✧ Only those in the Guarding help shall have a weapon
✧Please refrain from excessive physical touching of another member of the ball
✧ Animals or/and pets will not be allowed to enter the Palace, but can be kept outside
✧ Hand Holding is deemed inappropriate, however, linking arms with a family member or your date is fine
✧ Do not greet a superior first; the person with the higher status must speak first
✧An appropriate greeting must be given to all those in higher status than you
✧ Looking away or breaking gaze with a superior is deemed dishonest
✧ Introduce the higher superior to the lowest first - the other way around is seen as a grave insult
✧ To arrive without notifying the hostess is very rude
✧ It is very impolite and rude to sit in the place of an older or less able person than yourself
✧ It is looked upon highly and encouraged to offer to show a lady to her seat, and accompany her
✧ It is very embarrassing for any lady to receive no invitation for dance throughout the evening

Dancing:
✧ A lady's permission must be granted before the dance
✧ It is frowned upon for a lady to ask a gentleman to dance
✧ The Royal Family shall be the first to lead the guests in the first dance
✧ A lady's husband, father, or in the last case, mother must grant permission to each gentleman that wishes their lady to dance
✧ Dance partners should be friends, family or of the same social status
✧ Interrupting a dance between two guests is seen to be very rude
✧ A lady refusing to dance with a gentleman without given reason is very impolite and rude

An Usher:
An usher is a servant that shows nobles their seats.
✧ The Usher announces Nobles as they arrive
✧ An Usher is usually chosen or approved by the hostess
✧ These employees are commonly high-ranked servants
✧ The Usher has the right to introduce anyone to anyone - the usher may be asked to introduce two people
✧ Although a servant, the usher is a high ranking one, and may talk to any lady if said lady is left alone and without a partner for dance


A Woman's Reputation:
A woman's reputation during this time was everything. A woman with a bad reputation is seen to be a bad wife.
These things listed below may affect a lady's reputation.
✧ Holding hands or accepting kisses from anyone not related by blood or marriage
✧ Talking to those who have known to have inherited a bad reputation
✧ Having much of her skin showing
✧ Upon coming to meet a higher or equal guest of social standing, a lady must bow or curtsy
✧ Upon coming in meeting with a King or Queen, a lady must kneel
✧ Accepting gifts from lovers in public is deemed greedy
✧ A widowed woman, especially with children, are deemed even less suitable as a wife
✧ Beauty and Posture - A woman who holds her head straight, does not run, and is physically attractive will have higher status, and hold better reputation

We'll be making sure that the proper rules and etiquette are in place, this time. There may be rumours and gossip about the characters who don't show proper courtesy~

So. Just curious. Since this happens every month anyway, is there going to be two noble balls in one month? One in Le Havre and one in Tambry? I'm just a bit curious since this is a monthly event and I'm wondering what the Tambry competition will do in effect to this already scheduled event? Or just a venue change?

Your questions have been answered! :D

As well, here's a little notice/announcement.
I have recently updated and added onto the Rules & Etiquette reserve on the original post. There are many strict rules and expectations, especially from the nobles around the Northern Kingdoms, so please read upon them and take them in carefully. The Noble's Ball is considered to be prestigious, so rules must be set in place.
As well- a new job opportunity! An Usher has been added onto the employment list. If you are interested, please contact @Landem and I personally, or post your interest on the thread here and we'll get in contact with you.
Thanks everyone :heart:

Can't attend if it's between the 18th of July and the 3rd of August. And I very much doubt it'll be on the 17th, or that you'll wait until the 4th. Shame, since I donated 10k to this.

Didn't have to say it like that- as much as we appreciate you donating, and I really really do, it doesn't mean you make me feel guilty for not even setting a date yet, and perhaps a date where you can't attend.

The date will be towards the end of the month.
