEY ARE ONLY HUMAN! NO GODMODDING!!! No two siblings the same age unless they are twins, so everyone has to have at least a year difference. Please use third person, and write like it is a story. Don't write *this* for actions.

The setting is like what everything in the lord of the rings looks like. So Keros looks like the elf cities, it’s hidden away in forest. Syra is more of a walled city out in the open of a great plain.

Princes of Syra
Gaia name: Blaze1616 Name: Roran Kingdom/role in kingdom: Syra/ Eldest Prince Age: 22
Personality: He's kind and gentle to his people. He is adored by his people and usually spends time out on the streets and in the markets. He has never actually loved someone, and isn't sure if he will find love in this princess that he is soon to meet. He understands what their marriage will mean, and he is ready for peace. He has gotten sick and tired of all the death, widows, and orphans this war has left behind. He is sickened by the idea of this planned wedding, he believes that people should find love on their own. But if it will stop this war, he has promised himself to go through with it. He usually protects his younger brothers in everything they do. Bullies at school, some punks who are against the wedding, anyone who tries to harm them, he usually deals with. Because of his royalty, he was taught to dance. He is decently skilled, and enjoys the art of dancing. He also loves to sing, and was told he has a great voice. He isn't sure if his people tell him this to please him, or if it is the truth. When he finds that something his father, or anyone in the royalty line of Syra, is wrong to his own beliefs, he stands up for what he believes in. He is usually optimistic, but he has been found to be pesimistic at times. He has never been able to tell when he is what, but he doesn't care either.
Weapons: Roran is very skilled with his sword and bow. He was taught how to use a lance for when fighting from horseback, but he prefers his sword. He also has very precise aim, and has hit an apple from a decoy's head many times before, from various distances.
Apperance: Roran (picture would stretch page)
Other: Roran is often seen at battle feilds, giving the dieing some company. He doesn't care who is dieing, he just knows that they crave company in their last moments, so he give it to them. When confronted in battle, he usually avoids injuring anyone. But when someone, or something he cares for is in danger, he is a fierce warrior.
Gaia name: Masked_Warrior Name: Alexander Kingdom/role in kingdom: Prince of Syra Age: 21 Personality: Alexander, or Xander as he preferred, inherited the loud and lively character of his father and wouldn’t decline a good fight. His caring and helpful side are of his mother. If something bothers him he will say it, instead of keeping it to himself, what sometimes can be interpreted as a rude or insulting remark. Weapons: Just like his father, Xander wields a royal sword, a two-handed royal sword, one that belonged to his grandfather. Appearance: Xander is well build and muscled. Wielding his sword with one hand at ease, he is said to be the strongest of the royal family. The sky blue eyes and his blond hair, that reach his shoulders, are gifted by his mother. His sword, carried on his lower back, is covered by his medium blue cape, with the royal emblem on. His white vest is hidden by the light blue vest he wears over it. Darker blue pants and black boots dress him completely. He wears a necklace, ones belonging to his mother, and a ring (with the family emblem) as sign he is royalty. Other: Xander is an excellent horse rider and fine swordsman. King Radford didn’t let him spend much time on dancing, hence he figured one cannot defeat his enemies with a dance and focused more on teaching his son combat skills. This caused Xander to grown into an unwilling dancer, but more into a great tactician and speaker to other people.
Gaia name: Frozen_Fear Name: Akori Kingdom/role in kingdom: Prince Of Syra Age: 20 Personality: He is stubborn, and at times ignorant. He is different from his brothers, and he doesnt like the idea of being a prince. Though he still cares for his family, trying hard to protect them. He is a very skilled fighter, and always keeps his promises. No one is able to properly figure him out because he is very secretive. Weapons: Sharp Blade with ancient markings on it. Apperance: picture Other: he doesnt pay attention to orders.
Gaia name: Frozen_Fear Name: Hector Kingdom/role in kingdom: Prince of Syra (temorarily) Age: 19 Personality: He is joyfull, and convincing, tries to do his best to get attention, since he is the youngest. He tries to keep everything in a good mood, and avoids trouble. He wants to learn fighting skills like his brothers, so he beggs them sometimes. Weapons: Broad Sword Apperance: pic Other: none

Only to practice with her cousins when they have the time. She always goes and spends time with her uncle when she has the time or when she is called. Her eye is covered because she is blind in that eye.
Guards

A scar on his left cheek is an old wound he received when protecting Xander. Although most guards were uniforms, he is the exception by the approval of Xander. Rico wears a long green coat, with underneath a white cloth vest. Blue pants and brown boots make his outfit complete. Not wearing a uniform and rather common clothes often created the confusion of him being a villager. Though, by now, everyone in the castle knows who he is. Other: Being an excellent swordsmen, he often holds a friendly sparring with Xander. His Twin Blade is an unique weapon, he received for protecting Xander (when he received that scar) and he has mastered it with a deadly style.

