Rules
Before you choose your time period, I'd like to lay down some rules. All good role-plays have them, guys, so we need to have them too, okay? Here goes!
1) Follow the forum rules - this is pretty simple, to be honest, people. It's just common sense. This role-play is on a forum, and so we have to follow the rules of that forum.
2) Please move the role-play to PM if I ask you to - There might be some role-plays which will have to be done on PM due to sensitive themes, etc. But if something happens in the role-play that may mean the inclusion of anything like this, I will have to ask you to move it to PM. Please do not question this. Thank you.
3) Be nice to people - I will not stand for rudeness or discrimination of any kind from anyone on this thread. THIS APPLIES TO PEOPLE NOT ROLEPLAYING ON THE THREAD TOO. I do not expect arguments or flame-wars to be brought to this thread. Thank you.
4) Activity - I AM CURRENTLY SITTING VERY IMPORTANT EXAMS AND IT IS VITAL TO ME THAT YOU DON'T PRESSURE ME IN TERMS OF ACTIVITY. In return I will do the same for you
5) Plagiarism - I will not stand for plagiarism. If I find that any characters or plots have been taken from this thread, I will not hesitate to take action. I am not kidding about this. Plagiarism is a terrible thing and it negates the very hard work of role-players.
6) Duplicates - I do allow duplicates. Please just ask and I'll be happy to do this.
7) Changes to plot - I am willing to accept all changes to plots as long as theydo not go against any of the forum rules or the rules of this thread.
8) Claiming a plot - I am willing to accept all genders and sexualities in any of my role-plays. All the characters are gender neutral so when you claim a plot please let me know what sexuality pairing you want and what gender your character is. Please also let me know if you want to be the other character in the plot.
9) Be literate and semi-advanced. I want to see decent grammar and at least 10 lines of role-play. Please try and stick to this. Thank you.
10) Have fun! - Thank you so much for rping with me! I hope you have a good time!

(sure!)
Elizabeth sighed deeply, wishing the awful, smelly carriage ride could be over with. She began to fan herself as she begrudgingly thought of what lay ahead for her - her betrothed. God, how she hated that term, how she hated this suitor she'd never met before. She knew the plan her parents had for her - "It's for the best, darling," her mother had told her as she stepped into the same carriage at dawn this morning. Elizabeth knew it would ensure prosperity for her people, yes, but at the sake of her happiness? She wasn't sure it was worth the cost. The carriage suddenly went over a bump in the road and she let out a yelp as her head hit the ceiling. "Oh," she groaned, "when will this be over?" The dirty, cream-colored carriage was small as it was, and the bumpy road wasn't helping with her upset stomach. The driver in front seemed to have let the two large, chestnut-colored horses relax their pace as not to cause an accident on the uneven gravel-and-dirt road. As she gazed out the window, her heart fell when she could see nothing but thick, dark spruce trees and a lonely stream to her left. On her right, a wreath of smoke was blowing in the late afternoon sunlight far in the distance, emerging from the trees in a strange, ghost-like presence. No other travelers or even signs of recent travelers on this road could be seen, as far as the Lady's eyes could tell. It would be a long ways yet before she would reach the neighboring kingdom's castle gates, much less their farm lands. She knew they would travel long into the night before she would reach her destination. She adjusted the cases and bags at her feet - full of all matter of things, from ballgowns to a circlet to some perfume she'd received as a gift from her mother - in an attempt to grow more comfortable. It was futile. Sighing again, she curled onto the cramped carriage seat and resigned herself to try and rest before her thoughts became to muddled and wild. Elizabeth closed her pale blue eyes and within a few minutes she found herself in a dreamless, foggy state of sleep.

A young man stood just within the shadows of the trees, his eyes trained on the road as he waited. This road was commonly used by the royals for travelling between the borders, mainly because few travellers dared to brave the dark forest roads, where dangerous demons and witches were sometimes said to lurk. In reality, the young man himself was about the most dangerous thing one would encounter along that road. And even then, he was only dangerous if you didn't pay him off. Give him what he wanted, and you could continue merrily on their way. And since most of the time rich carriages rolled along this road, his price was relatively low. For them, anyway.
He was average height and had an almost catlike physique - he had muscles but was not bulky. In his profession one couldn't afford to be carrying extra muscle weight. It only slowed you down. His hands were work-roughened, the fist sign that he had not always been a thief. The young man had tousled, wavy dark hair, tan skin and deep blue eyes. He had prominent cheekbones and a wide jaw. His name was James Castor, and he was about twenty-three.
James' blue eyes were drawn to a particularly opulent carriage as it came into view, and James smiled. Perfect. Looked like royals.
He ran after the vehicle, catching onto the tail bar before hoisting himself up, pulling himself around the side of the carriage and pulling the door open, sitting inside and casually taking a seat opposite the occupant. His favoured weapon, a dagger, was already drawn from its sheath.
"So here's the deal, princess," James said as he looked at the young woman in the carriage "You're going to come with me, and you're going to keep your mouth shut. Or you die. Is that clear?"

