STAR WARS [Interest Check]

Cheers for the interest fellas!

I'll leave it for a day or two to see what other interest we pick up while I work on the OOC, which will go into more detail on the various factions, such as the Hutt Cartels and the Exchange.

STAR WARS [Interest Check]

@Bishop

The Hutts set up shop on Nar Shaddaa long ago and have been around since before the Exchange. Now that the Exchange is arguably the most powerful criminal syndicate on Nar Shaddaa, spurned on through the influx of veteran soldiers from the Republic-Revan war now without work and looking for a means to provide for themselves/family, I imagine there is definitely some skirmishes across the urban moon between Hutt gangs and Exchange thugs. So yeah - probably open hostilities, with Hutt Gang and Exchange zones across Nar Shaddaa. The Refugee sector being firmly in Exchange territory, a perfect place for them to obtain new recruits as well, for example.

The Exchange exists in the legends canon for Star Wars, yeah. They were present during the Jedi Exile's visit to Nar Shaddaa in the KOTOR 2 game, but in this RP we're going to pretty much leave Meetra Surik out of it. AU and all that. Here's the wookiepedia link to the Exchange. It does eventually die out yeah, but during our timeline, it's currently at the height of its power.

I'm not putting a 'credit limiter' on per se, maybe your character has an expensive blaster or something. But right now the Exchange is basically controlling who goes in-and-out of Nar Shaddaa because they have thugs at the primary ports, one of the reasons these refugees and our characters are trapped on the moon. There's probably a 'safe passage toll' at the ports that they're forcing merchants etc... to pay. Our characters cannot afford to pay that, and for whatever reason do not currently have access to their own ship. Maybe the Exchange 'requisitioned' it. Either way, our characters do not currently have access to their own ship. There will undoubtedly be some ports across the moon that are currently unmolested by the Exchange, but our characters would need to escape the Exchange territory they are currently trapped in to reach said ports, which is easier said than done. (In SW lore, the Jedi Exile does go on to destabilise their operations on Nar Shaddaa, but again, not something we'll really be covering in this RP.)

For the droid companions, sure!

Our characters will be banding together as a 'crew', yeah, but their first mission won't actually take them from Nar Shaddaa itself. When they do escape, they'll be on one ship, yeah. Maybe they'll get another throughout the course of the roleplay, I'm open to things like that.

There will be an Exchange character accompanying our motley crew, yep. Depending on how things go in the 'first act', or the storyline concerning the padawan, they'll either continue on with the crew or... won't.

STAR WARS [Interest Check]

Theme

---

---

The year is 3953BBY (before battle of yavin)
It is a dark time for the old republic. The Jedi Order has fallen, and the few remaining Jedi scattered across the galaxy have fled into self imposed exile, ever hunted by the relentless Sith Triumvirate. The sudden disappearance of the Jedi from the galactic stage has allowed the criminal syndicates to prosper, no longer restrained by the fear of the Jedi Order, and the Exchange has quickly grown to become the largest criminal operation. With footholds on Taris, Nar Shaddaa and Tatooine to name but a few, the Exchange is responsible for all conceivable forms of profitable crime. Slave trading, weapons trafficking, bounty hunting, smuggling, extortion and more.

The Sith Triumvirate, an uneasy alliance between the last three known sith lords, has resorted to a brutally effective shadow campaign against the republic. No longer being capable of waging open warfare against the galactic republic, the sith lords Traya, Nihilus and Sion instead conduct themselves in the shadows, orchestrating conflicts to cripple the republic from within. All the while, vicious Sith Assassins spread throughout the stars in the search for the last remaining Jedi, seeking to destroy the order once and for all.

You are not a Jedi or a Sith, however. Caught in the middle of their schemes and wars, you find yourself simply trying to survive. Trapped on Nar Shaddaa, which has come under the brutal control of the Exchange, you make your way in life however you can. You are not a hero, but you are a survivor.

