Fair enough. I'm down for this reboot so long as it occurs within this thread/collection. Not resetting back to zero OOC again

(By that I mean just deleting threads and making new ones or change the titles to archieved or something *shrug*)

To be perfectly honest with you, I'm pretty sure I don't have the power to delete or create threads anymore and I don't know why. I'm sure we can still use this OOC chat though to keep up the counter.

Really? I think I can make a new thread in the area (the button's still there unless you're saying it doesn't work :/ ) but cool cool. So long as we stick to this OOC, I'm game

Jester, you might wanna read up a bit on the Discord cause we've all been brainstorming like crazy.

Blackfyre

Eh, honestly I'll just let you guys fill me in on what's going on. I trust you (though, I guess really just you, Centurion and Leusis) to not go too crazy with things and balance things out

You've put your faith in the wrong people: Leusis is still away, TAC has disappeared and most of the crazy things are my fault.

Ah well, then I can just get the summary and a red sharpie and just go "nope" if things go too crazy

Oh wow, so Daemon won the Blackfyre Rebellion? Also, surprised that Stark and Baratheon got to keep their titles and land. Not as much for Arryn as perhaps the Black Dragons didn't wanna go after the Eyrie or something. Do they have battle ready dragons? Can't think of any other reason the North didn't just immediately declare independence. What happened with the stags?

Arryn got to keep their titles because Daemon knew that the knights of the Vale wouldn't accept a Sisterman as their overload, as such a young Lord Arryn would be given regency by Lord Sunderland and Sunderland would act like a shadow-LP as Lord-Protector of the Vale.

House Baratheon isn't mentioned much in the rebellion so I'd imagine they remained neutral up until it was clear that Daemon was winning at which point they rose their banners for the Black dragon.

Stark is a bit more difficult o be honest I just kept them in the realm ro make things easier, there's a chance they could have gone independent.

No dragons.

Ah, could the North break away during the RP? Would be interesting considering the Blackfyres lack dragons :/ This is probably a no, but are all the Targs dead or imprisoned? Also what's that territory that used to be the south of Westerlands now?

The Targs would probably be exiled somewhere with the descendants of Bloodraven though who knows exactly where, we'll have to discuss it. The south Westerlands should be part of the Northmarch, the middle bit of the Reach was actually a mistake.

We've got people eyeing up Reyne, Hightower, Exiled Martell, Bittersteel and Peake. Any idea who you'd want to play?

Also, surprised that Bittersteel didn't get to be LP, are they the default Hand of the King? Put me down as tentative Starks. I'm leaning more towards the Karstark and Umber, but I do wanna be a large part of that independence angle. We'll see once things are more concrete how I feel about things.

Fordee wrote this up for basic Stark lore for the moment.

North ; Lord Stark's sister was bethrothed to King Blackfyre's heir ( who is a right I'm uncultured ). Something went wrong. She was raped and murdered in the streets of Kings Landing. The situation is very mysterious and Lord Stark wasn't given proper answers to what really happened to her. Then, on good behaviour, House Butterwell is given land that is rightfully owned by The Starks. This pisses of Lord Stark even more. The (last?) Targaryens arrive in The North and beg Lord Stark to back their claim to The Iron Throne. He does just that. He and The Targaryens ask The Greyjoys to join them, and because they are like "yeh lets fuckin kill shet", they agree to join this unlikely alliance.

eeeeeeeeeeeeehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, can I say nay to the backing of the Targs if I take the Starks? I honestly don't mind the Greyjoys Alliance, but I hardly want to get involved in another dragon war when my dude can just be King of the North. :/ What did the Blackfyre take anyways?

What if The Targaryens are promising you your independence if you help win back their kingdoms? I mean, The Blackfyres will never tolerate your independence. Maybe... allying with The Targaryens is your only choice? Maybe Lord Stark doesn't really want to. He just wants to avenge his sister and not make his people look like fools. But, allying with The Targaryens will help achieve that?

Nah, full defensive war. Have a garrison at the neck and the majority of the army as rapid deployment units against amphibious invasion. Honestly we probably wouldn't even need to raise that much levy given the Targ's insurrections in the south and shenanigans from displaced houses like the Martell Lord Stark is a realistic man. He knows in his soul he should challenge House Blackfyre to trial by combat, but a member (not Daemon) might very well just tie him to a column and make him fight fire . So he'll just dig in and make any invasion pay with blood for every inch of land that's not deemed worth the time by most Southerners

Forgot to answer this: Bittersteel aren't LP because Harrenhal and a bit of surrounding land has actually been transferred to the direct control of the Crownlands.

