Hey, I'm just curious to how explicit this is going to get?

Not as explicit as the actual books/show. It'll mostly be a lot of 'Fade To Blacks', if you get what I'm saying.

Lol yeah. Thank you

IC tab is back, woo! We'll wait until we have a few more characters and then we'll start roleplaying!

So, how will combat or killing other characters work?

Dice. Most likely, yes.
I'll update the rules in a bit and make sure to explain it properly.

Nice - this looks like it will be fun n'such.
Aww -... Lack of explicity.
No matta' - let'segogo whenever y'all be ready.

If it were up to me, this'd be the most explicit role play out there, but, I've got to keep it within the rules of the site! I'm sure it'll get sort of explicit from time, to time. But, as I said above; we'll mostly have to resort to a... 'fade to black' scenario whenever a sex scenes (or the like) should occur.
I've got some stuff to do, so, I'll be back on tonight. I'll also be updating everything to make it seem more proper and neat. Hopefully we get a few more applicants before I come back, we need as many as we can get!

Alrigh' alrigh', we'll start tonight then. And also - yeah sure that's all good n'stuff, don't worry. Apart from that though, we must paint this in true Song of Ice and Fire colours.

Also that simultaneously froze the pipes and burnt the house down.
Sorry for being so morbid in my questions, but does all the RPing have to be done here?
I ask because, lets say, someone wanted to kill my character and make it quite obvious how and when they would like to do it. I'm not going to godmod, but I'm still not going to trust that guy when he invites me to look at the pit of death from his balcony.
Alternatively, if we decide that you just go along with your death but you were planning on doing something else anyway it locks your character into their death as, if you were to follow through with your plan, you're not following the rules.
As for solutions, I think that messaging the characters you need to message and then copy-n-pasting it after the deed might work as then:
·We know it was planned.
·The victim won't know unless they're told, so no godmodding.
·Makes the RP less messy.
...sorry for being annoying.

Hmm. I see your point.
I'd like the majority of the role playing to be done here, yes. But, if you'd like to discuss something with a role player then you can always private message 'em and have a conversation on what is going to go down with your characters.
I guess you can always resort to dice as well. Like;
Let's say my character is planning to kill your character through an act of betrayal. When I ask you to take a 'walk along a cliff' with me, you could use dice several times in hopes of cheating your death.
So you could roll a dice and if you get a certain number or whatever- your character will go walking a top the cliff with my character. Get me?
You've raised an interesting question. When we start actually role playing, I guess we'll establish how we will deal with these scenarios.

2 things
1. which free city is closest to the western shore of Westeros, or if not which one is closest to the highest un-colonized mountain?
2. would it be alright if my character was a foreigner to Westeros?

Hey!Morbuskid said:
The Free Cities are in Essos, which is a continent to the east of Westeros. So, none of the free cities are close to the western shore of Westeros, I'm afraid.
Here's a map of The Free Cities. The closest to Westeros would be Tyrosh, Pentos, Braavos, and perhaps Myr as well. Norvos is in a very mountainous area, so if you'd like a place with mountains then that'd be the place for ya'.
And, yes, of course. If your character is a foreigner, that is fine with me!

To be honest i thought that most would be more inland.
Would it be alright if my Character was actually a man becoming a king in his kingdom (NOT IN WESTEROS) but to do so he must carry his flag through Westeros to the highest mountain and then get a Westeros power's flag as a form of alliance to bring back to his land still in tact to complete the final task to claim the Throne of his dead father. If you don't like the idea then how about i just give a good sized story to cement the idea?
If not then i am probably just going to be a warrior with a caravan come to trade their strong steel and metal ores for Iron wood.

I like the idea, but, Westeros is the only place in The Known World that has a 'King'. Everywhere else; Free Cities, Slaver's Bay, Qarth, Asshai have leaders and lords, but, they have no Kings or Queens.Morbuskid said:
You can tell me your story if you wish. And I'll see if I could get it to fit in with everything else!

I am going to write as much as possible and try to make as much sense of it. I am just going to put this in story form.
During the time before Westeros was even colonized, lived kingdoms who thrived off war. Each kingdom had the same belief in one god and they believed that this god would not be happy and bring forth the harvest, (Harvest= something like a golden age to them with more agricultural means when the land is thriving in plants, animals, and fresh running water that they believe is a gift from the divine or the one god.), until the divided kingdoms were one great empire. However one Kingdom rose and had decided that the war they had against each other was more so destroying the harvest that they so needed and wanted. Finally after 80 years of blood shed and needless death the kingdoms had became the empire they dreamed of through diplomatic means. Finally death had little to no purpose of the warriors and they now were happy to slaughter those against the Empire. The Empire was officially named, "Terra di Dio", (So people wouldn't use star wars references xD ). The Bellum family was the longest living family to be in power of the Empire which they had always kept in a classical age of nothing but advancement and fortune. Soon enough the armies stretched far and wide and the King was always trained to be elite and had to finish 10 tasks to appease the divine before he could truly become King. One of those many tasks were to take the empire's flag and However Kings, people who are becoming soldiers or just regular people were always taught in universities, either rich or not. The flourishing Empire finally became open and more social as it traded with other lands but little did it know of the Westeros power arising and then cementing it's place in those lands. So now a king has died and a new King needs to arise to the throne but there are many newer powers in Westeros and some are not so inviting. The future of the empire now lies in the new King's hands to complete a task of Endurance, strength, bravery, and a simulation of conquest. If he is able to succeed, he will claim his ancestors throne and open up great trade to the land of Westeros but, if he fails then his families glory dies and the Empire becomes seperated once more.

You've got yourself an interest back story and premise there, well done man- it's quite creative. But, I'm afraid it is to expansive to fit it in anywhere. I've already broke a few rules of the 'Game Of Thrones' lore, and I want to try and make this as lore-friendly as possible.Morbuskid said:
You could perhaps be a merchant from one of The Free Cities. We don't know much about certain Free Cities, so, you could bend the rules a little there and come up with an interesting back story for your merchant, if you'd like.

Really?TheSword said:
I thought you were one of those guys who thought detail was everything, I DIDN'T KNOW THAT YOU WANTED 3 SENTENCES! GOD xD .
I am just trying to make the RP a little more interesting for players. Plus i really don't want to be a stupid mercenary or knight that dies off later besides if you really want then here give me 1 more chance to explain what i was going to do. If not then i guess i am just gonna have to die off sooner or later then be on my way from this RP to another which is totally fine with me but this Series just interests me because i like Mythology and medieval related topics.

You can go ahead and expand on your story if you'd like, but, I'm not sure if I'll be able to work with it. I want to be as lore friendly as possible. If you want to come up with another character then that's fine, if you want to find another RPG then that's fine.Morbuskid said:
We'd be happy to have ya', but, your story just wouldn't fit in anywhere that I know of. I'm sorry man. :[

There's a difference.Morbuskid said:
The only breaking of lore I did is the ability for women to be the lords of a house. Which in GoT, only a man can be the leader of a house. You've come with with an incredibly detailed piece of work that revolves around ancient civilizations, and Gods, and the like.
They are both different examples of lore-breaking. I've only broken a small bit of lore so that players could make whoever they want to make when it comes to a man or a woman being the lord of a house. You've come up with something entirely new. Get me?
