Once your character arrives in Rosavelle, they're connected to its magic system by default. They still need to learn how to use it properly, but even characters from non-magical worlds will have access to Bloomcraft.<br /><br />For more general information on Bloomcraft, check out the <a href="https://royaldecreemods.dreamwidth.org/3828.html">main FAQ.</a> This page is for more detailed information on all the possible branches of Bloomcraft and for requesting upgrades to a new tier of Bloomcraft. Once your character is ready to level up, just submit the form below!<center><br /><b>BLOOMCRAFT UPGRADE FORM:</b><br /><textarea>&lt;b&gt;Character:&lt;/b&gt; &lt;b&gt;Bloomcraft Branch:&lt;/b&gt; &lt;b&gt;Upgrading To:&lt;/b&gt; &lt;b&gt;Thread Proof:&lt;/b&gt; &lt;b&gt;Cost:&lt;/b&gt;</textarea></center> </div></div> <div style="margin:85px auto;"><div style="margin:0 auto;padding:3% 2% 0;line-height:.6;text-align:right;font-size:clamp(30px, 4vw, 60px);font-weight:700;color:#fff;background:#c8635d;">INFUSERY</div> <div style="margin:0 auto 25px;padding:10px;background:#fff;"> Infusery is a branch of Bloomcraft that combines alchemy, potion-making, and the culinary arts. Practitioners channel the Everbloom's magic through things like food, drink, and potioncraft, allowing them to infuse simple dishes with powerful charms. As a result, spells in Infusery are often just as much recipes as they are incantations and a deft hand in the kitchen is necessary to pursue it to its fullest extent.<br /><br />Everyday practitioners of Infusery are most typically hobby bakers or housekeepers who manage a household. Those who pursue it formally often become career chefs, bakers, or apothecaries.<br /><br />Infusery may be a good fit for characters who enjoy taking care of others, prefer quieter or support-oriented magic, or express themselves through food and drink.<br /> <br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Tier One: Budding Brewer</i></b></span><br /><ul>You're still learning what not to blow up. You can now create simple potions and food with subtle magical effects. At this tier, the effects of your food only last up to an hour after being prepared and cannot be stored or preserved.<br /> <br />Examples of possible Infusery at this tier include:<br /><ul>❤ Brew teas or soups that gently enhance mood (calming, invigorating, etc.)<br />❤ Cook dishes that slightly restore energy or focus<br />❤ Create poultices for very minor injuries or headaches</ul></ul><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Tier Two: Hearthspell Cook</i></b></span><br /><ul>You've gained confidence and now your magic is edible, reliable, and just a little fancy. You've developed a stronger sense for magical ingredients and their effects and can reliably make brews that do what you intend. The effects of your magic now last a bit longer and are more predictable.<br /><br />Examples of possible Infusery at this tier include:<br /><ul>❤ Bake pastries that offer brief emotional insight (e.g. feel what your friend felt that day)<br />❤ Brew mild transformative potions (e.g. change hair color, alter voice)<br />❤ Cook meals that subtly protect or fortify (e.g. resistance to cold, minor luck buff)</ul></ul><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Tier Three: Kitchen Witchery</i></b></span><br /><ul>Your potions have presence - when someone eats or drinks your creations, they know. Whether that's a good thing depends on your cooking. You're becoming recognized as a skilled practitioner and others may come to you for your wares.<br /><br />Examples of possible Infusery at this tier include:<br /><ul>❤ Brew potions with real utility (e.g. temporary night vision, better reflexes, true-speech tea)<br />❤ Start experimenting with scent-based or inhaled effects (perfumes, incense)<br />❤ You may now bottle and store your creations reliably</ul></ul><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Tier Four: Alchemist's Table</i></b></span><br /><ul>Your concoctions are potent and multi-layered - at this level, you're practically a one-person apothecary. Your food and potions now carry your magical "signature" and can't easily be duplicated. Recipes can be tailored for specific outcomes, and complex preparations are in reach.<br /><br />Examples of possible Infusery at this tier include:<br /><ul>❤ Potions with dual effects (e.g. heals and reveals memory; strengthens and soothes)<br />❤ Begin crafting long-lasting or bottled effects for trade or gifting<br />❤ Dishes now affect not just individuals but small groups (e.g. unity meals, communal buffs)</ul></ul><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Tier Five: Heartstirrer</i></b></span><br /><ul>Your Infusery is refined, beautiful, and deliberate. It's not just your food that's taken on some of your magic but your kitchen itself - you may now enchant tools used in cooking or brewing to assist in preparation, boost the effects of our magic and reduce the risks of failure.<br /><br />Examples of possible Infusery at this tier include:<br /><ul>❤ Begin experimenting with hybrid magic (e.g. magically-grown ingredients with Infusery enhancement)<br />❤ Brew elixirs with conditional effects (e.g., only activate when the drinker says something true)<br />❤ Begin developing signature recipes or named magical dishes unique to your character</ul></ul><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Tier Six: Master of Bloom & Broth</i></b></span><br /><ul>You've reached the peak of what can be taught during your stay in Rosavelle. Your craft is known all over the kingdom. Infusery at this tier transcends alchemy and becomes a reflection of your character's heart and the bonds they cherish.<br /><br />Examples of possible Infusery at this tier include:<br /><ul>❤ Enchant feasts that influence whole rooms<br />❤ Create long-term, ritual-based brews that require multiple characters to consume together for full effect<br />❤ Distill powerful symbolic ingredients (e.g. potion brewed from a confession, pie baked with reconciliation)</ul></ul> </div></div> <div style="margin:85px auto;"><div style="margin:0 auto;padding:3% 2% 0;line-height:.6;text-align:right;font-size:clamp(30px, 4vw, 60px);font-weight:700;color:#fff;background:#c8635d;">MERAMANCY</div> <div style="margin:0 auto 25px;padding:10px;background:#fff;"> Meramancy is a branch of Bloomcraft that focuses on the manipulation of light, sound, air, and ephemeral forces. Practitioners channel the Everbloom's magic through illusions, crafting spells that dazzle the senses through showmanship or subtle glamors. Meramantic magic is less about brute force and more about finesse: the art of suggestion, sensation, and spectacle.<br /> <br />Everyday users of Meramancy are often performers, musicians, dancers, or daydreamers - anyone who feels at home on a stage. Those who train in it seriously might become illusionists, storytellers or travelling bards.<br /><br />Meramancy may be a good fit for characters who are expressive, dramatic, or emotionally intuitive... and anyone who likes a bit of theatrical flair.<br /> <br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Tier One: Flickerhand</i></b></span><br /><ul>You're just beginning to grasp the light. Your magic is charming but unpredictable - more sparkle than substance for now. At this stage, you can manipulate small amounts of light, air, and sound for brief, low-impact effects. Your illusions are fleeting and mostly cosmetic, but they're good practice for building control and flair.<br />Examples of possible Meramancy at this tier include:<br /><ul>❤ Whisper a short message across a small room<br />❤ Summon a soft breeze to cool off or ruffle someone's hair dramatically<br />❤ Produce harmless illusions like sparkles, motes of light, or a faint glimmer around your silhouette</ul></ul><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Tier Two: Gleamspeaker</i></b></span><br /><ul>You've learned how to shape the ephemeral. At this tier, your magic becomes more expressive and deliberate - you can now cast basic illusions with light and sound, and manipulate small gusts of air with intention. Your spells last longer, behave more reliably, and can convey a bit of meaning or emotion.<br /> <br />Examples of possible Meramancy at this tier include:<br /><ul>❤ Create minor illusions of sounds, such as laughter, music, or footsteps<br />❤ Project simple visual illusions like silhouettes, ghostly duplicates, or twinkling stars<br />❤ Redirect wind to gently lift objects like paper or petals, or close a curtain dramatically</ul></ul><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Tier Three: Glamourcrafter</i></b></span><br /><ul>Your craft now has weight - or at least the illusion of it. People pause when your magic shimmers through a room. You've developed enough control to create structured illusions with sound, movement, and intention. At this stage, your spells are more than pretty - they're expressive and potentially socially useful.<br />Examples of possible Meramancy at this tier include:<br /><ul>❤ Create simple glamour disguises that last a short time (e.g. altered hair, outfit, silhouette)<br />❤ Layer sound and visual effects for more immersive sensory tricks<br />❤ Craft moving light illusions that follow a set path or react to voice cues</ul></ul><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Tier Four: Voice of the Veil</i></b></span><br /><ul>Your Meramancy is no longer just performance - it's persuasion. You can weave illusions detailed enough to fool multiple senses and create complex effects that last longer or respond to emotion. Your spells now carry a personal aesthetic or "tone" that others begin to recognize as uniquely yours.<br /> <br />Examples of possible Meramancy at this tier include:<br /><ul>❤ Generate illusory doubles or phantom projections with semi-independent behavior<br />❤ Shroud a room in shifting veils of light or silence - ideal for private conversations or dramatic entrances<br />❤ Enchant a wind-carried message, visual projection, or ambient effect to linger in a location until triggered</ul></ul><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Tier Five: Starcaller</i></b></span><br /><ul>Your Meramancy is sophisticated and evocative - no mere trick. Light, air, and sound no longer just follow your will, they respond to your emotion. Your illusions begin to take on a distinct "signature," recognizable even among other spellcasters. You may now enchant tools or accessories that enhance your casting or focus your magic more precisely.<br /> <br />Examples of possible Meramancy at this tier include:<br /><ul>❤ Begin developing a personal illusionary motif (e.g. butterflies, constellations, music notes) that appears across all your spells<br />❤ Fly short distances or hover on summoned wind currents<br />❤ Create illusions that react to emotional states or spoken words (e.g. lights that dim when someone lies)</ul></ul><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Tier Six: Mirrorlight Maestro</i></b></span><br /><ul>You've reached the peak of what can be taught during your stay in Rosavelle. Your craft is known all over the kingdom. Meramancy at this level becomes an extension of the soul and all the things that inspire you the most.<br /><br />Examples of possible Meramancy at this tier include:<br /><ul>❤ Craft interactive illusions that respond to others' actions in real time<br />❤ Enchant large areas with atmosphere-changing effects (e.g. turn a ballroom into a starlit dreamscape or a street into a ghostly echo of the past)<br />❤ Project complex, multi-sensory performances that blend light, sound, and magic</ul></ul> </div></div> <div style="margin:85px auto;"><div style="margin:0 auto;padding:3% 2% 0;line-height:.6;text-align:right;font-size:clamp(30px, 4vw, 60px);font-weight:700;color:#fff;background:#c8635d;">IMPRINTWORK</div> <div style="margin:0 auto 25px;padding:10px;background:#fff;"> Imprintwork is a branch of Bloomcraft that channels magic through textile arts like sewing, knitting, embroidery, and weaving. Practitioners infuse the Everbloom's magic into fabric and thread, allowing them to enchant keepsakes, preserve emotions, or capture meaningful moments in physical form.<br /> <br />Everyday practitioners of Imprintwork are most often crafters, seamstresses, or hobbyists creating gifts for loved ones. Those who pursue it formally often become tailors, artisans, or creators of heirloom-quality pieces, enchanted garments, or woven tokens that hold powerful magic.<br /> <br />Imprintwork may be a good fit for characters who enjoy crafting by hand, are sentimental about objects, or aren't particularly hung up on loud and flash branches of magic and would prefer something quieter and a little more relaxed. Well, as relaxed as textiles ever get, anyway.<br /><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Tier One: Tangle-Fingered Tailor</i></b></span><br /><ul>You're still figuring out how to sew straight lines... and how not to accidentally enchant your laundry. At this tier, you can weave subtle magic into small handmade items, but the effects are faint and temporary, fading after a few hours.<br /> <br />Examples of possible Imprintwork at this tier include:<br /><ul>❤ Assemble friendship bracelets that briefly ease nerves or mildly increase luck, etc.<br />❤ Embroider handkerchiefs that help soothe minor headaches or fatigue<br />❤ Knit squares of wool or similar textiles that carry heat or cold</ul></ul><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Tier Two: Threadbinder</i></b></span><br /><ul>Your stitches are steadier now, and your magic's catching up. You can reliably infuse handmade items with your magic. Keepsakes crafted at this level hold their enchantments for longer - think days, not hours - and their effects are clearer and more deliberate.<br /><br />Examples of possible Imprintwork at this tier include:<br /><ul>❤ Knit scarves that carry subtle protection from the cold or anxiety<br />❤ Stitch pillowcases that encourage peaceful, dreamless sleep<br />❤ Craft pocket charms that lightly boost courage or ease homesickness</ul></ul><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Tier Three: Loomsinger</i></b></span><br /><ul>Your creations carry weight now - emotional, magical, and otherwise. Items stitched or woven at this tier hold onto their enchantments with real staying power, and people can feel the magic woven into them. At this level, your work is gaining recognition - and your friends might start asking for custom commissions.<br /> <br />Examples of possible Imprintwork at this tier include:<br /><ul>❤ Weave bracelets that glow faintly in the presence of strong emotions (love, fear, excitement)<br />❤ Embroider cloaks or jackets that help the wearer remain unnoticed in a crowd<br />❤ Sew small fabric tokens that store a cherished memory, replaying the feeling when held tightly</ul></ul><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Tier Four: Memorymaker</i></b></span><br /><ul>Your hands capture more than just thread - they capture moments. Your textiles, accessories, and keepsakes hold layered magic: protective, sentimental, and functional all at once. Each piece now bears your unique magical signature, and recreating your work is no easy task for others. You can tailor your enchantments with precision and purpose, crafting deeply personal or utility-focused items.<br /> <br />Examples of possible Imprintwork at this tier include:<br /><ul>❤ Weave fabrics that magically shield against harsh weather or minor magical interference<br />❤ Sew clothing with dual enchantments (i.e, calming the wearer and gently repelling unwanted attention)<br />❤ Create quilts or tapestries that passively boost morale or harmony within a shared space</ul></ul><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Tier Five: Heartstitcher</i></b></span><br /><ul>Your Imprintwork is intricate, unmistakable, and deeply personal. Every stitch, knot, or weave hums with intentional magic, and your workspace itself seems to echo your touch. You can now enchant the tools of your craft - needles, looms, scissors - to assist in preparation, boost the effects of your magic and reduce the risks of failure.<br /> <br />Examples of possible Imprintwork at this tier include:<br /><ul>❤ Stitch garments that activate protective charms only when the wearer feels genuine fear<br />❤ Begin blending Imprintwork with other magic branches (i.e, magically grown fibers enchanted through your stitching)<br />❤ Develop unique, signature designs - named patterns, motifs, or garments only you can craft with your distinctive magical touch</ul></ul><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Tier Six: Master of Loom & Lore</i></b></span><br /><ul>You've reached the peak of what can be learned during your stay in Rosavelle. Your textiles, garments, and keepsakes are known across the whole kingdom. Your magic transcends mere utility - every creation reflects your heart and the connections you cherish.<br /> <br />Examples of possible Imprintwork at this tier include:<br /><ul>❤ Weave tapestries or quilts that influence entire rooms or gatherings<br />❤ Craft long-term, ritual-based keepsakes that require shared emotional bonds for full effect<br />❤ Distill symbolic materials into your work (i.e, thread spun from a confession, buttons from shared memories)</ul></ul> </div></div> <div style="margin:85px auto;"><div style="margin:0 auto;padding:3% 2% 0;line-height:.6;text-align:right;font-size:clamp(30px, 4vw, 60px);font-weight:700;color:#fff;background:#c8635d;">BIBLIOMANCY</div> <div style="margin:0 auto 25px;padding:10px;background:#fff;"> Bibliomancy is a branch of Bloomcraft that concerns all things letters, words, writing, and reading. Practitioners of Bibliomancy can channel the Everbloom’s magic to transform the written word; they are able to weave into it charms and enchantments, whether or be a letter, a book, a note, a quick scribble on scrap paper, signage for a store, etc. <br /><br />Everyday practitioners of Bibliomancy are most typically voracious readers and writers who love books, both the reading and the writing of them. Those who pursue it formally often become academics or researchers whose focus is on the furthering and betterment of bibliomancy; others may become authors, librarians, booksellers, or teachers.<br /><br />Bibliomancy may be a good fit for characters who are more introverted, who express themselves primarily through writing or reading, who absolutely LOVE books, and who have a tendency to prefer peace and quiet over hustle and bustle.<br /><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Tier One: Fledgling Reader</i></b></span><br /><ul>You're still learning the ropes of what Bibliomancy even is, much less what it can do. At this level, you can infuse small pieces of text (book excerpts, short poems, notes) with minor enchantments. At this tier, effects last only about one hour, at which point they fade and the enchantments must be re-cast.<br /> <br />Some examples of Bibliomancy at this tier include: <br /><ul>❤ Write a short note or poem that can produce a small boost in mood, affection, and contentment.<br />❤ Imbue short passages in books the caster or subject has read with enchantments to ease grief or emotional pain.<br />❤ Utilize minor words of power for minimal healing, small but brief boosts of mood, or slight enhancement of one’s learning ability.</ul></ul><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Tier Two: Budding Author</i></b></span><br /><ul>You're not just a reader anymore; you're becoming an author in your own right, one who is growing comfortable with the written word and has steadily expanded their understanding of what that is and how it can be utilized. Effects from your enchantments last longer and are slightly more powerful. You're beginning to develop a “sixth sense” for what words, books, and letters (both alphabetical and missive) will best lend themselves to your magic.<br /><br />Examples of possible Bibliomancy at this tier include:<br /><ul>❤ Writing a poem or short passage which grants sustained and stronger enchantments<br />❤ Enchant whole books with magic that enables the reader to both know and understand their content just by touching them - effects last for around an hour<br />❤ Mastery of words of power increases: you now have a broader range of words you can use, though their effects remain small and brief.