Elizabeth's eyes widened with fear and confusion, her discomforts long forgotten. She had heard of these men - robbers, thieves; simple-minded, selfish scoundrels that stole from the wealthy for their own gain. She couldn't recall what her father had said about these men and what to do if she ran into such types, only that he'd made mention of them. How helpful, she scolded herself.
She could feel her heart in her throat and the blood roaring overwhelmingly in her ears. Surely this man couldn't just take her? What did he desire from her? The girl's eyes fluttered to the dagger in his hand and then down at the floor of the cramped carriage. Maybe there was something she could attack him with? She wouldn't scream; she was hardly ready to die, with so much world left to adventure and see.
She made her choice, her brows furrowed with anger and confusion. "Get out, now," the light-haired girl hissed, as she moved to jab the dark, dangerous man in the throat with her elbow, the other hand reaching to show him out the still-unlatched door.

James saw the movement as it was going to happen - it wasn't exactly a very subtle move, swinging your elbow at someone, and he was able to fling up his free hand to grab her elbow and stop her. At the same moment, the hand with his weapon in it moved towards her throat. He wasn't touching her, but he was making a very clear non-verbal threat. He wasn't afraid to hurt this girl, royal or not, if she caused him any trouble. That being said, he wasn't planning on causing her any harm at this point. That would not only be counterproductive, but it wasn't exactly going to persuade her to come with him.
"Make a move princess, and I'll kill you. If you try to shove me out of here I can make sure I take you down on the way out. I'll only hurt you if you get in my way, that I can promise you. So what you're going to do is jump out of this carriage with me. Or I'll kill you and leave with the most valuable thing I can find in here. I'm not picky." James said in a low, clear but calm voice. It was assertive.
'Of course you can't be picky, you idiot,' James thought to himself 'You can't afford to be - and this spoiled little princess probably knows that just by looking at you. Hurry up and get the hell out of there before someone catches you in here, with or without her. You're no use dead'

The Hamilton plot is very fun, definitely, but it again really depends on personal opinion. I do love doing all of them. I'm sorry that I've probably not helped very much. I guess just pick a random one?]

Dang it, Elizabeth thought, I should have known better. He's far too strong for me. The dagger pressing into Elizabeth's throat was not pleasant; nor was the iron grip he had on her arm. He seemed serious - very serious - and his dark, hushed tone was not helping to calm her racing nerves much either. She took a moment to study him before she tried anything else. He looked about her age, but his unkempt hair and overall demeanor made him seem much older in her eyes. She didn't like the look of him, but at this point she had no choice to make. She had to go with him; she wouldn't face death at the hands of a dirty fiend. Plus, even if he did kill her, it's not like she had her best, most expensive possessions in here anyway. Those would still be at home. God, home - I wish I could go home, she thought before meeting her intruder's eyes once again.
"Fine. Let's go. You'd best be quiet or there will be torture and other rather unpleasant things to face on your part," she hissed again, her eyes as cold as ice as she glared at him.

"Princess, I rather think you are forgetting the way this is supposed to work," James replied as his hand moved towards the door handle "Generally, I'm the one who tells you what to do, not the other way around. I know what I am doing, thank you very much"
He sheathed his knife before quickly and quietly pushing the door of the carriage open, turning to look at the princess,
"We're going to jump. If you want to land well, without any broken legs, I advise you grab my hand." James said bluntly, holding the door open with one hand and offering his other hand to her. His sheath was still within quick reach, however. It didn't matter what she tried here; he still had the upper hand.
He hoped this whole thing went well. At least she was being cooperative so far, that was a good sign. It meant he just might be successful. He had never actually kidnapped someone before, only stolen things. But the princess was a coup, and he just couldn't pass this opportunity up. The ransom opportunities he could get here were astronomical. He needed every penny of the money he would be getting from this. Not that the princess had to know that. She'd probably already assumed as much by this point, anyway. Thieves and robbers weren't generally well-off. And he most certainly wasn't, not by a long shot. He could only imagine the kind of wealth the princess possessed.
