Yes yes yes, well here we go, first of many....hopefully XD
The Kingdom of Bael stands tall, as it is the captial city among a few other powerful cities. Other cities may be more powerful in military, others in politics, while others may have some sort of economic strength that keeps them going. Either way, not all the cities seem to have the same main focus, except to serve under the Queen of Bael. Unlike most kingdoms, Kings are not chosen by birth, only the Queens are passed down among the family. Well, there are many different querks that run Bael, so I'll explain them seperately.
The Sacred Games are held once every 15 years. The purpose of these games is to choose the next Queen, normally the eldest daughter of the current Queen. Contenders will compete to wed the daughter, a planned mariage with a twist basically. While some fight for themselves, other more powerful nobles hire their own contenders in hopes of marrying the next Queen, which will in turn make them King, and Commander of the Knights for the capital.
Runes. What exactly are runes? They're mystical objects, giving the user magical power depending on the type of rune. Most runes are temporary, and a little more common then others, becoming destroyed once the user has fully tapped its power. Others, are a little more powerful, but come at a cost, as they are embedded into a part of the users body, but give unlimited use of the power. No pain, no gain as they always say...
History. A little history would be handy, especially if one like yourself plans to hold a seat of power. The first Queen was the one to come up with the lasting tradition of the Sacred Games. While some think its a little unfair, the women of nobility have seem to have just gotten used to it. A little farther down the road, the idea of having an army of Knights came up during the Armes War. The cities of Thallas and Faerce forged an uprising against the Queen, and threatened to destroy to growing Kingdom. After a full six years, the uprising was put down, and the cities were cast aside. Eventually, they became allies, but uneasy allies to some. The King, and Commander of the Knights, was killed during the war unfortunately, so there is a current dispute on who should take the new position. The city of Harrad developed a military aim, to make sure something such as the war wouldn't happen again, but there will always be conflict. The city of Raponds became the next conflict, as the appointed ruler of the city became power hungry, and his military stole the Moon Rune and casted a city into darkness. The moon always covers the sun in the city of Thallas to this day. All of these cities are connected by the Yawan River, making ships common for transportation, and piracy an easy option. Thus, Dragon Knights were made. Knights trained to ride Dragons, but not the normal dragon you think of from mythology and such. They look more like raptors, and are versatile on both land and water, and incredibly fast.
Lifestyle. The life of a Knight, commoner, or noble is nearly the same. The Knights normally spend their time listening to their commander, or remaining at their everyday post. Nobles usually carry out their own duties, and make sure things are in working order. Commoners have the most normal lifestyle, whether it be going to work, traveling somewhere, or just lying around. Every role is vital, no matter how small.
All of these factors play a key role in the Kingdom of Bael, which runs smoothly....most of the time. The only question that remains is...what exactly is your role?
