MEDIEVAL RAMBLINGS

Hello!
My last post was in January! Oh no! Haha...
Well since then, until now, I've just been really busy with school. Teachers think we're superhumans. 
But I did write 50 pages of my novel and send it off to Scholastic. The results will come in in May, and I'm hoping I win something! Writing 50 pages takes a lot of effort... I'd like it to be worth something. And then I don't know what else I did. I really don't. My memory is so terrible right now. 

This post is more for me than anybody else, because I have this concept that I want to write down so I don't forget. 
First off, a short summary of where this idea came from:
One day Ezgi was hyperactive after eating tangerines, and she was just being weird to me on skype chat. So she was pretending to be offended by something I said, and would not return from her 'corner' until I said "No, you are beautiful, like the rainbow." So Ezgi's hyperactive character took the name of Rainbow. Soon enough I became "Bully1" and another friend was "Curly1".
Another day when Ezgi was being Rainbow, I said I was the mighty "Sir Sapphire" and she could not act that way to me. Then I said I would protect Rainbow from Señor Sepia, and that she should watch out for Madame Maroon. I felt like this colour theme was really fun, so I created characters representing each colour of the rainbow. And they all live in a medieval/steampunk world. 
So about all these people in ROYGBIV order...

Madame Maroon (RED) — She's aged about 40, making her the oldest in all of the rainbow people. She has flowing red hair (not ginger mind you, but truly red). She is the leader of a large group of gypsies. She is a highly respected woman, and is a bit of a mother figure to Sir Sapphire, whom I will talk about soon. MM knows how to work things out, and nobody jokes with her, unless she is joking with them. She's not too developed yet. She has the ability to convince people into doing whatever she wants, charmspeak, if you will. 

Citric Cabellero (ORANGE) — This rather young man is a ginger knight with plenty of swords and freckles. He is the Knight of the Knights. He leads all of them, and even if he is not the most experienced, he is with no contest, the best. He is known for his charming smile and amazing sword skills. He and his ancestors have been loyal to the Sapphire Kings for decades. He doesn't speak much, he's more of a man of action. 

Señor Sepia (YELLOW) — SS is a man of Spanish ethnicity. He speaks with an accent and doesn't speak of anything well most of the time. His only purpose is to usurp the throne from the blues. Though as the cliche fairy tale requires, he never succeeds. And he is not the greatest threat. He is just one man with a lot of money and ambition. 

Mint Mistress (GREEN) — Viridiana, comes from a family of wizards and witches. She is Sir Sapphire's childhood friend, and has very strong magical abilities. She also takes care of all the Castle folk and employs the maids. A jack-0f-all-trades. She's rather cold and serious, which doesn't make everybody happy. 

Sir Sapphire (BLUE) — Prince Bartholomew, son of King Oliver, seems like the most cheerful, the most peaceful king the rainbow kingdom has ever seen. He was crowned at a very early age of 10, and the trauma of his father's death still haunts him. He struggles to make everything right under such pressure. He is a boy of around 18, but looks like he's 14. He ages slower than everybody around him, and is a very strong mage. His symbols are the eagle and the lightning bolt. He can also communicate with animals. His most loyal friend is his pet tiger, Richard Parker (Life of Pi reference...) whom he saved as a cub and looked after. His other signature animals are his pegasus Boltfire, his cats, his eagle Samuel, and his trusty fox Brandon. His sword is called Judivica, and it's handles are a pair of wings which also work as a sheath when the sword is not in use. Being the sword of justice, Bart can only use it after injustice has been done, and can only un-sheath it by yelling "Judivica, fly!" 

Indigo Inquisitor (INDIGO) — Not much to say about him, he's the royal judge and looks after the law which ss is too busy to handle. No one can lie to the Indigo Inquisitor. He is a quiet, mysterious man with sideburns. 

Violet Vigilante (VIOLET) — Elliot is a young man in his early 20s. He grew up in the village, and took care of his little sister. Someday he mysteriously gained the power to manipulate UV light, molecules, and whatnot. He decided his powers could be of use to the word, and took up the name of... VIOLET VIGILANTE!! This violet masked hero is the last rainbow colour to join the group. He is young, arrogant, and rather talkative. He likes to joke around, and the only reason Bart keeps him around is because he is a good listener, can cheer him up, and also has saved his life multiple times. 


ENOUGH OF THOSE NOW MINOR CHARACTERS

Bully1 — She is a young lady with anger management problems. After having her heart broken, she dyed her hair blue and swore to herself to have her revenge. Obsessed with the thought of equality and justice, she became an assassin, and works for Sir Sapphire. Though most people who meet her think she is just an aggressive girl wearing boys clothes. Little do they know... She can travel through shadows and can electrocute people. 

Curly1 — Still being developed, village wizard. Has a curly beard.

Rainbow — A girl obsessed with tangerines. She is...the CHOSEN ONE!! She always wears orange dresses and is always surrounded by tangerines.

Richard Parker — A Bengal tiger, whose mother and siblings were murdered by bandits who were after tiger fur. Bart happened to be passing by, and even though he was very small, was able to save the only remaining cub from the bandits using his magic skills. Richard Parker is his only true friend until VV comes in, and they always protect each other.

Sir David — Citrus Caballero's right hand, Dave is a loyal knight. He is also one of the only people who can have an honest conversation with Sir Sapphire.

The Scorpion (BLACK) — Just when Sir Sapphire had thought all his troubles had disappeared with Señor Sepia being arrested, he realized his troubles had just begun. The Scorpion is an immoral, evil man who wants to obliterate the rainbow kingdom. He rules an army made of scorpion/human hybrid creatures. He is rather mysterious.

The Raccoon — Ryan, is a witch working for the Scorpion. She does not like it at all, and she feels very used. She is sent to assassinate Sir Sapphire, but Bart is protected by Dave. Ryan manages to injure Dave, but Bart stops her from killing him and puts her in prison. Ryan is impressed by their friendship and kindness, and after falling in love with Dave decides to leave the Scorpion and join the rainbow kingdom. She had an habit of sneaking into people's houses at night and stealing their food and items. She is also a parallel to the Mint Mistress.

Eliza (WHITE) — Nobody knows anything about her. She's a bit like Galdalf, always appearing when it's the perfect time. She's Bart's mom! Spoilers! She wears flowing white gowns and glows white. 

I SHALL UPLOAD PICTURES SOON
