	The Master-Thief The full text of the original story can be found Here. Some things to keep in mind: ⬢ The setting is Ambiguous, and subject to the whims of whoever is threading. The story implies a medieval slant, if players wish for some direction in that regard. As such, certain details are subject to be flexible. A castle could become a mansion instead, and a horse could be a fancy car, or motorcycle. ⬢ The only Role with powers is the Thief. Thieves may use any of their canon powers and abilities to achieve their goals, but will not be given any new or additional powers if they already lack them. ⬢ The Tricked role is Open. After some feedback about "ensemble" roles, we're experimenting with the idea of having them be open to anyone who wishes to make use of them, instead of assigning them outright, for more flexibility in play. Anyone may make use of this role as they see fit, and are not constrained to their assigned roles. If anyone has any strong thoughts on this matter, please let us know! ⬢ If you have not been assigned a role, you did not fill out the survey! If you're missing from the cast list, please let us know once you've filled out the survey, and we'll update the list - and let you know your role directly! ⬢ And here's a form for plotting, if you'd like to use it: <div style="width:800px;margin:15px;display:inline-block;vertical-align:top;"> <div style="background: #e5d5b8;width:800px;color:#808080;text-transform: uppercase;box-shadow: 7px 7px 0px #808080;padding:5px;font-size:22px;font-family: helvetica;">YOURNAMEHERE</div> <div style="padding-left:10px;width:800px;line-height:20px;text-align:left;font-family: helvetica;"><summary style="color:#808080;text-decoration:none;max-height:250px;overflow:auto;"><b>⬢ Contact:</b> (Discord/Plurk/PM/etc.) <b>⬢ Timezone & Availability:</b> (What timezone are you in?

⬢ Desired CR:
Honestly down for anything but I'll toss out some ideas,

→ The type of lord that won't judge the Thief for, well, being a thief. He also may or may not vibe with other Lords.
→ Will laugh if you steal from the church because heck the church.
→ If any other lords want to vaguely talk about their problematic unspecified relatives… I'm here for you.
→ He believes in rewarding people for good merit. Impress him and he'll probably give you something. I'm open to what this can be! It can be something material like money or a treasure or it can be something intangible like acceptance or love.
→ For the Stables, Claude has an affinity for horsemanship and will probably talk your ear off about horses and invite you to ride with him or something.
→ For the bedchamber, we could feasibly have Claude try to attack the Thief for sneaking up on him or something… But once he realizes who it is, he'll stop because he's not a violent person. It was self defense, really.
→ Family is something that is really complicated and important to Claude. Being the Lord and being in the position of power in this scenario could potentially leave him feeling weird after all of this is over. If you're interested in playing out some family issues, we can hash this out over plurk/disco/pm to avoid talking about spoilers here.
→ Down to hang out after the event, too.

⬢ Role: Lord. He's actually a young lord in canon and like… very close to becoming the Duke he's meant to be so he'll fit into the role naturally tbh.
⬢ Other: Heeeee probably looks closer to his future!self which can be seen here but he's still only like, 24ish in this art haha. Maybe he finally has a full beard when he's in his 50s…

Dear Claude, Ichi also has big FAMILY FEELINGS. They should definitely talk about them, either in story or post-story.

[bowfaire]

DEAR ICHI, please... I think he'd be more open within the story because of the character role but post-story, he'd lean more cagier/be more vague because sometimes you play a boy who actively avoids talking about his family when he can.

[victorytune]

Sounds good! We will take advantage of the story. I think I will do custom prompts, so I'll link you when I've put that up!

[bowfaire]

Claude: Have you considered a family that gives everyone a chance and takes care of each other and accepts one another so everyone can be happy and live their best life and
Also Claude: I can't talk about my family :)

how do you feel about lord claude & thief shang qinghua in the bedchamber because 1) it sounds like... a game of sexy clue? 2) it would be hilarious if claude attacked shang qinghua for sneaking up on him, i'm just saying
