House Roxton

Seat: The Ring

History: The House of Roxton was never a big house, but its enemies were many. This was because of their lord at the time, Galder Roxton. Galder was an odd sort, who was notorious among his court and the courts of his neighbors, in that he had a very low opinion of his liege, the Tyrells. He did nothing to hide the fact that he despised Highgarden and lamented the conquest of the Ring. He was only lucky that due to his low rank, he was beneath their notice.

Galder eventually died of a terrible duel. They were both drunk and armed, and he was challenged by Ser Salvon Threefoot, a newly anointed knight from a landless family. They fought the most embarrassing duel in all the Seven Kingdoms, and both pierced themselves on their own blades. The title holder after Galder was decided by a simple coin flip, and Basdon Roxton succeeded. He had a child, but soon after, committed suicide. The Ring is now controlled by Frados Roxton, serving as regent for Lindsay Roxton.

Aurion Waters
Also known as Aurion Lightbringer

House:Targayen, The Blacks

Personality:
Aurion is a highly cultured individual who loves to make use of his rethoric and wits in public. He is rather personable and even-tempered, and he possesses a dry wit not unlike some sorts of scholars. He treats everyone with their due courtesy and respect, and sometimes even further than that, and he will rarely show anger or dismiss the feats and points of his rivals. However, after a first bath in his tongue and interaction, his words start to ring hollow. Indeed, while Aurion speaks highly and properly, his words and his heart are not connected at all, and his face seems to freeze up in a gentle smile even in the most inadequate moments. Sometimes, very rarely, he completely shows an emotion which does not match at all the circumstances that surround him, and alienates people greatly. While an avid intellectual and fair in his his dealings, those who have known Aurion long enough to see what lurks beneath the cracks of his mask find themselves lured to and horrified of what they see. Indeed, some think that the true Aurion hides a monstrous and disproportionate hatred for all living things, and curses his own existence... while others feel that Aurion is as soulless as his words are, and where his heart stands, only a cold, black void resides.

bio
Aurion was baseborn, and he spent most of his childhood carrying coals to feed the kitchens of the Dragonstone Keep. Weak and with frail sleep, he would more than once spend entire nights disturbed and haunted by vivid dreams. Dreams that more often than not, became true. Aurion, a dragonseed of the blood of Valyria lived a miserable servant existence, until the maester of the keep discovered the strange talents of the child. Indeed, Aurion was quite strange. He never played with other children, partly due to his features which often led him to be mocked and ridiculed, and instead would count the number of stones in a certain corridor of the castle without fail, as well as show similar feats of a precocious intelligence.

Half pitying him, the old man sent him to the Citadel, hoping that the young lad would serve the Kingdoms better by becoming a maester than serving meals at the keep. Initially, the decision and gut feeling of the man had been right. Aurion's talent took to the teachings of the Citadel like fire to dry wood, and indeed, many a compliment the young apprentice received during his training. He found solace among equals, and nobody ever asked about his heritage or the strange dreams that sometimes plagued him. However at the same time, Aurion's behaviour spread quite the rumours. His uncommon fascination to forge the Valyrian steel link and interest for the sorcery set him apart from many of his peers, and he seemed to enjoy the obscure and macabre far more than he should. On the night of his graduation, Aurion managed to lit the obsidian candle on his own, and earned himself the moniker Lightbringer as well as a Maester's chain, but also cemented his reputation as sorcerer and lover of the strange.

OOC: Guess what the Lightbringer moniker really stands for.

@bloonewb I am saddened by the absence of Bold Jon Roxton.

Oh Jonny boy, the pipes, the pipes are calling...

@Nightwing95 Hey Nightwing, nice to see you. I have need of you in our game.

@EricRP I was wondering if we shouldn't have Mysaria still be alive. She was a pretty significant player in the Dance as a spymaster for the Blacks, particularly Daemon. Perhaps someone would want to take on the role? I always liked femme fatales myself.

I also wonder if you have any plans for Dorne in this story line?

@MrDidact Well now I can't get that song out of my head. This may torment me for days. I might just have a major Freudian slip and write down the lyrics in my next tax return files. Hey . . .

. . . If I spread the earworm to government, how much do I get back in returns?

This is do-able. It says she was put to the sword in my CS but where's the proof? Easier to protect the girl if everyone believes you dead. If anyone wishes to play Mysaria I'll consent.

House Hightower
Seat:
The Hightower - Oldtown



The family is ancient, existing since the dawn of days when they were petty-kings. While most scholars believe they descend from the First Men, Maester Yandel posits they descend from the seafarers and traders that settled at the top of the Whispering Sound in an earlier time, men who came to Westeros before the First Men and seem to have founded the original incarnation of Oldtown. Whatever the truth, the Hightowers resided in the ancient black stone fortress of Battle Isle at the mouth of the Honeywine before the "Hightower" of stone was built.

The Hightowers built four successive wooden beacon towers atop the fortress. The legendary King Uthor of the High Tower is said to have commissioned Bran the Builder or his son Brandon to design the fifth tower, one built entirely of stone. Uthor's sons, King Urrigon and Prince Peremore the Twisted, were integral in the foundation of the Citadel.

During these early days Oldtown was threatened and sacked many times, including by ironborn raiders, Dornishmen, and the armies of the Kings of the Reach, House Gardener of Highgarden. The Kings of the High Tower raised strong walls and higher towers to keep any further invaders out. Oldtown was not brought into the realm of the Gardeners by conquest, but by marriage, during the reigns of King Lymond Hightower and King Garland II Gardener. Lymond the Sea Lion wed the daughter of Garland, while Garland put aside his own wives to marry Lymond's daughter.

During the Andal invasion, the Hightowers and the Gardeners allied with the newcomers. Thus they were able to keep their wealth, lands and privileges. Protected by the might of Highgarden, the lords of Oldtown turned their eyes to trade and commerce and grew with every generation to become one of the richest and most powerful noble families in Westeros. The Hightowers were also one of the first great lords to accept the Faith of the Seven and thus gave their patronage to the establishment of the office of High Septon and the building of the Starry Sept as the center of the Faith.



Members of the House:
Ser Otto Hightower- Hand of the King - Aegon II's Grandfather - 65
The Queen Mother Alicent Targaryen- 40 (Viserys’ Widow)
Gwayne Hightower– Second in Command of City Guard - 38 - Queen's brother
Lord Ormund Hightower – Commander of Hightower Army in the Reach - 45
Ser Brynden Hightower – A Knight in Lord Ormund's service – 17
Ser Hobert Hightower – A Knight in Lord Ormund's service – 29

@NecroKnight I find that unlikely for some reason :P

@EricRP I still need that discord invite my man.

Also here's my sheet for House Velaryon, hopefully it's up to snuff. I'll have Aemond One-Eye up later, and if nobody wants Misery, I'd be happy to make a sheet for her as well, though I'll wait on that one to see what happens.
