[OOC] The Wards of The King- A Song of Ice and Fire Roleplay

[Kaalee]

@NarcissisticPotato Looks good! Accepted!

[ViolentViolet]

The North is strong in her; the Beast and the Savage; the Wolf and the Bear

I am the North; the North is me

Name: Manasa Stark
Nickname: She-Wolf; Charm; Manasa of the Third Eye
Age: 15
House: Stark
Parents: See Morgan Stark
Siblings
Morgan Stark - Twin brother. He was born roughly ten minutes before Manasa.
Kyran - Elder brother, 16 years of age. He shares the bear blood more than the wolf; is brown of hair and blue of eyes.
Personality: Manasa is the type to remain silent and thinking though when angered she grows a deadly cold that resembles that of a dire wolf. She is calculating and merciless, protective and loyal and yet she still remains a satisfying actress. She shows skills in the womanly arts as well as fighting like her brother and the wisdom to lead. She is charismatic when she needs to be, and loving when she chooses and few have ever pinned down exactly what Manasa will do next.
Skills:

• Horseback riding; like her brother she was taught from the age she could first walk to ride a horse, and has become best friends with her animal
• Seamstress; regardless of being of noble birth, Manasa has learned ad is beginning to master the art of mending clothing as well as making her own.
• Anticipation; Manasa is very skilled at reading the mood of a room, the actions and tones of those around her and can easily figure out what it is that she does not know. Lies, secrets and sins are the easiest for her to find in another's language.
• Beast Taming; unlike her brother she has the natural talent to tame the wild. One of her most loyal companions is a wild cat from closer to Castle Black. Back at home she, for some unknown reason, is capable of calming next to any beast she encounters, depending on their own aggression levels.

Religion: The Old Gods - Shows some curiosity toward the Red Priests
Bio: The child was born with eyes that shone a green that vibrated and changed though few of those present at her birth told of how the girl never cried; how she stared up at them with eyes already as intelligent as those of their many beasts. The meister looked upon their mother, Lyanna, and told her with certain confidence that the girl would be a warg and a strong greenseer; few believed him until the girl turned seven. Manasa had wandered from the castle, beyond the wall with their elder brother to see the winter beyond when the bear came out of nowhere and attacked them. No one could figure out why the bear was awake in the winter, and none could understand what happened afterward; the great beast had roared before them, the horses bucked and the girl child fell from her pony into the snow but never cried out. The bear calmed under the gaze of the girl; her eyes flickered that vibrant green and yellow, momentarily matching the bears before the animal nuzzled her face and picked her off the ground. The bear never bothered them again.
Other

• Manasa is a powerful warg and greenseer, still coming into her powers. Only her brothers, mother and father know about this. It has been kept secret from everyone else and the meister present at her birth is long dead.
• She has three animal companions that go everywhere with her; a Linx, a direwolf and a raven
• Her Direwolf is the sole surviving animal of the litter; the she-wolf if called Echo
• The Linx goes by the name Shiva

Tully

Alianne Tully

Played by @Emma

"Lady Alianne has always been quite a phlegmatic child...I've only seen her truly smile around her family."

"Forgiveness is a privilege, and its not something I'm very good at granting. So if you betray me, you're just asking for my retribution. Luckily I'm not ignorant like most girls who handout their trust like fools."

Name: Alianne Tully
Nickname: Called Ally by her sisters. Her brother calls her Amber due to her hair color.
Age: 14 3/4
House: Tully

Parents:
Father - Cyril Tully. Blue eyes, auburn hair, lanky build, overall not much to look at. He is a scholarly man to say the least. Known to be intelligent, strict, and confident. He is not much of a warrior, leaving the heroics and fighting to his younger brothers Vetis and Emerson Tully. Three years before he married Fidelma Redwyne; his lover was a servant woman named Deena, and she gave birth to his illegitimate son Corrick. Deena tragically died a few hours after giving birth. Cyril is 46 years old. He married Fidelma to combine the Redwyne and Tully fleets.

Mother - Fidelma Tully nee Redwyne. Beautiful red hair, brown eyes, fair skinned, and covered in freckles. She is a rather stoic and gloomy woman, who enjoys needlework, and tea. She has had seven children with Cyril, but only three have survived past infancy. She sees her husband's bastard as a nuisance, but she accepts him and treats him like one of her own. She hopes to give her husband a son to be his heir. She is 37 years old.

Siblings:
Sister - Serena Tully is ten years old. She has auburn hair, and light brown eyes. She is overly confident, clumsy, and funny. Serena is tall for her age, and she can usually be found running through the halls, playing practical jokes, or eavesdropping.

Sister - Rosalind Tully is six years old. Wavy red hair, hazel eyes, and lots of freckles, she is like a mini copy of their mother. She is rather shy, and sickly. Follows their mother like a shadow. She was born deaf in one ear, and has terrible eyesight, so she is usually seen squinting. She likes to knit clothes for her dolls.

