Courtly Ratings

Am I of the court?

Thu, 28 Aug 2008 03:06:33 GMT

Name: Sara

Age: 17

Why are you drawn to medieval times?: The hardships people had to endure and the ferocity of their very endurance. Not to mention the difficulty women had as anything more than heir-bearing machines. If I were a woman in a medieval day – well, I’d consider it a challenge. There is a romance in all of it I suppose and I am a drawn to the romantic (and epic).

Things you like: English, literature, music, visual stimulants (television, video games, etc.), food, naptime, adventure, dancing (esp. belly dancing), rainstorms, gardens, going for walks.

Things you dislike: Mathematics, the sun, feeling rushed, sleaze, rash judgment, immaturity, lack of common sense, pushovers, discrimination, being told what to do.

If you were a lady at court, how would you spend your days at the castle?: Nevermind the castle. I would focus my power and privilege on taking care of the “less worthy” and ensuring their protection and comfort. Everyone has a fair right to approach me and ask for help, and I would even make the trip to their home to see to the needs they cannot provide for themselves. If I had the time I may mingle with the court and upper class to receive support for my efforts and business done elsewhere. Or I may just go for charm and put a smile on the faces of my peers and betters.

Three pictures: I don’t have any worthy photos but I can offer a description. I’m an Amazon – six feet tall. My face is sharp and round, ash blonde hair, dark blue eyes, big lips, kind of meaty. My wardrobe is fairly feminine, usually dark or earthy colors.

Name: Louise
Age: 35

If made a queen, what would you do in your kingdom? I would make sure everyone was well treated, had enough food to eat, warm clothing and a place to sleep. Schools would be well maintained and every child would be expected to attend at least a certain number of years. I would encourage trade with nearby countries for the betterment of my own as well as making friends and allies.
Your husband the king is having an affair. What do you do? Exile them both after declairing him no longer King!
What sort of region would you most like to rule? Somewhere temperate, with lots of forests and fields, along the coastline.
As queen, you must make the laws and make sure they are enforced. What specific ones would you enact? The one I would be most likely to enforce is that woman would be treated equally to men, and no one would be allowed to beat/abuse anyone else. Religious freedom, no one single religion would be declared better than any other. All couples would be treated fairly and equally (that would include same sex couples being allowed to marry and having all the same benefits as a hetero couple). I may or may not have the death penalty, I would prefer not to, but then, I also wouldn't want them coming back as enemies declaring war on me. I would have to think about others.
During which time period would you most like to rule? Medieval most likely, something like either Guinevere's time or Anne Boleyn's time

Love or Respect: Both in equal parts

Name B.J.
Age 27

If made a queen, what would you do in your kingdom? there must be a balance of pleasing both the royal court and the lower classes. Id make sure there was great health care for the lower classes.I'd promote music and the arts.That way children would have less time to get in trouble and put their extra energy into something productive. As I said in my previous app I would visit the sick and needy.Make the rich aware of the conditions. I would have a lot of charities.
Your husband the king is having an affair. What do you do? Well under normal circumstances I'd leave but I have a country to think about and how would a divorce affect the country. I'd kindly let him know I'm aware of the affair and that it hurts me ,however if he continues I might possibly take my own lovers since I would consider the marriage spiritually over.
What sort of region would you most like to rule? A mix of country and city
As queen, you must make the laws and make sure they are enforced. What specific ones would you enact?
During which time period would you most like to rule? mythical,any of the eras that promoted art and/or charity

Name: Joy.
Age: I'll be twenty-one on Friday. ;D

If made a queen, what would you do in your kingdom? To be perfectly honest, I'm not sure I'd be cut out for the role of queen. I don't think I'm... well, emotionally stable enough for all of that responsibility. I'd put up a strong front, even if I felt like I was at the breaking point. However, I do tend to underestimate myself, so I might be so bad after all... Anyway, back to the question. I suppose I would just keep the peace and order and make sure everything is running smoothly. I'd want to make sure that everyone in my kingdom/country at least has a place to stay and enough food to eat. We would have jobs for all of those who are able to work - farming, making clothing, and such to sell to the general public. They would be paid very fair wages, because I'm beginning to notice that the people who work the hardest get paid the least, which is completely unfair. Ideally, we would be a peaceful kingdom, where everyone is equal and respects each other.