Accepting a job from the Exchange, voluntarily or not, you will soon find yourself catapulted down a series of events that you could never have foreseen, events that may change the face of the galaxy forever.

Hi there!

As you can perhaps tell from the little taster above, I'm looking to create a harsh star wars roleplay about survival. It will explore the often unseen criminal underbelly across multiple planets, and while our story begins on Nar Shaddaa, it will not end there. Expect to visit well-known planets and locations from the movies, and some lesser known systems too as our characters make their way through an unforgiving galaxy. We'll explore the consequences of the war between the Jedi and the Sith. Maybe your character supports one order, or perhaps views them both as being as bad as each other. Either way, their constant wars have left the galaxy reeling and allowed for violence and lawlessness to prosper. Character development, and the relationships our characters have with one another, will be central to this roleplay. Actions do have consequences however, and characters can die, so please keep that in mind!

Your Character
The character you shall create will be caught on Nar Shaddaa, which is currently under the strict rule of the Exchange, and you find yourself unable to leave. With a refugee crisis from a war only a few years ago that split the galaxy (the war between Revan's Sith Empire and the Republic), millions remain displaced and the Exchange has taken advantage of the situation to ruthlessly extort refugees, controlling the traffic in and out of the Nar Shaddaa. Whether your character is a smuggler, bounty hunter, gun for hire, or anything of the sort, is entirely up to you. How they managed to find themselves at Nar Shaddaa also is up to you. Our story begins with these characters accepting employment from the Exchange, with it being one of the few ways you can leave Nar Shaddaa without paying an extortionate fee. This job will involve hunting down an inexperienced Padawan, with all Jedi carrying massive bounties set by the mysterious Sith Triumvirate, on behalf of the Exchange.

Choice will be a major feature of this roleplay, and there will be a large deal of freedom and flexibility in the story. Perhaps the Hutt Cartels get wind of the bounty, and offer you a larger payment, should you catch the Padawan. Such a decision would surely anger the Exchange, but denial would undoubtedly pit you against agents of the rival Hutt Cartels. Or perhaps your characters take pity on the young, lost Padawan.

Whatever their choices, this will mark only the beginning of the story, and our characters will be forced together for their own survival. Across the galaxy, you can expect encounters with the Hutt Cartels, Exchange, the Galactic Republic, Sith Assassins, corrupt politicians, innocent victims and perhaps even a Jedi. Though I do emphasise, this story is not about the heroic deeds of the exemplary Jedi, but it is instead about a group of morally ambiguous characters trying their best to do right by themselves, and survive.

tl;dr
A harsh and group-focused star wars roleplay with a great deal of freedom in group decision making that explores the darker side of the star wars universe. Focus on character development and relationships between the group. Fun. Casual advanced standard.

House Lannister

"Hear me Roar."

[ ♫ ]

[+]

House Description

Dating back to the First Men, House Lannister has a long and proud history covering thousands of years. Throughout this period they have remained the overlords of the Westerlands, thanks to their status as the wealthiest Great House in Westeros and their ability to command respect and loyalty from their vassals - severely handling those who step out of line.

Their seat is Casterly Rock, a near impregnable castle built into a colossal hill of stone, proudly overlooking the harbour of Lannisport. It is said to stand taller than even the Wall or Hightower of Oldtown, and from atop this great perch, the Lions exert influence across Westeros.

Recent History

Since the bloodshed from Dance of Dragons, and the infamous raids of Dalton Greyjoy, House Lannister of Casterly Rock has spent decades carefully repairing and bolstering their hold across the Westerlands. Repairing the damage done to Lannisport, investing in infrastructure and defence, granting loans (with strict terms) to their vassals. These have been the major preoccupations for the Lions of the Rock for decades after the Dance, their roar rarely heard outside of the Westerlands in what had become an atypically insular realm. Indeed, when the Young Dragon launched his conquest of Dorne, it was not troops of the Westerlands that bolstered his ranks - though, Lannister gold did fill their war chests.

