Medieval Punishment
May you not discover its horrors
Far in the past there was a small nation in Central Europe called Oscuria. Oscuria was a place unlike any other in Europe. The monarchy ruled with an iron fist with severe punishments for the most minor of crimes. This strict code of living proved to both help and hinder the country; people often were too afraid to challenge the laws by committing crimes but also were so set in their beliefs that new ideas were rarely accepted, making life very hard. The most recent king, King Xenite Oscuri, fell into rule in an uneasy time and had much difficulty controlling his people. He has begun to question the classic Oscurian ideals and wonders if he should follow the example of Oscuria's northern neighbor, Prussia. Will he be able to save Oscuria in its time of dire need? Or will the country perish with its customs?
Profiles: Send them to me. You can be either part of the Oscurian royal family (immortal) or a member of the court that is headed by the royal family, however after a certain amount I will stop accepting Royal family (immortal) profiles.
