A Game of Thrones - The Defenders of the Vale

[Munin]

A great start...I look forward to more!

Devyn, could you please post some info on Creighton in the Rogue's gallery or PM it to me? I'm planning to talk to him in my next post, and I'd like to know what he's like before that.

Spoiler:

Wargamer, are you backstabbing in post one?

 

[Ibram Gaunt]

Wargamer, you can share that or not. It's your character. Although I doubt Maester Brandon would get away with keeping it from Lord Horton.

 

[Ibram Gaunt]

Guys since this is my first PbP game to GM, please post comments or suggestions on any changes or improvements you feel would make the game better as we go.

 

[Bleak Knight]

Double-check for typos, and everything should be great.

This is swell so far.

Devyn, Tyrmatfrage: We should make a background for our characters together. Ibram has given the green light for doing it in this thread. The story should probably include some parts of their childhood, but mostly focus on their lives the last six years, without any parents.

Highlights (that I could think of): Jon's birth (pre-war), Mother's death, Father's departure, life without parents, Creighton and Jasper's relationship, the previous maester's death, and any conflics developed between the characters and others (Jasper for example, has an enemy in Emon Hunter, Lord Eon Hunter's first son).

Which characters actually know who Rhin is?

Honestly, no backstabbing!!!

I just thought that the content of the email I was sent would best be presented by an adult and official character, as opposed to a 13 year old girl...

...and I couldn't resist posting.

Melyssa suffered the most from Mother's death and withdrew into her own private world afterwards. She's been getting better, though, and has started developing good relationships with the household staff. She's still close with members of her mother's family. Father's departure didn't seem to affect her all that much... she sends a letter to him every fortnight, however.

As for her relationships with Jasper and Creighton... hmm, I don't know. I don't think she's all that close to them, since they don't fit into each others "worlds" Melyssa does have some grudging respect for them since they're her "big brothers" but I can't think of anything else beyond that.

Any ideas?

Probably all of us, seeing as you are Lord Horton's ward, and will have had to suffer all-around introductions.

I don't trust you! Liar! Backstabber!

Any ideas?

Well, I think they are both kind people. Jasper has had to lord Redfort for six years now, so he might have grown a little distant, but he still loves his siblings.

EDIT: Chronological question: With Myrcella's investigation taking some time, is it safe to assume that we will reach the maester long before she does? Just trying to avoid time-warp confusion from arising here.
