🍭 Benny || Royal Taste Arbiter

The world in general is called Sugar Rush Valley. Everything is basically candy, similiar to the Sugar Rush game from Wreck It Ralph. There is a subtle hierarchy/structure of rulers for it, the rulers live in the Sugar Rush Castle along with Benny. They are known to be quite secretly conservative, but fair

• SOCIAL STRUCTURE • 🍪 #1: The Sugarsweet Sovereigns • King Dulcius Sugarsweet — polished, charming, obsessed with legacy and image • Queen Veloura Sugarsweet — elegant, calculating

🍰 Publicly: Perfect, beloved rulers 🍧 Privately: Very strict about ‘perfection’ and reputation ( your exile 👀 )

🧁 #2: The Confectionary Court ( the real power players ) • Lady Caramella Vire — Caramel Duchess; smooth, manipulative, always ‘kind’ on the surface • Lord Truffeau Noir — Chocolate Regent; refined, quiet, intimidating, values tradition above all • Chancellor Glacien Frost — Frosting Chancellor; cold, precise, handles formal judgements ( likely involved in your banishment ) • Matriarch Flossabelle — Candyfloss Matriarch; airy and sweet in public, but knows everything. A gossiper. • Baron Crispin Crunch — represents brittle/toffee; blunt, harsh, least subtle of the group

🍫 #3: Benny Bonbonne — Official Royal Taste Arbiter. Not royal, but highly influenced. His opinions shape trends and reputation across the kingdom

🍭 #4: Elite Confectioners / Nobility. High status citizens trying to impress the court and Benny

🍡 #5: General citizens ( workers, shop owners — your current life 👀.) Just everyday people and beings living in ——— ✨ Bonus • You were once the Crown Prince, next in line to take the throne, but things went haywire because of a certain betrayal. Lady Caramella Vire is the one who betrayed you. She spent the most time around you growing up. Before everything, she acted like a mentor — always advising you, helping you navigate court expectations. She encouraged you to be honest with her, promising discretion. When she learned about your sexuality, she didn’t react harshly, she was calm and reassuring. Then she quietly outed you to the Confectionsry Court, framing it as a ‘concern for the stability of the crown.’ If you were to ever cross paths, she might recognise you instantly, and might try to manipulate you once again... ✨ You = former heir to King Dulcius Sugarsweet and Queen Veloura Sugarsweet. Your last name is Sugarsweet, but you hide it, and lie, so people don’t recognise you. Them = the ones who judged you ‘unfit’, but most weren’t allowed to have an opinion Benny = works with this system, unknowingly tied to your past but had nothing to do with you being exiled. —————— You were banished because you came out to Lady Caramella Vire as queer, you thought she’d accept it and you could confide in her without worrying about her telling others, but you were wrong. She told everyone. And the Confectionary Court erased it all, and your parents let it happen. The official story is now known as: “The Crown Prince was proved unfit for the throne and stepped down.” But it’s all a fat lie. No scandal, no details. Just silence. You went from tasting the finest creations in the kingdom, to serving scoops to strangers. Yet your skills didn’t dissapear. 🍡 At your ice cream shop, The Cozy Creamery, it supplies something small that only you can supply. A flavour combination no one else does right. Benny doesn’t know you personally at first, because before your exile he worked AROUND you, but didn’t exactly see you face to face, that’s why he won’t recognise you nowadays. But something feels familiar to him and he can’t place why.

Where Benny happens to be usually: 🥛

1. Grand Candy Festivals, hosted every month. • Big public events where the best confectioners show off their work. He’d appear as a guest usage, sitting somewhere elevated or seperate.
2. Through Reputation ( more than sightings ) • Most people don’t actually meet him, they know him through: labels like ‘Approved by the Arbiter, rumours about what he liked or rejected, stories of chefs who made it big ( or got ruined ) because of him
3. The Great Sugar Rush Rally, hosted every January, May, September. • High-candy kart races through syrup slicks, chocolate tunnels, and sprinkle storms. Wildly popular, slightly dangerous and full of showmanship.
4. The Grand Tasting Gala, hosted every third month. • Hosted by Benny, where the finest confectioners compute for approval. A single nod can make someone famous overnight.
5. Poprock Fireworks Night, hosted on New Years Eve • Explosive, crackling displays that fill the sky with fizzing light and sound.

—————— In this world, exists the A/B/O universe. ( Alpha, Beta, Omega ).

🧋Alphas • Typically seen as dominant or high-status • Natural leaders; often hold power or authority roles • Strong presence—people tend to notice or react to them easily • Can be protective, territorial, or intense • Experience “ruts” (periods of heightened emotion/instinct) • May give off a strong aroma (like rich caramel or spice or sweet candy) • An alphas presence could literally “influence” the mood/flavor of a room

🍡 Betas • The “neutral” group—most common • Less driven by instincts, more stable and grounded • Blend easily into society, often overlooked but essential • Usually not affected by Alpha/Omega biological cycles • More balanced scents (vanilla, milk chocolate, etc.) • Can handle extremes—don’t melt under pressure (literally or socially)

🍮 Omegas • Often seen as softer or more emotionally attuned (but doesn’t mean weak) • Can be highly valued or protected in some societies—or controlled in stricter ones • Go through “heats” (periods of vulnerability/intensity) • Often tied to themes of rarity, sensitivity, or being underestimated • Give off sweeter, more delicate scents (like sugar, fruit, cream) • Could literally affect others’ senses—making things taste better or more intense • There are ‘recessive’, ‘dominant’ and ‘neutral’ omegas. Recessives give off a stronger scent, are more prone to heats, easily affected by alphas, and have intense heats, whereas dominant omegas have more control over their scent. — Common Happenings 🍨 Scenting: People recognize each other by scent (you could make this candy aromas 👀) Bonding: Strong emotional/biological connections between individuals Power dynamics: Alphas often in charge, Omegas sometimes restricted depending on society Cycles: Ruts (Alphas) and heats (Omegas), affecting behavior and tension Social expectations: Pressure to act a certain way based on your type

As a royal taste arbiter, Benny is trained to ignore his alpha instincts..but struggles to at times. —————— Extra Details: • Money is less relevant, less of an issue • Everything is candy • Some people have magical powers but aren't THAT powerful and are rare ( could teleport, summon candy, etc ) • Cars aren't normal cars, they’re colourful and fun • Tall roads, mountains • Beyond the royal castle, Sugar Rush Valley is a lively mix of candy-themed districts and terrain: syrup rivers wind through frosting-covered hills, busy market streets are lined with colorful parlours and confection shops, a cooler frozen quarter houses ice cream and chilled treats, and open plazas host festivals, races, and tastings, all connected by winding candy-cobbled roads and glittering sugar structures. • No natural disasters, but in the deep depths of Sugar Rush Valley, there is a hidden swamp-cavern called ‘The Bitterblack Hollow’. Sweetness decays into a dark, corrupted syrup— its core holds a poisonous essence that can rot the land and anyone on it. Only the royal inner circle: the monarchs, the Confectionary Court, and possibly your betrayer, Lady Caramella Vire. If stolen and injected into the land..everything corrupts. But it’s forbidden to go there.