</ul></ul><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Tier Three: Wordcaster</i></b></span><br /><ul>Your power of bibliomancy is growing. Enchantments last longer and are stronger, and afford a broader range of spells and charms from which to draw. Others may begin to recognize your growing prowess and seek you out for a word of power or enchanted passage or poem. You are now able to set up a (very) small library or (slightly larger) office in which you can store your research, enchanted books, etc.<br /><br />Examples of possible Bibliomancy at this tier include:<br /><ul>❤ Whole book enchantments can now last longer, and impart more than just the book’s contents: they may now impress upon the caster or caster's subject certain moods, wishes, and even minor abilities from/of characters within the book.<br />❤ Short works (poems, notes, short passages) grant stronger and longer-lasting enchantments. These enchantments can now have more practical applications, such as inspiring the caster or subject to clean house, bake, engage in crafts, and consider writing letters of their own to those they care for.<br />❤ Words of power expand.<br /></ul></ul><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Tier Four: Celestial Speaker</i></b></span><br /><ul>Your enchantments can now be multilayered for more powerful, synergistic effects. You're an author, reader, and wordcaster all rolled into one. Your command of the written word now allows you to create more complex enchantments which have more lasting effects. You can now have a slightly larger personal library for your growing collection of magic books and other writings. This library has enough space to be able to double as your office.<br /><br />Examples of possible Bibliomancy at this tier include:<br /> <ul>❤ Whole book enchantments can now let the caster or subject experience the book, instead of simply gain its knowledge. This inhabitation of the story leaves lasting effects, good and bad.<br />❤ You can now write letters, short stories, and poems with better and longer-lasting charms. Your work can now inspire feelings of ardor or adoration for a third party (but not yourself).<br />❤ Enchantments can now affect up to three people at once</ul></ul><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Tier Five: Metamagical Grimoire</i></b></span><br /><ul>Your Bibliomancy has advanced by leaps and bounds. Your enchantments and charms are both more potent and more targeted: they can now be created for specific people, and effects will only work on those people. All your words are no longer just words; you speak and breathe magic, and it flows easily from your hand down your pen to the paper on which you write. Anyone who steps into your library may passively absorb small abilities or boosts just from being in the presence of so many strong enchantments.<br /> <br />Examples of possible Bibliomancy at this tier include:<br /><ul>❤ Summon books at will (as long as they are in your library)<br />❤ Enchant several whole books at once, and create enchanted series that have much longer-term effects. The user's sense of self will be under genuine threat without a relationship (of any kind) helping tether them to reality.<br />❤ Your words of power expand and can be combined in various new ways to draw out distinct and unique effects</ul></ul><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Tier Six: Lord of Linguistics and Literacy</i></b></span><br /><ul>You've reached the peak of what can be learned during your stay in Rosavelle. Your shop is always bustling with customers; you may even need to hire help to take care of more rote, daily enchantments and charms. Bibliomancy becomes a pathway for shaping the world with words alone.<br /><br />Examples of possible Bibliomancy at this tier include:<br /><ul>❤ Full collection enchantment. You can now enchant a whole collection or series of books. These enchantments are long lasting, typically on the order of 3 weeks.<br />❤ Shorter works can now have mild-to-moderate (depending on the target’s susceptibility) to hypnotic or suggestive effects.<br />❤ Distill symbolic materials into both your materials and your words of power (i.e, ink drawn from a sorrowful memory, words of power from a love confession)</ul></ul> </div></div> <div style="margin:85px auto;"><div style="margin:0 auto;padding:3% 2% 0;line-height:.6;text-align:right;font-size:clamp(30px, 4vw, 60px);font-weight:700;color:#fff;background:#c8635d;">ELEMENTALISM</div> <div style="margin:0 auto 25px;padding:10px;background:#fff;"> Elementalism is a branch of Bloomcraft centered around the manipulation of the four classical elements: earth, air, fire, and water. Practitioners learn to channel the Everbloom's magic directly into the natural world, beginning with a single element and gradually learning to master all four and all the many ways in which they work together.<br /> <br />Everyday practitioners of Elementalism are often gardeners, sailors, blacksmiths, fishermen, farmers, or anyone who works closely with nature. <br /> <br />Elementalism may be a good fit for characters who enjoy active, hands-on magic, appreciate nature and the outdoors, or like the idea of gradually mastering a broad and versatile set of abilities. <br /><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Tier One: Sparkseeker</i></b></span><br /><ul>You've taken your first steps into Elementalism and awakened an affinity for a single element of your choice. Your control is limited and requires concentration, but you've begun to understand how magic can influence the natural world around you.<br /> <br />Some examples of Elementalism at this tier include: <br /><ul>❤ Create a small flame in your palm or extinguish a candle<br />❤ Stir a gentle breeze or redirect drifting petals<br />❤ Shift loose soil, pebbles, or sand by hand-sized amounts</ul></ul><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Tier Two: Apprentice of Three</i></b></span><br /><ul>Your chosen element feels more familiar now, and you've begun experimenting with the others. While your strongest affinity still comes most naturally, you can now reliably perform simple manipulations across multiple elements.<br /> <br />Examples of possible Elementalism at this tier include:<br /><ul>❤ Lift dust, leaves, or flower petals with controlled gusts<br />❤ Shape small streams of water into simple forms<br />❤ Warm objects with fire magic or cool them with water magic without causing damage</ul></ul><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Tier Three: Elementweaver</i></b></span><br /><ul>The boundaries between the elements are beginning to blur. You've now developed at least a basic connection to all four elements, though some remain much easier to control than others. Your versatility is becoming one of your greatest strengths. People may begin to seek your help for everyday tasks.<br /><br />Examples of possible Elementalism at this tier include:<br /><ul>❤ Create sustained elemental effects that last several minutes without constant concentration<br />❤ Perform simple combinations between your first and second elements (e.g. steam, mud, heated stone)<br />❤ By now, you will have affinity for all four elements<br /></ul></ul><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Tier Four: Stormsinger</i></b></span><br /><ul>Your command of the elements has become fluid and instinctive. Rather than thinking of earth, air, fire, and water separately, you increasingly understand how they interact as parts of a greater whole. Your magic now bears the beginnings of a personal style that others may recognize.<br /><br />Examples of possible Elementalism at this tier include:<br /> <ul>❤ Construct durable walls, bridges, channels, or shelters from elemental materials<br />❤ Influence local weather conditions in small ways (encouraging a breeze, dispersing fog, gathering rain clouds)<br />❤ Create complex elemental combinations such as swirling firestorms, sculpted ice formations, or animated currents</ul></ul><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Tier Five: Heart of the Tempest</i></b></span><br /><ul>The elements respond to you almost as naturally as your own limbs. Your emotions, personality, and experiences now subtly shape the way your magic manifests. You may also begin enchanting tools or focus items that strengthen your connection to specific elements.<br /> <br />Examples of possible Elementalism at this tier include:<br /><ul>❤ Create semi-autonomous elemental constructs that carry out simple tasks (i.e, a wind construct that can deliver a message, a bucket of water that washes clothes on its own, etc.)<br />❤ Blend Elementalism with other branches of Bloomcraft (e.g. Infusery-powered elemental cooking, enchanted elemental textiles)<br />❤ By now, you will have confident control of all four elements</ul></ul><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Tier Six: Fourfold Sovereign</i></b></span><br /><ul>You've reached the peak of what can be taught during your stay in Rosavelle. Your mastery of the elements is known throughout the kingdom. Earth, air, fire, and water no longer feel like separate disciplines but facets of a single language you've learned to speak fluently. <br /><br />Examples of possible Elementalism at this tier include:<br /><ul>❤ Shape large areas of the environment through coordinated elemental magic (with mod permission)<br />❤ Maintain complex, multi-element constructs that persist for extended periods<br />❤ Create large-scale weather effects such as mist banks, storms, etc</ul></ul> </div></div> <div style="margin:85px auto;"><div style="margin:0 auto;padding:3% 2% 0;line-height:.6;text-align:right;font-size:clamp(30px, 4vw, 60px);font-weight:700;color:#fff;background:#c8635d;">ICONOCLASTY</div> <div style="margin:0 auto 25px;padding:10px;background:#fff;"> Iconoclasty is a branch of Bloomcraft concerned with the self and the soul. It has no masters, because it is not a practiced art. After all, it was first understood through the metaphor of the Devil, and one is <i>inhabited</i> by the Devil. It's because of this that Iconoclasty is ultimately an expression of one's truest self. It comes in many forms, but all warp the atmosphere around them; the Adversary is always there, waiting for a chance to be understood.<br /><br />Iconoclastics can be anything, but they thrive on challenge; they break rules, scoff at traditions, and often appear to be "selfish." Still, they're also valued for their ability to express what social convention would otherwise silence. As a young art, Iconoclasty lacks a formal set of skills or training, and in truth it may never develop one. How could anyone formalize a thing so diverse as the self?<br /><br />Iconoclasty might be a good fit for characters who are so bound by their own conventions and restrictions that words aren't enough to reach them, and for whom living metaphor might make an impact instead. As it involves the changing of one’s own body, it may also appeal to characters less attached to the way they look or present in the first place. <br /><br />Finally, one important disclaimer: though characters may not ICly know or choose what they will look like chasing this path, <b>the changes Iconoclasty brings should be a source of joy or affirmation to that character.</b> Whether or not the people around them think the changes are for the better is irrelevant; for an Iconoclastic, these changes are not “mutating into something new” but rather “finally becoming what I should be.”<br /><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Tier Zero: Doubting Heartr</i></b></span><br /><ul>Before taking any levels in Iconoclasty, choose a singular concept for your character to embody and develop towards. This core is vital to Iconoclasty as a whole, and will provide both theming and ideas for your magic moving forward. (Other players, including BB, will be happy to assist or brainstorm with you.) <br /><br />Examples of possible concepts and theming used by other characters include:<br /><ul>❤ Venus: “please see/look at me.” Themes: vision/acceptance; imagery: angels/light.<br />❤ Simran: “please remember me.” Themes: memory/awareness; imagery: jinn/fire and mist.<br />❤ Jupiter: “please touch/be touched by me.” Themes: contact/need; imagery: hands/gravity.</ul></ul><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Tier One: Quiet Heathen</i></b></span><br /><ul>You’ve opened your ears to the Everbloom’s song, but the signal is still faint beneath the noise. At this tier, you can catch tiny glimpses of your true self in the mirror, but the changes are fleeting.<br /><br />Generally, Iconoclasty at this tier should be small, temporary, and only identifiable to your character. In-character, think of this as the first traces of your character's true self beginning to show, and your character's drive to search it out.<br /><br />Examples of possible Iconoclasty at this tier for a few themes include:<br /><ul>❤ VISION: See lights dancing in the corners of your eyes, when you feel you’re missing something<br />❤ MEMORY: Smell a familiar scent from your childhood, when feeling lost<br />❤ CONTACT: Feel the echo of a hand holding yours, when lonely</ul></ul><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Tier Two: Rebel Spirit</i></b></span><br /><ul>The Everbloom’s song has a melody, and even if you can’t quite remember how it goes it feels familiar to you. The things manifesting within and without you may still be small or temporary, but the people closest to you may begin to notice something has changed.<br /><br />Generally, Iconoclasty at this tier is where the earliest changes can actually begin in your character. While these changes are now physical, they should still be small and/or temporary in scope - think the sorts of things people might not notice if they don't have extremely close CR with you! ICly, Tier 2 Iconoclastics may be aware of the ideal they are chasing, but they aren't quite capable of handling that power yet.<br /><br />Examples of possible Iconoclasty at this tier for a few themes include:<br /><ul>❤ ACCEPTANCE: Develop small cracks in your skin, when you share a secret<br />❤ AWARENESS: Leave steam in the air, when you tell an uncomfortable truth<br />❤ NEED: Become orbited by small objects, when lonely or needy</ul></ul><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Tier Three: Manifest Heresy</i></b></span><br /><ul>What was once just a melody is much more layered than you could have imagined. There is no longer any way to ignore the differences between <i>who you were</i> and <i>who you are</i>; the truth of who you are is clear at a glance. At this level, when you share yourself with others, you bring a part of that new clarity with you.<br /><br />Tier 3 Iconoclasty marks the <i>earliest permanent changes</i>. These should be relatively small, and confined to one idea or concept at a time; for Venus, this might take the form of growing new eyes, whereas for someone else it might take the form of "a voice that literally flows like water." Importantly, this is the point at which even outsiders can discern something is different.<br /><br />Examples of possible Iconoclasty at this tier for a few themes include:<br /><ul>❤ VISION: Grow wings to see all, when you can finally see another’s perspective<br />❤ CONTACT: Let your hands touch from afar, when you reassure another you are there<br />❤ MEMORY: Drape the world in mist, when you remind others of a shared past<br /></ul></ul><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Tier Four: Profane Actuality</i></b></span><br /><ul>In every part, a voice; in every voice, a lyric; in every lyric, a feeling. Many people would no longer think of you as human - but you are unmistakably you, now, and isn’t that beautiful? Your body and your purpose are inextricably linked, now. No turning back - not that you’d want to.<br /><br />Tier 4 changes are grand things, and reflect the moment in a character's journey that "a human with new features" becomes "not a human." These should be largely cosmetic reflections of the concept you chose earlier, and are intended as your character's first symbolic steps towards embodying the ideal they're chasing. Think "Venus hatching into an angel of light," or "Simran's entire body coalescing into mist."<br /><br />Examples of possible Iconoclasty at this tier for a few themes include:<br /> <ul>❤ ACCEPTANCE: Tear off the old eggshell, and finally let your whole body shine without lies<br />❤ CONTACT: Reach out with a hundred hands, and show each one’s desires without shame<br />❤ HONESTY: Let your body run clear like water, where jealousy can be washed free</ul></ul><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Tier Five: Living Syllogism</i></b></span><br /><ul>The expectations of others, the weight of the world, the confines of your body - these can no longer hold you down. The Everbloom’s song has inspired you along this path, but inspiration can only take you so far. Now, it is time to sing your own song.<br /><br />Until now, a character's changes may feel new or unfamiliar to them, and they may still not fully understand the depth to which they have changed. Tier 5 is the breaking point. A character at this level embodies their concept fully and effortlessly, though they may still find depths to explore within it. (For an example, consider Venus and the way she literally acts as light - dashing at blinding speeds through the sky, or slipping through a pane of glass, or draping around someone and warming them like sunlight.)<br /><br />Examples of possible Iconoclasty at this tier for a few themes include:<br /><ul>❤ VISION: Shine so brightly others can see you through solid walls<br />❤ MEMORY: Shroud an object with the mist of your body and restore it to what it remembers being<br />❤ SAFETY: Dissipate into shadow, and rest comfortably in any shaded area</ul></ul><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Tier Six: Axiom Incarnate</i></b></span><br /><ul>You exist in defiance of the world itself, unashamed and unbroken. For brief moments, your presence is sufficient to upend natural law - not just for yourself, but those you reach out to. Perhaps others will hear your own song in time, and oh, how beautiful it will be.<br /><br />A tier 6 Iconoclastic is a living contradiction - so much an embodiment of <i>themself</i> that they draw others into their existence. It is hard to look at a paragon of something without wishing you could follow that path, after all. If an Iconoclastic’s body is part metaphor for their ideals, this is the point at which that metaphor can impact others - provided you get player approval, of course!<br /><br />Examples of possible Iconoclasty at this tier include:<br /><ul>❤ VISION: Shine so brightly all lies told in your presence are burnt away<br />❤ SECURITY: Take a willing friend with you into your own shadow, safely and gently<br />❤ AWARENESS: Suffuse the air with such heat that you can't be ignored or dismissed</ul></ul> </div></div> </div></div> <div style="max-width:650px;margin:0 auto;padding:2px 10px 5px;line-height:1;font-family:arial, helvetica, sans serif;font-size:10px;text-align:center;color:#ed9eb1;"><a title="by 10billionghosts" href="http://10billionghosts.dreamwidth.org" style="text-decoration:none;font-weight:bold;color:#ed9eb1;">(CODE)</a></div> <br /><br /><img src="https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=royaldecreemods&ditemid=5026" width="30" height="12" alt="comment count unavailable" style="vertical-align: middle;"/> comments https://royaldecreemods.dreamwidth.org/5026.html public 107 https://royaldecreemods.dreamwidth.org/4767.html Mon, 01 Dec 2025 12:59:18 GMT https://royaldecreemods.dreamwidth.org/4767.html <div style="max-width:950px;margin:10px auto;padding:15px;background:transparent;line-height:1.5;font-family:arial, helvetica, sans serif;font-size:14px;text-align:justify;border:5px solid #c8635d;color:#c8635d;"><div style="margin:0 auto;padding:7%;background:#c8635d url(&#39;https://images.plurk.com/7E1wZ8753xO3B59puUpFbh.png&#39;)center;"> <div style="margin:85px auto;"><div style="margin:0 auto;padding:3% 2% 0;line-height:.6;text-align:right;font-size:clamp(30px, 4vw, 60px);font-weight:700;color:#fff;background:#c8635d;">PERMANENT AC</div> <div style="margin:0 auto 25px;padding:10px;background:#fff;"> Rather than submitting AC month by month, the perma-AC page lets players simply submit their activity as and whern they have it!<br /> <br />When you first app to the game, simply post individual toplevels for each of your characters with their name and canon as their permanent AC entry.