Only in recent generations have the Lions begun to rise from their perceived slumber. Lord Gerold Lannister - named Master of Coin to Baelor I in recognition of the House’s influence and as thanks for their contribution to the war effort in Dorne - relocated to King’s Landing in 161AC. Brought with him was his son and heir of two and ten, Tytos. Since this date, the presence of House Lannister has been increasingly felt in the capital, with Gerold serving on the small council until 176AC, whereby he was loudly dismissed by Aegon the Unworthy. This dismissal followed rising tensions between Gerold and Aegon, with the unworthy king often making no secret of his disdain for Lord Lannister, despite his taste for their gold. Though the pair were at odds, the friendship fostered between their two sons - Tytos and Daeron - would continue. Tytos would become an integral part of the court faction supporting Daeron.

Ascending to the Lordship of Casterly Rock after the passing of his father in 188AC, Tytos was soon after invited to King’s Landing by his old friend, Good King Daeron. He was requested to serve as Hand, and aid in rooting out the corruption that had taken hold of the capital and restore the crown’s finances to health. Lord Tytos Lannister remains in this post.

The Lannisters of Casterly Rock have once again left their home, exerting their rightful influence across the Seven Kingdoms. How will their fortunes fare in the coming years? None can be sure. But the Roar of House Lannister will be heard.

EuroCorp
_{As an 'Eraser', Ezekiel works directly for EuroCorp. It is his job to ensure any potential, large-scale problems for the corporation are properly 'handled'. This can be anything from silencing a whistle-blower, to ensuring an EPA Investigation follows the correct route. For an 'Eraser' - the interests of EuroCorp are their only priority.}

𝙰𝚙𝚙𝚎𝚊𝚛𝚊𝚗𝚌𝚎:

In Ezekiel, it is possible to observe the man he once was through his diminishing physique. What were once broad shoulders have atrophied through neglect, a fact that is particularly apparent when he is not in uniform. Once, he stood at a relatively tall 6"2, though his back now arches ever-so-slightly into a default slump that leaves him likely closer to 6"1. Clearly, had you seen the man even five years ago, his athleticism and stamina would have been evident.

His large build remains however, and it is clear the man can still give out a strong punch, and take one, but the combination of alcohol and age has finally taken its toll on his physique. His hair and beard were once likely kept neatly trimmed, though these days appears rugged and unkempt. Shades of grey dominate the hair on his head, with only a few hairs of what was once auburn-brown remaining.

In contrast to this increasingly unkempt appearance, he will often be found wearing pristine suits and outfits without so much as a single crease. It creates an unusual contrast, and displays to the world his grasping attempts to stay focused and dedicated to his job. Yet while the uniform may be perfect, behind that uniform, the man himself, struggles to keep up in this ever-moving world.

𝙿𝚎𝚛𝚜𝚘𝚗𝚊𝚕𝚒𝚝𝚢:

DOGGED • CYNICAL • MELLOW • RELENTLESS

Ezekiel is a man who has been moulded by the world around him. Shaped by what he has seen, and by what he has done, Ezekiel is a callous and relentless operator. Were he anything less - he wouldn't have the job he has. In his line of work as an Eraser he has witnessed death, and he has been death. Such experiences, as has been the case with Ezekiel, will always leave their mark on a man. To those around him, he is reserved, aloof and never fully at-ease.

This was not always the case, however. Indeed, he has undergone quite a transformation from the days of his youth. Once - he was compassionate and warm. The world is not kind to these men, and after a great tragedy shook him to the core, he was never quite the same. His line of work, soon after, became his sole obsession, and gradually shaped him into the man he is today.

Such has been his life for the past thirty years. Yet as he advances in age, recognising that his time at the top of his game is running short, Ezekiel has become somewhat more reflective. He has begun to question how his life could have been were he to follow a different path - and, most concerningly for Ezekiel, he has come to wonder whether figures from his past would recognise the man he has become. Now, more than ever, there is an opportunity of redemption for this lost soul.

