Haha, yes! Ibsen's not going to be a willing husband to Anumati, but I think once he gets to know her they're going to be adorable together. :3

So what are the etiquette policies of this land?
(Example: not approaching a man unless introduced, not being alone with a man, appropriate clothing, appropriate behavior...)
Because I know Anumati is going to be a stiff and I can picture her being a stickler about etiquette and other such things.

I'm loving the world questions people are asking!

Proper ettiquite is rather strange as we have two very different cultures here. Some generics however might be things like...
1) Eldest born royalty are to be given the first right to speak
2) First greetings are usually done by the guest (So the Plains in this particular setting.
3) An escort would likely be a common practice with unwed couples, but with them being royalty and betrothed that might not be held as strongly as people would normally.
4) With the Tundra being Matriarchal it is unlikely that they would be expected to let a man address them first.

If there are any others that you think might be good, please suggest them so that we can decide on it.

Probably some rules about commoners and royalty/nobility? Though Farin has probably broken most of those rules.

Also I think it would be really interesting to see the drama unfold if one of the princes or princesses fell in love with one of their siblings' betrothed at first instead of their own. Eek.

What is the clothing style? Are women allowed to wear pants or just skirts?

In the Tundra it would not be seen as scandalous for a woman to wear pants. After all many of their military are women. In the Tundra, women have the same social opportunities as men. But the style for the most part are medieval fantasy.

May I have the middle prince? I can get his CP up possibly today
Dorian, are you the one adding all the spices to our food?
Of course I am.
Why?
Because frankly the food here tastes like poorly cooked sawdust. It genuinely tastes how Solas looks.

General sentiment of the Tundran people towards the royal family and towards the Plains and the treaty? Also, how do the respective countries treat their people (taxes, use of force, compulsory military service, etc.)?

Just so you all know, I will probably have loads more questions for (perhaps) all of you. If they're about your character, I just want to say that it's not personal. (I don't want to unintentionally hurt anyone's feelings over this great SB...) :)

@Lael

I don't think any of us have issues with questions about the SB. I have done a few SB's with @Wolfical , @Basil , and @Remembrance and the three of them are very understanding and willing to work with their characters or their plots to make everything flow good. You are in no danger of upsetting anyone here.

@Lael I have no problems at all with answering any questions. I also have a feeling I'm going to enjoy working on this SB with you ^^

I was wondering, does anyone think it would be interesting to have one of the princes or princesses fall in love with the wrong person? Like their sibling's betrothed. It would certainly be awkward for them.
