So I've been bouncing this idea around for awhile.
First off apologies on the format here. I'll clean it up tomorrow. I'm waiting this at 1am and I'm rather tired. I just really need to get this out before I forget something.
So what I have in mind is an NRP set in the fantasy Universe of Game of Thrones specifically the continent of Westros.
Players will create their own House which shall control a portion of land selected by them or possibly by myself.
If you're familiar with Game of thrones this next bit should be easy to understand. If not I'll do my best to explain.
For ease I'm going to call them Great houses. And by great houses I mean the houses that are Lord Protectors of a large body of land (a lord protector is essentially a sub king, like a Governor in room bit harder to replace)
There will be Seven great houses avaliable for play. Great house selection will be Based on best apps, first to join, and the numbers of players who join.
The player with the best app who wants the position will be allowed to play as the current ruling family. However disaster will strike shortly after the game begins in order to stir things up a bit.
All other players will be bannermen scattered throughout Westros. Now although this position sounds inferior and rightfully so as a Bannerman you have the ability to make or break your liege. Support them in battle and they may very well take the throne giving you the seat of their defeated foes. Or perhaps you will forge deals with the enemy of your liege.
So really in summary I'd like to focus on politics and Intrigue as well as Military action.
As such I will not be roleplaying as a house, however I may have a few characters in the capital who sit on the small council (a group of advisors to the king)
You are not required to know the lore of Game of Thrones to participate in the NRP. We will not be focusing on the fantasy aspects of game of thrones at this point so consider it feudal Europe but instead if Europe you get a cool new Continent that I'll place
HERE tomorrow
Here's some rules for you.
1. No Powergaming, metagaming, etc
2. Nothing offensive in the ooc please
3. No arguing in the ooc. Take it to PM.(This rule will be enforces by the faith militant)
4. No nights watch or essos characters (we may include them later but for now they're off limits)
alright I'd also like to briefly describe some other stuff.
Intrigue and Diplomacy:
perhaps the largest part of playing the game of thrones is the ability to mislead and manipulate, forge and break alliances etc. And while in sure you all will follow the now meta rule I'd like to be able to keep track of everything and eliminate as much metagaming as possible. As such I'd like to ask that all secret messages, meetings, etc be kept just that. Secret. Use PMs just make sure I know what's going on. Because the next part I'd like to detail I'd intrigue. Spies will be a tool in your arsenal. Use a PM to deploy them. Based on their characters past, you post and a but of randomness you may be able of uncover information you previously didn't know.
If your so interested that you can't wait to make am app here's a little something to pass the time.