𝙱𝚒𝚘:

Now 52 years of age, Ezekiel was born in 2143. His family were reasonably wealthy, affording spacious accomodation in DST-4. Most of this income came from his mother, who worked in a bureaucratic role for the primary mega-corporation in the region, EuroCorp. His father was something of a failed scientist - constant looking to innovate and become the founder of the latest 'revolution' in hologram technology, an area in which he specialised. Something of a pipe dream, it would turn out, and the family was certainly lucky to have a breadwinner by way of their mother to pay the bills as their father floundered in his study. His early childhood was somewhat unremarkable, however, and despite the occasional arguments over his mothers insistence that their father find a 'real job', it was peaceful, too. On paper, it seemed he was likely to follow a career path similar to that of his mother. He was well-cared for, enjoyed a higher-than-average standard of living, and was plagued by no real troubles during his childhood. Ultimately, however, his path could not have strayed further.

Indeed, as Ezekiel grew into a man, he became frustrated with his closed-off and comfortable lifestyle. As many children do, he wanted to rebel. He wanted to be different from what his parents had expected of him. So it became, then, that he dropped the idea of attending higher education that would set him down the corporate path, and instead applied to join the Europa Policing Authority in the year 2161 not long after his eighteenth birthday. It was fast-paced, dangerous, and entirely the opposite of what his academic parents had envisioned. To Ezekiel, it was perfect. Soon after joining the EPA, whilst on an 'initiation night-out' with a few of his colleagues, he met Emmeline. Petite, beautiful, and smart. She was studying and training to become a veterinarian, as he learned during a lengthy first-conversation during the course of the night, and after several successful follow-up nights out together, they began dating. It was his first serious relationship - but for the two of them, the connection was clear. Both adventurous, fun-loving, and compassionate with a genuine desire to improve the world around them, their personalities complimented one another perfectly. Even his parents came to approve of his joining the EPA, reasoning that he would not have met Emmeline had he otherwise pursued higher education.

Life continued for the happy couple - and in four years they had not only moved in together, but Emmeline had successfully become a Junior Veterinarian, and Ezekiel had been lined-up for promotion to the reputable B-Unit of the EPA by the age of 24. He was a young prospective candidate - handpicked for his effort, but most importantly, his skill. Particularly with sidearm weaponry, Ezekiel had proven his prowess at the gun-range, and on the beat in more than his fair share of dangerous situations. Undoubtedly aiding his selection was the disaster of 2162, which saw masses of android units fall into a murderous frenzy. The event, brutal and disturbing, naturally led to an expansion of the B-Unit team, of which Ezekiel was apart. He would go on to complete a further two years of specialist training, followed by another year shadowing an agent of B-Unit before becoming an official member of the elite team at 27 years old.

Not long after turning 27, though, his life would be rocked by terrible tragedy. Since the successful hack of the Global Mainframe in 2162 that led to the disastrous and bloody events that followed, many hackers had attempted to replicate the hack, albeit on a smaller scale. One such attack would leave Ezekiel forever changed. Enjoying his promotion to B-Unit, and logging extra hours, he responded to a call concerning a suspicious android unit outside Shinzei Veterinarians. Alarmingly for Ezekiel - this was the vet that employed his long-time partner, Emmeline.

By the time he had arrived - there was nothing to be done. The android, sent rogue along with several others across Europa in a seemingly-random small-scale attack, massacred the inhabitants with chilling ease. Recorded footage from the security systems installed showed the unit mercilessly tossing clients against walls, murdering the staff, and exterminating the animals. It was a bloodbath, that had also resulted in the death of two EPA Officers responding to the call, who had arrived before Ezekiel.

The most gruesome and distressing of the events, however, was Ezekiel witnessing his partner and soul-mate, Emmeline, attempt in vain to barricade the door to the operations room near the rear of the building that sheltered her, and several others Witnessing such an event would undoubtedly change any man - and for Ezekiel, his reason for being had extinguished. With the android having shut-down after receiving several bullet-wounds from the two officers before murdering them, he found himself directing his rage at another. The hacker.

