FOREWORD Hello, hello!~ (◍˃̶ᗜ˂̶◍)ﾉ” This is your resident delinquent-slash-occultist-slash-Satan's spawn-slash-shady merchant @iampsyx! (｡•̀ᴗ-)✧ Together with my lovely, wonderful, amazing, uber-talented and awesome niece-slash-Shipper Apprentice Sister @Pyoo, we are co-modding the first round of Kingdom Royale: Succession War! *cue audience applause bgm* \o/ As a variation of the normal KR game, SW's got different roles and abilities from the usual King-Prince-Sorc-Knight-Rev-Double formula. For starters, we've got a Queen, two Sorcerers and three Princes! ╰(✧∇✧) The standard rules still apply, though, but I'll explain all these details later on~ STORYAhem, ahem. There was once a monarch of a certain kingdom who died from natural causes in quite unnatural circumstances, namely, the issue of an empty throne, four heirs, and a blank parchment for a will. Now, in normal stories there'd be assassinations, back-door dealings, conspiracies, wars, and what-have-you, but a merciful and compassionate outsider observed in-between mouthfuls of popcorn that it was the ordinary citizens who suffered the most in power struggles. Thus, this lovely, lovely person kidnapped these four heirs plus the monarch's two most-trusted subordinates, dropped them in a castle in the middle of an isolated island, and let them sort out their issues once and for all without inflicting more damage to the kingdom out of the goodness of her big and gracious heart. But of course, some rules are needed because it wouldn't be fun fair otherwise, which are: 1. No talking game-related things outside the game thread (pms, comments, etc.) 2. Direct any queries to the GMs (@iampsyx or @Pyoo) 3. Inform the GMs if player cannot continue playing GAME MECHANICS1. One cycle consists of a [Day Phase] and a [Night Phase], both lasting 24 hours each. [DAY PHASE] ACTIONS: - Talk in the game thread - If player has a knife (given 1 per cycle), can stab somebody else (announced to everybody). If opponent has a knife (has not stabbed anybody yet) when stabbed by the player, opponent defends and damage dealt is 1 HP. If opponent has no knife (has stabbed somebody earlier), damage dealt is 2 HP. After stabbing, player loses his/her knife and will not be able to defend against any attacks. - Choose 1 player for night chatroom either in role pm (private aka everybody else will not know) or game thread (public aka everyone will know). All night chatroom pairings will be announced in the game thread at the end of the [Day Phase] whether it was sent privately or publicly. [NIGHT PHASE] ACTIONS: - No talking in the game thread - Talk to chosen partner in the night chatroom pm. If player has a knife, can stab partner (not announced to people not in pm). Regardless whether partner/opponent has a knife or not, defense mechanism will no longer be active and damage dealt will be 2 HP. - [Queen] gives murder order. - [Dark Sorcerer] & [Sorcerer] receives murder order. - [Sorcerer] accepts or rejects murder order. - Princes use one of their abilities. If [spy] was chosen, will receive the target's pm posts (target's chatroom partner's pm posts not included) right before the [Night Phase] ends. 2. All players will have 5 HP at the beginning of the game. If stabbed, will regenerate 1 HP at the start of the next [Day Phase] with additional rules: If 3 players die OR 3 cycles pass, regeneration stops. If 3 players die AND 3 cycles pass, all remaining player's HP decreases by 1. ROLES(1) Queen - the monarch's young and ambitious spouse. Married the monarch a year after the previous royal consort died. Parent of the Delinquent Prince. Abilities: [Murder] - Select a player to be killed.

If the order is accepted, the target dies at the end of the [Night Phase].
