The Players/the Houses of Marvelos














S.H.I.E.L.D Brothers/Sisters


S.H.I.E.L.D fulfills a role similar to the Nightswatch of Westeros, the sole difference being that both men and women are free to join S.H.I.E.L.D and although the taking of wives/husband is forbidden, people still manage to get pregnant.

Lord Cammander of SHIELD: Nicholas J. Fury
Vice-Commander: Maria Hill

First Ranger:
First Builder:
First Stewart:

The S.H.I.E.L.D is a military order entrusted with holding and keeping the Wall, an immense ice structure which separates the northern border of the Seven Kingdoms from the lands beyond. The order is currently led by Lord Commander Nick Fury from the stronghold of Castle Black.

The SHIELD consists of three groups: the Rangers, who fight, defend the Wall and patrol the Haunted Forest; the Builders, who maintain the Wall and the castles; and the Stewards, who support and feed the members of the Watch. The men and women of SHIELD are known for only wearing black. For once you Join SHIELD, you can never go back.

Someone asked me what all the Bastard Names were in-game wise. So here goes.

Summerset Isles: Summers
Valria: Sands
The Reach: Flowers
Solitude: Storm
Asgard: Hill
Riverlands: Rivers
Vale: Stone
Winterhold: Frost

This may seem like a dumb question but I can't find the answer to it on the introduction, but as I stated I'd like to play Gwen Stacy, but I have a question. Would it be possible to alter her to have powers, kind of like Spider Gwen, or better yet give her other magical abilities or powers, or do I need to follow the canon lore? Just curious so I don't step on any toes while creating my sheet.

I've already begun work on Dr. Doom (or, rather, Lord Doom) and I'll try to have him up as quickly as possible! However, I'm beginning my college orientation tomorrow, and then starting classes next Tuesday, so if I'm not on as much or slower than I'd like to be, that's why :)

Other: None.



~Personal Information~


Personality:
♦ Fiercely Independent ♦ Demandingly Ruthless ♦ Exceedingly Resourceful ♦ Strongly Determined ♦ Extremely Intelligent ♦ Tremendously Stubborn ♦ Aggressively Violent ♦

Seen by the Dothraki natives to be not only a fiercely independent, but also an extraordinary and quite calculating young woman; Amora is known to be exceedingly polite and generally well-spoken to all those of whom she considers to be both her friends and her family; still quite young by any standard (only considered to be a teenager by the other Dothraki hordes)- Amora, while filled with her own strong determination to not only keep her people alive, but to also keep both the Dothraki and Asgardian culture thriving; showing much pride and confidence in her skills as Khaleesi of her horde. While still severely naive of the new world resting just outside the safety of the horde and Asgard, Amora has shown herself to be an extremely intelligent person, even from quite the young age; quick to understand that while she may not like what it is that lays beyond the borders of her homeland, she is free to pursue her own path by leading her people to a better future- however, not wanting to bring danger on those she loves, she remains weary and takes it upon herself to keep them safe by ruling with a strong hand, and punishing any outsiders who dare stray too close for her liking.

Taking after her mother, Dyra, when it comes to her kindness and consideration towards those around her; Amora is often deeply sympathetic to those she perceives as being oppressed, although her pent up frustration from many years of living with the Dothraki, and falling further from the Asgardian life she used to lead have made her quite capable of being utterly ruthless against those she perceives as the enemy. An extremely brave and exceedingly resourceful young woman; Amora does what she must, and often proves herself over and over to be as fearless as any man, and oftentimes just as skilled (if not better) a warrior than most that come up against her in a fight- her years of climbing through the ranks of the Khalasar helping to make her dangerously aggressive towards any and all that she believes poses a threat towards her people; the young Asgardian showing that she is unafraid to threaten, and even attack those that she believes is a danger to her Khalasar, and all of those who live within it- and while she was initially horrified when she took her first life, Amora’s past, mixed with her sheer determination has helped to harden her heart, making it easier for her to kill without remorse.

While Amora is seen to be both demanding and ruthless towards those whom she perceives to be her enemies, she has always shown to reciprocate the devotion of those who follow and support her in her rule with nothing more than both pure gratitude, and never-wavering compassion; an exceptionally energetic young woman, Amora is often both overly eager and full of life, and while her heart is most times in the right place, her curiosity tends to find her walking into situations that are considered to be quite dangerous, leading her into trouble with the other Khal and Khaleesi more often than she would like- and even as a child, her thirst for adventure and fierce-tempered nature helped her to show others that she was one who was never truly going to be constrained by simple social aspects such as gender roles, courtly virtues, class distinctions, and the expectations set to her by those of the court, her teenage rebellion towards the royal advisers causing her to refuse their suggestions about taking on the role of dutiful woman and wife-to-be; the young and slightly tomboyish child never truly aspiring to be the ‘proper lady’ that her parents had hoped for, instead (more times than none) finding herself compared to and taking after her uncle’s example rather than that of her mother and father.

