The Iron Throne
The seat of power for the Seven Kingdoms of Westeros....
Forged by man and dragonfire it has inspired only fear, rebellion, and greed throughout the realm....

Formerly another roleplay, and before that a region roleplay, this one takes place a year after the events of the previous one which can be found here: viewtopic.php?f=31&t=318538. We agreed to start over and this were here now. The royal family is descended from the union of a daughter of Tommen and a son of Shirreen, thus accounting for their trademark blue eyes and black hair. Not every bit of the history is written down however, so feel free to ask a question about our lore. Please do note this is a work in progress. If you wish to join now, please be willing to help out with figuring out the plot.
Plot: We all know the danger of playing the game of thrones, a slip can cost you your life, blind trust can result in betrayal, so many dangers, yet so many willing to play it. Taking place on year after the events of 500 AC, Lord Hand Lyonel is attempting a talk with Baelor Targaryen, Emperor of New Valyria; while Corlys Baratheon lives with the knowledge that he has killed one of his brothers in arms: Ser Benjen Paege. Baela Targaryen lies on Dragonstone, while Lord Tyrell attempts to have her banished from the realm, and Queen Cassana Baratheon looks for a way to outwit her cousin, the Hand. While they play the Game of Thrones, in the Frostfangs mountain range, the Others rise once more, a seemingly endless army that for the past 201 years prevented any access beyond the Frostfangs, to see what lied within the Lands of Always Winter. The Lord Commander of the Kingsguard trains the Queen's twin brother to be his successor and remains unaware of what young Corlys has done.
Tensions rise in King's Landing, and everywhere it seems. The Others rise once more, and dragons seemingly come to life in the Riverlands, causing the mass migration of smallfolk. One slip is all it takes to mess up, but can you succeed? Can you play the game of thrones and win? Or can you put aside the petty games and convince others to do the same? This is The Game of Thrones, and not everyone is exactly loyal to Lyonel, as Lord Tyrell would gladly rise if Cassana tried to take what she believes is hers. So many oppertunites to play the game, and a great tourney to come, the winner of the Melee to be granted a white cloak. You must be careful, you must strike hard, fast and right. Some may wish to see the world in flames if they could rule over the ashes. Do be careful, there are no restarts when you're dead.

You have 3 warnings for rules. You can work off warnings, but 3 and me and the co-ops will be having a talk about you. You can work them off, but don't push your luck.
1: All other Nationstates rules apply
2: No Godmodding. Keep it realistic people, no part of Westeros or Essos can field a million people at once.
3. One liners are not recommended, you won't be warned, but try to get more than 2 lines at least
4. All rule breakers are to be reported to me or the Co-Op's
5. Obey your liege lord. Say you are playing the Umber's and Lord Stark orders you to do something, don't act like you can just disobey him without punishment. This rule will come with no warnings, but do remember, Lord Stark would have every right to march to Last Hearth and destroy you.