Being granted bereavement leave by the EPA - Ezekiel instead used this time to successfully track down, and extract a torturous revenge on the hacker, who turned out to be a 21 year old man ‘developing his cyber-skills’. It was that display that would lead to his recruitment directly by EuroCorp, and he was approached as a potential candidate to become an ‘Eraser’ for the mega-corporation. His acceptance of this offer, while in his state of grief and despair, ultimately changed his path forever. He was given the handle of 'Agent Phoenix', and his life as an Eraser began.

Ezekiel used the work as a means of diverting attention from the tragedy he had witnessed - devoting himself to the work and drinking excessively during his free-time to forget the past. This eventually became habit, and has had considerable consequences on his physique in the present day. For despite having earned his reputation as one of the leading agents of the EuroCorp, one of the most ruthless and effective ‘Erasers’, the prime of Ezekiel has passed.

Now, he finds himself in a downward spiral as the consequences of alcohol and age take their hold on his ailing body.

𝚆𝚎𝚊𝚙𝚘𝚗(𝚜):

» Primary Weapon

Pistols

These two MK4-VAMP ballistic pistols have been with the agent through thick-and-thin, and can be equipped with silencers for operations that require a stealthier approach. Typically, they fire heavier rounds that will certainly leave a mark. On the side of the pistols is a small digital display that handily highlights the number of rounds remaining. A small, but powerful LED Flashlight rests below the muzzle.

» Secondary Weapon

Laser Rifle

Requisitioned specially by EuroCorp from one of the leading manufacturers of laser weaponry, in order to supply their elite agents and operatives of B-Unit, this NODE-MKII laser rifle is particularly effective. Only used by Agent Pheonix in situations such as raids, or operations which have failed the 'quieter' approach, this rifle can reportedly fire six-hundred shots before the battery needs to be changed. For changing the battery itself, there is an easy-access component on the stock of the rifle that allows for the quick change of a battery unit.

»Stun Baton

Baton

This Electric Stun Baton is an unremarkable, steel baton that is used to subdue opponents in hand-to-hand combat. There is also a stun function, utilized by a small button hidden under the hand-guard on the hilt of the baton. This works by, when the baton makes physical contact with a target, hitting the target with a one-off high-voltage spike of electric current to render them unconscious. The stun function of the baton requires time to charge after each use.

𝙰𝚛𝚖𝚘𝚞𝚛:

» Standard Uniform

Standard Uniform

This armour, worn regularly by Agent Phoenix, is a standard for the few 'Erasers' and Agents under the employment of EuroCorp.

Certainly, working for EuroCorp has its benefits, and one of the most obvious of these is the readily available access to cutting edge technologies that will give a much-needed edge in the constantly progressing, cybernetic world. Similar to B-Unit in the EPA, Erasers and EuroCorp Agents are afforded access to the latest advancements in EuroCorp technology. For this standard uniform, underneath the corporate suit itself is a body-covering, slim exoskeleton of a deep black colour. It is of a synthetic material that not only allows for flexibility, but acts as an absorbent to shock that helps to protect the wearer from ballistic weaponry, while new-model heat-sinks are installed throughout to guard against less conventional laser weaponry. As is the case with all exoskeletons, however, there is only so much sustained attack any suit can take. It is designed not for prolonged combat, but for engagements that suit the fast-paced combat style of the Agent.

On top of this slim bodysuit, an expensive and spotless suit is worn. The cleanliness and pristine nature of this uniform often stands out in the environment, and the uniform is standard across all Erasers.

Head of the House
Maron Martell

_{[ ⚔ ] S Y N O P S I S}

House Nymeros Martell, known commonly throughout the Seven Kingdoms as House Martell, is the principal household of Dorne. For over hundred years, Dorne was independent from the rule of the Iron Throne. In the year 187AC, however, the two realms were united through the marriage of the current Prince of Dorne, Maron Martell, to the younger sister of the late King Daeron II, Princess Daenerys Targaryen.

