This....is about a woman, a mother living in a world of wonder and steam. In breif she is an immortal due to the spring of youth she found that keeps her young and beautiful, living in a floating mansion along with her many sons of 12. Who were all raised with proper manners and utter respect and love for the'ire mother. Makeing it nearly impossible for them to defy her, though she rarely gives them a reason too since she is very fond of her sons and has even admited that they are her only weakness. Her sons are extremely clever and silver tongued as they too have lived for many more centuires than the'ire suppose to thanks to the spring. Each of them have the'ire own hobbies and personailties obviously but they all have one thing in common and that is how they treat or speak to the'ire mother. With respect and affection. She may be somewhat strict and cold at times but she merely wants whats best for her sons and herself, which you will understand if you read below.
Her backstory: (told by Regina herself) (also inculdes a picture of her)
I am Regina Berheaton, I was married to Reginald Berheaton and we were traveling the world togheter. Exploreing every corner and enjoying all kinds of veiws this world had to offer, like a happy and deeply in love couple. Or atleast that is until i found him in bed with someone else, a younger woman. It was during one of our travels, an unusal and new kind aswell. We were seeking a very special place, one that only myths had the map for. We were looking for a spring of yought, so that we could live togheter forever. And i did find it....but on my own, merely hours away from where he broke my heart with that whench. We had looked so long and went so far to find this sacred place but due to what he did i couldnt enjoy the satisfaction of discovering it. What would i need it for now? I first thought but then i feelt this raging anger wake up from my sorrow. A anger that had me decideing that i was gonna keep this spring all to myself, so that with its help i could have my revenge on him but ten fold. So with my fortune i took the whole spring, by building a mannor around it and then makeing the whole manor airborn. (which may sound odd but in my world is fairly normal amongst wealthy people) So that i could bring it with me wherever i went and also so he or anybody else couldnt find it and take it away from me.
Once the manor was done and floating slowly through the skies i decided to settle down in it, never to leave it for anything else but errands. My craveing and passion for traveling and exploreing was all gone now, dead and but a mere painful subject to even think about thanks to the betryal of my once beloved Reginald. However i very soon feelt lonesome in my manor, so i figured the best way to get revenge on him and also to get something to love and care for. Would be to sleep with various men and have the'ire child. And thats what i did. I visited countless of men, sleeping with them for only a night and gave birth to 12 sons in total....so far that is. I never saw thoese men agian or even thought of seeking them out as i swore to myself to never fall in love agian nor marry anyone ever agian. The only sort of love i am giving or accepting now is the kind i give or get from my sons. Whom I all named in alphabetic order to easier keep track on who is the oldest and who is the youngest.
The reasoning for this is cause i let all my sons use the spring of yought, so that they may stay young and live forever with me. Makeing them sometimes younger than the other and so on. It is under some conditions however that i let them, such as: They are to never marry a woman, which may sound cruel and believe me i would love to have grandchildren. But it is for the best cause of two reasons: one is because i want no one to find out about the spring and therefor find it very hard to trust anyone except from my sons. I simply do not dare to releave my biggest and most precious secret to anyone. And number two is because they will outlive the'ire wifes and they surely will tell someone about our immortailty, which will lead to suspion and thereby an investigation of how we are able to live so long. In other words they would find out about the spring in the end and surely take it away from me and i am simply not having that! My other condition is that they come back home every now and then to take care of me and keep me company. Perferably i would like to keep them all at home with me at all times but, I if all can understand the'ire hunger and passion about traveling, so i let them do.
Sometimes however they travel on business errands and i surely canot deny them this since they do bring home alot of riches so that we all may live as we do currently. Makeing me very greatful and overly proud of my sons. The Berheaton name is both well known and widely spread among the people of the ground thanks to them. Which you may think would be a problem or worrysome for me, but i am infact not since my sons are all very charismatic and clever mouthed aswell as skilled in banking. Yes we run banks all across the world and for all they know, the "mortals" that is, we have been a family buisness for centuires and only handing it down to our sons.
However when they leave for travleing i insist that atleast one of them stays with me at all times or else no one goes anywhere. This has caused them to make some sort of schedule for who goes and who stays with me in what turn and so on. Obviosuly they dont always follow this so stricly due to certain events and i am very greatful for this since i tend to have alot of my boys home with me at same time. Which happens quite often really and i am the happiest when this occurs. And of course they all come home for hoildays to celebrate it with me but thats only a few times a year. Sometimes tho they are forced to come back home due to the'ire age catching up on them and they need another bath in my spring of yought. I always welcome them back home with open arms when this happens and i of course do not deny them the spring for anything since i love my darling boys more than anything in the world. However....i have been thinking that i could use the spring as a punishment aswell, denying them access to it that is if they do something i find unfitting or upsetting. Im quite certain they have thought of it aswell and therefor dosent dare to go agianst me, atleast not too often to upset me greatly. They are afarid of getting old and dieing just like me, perhaps because i told them how utterly horrible it is to be old and scrawny. They enjoy the'ire yought and wellness as much as i do and i dont blame them. Its both a concerning and at same time a relifeing thought to think about since agian, i dont wanna loose any of my boys for anything in the world. They are all i have next to the spring and my yought that comes along with it. However the spring would mean nothing to me if i lost all my boys, they are my world and i have nothing without them.
Although.....that may not be compeltely true. I rarely show myself on the ground anymore since i dont want to cause any suspicion among the "mortals". But when i do, which is between long intervals to make sure everyone i knew or saw me is dead by then. I keep on seeing and finding this familar face in various books and even on the streets......the face of my husband Reginald. Whom i thought was long dead by age. Could he still be alive somehow? Did he perhaps find the spring before me and took some water for himself? Its possible i guess and it could explain why he suddenly decided to cheat on me with that skank. Im honestly not to sure what to think about this discovery and i am not even sure if i should believe my own eyes. Perhaps i am getting delusional after all this time? Or perhaps i am seeing him cause deep down i want him back from the dead? No!! he betrayed me! i will not forgive him for that!! *pounce the cane hard in the floor and then take a deep breath to calm down*
Eitherway....like i was saying. I rarely show myself on the ground anymore as i want my long life to be a secret. But when I do I go by my maiden name and middle name (which becomes Amelia Adel). And needless to say I always try to not cause any uneccesary attraction to myself, by wearing a hood to cover my face and stay away from any big crowds. Especilly painters and photographers. However it has been a while now since i was pregnant and had a baby to care for, so im planning to visit it quite soon to find yet another sutiable man to sleep with. Who knows? perhaps i will get a daughter this time? *shrugs with small smirk*

