KNIGHT | Narcissa Van Pelt

Theme: Medieval, Fantasy, No Technology.

Worldbuilding: • THE KINGDOM OF MERTHONIA, OR THE LAND OF THE AFFORTUNED: The Kingdom of Merthonia is the vast land ruled by the Fortune Siblings, divided by three during the First War of Merthonia. The three divisions of Merthonia are The Capital of Merthonia, or the Merthonian Capital; the City of Zhinya, and the Kyriar Empire.

• Merthonian Capital or The Capital of Merthonia It's the biggest portion of Merthonia, consisting of the huge capital city of the kingdom, and the neighbouring provinces and villages that are in alliance with the City. It is ruled by the Eldest and Second Eldest Sisters of the Fortune Siblings, Narella and Desiree Fortune of Merthonia. It is mostly seaside and known for pirate sightings in its cities closest to the ocean. It is in alliance with The City of Zhinya.

• The City of Zhinya It's a city well-known for its festivals and huge celebrations. It is closest to the desert and suffers from arid and hot temperatures all year round. Zhinya not only is the city, but also the deserts and nearby farmlands that are around it, which all respond to the rulers of the City of Zhinya; the youngest of the Fortune Silbings, Princesses Estelle and Zaphira Fortune of Merthonia. The City of Zhinya is well-known for its religious practices and faerie myths, and they are very respectful of the supernatural. It is in alliance with The Capital of Merthonia.

• The Kyriar Empire It's an empire located in the deepest, coldest mountains of Merthonia. All-year round the Empire is envolved in lethal, freezing temperatures, and only during the month of Ophelius Kyriar's birthday does the temperatures quell. It is rumored that the reason for this dangerous weather is because of Late Emperor and Crown Prince of Merthonia Rowan Fortune's anguish after Ophell's death, that has displayed itself in the form of harsh snows. It's ruled by Youngest Prince Elyan Fortune of Merthonia, and after his older brother's encasement in ice in the First War, he's ruled it on his own. It is often in conflict with The City of Zhinya and The Capital of Merthonia due to remnants of the First Merthonian War.

• First War of Merthonia The war that divided Merthonia in three. It started because of the death of Ophelius Kyriar, mage and consort of Crown Prince Rowan Fortune. After the death of his husband, Rowan went into conflict with the rest of his siblings, excepting his younger brother Elyan, and started a war that lasted five years. Prince Rowan was encased in ice in the top of the highest mountain of the now Kyriar Empire to seal the war, and even while dead, his wild magic still affects the weather of the Empire, making it dangerously frozen and snowing all year, except on his beloved husband, Ophelius' birthday month.
