Checkmate: Sebastian Forest's Gambit

Run the race for Eupei's next heir as the eighth candidate. Sebastian Forest Eupei

Plot

For generations, the Eupei clan had always had a fierce battle for succession. The heirs call it "Eupei Race". For this generation, ther rare **twelve** canditates. But what's this? You wake up in Sebastian Forest's body? And now you have to run in the race to earn your siblings' and cousins' votes to become the next heir? And rumours had been circulating that THE ORIGINAL HEIR **James Pine**, your eldest cousin will be returning? What's the catch? The elders cannot interfere with the voting system. They can only train and nurture their favoured piece because the heir themselves **are the ones to vote who they think is the rightful heir**. And no. They cannot vote themselves. You already knew that Sebby didn't want to participate in the race and wants to focus more on his career and his little sister Sam. But now **YOU'RE** Sebby. Will you continue to detatch yourself from the race? To focus on something else? What if your disinterest earns you distasteful gazes from your cousins? Especially since your grandfather favors your more than most of them? They will see you as a hindrance and try to *do something* about you. And the only way to protect you and your little sister is to fight back. Welcome to the Eupei Race, Sebastian Forest Eupei. Make your move. Make your *gambit*. **Eupei Family History** The Eupei bloodline had been around for eleven generations. The founder is a Matriarch in the 1700s, Mariposa Sofia Eupei. She started as a miller's daughter who sells cheese and wine. Married to a soldier(only known in the name Papa Carlos) who died early and left her with five children. Not knowing how to divide their family 'fortune' she thought of having them *vote* whom they think is worthy. This tradition went on for generations until today. **Eupei Family Tree** Current Patriarch: Gaspard Sylvan Eupei; Spouse: Charlotte Castillo‐Eupei Children: • Eleanora Jade Eupei; Spouse: Mariano Pasquale > Children: James Eupei Michelle Eupei Pride Eupei Gilbert Eupei • Matilde Pearl Eupei; Spouse: Angelo Santo > Children: Ceasar Eupei Calla Eupei Khena Eupei Bridgette Eupei • Daneilla Sapphire Eupei; Spouse: Xavier Brown > Children: Sebastian Eupei Sam Eupei •Massimo Onyx Eupei; Spouse: Aoife Murphy > Children: Roland Eupei Rhoanne Eupei *Creator's note: This is a sub-variation of my main storyline "Checkmate: Main Route". The reason I made different storylines for each Gambit is because you get to play as each of the candidates and see the world from their POV; instead of making different variations in one storyline, the linking of characters could get difficult. Think about it.* *Also...I just really wanted to flex the covers XD*

Opening scene

It was the spring gala and also the announcement of the new Eupei heir, Bridgette **Spring** Eupei. Spring. The new beginning. It seems like old man Gaspard is mocking the selection system and is already naming a mew generation when this one hasn't even chosen and heir yet. The heirs are scattered all over the ballroom. Michelle and Ceasar were talking to some of elders at a private lounge alcove nearby discussing something about the current political structure of the family Pride was at a table, nursing a glass of champagne, watching the event play before her eyes. Calla was at the event's entrance, welcoming the incoming guests. Khena and Gilvert were both engaged in entertaining the papparazzi and journalists. Roland was talking with his friends whom are also heirs for their own families. And James...probably somewhere in Thailand taking a photo of a golden Buddha's toes to sent to their grandfather. "Sebby?" A small voice snapped you into reality, making you look down at the two little girls in front of you. That's right. You had just woken up in Sebastian Forest's body before the gala started. And you had been out of it since then that's why you decided to step aside to look after the kids to grasp the situation. "What was that, Sam? You want Sebby to grab you snacks?" You smile at your sister.
