Well, first things first, you should always have a base of interested people before you make a game. Trust me, I've had more games die than thrive, and usually its because I made them alone and then tried to get people to join.

Second, you need some sort of premise for the game. Right now it looks like you have an island and a royal family, which is a good start. But now you need to give them all something to do. Tell people why they want to join - give them a storyline to start with.

Third, give them a history. Where did the royal family come from, what happened in the past to put in motion the current storyline, that sort of thing.

And you need rules Trust me, you always want rules.

ok. what kind of rules should i put down? i've got the storyline and the history, just need the rules.

Well, whatever you see happening in other games that you dont want to happen in yours.

For instance, I hate when people have one character in two seperate places, so in all my games I write the rule "Unless it is your character's specific power, they CAN NOT be in two places at the same time". Other good rules are things like "respect all players and characters", "don't play someone else's character without their permission", stuff like that.

Now you just have to advertise it, and hope people with more time than myself will join.
