[quote=@Major Ursa] Some questions: 1) How does your character feel about frogs? Why? 2) What would your character consider giving their maester as a gift? Why? 3) What subjects or skills did your character pick up the most easily? What did they have the most difficulty with? 4) Does your character have a favorite vacation spot? What is it? Why? [@kingkonrad]Ay! #falconpuns You know what they say about birds of a feather... [/quote] Brilliant. Peregrines are lovely birds, I've had the chance to be up close with one recently. They really are just so majestic, genuinely a marvel to see. 1) Garland doesn't like them, but when you live in a place that has as many flowers and roses as fucking Holland, then you have to kinda get used to the fact that they exist. Probably fine, to be honest, they're there for the gardeners and in the gardens themselves, nothing more, nothing less. 2) Probably a Peregrine of sorts, one that maybe Garland has gotten to grips with, and if he knows that his maester likes Falconry too, he'll give him one of his own. Of course, Ellion still beasts Garland in this field of knowledge- it's merely a hunting tool, not a completely do-it-all master of the sky. 3) His wit, his sharp nature, and his talent at being able to just generally be a charming motherfucker was what he took on quickly, even before being a Lord- decision making, and his chivalry. Rulership was difficult, he has to surround himself in advisors, in people to get shit done, and while he's got a lot to learn, he's making progress down that road the most right now. Showing confidence through that on occasion, but being aware he has to tread carefully. 4)The Arbor, it's an island of wine, and to be honest, it's a fucking Mediterranean-climed island that is away from the world. Not too hot, not cold at all, and while it's green, it's a nice place to be, Garland would prefer it to the sweltering heat of Dorne, or of the cold of the Torrentpeak mountains. Considering how nice Highgarden is already, it's not a bad place to relax anyway, though The Arbor is good to get away from the noise.
