I will have to discuss with Didact if my posting frequency being obtuse is grounds for denial or not, however. Meanwhile, I have posts to write and other things to do.

@Gowi How often do you think you'd be able to post? At least once a week or are you thinking less?

@DrunkasaurusRex Great sheet, go ahead and put it in the CS tab, you're accepted.

I'm glad to see you came over to my side of the force! But really I dont want you to fee obligated to play her and if you think you'll end up losing interest I'd still recommend doing something else. But if you really do like the idea then awesome cause I'd be excited to see that plot play out!

It would really depend. I’m going through a lot of things right now in my home life and I’m actively engaged in a few RP’s right now— but I would try to post sequences weekly, yes, but given my past history I have fluctuated between once a week-to-once every two or three. I don’t want to disappoint anyone, of course, but I will extend that yourself and Dredigan have been somewhat convincing that I am working on a CS.

@Gowi Well once you work out a sheet, I think a post once every couple of weeks from you would be fine; as long as we keep getting word from you that you're still interested and still in the game. If you want you could also open up House Baratheon a bit to let other players have minor POVs in the House, in case anyone wants to play one of the bastards for example.

Don't feel obligated to join the game just because, but if you want to go ahead and play I'll tweak some of the backstory once you have your sheet together.

Yeah, I only really intend to POV one member of the house— her introspection, concerns, and defenses (against the Vulture King?). Shireen might even be privy to making Robert’s bastards as errant members of the house; similar to how House Blackfyre happened with the Targaryens. I’d definitely be communicative and collaborative, especially if we have some sort of discord to chat on during off hours.

Here is what I got so far:

@MrDidact The character's named are all in running for the Frey seat those with other families names are still from Walder's genealogy, but are minor houses rarely mentioned in the books. Steffon the second is the son of Walder's Grandson Steffon the first through Walder's second wife. Jenn rivers is a bastard born grandchild of black walder. Mable and Malkor are children of Bryan Frey. Walder Haigh and Rickard Wylde are great grandchildren of Walder Frey as well through his forth and fifth wife. I only meant in the deaths to imply the first wife's descendants had killed each other off as well as the grandparents. In a family tree this complicated it ends up that most houses have some connection to the Frey House. I'll remove Walder Haigh and Rickard Wylde to simplify my sheet. If anyone wants to be a frey there are still 68 other great grand children or more who could try to claim Riverrun my focus is on Malakor and Mable only because Malakor managed to retake Riverrun temporarily. Jeffon is the proper successor after the blood bath, but almost all claims are weak. Jeffon is therefore not only attempting to clear the lands of Malakor, but stop any challenges to his position.

Thanks for your patience with my CS I never realized how hard it would be to make sense of the Frey family tree. Indeed the Vance house has a stronger claim to riverrun then the Frey's.

This is still a work in progress, I'll be uploading sheets for Jaime and at least one or two other major characters. @MrDidact hopefully this is good enough to be accepted for now though, if there are any discrepancies please let me know and I'll work them right out!

@Gowi Well Shireen and Edric seemed pretty good friends so that would seem in character for her. Having Gendry as leader of their armed forces would be neat too.

Your sheet is shaping up pretty well so far.

@Masterkeun Ah I see, yeah the Frey house is quite complicated so it's not reasonable to have you describe the whole surviving family but the significant story ones should suffice. There is definitely enough ambiguity to have other players come in as Freys if they wish. I like the details about Malkor trying to ally with the Mountain Clans. Should prove interesting.

I think all you need to do really is flesh out your mains, especially Malkor out a bit more and clean up the formatting and you should be good to go. I really like your idea, and it's no trouble to give you our input on it. Thank you very much for your diligence and understanding.

@Dredigan The only discrepancy I can see, is one of their holdings being listed as Darry. I had Darry be stripped from the House Lannister and given to a bastard cousin of the House Darry, since it seemed likely to me that House Lannister had to face some kind of fine for Cersei and Tywin's crimes and I think the River Lords would not have liked having Lannisters have land in their region. It also amps up the potential rivalry between the River Lords and the West a bit.

Other than that it looks fine and you can go ahead and put it in the CS tab and keep working on it. Really look forward to seeing what you end up with. Plus you're the Co-GM, you have certain privileges haha.

*fanboy mode* did Brienne and Jaime settle down and have kids?

Just wanted to say I've started my character ^_^ She's going to be a Theon Greyjoy bastard (obviously conceived before Ramsay turned him into Reek).

For equipment, do they have to be super specific? My character's more the pick up whatever she can find type, so while she may have a sword one day, the next it'd be gone.

@Greenie Interesting concept! I imagine it would be hard for Theon to do so after he became Reek :P

Your equipment doesn't have to be super specific unless you have unique and specialized gear. If it's just general gear, you can just mark the essentials. For characters who don't need much equipment at all since they're diplomats/money men/statesmen the equipment field can just be blank.

@MrDidact No problem I'll take Darry off the list. I'll have to make the revisions a little bit later because I've been reduced back to mobile for a little while.

Also to answer your question about Jaime and Brienne, I would like to keep that ambiguous until the start of the game, so long as you're willing to give me the right to determine breiennes story from the end of the novels? I can make a CS for her if you like but I didn't intend on using her as a major character.

@Masterkeun The sheet seems to be really coming together, but if you intend for Malkor to be a POV he should have the same fields filled out as the others. I assume you're collaborating with @supertinyking for House Mudd, but are you also doing so with @bloonewb for House Bolton? I'm not really sure if the Boltons would be given a Frey hostage since they were collaborators, and why the Boltons would torture him.

@Dredigan All I have filled out about Brienne right now is that she's alive somewhere with a sweet new sword, and presumably she's head of House Tarth now since I don't know if there are any other heirs to Lord Selwyn. Other than that, yeah have free reign with her history from the end of the books, and I'm curious to see what you come up with!

@Greenie Did you have any interest playing other Greyjoy characters as well?

Malkor is an NPC. I assumed with the sheer number of Frey's one was given to every house. I am working with Supertiny, but I hadn't realized anyone was acting as the Bolton's and assumed they'd torture Malkor as they are best known for doing so. I'll Message Blooneweb to ask permission then change it if he disapproves.

Ah I see, that clears it up. Well the sheet implies Malkor was conditioned to hate the Tullys and Starks by the Boltons, but the question remains of why a house known as Frey collaborators would be given a Frey ward? Did the Tullys arrange the deal or did the Freys do so? And if the Boltons and Freys were allies in the past why would they torture him?

Ramsay was crazy enough to do that, but I don't know if the new generation of Boltons would neccesarily be as sadistic or random in their torturing. I don't think he needs to have been tortured to disdain noble families, being born a child of a house beset by scheming and violence would be enough.
