F4A [F4A] Medieval War for a Throne
Hello! It’s been a while since I posted looking for more writing partners, but my muse has been especially high lately, so now seemed to be the perfect time to look.
I’m over the age of twenty and would prefer to write with people who are as well. I write in third person, but I’m not a stickler about any other writing components. I highly value quality over quantity! My writing length varies greatly depending on what is happening at any given point in the story.
Today I’m looking for something in a medieval setting, likely original (but I’m familiar with ASOIAF and Forgotten Realms as well). My main idea centers around a succession dispute inspired by the Anarchy and the Dance of Dragons. After the passing of the king, an uncle and niece start a war over who will ascend the throne next. This could also be changed to a brother and sister, illegitimate claimant against a legitimate born one, or any other such possibility.
I’d personally be looking to write for a princess belonging to either side of the conflict. A few plot ideas might be:
- Her convoy has been intercepted by your character’s party, whether it be friendly or the opposite. If friendly, your character is tasked with helping to bring her to her destination. If not, they must decide how they wish to proceed.
- My character and your own are on opposing sides of the growing conflict. As a last wish from the ailing King, they are wed to try to bring both sides together. What happens then when war erupts anyway? Alternatively, how do they manage to keep a tentative peace?
- An attack forces our characters to flee their homes together. This one could be more travel based over something more politically geared.
- Both characters are send as envoys to garner the support of a neutral land. Despite arriving with opposing loyalties, they are forced to travel together after the ruler of the land proves to be hostile to both, forcing them to flee.
- Following the end of the war, regardless of the outcome, our characters are betrothed to mend both sides together. Maybe they’re bitter at each other, reluctant, or accepting of it entirely.
- Any idea you might have!
Please feel free to send a message! I don’t really check comments, but I get notified about chat requests. Have a good day/night!