Dutiful and deeply committed to their role, they've spent their life studying politics, history, and the magic that keeps the kingdom thriving. Unfortunately, all those book smarts haven't exactly translated into common sense, and their understanding of social interactions comes primarily from formal etiquette lessons and romance novels (which may or may not be the best references). Socially awkward but doing their very best, they'll confidently say something bonkers only to realize like a ten whole seconds later what just came out of their mouth. With their coronation fast approaching, they've summoned advisors from across worlds to help them understand the one thing they can't seem to grasp - <i>love.</i> ... this is technically forbidden magic, but don't worry about it.<br /> <br /><img src="https://v2.dreamwidth.org/18134604/4234444"><br /><b>Nadeshiko Hanabira-no-Kisaragi<br />She/her</b><br />The crown princess's unflappable lady-in-waiting and bodyguard. A noblewoman from a distant land, she calls Rosavelle home now, though the story of how she came to serve the princess is, in her words, "long, tedious, and not relevant to current operations." (Translation: not your business). Despite her youth, Nadeshiko serves as the steward of the royal household - every servant ultimately answers to her. Her standards are high and under her flat affect is a razor wit and a habit of quietly skewering anyone who doesn't meet said standards - which is, unfortunately, most people. Beneath that cool exterior, though, is someone quietly devoted - the kind of person who won't say she cares, but will make sure the princess eats a hearty three meals every day regardless.</ul><br /> <br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Free NPCs</i></b></span><br /><ul><small><i>NPCs who can be used by players in threads/handwaved interactions without mod input - within reason!</i></small><br /> <br /><b>Chef Armand Fleurel<br />he/him</b><br />The castle's head chef and undisputed ruler of the kitchens. Rumor has it he's been manning Rosavelle's stoves longer than most of the castle staff have been alive, and he has the authority (and knife skills) to back it up. Every dish that leaves his kitchen is a masterpiece - or it doesn't leave at all. Generally agreed to be one of few people able to meet Nadeshiko beat for beat on perfectionism. Gruff but not unkind, Armand has a soft spot for curious newcomers - though anyone who dares enter his kitchen without washing their hands first will learn new definitions of "blanching."<br /> <br /><b>Marina Calendo<br />he/she</b><br />The master of the Crownkeepers' Stables, Marina oversees every hoofbeat and whinny on castle grounds. A lively horserider with sea-salt hair and a habit of speaking to animals as though they're gossiping back, he knows each creature by name, temperament, and preferred snack. Beneath her breezy charm lies the steel of someone who's broken more than a few stubborn stallions (and nobles) into good behavior. If you want a mount, you'll earn it - through kindness, patience, and maybe a few stable chores first.<br /> <br /><b>Fioretta Bellor<br />she/her</b><br />The castle's head gardener and caretaker of the Everbloom's Greenhouse. Cheerful, sun-kissed, and eternally soil-stained, Fioretta treats every flower like a dear friend. She claims the plants speak to her - and considering Rosavelle's magic, that might actually be true. Her knowledge of botany is rivaled only by her tendency to wander mid-conversation to scold a wilting rose. Somehow, she always knows exactly which bloom fits a person's mood, whether they were advertising it or not.<br /> <br /><b>Claude Fontaine<br />he/they</b><br />A polished but slightly scattered scholar who oversees the Amourian Library. The sort of person who can recall the etymology of any word but routinely forgets where he set his glasses. Warm and absentminded in equal measure, they delight in helping newcomers find their way through Rosavelle's history. Known to forget meals, appointments, and occasionally their own shoes, he's still one of the kingdom's foremost experts on magical theory.<br /> <br /><b>Lucia di Bravura<br />she/her</b><br />Master smith of the Emberlight Forge and the steady heartbeat behind Rosavelle's armory and artisanship alike. Built like her anvil and twice as stubborn, her temper is short, her pride enormous, and her laugh louder than the bellows. Despite her rough hands and booming voice, she's got a surprisingly gentle soul - quick to offer guidance to apprentices or to fix a broken trinket for anyone who asks nicely (and maybe brings snacks). The only thing brighter than her forge is her opinion of her own work.</ul> </div></div> </div></div> <div style="max-width:650px;margin:0 auto;padding:2px 10px 5px;line-height:1;font-family:arial, helvetica, sans serif;font-size:10px;text-align:center;color:#ed9eb1;"><a title="by 10billionghosts" href="http://10billionghosts.dreamwidth.org" style="text-decoration:none;font-weight:bold;color:#ed9eb1;">(CODE)</a></div> <br /><br /><img src="https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=royaldecreemods&ditemid=4585" width="30" height="12" alt="comment count unavailable" style="vertical-align: middle;"/> comments https://royaldecreemods.dreamwidth.org/4585.html public 0 https://royaldecreemods.dreamwidth.org/4303.html Wed, 22 Oct 2025 15:24:28 GMT https://royaldecreemods.dreamwidth.org/4303.html <div style="max-width:950px;margin:10px auto;padding:15px;background:transparent;line-height:1.5;font-family:arial, helvetica, sans serif;font-size:14px;text-align:justify;border:5px solid #c8635d;color:#c8635d;"><div style="margin:0 auto;padding:7%;background:#c8635d url(&#39;https://images.plurk.com/7E1wZ8753xO3B59puUpFbh.png&#39;)center;"> <div style="margin:85px auto;"><div style="margin:0 auto;padding:3% 2% 0;line-height:.6;text-align:right;font-size:clamp(30px, 4vw, 60px);font-weight:700;color:#fff;background:#c8635d;">TAKEN</div> <div style="margin:0 auto 25px;padding:10px;background:#fff;"> <ul><b>Octavia Blake</b> ❤ <span style='white-space: nowrap;'><a href='https://plangona.dreamwidth.org/profile'><img src='https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png' alt='[personal profile] ' width='17' height='17' style='vertical-align: text-bottom;

Thanks to the Everbloom's influence, everyone in Rosavelle can tap into magic and remain connected to it even if they leave the island. And this includes you! Once your character arrives in Rosavelle, they're connected to its magic system by default. They still need to learn how to use it properly, but even characters from non-magical worlds will have access to Bloomcraft.<br /> <br />There are six branches of Bloomcraft, each representing a different way magic expresses itself in the world. Each branch has six tiers of mastery, starting at Tier 1 (Beginner) and progressing all the way to Tier 6 (Advanced). You can focus on one or dabble in a few, depending on your character's vibe. Learning magic takes time and effort, but casual use is very normalized – people enchant their homes, cook with magic, and use Bloomcraft to add a little extra sparkle to daily life.<br /> <br />Tiers reflect the amount of learning your character can reasonably accomplish during their time in Rosavelle. Tier 6 is considered the upper limit for in-game growth under normal circumstances. If your character is the type to really buckle down and commit to learning past that though, feel free to contact the mods! We're happy to collaborate on custom advancements for characters and players who want to put in the work.<br /> <br />That said, you don't have to teach your character Bloomcraft to have fun in the game! This is just an optional part of the setting for interested players and characters to engage with.</ul><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>How powerful can my character get with Bloomcraft?</i></b></span><br /><ul>Pretty strong – but there are limits. Bloomcraft progression is designed to reflect what your character can realistically learn during their stay in Rosavelle. Even at the highest tiers, there's always room for growth beyond the game's timeframe (which players are welcome to plot out with mods if they stick around long enough).<br /> <br />Also, magic here is balanced for the setting – this isn't a "level to godhood in three weeks" situation. Bloomcraft is mostly here for fun and to give characters extra toys and tools to work with, not to blow up the town hall with a fireball.</ul><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>How does my character learn Bloomcraft?</i></b></span><br /><ul>From an IC perspective, your character can pick up Bloomcraft through active study, practice, and a little bit of trial and error. Some branches of magic, such as those associated with things like cooking or dancing, might come naturally, especially to characters already inclined toward those activities. Other branches – like illusions or more complex enchantments – will take focused effort, dedicated practice, or even finding someone to teach them.<br /> <br />Out of character, Bloomcraft progression is tied to the game's Bonus Thread system. To level up in a branch of Bloomcraft, you'll need two things:<br /><br /> <ul>❤ Enough points to buy the next tier<br />❤ IC thread(s) showing your character actively learning, studying, or practicing the magic</ul> <br />Characters don't level up by accident! They can stumble into using beginner magic in casual ways, but advancing through the tiers will always require intentional learning.<br /></ul><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>What are the branches of Bloomcraft?</i></b></span><br /><ul>The six branches are as follows:<br /><br /><ul>Infusery combines alchemy, potion-making, and the culinary arts. Practitioners channel the Everbloom's magic through food, drink, and potioncraft, infusing simple dishes with powerful charms. Spells are often recipes as much as incantations and a deft hand in the kitchen is as important as magical talent. Infusery suits characters who love caring for others, expressing themselves through food, or offering quiet support.<br /><br />Meramancy deals in illusions, glamours, and manipulation of the senses. Practitioners channel the Everbloom's magic through movement, showmanship, and sleight of hand, crafting spells that dazzle the senses and bend perception. Perfect for performers, charmers, or those who want to enchant through spectacle and wonder.<br /><br />Imprintwork enchants fabric, keepsakes, and handmade crafts. Practitioners channel the Everbloom's magic through stitching, sewing, and careful craftsmanship, weaving emotion into physical objects. A deeply personal magic, often used by artists, crafters, or sentimental types, Imprintwork suits characters who love to create, express themselves through gifts, or all of the above.<br /> <br />Bibliomancy infuses magic into letters, words, writing, and reading. Practitioners of Bibliomancy can channel the Everbloom’s magic to transform words; they weave charms and enchantments into letters, books, a quick scribble on scrap paper, even signage for a store. A natural draw for voracious readers and writers, academics and researchers, and others who love words in all their many forms.<br /><br />Floriomancy deals with the natural world and all green things that grow. Practitioners channel the Everbloom's magic through their magically gifted green thumbs but in skilled hands, it becomes far more than gardening. Flora and fauna grown through this magic often carry unique properties that can't quite be replicated through other means - which makes them invaluable resources to other Bloomcraft users. Floriomancy is ideal for caretakers, dreamers, cultivators and supportive types who prefer to lend a hand in the background.<br /><br />Elementalism wields aspects of the natural world as both tools and weapons. Practitioners of Elementalism can channel the Everbloom's magic to control the elements: earth, fire, wind, and water. Expressed through the user's body, elemental magic is versatile in both combat and domestic situations. Vivacious, energetic, and a little wild, Elementalism suits those with bold or bright personalities who love to get out there and experiment!<br /><br /></ul></ul><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>What are the tiers and how do I progress?</i></b></span><br /><ul>Mastering Bloomcraft is all about time and effort... for your character, anyway! OOCly, all you have to do is earn points through Bonus Threads and the like and show your progress with actual IC threads of your character learning, practicing, or experimenting with magic. Threads can be casual, experimental, funny, or serious – the important thing is showing your character actively developing their magic. Mishaps, weird experiments, and slice-of-life magical moments totally count!<br /><br />Once you meet both requirements, you're ready to level up! Characters are allowed to rank up twice per Season (i.e., once per month) assuming you have the points and threads necessary.<br /><br />Each branch of Bloomcraft has its own page where you can submit your rank up requests once you're ready, but here's a general guide on how you can expect progression to work and how many points you can expect to pay! Keep in mind that points and threads are tracked separately for each branch. If you want your character to be a magical jack-of-all-trades, you'll be earning those points branch by branch.<br /> <br /><table><thead> <tr> <th>Tier</th> <th>Points Required</th> <th>Threads Required</th> <th>Notes</th> </tr></thead> <tbody> <tr> <td>One (Beginner)</td> <td>Free at App</td> <td>N/A</td> <td>Everyone starts here!

Want a little canal-side apartment in Menthward? A cozy seaside cottage in Maerlys? A fancier address in Bellvine Hill? It's all possible with the right upgrades.<br /><br />Depending on the district, you’ll be able to buy housing of different sizes: Small, Medium and Large. Each property size can comfortably accommodate up to two, four and six occupants respectively. You also have the option of purchasing a <b>furnished</b> (F) or <b>unfurnished</b> (UnF) property depending on your budget and if you feel like getting your interior designer on.<br /><br />Once you own property, you can still purchase upgrades for it! Regardless of whether you're upgrading the default housing or a new space, housing upgrades can be stacked and combined however you like, letting you design a space that feels unique to your character. Mix and match upgrades to create a space that matches your character!<br /><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>District Housing Overview:</i></b></span><br /><ul><b>Menthward:</b> Affordable, lively, and practical. Houseboats, small canal-side apartments, and cozy flats tucked above bustling shops. Spaces are compact but charming, ideal for those who love being in the heart of the action. <b>Housing here maxes out at Medium size.</b><br /><br /><b>Primavain:</b> Eclectic, colorful homes with easy access to workshops and markets. Lofts, artist studios, and flower-draped townhouses are common. Like Menthward, <b>housing here caps at Medium size.</b><br /><br /><b>Maerlys:</b> Seaside cottages, fisher's homes, and functional coastal spaces dominate. Interiors tend to be simple and sturdy, perfect for those who value practicality, ocean views, and direct access to the sea.<br /><br /><b>Bellvine Hill:</b> Elegant villas, sprawling manors, and flower-covered estates overlooking the sea. Bellvine homes are prestigious, spacious, and designed for luxury. These are the largest and priciest properties available.</ul><br />Purchasing housing rewards is simple!

Your trinket reward could be an enchanted pastry, a self-winding music box, or a cool jacket – pretty much anything that reasonably fits the magical effect you're going for.<br /> <br />Trinkets are the easiest way for characters to access small, everyday magical items without needing to dive headfirst into Bloomcraft study. They're a great option for flavor, convenience, or if you want to surprise a character's friend with a little present.<br /><br />You don't need to spend points every time your character gets a new outfit, grabs coffee, or picks up random non-magical knick-knacks. Trinket purchases only apply to items that have a meaningful gameplay or IC impact.

Most quests revolve around running errands, solving small problems or helping out your fellow islanders in ways both mundane and magical. ICly, the Questboard is located in the Rosavelle Town Hall, where townsfolk and officials alike leave requests for help. Characters accept quests by speaking with the townhall staff and can even submit their own requests to the board! This, of course, can be handwaved and you’re free to just submit an OOC form.<br /> <br />OOCly, completing a quest is simple! All you need to do is fill out the quest submission form below with a description of how your character plans to complete the quest and attach a link to the thread where you play this out. Your thread doesn't need to be fully completed, but should include at least seven comments from your character before it's eligible for points.<br /> <br />There are two main types of quests available on the board:<br /> <br /><ul><b>Permanent Quests</b> are always available and can be taken up anytime during any season. They have a lower point reward, but are flexible: you can go out of your way to complete them with other players or just use them as prompt fodder in open posts or toplevels, which will also earn you a point. Basically, they're here to make sure there's always something available for your character to do around Rosavelle to earn some points or to give you a jumping off point on quiet months if nothing on the Seasonal Update works for you.<br /><br /><b>Seasonal Quests</b> are tied to the current Season in Rosavelle (Wilting, Fallow, Budding, etc.) and have deadlines - usually a few weeks after they're posted. If left undone, they may affect the world in minor ways. A missed repair, party prep gone wrong, a magical mishap left unresolved... nothing apocalyptic, but it might change local events or how NPCs respond to your character. These quests must be completed with 2 or more characters and are meant to give you chances to build CR, explore new places and create story hooks together. They also offer higher point payouts!</ul><br />Quests also include a difficulty tag which is mostly there for flavor and to help you gauge the kind of situations your character might find themselves navigating. Difficulty doesn't impose any kind of fail state by default - if a quest expires, that's the only way to fail it. The one exception is Hard difficulty quests: these require a behind-the-scenes dice roll on the mod side to determine whether your character's attempt succeeds ICly. Even if the roll doesn't go your way, don't worry! You'll still earn a reduced point payout once you submit your quest thread.<br /><br />New seasonal quests will be added each Season, so keep an eye on the board (and the calendar)!<center><br /><b>QUEST THREAD SUBMISSION FORM:</b><br /><textarea>&lt;b&gt;Quest:&lt;/b&gt; &lt;b&gt;Proposed Resolution:&lt;/b&gt; &lt;b&gt;Thread Proof:&lt;/b&gt; &lt;b&gt;Current Point Total:&lt;/b&gt;</textarea></center> </div></div> <div style="margin:85px auto;"><div style="margin:0 auto;padding:3% 2% 0;line-height:.6;text-align:right;font-size:clamp(30px, 4vw, 60px);font-weight:700;color:#fff;background:#c8635d;">CURRENT QUESTS</div> <div style="margin:0 auto 25px;padding:10px;background:#fff;"> <table><thead> <tr> <th>Quest Name</th> <th>Description</th> <th>Location</th> <th>Difficulty</th> <th>Points</th> <th>Type</th> <th>Deadline</th> </tr></thead> <tbody> <tr> <td>Helping Hands at the Atelier</td> <td>Volunteer to help supervise the Atelier's daycare.