Your husband the king is having an affair. What do you do? ~~He must die!~~ Well, I wouldn't go that far, but I would very hurt and angry. My first inclination is to kick him to the curb, but, if I felt like he deserved it, I would probably give him a second chance. But if he does it again, that's it, king or not. If he wanted to sleep around he should have thought of that before he got married.

What sort of region would you most like to rule? We would probably be independent and relatively secluded. We could trade with other places, but not become dependent on them and we would definitely stay out of their quarrels with other countries/kingdoms, unless they tried to invade our land. War is bad for everyone and we would avoid it if at all possible. But if someone is trying to steal our kingdom, then we'll just have to fight back. ;D

As queen, you must make the laws and make sure they are enforced. What specific ones would you enact? Overall, everyone would be equal and have a great amount of free will. As long as you don't hurt anyone, you can do pretty much whatever you want. We would, of course, have laws against things like murder and rape and, a bit more mild, theft. I, er... don't know about the death penalty, but I certainly wouldn't leave them roaming free in the kingdom. Animal and child abuse wouldn't be tolerated. And everyone would be perfectly free to marry whomever they choose, regardless of gender.

During which time period would you most like to rule? Tudor/Elizabethan period, ancient times, medieval times, or the Victorian era. I'm indecisive.

Pick one or the other:
Amusement or Duty: Both. If you're a queen, then your country/kingdom should come first, but you have to lighten up and have fun as much as possible. You have to have amusement to get through life.
Love or Respect: Respect.
King or Country: Country.
Beauty or Intelligence: Intelligence, but sometimes it would be nice to have more beauty.

STAMPED ~ Famous Queens Theme

Fri, 01 Aug 2008 17:33:41 GMT

Name: Sarah
Age: Seventeen

If made a queen, what would you do in your kingdom?: I would research what troubles my people (sickness, poverty, land, or whatever) and I would try and find someway to fix the problems before I worry about politics or the whole Royalty thing.
Your husband the king is having an affair. What do you do?: End our relationship (*cough*violently*cough*) and then take the children and get the freak out of there. Maybe go hide away somewhere since doing such a thing as Queen would be wrong. I don't need to be Queen, and I don't need to worry about love.
What sort of region would you most like to rule?: I don't know. A historical and traditional area. With lots of trees and farm life. Maybe rundown and poor because it seems the less fortunate are at times more polite than snobby rich people.
As queen, you must make the laws and make sure they are enforced. What specific ones would you enact?: Child and animal abuse would be stopped (people could still kill for meat and shave sheep for clothing, but don't hurt the house pet or something). Marriage would be between a man and a woman, but same-sex couples can have the exact same thing but called something different (this way I can shut up heterosexuals who don't want them to marry - it isn't called marriage so there :P ). Aaaaand...every child must attend some sort of 'school', but if the family needs them to work for support then my court will send someone to help out the family in the child's place.
During which time period would you most like to rule?: I don't know. I'm not very good at remembering what time period goes with what event or court. I can find a positive and a negative about any, anyway.

Pick one or the other:

Amusement or Duty Both. I would perform my duty as Queen, but I would have fun while doing it - unless I need to be serious for certain topics. And wouldn't my duty be to my people? They come first and I would love to talk with them and play with the children.
Love or Respect Respect. People can fake love, but I don't believe they can in all honesty fake something like respect.
King or Country Country. My people come before my King. And he better know that.
Beauty or Intelligence Intelligence. I'm attracted to it and I wish I had it. Helps the spirit much more than beauty can.

Pictures or a Description I have medium-to-long brown hair that turns red in the direct light. My eyes are brown and almond shaped. I am about 5 foot 5 inches and I wear earth tone colors like brown and green.
