The Brides of the Flower God​

Hundreds of years ago, the gods ascended to the stars. However, a few remained, revered by humanity. Magnificent temples were built for them, where they dwelled lavishly, surrounded only by their temple priests or maidens. One such god was Ambrosios — often called the god of flowers, despite his many domains. Every 100 years, Ambrosios takes a new wife. Provinces far and wide send hopeful candidates to his temple. Many are immediately sent back, judged unworthy by the temple priests. The remaining few are granted the honour of shrine maiden, where they are able to display their talents and worth, earning opportunities to bond with Ambrosios, with one eventually becoming his bride.

Players will play as the prospective brides, each from a different province. Provinces are autonomous and akin to small countries.

Rules, or whatnot
1. This roleplay involves pitting player characters against each other. Whether your characters make friends or enemies is up to you — but there can only be one Bride. Please don't join unless you're sure IC drama won't get to you OOC.
2. Don't be a dick. Don't god mode or metagame. Don't make me regret this. :D
3. Aesthetically, this roleplay is taking inspiration from Ancient Greece. But it is first and foremost a fantasy roleplay set in a fantasy world, so there is plenty of room to make unique characters/provinces. Technology levels need to stay within the realm of Antiquity, however.

Character List​
It's empty! D:

The World​
The year is spring of 500, as marked from the day when the gods ascended to the stars. The location is the Temple of Ambrosios, located in the province of Kettadae, a small, diverse province adjacent to the sea. Kettadae boasts farmlands, orchards, and rolling hills. And fortune smiles down upon the people, where the harvests are always bountiful and the sea always full of fish.

Ambrosios​
Like all gods, Ambrosios is an enigma. The only people who have contact with him directly are the shrine priests and maidens, who perform a wide variety of duties for him. An exception is his festival, held every ten years, where he is paraded around for the people, with a second exception being his weddings, which are grand affairs. Often called the God of Flowers for his strong connection to wildflowers and particularly hyacinths, he however has many domains. Weather, the flow of fresh water, the growth of wild plants, disease, and fate and fortune, being primary ones. While a variety of sacrifices are made to him, his favoured ones are fresh fruits, wine, and jewellery. He is not fond of live sacrifices.

No questions but this is definitely appealing and an interesting concept that I find appealing.

By Invitation Only means that the roleplay is only accepting people who have been specifically invited. If I end up opening it up to other players, I will be sure to let you know.
