About Démorion


About

Démorion was inspired by a site named Muirsan long ago on Avidgamers.com (RIP). The name comes from a mis-hearing of a fantasy name. The royal family's name "DÉMERÉ" was extrapolated from "Demorion" after that.
Demorion is an unmagical, medieval kingdom by the sea. It is small but prosperous and powerful enough. However, things have been going badly for the royal family for the past 6 years. First, heirs to the kingdom were murdered from least nearly to highest. It went unnoticed at first. The king himself was poisoned, followed by the remaining nearest heirs. Since no heirs could be found, his queen assumed the throne temporarily. Finally, it was discovered that a missing, highranking heir was still alive. He came along and married the queen. Then he had her executed and courted the eldest princess--Ferona. He has been uncovered as an imposter by now and possibly the one to order all the assassins. But his wife, Queen Ferona doesn't seem to want him killed until it is proven. Or until her mother is exonerated. Now It isn't clear, by law, whether he had the right to have her executed or not. Alright so this is despicable and no one is happy. And even if they get rid of him, they will be left with Ferona. Maybe by the time we start this rp, that's already happened. But Ferona is cold and vain and cruel and strange too. No one knows why she married a man who had been married to her mother first and killed her mother and her father as has been proven by now. And then hesitated to kill him. So the populace is getting ready to revolt. They're being lead by a man who used to be a royal guard. He is supposedly born of a bastard line of the royal family. And he has just married the younger princess. The two of them want to take the throne from Ferona and the people find them so much more preferable.
