Hello folks!

It's that time again.

Step into the world of Westeros; take on the plate armor of a Knight, the cloaks and daggers of a Spy, the desperation of the lowborn, the grand schemes of the highborn, or the oath of the Night's Watch. Take control of an entire Great House, or a lowborn servant risen high through the power of cunning and their own will. Whoever you choose, be ready: for this is a Game none of us are assured to win, let alone survive.

Game Overview
  • The IC setting will take place well before the events of the series/show.
  • Consider this an Alternate Universe; canon is our starting off point, not our end point.
  • Some canons will be held in GM NPC capacity for storytelling purposes.
  • This is not a NRP. Think other PCs are your greatest threat? Just wait.
  • Advanced standards; collaborative storytelling at it's finest.
  • You're assumed to be an adult by submitting a character for this game; please act like one.


Rundown
Most importantly this game will continue the tradition of a hybrid approach of sandbox and storyline RP all our prior games have had. However, and differently than any other GoT game before, the 'main event' to this game is set before we even get started with an IC. As the title suggests, this game would draw heavily from established canon regarding Robert's Rebellion. This means some canon characters would be 'up for grabs' and others will not. It doesn't mean you cannot recreate a house from scratch. We are still figuring out how best to include several central characters. Though people like Rhaegar and Varys would not be open for play, possibilities are legion. So go ahead, plot and scheme against your fellow players.

Any questions, or comments, you might have are welcome. GMs for this newest installment are @Ruby and myself, who will also be picking up House Lannister.

Oh my, I do like Robert's Rebellion as a setting. Can I ask whether you're going to put up a list on claimable canons or handle them on a case-by-case basis? And either way, is my number one man Ser Arthur Dayne up for grabs?

Case by case, only because there's SO MANY.

I see no reason Dayne couldn't be applied for.

To clarify the OP a little; Sini and I's House Lannister...we're not planning on any canons. We're starting it up from scratch, as it is in the early stages. We could add a nod to canon here or there, but mostly an OC House Lannister.

Mild interest in an alternate interpretation of Mace Tyrell, or a OC Baratheon. I won't make any commitment until I see the OOC, however.

I do have an interest for an OC Targaryen if that is allowed (to compliment non-playables like Rhaegar)

Events aren't likely to be kind to the Targaryens, much like canon.

A competent Mace Tyrell? What's next, a not stupid Balon Greyjoy?

Balon has way more problematic traits than "stupid".

Well, I am happy to see so much enthusiasm.

While we wait for more people to show their interest, you may expect an OOC by next week.
