That would be nice, without the Arryn's the opposition to the Tyrell-Lannister regime in Westeros is rather leaderless.

Okay guys, so I was like 3/5 through a post last night before I fell asleep, but it's a half day today so I should be able to finish within 6-12 hours.

I think I would enjoy RPing as the Arryns, although you have to bear in mind that I'm probably more apt to play the long game ICly. I'll keep everything that has already been established within the RP for the Arryns and take it from there.

Well its not like my character is a short game kinda guy. The only reason I am going to invade Westeros at all is to give the Dothraki something to do other then raiding my empire, if not for that an invasion of westerns would probably be a decade in the making at least.

This is acceptable, just read up on everything Jeor and Sansa have done.

Heretics aren't allowed popcorn either. Only the orthodox eastern rite R'hllor worshippers are allowed to warm maize until it pops, so say the teachings of the Lord of Light. It is known.

R'hllor loves all his children; it is an inherent aspect of his nature. To deny that equal love and rights on something as petty as the method of lighting your nightfire or the trim on your priest's robes saddens him, especially when the worlds is already so full of demon-worshippers. A great bonfire can not be easily extinguished, but have the logs fall on each other and scatter and none shall burn for long.

So it is written. Also, doesn't Aemon worship the Ghis gods?

Aemon worships whatever he deems politically opportune. As a result he is supportive of the Ghiscari faith of the majority of his subjects but he also brought R'hllor to Ghiscar, blending traditional R'hllor belief with the prophecy about the prince that was promised to assert that Azor Ahai will be born from his bloodline, thus claiming divine right to rule not only Ghiscar but all followers of R'hllor.

Alright, so he's a faithless man who'll run to any god who's guise offers him some temporary power? Or did he take the Roman approach of jamming all the faiths together to make a semi-coherent whole, where nobody really identifies with his faith but nobody really hates it

He is a pragmatic ruler who rules over a multi religious society of a number of ill organized religions and has found it advantageous to take control over these religions and shape them as he sees fit, following in the footsteps of Alexander, Constantine and Akbar.

Alright. Understood.

But, be that as it may, he does strictly worship those who are not R'hllor and thus thralls of the other while recognizing R'hllor's existance, which makes him a weird heathan-heretic (Kind of like Satanists relative to Christianity). So, you're also not Orthdox and thus no popcorn

Post will be coming tomorrow, was planned for today but homework meant I couldn't finish it. To Quendi, having read over the RP, Sansa is in a meeting with Ser Daemon Waters if I recall correctly, so I'm typing up a reply to that. To Arana, last saw of Jeor was that he went out for a piss-up round about the same time, so I'd guess that by now he'd be at the 'main action' in King's Landing, whatever that may be?

If you intend to have him compete in the melee, that's currently about to begin.
