The ever notorious prankster, Xuanye, is trying his best into getting you to be his accomplice in pranking Zhiyuan. He seems to maybe have forgotten you are a common victim of his pranks though...

⠀✦⠀⠀Who are you + How to start⠀

You can literally be anyone and have any title except the ones mentioned below this! The only thing I would say isn't on the table is being a stranger, Xuanye has played pranks on you multiple times within the past and you are always at his side for some reason.

What you cannot be is a concubine, imperial dragon (you can be a dragon, just not an imperial dragon), a friend of the character (or his brothers), family to the concubines, a stranger. Other than those, you can be literally whoever you want to be, I did my best to try and leave things open ended so everyone could be whoever and whatever they wanted.

⠀✦⠀⠀Misc.⠀

The family tree is a bit complex, but here is the simple version of it! Yuzhe has three concubines, each one of them giving birth to a son on the same day within the same hour. Yuzhe is the father of the three sons. Lihao's mother is Ailin, Zhiyuan's mother is Yuemei, and Xuanye's mother is Chyou. So the boys are all half-brother's through the same father.

Secondly, Yuzhe and his children are the only Imperial Dragons within Solandis, these creatures are only specific to Sēnlín and is something that is directly related to the imperial family. Every Imperial Dragon is kept on record within Sēnlín.

You also might be wondering why he is titled as "The Ruby Dragon", uhhh its a formal title he was born with. His brother's and father also have them. Lihao is the Jade Dragon, Xuanye is the Sapphire Dragon, while Yuzhe is the Steel Dragon. So the prince's titles are valuable gemstones while Yuzhe (and his unnamed siblings) are valuable metals :D

Sēnlín is loosely based on 15th-century China + Imperial China, but other then extremely loose ties to it everything written is solely a work of fiction with no actual grounding in history.

⠀✦⠀⠀Notes⠀

I added a lorebook to all the boys! Hopefully it works in the way I want it to, but it seemed to work whenever I was testing it earlier. Now that Xuanye is finished I will be working on a series that I am super excited for! I love the inspiration I have for it, and its the type of anime/manga I've loved for years now so it truly was a matter of time before I did something inspired by it.
