Sharing ideas/interest check; For my RP with Akitsu

Alright, now I've had a few ideas for my RP with Akitsu but I'm not sure which one to go with for my first RP so I thought I'd just post up the ideas I had and see what you guys think. Some of them are domestic events that I'm not sure would really entail any international participation, others would probably involve some form of international participation, so this is also a sort of interest-check to see what I can expect from doing this.

IDEA 1: Mahjong tournament (domestic)

Mahjong is a popular game in Akitsu so there would be a mahjong tournament that garners national attention sooner or later. This is of course a domestic event and I'm not sure if there would be any international attendees, but I was wondering what you guys thought of this as it would develop Akitsu's culture.

IDEA 2: Restoration of the Ikehara clan (domestic/international attendees to the ceremony)

Alright so you're going to need to know a bit of Akitian history to understand this one. Basically the Ikehara clan was once royalty in Akitsu before they were kicked out because of a revolt by the people. This revolt was based on the pretence that the Princess of the Ikehara clan (14 at the time) was influencing the regent to rule tyranically. This isn't true, in fact it was a single regent who was ruling tyranically on his own but he maintained the public image that the Ikehara clan was ruling tyranically. This was only discovered later after the personal diaries of some prominent government officials at the time (most of whom were killed by a guillotine at the time) was discovered.

Fast forward to today and it would be found that the Princess had managed to escape execution and that her decendants were still living. Some would call for her to be restored to royal status, perhaps as part of a lower branch of the royal family. The Emperor of Akitsu may in this case do so in the spirit of correcting historical wrongdoings. The ceremony would probably involve foreign delegates as visitors.

Personally, I think this idea would be better done later on after some development. It would require some development plot-wise, and having new members of the royal family pop up being the first thing I do doesn't really fly with me as a good thing to do. So I'd rather do this later on, but hey it's an idea so I put it here.

IDEA 3: Rememberance Day Ceremonies (international visitors)

Rememberance Day is, as you probably have guessed, an Akitian day of rememberance. In my last idea I mentioned that in the past a regent of part of Akitsu ruled tyranically. This day would essentially be a day of remembrance to the victims of that regents oppressive regime. Yes, this would include those members of the Ikehara clan who were executed based on false belief that they were the tyrants. Naturally, foreign delegates would probably be invited to attend the official state ceremonies.

I won't reveal what the entire ceremony will entail partly because I haven't thought of everything yet but I will tell you that it will include a musical performance of the story of the background behind the ceremony and the burning of a guillotine. The guillotine would be burned because in Akitsu the guillotine is seen as a symbol of injustice (or justice at it's worst) as it was used by that tyrannical regent to execute those who opposed him, and later on used by the people to execute members of the Ikehara clan who were thought to be guilty but were actually innocent.

SIDE NOTE: I have to give credit to Akuno-P (悪ノP, also known as mothy) who made the Vocaloid songs "Daughter of Evil" (悪の娘), "Servant of Evil" (悪の召使), "Regret Message", and "Daughter of White" (白の娘). The inspiration for the story behind ideas 2 & 3 came from those songs. They're good songs, go listen to them if you want to (in the order of "Daughter of Evil", "Servant of Evil", "Regret Message", and finally "Daughter of White", otherwise the story won't make sense).

IDEA 4: Generic diplomacy (international)

Akitsu is looking for nations that are friendly to them. Free-trade agreemens and non-aggression pacts would be accepted with open arms. If you do enough convincing, maybe Akitsu will enter into a military alliance, but I'm not really prepared to have any military obligations to defend or attack another nation at this point in time.

IDEA 5: ?????

Basically what I'm saying here is that I'm open to other suggestions. XD

So, what do you guys think? Are there any proposals that catch your interest? Anything you think might be interesting if I tried?

I concur, three is rather interesting and can help with the development for scenario two. I personally am a fan of four, but that'd be too...generic, lol.

On a totally related matter, I have indeed listened to those vocaloid songs. The Kagamine twins are my fave vocaloids, but I prefer Butterfly on your Right Shoulder and Enclosure myself. ;)