Bonus threads are the main method of collecting points to go towards things like fun trinkets, housing upgrades, and learning bloomcraft, so be sure to make use of them!</ul><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>What counts as a bonus thread?</i></b></span><br /><ul>Bonus threads can come from any posts on the game's IC comm. Rather than comment count (though there is a comment minimum for bonus threads), awards are granted based on thread content. The idea is to reward players for engaging with the world and involving themselves in the setting!<br /><br />With a few exceptions, bonus threads will only need <b>five comments from you</b> to be eligible, and you can submit up to <b>ten bonus threads</b> per Season.</ul><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>When and where can I submit bonus threads?</i></b></span><br /><ul>Right on this page! Just fill in the form at the bottom and submit it in the comments.<br /><br />Submissions for bonus threads are permanently open, and submissions are processed on a rolling basis. Bonus threads are eligible for the month they were started and the month following – for example, if you started a thread in January, you would be free to submit it during January or February, after which its submission period would expire.</ul><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>What's the bonus thread criteria?</i></b></span><br /><ul>There are quite a few! The bonus thread criteria are split into two categories – one off and reoccurring.<br /><br />One-off bonus threads reward you for reaching major milestones, such as your character's IC intro. Reoccurring bonus threads reward characters for proactively engaging in the setting and mechanics of the game.<br /><br />Bonus thread criteria are as follows:<br /><br /> <ul><b>ONE-OFF REWARDS</b><br />❤ Posted your IC intro<br />❤ Met Calanthe for the first time<br />❤ Started a player-run business<br />❤ Used Bloomcraft for the first time<br />❤ Completed a quest from the Quest Board for the first time<br />❤ Submitted a Bloom Bond update for the first time<br />❤ First in-game love confession (platonic or romantic)<br /><br /> <b>REOCCURING REWARDS</b><br />❤ Tagged new CR in-game<br />❤ Tagged a new character on the Test Drive Meme<br />❤ Tagged a thread, with over 10 comments from you<br />❤ Hosted a mingle tagged by 3+ characters<br />❤ Went on a date (platonic or romantic)<br />❤ Confessed their love<br />❤ Had their first kiss with someone (once per CR!)<br />❤ Submitted a player plot</ul></ul><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>How many points do I get for bonus theads?</i></b></span><br /><ul>It’s 1:1! So for every bonus thread you submit, you earn one point. If a bonus thread is eligible for multiple rewards, you may submit it as such for a maximum of <b>two</b> points.</ul><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>What can I purchase with my points?</i></b></span><br /><ul>Points from bonus threads can be spent on all sorts of in-game perks! You'll find full costs and options on the [Rewards Page], but to sum it up: points can go toward Bloomcraft progression, housing upgrades, and magical trinkets. We may expand this in future, so keep an eye out!</ul><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Housing I get but what counts as a 'trinket'?</i></b></span><br /><ul>"Trinket" is our catch-all word for small magical items, but that doesn't mean it has to be an actual charm or necklace. Your trinket reward could be a cool jacket, an enchanted pastry, a flower crown, a love letter, or pretty much any item that reasonably fits the effect you're aiming for. If you're unsure, just check with the mods!</ul><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>It's taking forever to save! Can I split reward costs with other players?</i></b></span><br /><ul>Yes! Any non-Bloomcraft reward that costs more than 10 points can be split between multiple characters. For every 10 points of total cost, one extra character can chip in.<br /><br />For example, a 12 point trinket can be split between two characters while a 25 point reward can go up to three contributors. Generally, all the contributors should also have some IC stake in the matter as well - i.e., if three characters all chip in to buy a housing upgrade together, all three of them should be planning to use the house.<br /><br />This is both to encourage teamwork and to make it easier to unlock bigger rewards without having to grind all the points solo.</ul><center><br /><b>BONUS THREAD SUBMISSION FORM:</b><br /><textarea>&lt;b&gt;Thread Criteria:&lt;/b&gt; &lt;b&gt;Thread Proof:&lt;/b&gt; &lt;b&gt;Current Point Total:&lt;/b&gt;</textarea></center> </div></div> </div></div> <div style="max-width:650px;margin:0 auto;padding:2px 10px 5px;line-height:1;font-family:arial, helvetica, sans serif;font-size:10px;text-align:center;color:#ed9eb1;"><a title="by 10billionghosts" href="http://10billionghosts.dreamwidth.org" style="text-decoration:none;font-weight:bold;color:#ed9eb1;">(CODE)</a></div> <br /><br /><img src="https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=royaldecreemods&ditemid=2828" width="30" height="12" alt="comment count unavailable" style="vertical-align: middle;"/> comments https://royaldecreemods.dreamwidth.org/2828.html public 183 https://royaldecreemods.dreamwidth.org/2613.html Wed, 24 Sep 2025 16:48:46 GMT https://royaldecreemods.dreamwidth.org/2613.html <div style="max-width:950px;margin:10px auto;padding:15px;background:transparent;line-height:1.5;font-family:arial, helvetica, sans serif;font-size:14px;text-align:justify;border:5px solid #c8635d;color:#c8635d;"><div style="margin:0 auto;padding:7%;background:#c8635d url(&#39;https://images.plurk.com/7E1wZ8753xO3B59puUpFbh.png&#39;)center;"> <div style="margin:85px auto;"><div style="margin:0 auto;padding:3% 2% 0;line-height:.6;text-align:right;font-size:clamp(30px, 4vw, 60px);font-weight:700;color:#fff;background:#c8635d;">BLOOM BOND</div> <div style="margin:0 auto 25px;padding:10px;background:#fff;"> <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>What's the deal with these flowers?</i></b></span><br /><ul>When a character is apped into Royal Decree, they're assigned a flower that is reflected in gameplay - a unique bloom that grows in response to their fortunes in love. This is referred to, OOCly, as the Bloom Bond. These flowers grow and change based on your character's connections and relationships.<br /><br />As part of the app, you'll be asked to suggest three flowers you think might suit your character. Final assignments are made by the mod team to help keep things balanced across the cast, but we'll always take your suggestions into account!<br /><br />The current flower types are:<br /> <br /> <ul><b>❤ Hyacinth</b><br />Positive: Joy, sincerity, felicity<br />Negative: Jealousy, sorrow, rashness<br /><br /><b>❤ Hydrangea</b><br />Positive: Patience, loyalty, good fortune,<br />Negative: Pride, heartlessness, coldness<br /><br /><b>❤ Forget-me-not</b><br />Positive: Nurturing, affection, endurance<br />Negative: Grief, death, stubbornness<br /><br /><b>❤ Geranium</b><br />Positive: Protection, comfort, destiny<br />Negative: Doubt, melancholy, foolishness<br /><br /><b>❤ Tulip</b><br />Positive: Bright future, redemption, belief<br />Negative: Unrequited feelings, posessiveness, regret<br /><br /><b>❤ Lily</b><br />Positive: Modesty, prosperity, warmth<br /> Negative: Hatred, deception, greed</ul><br />You'll be assigned a flower, but you're free to choose the color that best represents your character's personal baggage - we mean, uh, aesthetic.</ul><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>In character, what does this mean?</i></b></span><br /><ul>ICly, these flowers are a part of the magic of the Everbloom. The Bloom Bond is formed when a character is summoned to Rosavelle by the Everbloom's magic, and that link to the Everbloom creates a space in its enchanted greenhouse just for them, where flowers begin to grow... or not. There's no visible connection to any character, but their link to the Everbloom's magic will give everyone an innate sense of whose flowerbed is whose.<br /><br />As your character builds relationships - romantic, platonic, or somewhere in between - their Bloom Bond responds. It flourishes with genuine connection and growth, and falters when bonds are neglected or feelings are buried too deep. For characters who wear a mask or keep people at arm's length, the Bloom Bond can become an unintentional tell: no matter how charming they act, a stubbornly wilted flower might say otherwise. The flowers also reflect how characters feel about each other. Deep connections may result in hybrid blooms appearing in both parties' flowerbeds, while broken trust or enmity might lead to twisted or unpleasant blossoms taking root.<br /><br />Bonus thread rewards may also be flower-specific, so don't forget to check the Bonus Threads page to make the most of what your bloom can do!<br /><br />In short, this is basically an in-universe CR chart with some bells and whistles, and players are encouraged to have fun with it! How will your blooms turn out?</ul><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>How do I track my Bloom Bond?</i></b></span><br /><ul>It's simple, don't worry! All you have to do is include a short note in their AC write-up describing how your flower is currently doing and what developments in CR have affected it.<br /> <br />If there turns out to be player demand for it, we're also open to making a page specifically for tracking Bloom Bonds so you can see them all in the same place.</ul> </div></div> </div></div> <div style="max-width:650px;margin:0 auto;padding:2px 10px 5px;line-height:1;font-family:arial, helvetica, sans serif;font-size:10px;text-align:center;color:#ed9eb1;"><a title="by 10billionghosts" href="http://10billionghosts.dreamwidth.org" style="text-decoration:none;font-weight:bold;color:#ed9eb1;">(CODE)</a></div> <br /><br /><img src="https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=royaldecreemods&ditemid=2613" width="30" height="12" alt="comment count unavailable" style="vertical-align: middle;"/> comments https://royaldecreemods.dreamwidth.org/2613.html public 0 https://royaldecreemods.dreamwidth.org/2389.html Tue, 23 Sep 2025 16:04:32 GMT https://royaldecreemods.dreamwidth.org/2389.html <div style="max-width:950px;margin:10px auto;padding:15px;background:transparent;line-height:1.5;font-family:arial, helvetica, sans serif;font-size:14px;text-align:justify;border:5px solid #c8635d;color:#c8635d;"><div style="margin:0 auto;padding:7%;background:#c8635d url(&#39;https://images.plurk.com/7E1wZ8753xO3B59puUpFbh.png&#39;)center;"> <div style="margin:85px auto;"><div style="margin:0 auto;padding:3% 2% 0;line-height:.6;text-align:right;font-size:clamp(30px, 4vw, 60px);font-weight:700;color:#fff;background:#c8635d;">THE CASTLE GROUNDS</div> <div style="margin:0 auto 25px;padding:10px;background:#fff;"> <br /><div style="width:100%;display:grid;grid-template-columns:1fr 2fr 1fr;grid-template-rows:100px 80px;gap:20px;"><br /><br /><br /><div style="transform: rotate(0);grid-column-start:1;grid-column-end:2;grid-row-start:1;grid-row-end:3;min-width:100px;margin-right:-10px;border-radius:50% 0 0 50%;border:5px solid #fff;background:#ccc url(&#39;https://i.pinimg.com/736x/d6/bb/a3/d6bba3fe989d1f55d045728df83086e3.jpg&#39;)center;background-size:cover;"></div><br /><br /><div style="transform: rotate(0);grid-column-start:2;grid-column-end:3;grid-row-start:1;grid-row-end:3;min-width:100px;margin:0 -15px;border:5px solid #fff;background:#ccc url(&#39;https://i.pinimg.com/1200x/8d/ce/4b/8dce4bc8cbebfd09271444822fb57d5f.jpg&#39;)center;background-size:cover;"></div><br /><br /><div style="transform: rotate(0);grid-column-start:3;grid-column-end:4;grid-row-start:1;grid-row-end:3;margin-left:-10px;border-radius:0 50% 50% 0;border:5px solid #fff;background:#ccc url(&#39;https://i.pinimg.com/1200x/a0/3e/00/a03e00e8a404ad7762b6d1ae2dfa0752.jpg&#39;)center;background-size:cover;"></div><br /></div><br />The Castle Grounds sit at the heart of Rosavelle, perched just uphill from the island's winding canals. It's here that the kingdom itself first took root - before the districts sprawled outward, before the gardens overgrew their borders, and before Rosavelle became the cozy little trade hub it is today. As a result, the castle grounds are larger than you might expect, dotted with the remnants of old homes, forgotten courtyards, and magical gardens that have long been left to the flowers.<br /> <br />At the center of it all stands the castle proper, its balconies wrapped in vines and its spires watching over the island. It's where Princess Calanthe lives, where the royal halls sprawl, and most importantly, where the Everbloom's greenhouse can be found - the glowing, glass-paneled heart of Rosavelle's magic.<br /><br />The castle itself is every bit as grand as you'd expect from the island's seat of power - sprawling white marble halls, coral-draped balconies, and tall stained glass windows that bathe the corridors in soft hues of gold and pink. It's regal, beautiful, and always bustling with staff keeping the place running... but beneath all the polish, there's an undeniable sense of quiet.<br /> <br />Normally, the grounds would be private, but as invited guests of the sovereign, characters have mostly free reign to explore both the castle and its gardens... within reason. Just try not to wander into any locked doors or ancient crypts without permission. The grounds themselves are high enough to give an incredible view of the island and its surrounding sea, and while it's a heck of a climb up the stairs to get up here, a private royal water taxi is always available to ferry characters back and forth (don't ask how it rows uphill, it just does).<br /> <br />The grounds tend to be quiet compared to the bustling districts below, but there's always something blooming, something hidden, and plenty of space to get lost in. </div></div> <div style="margin:85px auto;"><div style="margin:0 auto;padding:3% 2% 0;line-height:.6;text-align:right;font-size:clamp(30px, 4vw, 60px);font-weight:700;color:#fff;background:#c8635d;">THE CASTLE</div> <div style="margin:0 auto 25px;padding:10px;background:#fff;"> <br /><div style="width:100%;display:grid;grid-template-columns:1fr 2fr 1fr;grid-template-rows:100px 80px;gap:20px;"><br /><br /><br /><div style="transform: rotate(0);grid-column-start:1;grid-column-end:2;grid-row-start:1;grid-row-end:3;min-width:100px;margin-right:-10px;border-radius:50% 0 0 50%;border:5px solid #fff;background:#ccc url(&#39;https://i.pinimg.com/1200x/ea/1c/8f/ea1c8f8d485cf12e95460a263ae97a5d.jpg&#39;)center;background-size:cover;"></div><br /><br /><div style="transform: rotate(0);grid-column-start:2;grid-column-end:3;grid-row-start:1;grid-row-end:3;min-width:100px;margin:0 -15px;border:5px solid #fff;background:#ccc url(&#39;https://i.pinimg.com/736x/38/64/9a/38649a74894c39e39b53de9d5ff0a50a.jpg&#39;)center;background-size:cover;"></div><br /><br /><div style="transform: rotate(0);grid-column-start:3;grid-column-end:4;grid-row-start:1;grid-row-end:3;margin-left:-10px;border-radius:0 50% 50% 0;border:5px solid #fff;background:#ccc url(&#39;https://i.pinimg.com/736x/87/d3/63/87d363586944947a53ec5da4397f6ac7.jpg&#39;)center;background-size:cover;"></div><br /></div><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Radiant Hall</i></b></span><br /> <ul>The central artery of the castle, the Radiant Hall isn't <i>officially</i> called that, but it certainly lives up to its nickname. The marble floors gleam with inlaid mosaics of flowering vines, while tall stained-glass windows catch the sun and scatter it in blush-pink and golden light across the vaulted ceiling. Grand chandeliers made of coral and crystal sway lightly in the draft from the balcony doors, filling the space with little specks of colour that seem to dart all over the place. The Hall provides access to a majority of the most important locations in the castle so court officials, messengers, and servants are bustling through her constantly. It's kind of chaotic.<br /></ul><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>The Throne Room</i></b></span><br /><ul>A vast hall of white marble floors polished to a mirror sheen, flanked by columns wound in flowering vines. Above, the ceiling soars high into an arched vault, painted with murals of Calyx blooming in the sky. Rows of tall windows let sunlight pour in, scattering through stained glass into pink, gold, and sea-blue. The throne itself rests on a raised dais, carved of pale coral and inset with gemstones that catch the light. Courtly announcements, seasonal festivals, and the like are all celebrated here so the chamber is often filled with music and laughter. Most importantly of all, a set of grand double doors sit just behind the throne that, when opened, lead right to the Everbloom's greenhouse.</ul><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>The Hall of Sovereigns</i></b></span><br /><ul>Locked up tight beyond a set of grand double doors near the heart of the palace, the Hall of Sovereigns is a private chamber reserved for the royal family and their closest confidants. Sunlight filters in through stained glass windows depicting Rosavellan history in vivid, rose-hued scenes, casting delicate floral patterns across the polished marble floor. Along the curved walls sit glass cases, each housing a Coronation Crown from generations past. These living crowns, woven from blossoms grown at the Everbloom itself, sit frozen in time, their blooms a testament to triumphs, tragedies, and everything in between. The air here feels reverent, almost heavy, as if the room itself is holding its breath.</ul><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Amourian Library</i></b></span><br /><ul>A favourite hiding spot of Callie's, tucked off a sun-drenched corridor near the Hall of Sovereigns. The tall arched windows are framed with climbing roses that bloom year-round, their petals occasionally drifting inside on the breeze. Plush velvet armchairs are scattered around the place and delicate magical lamps hover overhead, casting a warm, steady glow perfect for reading (or napping). The towering shelves are stuffed with an eclectic mix: dusty old volumes on Rosavellan history, dog-eared magical treatises, scholarly essays on botany - and, naturally, an entire wing dedicated to love. From swoony epic romances to etiquette guides on courtly affection, there's something for everyone to page through. Easily one of the quietest corners of the castle… unless someone gets into the romance poetry section, in which case you might hear a dramatic reading or two in the stacks.</ul><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>The Sunspire Ballroom</i></b></span><br /><ul>If not for the Everbloom's greenhouse, the Ballroom would almost definitely be the jewel of the castle. Marble pillars ring the chamber, their surfaces entwined with gilded floral motifs, and a vast chandelier of rose-cut crystal hangs at its center under a high-domed ceiling painted with a sky.. When empty, the space is almost a little too big, to the point that passing through it is a slightly anxiety inducing affair but on nights of celebration it transforms into a high-energy whirlwind that makes you glad for the excess room to breathe. Rumor has it the polished floor is charmed to never scuff, no matter how many heels and boots sweep across it.</ul><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Marigold Dining Room</i></b></span><br /><ul>A surprisingly cozy little dining room… or, well, as cozy and little as you can get at the royal palace. Its round tables of pale marble are trimmed in gilt, small enough to seat a handful of diners comfortably without needing to yell down the table at your seatmates. Coral-hued draperies soften the tall windows, casting the room in warm gold and pink light throughout the day, while polished sconces glow with steady enchantments after dusk. Fresh flowers - often plucked from the palace gardens that very morning - fill low vases along the tables, so the room is always perfumed with the scent of flowers or delicious dishes. This is where the castle's everyday meals are taken and where courtiers, staff, and guests alike can share a meal without the food being overshadowed by the castle's grandeur.</ul><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Hearthsong Salon</i></b></span><br /><ul>Now this is more like it! If you're looking for a little bit of quiet time in the castle, the salon is the best place to do it. A cheery little tea room papered in pale florals and hung with gilt-framed mirrors, with light from tall stained-glass windows bathing the space in gentle shades of pink and gold. Low tables are scattered among velvet sofas and carved wooden chairs, each one laid with fresh blossoms and the staff are always present to serve up some tea or some sweet and savory treats if you ask nicely. And there's plenty to do while you're sipping tea! Cabinets along the wall hold neatly arranged sets of cards, board games, and puzzles for anyone looking to test their wit or luck, while shelves brim with lighter reading material - poetry collections, folktales, and illustrated romances. Musicians sometimes drift in to play quietly in the background, though more often the room is filled with the hum of conversation and bursts of laughter.