Game of Thrones ~ Legacy (OOC/Open)

[Ontorisa]

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

Damn, so. The Pastreces would be the dominant House there?

Which means, I get Karhold..?

Karstarks married into the Thenn's, Alys married Sigorn creating House Thenn. Depending if Harrion was killed in the south, House Thenn would be lords of Karhold

Would be interesting to have a war for the Karhold.

Pastreces serve whoever holds Karhold so...

I guess House Thenn would own Karhold. Which means House Pastrece would be vassals of House Thenn.

I'm kinda irritated that my house wasn't listed with everyone else's on the first page

@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?

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?

using the royal treasury which was transferred to houses account after a 25% bribe

Well Deyna brought quite a few guards with her that could be quite helpful during the siege, but it may not be realistic for them to enter a city that's being sieged.

Oh shit, I forgot about the siege, that means Jorin is trapped in there. Oh well, I'd better play nice with the Tyrells lol

[Senkaku]

The Crassius/Targaryen besiegers should probably just avoid an assault that could go awry and wait the city out. They can keep getting food from the Crownlands and the Blackwater, while denying King's Landing the land and the sea. Eventually the peasants will starve and if they don't rebel and open the city gates, possibly with the gold cloaks or Targaryen loyalists aiding them, then Garlan's men may starve before the power of the Reach can be brought to bear.


Edit: or you could dispatch Rhaegal or Drogon to incinerate the soldiers on the walls and storm the city.

Also looking at some 10,000 Targaryen troops vs some odd 3,000 defenders

My tactic would have been to wait it out on Dragonstone and let the Tyrells come to him. When they finally did, let the dragons do all the work while the armies are exposed at sea.

Which follows the old adage you need at least 3:1 superiority for a siege. And King's Landing has strong walls.

You're better off waiting him out and wearing him down with small, constant attacks. His soldiers get demoralized, some die, they get no sleep, and your catapults pound the city. Meanwhile, the peasants are starving and the soldiers aren't getting enough to eat, and all the ravens Garlan sends can be shot down. If it looks like the soldiers coming up the Roseroad are going to arrive too soon, Drogon can arrive and just the sight of him will probably make a lot of soldiers surrender or desert.

Other thing is a majority of his men are gold cloaks... they are being demoralized by constant attacks by the Order of the Dragon within the city, and the fact that I am offering Garlan, in the open, an option to not have the people die and allow him to leave with his honor intact. If he refuses it signs the death warrants to many men... unless they either lay down their arms and stay out of the fight or if they join my men. If there is a refusal Mekar will have a little speech...

And if Mekar is murdered while under the banner of parlay... well that can get even worse for him.

As of right now I doubt 2-3K men can properly defend the walls of the city (as heavily defended as they are), patrol the streets and keep the peace, try and hunt down the OotD, patrol man and defend the Red Keep, and keep control of the Docks, which are not inside the walls.

Also, the chain has two stations correct? One on either side of the river?

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.

Accepted. Welcome Onto!

[Ontorisa]

So, uh, what's happened so far?

I've read all of the IC and I've gathered that:

-Dany's died from suspicious causes
-Some guy got arrested after seeing part of his retinue getting slaughtered.
-King's Landing is under siege.

-King's Landing is under siege.

-Danny was murdered with poison. Garlan Tyrell blamed Thygar Crassius (Targaryen after revelations) and slaughtered the Targaryen household stating that they had joined with Thygar and were loyal to him.
-Garlan claimed the right to be king of westeros because he killed the Targaryen Household and captured Thygar
-Aegon Crassius reveled he to be the son of the bastard born son of Danny and Jon Snow
-Ixidor Bloodfyre reveled himself to be the son of the bastard born son of Danny and Euron Greyjoy, born from rape, and joins his cousin in his attempt to kill Garlan and put his cousin on the throne
-The Crownlands have joined Aegon
-Half of the Riverlands is to both claimants
- Eyrie is under attack from clans
- Kings Landing is under siege from crownland forces, along with Stokeworth
