Co-OPs: Krugmar
Premise
A Song of Ice and Fire: The Last King takes place a few days, perhaps a few weeks, after the conclusion of the novel A Dance With Dragons. Set in George R.R. Martin's highly popular A Song of Ice and Fire novels and HBO's A Game of Thrones, 'The Last King' throws us into this fantasy world, predominantly on the canon based on Martin's novels over that of the show, including even the three books canonically written by the Maesters and The World of Ice and Fire. As in the previous RP, for those of you who will join and remember, there are some slight alterations to the story. I'll lay them out here below in addition to laying down the ground work as to where we currently are.
Where We Are:
- The siege of the Dreadfort is underway by Stannis with his army and the Northern Houses
- Dany is stuck in the Dothraki Sea
- Barristan Selmy has won the Siege for Meereen, but now must face Victarion Grejoy and his Ironborn
- The Trial By Combat that will decide Cersei Lannister's fate is about to begin. Margaery's trial is set to take place two days after this, and as of now, is a regular form of trial
- Jaime is lost in the Riverlands, last seen with Brienne of Tarth
- Euron is set to besiege Oldtown, with Tyrell forces on the way to alleviate the city
- Quentyn has become a marshmallow.
- Davos is looking for Rickon
- Jon has been resurrected
- Baelish is consolidating power in the Vale
- Aegon and the GC travel to Westeros slightly later than in the books. Varys, in his confusion as to the fact they haven't landed when he assumed (given his plots with Illyrio) makes the journey to Pentos to see what's up. At the same time, Aegon and the GC land at Griffin's Roost in the Stormlands. Most of Westeros - those who know of the GC landing - believe they are Stannis' mercs
- Arianne has just set off to validate the claims of Jon Connington
- Portions of the Volantine fleet have been taken over by their slave crews, throwing dissent into the ranks of them as they sail towards Meereen.
- Kevan Lannister and Grand Maester Pycelle are both still alive.
Theories that, for the sake of this RP, will be seen as canon. (Since we can't shut up about them.)
- R + L = J.
- The Great Northern Conspiracy (Yes, but not entirely. The North will rally behind Stannis and his Lord of Winterfell, but probably wont march too far south with him.)
- This will be continued to expanded.
Rules
- Forum Site rules apply, obviously.
- When referring to canon, please refer to the above when dealing with situations in the RP and then followed by the glorious holy texts of our lord and saviour; the A Song of Ice and Fire books.
- Posts must be of a good quality. No one, two, three liners. There must be a decently sized paragraph per post!
- My word is law
- Activity is certainly a well sought after commodity; if you are going to be absent please inform me via a TG. If you are absent for a period of more than three days I will remove you from the RP.
- When you are RPing a House/Faction you RP all within it, including important characters. If another player wishes to play someone from that House and you see no issue with it, please let me know on your arrangement. When RPing as a House or other Faction you must also apply as the main character in that house; your patriarch or matriarch.
- If you are RPing, say one of the major houses of Westeros, and your vassals are all NPCs you can control them ICly until they are filled.
- Reservations last for 24 hours.
- Qarth is our Easternmost border for RPing purposes, the other places still exist but are non-playable.