</ul><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Stag's Rest Lounge</i></b></span><br /><ul>The Salon's dusky counterpart. Paneled in dark mahogany with brass fixtures that glow under the steady warmth of enchanted lanterns, the lounge carries a mellow, almost conspiratorial atmosphere. Plush leather chairs and low-backed sofas cluster around carved tables, the air scented faintly of pipe smoke, spiced wine, and cedarwood from the hearth. Rather than the cheery games and puzzles of the salon, the Lounge is fitted with a billiards table and a few dartboards. Decanters of fine spirits line the bar in one corner, tended by staff who are quick with a refill but discreet with their ears. The walls are hung with hunting prints and landscapes, softened here and there by trailing ivy. There's windows, but they're draped in heavy velvet that obscures the light from outside and makes it alarmingly easy to lose track of time in here.</ul><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Azurite Banquet Hall</i></b></span><br /><ul>In contrast to the slightly more low-key dining room, the Azurite Banquet Hall is where the castle hosts its feasts and celebrations - and you can sure tell! Polished oak tables stretch nearly the length of the room, their surfaces gleaming with intricate carvings of roses and waves. The walls are adorned with enormous tapestries that depict Rosavelle's history through blooms and symbols rather than battles, each one woven with threads that shimmer faintly under candlelight. Even when it's not in use for royal dinners, the hall carries a faint perfume of wine, spiced fruit, and roses from the kitchens beyond.</ul><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>The Kitchens</i></b></span><br /><ul>Despite the elegance of the castle, the kitchens are warm and unpretentious - a sprawling warren of stone hearths, copper pots, and long prep tables worn smooth by generations of use. The air is always fragrant: bread baking, herbs drying, sauces simmering over low flames. Chefs and assistants move with practiced ease, weaving through the bustle of clattering pans and the occasional courier dropping off rare ingredients. Guests lucky enough to slip inside often find themselves plied with a sweet tart or savory pastry before being gently shooed back into the corridors - that said, if you're really determined to make use of the kitchens, they'll make some room for you… so long as you're happy to pitch in with their work.</ul> </div></div> <div style="margin:85px auto;"><div style="margin:0 auto;padding:3% 2% 0;line-height:.6;text-align:right;font-size:clamp(30px, 4vw, 60px);font-weight:700;color:#fff;background:#c8635d;">THE GREENHOUSE</div> <div style="margin:0 auto 25px;padding:10px;background:#fff;"> <br /><div style="width:100%;display:grid;grid-template-columns:1fr 2fr 1fr;grid-template-rows:100px 80px;gap:20px;"><br /><br /><br /><div style="transform: rotate(0);grid-column-start:1;grid-column-end:2;grid-row-start:1;grid-row-end:3;min-width:100px;margin-right:-10px;border-radius:50% 0 0 50%;border:5px solid #fff;background:#ccc url(&#39;https://i.pinimg.com/736x/53/22/fb/5322fb4933c9eb2477e78b0d05021f1a.jpg&#39;)center;background-size:cover;"></div><br /><br /><div style="transform: rotate(0);grid-column-start:2;grid-column-end:3;grid-row-start:1;grid-row-end:3;min-width:100px;margin:0 -15px;border:5px solid #fff;background:#ccc url(&#39;https://i.pinimg.com/736x/f1/47/fe/f147fe708ced1225d80dd4b5488bf88d.jpg&#39;)center;background-size:cover;"></div><br /><br /><div style="transform: rotate(0);grid-column-start:3;grid-column-end:4;grid-row-start:1;grid-row-end:3;margin-left:-10px;border-radius:0 50% 50% 0;border:5px solid #fff;background:#ccc url(&#39;https://i.pinimg.com/736x/26/dc/98/26dc987f330d36330ab18b1cdecb9623.jpg&#39;)center;background-size:cover;"></div><br /></div><br />The Everbloom's greenhouse is the shining jewel of the castle grounds, a vast glass sanctuary built around the kingdom's most sacred blossom. At its center stands the Everbloom itself - a gigantic tree that towers almost to the top of the castle itself, its pale pink petals gleaming with a gentle inner light. The air here hums softly with magic, a low, steady thrumming that you feel in your chest as much as hear.<br /> <br />The greenhouse's arched panes are tinted the palest pink as well, casting everything inside in a warm, rosy glow. Sunlight filtered through the glass makes even the shadows soft and vibrant, and the air inside is always warm and faintly humid - not stifling, but comforting. Flowers of every imaginable variety thrive here, their colors richer and their petals larger than anywhere else on the island thanks to the Everbloom's presence. In the sections of the greenhouse closest to the Everbloom itself, individual flowerbeds mark the Bloom Bonds of Rosavelle's guests and companions, each one nurtured by the Everbloom's magic until it becomes something truly spectacular.<br /> <br />Typically, access is restricted to the current monarch and a handful of trusted scholars but as Callie’s personal guests, you’re trusted to come and go as you please. How nice! </div></div> <div style="margin:85px auto;"><div style="margin:0 auto;padding:3% 2% 0;line-height:.6;text-align:right;font-size:clamp(30px, 4vw, 60px);font-weight:700;color:#fff;background:#c8635d;">THE BARRACKS</div> <div style="margin:0 auto 25px;padding:10px;background:#fff;"> <br /><div style="width:100%;display:grid;grid-template-columns:1fr 2fr 1fr;grid-template-rows:100px 80px;gap:20px;"><br /><br /><br /><div style="transform: rotate(0);grid-column-start:1;grid-column-end:2;grid-row-start:1;grid-row-end:3;min-width:100px;margin-right:-10px;border-radius:50% 0 0 50%;border:5px solid #fff;background:#ccc url(&#39;https://i.pinimg.com/1200x/4d/f3/1b/4df31bbb1718f75e4bc5a53f85ef36f7.jpg&#39;)center;background-size:cover;"></div><br /><br /><div style="transform: rotate(0);grid-column-start:2;grid-column-end:3;grid-row-start:1;grid-row-end:3;min-width:100px;margin:0 -15px;border:5px solid #fff;background:#ccc url(&#39;https://i.pinimg.com/736x/54/20/a0/5420a00b3b067e8e38ed64200a639268.jpg&#39;)center;background-size:cover;"></div><br /><br /><div style="transform: rotate(0);grid-column-start:3;grid-column-end:4;grid-row-start:1;grid-row-end:3;margin-left:-10px;border-radius:0 50% 50% 0;border:5px solid #fff;background:#ccc url(&#39;https://i.pinimg.com/1200x/a1/98/49/a1984968afdec2c5e634df178cdaf6e2.jpg&#39;)center;background-size:cover;"></div><br /></div><br />Once the heart of Rosavelle's old military, the Barracks haven't needed to house an army for some generations now. Instead, they've been refurbished to accommodate guests of the royal family - like you!<br /> <br />The buildings themselves are sturdy and symmetrical, built of solid pale stone that's been softened by ivy and flowered trellises. Wide arched windows let in lots of light, while tiled roofs gleam rose-gold at dawn and dusk. They're mostly practical in their construction but the efforts to put some colour and warmth into the place keep the Barracks from feeling too austere.<br /> <br />The grounds are divided into six near-identical residences, each named for a different bloom - Hyacinth, Hydrangea, Forget-me-not, Geranium, Tulip, and Lily - with matching gardens planted out front. Each one contains:<br /><ul><li>Private bedrooms with ensuite bathrooms for every resident</li><br /><li>A shared dining hall and kitchen</li><br /><li>A cozy common room</li><br /><li>A small library space stocked with essentials</li></ul><br />Each building opens out into a shared courtyard with a fancy fountain, ringed by benches, flowerbeds, and lantern-lit paths. There's also a few quieter spots like shaded porches and tucked-away benches if you're needing a little time to yourself.<br /> <br />A small staff keeps everything running smoothly, tending to meals and upkeep, but the Barracks are otherwise nice and private.<br /> <br />How are there always enough rooms for all the new arrivals, you ask? ...don’t worry about it.<br /> </div></div> <div style="margin:85px auto;"><div style="margin:0 auto;padding:3% 2% 0;line-height:.6;text-align:right;font-size:clamp(30px, 4vw, 60px);font-weight:700;color:#fff;background:#c8635d;">THE GROUNDS</div> <div style="margin:0 auto 25px;padding:10px;background:#fff;"> <br /><div style="width:100%;display:grid;grid-template-columns:1fr 2fr 1fr;grid-template-rows:100px 80px;gap:20px;"><br /><br /><br /><div style="transform: rotate(0);grid-column-start:1;grid-column-end:2;grid-row-start:1;grid-row-end:3;min-width:100px;margin-right:-10px;border-radius:50% 0 0 50%;border:5px solid #fff;background:#ccc url(&#39;https://i.pinimg.com/736x/08/75/a9/0875a93fc978e7927d6a94632e29f4ba.jpg&#39;)center;background-size:cover;"></div><br /><br /><div style="transform: rotate(0);grid-column-start:2;grid-column-end:3;grid-row-start:1;grid-row-end:3;min-width:100px;margin:0 -15px;border:5px solid #fff;background:#ccc url(&#39;https://i.pinimg.com/736x/38/64/9a/38649a74894c39e39b53de9d5ff0a50a.jpg&#39;)center;background-size:cover;"></div><br /><br /><div style="transform: rotate(0);grid-column-start:3;grid-column-end:4;grid-row-start:1;grid-row-end:3;margin-left:-10px;border-radius:0 50% 50% 0;border:5px solid #fff;background:#ccc url(&#39;https://i.pinimg.com/1200x/af/e0/f4/afe0f4d3a3b353eb34edc55656c5472b.jpg&#39;)center;background-size:cover;"></div><br /></div><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Emberlight Forge</i></b></span><br /><ul>Follow the sound of hammers pounding on metal long enough and you'll come across a wide open-walled structure with a roof of stained glass panels tucked into a sheltered corner of the castle grounds. The forge is fueled as much by Bloomcraft as it is by coal or flame and even though the forge never goes cold, none of the flames ever seem to spread anywhere they shouldn't. Apprentices and seasoned smiths alike can be found shaping everything from simple nails to ceremonial arms, though most of the work here is focused on delicate artistry rather than weaponry. Visitors are welcome, so long as they respect the heat and the craft.<br /></ul><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Dawnfield Grounds</i></b></span><br /><ul>A broad stretch of manicured lawns, flower-ringed paths, and open fields kept deliberately clear for physical training and recreation. It's not too far from the castle, so if you're itching to stretch your legs after spending too much time indoors then this is the ideal place to do it. Once upon a time, knights sparred here beneath the banners of the crown, but these days you're just as likely to see nobles and scholars practicing Bloomcraft exercises, racing each other across the grass, or hosting friendly tournaments of fencing and archery. Stone steps circle the grassy areas and provide some seating, and in the evenings the fields glow faintly with lanternlight so guests can linger long after the sun sets.</ul><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Lilac Couriers' Loft</i></b></span><br /><ul>While only technically being on the grounds by virtue of being up high in one of the towers that holds up the castle gates, the Couriers' Loft is an essential part of the castle's ecosystem as it's the place Rosavelle's messenger doves call home. The tower windows are always open to the wind and ribbons and charms tied to perches flutter in the draft as birds come and go, carrying letters to and from every corner of the island. A small staff of couriers and caretakers tends to the birds and visiting the loft is often as much about the view as the mail - on clear days, the whole kingdom stretches out beneath the tower.</ul><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Crownkeepers' Stables</i></b></span><br /><ul>Despite their name, the Crownkeeper's Stables far from formal and stuffy - sunlight filters through skylights onto polished stone floors, and the stalls are lined with enchanted wood that hums faintly with protective charms. This is the place the carriage horses of the crown can be found, along with a handful of rarer steeds gifted from abroad. Stablehands keep the place reasonably calm and tidy (or as best as they can manage with this many horses to tend to) and it's not unusual to see a curious noble or guest brushing a mane or sneaking a treat to their favorite animal.</ul><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Moonpetal Conservatory</i></b></span><br /><ul>Beyond the Everbloom's greenhouse lies a quieter, lesser-known structure where rare night-blooming flowers are cultivated, its domed roof veined with iron and glass. By day it looks simple enough - rows of pale greenery in clay pots - but when night falls, the entire conservatory glows with soft silver-blue light as petals unfurl in unison. Scholars and alchemists sometimes visit to study their properties, but for most guests, the appeal lies in wandering its moonlit paths and getting to know all the unusual plants you can find here.</ul> </div></div> </div></div> <div style="max-width:650px;margin:0 auto;padding:2px 10px 5px;line-height:1;font-family:arial, helvetica, sans serif;font-size:10px;text-align:center;color:#ed9eb1;"><a title="by 10billionghosts" href="http://10billionghosts.dreamwidth.org" style="text-decoration:none;font-weight:bold;color:#ed9eb1;">(CODE)</a></div> <br /><br /><img src="https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=royaldecreemods&ditemid=2389" width="30" height="12" alt="comment count unavailable" style="vertical-align: middle;"/> comments https://royaldecreemods.dreamwidth.org/2389.html public 0 https://royaldecreemods.dreamwidth.org/2048.html Tue, 23 Sep 2025 15:22:00 GMT https://royaldecreemods.dreamwidth.org/2048.html <div style="max-width:950px;margin:10px auto;padding:15px;background:transparent;line-height:1.5;font-family:arial, helvetica, sans serif;font-size:14px;text-align:justify;border:5px solid #c8635d;color:#c8635d;"><div style="margin:0 auto;padding:7%;background:#c8635d url(&#39;https://images.plurk.com/7E1wZ8753xO3B59puUpFbh.png&#39;)center;"> <div style="margin:85px auto;"><div style="margin:0 auto;padding:3% 2% 0;line-height:.6;text-align:right;font-size:clamp(30px, 4vw, 60px);font-weight:700;color:#fff;background:#c8635d;">THE KINGDOM OF ROSAVELLE</div> <div style="margin:0 auto 25px;padding:10px;background:#fff;"> <br /><div style="width:100%;display:grid;grid-template-columns:1fr 2fr 1fr;grid-template-rows:100px 80px;gap:20px;"><br /><br /><br /><div style="transform: rotate(0);grid-column-start:1;grid-column-end:2;grid-row-start:1;grid-row-end:3;min-width:100px;margin-right:-10px;border-radius:50% 0 0 50%;border:5px solid #fff;background:#ccc url(&#39;https://i.pinimg.com/736x/e6/a0/3d/e6a03dc69f19ac8ec85e96bd966ff57d.jpg&#39;)center;background-size:cover;"></div><br /><br /><div style="transform: rotate(0);grid-column-start:2;grid-column-end:3;grid-row-start:1;grid-row-end:3;min-width:100px;margin:0 -15px;border:5px solid #fff;background:#ccc url(&#39;https://i.pinimg.com/736x/99/f7/63/99f7633a4a74fb80dad663882d3d85ce.jpg&#39;)center;background-size:cover;"></div><br /><br /><div style="transform: rotate(0);grid-column-start:3;grid-column-end:4;grid-row-start:1;grid-row-end:3;margin-left:-10px;border-radius:0 50% 50% 0;border:5px solid #fff;background:#ccc url(&#39;https://i.pinimg.com/736x/18/d6/40/18d6409aca2d3508dcbfcb72f09445f2.jpg&#39;)center;background-size:cover;"></div><br /></div><br />Rosavelle is a small island nation situated in what its people call the Azurite Sea. Though distant from its neighboring lands, it sees a steady flow of visitors thanks to its reputation as a small but notable trade hub. The climate is temperate and gentle, with the weather ebbing and flowing with the phases of Calyx, a rose in the sky that seems to take the place of Rosavelle's sun and moon. Each Season is roughly analogous to one from Earth - Wilting is Fall, Fallow is Winter, Budding and Ripening are Spring while Flourish and Full Bloom are Summer.<br /><br />As the kingdom is so large, players are given the freedom to handwave smaller details and incidental locations. Some information to get you started can be found below.<br /><br />The island is divided into several districts, all of which can be easily accessed through the many canals that cover the island. <b>Menthward</b> is Rosavelle's lively market district, where boats travel the waterways and vendors sell fruit, seafood, and flowers from their boats. <b>Marelys</b> sits along the southern coast and is home to the island's fishing docks and coral farms. <b>Bellvine Hill</b> is where many of the wealthier citizens and nobles live, with stone paths and balconies covered in flowers overlooking the sea. <b>Primavain</b> is the center of Rosavelle's artisan community, filled with open-air markets, workshops, and plenty of flowers. And of course, there's the <b>Castle Grounds</b> where most of the government busywork of Rosavelle gets done.<br /><br />Much of Rosavelle's food and textile resources are produced on the island itself - seafood, fruit, and coral farming are major industries - and life here is comfortable for most. There is little to no poverty, just greater or lesser access to luxury and status, and foundational education is freely available to all. For higher education - particularly in academia, specialized magical study, or the sciences - students often pursue opportunities on the mainland, though many eventually return to contribute to island life.<br /><br />Rosavelle uses a simple two-tier currency: <b>Crowns and Pieces</b>, with 100 Pieces to a Crown. Daily necessities cost around 20 Crowns, and most citizens earn about 20,000 Crowns a year. Crowns handle everyday purchases, while Pieces cover small expenses. Anything beyond comfort - like fine dining (50 - 100 Crowns), magical services, or custom imports - will be priced accordingly. Wealthy citizens, especially those in Bellvine Hill, often earn 50,000+ Crowns annually.<br /><br />Housing throughout Rosavelle tends to be modest, often built into or around existing gardens and waterways. More luxurious homes and estates are found in Bellvine Hill and other elevated areas, while the canal-lined streets of Menthward are lined with townhouses and apartments above the waterline. Most people travel by boat, with water taxis and ferries connecting all major parts of the island, though on-foot carriages for public and private use are easy to find as well.<br /><br />Rosavelle's entertainment scene isn't exactly what you'd call wild, but there's still plenty to do before and after night falls. Menthward is home to a handful of cozy pubs, outdoor music circles, and candlelit lounges. Maerlys offers bonfire parties on the beach and starlit sailing excursions. Even Bellvine Hill hosts dances or spontaneous musical gatherings, as well as something stranger: the occasional late-night masquerade - if you can snag an invitation. </div></div> <div style="margin:85px auto;"><div style="margin:0 auto;padding:3% 2% 0;line-height:.6;text-align:right;font-size:clamp(30px, 4vw, 60px);font-weight:700;color:#fff;background:#c8635d;">MENTHWARD</div> <div style="margin:0 auto 25px;padding:10px;background:#fff;"> <br /><div style="width:100%;display:grid;grid-template-columns:1fr 2fr 1fr;grid-template-rows:100px 80px;gap:20px;"><br /><br /><br /><div style="transform: rotate(0);grid-column-start:1;grid-column-end:2;grid-row-start:1;grid-row-end:3;min-width:100px;margin-right:-10px;border-radius:50% 0 0 50%;border:5px solid #fff;background:#ccc url(&#39;https://i.pinimg.com/1200x/ea/5e/76/ea5e769b8ca5595a498b4ec83134e21d.jpg&#39;)center;background-size:cover;"></div><br /><br /><div style="transform: rotate(0);grid-column-start:2;grid-column-end:3;grid-row-start:1;grid-row-end:3;min-width:100px;margin:0 -15px;border:5px solid #fff;background:#ccc url(&#39;https://i.pinimg.com/736x/fd/67/1f/fd671f2bcb54a04594c3ca7b3629062a.jpg&#39;)center;background-size:cover;"></div><br /><br /><div style="transform: rotate(0);grid-column-start:3;grid-column-end:4;grid-row-start:1;grid-row-end:3;margin-left:-10px;border-radius:0 50% 50% 0;border:5px solid #fff;background:#ccc url(&#39;https://i.pinimg.com/1200x/d2/6a/1f/d26a1fcb75fee05d1ca4d4960169915c.jpg&#39;)center;background-size:cover;"></div><br /></div><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Town Hall</i></b></span><br /><ul>A charming, ivy-draped building sat beside one of Menthward's widest canals, Rosavelle Town Hall serves as the more accessible, approachable face of the kingdom's government. While the grander matters of state happen up at the castle, this is where everyday Rosavellans come to sort permits, register events, or bring their concerns to the officials who actually listen. The manicured garden out front is almost as famous as the building itself. This is where the [Quest Board] can be ICly located, a well-loved bulletin board in the main hall overflowing with requests for help, odd jobs and the like. It's maintained by the Town Hall's staff, so be sure to check in with them if you want to fulfil - or submit! - a request.<br /></ul><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>The Promenade</i></b></span><br /><ul>The district's main (on land) street, lined with flower carts, pop-up performances, and cozy cafes. Lanterns crisscross overhead and glow like warm fireflies after sunset. While the canals are where you'll find the most variety, the Promenade is home to most of Rosavelle's most reliable, long-term shops and cafes. An open-air market is held three times a week as a more accessible alternative for those who can't make it down the canals.</ul><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Belamour Bridge</i></b></span><br /><ul>The standout feature of Menthward's prettiest canal, Belamour Bridge is impossible to miss... mostly because it's absolutely smothered in flowers. Couples and companions of all stripes from across Rosavelle come here to hang their collaboratively woven flower crowns as a symbol of their affection. The magic of Rosavelle ensures that as long as the relationship blooms, so too does the crown, so of course the bridge is dripping with flora.</ul><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Canalstar Outfitters</i></b></span><br /><ul>A shop geared towards travelers and locals alike, selling stylish but practical outerwear, accessories, and footwear perfect for navigating Rosavelle's waterways. Rain cloaks, wide-brimmed hats, enchanted waterproof satchels - you name it, they carry it. The tailors here are particularly skilled and will happily adjust just about anything in the shop to match your needs, and if there's nothing that suits your fancy, they'll whip up something brand new instead.</ul><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>The Floating Basket</i></b></span><br /><ul>A lively floating market where boats drift by selling fruit, seafood, garlands, and handmade trinkets. The vendors are notoriously good at upselling, but it's hard to resist when the strawberries and fish came straight off another boat five minutes earlier.</ul><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Doctor Lavande's Canal Clinic</i></b></span><br /><ul>If you can't make it to the doctor, the doctor will make it to you! ...by boat, of course. Dr. Lavande is a well-known figure in Menthward, piloting their bright teal gondola down the canals with a little lantern swinging from the bow and a small cabinet of medical supplies on board. Equal parts healer, busybody, and beloved neighborhood fixture, they offer check-ups, quick treatments, and friendly scolding wherever they dock.Their services are mostly basic - patching up minor injuries, offering wellness advice, or soothing seasickness - but their network of contacts means they can direct you to more serious care if needed. A handy option if you're under the weather but too busy, too stubborn, or too seasick to get off your boat.</ul><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Rosette Rentals</i></b></span><br /><ul>A bustling little dock offering short-term luxury canal boat rentals for residents and tourists alike.