_{[ ⚔ ] M I L I T A R Y S T R E N G T H}

---

The region of Dorne is said to be able to field a number of men from forty-thousand up to some fifty-thousand, though the precise number remains unknown to most of the Seven Kingdoms. More than likely, the number itself is closer to forty-thousand. This force is composed largely of spearmen who wear lighter armour and leathers to account for the conditions of Dorne, but also as a result of the strong Rhoynar heritage found among the peoples of Dorne. The archers of Dorne craft their bows from Dornish yew.

The Dornish soldiers are famous for their guerrilla tactics, which successfully denied Aegon and his sisters their seventh kingdom during his attempted conquest of the land. To this end the Dornish are famous for their sand steeds, beautiful and slim warhorses that are said to be among some of the fastest in Westeros. The people of Dorne say with pride that their sand steeds can run for a day, a night, and another day without tiring. There is a good horse-to-foot ratio in Dorne that plays to this strength, with the Dornish armies utilising their mounted archers and spears to great effect. Undoubtedly, while this army would be a considerable force across most of Westeros, the soldiers of Dorne come second-to-none when utilising these hit-and-run tactics across their mountainous borders or vast deserts.

Since the burning of Nymeria's fleet of ten thousand ships hundreds of years ago, Dorne has been without a sizeable military fleet.

It was the death of King Daeron I, the 'Young Dragon', that brought an end to the four year war between Dorne and the Iron Throne. Being conquered, before rebelling and repulsing the troops stationed in Dorne, the young king had agreed to meet the Dornish under the illusion he was attending a peace meeting to discuss terms for the regions renewed fealty.
Instead, he attended what was to become his murder. This act, however questionable in its honor, did effectively bring an end to the war.

The successor to the young dragon, King Baelor (who would go on to be famously known as 'Baelor the Blessed') decided to seek a quick peace with Dorne, desiring an end to the bloodshed. His first as King, against all advice given to him, was to pardon the fourteen hostages that had been taken by the Iron Throne instead of executing them in retribution. The king in fact went a step further, publicly forgiving those who had murdered his elder brother. He would go on to personally escort the hostages back to Dorne, and famously walked the boneway on foot with the hostages behind him on horseback. His arrival at Sunspear after travelling so far by foot was, by many, considered to be a miracle in its own right.

Upon his arrival at Sunspear, King Baelor was greeted by the Prince of Dorne, Nymor Martell. What was said between the two is unclear, but between them they managed to forge an unexpected peace. In this arrangement, King Baelor was to marry the young Prince Daeron Targaryen to the Princess Mariah Martell when both came of age. Prince Nymor, satisfied with the agreement, offered a galley back to King's Landing for King Baelor, but was refused. Instead, the King decided to make the walk back on foot. Another famous act of the King's ten year reign came when he walked through a pit of vipers in an effort to free Prince Aemon Targaryen, who was imprisoned in a cage above the vipers. Given a key, the King was told if he made it through to the Prince and the pair managed to escape the pit, Prince Aemon would be freed. Many bards still sing tales of the good and pious King Baelor walking through the pit unscathed, the snakes not striking a man so blessed and noble.

The peace made by Prince Nymor and King Baelor would eventually secure Dorne as another realm under the Iron Throne. Three more Targaryen kings would rule during the lifetime of Prince Nymor Martell before he eventually passed in the year 185AC. His 21 year old son, Prince Maron, succeeded him.

Good King Daeron, who was now married to Mariah Martell (the elder sister of Prince Maron) and with children by her, sought to complete the work of Baelor the Blessed. Prince Maron was open to negotiations, and with many dornishmen having already made themselves comfortable some time ago in King's Landing after the marriage of Princess Mariah Martell and King Daeron, the two parties were not as traditionally at odds with one another. Two years of negotiations seeking to unify Dorne with the Iron Throne followed after talks first began between the two men early in both their respective reigns.

