Blood Runs Over Westeros: A Game of Thrones RP

@bluetommy2

Sometimes the sheer thought of going "Oh fuck, that was right, Daenys has a dragon too" also scares me :P

There shall be a Dance of Dragons, me thinks.

@Asura

He's a couragous, ballsy, and definitely, a really sort of heroic character, he does represent a moral good, but he has his cracks, and I love playing with that. Some cynicism, some issues in sometimes understanding the true concequences of some very, very big actions. I have played with killing him in true George RR Martin fashion, but he isn't stupid, and hasn't fucked up. Yet. He definitely rolls in his own Kingdom with a lot of authority and respect, but he is still young, and has to learn, as well as experience. He is Lord Hand (and technically, still is), and some of his things have come by luck, though he is no Jon Snow- he knows what to do, and his sister, ever the budding Tyrell female, knows how to steer him to do the right thing, while she pulls strings. Get rid of Alerie, and Garland would do a good effort for a while, but would lack the contacts to really play the game to it's fullest. I love him for that, he really does represent a side of doing the right thing, and has made mistakes, not being afraid to say it, not being afraid to know he is flawed and problematic, though he enjoys pleasures, alongside the many talents he has- falconry, tourneys, feasts, women (not to mention a Yunkish whale, which was an impressively drunken one-night-stand come diplomacy), and politics, as well as running Kingdoms. He's a mixed bag really, and if a brown-curly haired, brown eyed young Lord doesn't make his mark, you're probably Northern. Which I'd imagine they would say, "This is the literal reason we dislike Southerners." :D

But I do love it. At the start, he was rather merciful, rather chivalric and honourable to others. The world he's in has changed so much, he has had to get with it, and even he's become hardened by the events that happened...being almost killed and stabbed in the fucking armpit at the Battle of the Kingswood saying it all, really. He is afraid of Baela, which is why he loves her so much, though he shows remarkable courage even when he was close to dying/getting killed. He is pretty driven, and he is mostly driven by family, to always sustain the Tyrell name in a position of power, as well as do the right thing, rather than be power-hungry and obsessed to go one step beyond and take the fucking Throne for themselves. They're smarter than that.

Nope, Garland's one step ahead. He is exceptionally beautiful by the standards of the Reach, and he has been pretty shameless, with lots, and lots of women, everywhere. Imagine Loras, but not gay, pretty much is how I'd go about describing him (though he's definitely very quick, he's smart, but not like his sister is). They call him the "Young Rose" because he's quite popular, and if you're a young Reachwoman, and the dashing and chivalrous Lord Tyrell comes by to visit....well. He's 21, after all, I am planning to make him have his 22nd name day on his return, as he is rather on the far side of that now. That was his past life though :D

Believe it or not, there is an appearance of him that my friend drew, and I might open my next post with his drawn face.

But, as aforementioned earlier, succession would be tricky. And the Tyrells...they don't want to see a Tully King, married regularly to the Queen. It's a threat. A big one. One that....does not serve their purposes, not unless they get what they want, which is a matrilineal, or a incestuous agreement, or an agreement that makes Rhaenyra's children Targaryen-born. Muhahah.

@Asura

Garland is banging one. Garland is very attractive, and has lots, and lots of bastards he has no idea about, the mothers haven't even going to go back. Yet he is driven by Baela, which says a lot, really, about what he sees in her warrior-like capabilities, and her fierce personality, a real foil to his charming wit. An alliance, of Fire, and Roses.

Fuck, this raises a shitload of existential questions, such as:
1) A dragon, in the Reach, is a piss poor idea, if it isn't caged or restrained somewhat. It's an agricultural fucking land.
2) Who does the dragon go to upon death? A Tyrell son, or back to family? It's half-Targaryen, half-Tyrell blood, and can that be a dragonrider? The Dragon Rose?
3) If it were left to it's own devices, how pissed/angry would people be when it burns people/animals?

Catryn Tully. Because given the chance, even Alerie Tyrell, would definitely bang. She looks badass as fuck.

I haven't even hinted at Alerie's sexuality, for all we genuinely know, she could totally be like Yara, up for anything really....but you don't ask, you don't get. Haha. I'd imagine she is likely a lot like Margaery, just kinda "Meh" when she sees it. Both yours, and the North are looking seriously good, it will give some fresh air to this RP, and as you see, there's a lot of lore and a lot of bound story to keep it running.

@BigPapaBelial

I have been teased an element of it. I shall give nothing away, but he might be right in saying that.

Blood Runs Over Westeros: A Game of Thrones RP

@Gowi

You'd have to go back quite far into the Tyrell household. I would imagine someone like Lord Merlin Tyrell, or Garland's great grandad (dad of Jaime "The Green" Tyrell, who was dad to Gregor, Moryn (Garland's father) and Willas Tyrell- so not a current one, but a Rose that joined the Fish long, long ago.

@Gowi

None that House Tyrell has. Though that said, Alerie might be in the market for a husband. :D

73? Or something. Battle of King's Landing isn't mentioned really- nor some of what Daenys was up to. He was a significant factor, and started these events, but is presumed dead right now. TLDR, the Tyrells held back the Crakehalls and delivered a sound defeat...albeit at the cost of the insecurity of King's Landing, big losses on both sides, and Rhaenyra/Baela taking the chance to escape after torching the walls. The Crakehalls have been raided, both by the Ironborn, AND Yunkish slavers too. They've been hit fucking hard, and ironically, more of it comes from Alerie's plotting to arrange that with a Yunkish slaver.

Hahahahah! :D

Well, you would after you know, getting destroyed in the War of the Five Kings! That and a healthy suspicion of any Westerlander....
