A Game of Thrones:
Westros


"You win or you die" ~







My Lord, I write to you from kings landing with an urgent message. The king was found dead in his chamber this very morning. The time has come to act. With such a young heir the time has come for us to forge our own path free of the shackles of the Iron Throne. Or perhaps you desire the throne for yourself?

It is with great pleasure that I invite one and all to join in our merry Game of Thrones.

This roleplay is always open and always accepting!
Although some reading may be required. I will keep a shortened history for any newcomers.

Westros is about to splinter once more into the fires of war.

Create your house, forge alliances, and destroy your opponents, just be weary of those who might wish to unseat you in your quest for glory.

For this roleplaying game each player will take on the control of their own fictional Westros Noble House. Players will be able to play as The Royal Family/house, Great houses / Lord Protectors / The rulers of large portions of Westros, Or as Bannermen the individual lords of smaller holdings.

As of now these slots are still open.
5 of 7 Great houses.
~ Bannermen

For this NRP I ask that troop orders, intrigue(spying, lying and such), and policy changes be PMed to me. You may include these in your official posts as well however you do not have to post until the resolution of your actions has been resolved in our PMs.

As such I would also like to ask that if my response posts are rather short that you do not fret as I will mostly be controlling outcomes and attempting to add flavor to the politics of the realm. I will also have several characters on the small council.


Rules!

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)
5. All houses must be in a serious manner.
6. My decisions are final, if you have a problem with a decision of mine bring it to me in a PM.
7. I will not have a specific requirement on post length or even grammer. However please do at the very least try your best. If I can't understand what you're getting at you'll likely have some unfortunate accidents rather quickly.
8. You're characters are mortal, any of them can die at any time.
9. Character development, alright I realize I listed this rp in the NRP section as it is dealing mostly with the control of a house which is very similar to a nation. However please please please put effort into crafting real characters as that's what will ultimately drive this roleplay.
10. Finally have fun, if things seem boring let me know, invite your friends. Let's make this great!


Applications


A comprehensive map of Westros. These represent all the holdings which players may control. Use this for your apps.


House Application.
All applications should be PMed to me.
Do not post them in the ooc
Please state if you are applying as The Royal family or a Great house as these have limited slots available.
I strongly encourage all players to talk about joint history's, marital ties, etc. As this will as a much more rich setting and introduction.

Well first off love the avatar pic Mr.Fox. Secondly aren't there technically 8 plus the crownlands aka King's landings. Also I'm interested however is it possible to be maybe a Varys or Littlefinger. Because Varys is very useful but had no lands and littlefinger technically has lands but little of importance to anything. Plus they could provide more interactive course for the royal family. If not then I'm most likely gonna make a Stannis Type Character.

Haven't noticed this until now. Looks great, though, I'll start drafting my house info. I'm probably going to be a riverlander, maybe even the lord paramount of the Trident.

Just a quick question: How lose are we playing with the lore? Are we considering everything before a certain date cannon, or can we change anything at any time (ex: Harrenhal was never built)?

Edit: Calling dibs on this sigil.

@LordZell firstly that I you for your dubious compliment ^_^
Secondly yes there are technically 8 but since the rp hasn't had the attention I was hoping for I've limited it to 7 for now. If we can garner more attention I'll drive up the cap.
And lastly the small council will be composed of probably 2 characters the royal family will make and the rest will be NPCs under my control.. unless somebody kills them xP I'm totally cool that you have a character within your realm that acts like them, it just can't be your only character. I suppose you could do something of a Varys if you were a Bannerman but regardless that's what I have to say.

@Vahir This rp will take place just after Roberts rebellion, however it won't be Roberts rebellion it'll be whomever the current royal family was. How the rebellion was successful is up the the family.

I'm encouraging as much intertwined histories as possible when it comes to apps. You can add and edit relationships and any time before the rp begins.

Finally thanks for joining guys ^_^ let's have a great time.

@Vahir I think I'll take you up on that offer. Anything about the Riverlands or your house that I should know before starting an NS?

Not much. Here's the bullet points:

*Named House Carlisle
*Came into power the same way as the Tullys (Aegon made them lord paramounts)
*Sigil is the Bee
*Seat is on the east bank of the Green Fork, castle named Galenave
*Current lord is a seven year old boy, the riverlands are ruled by his competent great-uncle
*The boy lord's mother (A Blackwood) is in constant political struggle with the uncle for authority
1x Thank Thank

Question if this will take place much like after Robert's Rebellion then if Gowia would allow I could be a cadet branch that took over what ever paramount he gave up to lead the 7 kingdoms. Like how he gave Renly the Stormlands?

@LordZell If it's alright with Gowia it's alright with me.
As he's the only one that seems to want the position I suspect he will be controlling the Royal house. And given my previous interactions with him he's a good roleplayer.