Fianlly reaching an agreement after these two years, Prince Maron was married to the Princess Daenerys Targaryen in 188AC. Almost exactly one year later, Prince Maron swore fealty and, finally, bent the knee to the Iron Throne. As part of this agreement, those of House Martell were granted permission to continue styling themselves as 'Princes' and 'Princesses', and there were many other privileges afforded to the house, such as their right to collect taxes for the Iron Throne with less scrutiny. There were many across Westeros who resented the special rights afforded to this House which had not only orchestrated the murder of a Targaryen King, but frequently been enemies of those in the Seven Kingdoms.

In celebration of the new peace, King Daeron founded the palace of Summerhall in the Dornish marches. It was deliberately constructed without much protection to highlight the new peace with Dorne. A tourney of King's Landing was also held to celebrate the marriage between Prince Maron and Princess Daenerys. During this tourny, Prince Tremond of House Martell (younger brother of the late Prince Nymor) was offered a seat on the small council as an advisor, an effort to solidify the Martell's participation as a realm of the Seven Kingdoms and further encourage a long-lasting peace.

The water gardens were built by Prince Maron in 188AC for his wife, so that she may find shelter from the heat of Dorne.

Peace was not to last under King Daeron's reign, with the Blackfyre rebellion beginning in 195AC. Questions over the legitimacy of King Daeron, and the act of his father King Aegon IV to legitimise all of his bastards on his deathbed, had left a conflict simmering within Westeros for years. Undoubtedly, the newfound Dornish influence at court and their special privileges did little to aid King Daeron in winning over those who would support the Blackfyre pretenders, particularly those lords of the Dornish marches. Some of the more romantic singers and poets across the kingdoms have told stories of a lost love between Daemon I Blackfyre and the Princess Daenerys, though there is little to prove these are anything more than stories.

Loyal to King Daeron, Prince Maron and House Martell declared for the red dragon. The Dornish armies saw little action outside of Dorne itself, however, when House Yronwood allied itself with the Blackfyre pretenders Being the most powerful house sworn to House Martell, much of their time throughout the war was focused on defeating the Yronwoods. When the war ended with victory for King Daeron II at the battle of Redgrass Fields, Prince Maron pardoned the Yronwoods in an effort to secure stability within his own realm. He knew there were some in the Dornish nobility who also resented his close ties with the Targaryen dynasty, and Prince Maron was careful not to provoke them.

During the Great Spring Sickness of 209AC, Prince Maron ordered that the borders and ports of Dorne be sealed after hearing of the speed with which it spread. Some correspondence continued throughout the sickness between Prince Tremond, who had by now earned his place as Master of Laws on the small council, and Prince Maron. Through their correspondence, Prince Maron learned of the terrible fate which fell upon his brother-in-law, King Daeron, and his immediate heirs. Even his beloved elder sister, Mariah, was not spared the plague.

Two years have passed since that dreaded spring, and House Martell now swears loyalty to the new Targaryen on the Iron Throne, King Aerys I. With his ascension to the throne has come a renewed period of uncertainty, with the perceptions of the king being that he is a weak ruler with far more time dedicated to his books than ruling the seven kingdoms.

Loyal to the Targaryen dynasty through marriage ties and for the privileges afforded to them in the unification of Dorne and the Seven Kingdoms, Prince Maron keeps a watchful eye on the situation from Sunspear with regular correspondence from his uncle in the capital.

This is Me

║ Nicknames ║

Caspy

║ Sexual Orientation & Relationship Status ║

Heterosexual. That's a secret!

║ Appearance ║

Casper is slightly shorter than the general average for his gender in the United States, being roughly 5'7. On his tip-toes, he can reach the top shelves in supermarkets, and he has decided that is all that matters. His less-than-average height is matched by his lithe body, for while he is certainly toned, he does not have an especially athletic build that would indicate a dedication to any great amount of physical activity or exercise. Combined, his 'growth spurt pending' height (his own description of his height) and his general frame often lead many to assume he is several years younger.

