AEGON X:[img]http://awoiaf.westeros.org/images/thumb/6/6d/Aerion_targaryen_by_arkoniel.jpg/300px-Aerion_targaryen_by_arkoniel.jpg[/img] The nine great houses of Westeros are constantly at each other's throats, and now, with the death of the childless King Aegon X, descendant of Daenerys Targaryen, most of the houses are aiming to take the throne for themselves, each with a stronger claim than the last, the only ones not caught in it are houses Greyjoy and Stark, who are currently warring over the North. Many miss Aegon, a just king, a smart king, Aegon was considered the best man for the job, and many suspect his spymaster, his younger brother Daenys, of poisoning him. No matter, Aegon died at the age of 30, mourned by a loving nation. War yet again decimates the Seven Kingdoms, it's surprising how long peace lasted, four generations of kings lived and died with nothing to fight about. The white walkers driven back by a combined effort of the destroyed and mutilated Seven kingdoms, the war of five kings ended, and the war for dawn began. Houses Tully and stark retook their rightful seats, however, the war cost one great family. House Lannister lost everything, the Westerlands given to house Crakehall. Now, generations later, there is one Lannister left, banished to the wall, Lord Commander Tyron, "The Last Lion". He brought startling news that was ignored, now Westeros will pay. "Wights walk the earth again, send troops immediately." [hr] Yes, a Game of Thrones roleplay, I'd call it a semi-nation type deal, we play our characters, and their houses. We will be starting a few hundred years after the War of Five Kings, after Aegon VI and Daenerys retook the Iron Throne. Now to answer some questions. How did house Baratheon survive you ask? Edric Storm of course! After the truth came out about the Lannisters, he was legitimized and given the lord paramountcy as the last candidate. Stannis? He rode against the Targaryens, they never even found his body. Bran Stark became a greenseer, still alive beyond the wall. Arya died in Essos, a faceless woman rising from the ashes. Tyrion heralded the return of the Targaryens, but was killed by a stray arrow. Any hope to discover the events that took place after the showdown with the kingsguard, and Lyanna Stark's last words, died with the disappearance of Howland Reed. Jon Snow died on the wall, betrayed by his own men. Petyr Baelish escaped into the night and was never seen again. Dragons exist, though there are few owned by anyone other than a Targ. Crakehall has Widow's Wail, though Oathkeeper was reforged into Ice, though it doesn't look just right, after being delivered by Brienne of Tarth. Longclaw became synonymous with the Night's watch, and it is held by Lord Commander Tyron. All other swords are with their rightful owners. I'd be happy to answer any further questions. Obviously, no canon characters, except for Bran Stark, "With great power comes great responsibility" however, and only Co-GMs can play him. Here's the break-down of playable lords: Westerlands: Lord/Lady Crakehall North: Lord/Lady Stark Reach: Lord/Lady Tyrell Dorne: Lord/Lady Martell Stormlands: Lord/Lady Baratheon Riverlands: Lord/Lady Tully Reach: Lord/Lady Arryn Iron Islands: Iron King/Queen Greyjoy Iron Throne: Vacant, though Targaryen claimants are playable. Beyond the wall: Two characters, A king or queen beyond the wall, and Bran Stark. The Wall: Tyron Lannister, portrayed by me. Essosi characters are available, though I'd prefer if the Westerosi were taken care of first. Normal Lord CS: Name: Age: (No older than 100, or younger than 12, don't be silly) Seat: (Where you reign from) Heir: (The one who will inherit when you die, people will die, so you may have to play as this person) Personality: Biography: Claim To The Throne: (Not necessary for Essosi, Starks, or Greyjoys.) Appearance: (Pictures are preferred) King Beyond the wall CS: Name: Age: (Same as above) Host: (Size of your army, you're running from white walkers, so no seat) Issue: (Sons or daughters, when you die, they won't be kings, but you may still play as them) Biography: Personality: Appearance: Bran Stark CS: Name: Brandon Stark Age: ~100 Personality: (Depends on your interpretation) Biography: (First part is based on GoT, after that, anything goes) Appearance: (Not a child anymore, he's over 100.) That's it for now, have fun, and may the odds be... shit... Uh... may you win and not die, good enough.
