"There will be only one King."
Game of Thrones - Blood and Fire
Focus of the RP is not to lose ourselves in game mechanics; instead this is a game of logic, reason and collaborative writing. Our goal is not to have an overly competitive game, but to immerse into a nice creative experience for all parties. We write a story with each other, not against each other.
Generally, players will either pick up a canon house or create their own house and roleplay with one or several members of it. This means each player is entitled to several characters per house. However, they do not all have to be members of said house by ties of blood. Instead you can use several types of characters as points of views.
Naturally there are other options in the world of aSoIaF, such as Septons, hedge knights and sellswords, spies and spymasters, mercenaries and merchants from across the Narrow Sea, and many more. Additionally, as spots fill up or the need arises, players are allowed to play as more than one house or take over a fallen one.
OOC Rules and Guidelines:
[*]GMs are currently Sini, Zach, and myself. Feel free to contact us whenever you require assistance or information.
[*]Advanced standards; this means a common sense approach; game of logic and collaboration.
[*]Character Sheets should be posted on the OOC (though they can be sent via pm as well) for approval/disapproval. Not all decisions will be made public.
[*]You are assumed to be an adult by submitting a character for this game; please act like one.
[*]Players playing Great Lords will have the chance to weigh in on applications for Minor Lords under their Great Lord.
[*]Applications may take a few days before a decision can be made. Generally issues will be resolved over pm.
[*]Players are encouraged to play typically one-on-one scenarios, large battle scenarios, cloak-and-dagger scenarios, small plots and large plots. To be creative, and to interactive with their fellow players on their own to plot is expected. Take initiative.
[*]Players are allowed to play as more than one house, however preferably not in the same territory or region. It would also not be allowed if players wished to take up more than one Great House.
[*]House Targaryen and some canon characters are currently being held for storytelling purposes (unless stated otherwise), though if you have an idea or request, run it by the GM.

OOC information:
This game is an AU take on Aegon's Conquest. We do not seek to simply act out the Conquest as Martin has described it, nor is victory anywhere near assured for Aegon and his sisters.
