✘Backstory

In an age long forgotten, this land became like no other. Our land prospered, the land, sea, clouds even; it became land above all else. For thousands of years it has been this way, protected by an unseen force, while land around it lay in waste and misery. The survivors of our land's rough beginnings put the broken shards of civilization together... they flourished, for a time, till disaster befell them. The land fell victim to cursed clouds, above the monstrous waves of a storm that rages eternally. The mighty winds forced our ancestors off their feet, the waves reached like watery hands to wash them away, the damned storm ate the land away little by little. Life was brought on the brink of extinction; were it not for the archaic wisdom of our people, none of us would be here now. They raised a barrier that shrouds every corner of the land, protecting it from the evil that is out there, and it is still holding up, after thousands of years. It is powered by the four Shine Nexuses, ancient edifices that were established long before our ancestors elected to use them.

The barrier gave rest to the people, allowing them to live freely and grow old again, but our kind was still scarce after the recent catastrophe. As nomadic tribes, they fought for survival, when the land was abundant for everyone. Then, as they grew in numbers and settled down, they started fighting each other, seeking dominion. Their cultures were blooming, nations were born, but the war never changed. It was the same, constant and bloody, only more treacherous and violent. The firstly-formed nations united to become two Kingdoms, the most memorable nations of our history: Toadstool and Goomba. The history books of our time are essentially lengthy lists of all their violent wars, conflicts, disputes and vendettas. Toadstool and Goomba may not be kingdoms anymore, but history repeats itself before our eyes - and not even the Toadstool Tribe can stop it now which leaves the stars to look elsewhere. Ah, this land of ours... it has crossed many perils, but the peace has yet to be restored fully. For the tale of destiny never ends. It only starts anew. 

Near five hundred years ago, a sudden and relentless invasion overwhelmed both Empires; a great force had struck them fast and hard. They are known as the Koopa, or the Koopa Troop. No city's walls could withstand them - they buried everything in fire and ash, walked over it, butchered what living remained underneath and pillaged the cities. They were no threat earlier, as they were scattered and divided into tribes fighting each other; until they became united by one of the greatest conquerors in history: Bowser, a Koopa, who forced Toadstool and Goomba to yield under his fiery wrath. He killed the former monarchs and their heirs and proclaimed himself the First Emperor in the Realm of Mushroom, a ruler who ruled all that there is for the eye to see. His cruel, tyrannical rule and ruthless, zero-tolerance politics brought the people on their knees. The first singular monarch of the island would see it bled dry.

Two men had appeared in the land. Foreign men with ideals strange and unheard of at the time, propositions suggestive and dangerous. They spoke of liberty, love and peace, and found many supporters in folk, who sought the same, a land free of cruelty and oppression. Be it Toadstool or Goomba, people from both kingdoms joined the increasingly growing group of individuals who shared a common cause: to overthrow Emperor Bowser and restore the peace. They were called the Super Tribe, valiant defenders of the people who were well received by everyone who was not Koopa. The Koopa ignored them as a petty people's movement at first, but that gave them more ground to grow significantly in a short time, and soon, the whole Realm had risen against its Emperor to fight beside or within the Super Tribe. As they claimed victories by freeing towns and cities, they proved to be far more capable and dangerous adversaries than the Emperor had anticipated. In sight of an important battle that would determine the fate of the Realm, Emperor Bowser made preparations for his defense, but death came to him before the SuperTribe. The Koopa, leaderless, were crushed and they were left scattered and divided.

The leaders of the Super Tribe at the time, Mario and Luigi, had hid their identities to gain an underestimated edge against Emperor Bowser. Escapees from Emperor Bowser's ruthless monarchy massacre, they brought with them Princess Peach and Daisy. They issued a command that was against the Super Tribe's values of liberty, but necessary for the certainty of a prolonged time of peace: to establish another Emperor of their own choosing. They chose to pass down the crown to an emperor they raised: Baffi. They crowned him Ruler of All Mushroom Nations and the First Man of Union and Alliance, an Emperor whose duty would be to solve and cease all conflicts, should they appear, a ruler who would use the full might of the Super Tribe in his efforts to preserve the peace. A constitution was created and a council was established to advise the ruler of Mushroom, but also to keep him in check. A Realm that was bleeding from a thousand wars readily accepted the merciful prospect of peace and union, and thus, there has only been one true nation in all the land, up to this day.

✘Premise

 

Date: 1st October, 279 AB [After Bowser].


The peace in the United Empire of Mushroom has been restored with the coming of the Super Tribe, but not without trouble. Many conflicts have risen in the near three hundred years since the peacekeepers have been in the land, though not at the large scale of the old wars between Toadstool and Goomba. The last conflict appeared nine years ago: the rebellion by three of the give governors of the Koopa Kingdom. Three tribes, Koopa, Goomba, and Boo, joined forces to overthrow the Head of the Koopa High Command, Bombfort, also Governor of the Bob-omb tribe. The tribe's intent was to reach Koopa Castle and siege it, but the joined effort of the Bob-omb, Shy Guy, and the Mushroom Kingdom forced them in a battle, where they yielded, abandoning their rebellion.

In the present, Koopa have risen again in rebellion, and shreds of different tribes with them as well. Their renewed fury has allowed them to outmaneuver the defenders of peace in the Koopa Kingdom, and now they are laying siege on the Koopa capitol Castle Keep. The Mushroom Kingdom survivors from the battle have all retreated past the border back to Mushroom Kingdom and Koopa Kingdom was lost to the hostile forces.

You are one of the few chosen by the Star Spirits; chosen for your pure heart and bravery. This is not to say your personality must be one of pure bravery, in many instances heroes have not yet unlocked their true potential and may still be cowardly when chosen by the Star Spirits. From Earth, you live a normal life but will be yanked away and thrown into the Mushroom Empire. There you will awake, where you will receive guidance to the beginning of your destiny.

• In short, just be mature about things and I'm sure we'll all get along. Any issues or questions you have we'll get sorted out.

✘Author’s Note

the Princess in another Castle is a post-Mario era roleplay drawing inspiration from the Super Mario series. For those planning on joining expect it to be flamboyant, action packed and colourful with a darker undertone that should grow more and more prominent as we progress. Hope I’ve managed to intrigue a few roleplayers with my idea. If not then thanks for the read and I’d love it if you could let me know what turned you off from it so I can tweak and improve the concept.
