princess maker - avante en garde

[ When you insert the key and open the door, you'll find the room inside looks like the living room of a mansion. There are several doors, but one in particular stands out to you: it is ornately decorated, the very door's wood itself carved beautifully with gold etched in to make luxurious patterns depicting what looks like the sky and the wind blowing through the grasslands. Though the door is closed, you can see through it—as if it's somewhat transparent.

The room is painted baby blue and a gold-plated cradle sits in the room. Inside, a baby cries - high pitched and noisy, though immediately a nurse comes in to rock the child back to sleep. ]

-

[ Slowly, the scene changes, fading in and out with various silent scenes—the baby sits up, trying to climb out of her cradle; a little toddler dressed prettily with expensive clothes beams pleasantly; a tantrum, thrown by the little girl who's distressed; the little girl holding a puppy, pleased as punch; then the wall becomes opaque. ]

[ In the middle of the open doorway, a young girl the age of 10 sits on a chair, smiling at you. a golden retriever is curled up beside her.

This is your little girl. you couldn't help spoiling her, honestly - after all, she's a noble too, and she should like to become a princess as well. She deserves it! But you also know, with how your history's gone, she's going to have to work to get to the top. Still, you have faith in her - she's your girl, after all. ]

DECISION

[idolpro]

What classes do you choose to have your daughter take? Will you give her free time?

You may choose from Culture class, Martial Arts class, and Math & Science class. If you choose to give her free time, please note what that free time will be dedicated to.

You have 54 classes to schedule for. If you'd like, you may simply note "evenly divided" for 18 classes in each category, or note 50% X class and 50% Y class, etc.

If you note "evenly divided between all classes and free time", that will be taken as 16 classes each/6 sessions of free time.

[knightceties]

7 - Free time. We will encourage her to spend time with her doggy and teach it tricks. She gets a little gift every time she successfully teaches it something new~
8 - Math & Science
16 - MARTIAL ARTS
23 - Culture

RESULTS

[idolpro]

Your daughter goes to Math & Science class. Here, she learns arithmatic, algebra, physics, and chemistry. For lack of better term, she's. . .not doing so well. Her teacher has outlined what she's struggling with and wrote a few tips on the margins. You're hoping she'll do better next time.

Your daughter gains +8 intelligence.

Your daughter goes to Martial Arts. Here, she learns self-defense, meditation, and endurance. Everything goes smoothly.

Your daughter gains +48 diligence.

Your daughter goes to Culture class. Here, she learns manners, refinement, and elegance. For some reason this week, she's in top form! Your teacher writes a letter for you praising your daughter; "C'est magnifique! Your daughter's dancing, c'est parfait!" your daughter's teacher said. Unfortunately you don't speak French, but you get the idea they're really impressed.

Your daughter gains +115 charm.

You spend your free time with your daughter. She teaches her dog - Goldie is its name, apparently she's not good at naming either - a few tricks, and she's actually fairly good at training it. She has to learn new ways to keep getting gifts for it herself, too, and she also has to be diligent in keeping up with Goldie's training.

Your daughter gains +21 diligence.

DISCUSSION

[ This small child is mildly unnerving. ]

[knightceties]

Don't look at your daughter like that.

[calmthefoxdown]

Sorry. I didn't expect a child to be here.

[knightceties]

Talking about her like this, you're going to give her a complex, you know.

[calmthefoxdown]

Like what?

[knightceties]

Like she's not your dearly beloved daughter, of course.

[calmthefoxdown]

She's our daughter.

[ ... Wait that's an even worse implication. ]

[knightceties]

No way, obviously a Princess Gold can only be Gold's daughter.

[calmthefoxdown]

Our unit color is also gold.

[knightceties]

That just makes us all part of the Gold family! Let's see, if Princess Gold is your daughter, then that makes me her wise old grandfather~

[strokes his chin, where his beard would be if he had one]

[knightceties]

A princess needs Culture, probably...? But definitely Martial Arts. What do you think?

[calmthefoxdown]

Wouldn't it be good to have a balance of all the classes?

[knightceties]

Shouldn't we try to develop some of her skills, though?

[calmthefoxdown]

Which ones specifically?

[knightceties]

I dunno. What's this prince like, anyway? Does he like cute girls or smart girls or strong girls...

If she's gonna become Princess Gold, she's gonna have to be his type.

[calmthefoxdown]

I think the point is we don't know what's his type.

[knightceties]

Well... Her best two traits are Charm and Intelligence, so I guess we should focus on those? Though she should really know how to fight, too.

[team jock ain't gonna raise some NERD]

[calmthefoxdown]

So if it's 54 points, divided in three categories... what's the order of priority? We could do something like 17-18-19, for example.

[knightceties]

She should get some time off too, right?

And twelve weeks isn't long, we can't be too balanced if we're trying to really develop something...