Also known to be both tremendously stubborn and quite standoffish; Amora is mostly mistrusting, and exceedingly suspecting of strangers and other outsiders who manage to wander too close to the Khalasar in which she rules over- though once she believes and deems a person worthy to be a friend or one of her people, she places her undying loyalty and ever growing trust within them, the young woman willing to put her life on the line in the name of fighting for and defending those that she loves; leaving her blissfully free of both preconceptions or notions regarding those in which she meets. An exceptionally lively child before fleeing the safety of Asgard, Amora’s virtue and spirited indifference to the rules always seemed to be able to make those around her smile; however, the devastating event that rained down upon her and those she loved tore her world apart before her very eyes, shattering her innocence, and destroying any hope that she had left within her heart- nevertheless, despite the nightmares of her past, Amora continues to poses a quite bubbly and light-hearted demeanor; giving her that small spark of life that gives her the ability to defuse most any tension within a situation.

Strengths:
An exceeding skilled fighter due to having lived years with the Dorthaki; Amora is considered to be one of the Dothraki’s most exceptionally skilled warriors, showing both an outstanding acrobatic affinity, as well as a lethal fighting style which has made it easy for her to overpower several opponents with ease- both not only an exceptionally great leader, but also a great strategist- a very keen observer, her exceptionally strong warrior instinct, coupled with the years past of wandering and surviving the lands ravaged by her Khalasar have made her incredibly keen to detail; often allowing her to be able to catch things that most others would simple brush off and pass by.

Eager to learn anything that is presented to her however; Amora, taking after her father and much like many of the other Asgardian's, is able to absorb new information about various different cultures at an exceedingly rapid pace, and as such is considered to be a master linguist among the Dothraki, knowing multiple languages from across the world, and able to adapt to differences in culture and even different societies with enough conversation in regards the subject. An extremely skilled hunter and gatherer; often taking it upon herself to scavenge within the lands and surrounding cities in search for additional food and resources- Amora is a true warrior Princess of the Dothraki, known and seen in the eyes of her people as one of the finest protectors the Dothraki have seen; however at the same time, Amora has a keen understanding of politics thanks to her childhood in Asgard, and continues to develop her natural and strong leadership skills while doing her best to be the strong-willed Khaleesi her people need her to be.

Weaknesses:
While a kind and just leader to her people; Amora's many years of living with the Dothraki, and climbing to the top of the ranks have made her not only extremely violent and ruthless, but also dangerously aggressive towards all and any that she believes poses a threat towards Dothraki and her Khalasar; the young Khaleesi unafraid to threaten and attack first, and ask questions later if she believes that they are a danger to those in which she loves- her tremendously stubborn and standoffish tendencies causing her to be exceedingly distrusting and suspecting of strangers and other outsiders who find themselves wandering too close to the Khalasar in which the warrior rules over; whether this be by accident, or on purpose, the young woman rarely ever giving them time to explain themselves or their actions

Magic Capabilities:
Thanks to her Asgardian heritage, Amora is seen as exceptionally beautiful to many of those who look upon her; and naturally, though oftentimes unintentionally, draws in and gains the attention of those who hold both well, or ill intent towards her- becoming completely aware of this fact after leaving the safety of her homeland, Amora has done everything within her powers to both harness her beauty, and to turn it into a weapon to be used against those around her. Using the magic she has learnt to wield over the many years, Amora has been able to enhance her natural beauty and allure so that men, both mortal or otherwise, are filled with an overwhelming desire for her- along with this, Amora has the ability to enchanted her lips so that a single kiss is sufficient enough to make virtually any man a slave to her will, obedient to her every command and desire, though due to still learning, she is only able to hold this for about a week at a time; however, subsequent kisses enable her to enthrall someone's will indefinitely, making her an expert in the art of seduction, both natural and supernatural.

Ammasing a considerable amount of knowledge over mystical lore; Amora is able to use her sorcery to generate powerful blasts of concussive force, heat, or light; she can also alter her appearance, taking the shape of other humanoid beings or teleport herself and others across great distances, however completing such tasks puts a strain on her body and causes her energy to drain quickly, leaving her weak and in need of rest. Though no longer choosing to class herself as an Asgardian, Amora's abilities when it comes to the mystical art of magic is still high enough to rank her among the top twenty magic practitioners in all of Asgard; with enough power to even cloud the sight of any (including Doctor Strange) who try to catch a glimpse of her from afar.