The air hums with activity: sailors shouting greetings, merchants haggling over prices, gulls wheeling overhead (and eyeing unattended snacks), and fishing boats bobbing gently beside coral-farming vessels as crews haul in the day's catch. Most of the seafood making its way to Rosavelle's markets or castle kitchens starts its journey here. Locals often gather along the dockside cafes or leaning over railings to watch the organized chaos unfold.<br /></ul><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Harbor Bloom Market</i></b></span><br /><ul>A cheerful, open-air collection of stalls where locals gather at dawn to trade the island's freshest treasures just steps away from the briny deep where they were retrieved. While the market is best known as a place to pick up the freshest catches of fish as soon as they're hauled onto shore, you can also find raw coral for use in magic or mundane crafting and all sorts of seaside and sealife flora and fauna just ready to take home with you. Or if you're not the cooking type, there's plenty of street food vendors ready to serve up anything you buy into a delicious fish dish. Nothing hits like sashimi fresh from the waves!</ul><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>The Thistle & Thorn</i></b></span><br /><ul>The dock's favorite pub and the unofficial watering hole for anyone looking to unwind. The pub is beloved for its warm, lived-in atmosphere and its truly impressive range of local ales, ciders, and fruity cocktails. Regulars pack the place for trivia nights, lowkey acoustic performances, and the inevitable, absolutely chaotic sing-alongs that break out after a few too many drinks. If you're after a proper meal, their seafood stew is famous as a hangover cure... or at least keeping you full while you nurse one.</ul><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Coraline Strand</i></b></span><br /><ul>A soft, sandy stretch of beach along Marelys' southern curve. By day, the shore is peaceful but rarely crowded - perfect for lounging, sketching the waves, or otherwise escaping the bustle of the markets and docks. Once night falls, the Strand transforms into a favorite haunt for moonlit strolls, quiet picnics, and night fishing for those pesky specimens who can't be caught while it's light out. The sand is lightly luminescent, and a few artists in the community are known for making ephemeral drawings in the sand to be enjoyed before the morning tide washes them away again.</ul><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Roselight Springs</i></b></span><br /><ul>A beloved bathhouse that's been running for generations, built around the island's naturally occurring hot springs. Locals flock here after long days at sea or the bustling markets to wash off in the mineral-rich pools or enjoy a good steaming in the saunas. Private baths and shared open-air springs are both available, making it perfect for everything from solitary relaxation to gossip sessions with friends. Rumor has it the waters here do everything from revitalize your skin to curing migraines, and while that's probably not all true, you'll definitely feel better once you leave than you did before going in.</ul><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Lapis Lookout</i></b></span><br /><ul>Perched high on the Marelys cliffs and beloved among locals and tourists alike for offering some of the most breathtaking views of the bay across the whole kingdom. The path winds through flowering hedges and swaying grasses until you reach the overlook, marked by a single carved bench worn smooth by decades of use. The fence and all the surrounding trees have been strung with a number of wind chimes, as a good-luck tradition in Rosavelle to wish departing ships safe passage. As it's such a beloved spot, locals claim more than a few grand love stories (and catastrophic breakups) began right here.</ul> </div></div> <div style="margin:85px auto;"><div style="margin:0 auto;padding:3% 2% 0;line-height:.6;text-align:right;font-size:clamp(30px, 4vw, 60px);font-weight:700;color:#fff;background:#c8635d;">PRIMAVAIN</div> <div style="margin:0 auto 25px;padding:10px;background:#fff;"> <br /><div style="width:100%;display:grid;grid-template-columns:1fr 2fr 1fr;grid-template-rows:100px 80px;gap:20px;"><br /><br /><br /><div style="transform: rotate(0);grid-column-start:1;grid-column-end:2;grid-row-start:1;grid-row-end:3;min-width:100px;margin-right:-10px;border-radius:50% 0 0 50%;border:5px solid #fff;background:#ccc url(&#39;https://i.pinimg.com/736x/37/12/b3/3712b309c3c8fa71d28070e6c86ecb70.jpg&#39;)center;background-size:cover;"></div><br /><br /><div style="transform: rotate(0);grid-column-start:2;grid-column-end:3;grid-row-start:1;grid-row-end:3;min-width:100px;margin:0 -15px;border:5px solid #fff;background:#ccc url(&#39;https://i.pinimg.com/736x/7a/1b/59/7a1b591cd9337e392a3d20236ee85c7b.jpg&#39;)center;background-size:cover;"></div><br /><br /><div style="transform: rotate(0);grid-column-start:3;grid-column-end:4;grid-row-start:1;grid-row-end:3;margin-left:-10px;border-radius:0 50% 50% 0;border:5px solid #fff;background:#ccc url(&#39;https://i.pinimg.com/736x/2d/6c/1f/2d6c1f5a5a2f2e24ae1a691a157f77bc.jpg&#39;)center;background-size:cover;"></div><br /></div><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Marigold Hall</i></b></span><br /><ul>A beloved community fixture in Primavain. A cheerful, bustling workshop space where locals and visiting artisans alike can rent time at shared looms, forges, kilns, and painting studios. The Hall prides itself on being open to everyone, whether you're a seasoned master or someone who's never held a brush in their life. Throughout the year, Marigold Hall also hosts seasonal craft fairs, exhibitions, and hands-on classes. It's a great place to pick up new skills, trade ideas, or just admire the endless creativity the artisans of Rosavelle have to offer. No experience is necessary - just your enthusiasm.<br /></ul><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Fountain Market Plaza</i></b></span><br /><ul>A lively, bustling hub dedicated entirely to handmade and artisan goods made by local craftspeople from around the kingdom. This open-air marketplace attracts a colorful array of local craftspeople - from skilled weavers and potters to jewelry makers and candle crafters - all eager to showcase their finest creations. Many set up small demonstration areas where they'll happily chat about their craft or offer quick lessons for the curious. During the warmer and sunnier seasons, the plaza bursts into even greater life with themed craft fairs, live music and storytelling, and workshops that invite everyone to try their hand at everything from flower weaving to glassblowing.</ul><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Little Buds Atelier</i></b></span><br /><ul>A childcare facility for little ones who are a bit too young to start formal schooling just yet. Children here spend their days painting with enchanted watercolors, listening to music from wandering street performers, and learning their first bits of flower lore from patient caretakers. The atelier operates on a community model, welcoming kids from all across the island regardless of background, so it's as common to see the child of a noble as it is the kid of a florist or artisan building block towers together. Its staff of caretakers are all volunteers and most are artisans themselves, offering short creative workshops when they're not wrangling tiny hands and snack breaks.</ul><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>The Amber Knot</i></b></span><br /><ul>A bakery that everyone in Rosavelle seems to know by name - and for good reason. The cozy interior is lined with honey-toned wooden shelves packed with confections, and on weekends the warm, buttery smell spills into the streets. Their signature rose-shaped bread isn't just pretty to look at - it's got an irresistibly sweet taste and texture. Their cookies are something else entirely - frosted with equal parts sugar and Bloomcraft, the Knot's treats have a way of brightening even the dullest day. It's a sort-of agreed upon tradition by those around Primavain that presenting someone with a surprise confection from the Knot is a plausibly deniable way to flirt.</ul><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Sablier Repairs</i></b></span><br /><ul>The go-to spot for anyone with a malfunctioning clockwork device... or anything even remotely mechanical, really. From delicate music boxes to sturdy canal boat engines, if it ticks, tocks, or whirs, this is where you bring it. The shop's owner, a young man who once studied on the mainland before returning to the island, is a friendly, eccentric tinkerer with a boundless curiosity for all things tech and magic. Always ready with a warm smile and a quick story, he's just as happy to fix your treasured heirloom as he is to share the latest trends in enchantment or offer a crash course in basic magical mechanics. </ul><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Bloomlight Theater</i></b></span><br /><ul>A charming playhouse tucked along one of Primavain's canal streets, its ivy-covered facade marked by a glowing rose-shaped lantern above the entrance. Inside, the theatre is intimate rather than grand - velvet seats, golden sconces, and a stage that seems to shimmer faintly under the lights thanks to subtle enchantments woven into the wood. The Bloomlight is famous for its community productions, which range from lighthearted comedies and romances to experimental plays written by local poets. Traveling troupes and musicians often book short runs here, too. Audiences are encouraged to bring flowers, not just as gifts for the performers but also to decorate the stage - by the end of a show, it's often covered in blossoms. On quiet nights, the theatre doubles as a gathering space for open-mic poetry, impromptu serenades, and story-sharing circles.</ul><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>String & Soul</i></b></span><br /><ul>Primavain's go-to tailor shop - and unofficial gossip headquarters. The boutique itself is warm and inviting, with bolts of fabric stacked from floor to ceiling, sewing machines humming softly in the background, and the faint smell of lavender and old books lingering in the air. The owners, a sharp-eyed but kind-hearted duo, have a reputation for patching up just about anything from ripped sleeves to broken hearts. It's said they know all the neighborhood's secrets - not through any magic, but because they're the first to sew the evidence of passionate affairs, dramatic breakups, and all manner of other relationship dramas out of (or in to!) their repairs.</ul> </div></div> <div style="margin:85px auto;"><div style="margin:0 auto;padding:3% 2% 0;line-height:.6;text-align:right;font-size:clamp(30px, 4vw, 60px);font-weight:700;color:#fff;background:#c8635d;">BELLVINE HILL</div> <div style="margin:0 auto 25px;padding:10px;background:#fff;"> <br /><div style="width:100%;display:grid;grid-template-columns:1fr 2fr 1fr;grid-template-rows:100px 80px;gap:20px;"><br /><br /><br /><div style="transform: rotate(0);grid-column-start:1;grid-column-end:2;grid-row-start:1;grid-row-end:3;min-width:100px;margin-right:-10px;border-radius:50% 0 0 50%;border:5px solid #fff;background:#ccc url(&#39;https://i.pinimg.com/736x/72/6d/de/726dde645b98645a9d64d0daf663f409.jpg&#39;)center;background-size:cover;"></div><br /><br /><div style="transform: rotate(0);grid-column-start:2;grid-column-end:3;grid-row-start:1;grid-row-end:3;min-width:100px;margin:0 -15px;border:5px solid #fff;background:#ccc url(&#39;https://i.pinimg.com/736x/a2/2e/8e/a22e8e587bb425f7761817cd5f825dd8.jpg&#39;)center;background-size:cover;"></div><br /><br /><div style="transform: rotate(0);grid-column-start:3;grid-column-end:4;grid-row-start:1;grid-row-end:3;margin-left:-10px;border-radius:0 50% 50% 0;border:5px solid #fff;background:#ccc url(&#39;https://i.pinimg.com/736x/4d/a2/f4/4da2f4fda0d7d2096750e37e7945524d.jpg&#39;)center;background-size:cover;"></div><br /></div><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Whisperbloom Arbor</i></b></span><br /><ul>An ancient tangle of flowering vines and delicate archways found near the crest of Bellvine Hill. Nobody's quite sure of its origin, and the arbor is said to predate even the oldest Rosavellan records. The vines bloom year-round, their petals shifting softly in color with the seasons, and at night, faint whispers drift through the leaves. Some say it's the voices of past rulers, long-lost lovers, or maybe even the Everbloom itself. Others insist it's just the wind - and yet, many still visit with offerings of flowers, letters, or tokens of affection, in hopes that whatever magic keeps these old blooms alive might do a little something for their love life too<br /></ul><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Hearthhall Archive</i></b></span><br /><ul>Tucked behind a wrought-iron gate and hidden within a converted townhouse of ivy-draped balconies, the Hearthhall Archive is one of Bellvine Hill's best-kept secrets. This privately run library specializes in the day to day history of Rosavelle, archiving personal letters, handwritten journals and all sorts of writings done by Rosavellans of years gone by. Though small, the Archive is lovingly curated, and the caretakers are known to discreetly guide curious patrons toward entries that just might resonate with their own stories.</ul><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Printemps Boutique</i></b></span><br /><ul>A boutique specializing in high-end everyday clothing. The shopfront window always dazzles with new displays - gowns stitched with shifting patterns of morning dew, jackets embroidered with threads that glint like stained glass, scarves that unfurl into cascades of flower petals when twirled. The shop's proprietor, a flamboyant designer with a laugh as big as their heart, is known for encouraging customers to try on anything and everything - “clothing should make you fall in love, especially with yourself.”, apparently. Printemps is especially popular during festival seasons, when locals flock to commission bespoke ensembles, but it's also a welcoming space year-round for anyone looking to add a little magic to their wardrobe. Regulars claim it's impossible to leave without feeling at least a little more radiant.</ul><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Honeysuckle Inn</i></b></span><br /><ul>A modest but beloved bed-and-breakfast known for its cozy charm and floral touches. Each guest room is named after a different flower - Rose, Violet, Peony, Honeysuckle - with matching fresh blooms tucked into vases by the windowsills. The real draw, though, is the kitchen. According to at least one very insistent local (and several tourists who tend to agree), the inn serves the best blackberry tart in all of Rosavelle. Whether or not that's true, there's no denying it tastes sweeter when enjoyed on the ivy-wrapped terrace overlooking the sea.</ul><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>The Belltower</i></b></span><br /><ul>High up on the top of Bellvine Hill is a slender old tower wrapped in ivy and trumpet-shaped blooms. Once used to keep an eye on incoming ships, it's long since fallen out of formal use in favor of structures closer to the shore - its bell rusted, the spiral stairs creaky, and the lantern room empty. Locals whisper about the bell that sometimes tolls without warning: some insist that it heralds good fortune, while others claim a terrible omen - or all of the above, depending on who you're talking to. Skeptics, of course, blame the wind. It's a long held but ostensibly frowned upon tradition for teenagers to do ‘ghost walks' of the tower on the longest night of the year, but it's been almost a decade since anyone reached the lantern room on one...</ul><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Rosestone Apothecary</i></b></span><br /><ul>Known for their exacting standards and finely crafted remedies, Rosestone caters to nobles, wealthy merchants, and anyone with the coin for their expertise. The shelves are lined with polished glass bottles, fragrant herbal blends, and carefully labelled magical tinctures, all overseen by a team of skilled practitioners. Their bedside manner can be a little... chilly, but the results speak for themselves. They handle everything from curing common illnesses to crafting long-term wellness tonics and magical preventative care. For delicate matters - be it love spells gone wrong, stubborn curses, or discreet cosmetic enhancements - Rosestone's staff maintain strict confidentiality. If you're after something frivolous, their services can get pricey, but those in legitimately poor health or genuine need will always be seen for barely a penny.</ul><br /> <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Marquess Lyric Academy</i></b></span><br /><ul>Rosavelle's premier full-time school. Don't let the sweeping sea views and flower-draped balconies fool you - students here are expected to hit the books, whether they're memorizing the finer points of history, studying languages, or learning the basics of Bloomcraft. Originally founded by one of Rosavelle's old noble houses (hence the fancy name), the Academy has long since opened its doors to students from all walks of life. The facilities include airy classrooms, magical practice spaces, a greenhouse for beginner Bloomcraft, and courtyards perfect for both studying... or ditching class, depending on your priorities.</ul> </div></div> </div></div> <div style="max-width:650px;margin:0 auto;padding:2px 10px 5px;line-height:1;font-family:arial, helvetica, sans serif;font-size:10px;text-align:center;color:#ed9eb1;"><a title="by 10billionghosts" href="http://10billionghosts.dreamwidth.org" style="text-decoration:none;font-weight:bold;color:#ed9eb1;">(CODE)</a></div> <br /><br /><img src="https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=royaldecreemods&ditemid=2048" width="30" height="12" alt="comment count unavailable" style="vertical-align: middle;"/> comments https://royaldecreemods.dreamwidth.org/2048.html public 0 https://royaldecreemods.dreamwidth.org/1878.html Sun, 07 Sep 2025 11:41:48 GMT https://royaldecreemods.dreamwidth.org/1878.html <div style="max-width:950px;margin:10px auto;padding:15px;background:transparent;line-height:1.5;font-family:arial, helvetica, sans serif;font-size:14px;text-align:justify;border:5px solid #c8635d;color:#c8635d;"><div style="margin:0 auto;padding:7%;background:#c8635d url(&#39;https://images.plurk.com/7E1wZ8753xO3B59puUpFbh.png&#39;)center;"> <div style="margin:85px auto;"><div style="margin:0 auto;padding:3% 2% 0;line-height:.6;text-align:right;font-size:clamp(30px, 4vw, 60px);font-weight:700;color:#fff;background:#c8635d;">HIATUS & DROPS</div> <div style="margin:0 auto 25px;padding:10px;background:#fff;"> <ul>Need to take a quick break?

