[OOC] Game of Thrones: The Long Night

[FourtyTwo]

Would like to take on the Tyrells, Ruby- sent you a PM.

Fucking A, I've been waiting for one of these to pop up again. Let's hope it gets off the ground this time. In order to try and help along with the aforementioned DAUNTING task, I've gone ahead and created a single character rather than an entire house this time, as it's easier to get off the ground.

Posted the sheet in the CS part of the thread (still getting used to this new (for me) forum format, hope I was supposed to post it there?). It's WIP in the sense that I'm not sure if it fits with canon definitions, specifically in the case of Lys. I hope it does, but if it doesn't I'll obviously fix and rewrite it accordingly. Other than that, it's complete.

EDIT: Also, hi Vanq. Where you've been, woman?!

Welcome back!

Posted up the Biography's for Thaario Vahsi (My 'House Head') and his Wife Elia Martell. Want to maybe tie in the two children a bit more before going into their Biography. Sorry for their length before you jump into it, both are getting up there in age so they have been through quite a bit.

If anyone is interested in talking about perhaps taking the boy as a Squire perhaps? Not really sure.

Same with the young woman as perhaps a suitor or a close friendship with another woman.

Just brainstorming ways to tie them a bit closer to King's Landing since no one has picked up another Free city. If you guys have any suggestions I am open ears!

On that topic @McHaggis If you want to do some Dorne-ish things that might be neat.

Tyrells are a WIP, Garland is possibly an important figure to whoever is controlling Dayne and Peake- I really can't project his character the best in the CS, but he's a Greatest Hits album when it comes to Tyrells (who I envision as the most fairy-tale of the Houses from the surface at least). His character is definitely one that will be interesting to see the development of, particularly his maturity.

@kingkonrad

I have Raynalt, the eldest son and new heir, down as being refused by a famous Tyrell knight (unnamed as of yet) when he asked to be his squire.

[FourtyTwo]

Could be interesting to see- it might even be a case that said Knight is in Garland's court, due to the people he surrounds himself with...who knows really. Garland has an awful lot of advisers due to his inexperience (ie. he was never cut out for this job, but he is probably quick to learn it), as he's only done this job of being a Lord for two years, so that will definitely have an influence if you end up having favor with him.

@kingkonrad

I shall think on this, but for now I think I've finished the Peake brothers.

[Winston Smith]

YAY! Whenever Asoiaf shows up I come out of the shadows. *Grinds teeth waiting for TWOW*
This one looks like it's gathered quite a lot of interest too!

[Dark Light]

Super interested, need to do a lot of reading up but thinking a lost ironborn maybe from house Harlaw.
I might try come up with a good reason to be exiled.
He can be carrying the shame of a hidden secret that cuts through his pride.

Hopefully I can put it together in time. :)

@Dark Light

I just took a quick glance at that Character sheet you threw up. In it, you link to a wiki page of Hotho Harlaw. This is a character which is alive during the events of the books of a Song of Ice and Fire, and cannot possibly be breathing in the same time period as this RP is taking place in. I suggest you re-read the OP, and expand on what you are planning to do with the Harlaws.

@Sini

Fair play- there is still work to be done on my end on the other two siblings of Garland, as well as another relative of Garland's, who will play a key role. I really haven't fleshed it out perfectly, but in the RP, you'll see more of his nature come out, I feel.

[Zordon]

I am currently in talks with Sini to potentially create a Ward of House Peake.

:)

[Winston Smith]

I see there is a House Arryn therefore I cannae replay Jeyne Arryn so I shall go for my old favorite: House Grafton of Gulltown. I have become oddly fond of my fat little Merchant-lords.
Probably for the best, stopping me from being a lazy bastard and re-using my House Sheet.

@Sini

Yea noticed that, took a bit to get the timeline all sorted.
At the moment I have little interest in the politics of the houses he comes from. Having spent years on the Basilisk Isles, considered dead by his friends, family and enemies he is happy to start over new as a sell-sword.

[FourtyTwo]

Damn, at the rate I'm going with these Tyrells, I'll need to draw out a family tree- anyone know of a resource I could use to at least map out the linages of the family? That is, to create what I've made, not the current one (I have researched this, hence why Garland is Lord, rather than Lyonel in this point).

familyecho.com

[FourtyTwo]

Awesome, thanks for that. It's going to be useful to help me explain the lineage I think, at least to myself :D

@kingkonrad

I don't really have that problem, considering that I'm working on the Velaryons, and almost the entire family is dead.

[FourtyTwo]

Haha...it's a case of succession is very awry. I haven't gotten it to work right, but I've cleared it up mentally for what I want to put across.
