In the heart of district seven, there is a small organization that they call the C.A.M.E.L.O.T. (Chivalry Against Malicious Evils, Lies, Or Treason. Run by a fellow sometimes referred to as the King, this safe haven strives to create a peaceful environment for troubled teens. A moral code guides them as they attempt to make their district a better place to live. They hold their meetings in the backyard belonging to their leader, who has set up chairs around a massive stump that once belonged to an even larger tree. They are responsible for weekly acts of charity and goodwill around the district, including but not limited to pruning excess foliage, raising money for lumberjacks injured at the workplace, picking up litter around District seven's many parks and so much more. It is their cause to promote district unity and general well-being.
But all is not well in the "kingdom" The group suffers from internal struggle and strife. Not all of the members are as charitable as the leader would like to believe; The "King" collected his subjects from all walks of life , partly in hopes that he could inspire them to be better people, and in part, befriending them to keep them out of trouble. But, even as friends, some of them hide things from him, and some... some of them just want to watch the district burn.||The Characters||The King
A kind and generous soul who had a great passion for his beloved. A great appreciation for the people and the district he resides in. Continually striving to provide a happy, loving and peaceful getaway for troubled youth despite the constant struggle of life in Panem. A real man that makes decisions with thought and tact and always looks at the bigger picture. The oldest?
The Queen
Though involved with the King, this character is flamboyant and easily distracted, finding the constant acts of kindness to be rather droll after awhile, and being far more interested in more fun things, like parties and being the center of attention. Unbeknownst to everyone but The Wiz, she is cheating on the King with the Lance. (Scandalous!)
The Lance
Though happy to help around the district, his motivations leave much to be desired. Initially, he only joined the king's operation for the notoriety. Being so "generous" attracts a lot of attention and he uses this charity work to meet girls, though he's seeing the Kings gal on the side. Prideful and self-centered, believes he's all that and a bag of chips.The Noise
Reserved for Charade
Caused a little bit of a stir when he joined this organization, The Noise is loud and popular, knowing quite a few people around the district and having far more friends that just the other members of the Camelot. Despite this popularity, hides a neurotic paranoia that everyone is actually out to get him. Looks up to the King. Tad immature.
The Wiz
The kings closest confidant and the smartest of the group, he has sometimes been called a wizard. However, he has no arcane skills, merely being immensely talented with herbs and teas. A lover of plants and growing things in general, he makes poultices and medicines, advising the others in all manner of expertise. The only one to realize his best friend is getting double-timed, but afraid that revealing such would splinter the group forever.
The Hawk
Honest, brave and loyal, The hawk is known for his courteousness and kindness; the very model for this chivalric attribute. Some form of accident may have taken someone dear to him away forever. He presses on, as nice to everyone as he can be to hide the hurt in his heart. An aspiring architect, he plans to build a "castle" for the "court." A tragic figure.
The Boar
If you need help with something, The Boar will help you take care of it. Loyal and hard-working. This one is proud to be a part of the Kings group. A friendly guy, he is nonetheless more comfortable with just a few people, preferring to work behind the scenes. Suffers from temper tantrums which he takes out on the foliage around him. Possible unintentional vandal?
The Malicious
This one has problems. He joined thinking that there would be money in it, not quite grasping the concept of a "non-profit" organization. Shallow, contemptible and not well-liked, he dreams of taking down the King and setting himself up on a pedestal. The he'd be able to make his own rules, as well as some cash. Close friends with the enchantress.
The Enchantress
The Wiz's ex-girlfriend, she's stolen recipes from him, nicked a little something for herself from every event they've thrown. Possibly has tried to get with all the guys in the group, The King only deigns to put up with her antics because if she's around, at least he keep an eye on her, and keep her from spiraling out of control. Possible Pyromaniac or Firestarter?
The above loosely draw their traits from The Legend Of King Arthur.
I'd prefer existing characters for this plot, but you may apply and make a new one as well.
This will be a family/Friend style plot, with characters meeting up in the occasional thread; Going off by yourselves in threads of two or three encouraged, don't feel constrained by the larger plot :3.