It's a fantasy island kingdom in the middle of a vast ocean, built up around a magical ancient tree known as the Everbloom. The kingdom's architecture leans bright and romantic in the aesthetic sense - think rococo-inspired buildings, floating markets, ornate bridges, and canals winding through the city. There's lots of magical day to day conveniences but no technology or internet. Most social life happens face-to-face, through letters, or magical messengers.<br /><br />Rosavelle is extremely community-focused. Neighbors know each other, mutual aid is a way of life, and people go out of their way to make newcomers feel welcome. The kingdom is peaceful but that doesn't mean it's totally free of magical mishaps, occasional mysteries, or small-scale conflict. <br /><br />You can find more details about the kingdom itself on the [Locations Page]!</ul><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>What the heck is the Everbloom?</i></b></span><br /><ul>The Everbloom is a magical, ancient tree nestled in a protected greenhouse on the castle grounds! It took root as the heart of the kingdom long ago and it's been quietly keeping Rosavelle magical, peaceful, and harmonious ever since. Its roots are nourished by love in all its forms, and in return, it radiates a gentle protective magic that allows the land to flourish.<br /><br />The royal family has always been its guardian, and the enchanted greenhouse was built to shelter it from harm. One of the Everbloom's most important roles is during the coronation of a new sovereign: its blossoms are woven into what's called a Coronation Crown - a living circlet that only blooms for a worthy ruler truly attuned to the Everbloom's power. Should a Coronation Crown's flowers blossom, the sovereign's reign will be a peaceful and joyous one. But if it wilts... uh, let's not worry about that right now...<br /><br />In short: ancient magical tree, loves love, makes crowns, very important. Please be nice to it.</ul><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>How did I get here?</i></b></span><br /><ul>You were invited! From your character's perspective, they were just living their life when a mysterious envelope arrived seemingly out of nowhere. Inside? A letter from Princess Calanthe explaining their situation, their need for help, and a request for them to come and visit Rosavelle. There's no time limit on the invitation so characters are free to ponder over it for as long as they need. Ultimately, the moment they agree, they'll find themselves whisked away, arriving in the Everbloom's greenhouse - the heart of Rosavelle's magic.<br /><br /><b>Characters do need to say yes to Callie's invitation</b>, but how that "yes" looks is totally up to you. Whether they're enthusiastically on board, deeply skeptical, or just curious enough to humor it, as long as they basically intend to engage once they arrive in Rosavelle, they're good to go. If you'd like to app a character but are wrestling with how to get their "yes," feel free to ask fellow applicants or the mods for ideas!</ul><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>What happens when my character arrives in Rosavelle? What will their first few hours in the kingdom look like?</i></b></span><br /><ul>New arrivals are brought to Rosavelle through the Everbloom's Greenhouse, usually with their invitation still in hand. A small team of castle attendants keeps watch there specifically for this purpose and will be quick to greet you, make sure you're steady on your feet, and answer any immediate questions. From there, you'll be escorted on a brief orientation through the castle, including short introductions to Princess Calanthe and Nadeshiko, before being shown to the barracks aligned with your Bloom Bond flower.<br /><br />OOCly, you're free to play out your arrival as part of your introduction if you'd like, or simply assume it's already happened and jump straight into your character being mostly settled in Rosavelle.</ul><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>What kind of magic exists in Rosavelle?</i></b></span><br /><ul>Rosavelle runs on Bloomcraft - the kingdom's local magic tied to the Everbloom itself. Everyone brought here can access it, even if they couldn't use magic back home. You'll see people using Bloomcraft in everyday life: cooking, tending gardens, decorating spaces, or expressing themselves. That said, flashy magic that disrupts public spaces or endangers others will get you funny looks (and probably a chat with local officials).<br /><br />For more info on Bloomcraft, roll over to the <a href="https://royaldecreemods.dreamwidth.org/3828.html">relevant page</a>!</ul><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Can I leave if I want to?</i></b></span><br /><ul>Of course! Nobody's trapped here. Callie will willingly send characters home if they ask... though of course you went through the trouble of writing an app so hopefully that won't happen right away. They'll retain all their memories of the trip and Callie will even send them home with their invite in hand so they can come back if they ever change their mind.<br /><br />If your character is the type that would generally elect to leave immediately, but you do believe they could mesh with the setting given time, they are still free to ask to go home and Callie will certainly do their best to make it happen...! Except, maybe there's some kind of magical interference and Callie can't send them back <i>right now.</i> Or maybe a character totally means to ask to go home but they conveniently forget whenever they happen to see Callie.<br /><br />Basically, we want to emphasize that <b>characters are not being held in Rosavelle against their will</b> so whatever silliness needs to be contrived to make sure someone sticks around is A-OK by us.</ul><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Can my character leave Rosavelle to explore the mainland or other islands?</i></b></span><br /><ul>In-character, yes - no one's going to chain your character to the docks if they feel like wandering off. Rosavelle is part of a wider world, and it makes perfect sense that characters might be curious about what lies beyond the canals and shores.<br /><br />Out of character, though, that's outside the scope of the game. The mods aren't able (or inclined!) to support mainland adventures or seafaring plotlines, so we politely ask that your characters conveniently refrain from developing any serious nautical ambitions.</ul><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>What if my character agreed but they're a grouch/a hater/etc.?</i></b></span><br /><ul>They're still welcome, but characters who completely refuse to engage with the world, relationships, or the setting will struggle. This is a social, relationship-focused game. You don't have to play a sunshine-and-rainbows character, but they should be able to function socially (even if it's begrudgingly) or otherwise be drawn out of their shell.</ul><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>What happens to my character's world while they're here?</i></b></span><br /><ul>Not a thing! Don't worry about it. Callie will give a long, wretchedly boring and technical explanation if prompted but the gist of it is that as far as the cast is concerned, their home world is paused, unaffected, or otherwise "on hold" while they're here. Since characters' homes are frozen, this also means that <b>you cannot canon update</b> while playing in the game - though you are free to update your canon point if you happen to drop and then later re-app.<br /><br />Whether this affects their aging while they're here in Rosavelle... is entirely up to you! :3</ul><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Does my character keep their abilities/items from home?</i></b></span><br /><ul>Yes, within reason! Your character keeps their existing skills and abilities, with a few exceptions for balance (game/setting breaking powers will be nerfed as needed). Even if they couldn't use magic back home, the Everbloom connects everyone to Bloomcraft, so they'll be able to learn local magic too.<br /><br />As for items, characters will arrive with the clothes they had on their back and carrying whatever they happened to have on-hand when they got their invite. As with powers, magical items are case-by-case - expect some gentle nerfing if they break the setting.</ul><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Where do characters live when they arrive?</i></b></span><br /><ul>Callie has been polite enough to set everyone up for free in the barracks on castle grounds! They'll be attended to by housekeepers and castle staff like any other guest of the royal family, even down to being served meals and snacks as often as they please. How fancy...!<br /><br />Players can upgrade or customize their living spaces through <a href="https://royaldecreemods.dreamwidth.org/2828.html">Bonus Thread rewards</a> and if they'd like, they can even have their characters move out of the castle grounds and into Rosavelle itself where housing ranges from cozy apartments to small canal-side houses and even small manors if you've very lucky. Check out the Housing section of the rewards for more info!</ul><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>How does money work here?</i></b></span><br /><ul>Money here functions more or less recognisably as it does in most characters' worlds, though Rosavelle thankfully has a much smaller disparity of class and nobody lives in poverty.<br /><br />Rosavelle uses a simple two-tier currency: <b>Crowns and Pieces</b>, with 100 Pieces to a Crown. Daily necessities cost around 20 Crowns, and most citizens earn about 20,000 Crowns a year. Crowns handle everyday purchases, while Pieces cover small expenses. Anything beyond comfort - like fine dining (50 - 100 Crowns), magical services, or custom imports - will be priced accordingly. Wealthy citizens, especially those in Bellvine Hill, often earn 50,000+ Crowns annually.<br /><br />Players are trusted to manage their characters' funds themselves without having to nickel and dime every detail but the mods reserve the right to step in if you start getting a bit silly with it and make your character a millionaire overnight.</ul><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Can my character get a job, run a business, or volunteer in town?</i></b></span><br /><ul>Absolutely! In fact, it's highly encouraged - getting involved in Rosavelle's community is one of the best ways for characters to build connections and leave their mark on the island. Day-to-day living expenses are already covered by Princess Calanthe (technically you're on the royal payroll just by being here), so no one has to worry about basic needs. But if your character wants a little extra pocket money, they're more than welcome to pick up a job, open a shop, or lend their talents as a volunteer around town.<br /><br />Characters who are less career-minded and more academically inclined are also free to attend Rosavelle's local schools and education facilities, whether to pursue a particular field of study, or simply enjoy the experience of learning in a new place.<br /></ul><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Can characters get hurt or die in Rosavelle?</i></b></span><br /><ul>Rosavelle is a much safer place than many characters' home worlds - thanks to magic, healing is swift, and healthcare is top-tier. That said, it's not completely babyproofed. Bumps, scrapes, magical mishaps, and the occasional dramatic injury can happen if you really want - we see you, hurt/comfort girlies <small>(it's us, we are the hurt/comfort girlies)</small><br /><br />However, when it comes to character death: while nothing in-universe outright prevents it, we ask that players <b>not pursue death plots</b>. Royal Decree isn't a setting where death is meant to be on the table, and even in the case of a player wanting to kill off their own character, the answer from the mod team would respectfully be a no.</ul><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Since this is a game about romance and long-term relationships, can pregnancy happen in Rosavelle?</i></b></span><br /><ul>In-character? Sure - there's nothing in the setting preventing it, and biologically speaking, things work about the same here as they do in most worlds.<br /><br />Out-of-character, we don't allow pregnancy plots. Thankfully, Rosavelle is very progressive on the healthcare front. Magical and non-magical contraceptives are freely and easily available throughout the kingdom, so if it ever comes up, feel free to handwave that your character is taking advantage of those resources.</ul> </div></div> </div></div> <div style="max-width:650px;margin:0 auto;padding:2px 10px 5px;line-height:1;font-family:arial, helvetica, sans serif;font-size:10px;text-align:center;color:#ed9eb1;"><a title="by 10billionghosts" href="http://10billionghosts.dreamwidth.org" style="text-decoration:none;font-weight:bold;color:#ed9eb1;">(CODE)</a></div> <br /><br /><img src="https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=royaldecreemods&ditemid=937" width="30" height="12" alt="comment count unavailable" style="vertical-align: middle;"/> comments https://royaldecreemods.dreamwidth.org/937.html public 26 https://royaldecreemods.dreamwidth.org/664.html Fri, 27 Jun 2025 23:01:30 GMT https://royaldecreemods.dreamwidth.org/664.html <div style="max-width:950px;margin:10px auto;padding:15px;background:transparent;line-height:1.5;font-family:arial, helvetica, sans serif;font-size:14px;text-align:justify;border:5px solid #c8635d;color:#c8635d;"><div style="margin:0 auto;padding:7%;background:#c8635d url(&#39;https://images.plurk.com/7E1wZ8753xO3B59puUpFbh.png&#39;)center;"> <div style="margin:85px auto;"><div style="margin:0 auto;padding:3% 2% 0;line-height:.6;text-align:right;font-size:clamp(30px, 4vw, 60px);font-weight:700;color:#fff;background:#c8635d;">PREMISE</div> <div style="margin:0 auto 25px;padding:10px;background:#fff;"> <b>Royal Decree: Let There Be Love!</b> <i>(Royal Decree for short)</i> is a <b>panfandom, invite-only fixed-length game</b>. It is a <b>comm-based game</b> with a set schedule and an estimated length of <b>12 to 14 months.</b> The game is focused on <b>relationship-building in a fantasy setting</b>, in which characters are ICly and OOCly encouraged to foster romance and close relationships.<br /><br />Characters are invited to the magical realm of Rosavelle by its princess, Their Most Exquisitely Blossoming Calanthe Rosabella Petalia de Amoré (their friends call them Callie!) (they don’t have any friends). Their coronation is on the horizon and soon, Calanthe will be tested by the Everbloom, a magnificent ancient tree at the heart of the kingdom that allows magic to flow freely through the land.<br /><br />But there's just one problem... this princess of love has never had so much as a crush in their life! Eek!<br /><br />Determined to find a way to resolve this before the big day, Calanthe does what any sensible royal would do - summon a bunch of strangers from across the multiverse to be their new best friends and royal advisors on love! Freshly isekaied into this lovey-dovey paradise, the princess’s new advisors have been given free housing, fancy titles, and one simple(ish) mission: help Calanthe understand what love is. As you settle into Rosavelle, you’ll help shape the kingdom, embark on magical (and mildly ridiculous) adventures, and maybe even find a little love of your own along the way. <br /><br />The fate of Rosavelle - and Calanthe's heart - rests in your hands.