Weapons & Equipment:
Gathering quite the collection of alchemic equipment into her possession; Amora (like most other Dothraki before her) no longer believes in the value of money, and instead takes everything and anything she wishes or holds a desire for through raiding and pillaging villages and surrounding nations (Free Cities, Slaver's Bay, Lhazar, other Dothraki hordes, etc) that she and her Khalasar come across- this method includes, but is not limited to burning down homes, beheading enemies, taking every last thing that takes her fancy, and enslaving those of whom she has defeated (women, children, men, etc). However, her interest and ever growing collection of these items does not mean that she is by any means an inventor, or alchemical expert of any kind; she is, nevertheless, intelligent enough to operate such things in the most basic and rather effective fashion.

Not putting any stock into the function of the barter system, the Dothraki instead choose to use the honor system: frowning upon "trade", however, honoring the exchange of gifts, such as tributes to them- this system leading to the decision made long ago by the Free Cities that it was often a lot less destructive to just give the Dothraki massive tributes in gold, finished products, and slaves, rather than to try and fight them off... however, if she believes the gift to be insufficient, or finds the horde to be growing restless after not having a good fight in some time, Amora will still choose to give the order to attack- while not reciprocating these "gifts" on an immediate quid pro quo trade system; Amora however will always as a rule keep her word, eventually giving the gift or completing the action as promised, though she and her people will do so in their own time.

In times, however, if Amora has a particular need for a certain resource or item that cannot be obtained through direct raiding, she has been known to resort to actual "barter" by "gifting" slaves her and her Khalasar have captured in return for finished products or special items from the Free Cities or Slaver's Bay, or that she has requested, allowing for her to (on occasion) employ the use of various mystical artifacts, potions, and power objects of which she has managed to collect through her position in the horde.

Brief Biography:
Having been brought up and raised with the expectations of being the perfect young Lady, Amora always fought against her destiny, somehow ending up (nine times out of ten) in some sort of trouble and having to rely on those she had grown up around to bail her out whenever she found herself in need of help- it was during one of these particular instances in her youth when she first felt the pull of love. Having been bailed out for what felt like the millionth time by then Prince and soon to be King, Thor Odinsin; Amora thanked him in the only way that she knew how: giving him her first kiss, and in turn, giving him her heart.

Growing closer to one another as days turned into weeks, and weeks then turning into months; Amora fell further and harder for the man she soon came to the conclusion that she wanted to spend the rest of her days with- though unbeknownst to her; wrought with mischief, and sensing opportunity to cause trouble that no one else saw, the Prince’s brother, Loki, set plan to action and eventually caused her world to turn upside down and her heart to shatter when he ultimately managed to convince his brother of her betrayal with other men within the Kingdom of Asgard. Branded a whore and seductress, and accused of adultery against the only man she had ever truly loved; Amora fled the city walls, running as far and as fast as she possibly could in order to get away from the disgrace and humiliation that was forced down upon her.

Having journeyed as far from the reach of Asgard as she possibly could; Amora found herself in new and unknown territory, the young woman in her desperate plea to survive joining the Dothraki, working her way up over the years past to becoming the first Khaleesi to rule without a Khal by her side. Falling quickly into the Dothraki way of life, Amora chose to live by their rules and standards, rather than the ones that she had grown up with while living in Asgard; all the while throwing herself into their world, and hardening what was left of her heart in preparation for the day that she return to the halls of Asgard to take the life of the man who ruined her own.

~Other Information~


Other: Like most Dothraki before her, and as a sign of her tribal status; Amora has proudly been marked with the traditional paints and tattoo's of her people and culture- the markings strong and unmistakable, each line, scar and tattoo helping to set her apart from the others, and show just who it is her enemies should fear most.

~Theme Song~


Theme Song:
"In The End" by Black Veil Brides.

Lyrics:
In the end,
As you fade into the night,
(Oh whoa oh oh)
Who will tell, the story of your life?

In the end,
As my souls laid to rest,
What is left of my body?
Or am I just a shell?
I have fought,
And with flesh and blood, I commanded an army.
Through it all,
I have given my all, for a moment of glory!
(I have given it all)

In the end,
As you fade into the night,
(Oh whoa oh oh)
Who will tell, the story of your life?
(Oh whoa oh oh)
And who will remember, your last goodbye?
(Oh whoa oh oh)
Cause it's the end, and I'm not afraid...
I'm not afraid to die.