So to simplify what im seeking: I am looking for 12 sons that are all well raised and mannerd, smart/clever and perhaps even silver tongued. When it comes to personailty and everything else that is up for you to decide, all im asking is that you take one of the names below and behave towards Regina (me) as described above. And if you wish to take on the role of her husband Reginald then be aware that she wont be very friendly towards him, but play your cards right and you might get her forgiveness.
Her sons: (the ones she have thus far and in order of their actual age.)
Archibald (Archie) & Alistair
Barnaby
Charles (Charlie)
David
Edmund
Frederick
Geoffrey
Horace
Issac
Jacob & Joshua
(I will edit this whenever someone on the list is taken, so keep an eye on it.)
(Also please mention in the titel or in the message itself which RP you are intressted of!)
On very, very, rare occasions there may be unexplained, POSSIBLY supernatural events. Minor "environmental" magic. Perhaps implies the existence of a deity or supernatural entity. Or perhaps it's just tricks?
Industrial revolution
Small possibility of combat, usually brief and not detailed.
Romance is desired but not required, and will balance evenly with other plot.
Details: Freeform, adjustable length posts, long-term RP partner preferred.
Anyone who wishes to do this in a multi-player kinda fashion? i would personally love to explore that and learn since i havent had the chance to do so just yet.
Howdy!
Hello there!
I was wondering if I could do this rp, most of the time I'm working around steam locomotives so would that count?

Im happy that you're intressted in it but well no....a man who handels trains isnt what i was looking for. Steampunk is a style not a profession, though i seen quite a bunch of them on trains but still, im seaking sons of nobel nature. Sorry.
Still looking for this one.
Hey! I'd definitely be interested in this one, if you're still looking. I adore how much detail you have put into the idea, an idea I am very excited by. I think I would enjoy playing one of the sons, perhaps even two, depending on how many more people wish to join up.
Also, as I was reading, I had the idea that perhaps one of the sons has fallen in love with a woman during his travels, and he returns home unsure of what to do. Just a thought I had, it's perfectly fine if you hate it, or if it does not fit into what you had in mind.

Hello there! and thank you!^^ im very happy to hear that you like my idea and im over joyed to have somone replying to it. Cause yes im still looking. However, it dosent have to be a multi roleplay per say, you could act as all of the sons if you so wished xD But i thought it could be a fun idea to have as a multi one. Though if your not into multi, then thats fully fine for me.
As for one of the sons falling in love with a woman. Im pretty sure i covered this topic in the backstory but i will gladly answer it anyway. It is somewhat of a problem yes, and she will not let any of her sons get married with anyone. Mostly to make sure her secret of the spring remains a secret but also partly cause she wants her sons to stay with her and not leave too often. However, i suppose she could allow one to wed a woman, if she gets to know this woman first and is convinsed that she can be trusted. But it is mostly likely not possible as she is very fond of her sons and isnt keen on shareing them with another woman.
I am completely fine with multi or not (I suppose it depends on if anyone else shows interest), though I do think playing twelve characters could be a challenge 
. As for the son falling in love. I realise she definitely would not be happy with it, it was just an idea for extra drama. Perhaps it ends with him abandoning his love to stay with family, perhaps he leaves, perhaps his mother changes her mind... it really could go any direction if it was to be included. But, as I said, just a random idea that popped into mind. I am happy to abandon it.

Alright, then i suppose we could start of a one o one and then maybe make it into a multi if more people show up. And hehe it was mostly a joke than anything, since yea playing 12 characters would be quite difficult. I understand that and well....i dont see why not, this event could indeed happen for some drama and the such. But sadly Regina will be rather strict agianst this and it will most likely end with him being forced to leave her. Or that he has to leave her home and never return, thus then become mortal and also break his mothers heart. Though im thinking if that happend, then the roleplay would either end there or you would have to play as another son to either carry on the story or try to convise his brother about returning.
Anyway, lets discuss this further in private to not spam this too much.