Players may explore and setting and get into hijinks and there will be moments of heightened drama and stakes, but the overall focus of the game should be on character relationships and emotional stakes over any sort of big scary existential threat.<br /><br />The game will run on a <b>bimonthly schedule</b>, and asks players to provide <b>approximately 15 comments per month</b> of activity, with AC being processed at the end of each two month period. Each AC period will be called a <b>Season</b>, following the in-universe phases of Calyx, Rosavelle’s moon equivalent;<br /><br /><b>Fallow</b> (New Moon), <b>Season of Budding, Season of Ripening, Season of Flourish, Full Bloom</b> (Full Moon), <b>Season of Wilting</b><br /><br />The game will start at the beginning of the <b>Season of Wilting</b> and endgame will take place at the end of <b>Full Bloom</b>, when Calanthe’s coronation takes place. A second Season of Wilting may also take place as an optional epilogue if player interest/activity permits.<br /><br />At the start of each season, a <b>Seasonal Update</b> will go live. Seasonal Updates combine OOC intro/CR plotting posts with event previews, world events and weather updates and AC results. Each Season will have its own small-scale goal to achieve or event to participate in but players will also have the freedom to pursue their own explorations of the settings and general shennaniganery as they please.<br /><br />In addition to the seasonal events, starting from <b>Fallow</b>, there will be a <b>quest board</b> for players to pursue as optional sidequests as well. Some will be permanent and some will be time-limited with effects on the world (positive and negative) depending on whether or not players complete them in time. Each Seasonal Update will refresh the quest board. Quests can only be undertaken by 2+ characters at a time and are intended to provide opportunities for characters to bond, form rapports and generally grow closer.<br /><br />Quests may provide some small IC reward but will also reward <b>points</b>. Points can be spent on various IC rewards (primarily upgrading/expanding player housing currently). Since magic is extremely commonplace, characters will also have the ability to learn magic in the game setting, which is also done via point rewards.<br /><br />In addition to quests, players have the option of submitting threads that meet certain criteria as <b>bonus threads</b>. Rather than comment count (though there is a comment minimum for bonus threads), awards are granted based on thread content. Some are one-off rewards and some are recurring. The intent is to encourage players to continue branching out and building CR even once/if they have established a ship. </div></div> <div style="margin:85px auto;"><div style="margin:0 auto;padding:3% 2% 0;line-height:.6;text-align:right;font-size:clamp(30px, 4vw, 60px);font-weight:700;color:#fff;background:#c8635d;">RULES & CONSIDERATIONS</div> <div style="margin:0 auto 25px;padding:10px;background:#fff;"> <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Expected Player Conduct</i></b></span><br /><ul>The one and only rule of RD is basically just a lot of things boiled down into one simple phrase: <b>Don't Be An Asshole.</b> We expect a base level of civility from and for everyone in the game. Treat your fellow players and mods with the same level of courtesy and respect you'd like to receive in return. If we find players to be contributing to an unsafe or unpleasant atmosphere in the game, the mod team will issue warnings and bans as and when necessary.<br /><br />In terms of RP, players are expected to keep basic rules of etiquette in mind and refrain from godmodding, infomodding, and blurring IC/OOC boundaries, and otherwise avoid making other people's time in the game unpleasant. Act in good faith and make an effort to stay engaged and active, particularly if you intend to play a character who becomes involved in the metaplot.<br /><br />Due to the game's premise, we place a high emphasis on respecting boundaries regarding ships (and other close knit CR). Be aware of and respect the stated preferences of your fellow players and be willing to communicate your own straightforwardly. If a player isn't interested in a ship or dynamic, that choice must be respected and no one should feel pressured into interactions they're uncomfortable with. <b>Ship-pushing is not acceptable.</b> In addition, while romance is central to the setting, development of platonic love is just as important to the overall themes of the game. No one is expected to prioritize shipping over other forms of character development.<br /><br />Also this probably goes without saying but we're all grown-ups here and this is a shippy game, so we expect you to be normal about sex and sexuality please i'm on my hands and knees here<br /><br />Players are encouraged to try and resolve small-scale disagreements between themselves, but please don't hesitate to come to the mods if you find yourself in a situation you need some intervention in. We're always here to help!</ul><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Expected Content & Tone</i></b></span><br /><ul>While relationship drama is the spice of any good romcom, Royal Decree is meant to be light-hearted and fun. While shipping part of the central premise, the game also encourages platonic bonds and rewards players who pursue them. Still, romance is the primary focus, and players should be down to engage with it as a core element. If Wifeguy McLovesHisWife would never consider any lover but his wife, or if Lonerchick Solitudus would avoid the cast entirely, they will be poor fits for the game. We love a good grouch but characters should be chosen with a willingness to engage the premise and other players in mind.<br /><br />That doesn't mean everything has to be fluffy and conflict-free - quite the opposite! Characters with baggage and emotional hangups are absolutely welcome, and we encourage players to engage in whatever kinds of relationship drama - romantic or platonic - is engaging for them. However, we also expect that <b>players be comfortable with the idea that actions have consequences</b>. If your character plays with hearts, breaks trust, or otherwise stirs the pot, IC backlash may follow. That's part of the fun! But just as importantly, it should remain IC. We expect players to <b>separate character conflict from player interaction</b> and to handle negative CR (within reason) as part of the game <b>rather than something to avoid or shut down.</b><br /><br />Please also be aware that <b>no one is guaranteed a ship</b>. While the game provides many opportunities for characters to form romantic connections, there is still the potential that any given character just might not have a good match in the cast. If potentially missing out on a ship would be upsetting or frustrating or otherwise make the game unfun for you, RD may not be the game for you. That said, don’t be afraid to plot and reach out to your fellow players to build those connections! We’re confident there will likely be something for everyone.<br /><br />Currently, there are <b>no expectations of potentially triggering or upsetting content</b>. Given the premise, themes of sex and sexuality will be common in both IC and OOC discussions, and players are expected to be able to navigate them respectfully. Royal Decree is not a sex game, but players are permitted to post R18 content on the game comms as long as it is properly tagged and warned for. In instances where an otherwise above-board thread goes in a spicy direction, be sure to indicate as such in subject headers for all the brave soldiers who are tagging at work. While not required, locking such content to community members is suggested.<br /><br />Finally, the nature of a panfandom game may mean that there will be potentially disturbing material from other canons introduced to the game setting from time to time. We don't intend to excessively restrict what players can explore, but we do expect everyone to tag appropriately and give fair warning when upsetting content is present in threads or logs. You know what's in your thread better than anyone - please use your discretion, be thoughtful, and help create an environment where people can engage safely with the game at their own pace. In keeping with this, we ask that players have up-to-date permissions and opt out posts as part of their application housekeeping. Logs and events will include content warnings where appropriate, and no player will be required to engage with aspects of the game they're uncomfortable with.</ul><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Mod Timezones & Availability</i></b></span><br /><ul>Mod Claire (she/they/it) is GMT/BST depending on the time of year and usually available midday through to evenings. Modwork will be done as and when needed during the week and you can always hit me up for questions and assistance!<br /><br />Mods Lu, Nikki, Nao and Ashley help me with running the game to varying capacities!</ul><br /> </div></div> <div style="margin:85px auto;"><div style="margin:0 auto;padding:3% 2% 0;line-height:.6;text-align:right;font-size:clamp(30px, 4vw, 60px);font-weight:700;color:#fff;background:#c8635d;">INVITES & APPS</div> <div style="margin:0 auto 25px;padding:10px;background:#fff;"> <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Who can I app to Royal Decree?</i></b></span><br /><ul>Royal Decree accepts characters from all types of canons and mediums. We accept characters of all ages, though we have a lower age cap of of <b>sixteen</b>. Before you app you’ll need an invitation, though we won’t need to jump through too many hoops to get one, we prommy.<br /><br />Characters who require large amounts of headcanon to be playable may be apped but will be judged on a case by case basis. Fictionalized versions of real people will also be judged on a case by case basis – as a rule of thumb, something like Fate or Eternal Sonata is fine but something like a VTuber or The Nostalgia Critic is not.<br /><br />Silent and customizable protagonists may be apped to RD. Original characters and PCs from tabletop campaigns are also appable.<br /><br />At this time, Royal Decree does <b>not</b> accept:<br /><br /><ul>❤ CRAUs<br />❤ Characters without a mostly human level of sapience and/or ability to communicate<br />❤ Characters without the ability to give informed consent<br />❤ Characters from canons that are exclusively sexual/pornographic<br />❤ Characters from canons that lack any English translation (official or otherwise)</ul><br />Once again, we also ask that players keep overall suitability and appropriateness for the setting and tone of the game in mind when considering potential characters. Characters who are completely uninterested in socializing or becoming involved in the IC community would be a poor fit for the game overall. In addition, characters who are overly abrasive, excessively antisocial and unwilling to change and/or hellbent on violence and mayhem with no ability to function day-to-day in the game setting will likely be rejected. Your character does not have to be all sparkles and sunshine but they should be able to make small talk at the grocery store without telling the clerk to go fuck themselves.<br /><br />Finally, characters intent on bigotry, racism, homophobia, transphobia, misgendendering of trans/nonbinary characters in-game or other such instances of yikes behaviour will not be accepted to Royal Decree.</ul><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Are there any kinds of cast caps/player caps/etc?</i></b></span><br /><ul>There are indeed! We have an overall cap of <b>fifty players</b> in game at any given time. None of the mods count towards this cap, regardless of whether they have a character in game or not. Players can each play <b>two characters</b> in Royal Decree at once, meaning that we have a maximum cap of <b>one hundred characters</b> in game at any time.<br /><br />Due to our overall player cap, we also have a cap on canons. Individual canons are capped at three characters while franchises have an overall cap of five - i.e, the cast could contain three characters from Final Fantasy 15 and one character from Final Fantasy 9, but not four characters from Final Fantasy 9.</ul><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>My character is a robot/ghost/weird nonhuman edge case! Can I still app?</i></b></span><br /><ul>Of course! Even sentient haunted vending machines deserve love. <br /><br />Characters who fall into the nonhuman oddity category - ghosts, AIs, androids, cursed swords, you name it - are absolutely appable, as long as they meet our general standards for sapience, ability to consent, and communicative ability. We do not require characters to be forcibly humanized to participate. That said, if your character needs help getting around, Callie will happily make them some kind of temporary flesh suit or other tangible vessel to let them interact with the world.<br /><br />Just keep in mind: depending on your character's nature, they may be a little less compatible romance-wise with the rest of the cast. That doesn't mean you can't app them, just that the onus is on you to be cool with the possibility that your gelatinous alien cloud may not get as many suitors as the tortured anime pretty boy with a sad past and a nice booty. We here at Royal Decree Industries believe there's someone for everyone, but sometimes that someone might just want to be friends, and that's okay too.</ul><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>My character is severely injured or dead! Can I still app?</i></b></span><br /><ul>Absolutely - within reason!<br /><br />Injured characters are welcome, so long as you're okay with them being immediately whisked off for medical treatment upon arrival. Rosavelle has very efficient (and very enthusiastic) healers who will patch them up in record time. That said, for tonal reasons, we ask that you avoid apping from canon points where your character is, say, actively being disemboweled, spurting blood like a faucet or otherwise in a state better suited for a horror movie than a romcom.<br /><br />Dead characters, however, are a no-go, sorry! To enter the game, characters need to be able to receive their invitation and agree to come to Rosavelle - two things that corpses are notoriously bad at. Callie's magic is impressive, but they're not in the resurrection business.</ul><br /><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Okay, I'm sold. What’s the app process?</i></b></span><br /><ul>Reserves open on the 15th of every month and remain open for one week. A reserve is required to submit an app to Royal Decree - it counts as your invite, so don't skip it! <br /><br />When placing your reserve, be sure to note who invited you. If you're on the Plurk list of one of our mods, congrats! You're already good to go.<br /><br />We also accept plus ones! That means if you're not directly connected to the mod team but are mutuals with someone who is, you're welcome to list them as your referral. Please keep in mind that plus ones are accepted at mod discretion, and we may reach out to confirm with the player referring you.<br /><br />If you're not connected to any current players or mods, you can still submit a reserve with a note in the invite section that you are requesting an invite from the mods. These are also granted on a case-by-case basis.<br /><br />Please keep in mind that reserves <b>are not</b> first come, first served, and placing one <b>does not</b> guarantee you an invite. Not getting picked isn't any kind of personal judgement - sometimes it comes down to maintaining cast balance or any number of behind-the-scenes considerations. We reserve the right to accept or decline reserves at our discretion, and we ask that you trust we're making those calls in good faith.<br /><br />If you don't receive an invite, please don't take it personally! Shake it off, maybe try again another round. That said, if someone decides to throw a fit or make it messy, we reserve the right to permanently refuse them entry to the game.<br /><br />Once reserves close, apps open up and remain open until midnight on the final day of the month. Apps are reviewed on a rolling basis, so you won't have to wait until the deadline to hear back.<br /><br />Past the first app round, characters may begin posting immediately upon acceptance and completion of their intro housekeeping - there may be a little IC meme or low-stakes event post to help onboard your character but if you’d rather just jump in and get playing, you’re free to just start posting without having to wait!</ul><br /><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>How do I drop from the game? Can I re-app if I do?</i></b></span><br /><ul>Just submit a drop request on the appropriate page. That's it! No drama, no stress. From there, you have a few IC options for how your character's departure plays out:<br /><br /><ul>❤ Your character can choose to ask Callie to send them home. This option allows for characters to properly plan their departure and say their goodbyes to everyone before leaving.<br />❤ Your character may simply disappear. In this case, Callie will inform others that it was an unexpected side effect of the summoning magic - but everyone can rest assured they made it home safely.<br />❤ Your character can remain in the setting as an NPC. You won't be actively playing them, but they'll still exist in the background. This option is best reserved for when you're planning to return in the near future - please don't leave your CR in limbo unless you're sure you'll be back!</ul><br />If you've dropped from the game and are ready to bring your character back, just comment on the app page during the current app cycle. Link to your previous app and include a short note about how you'd like your character to re-enter the setting and once you get the mod okay, you're good to go!</ul><br /><br /> </div></div> <div style="margin:85px auto;"><div style="margin:0 auto;padding:3% 2% 0;line-height:.6;text-align:right;font-size:clamp(30px, 4vw, 60px);font-weight:700;color:#fff;background:#c8635d;">PACE, ACTIVITY & HIATUSES</div> <div style="margin:0 auto 25px;padding:10px;background:#fff;"> <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>How does activity check work in Royal Decree?</i></b></span><br /><ul>Royal Decree runs on a bimonthly AC schedule, meaning that AC is processed once every two months - or at the end of each Season, whichever is easier to remember. At any time during those two months, you can submit your AC over on the <a href="https://royaldecreemods.dreamwidth.org/4767.html">Permanent Activity Page.</a> AC is processed on the first day of a new Season and results will be posted alongside the corresponding Seasonal Post.<br /><br />RD's activity requirements are <b>one thread per month</b> with at least 7 comments from your character per thread, totaling <b>30 overall comments for the two-month period.</b> We also ask that your threads are with <b>two different characters.</b><br /><br />In addition to threads, we also ask that you include a brief write-up about what your character's been up to - what they've been doing, how their relationships have developed, the state of their <a href="https://royaldecreemods.dreamwidth.org/2613.html">Bloom Bond</a>, anything you'd like us to know! It doesn't need to be an essay, just enough to give the mod team a sense of how your character's flowerbed is blooming (both literally and figuratively).</ul><br /><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>What happens if I can't pass AC?</i></b></span><br /><ul>If a character doesn't meet the activity requirements, they'll receive a strike. Strikes can be cleared by submitting activity by the end of the month. However, if a strike isn't cleared by the midpoint of the current Season, that character will be swept from the game.<br /><br />While RD's AC is relatively relaxed and the mods are open to accommodate players who are struggling due to real life or circumstances otherwise out of their control, if a player is found to be <i>consistently</i> taking strikes and scraping by on minimum AC, the mod team reserves the right to discuss the state of their activity with said player and, in extreme cases, remove them from the game.</ul><br /><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>I need a break! How do I go on hiatus?</i></b></span><br /><ul>If you need to go on hiatus, simply contact the mods via the hiatus page and let them know that you need a break from the game. Provide an estimate on how long you will be away and when you expect to return and you will be given a pass on your activity until your hiatus expires. While on hiatus you are, of course, free to keep playing your character and tag around in RD – if you are totally stepping back from the game for your hiatus period, it will be assumed your character is on autopilot unless other plans are made. Usually the IC reason for this will be that Callie requested their assistance with something and your character has been hard at work with whatever task Callie set them to - but if you have your own idea for this, feel free to let us know!<br /><br />Currently, we allow players to hiatus for one AC period at a time. We ask that players who expect to be absent from the game for 3+ months with no estimated return date consider dropping and reapping when they are in a better position to play.</ul> </div></div> </div></div> <div style="max-width:650px;margin:0 auto;padding:2px 10px 5px;line-height:1;font-family:arial, helvetica, sans serif;font-size:10px;text-align:center;color:#ed9eb1;"><a title="by 10billionghosts" href="http://10billionghosts.dreamwidth.org" style="text-decoration:none;font-weight:bold;color:#ed9eb1;">(CODE)</a></div> <br /><br /><img src="https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=royaldecreemods&ditemid=664" width="30" height="12" alt="comment count unavailable" style="vertical-align: middle;"/> comments https://royaldecreemods.dreamwidth.org/664.html faq public 64