Okay. That sounds good. I don't want to force anything on anyone, since a role play is controlled by its players. So does everything sound good besides allying with The Targaryens?

"THE YEAR IS 226AC,

In The Crownlands; House Blackfyre is almost 30 years strong. Aegon Blackfyre ( Daemon's ELDEST SON ) rules over Westeros with an iron fist. Aegon isn't a bad ruler, but he is known for favouritism. He rewards those who are loyal- even when they don't even seem too loyal anymore and he bullies those who he sees as an annoyance. His arrogance and naivity is worsening as he approaches his 50s. His eldest son, and heir, 'Aemond' is a I'm uncultured. The type of I'm uncultured who kicks kittens and throws tantrums when he doesn't get to kick any more of them. Aegon has three more children... all of whom are like angels compared to their elder brother. On the day THE RP begins, Aegon recieves a raven telling him that one of his kingdoms ( THE NORTH ) has declared its independence, and it looks like The Iron Islands will soon follow suit.

In The Stormlands; House Baratheon are pissed off. Really pissed off. Over the last few years, more and more of their lands is being taken away from them. House Peake and House Yronwood are being rewarded for good behaviour by House Blackfyre- and thus they are being given holds that rightfully belong to The Baratheons. Lords an' ladies who once called The Baratheons their lord-paramounts are flocking to Storm's End and complaining that they now have to "follow the lead" of houses that aren't from The Stormlands.

In Dorne; as Summer enters its sixth year, Dorne suffers. A drought is in affect. Great Houses have advised that no one should travel the sands by themselves, else they will die of thirst. House Yronwood and House Dayne are at each others throats. Both are fighting to be Aegon's favourite. Both are fighting to be the rightful rulers of Dorne. However, House Martell ( who has been in exile for three decades ) are back... and they too want what Yronwood and Dayne want.

In The Reach; Although they used to all be close and tightly knit, The Hightowers and The Peakes have seen some recent tension. Similar to the troubles in Dorne, both want to rule over all of The Reach which has been divided into three since the end of House Tyrell. House Hightower and House Peake want to reunify The Reach under their rule and are suddenly starting to see each other as threats. They are both vying for House Osgrey to join with them, however, The Osgreys know that whoever they side with will probably come after them next since they TOO will be seen as a threat standing in the way of a united Reach.

In The Westerlands; The Reynes and Tarbecks rule is a fine one. However, cracks are beginning to show. The newest generations of smaller Western houses laugh in the faces of House Reyne and House Tarbeck. They call them "pitiful", "stupid", and "weak". Some lordlings even joke about restoring The Lannisters. At the beginning, The Reynes and Tarbecks thought these calls were just harmless japes, but they have since grown more serious. House Reyne and House Tarbeck are a bit fed up and must desperately try to mend The Westerlands before the cracks grow larger...

In The Riverlands; House Butterwell rule over this region. They are Aegon's favourites and will constantly praise House Blackfyre for its "kindness". However, The Butterwells aren't really in-control. In fact, they are basically puppets for House Bracken who are pulling their strings from behind the scenes. Whilst The Butterwells are mostly weak and blinded by false pride- The Brackens are a strategic and physical powerhouse who truly decide every little fate of The Riverlands.

In The North; Lord Stark's sister was wed to Aegon's heir. However, she was recently raped and murdered weeks before their wedding in King's Landing. Stark has yet to get an explanation as to what exactly and how exactly this happend to his little sister. ATOP OF THAT, Aegon has been casually giving Northern land to The Butterwells due to their good behaviour. This has pushed Lord Stark to the edge and right as the roleplay begins... he declares The North as an independant country and himself as its KING.

In The Vale; Lady Arryn has fond memories of her aunt Alys, who was wed to a Targaryen and butchered because of it. It has been thirty or so years since her death but she still thinks of her. The Arryns may have official control over The Vale Of Arryn, but House Sunderland grows increasingly powerful and they cockily express that they will soon rule all of The Vale. So when the only living Targaryen arrives at The Bloody Gate and begs Lady Arryn to help them regain their throne, so says... "why not"?

In The Iron Islands; have been quiet for quite some time. The last thirty years have been one of peace for them. However, House Greyjoy wants more. They want action, and bloodshed. They feel as if three decades of peace has made them and their fellow Ironborn grow sort of soft. So, when they hear that The North plan to declare independence- The Ironborn ally with them and do the same. It has been too long since a King sat in the seastone chair.
