[quote=@Ezekiel] Ok so, the sheet's really well written and I understand the desire to want to play a weakened house, but there's a few things to note here. Firstly; House Baratheon is the Lord Paramountship closest to the Targaryen Crownlands, and this is an age of relative stability and peace for the Iron Throne (at least initially). Not to mention the Targaryens still have their dragons 'and' Storm's End is one of the most powerful seats on the Narrow Sea for the Kingdom to maintain. I don't really see a situation in which the Targaryens allow the Baratheons to entirely lose control of the Stormlands. It might be worth altering the end situation to one of the rebellious Lords being installed as the Regent to the young Baratheon heir, and ruling through him, that way. Secondly, one of the main potential claimants to the Iron Throne, Rhaenys Targaryen, is half Baratheon through her mother, Jocelyn Baratheon. As mentioned you're more than welcome to change canon to play different characters, this is quite an important link. To keep this connection intact, I'd like to offer the solution that Robbas the Elder was a younger brother of both Jocelyn and Boremond (making him a son of Lord Rogar Baratheon and Dowager Queen Alyssa Velaryon) and that, unlike in canon, Boremond died without heirs. Let me know if that works for you. [/quote] [@Dusty] I more or less second this. You write well, and I quite like the sheet. It's great - for another time period. House Baratheon commands pride and place at this point in history, more so than usual. They have an important role to play. Their genealogical and geographical proximity to House Targaryen and the Crownlands makes the series of events you so fabulously describe unlikely. Perhaps you could look at the established canon of the time period and see if and how you might incorporate it into your application. Alternatively you might look at other houses to play where this issue does not occur. A large part of why I was interested in playing them was because how closely entwined the Baratheons are with established canon. Also, not to be nitpicking, but it's "Ours is the Fury" not "Our's". Furthermore, in regards to your earlier query, I'm fine with working something out between the houses we end up playing. Be they Baratheon and Hightower or otherwise. I very much enjoy collabs! I think I even shared a House with someone...
