Our Last Liaisons

You can taste it on the air. You always can. When there's change on the wind, with the bitter taste of ash and blood and betrayal, only a few people ever seem to catch it on their tongue. 

You have returned home. From a funeral, from out of the country, but you have returned home. Either slip into your role as the seventh child of the Tsarina or bear yourself to live the life of the lowest servant. Refamiliarize yourself in the only place you've known as a safe haven. Meet new friends and reunite with old ones. Maybe even find... Someone special. 

And then you can try your best to save it all. 

• Play as either a Royal or a Servant MC. Experience two very different lives, two very different routes and see how the RO treat you  in different lives. 
• Play as male, female, nonbinary, and trans! In-depth customisation, including personality and history! 
• Slip back into the universe of Rotwood. Enjoy the few weeks you have before the Silent Century, when half the continent falls under the cloud of war, that is still going on in the current Rot of Witchwood book.

There are four RO that could potential catch  your eye. 

 - The Servant: Arkady/Arkadina (Arkasha)

Freckled, dusky skin, ash blond hair, soft, pale brown eyes, would be pretty if anyone ever actually looked at them. As a servant, they've already been a long companion, utterly dependent on your friendship to get through the day, one sided as it may be. As a royal, they show more of their sickly obsession, needing to be a favorite of yours, no matter what. 

- The Lesser Noble: Daniil/Daria (Dasha) Igorovich/Ihorivna Aleksenko

Dark, deep brown hair, easily tangled and giving them quite a roguish look when it is down. Dark, nearly black, brown eyes, rich tawny skin, however a paleness is present that promises that it does not see a lot of sun. A lesser noble, now elevated into a new house since they have emerged as a Dark Witch, with a Bear familiar at their side. As a servant, if you take their fancy, they love to "play" with you, even might promise to keep you as a kept lover when they get married. As a royal, they are intent on gaining your favor, maybe even marrying FAR above their new station.

-The Royal: Aleksandr/Aleksandra (Sasha) Tatsiavna/Tasiavich Volchek

Black-blue dark hair, shiny, pale, grey eyes that promise cruelty, and a pale face that is the main reminder of Tsarina Tatsiana's first marriage that ended with her ex-husband pushed over a balcony when she found him in bed with her sister. Who also later joined him at the bottom. Regardless, a Witchling Royal who is coming into their own as the third in line to the throne. As a servant, they cruelly take notice of you on the day before their wedding day and, if you encourage it, their affections. As a royal, they've always had a soft spot for you, as their younger half sibling. And... Tis not uncustomary for split noble houses to unite through marriage. Even as your shared mother beats them for asking for such a thing.  

- The Priest: Janos/Janka Telmányi

The oldest of the RO, they have salt and pepper dark hair, startling blue eyes and tanned skin that promised a long time traveling in the sun. They are the last to arrive to the court, and brings the winds of change along with them. The first Priest of the Basilica to enter the region since one got somewhat lost trying to get to the northern seas and was promptly quartered by horses. As a servant, they take immediate pity on you for having survived this long in what they see as the very den of hedonistic sin. As a royal, they wish to free you from a life that they see (or wish to believe to see) has been forced upon you. Purification as downright a kink for them. 

Funded RO (RO added later though Kofi and don't have a changing gender):

- The Aide: ??? 

Covered head to toe, you have never heard them speak, you do not know what they look like, and you do not know what drives them.  What you do know is that they're a killer, and take their job deadly seriously. Having been more or less a "present" to the Royal, sent from their eldest brother Pavel, they have done all they can do keep them safe, secure and... Intact. Their blank mask that covers their face gives nothing away, nor their bound hands, nor their eternal silence. As a Royal they fight against your attraction to them, just trying to last as long to get you away and married. As a Servant, you might have used to have a dalliance with them before they left with the Royal for a number of years. Do they even remember you?

- The Soldier: Pavel Volchek

Black-blue dark hair, shiny, pale, grey eyes that promise safety, and a pale face that reflects more of his mother than his long dead father. The eldest of the Volchek children, he left behind his future crown for a life in the military. A man seemingly always riddled with guilt, he feels more at ease on the battlefield, among his fellow fighters. As a royal,  he feels like the last defense against a world that seems intent to watch you fail. As the servant, he seems to remember you as much as you did him, leading to some... Interesting discoveries...
