SNS Petr V: It isn't kidnapping, if it's reassignment! audible sighs and facepalming from the rest of Task Force F, also known as the Nine-Tailed Foxes
Aight, makes sense. But don't think you can escape scot-free from this. What happens when Calliope gets exposed to that shard is what happens to anything getting exposed to it. Though honestly, pure Ursian wrath combined with some sort of intelligence and crammed into the size of a person sounds terrifying.
OOC: To prevent confusion with the reigning king, the SNS Charles XIII will be renamed to either Regina Carolina, Frederick IX, Henri X, or Nikolai IV.
So...a little worldbuilding about each name: - Regina Carolina was the crown princess of Sakiria from 1220-1250, with Henri IV as regent. Regina Carolina was born as Carolina Athenas I of Aren in Hetze on April 3, 1200. During her childhood, her old father Henri IV would serve as regent. Young Carolina did not enjoy typical things of her age, like wearing dresses and drinking tea. This was a girl, who loved hunting in the forest and playing swordfight with the boys. As the years went by, Carolina matured into a fine young woman as her father slowly began to succumb to dementia. However as her father was unable to sanely abdicate the crown, Carolina was forced to rule behind her father's back. Seeing this perceived weakness, the other kingdoms of Sakiria were more than ready to chew up poor Aren. After all, what can a princess and her sickly father do? But Carolina was no ordinary princess. She did not drink, she was not gullible, and she did not sleep around. She was infact a skilled (if naïve) reformer of her kingdom. But most of all, this was a woman who had trained and disciplined herself and her kingdom for one thing: war. The kingdom of Aren suddenly became aggressive despite 'supposedly' having a passive ruler, as the northern kingdom began to take province after province with brute force. First, Carolina aimed for her neighboring provinces. Ënne, Nortevänd, and Okhotnotan fell without much resistance. The Kingdoms of Cesar and Pallata looked at Aren with wary eyes. Carolina's most famous battle then came: The Battle of the Three Kingdoms. For three times, Carolina and Aren tangoed with Borr and Cesar on the battlefield. She managed to knock Borr out of battle, by forcing them to sign a treaty or else she sends her soldiers to burn their ships. As overseas trade was the lifeblood of Borr, they had no choice but to sign the treaty. Even then, it was no mere treaty. It was more like a contract permanently binding them to Aren. Denetos tried to intervene on the side of Cesar, but failed. Pallata stayed neutral during the whole conflict, leaving Cesar to suffer at the hands of the "Warrior Lioness from the North." Repeated confrontations, battles, and raids eventually wore both Aren and Cesar down, but Carolina refused to surrender. Not much is known about her death. She just...disappeared from history. Some say she died in a siege, others say she was assassinated. Killed by her own or killed by her foes, we may never know. On the battlefield, Carolina was known for her nearly inhuman tolerance to pain and stress, which was quite good as like any ruler of the time, she personally led her troops into battle. Outside of the battlefield however, Carolina was known to be troubled and shy, constantly worrying how things will go.
- Frederick IX was crown prince of Sakiria from 1581-1630...sort of. He was born as Frederick Hestion of Cesar on 1571, in the midst of the Sakirian Revolution. Him, the former Royal Family, and their Royal Guard were forced into hiding by the conflict until the Revolution passed by 1578. He was declared crown prince on 1581. At this time, his father George II was ruler...sort of. The Royal Family, the newly formed Parliament, and the Golden Dragon Resistance were all arguing with each other on how Sakiria should be governed. At the age of 25, Frederick began to have interest in politics as Sakiria was having a seizure just trying to decide it's government. Many of Sakirian Parliament's powers today come from Frederick, as he drafted numerous ideas for them and helped the monarchy get back on it's feet. Finally by 1616, the monarchy was restored and King George II reigned. His life was cut short by assassination in a gunfight on 1630, from anarchist John Ivery. Frederick was known to be lonely when he was young but as he aged, the young man soon opened up to the world and made many friends. He was known to be fickle and drink a lot, but he was very dutiful and hardworking. His more well-known name is Foxy Frederick, which was given from rumors that he slept around quite a lot. He had a son, Henri Hestion, who will be talked about below.
- Henri X was the crown prince of Sakiria from 1630-1667, and was nicknamed the "Prince of the Seven Seas." As soon as he was born, his parents wasted no time declaring him their heir. Henri was 12 years old when his father died. His mother Maria I (better known as Mary the Great) took power immediately after. Unlike other Sakirian regent-prince pairs, Mary and her son actually worked together. Both funded numerous expeditions, and both of them designed ships together. Atlantica, Pacificus, and East Siveria were all founded by them. Henri himself went on a few expeditions to those three colonies, and quickly gained some respect from the public. He was known for his friendly temperament and excellence in swordplay, though he smoked a lot and was known to get vain at times. He died on 1667 in the sinking of the HSMS Čadréntta, the largest loss of life at sea bar SMS Komadorski.
- Nikolai IV was the crown prince of Sakiria. Not much is known about him save for the fact he had written the Codex Nova, an old book detailing mysterious plants, animals and constellations never seen before.
TL;DR Regina Carolina: LIBERA ET IMPERA! Frederick IX: Do you want me to destroy that [EXPLETIVE] of yours like how I destroyed that debate?~ Henri X: I like big boats and I cannot lie. Nikolai IV: book While I was planning to ask you all for suggestions, I forgot to put that in my original post. So...any suggestions?
Why hello. Welcome to the wonderful world of Wintreath, were there are space time warping bears, magic exists, and personifications of ships now exist. I assume this is for a social science class is it not?
I was going to say name it after Alexander II, the same dude who was responsible for basically asserting Ursian dominance over at Arctoros. To respect rivals. But Regina Carolina is pretty awesome name, like damn. Leviathan would be impressed.
*Ursian surveillance officers sipping coffee spying on basically everyone in Wintreath and seeing two Sakirian task forces approach Northern Ursia and Kuma City surprisingly quick after the small incident. "Inform Garrus?" "Inform Garrus."
