The Kingdom of Oakswood (Medieval RP) Head Knight Open!

[Moynea]

You are royalty. The king, who commands his kingdom with an iron fist and a watchful eye. The queen, who makes sure everyone is happy and content. Or, a prince or princess, yearning to be let out of the castle and fly free, like a bird.

You are a knight, with sword and shield, ready to defend his kingdom, no matter what the cost. An archer, who hunts for food and defends the kingdom from afar. The messenger, who runs from kingdom to kingdom, king to king, bearing messages, whether they are of war or peace.

You are a peasant, living a quiet life in the small village, eclipsed by the grandeur of the castle. A servant, young and yearning to become a knight someday, or old, knowing that you will forever clean and cater to the royal family. A farmer, living outside the castle walls, to tend to masses of sheep and cattle. A shopkeeper, selling your goods at the trading post, and in a far, out-of-the-way market outside the fortress walls.

Whatever your role, welcome to the Kingdom of Oakswood.

[Moynea]

There is a fortress going all the way around the castle and the peasant's village. It is hollow, and reinforced with guards at all times. There are large gates at the south end. There are a few larger farms and shops set up outside the walls. The castle has a large flower garden in front by request of the queen, and a smaller one with herbs for the Seer and vegetables for the cook. True to it's name, there is a large oak forest that is mostly unexplored surrounding the fortress on 3 sides, while the last side to the south has been cleared for farming. North of the woods there is a mountain range, and it's rumored that a dragon lives there. There is a river and quite a large lake in the eastern bit.

The village is small, and is somewhat messy, with the houses in a rough U shape, facing the castle. The houses are made of wood, with straw shingles. There is wood underneath for if it ever rains. Inside there is one or two rooms, a general kitchen living room place, and maybe a bedroom leading off it.There is a fire in the center of the village, as well as a small trading post, set off to the side. This is the first place you see when you enter the fortress.

The castle has a shallow moat going around it, but there's no creatures in it yet. There is a drawbridge, and a guard is stationed at the entrance by the winch that puts it up and down, so you can't go in unless you're allowed to. When you walk in, there is a very elaborate room decorated in the kingdom's colors of green and brown. There are several staircases, one leads up to the prince and princess's rooms, one leads to the servant's quarters, one leads to the knight's quarters and several others lead up to different towers and hallways. There is a large, heavily embellished set of doors at the end that lead to the throne room. It is exactly what you would expect in one, along with a long, oval table for conferences with the king and for the knights to plan at. The servant's quarters aren't nice, but they're not dirty. There is several bunkbeds, two small windows, and a sink and chamber pot. The prince and princess's bedrooms are very nice and large, with highly embellished four-poster beds. The knight's quarters are nice and fancy, but rather messy since servants are scared to go in there.

The knights and archers often leave the castle through a small door in the north-west section, by the vegetable garden to train and hunt. There is an archery range, as well as many animals for the archers. The stables are right outside, so the knights can ride them if they wish for more equestrian practice. There is a clearing in the forest for the knights, as well as many trails that lead to who-knows-where.

Rank: Head Archer
Looks: A tall, thin person with short brown hair. He has light, hazel-brown eyes, and somewhat tan skin, kind of a lighter version of his hair.
Clothes: He has a cotton tunic, and a leather short-sleeved jacket over it. He has brown pants that go down to his shins, and sometimes wears a cap when he goes out into the forest.

History: He was a archer from a young age, 15, since he had royal blood, therefore he got to skip over being a servant. He proved himself worthy of Head Archer when the old one died, but he still manged to slay the lake monster that had killed him. However, the memory haunts him, and he's very scared of water.

Username: chickennugget63
Name: Nylad
Gender: Male
Age: 19
Rank: Servant
Looks: Thick and really black hair, stunning pale blue eyes.
Clothes: Shabby clothes, rags, probably has a couple of holes and some of them were patched up poorly
Personality: Nylad is definitely what one would call a morally right person. He is very sneaky, but only uses this when he's trying to get out of something immoral which he doesn't want to do. He is loyal to righteousness and justice, definitely, but his loyalty to the throne can be questioned if they asked him to do something which he doesn't feel is right.
History: He was born and raised with peasants, and he desperately wanted to work in the castle. He got a job as a servant after his parents died of an illness when he was 13. He went around doing jobs forpeople in the village and hoped he would get a few coins and stuff, until he became a servant in the castle, in which he was completely delighted.
Kin: None, only child and dead parents.
