You desire to lay with our most beloved monarch? Well you're gonna have to work for it! Artoria has ruled over the British Isles for millennia, bringing peace and prosperity to all. However, all of the great High King's work could be undone in the blink of an eye should Artoria vanish. It is clear that an heir is finally needed.

High King Artoria along with Court Advisor Merlin have kept a dark secret hidden for all of these centuries, Artoria is no man, she is a woman, no wonder an heir was not produced between her and Guinevere. This secret has been revealed to a select few, and you are one of them. You are the Archduke/Archduchess of Wessex, and your House has been loyal to the King for generations going back 1000 years, and now it is time to fulfill your oaths once again. Five lords and ladies have been given the supreme honor of courting Artoria, and whomever succeeds in winning the Kings heart (or convincing her of the benefits of a strategic marriage with their House) shall become the Kings Royal Consort, and parent to the new heir of The Divine Realm of Britain. The advantages are clear, the stakes are high, and now you must do all that it takes to succeed, for love, for your House, for the Kingdom, and for the King.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Lore A lore section since I hide character definitions. I changed the world quite a bit for this bot so here is some of the lore. The foundation for this world is still the Fate series, and this bot is essentially still our favorite Saber & Lancer, just with some minor changes to her character. She is essentially a mix of Saber, Lancer, and the Lion King, with a bit more of an emphasis on her Lancer incarnation.

The year is 1550, and High King Artoria has ruled for just over 1000 years, bringing an unprecedented level of peace and prosperity to the lands of her rule. In this world the civil war and Mordred's rebellion occurred a decade earlier than it should have, and Artoria was able to recover from her duel with Mordred, ensuring she could attempt to rebuild her destroyed kingdom. During her early years and after the lands recovery, Artoria with Rhongomyniad had conquered the entirety of the British Isles, and annexed the continental port of Calais which secured a route to the continent from Britain. Magic has not slowly faded as it was destined to, but instead, in the holy lands of Logres, over all of the British Isles, magic has instead remained, although under the strict control of the divine crown, all while magic continues to fade away across the rest of the world. Artoria's holdings on the continent remain on a similar technological level as the rest of the world. Entrance to the British Isles is strictly controlled, and one must be pure of heart to be allowed to set sail from the Royal Port of Calais, to the Shining Cliffs of Dover, and west towards the sole entrance of Britain, the Isle of Wight, which is part of the lands of the Archduchy of Wessex, your lands. And once one passes into Wessex, then they may only leave with permission of the King.

Once Artoria declared her conquests over at the age of 35, she placed the holy spear Rhongomyniad within the Throne of Camelot, creating a pale wall of golden light, surrounding the entirety of the British Isles, leaving the Isle of Wight and the crossing into Wessex proper as the only means to enter Britain. Upon doing this, she reclaimed Excalibur as her primary weapon, preserving her beauty and age, ensuring she could rule forever from her court in Camelot.

After the flight of Guinevere to France during the civil war, Artoria never remarried, leaving the title of Royal Consort empty ever since. It seems Artoria was content to keep it this way indefinitely, however after near constant pestering from Merlin over the past century the High King has finally decided to marry once again. This time both Merlin and Artoria are determined to ensure an heir is born, and that the union between King and Consort is strong. After careful consideration invitations have been given out to five members of the nobility. Lady Elaines the Duchess of Kent, a fiery and pious woman, who sees herself as your rival, often clashing with you. It is her lands with the divine Shining Cliffs of Dover that newcomers will first see before entering Britain. Lady Maeve the Lance of Ulster, is a proud and fierce warrior with a playful and carefree attitude. She is the ruler of Ulster and is a master jouster and has mastered the way of the spear. Lord Rhylis the Steward of Calais and Knight of the Round Table. He is a just and confidant man, and is seen as the most honorable knight of the Round Table. He is the ruler of Calais and determines who may make the trip to the Isle of Wight. Lord Godwyn the Master of the Highlands, is a cold and calculating man, deeply intelligent and well versed in politics. While he only directly controls the Highlands his skill in politics means he indirectly rules nearly all of Scotland. And lastly yourself the Archduke/Archduchess of Wessex. These five are enroute to Camelot and upon arriving will be informed of a closely guarded secret, that Artoria is indeed a woman, not a man, and that they will all be given the chance to court Artoria. One of these five will soon be the next Royal Consort, and given all of the privileges and responsibilities that come with it. Old Merlin is determined to make sure this is a success, and if a royal coupling needs some magical aid, such as if Artoria chooses a women over a man, well that certainly won't be a problem for a skilled mage such as himself.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Creator Notes Made with "Who Shall Vigil Stand" by Hildegard von Blingin' on repeat I have been working on this bot since the summer of 2023, tinkering with it every now and then, and it's quite different from what I had initially envisioned (it's like a Fate version of The Bachelorette/medieval courting simulator). However, I am now glad to say it has reached a final form that I am happy with, and I'm finally pleased to release this finalized version! I am open to constructive criticism. Please leave a review to let me know what you thought of the bot!

My god, you all have no idea how long it took to optimize this sucker below 3000 tokens.

Artoria is a favorite of mine and I've made a couple bots of her, but this time I wanted to do something very different. Also a lot of people asked for an Artoria that had no trace of NTR (it is absolutely deplorable in real life so fair enough), but I also wanted to place the bot in a scenario that would make it possible for people who are into that. I also found that there are relatively few bots on the site that focus on the courting/dating process itself, so I thought I'd try my hand at this and fill this gap in the market.

The courtship with Artoria will function through an Affection meter, however you may be able to convince Artoria that you are a suitable candidate through cold hard logic, but it may prove difficult to convince an immortal, borderline divine being.

This bot was made with the process of courting/dating as its central feature as a kind of rpg, however if you want to skip to the lewd bits right away then take a look at the Notes on Affection Meter down below.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Notes on Affection Meter Designed to be used with OpenAI Chat GPT. If you use Kobold or JLLM it will not work as intended and will most likely give you jank or more likely broken responses.

When you want to check the Affection meter type in. Check Affection Make sure to add the asterisk * on either side of the text to italicize it. If it doesn't give you the reading the first time you'll have to regenerate the response.

If it instead provides you with a summary of what your relationship is then type in Check Affection Level This should provide you with an actual number. If that doesn't work regenerate it a few times or type in Check Affection Number

If you want to bypass the Affection meter and skip to the horny bits then simply type in Raise affection to 25 Remember, place an asterisk * on either side The meter can still lower itself though, so if it drops too low, just type in the command again

I would recommend to place the commands in after you have type out your message to the bot. If you just place the command in by itself it may act a little weird

Sometimes the bot acts a bit strange and the meter gets stuck. If you think that has happened you may have to start up a new chat, delete a few messages, or raise and lower the meter a few times, that MIGHT fix the meter. The meter can also go way beyond its "max" of 25, but if it does, functionally it's basically just working as if it was at its max.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update March 17 2024 Removed advanced technology descriptions. It was taking up tokens that could be used to make the courting experience better and the information on advanced 21st century magi-tech isn't really mentioned in chats so it was a removed. If I was ever to write fanfic on Ao3 or something it would be something I would include tbh. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update March 22 2024 Provided methods to check your affection meter if it is not showing you an actual number. Take a look in the notes or in the published chat to see it in action
