#1
[align=center][div style="background=transparent; borderwidth=0px; bordercolor=; width: auto; font-size: 9.2pt; font-family:helvetica; line-height: 125%; text-align:justify; width: 500px"]New Carthage is a new group in TNW that I really want to see grow and do well, but for that, I need some HPs to be filled + some characters to be played. As such, I'm holding these HP tryouts + adoptions to try and kickstart the group! I highly recommend that you read the guide linked at the start of this thread to understand the way the group works, but some info about the positions / characters will be included here too.

Creative freedom is 100% allowed for most of these, though one simple restriction is that since all of the characters up for adoption / all of the characters that will fill these positions will have been born in New Carthage, their skin colour will fit somewhere into this range. Brownie points if the characters' names are Carthaginian To apply for any of these, just make a form with the basic information + whatever else you deem necessary! ALSO, if you're applying for one of the Suffettes, please tell me which of the two political factions they'll belong to. Here's some information on the factions.

[spoiler=blank slate hp tryouts]SUFFETTES (1 AVAILABLE) - The political leaders of New Carthage. Suffettes [sing. Suffet] are forbidden from taking the Peacekeeper/General position or participating in battle while they maintain this position, but are not forbidden from participating in military discussions and decision-making. In theory, Suffettes can hold their position until death, inactivity or the decision to step down. In reality, the public may force a Suffet to step down if they prove unpopular. Each Suffet must come from one of the two political factions to maintain balance.
- Suffet One, War Faction, played by NAME
- Seren Genucia, Peace Faction, played by VAN


PEACEKEEPER - The leader of domestic policy, this rank is in charge of farming, supplies and maintaining the health and morale in New Carthage. The Peacekeeper is forbidden from taking the Suffet position while they remain in this position, but are not banned from participating in political discussions and decision-making. In theory, a Peacekeeper can hold their position until death, inactivity or the decision to step down. In reality, the public may force a Peacekeeper to step down if they prove unpopular. The Peacekeeper is typically from the Peace Faction.
- Dido Rhodanus, Peace Faction, played by vellichor.

OFFICER (SHP - 1 BLANK SLATE AVAILABLE) - For those allied to the War Faction that show exceptional promise in combat and strategy. They are entrusted with commanding small units of troops, though must always answer to the General.
- Officer, War Faction, played by NAME

Minister (SHP - 2 AVAILABLE) - For those allied to the Peace Faction that show exceptional promise in domestic policy. They are entrusted with presiding over one of the subsets of the Peacekeeper rank (farming, supplies, health, morale), though they must always answer to the Peacekeeper.
- Minister (of X), Peace Faction, played by NAME
- Minister (of X), Peace Faction, played by NAME

* NOTE FOR THE MINSTER THAT I'D APPRECIATE YOU STATING WHICH OF THE SUBSETS (farming, supplies, health, morale) YOU WANT YOUR CHARACTER TO SPECIALISE IN.[/spoiler]

[spoiler=character adoptions (1 shp available)]Hasdrubal Barca - Hannibal's younger brother; 19 years old; an Officer (SHP). Personality is completely blank aside from the fact that he's incredibly close to his siblings and is loyal to the War faction.

Mago Barca - Hannibal's younger brother; 17 years old. Personality is completely blank aside from the fact that he's incredibly close to his siblings and is loyal to the War faction.

[Note that there are 4 Barcid brothers - Hannibal (21), Hasdrubal, Mago and Metallo (15).]

[s]Even if I love the idea of more Barca brothers, the idea of a Peace Faction guy is super cool too

full name - Dido Rhodanus
nicknames - none right now
age - twenty three
position - peacekeeper

faceclaim - Teyonah Parris

personality - As a peacekeeper, Dido is, quite obviously, good at holding a public presence.  She maintains a friendly and optimistic demeanor around the citizens of New Carthage, exuding warmth and confidence.  In her line of work, Dido tries to be open-minded and see both sides of an argument, a characteristic that benefits her in solving conflict.    She is rather influenced by her moral compass, sometimes leading her to trade logic for what she believes is just.  While hardworking, Dido does find time to enjoy herself, observing and even occasionally participating in such events as the horse race.  Here one would see a playfully competitive side of her. 

The twenty three year old possesses conflicting opinions on the head of the war faction, General Barca.  Surface level, Dido detests the cynical, violence-inclined attitude she perceives him to have.  To her, she believes his need for war will only lead to consequences and if war were ever necessary, she'd have a hard time accepting that solution.  Still, Dido holds a certain respect for him, though she'd never admit it.  She knows he has the people's best interest at heart and does, on some occasions, make some valid points.

headcanons 
  • maybe playful banter/rivalry with Hannibal
  • trying to pursue a more public presence for New Carthage to please people, despite beliefs held by her position in the past
  • unsure if public presence is a good idea or not, remains cautiously optimistic
  • imposter syndrome
sorry this is so long!