More memorable perhaps than Caspers genetics, is his eccentric fashion style. Brightly coloured jumpers with polka-dot bow-ties, blazers, oddly patterned shirts with flowers, brogues and blazers are all commonplace in his closet.

His hair is a dark shade of blonde, bordering on brown. It is often loosely styled in a parting.

║ Personality ║

The Positive:

• Benign
• Supportive
• Compassionate

The Negative:

• Timid
• Yielding
• Patronising

More in depth:
A friendly face around the camp, Casper is always looking to make new acquaintances and establish new friendships. Some of the most important people in his life have been met at these camps, and he has become, if anything, only increasingly outgoing as the years have progressed. Loyal to a fault, Casper will try his utmost to support those he considers his friends.

Wearing his heart on his sleeve, the campers of Aces High will always know where Casper stands on any particular situation. Whether he is petrified of an insect, or upset about a prank, Casper is not one to keep his feelings to himself. He does not fear the judgement of those around him, and is in a sense 'transparent' to the world around him. Truly, he has nothing to hide, and expresses himself daily be it through his questionable fashion sense or outspoken opinions.

Yet while now having little difficulty with asserting his opinion, Casper often fails to take action. You're being a bully? Well - he'll let you know. Beyond that? Not much. Having always been timid, only somewhat recently has Casper developed the confidence to let others know his thoughts, and he remains ever anxious of causing an altercation, be it physical or verbal.

Indeed, were Casper to have one wish, it would be for the courage of a lion. He has never been in a physical fight, and is petrified of the thought. When it comes to more verbal battles, he is quick to back down and submit.

║ Brief History ║

Born into wealth among the peaceful suburbs and sprawling mansions of Hunting Valley, Casper was lucky enough to be born a Fawn. The family, having gained its relatively recent wealth (being a family of ‘new money’) through a start-up business, founded by Casper’s father Ernest Fawn (known by most simply as Ern), that quickly grew. Specifically, it focuses on the renting out of luxury yachts and boats for holiday-makers, corporate events and a host of other reasons across the United States. Casper was born the second son on Ernest and Evelyn, the mother of Casper and his senior brother of two years, Elliot. The perfect antithesis of one another, Elliot was the outgoing and academically successful while Casper tended to instead prefer extra-curricular activities of theatre and cooking, with a smaller circle of friends. Whilst Ern would never admit it, he has always seen more of himself in Elliot, reflected through Elliot’s similar drive to succeed financially.

Despite his private education, Ernest found throwing money at the problem would not fix it. That problem being, Caspers apparent apathetic attitude toward his future. Given the heavy demands of his work, however, circumstances prevented Ernest from playing a more active role model in Casper’s childhood. Despite what were undoubtedly his best intentions to encourage ambition and a thirst for success in his younger son, his inability to act as a role model led to few similarities between Ernest and Casper. The main recollection Casper has of his childhood is, quite literally, being forced to live in the shadow of his older brother. Attending the same clubs, playing the same sports and going to the same school, Casper found this served only to reinforce his supposed ‘failings’ and insecurities, more than it led him to be inspired by his brother. Still, his life continued in this way for the best part of his early childhood.

Finally, Casper was sent to toughen up among nature. His elder brother suggested the idea of Casper attending a summer camp to their parents, though only for his own entertainment. Brothers will be brothers. Despite his protest and efforts to guilt his parents into letting him instead stay at home, Casper was sent off to explore a way of life he had not yet encountered. Bugs, rain, cold, boredom. No matter what camp he was sent to, Casper knew one thing. It was going to be dreadful.

He was right, too. Well, for the first few weeks at least. Given time, Casper found being forced to live alongside strangers and get to know those around him was an enjoyable experience, even if it meant having to put up with bed bugs and spiders in his cabin. Even more than this, he met who would become his best friend at one of such camps. A relationship he certainly never expected to find quite literally in the middle of nowhere.

Since his first trip to a Summer Camp several years ago and the kindling of a friendship to stand the test of time, Casper has begrudgingly attended ever since.
