Question for my next post: who would be the head of House Frey right now?

I would guess the son of whoever danny left in charge... you can probably make his name and backstory

Never mind, I reread the backstory and said that Perwyn Frey was put in charge.

[New Frenco Empire]

Alright, TG'd Keznov.

Alright, TG'd Keznov.

I tried a while back.. got no response

[Lorellion]

That last post took forever to write. Sorry if it's a bit too long. Hope it turned out alright.

Just put another Eddard post in. Rickon will have quite a surprise when he gets to Deepwood Motte.

Okay, so I'll be the first one to say it: there's going to be a Battle of King's Landing very soon. From what I understand, there are now 13,000 Crassius soldiers at King's Landing. I believe, if my numbers are correct, that 6,000 men--3,000 from the Crownlands, 3,000 from Dragonstone--are now positioned on the right of the Blackwater Rush, disconnected from the city. Also, a further 7,000 men from the Crownlands are stationed on the left of the Blackwater Rush, besieging the city.

Under the assumption that these numbers are accurate (and feel free to correct me if they are not), I plan to move the 13,000 soldiers amassed by the Lord Strickland onto the right side of the Blackwater Rush at the first beginning of the battle. What the Crownlanders do during this stage of the battle is entirely up to them.

[New Frenco Empire]

Writing a letter to Lord Strickland? Strickland holds the Dreadfort, ergo, Strickland is a Northern house now. They don't have any power along the Roseroad. Unless, of course, you're going to try and draw them in with the fealty they used to owe the Reach?

I knew that name rang a bell! Anyway, House Strickland of the Dreadfort descends from House Strickland of Tumbleton, the latter being vassals of the Reach. See, Strickland of Tumble is the closest (powerful) Reachman House for Garlan to call upon.

Yes, that was the point about 190 AL, but they were exiled from the Reach and Westeros for being on the wrong side of the Blackfyre rebellion. The remnants that came with the Golden Company were settled in at House Bolton's old seat.

I'll allow it, I guess, but cadet branches seem strange when they aren't in the same region...

My only issue with that is when did Strickland start recruiting those men?

EDIT: Also there are 10,000 outside KL and 3,000 across the rush

Hm. I'm surprised that an entire House was exiled. Anyway, I don't think I have any other major powers in the northeast of the Reach except House Meadows, which serves as a defense against Stormlander invasion. Hm hm hm. We'll say Garlan found another part of House Strickland (not part of the one in the north), and restored them to their old seat after the lord that held it joined the Hightower Revolt.

Literally or figuratively? Literally, he did it in my second-to-most-recent post. It was mentioned towards the end. Figuratively, approximately seven-days-after-death.

The Footlys controled Tumbleton, but whatever you want. It's your backstory.

More of my issue is that to recruit multiple areas quickly is one thing; 10,000 men into one army with 3,000 sellswords then March them into the crownlands may take a few days. My men I took a day or two to muster household and then some levies

Indeed. I approximate the battle to be around 14-17 days in. I may still be off, as logistics are not my strong suit. I reign in the court, not the field.

Logistica Suprema.. is not good with Logistics.. I have been lied to and I do not like it.

[Lorellion]

@Givious: Sorry I keep forgetting to say Targaryen instead of Crassius. I edited the letter in my last post from Medgar to Aegon. Not sure if you read my entire post or not, but Brynden received the letter and brought it to Aegon.

@Logistica Suprema: Do you think Deyna, Petyr, and the Tully guards will make it to King's Landing before the battle?

[The United Realms Of Lords and Paradox]

only enough time to make a short post

[Keznov]

So sorry for my absence...school has taken over my life recently, but I have some spare time now with major tests out of the way...apologies to you Nuxipal, I must've not seen the PM, and to you New Franco for my tardiness...in fact that should actually be given to you all. I will catch up everything and post accordingly. My apologies once more...

[Kuhlfros]

My apologies have been gone hoping to get a post soon

It depends on how fast they're travelling. They may even hear rumors of a Reachmen army as they near the area where the Riverlands, the Crownlands, and the Reach meet.

Also, @The United Realms of Lords and Paradox, where is Sir Evermour getting the money for thes mercenaries?

[Ontorisa]

Quick question:

Am I too late to apply? Like, is the story so far progressed that I would not be able to sneak an application in?

If yes, are you guys doing non-canon houses, or no?

House Name: House Pastrece

Sigil:

House Words: "Loyal, Faithful, Humble"

Head of House:

Isaac 'the Hunter' Pastrece - 19 years of age
Humble, Loyal, Stubborn

Isaac Pastrece rose to the Head of House following the death of George Pastrece. Isaac was mostly inexperienced with the administrative process of the House, unable to properly rebuild the Pastrece economy that had dominated the North-Eastern coast in the past 25-years. Isaac grew up in Kyzerblack, his father George Pastrece encouraged him to learn how to fight, like his father, uncle, grandfather and great-grandfather. When Isaac came of age at 16, his first move was to eradicate the many marauding groups of bandits roaming in the countryside, sacking villages and raiding caravans. Isaac gained fame in Kyzerblack and in the Pastrece lands as a ferocious fighter and was nicknamed 'the Hunter' by both the Highborn and the Lowborn. What Isaac lacks in administration, he makes up in martial, having the experience in commanding and fighting, he makes an excellent regiment commander.