Brother - Corrick Rivers is Alianne's half-brother. Her father's bastard son. Corrick is nineteen years old, with blonde hair and gray eyes. His mother's name was Deena. She died soon after giving birth to him. He has been raised beside his legitimate sisters, with the same privileges, and care. Treated as if he were also Legitimate by his family, he considers himself lucky. He is a great sword fighter, but not much of a bowman. He is a flirt, and wishes to one day become legitimate, and possibly be his father heir. He likes to gamble, and usually wins. His nickname is Cory.

Other - Four younger siblings all deceased. Alaric died when he was three years old, from complications with his Epilepsy. Isolde died when she was seven years old, from a wasting illness. Lyra died whens she was twelve months old, from pneumonia. And lastly Edmure died when he was two years old, from smallpox.

Other Family:
Uncle - Vetis Tully. Took the black when he was 20 years old, and is now first ranger of the nights watch. He is friendly to everyone, likable and sarcastic. He has dark auburn hair, and blue eyes. Vetis is tall and slim. He is agile and strong for being 44 years old. He is a devote follower of the Faith of the Seven.

Uncle - Emerson Tully is 38 years old, and very handsome. He has light auburn hair, light blue eyes, a well maintained beard, and is attractively muscular. He was 'Master of Ships' up until four years ago when he was granted land of his own. He is now a Landed Knight, and commander of the Tully navel fleets. Emerson is cunning, and ambitious. He basically does everything for the advancement of his house, and though his older brother Cyril is the head of house, Emerson is the one getting things done while Cyril has his nose in a book. He is married to Doline Karstark, and they have two sons together; Criss & Rolf. Criss is seven, and Rolf is four.

Aunt - Doline Tully nee Karstark is 25 years old. Married to Emerson Tully for love rather then mutual gain. She has black brown hair, and brown eyes. Otherwise considered mildly pretty, she takes after her Dornish mother. She likes to eat sweets, and is fond of flowers. She is very caring, and warmhearted. She is unable to have anymore children due to complications after giving birth to her youngest son Rolf.

Other - Alianne also has many aunts, uncles, and cousins on her mother's side of the family.

Personality: Alianne is a mix of her parents personalities, as she is highly intelligent like her father, and stoical like her mother. An old soul type, she is mature beyond her years. She is good at keeping her emotions in check, as controlling her emotions within herself comes naturally. She is rather contemplative and sensible compared to most girls her age. She has a soft side for children, and defenseless animals. Alianne is unusually perceptive, and knows what is expected of her. She does not trust others easily, and is rather cynical of people in general. Not that she comes off as such, she like to portray herself, as polite, and unassuming. For the handful of people that really know her they see her truthful, outspoken, and audacious side.

Her father considers education very important, so she is highly educated, and thus articulate and freethinking. Her mothers raised her with a strong moral background, so to Alianne values fairness and justice quite a bit. She is extremely loyal and protective of those she loves and puts her trust in. She places her family's well being above all others, and doesn't believe she could ever love or be close to people like she is with her family. Alianne does not forgive easily, and betraying her trust is the worst possible thing, as she has no qualms about revenge or getting even. She will hit you where it hurts most.

For those who don't know her, they might see Alianne as a quiet, impassive, composed, and overall boring young lady.

Skills:
- Needlework
- Astronomy
- Equestrian
- Swimming
- Playing Cards
- Writing/Calligraphy
- Archery
- Playing the Harp & Harpsichord
- Book Keeping & running a household

Religion: Faith of the Seven (Truly Agnostic)

Bio: Alianne grew up in Riverrun alongside her siblings. Her father made sure to supply a rigorous education, and her mother made sure Alianne excelled in all the noble lady pursuits. She is deeply protective of her siblings, and is closest with her half brother Corrick, who taught her how to ride, shoot a bow, and play cards.

As a young girl her father would spend hours reading to her, and her sisters. He read books about the stars, history, gods, legends, far off lands, dragons, and much more, resulting in Alianne's love of reading, and astronomy. For the times when he was not at home, letter writing became the means of communication between her and her father, as he traveled from library to library, sending home gifts for his wife and children.

As a little girl her mother would braid Alianne's hair, and take her for walks in the gardens, reciting poems, and praising Alianne for her pretty face, and good manners. As she got older, many afternoons were spent with her mother by the fire, as they embroidered designs on silk. With the deaths of four of her siblings, and her mothers resulting gloominess, Alianne took over as the motherly figure to her younger sisters for the times when her mother couldnt handle it.

Other: Has a pet rabbit named Romilly, and a horse named Merryweather.

@Mivuli If you look under Tully all of those characters (besides Alianne) are open to be claimed/played! I would suggest Corrick, as he is closer to the majorities age range. Face ideas if your interested in him, are this or this.

[AtomicNut]

None of us would mind a sidekick, mind.

[iSuspect]

How could I have missed this roleplay?! I would've loved to join. Still interested if there are spots available.

I think I saw someone looking for a head maiden? Or anything at this point.

Nicely set up for a roleplay. :3
