I'd like to reserve King Thor. I've already started an application which I need to fill in the bio. My only question is the history freestyle? Is there anything I need to know about Thor/House Odinson before I write it out? And if this has a realistic setting of the medieval times, would Thor and the Asgardians have to be human age or not? (pardon my grammar in a rush.)


The history is made up to a certain extent, with some parallels to a song of fire and ice lore. A few key differences however.

--In the times of the antiquity there were two highly developed superpowers, Atlantis and (Old) Asgard. Many believed that these super-powers routinely fought eachother for resources, ultimately ending in the destruction of at least both civilization(s). All that remains of the old Asgard lies in ruins at the bottom of the ocean.

--Faced with an unwinnable outcome, the Grey King Imperius Rex made a pact with Borr Odinson, in exchange for his life and his kingdom, his people would be spared from destruction and allowed to rebuild in a new home of their choosing. He went down as Atlantis burned. Descendants of the grey king reformed in what is now known as the iron islands.

--The first Asgardians(joined by some Atlanteans) came to the continent sometime during the first Age and spared Marvelos from an ancient threat, although there had been natives existing on the continent prior to the Asgardian occupation, they were more or less "unenlightened" free-folk tribes without any centralized governing force to protect themselves from external threats.

--Borr Odison was the founder of House Odinson and would go on to become the first unified king of the realms.

--The various native freefolks ended up becoming commonfolks under Borr Odison. House Rogers is in fact a descendant of one of the oldest prominent native families prior to Asgardian acquisition. Commonfolk are in fact a majority of the population of Marvelos, but a "minority" all the same.

--The rise of the mutant population(s) came henceforth with the intermingling of the various groups, although Borr generally believed Asgardians to be a supreme people with no equal, he fathered many children with commoners. The children he fathered would go on to found many houses of the realms. Though these bastard borns couldn't claim the throne for their own, they could establish territories of their own to rule. Many did just that and fought in a succession of wars over claim of these territories.

--While the Summer Isles aren't technically considered apart of the king's realms, being an independent island nation with a diverging origin, they are considered key players in Marvelos and throughout much of the world. The world's most valued metal is produced in the summer isles, many of the world's magic and technology advancements originate from the Summer Isles. With the assassination of late king T'chaka, it goes without saying that The Summer Isles will take a more active role in their associations with the realms.

Your character is good. I like that you kept the origin close to the MCU, but brought up the magical/trade elements as well, things like Alchemy and magically Enchanted armor his suit is based on.

Thanks I thought a character like mine should still have some of the MCU ties.

I was going to wait to see if the tournament idea was approved first, but as I think this could alter that decision, I'm going to go ahead and post it.

I want to have sent my former mentor and current advisor Hank McCoy to houses Grey, Rogers, Odinson, and Stark to personally invite their leaders, and inform them that I wished to negotiate a treaty with them, trade, peace, or military alliance, whichever woul entice them the most. The tournament will also be a cover for our meetings

Unknown to them, I hope to form a group to conquer other nations and guarantee victory. Parker and udaku (?) can join if they find out about it, but I won't have approached them in the same way.

@TheUnknowable where did you want house m to go conquering specifically? the reach (i think that belongs to house hydra)? because I think most of the other houses are already spoken for or in the alliance that you wanted to make

@TheUnknowable; I'm cool with that, though Jean might take a little longer to convince than the other houses...

@ayzruleshydra would actually be my first target. Mainly I want to get them working together under my guidance, and if hydra and (maybe) doom or another house has to fall remake that happen, he doesn't really care. I don't expect everyone to join, though, so I don't think it will be that one sided, especially with only four other houses being invited.

It's up to you, though. If you want me to only ally with one other house or you want the peace talks/alliance to fail, I can do that too.

I'm perfectly fine with the tournament idea, btw I had a similar tournament idea in mind anyway involving all the houses conjoining for an Olympic-like event of cross realm games. I was going to have a three day event planned with a major plot fight occurring on the second day of the tournament. I was thinking during the day they can have medieval inspired games and at night they can do the nighttime social gathering thing.

Going from there I wanted to develop the ongoing conflicts I had in mind between House Hydra and House Udaku, as well as flesh out some of the motivations of the other houses. I believe some of you already have these long-term ideas in mind of what kind of alliances and dynamics you expect from this game.

The outcome of Black Panther vs The Juggernaut on the second day of the tournament was going to set-up a few things down the road. In particular the incoming divisions to come and the Ragnarok story-line.

I like the idea and it seems more likely that all the houses would go. @NubianLegend

@ayzrules; -mumbles "ship sinker" to herself- hm, huh; what..? X'D

Nah; I'm definitely all up for the whole thing, and a lil bit of drama is always fun. Expect Jean to (reluctantly) agree and show up, but to have her co-operate, and actually have her work up the courage to face Scott and speak civilly with him is another matter of it's own... x3

@ayzrules

It made sense to me at the time that she'd be this games Daenery's but things change, and all I can do is adjust to those changes. It's no biggie.

@ayzrules, @NubianLegend; I actually had the idea to make Jean this games Dany- it was something I kept in mind while making her CS, hence why her nickname is "The Mother Phoenix"