Isaac is 5"8 and weights 155 pounds. He has shaggy brown hair and a small beard with blue eyes. Being a fighter at a young age, he has a scar similar to what Tyrion Lannister had following the Battle of Blackwater, except on his right cheek, not his left.

Relevant House Members:

Salins Pastrece - Isaac Pastrece's Wife
Arsdon Pastrece - Isaac Pastrece's Son, Heir to Kyzerblack, Salmon Mine, Black Coast and Swallow's Town
Patrick Northgale - Head of House Northgale
Catherine Northgale - Isaac Pastrece's Lover
Connor Lyserk - Head of House Lyserk
Brian Lyserk - Isaac Pastrece's Lieutenant
Peter Snow - Isaac Pastrece's Bastard Son

House Seat: Kyzerblack

House's Faith: The Old Gods

Military Forces:

Able to Call upon:
2,000 Heavy Infantrymen
2,500 Light Infantrymen
900 Light Cavalrymen
800 Skirmishers
750 Archers (550 of which are crossbowmen)

Sworn Houses:

House Northgale - Lords of Desertros
House Lyserk - Lords of Bucert

Loyalty: House Karstark, The Warden of the North (Whoever holds that right now)

Short History:

House Pastrece can be traced back to the days of the First Men. Although the Pastreces were apart of that expeditionary force that invaded Westeros, the Pastreces did not elevate themselves to a higher position, insisting that they be the ones to become one of the minor houses to avoid infuriating other, major and noble houses like House Gardener or House Lannister. House Pastrece soon took their place in the North after the formation of House Stark by Bran the Builder. Most of the time, the forces of House Pastrece constantly face off against Wilding incursions and bandit raids in its lands. Later on, the vassalage of House Pastrece was transferred to House Karstark following the heroic efforts of Karlon Stark. From that point forwards, the Karstarks became one of the noble houses House Pastrece began to follow blindly. House Pastrece henceforth, began to build up a reputation of being loyal vassals to their superiors. When the head of House Pastrece, Frederick Pastrece, died in a comatose, the eldest son of House Pastrece, Hasfyre Pastrece, took over for a short period of time before joining Eddard Stark's retinue in King's Landing, where he was killed during the Gold Cloak's Betrayal of Eddard Stark.

Following Robb Stark's failed rebellion, House Pastrece quickly began to re-raise their armies in preparation for a possible Bolton/Lannister invasion of their lands. Thankfully, this never happened and House Pastrece was left alone for years, quietly rebuilding itself under Logshock Pastrece (following the death of Beaufroke Pastrece when House Pastrece was withdrawing from the war) and slowly expanding itself on the North-East coast. Not much happened to the Pastreces during this time until the invasion of Westeros by Queen Daenerys where the Pastreces prepared for another, agonizing war. When the White Walkers passed the wall, Kyzerblack fell to the horde of the dead, killing off most of the house and antagonizing the head of the house at the time, Robert Pastrece. The Pastrece soldiers, those who remained of the 6,950 soldiers who set out from the North, fought like demons at the Twins but suffered massive casualties and were soon moved to the rearguard to rest and regroup. Robert Pastrece himself was killed at the Twins, felled by a Wight blade as he tried to maintain his flank along with his personal guard and a handful of Frey levies.

When the White Walker invasion ended, the Pastrece forces, a ragtag group barely reaching above 600 men, arrived at their old home of Kyzerblack, its walls broken to the ground and all of their hard work over the previous decades, gone, destroyed in a day. Many of the peasants emigrated to the South, to King's Landing or even further, just to not risk another invasion of the White Walkers. The current ruler of House Pastrece, Robert's younger brother, George Pastrece, began rebuilding the Pastrece lands. When George died of a deadly sickness that had infected Kyzerblack and the surrounding lands, Isaac Pastrece, George's young and only son, rose to power in House Pastrece.

RP Example: Gangs of North Hill, Operation Olympian. Oh and NFE + Lunas Legion, you both know me.

Notes: Pastrece is extremely loyal to the Karstarks (if they still exist) and have a small dynasty following the White Walker invasion. As well, House Pastrece supplies food, weapons and horses to the Night's Watch in order to prevent another invasion of Westeros from Beyond the Wall.

HAT - Don't remove, this is for tracking purposes

[Ontorisa]

App's done.

[Theocracy of Catholicism]

App's done.

seems like you'll be directly horizontal to my bear island lol. also, I think the karstarks would have died out, as they were very close to the Wall and didn't have natural defenses like my Bear Island