He clicked his heels to the horse's sides. Shaking it's head a little, the horse kept up the pace. He had two guards accompanying him as he returned from one of the villages his father ruled over. He could see Syra's castle town ahead, slowing his horse so it didn't waste it's energy. Turning his head to see his guards coming up behind him, he smiled to them. "Another day of work passed, boys." Laughing with his guards, the gates to the walled town opened up, and they entered.
Getting up to the castle itself, he walked his horse into the stables. "You did a good job today, Syrva." He patted his horses neck, and it nudged him. "Stop it girl. I'm getting married soon, remember that. You aren't going to be the only girl in my life anymore." The horse kicked a bit and Roran luaghed. "We'll both need to get used to it. Now good night." Getting her into her stall, he made sure she had enough food and water, and walked out.
It's time Roran. No matter what happens in there, remember that it is for the good of your people. The fighting will stop, and peace will reign. You just need to at least pretend to be happy with this woman. Hopefully you will come to love her in time, but no one knows if that will happen. So for now, just pretend. He sighed as he entered the hallway in which his soon-to-be wife awaited. Knocking on the room she ws in, he didn't dare enter until given permission. He valued privacy.

Roran heard her calling, and sighed, attempting to clear his thoughts. "This is it," he told himself, turning the knob and pushing the door open, slowly. Looking up, he looked to her eyes instantly. Attempting to read them, he saw dispair and lonliness. His eyes trailed down her body, and then back up. She's beautiful. Just stunning.
Walking in, he closed the door behind him. Hearing it click shut, he was speechless. He know nothing about this woman, what she enjoyed, what she hated. And he was expected to take her as a wife instantly? He hadn't seen how this would work, but he only prayed. Walking up to her, he bowed slightly. "I...I am Roran, eldest Prince of Syra."

As she curtsied, he realized that this might not be as bad as he had imagined. "Princess Amaya, a very sweet name." Her name had rolled of his tongue, he liked the sound.
Blushing as she showed him the horse hair, he chuckled. "Yes, I love my girl down in the stables. Syrva, the best horse I've ever known. She'd do anything for me, and I'd do the same for her." His eyes drifted to the window, looking down at the stables, then they returned to Amaya's. "I suppose you'd like a tour of the castle?" Turning, so he was next to her, he made a loop with his arm, then realized it may be too much to ask so soon. Keeping the motion of his arm going, he put his hand out for her to go first. "After you, milady Amaya."
Looking out at his town, he sighed. "I hope something happens to the plans. I'd rather have Syra defeat Keros in combat, and then we'd rule the plains and forests. Our horsemen would be known as the best in the world and..." He had been speaking to himself in a hushed voice until he heard his son calling him. Walking out into the room, he looked curious to his second oldest son. "Alexander, what is wrong?"

“What isn’t wrong?” He turned to his father, the king, his hands in the air. His face showed anger and worries, as if the castle was breached by an unknown enemy. The guards inside the room, looked at each other with looks that said ‘A bad mood’. “Why have you ever agreed to this marriage?” Xander was in command of an army, when the war still waged. His plans, his strategies weren’t always without causalities, but he won every key battle. Now that this marriage was brought up, the war ended and he was forced to return home. Something he didn’t like, especially since he believed his kingdom was winning the war. The reason nor the benefit of agreeing to this marriage was something his father needed to explain to him. “With all due respect, father, but can you need see this was their sign of weakness? Why else do you think they would propose something like this? It’s because they knew they were going to lose! And they rather attempt a peace treaty then be defeated by us! By you!” All the anger and frustration had left when he shouted that last sentence. Fist bolded and breathing heavily, he awaited to hear his father’s decision to agree. The king’s decision to agree to this marriage.
