Game Of Thrones Roleplay

It is the reign of Kings once again as Westeros erupts into war, the Lannisters, Starks and Baratheons butting heads while other houses stake their claim as well.

 

Essos doesn't stand so well either, as rumors of the Mother of Dragons who comes to take back her lost kingdom arises and the states tremble.

 

Also beyond the wall many rumors brew up as well. Gossip of the dead returning to life and Wildings breaching the wall tremble all of the North and the land around. All in all the world is not in a good time.

 

 

[Feel free to begin posting, this would be starting around the time the everyone decides to rebel against the throne.]

The Triarch of the Nation of Volantis laughs hysterically at the barbarians and their war, and make chiding noises about ten thousand miles from the coast of Westeros. A dock-slave is flayed and immediately killed for laughing with the nobles. Gishkar Targan lifts a goblet of Arbor Wine, examining it, before spilling it all onto the ground and proudly grabbing another of Volantee Red. "Aderī westerosi azantyr like beqes!"

[Treshure 5817]

The Dothraki leader of his respective horde makes a call for all to return to Vaes Dothrak. Recent events in Westeros have stirred the interest of the Dothraki.

 

The Khal speaks before the massive assembly before him.

"We won't wander in this barren wasteland any longer! We shall not toil with cities we have raided many times over. There is new land for us, new land West. I say we go over the salty water. We take back what that white hair girl wanted, must of been good. And we'll have endless things to plunder. Conquer the rock castles!"

He leans back into his chair, a thundering applause filling the air.

Crows scatter throughout Westeros. It comes from the Wall, and it warns the Great Houses of the King Beyond the Wall and the dead rising, the return of the White Walkers.

The Free Folk's camp raised in smoke at the return of the Crow King. His hands bloodied and in his arms the body of a fallen wilding. He through it in the fire and it burned, releasing it's sour sent into the air. His head looks up, facing his people. His beard grows ice and his hair is frozen to his skull. His eyes hold still as he stares. As he opens his mouth he finds no words. 

 

He retreated to his tent where he had to rest, and soon the word passed around. He has slain a White Walker. They have returned. With this jump the people become both scared and anxious. No one wanted to be killed by one, but they wanted the glory of slaying one themselves. But yet it was ordered that all bodies be burned.

 

The Crows strike the Wildings hard and they know they need to retaliate. The king sends men to all the northern tribes, calling for their aid to strike beyond the wall.

In Essos rumor is said a city has fallen to Daenerys Targaryen. The Mother of Dragons is said to be raiding the coast and her dragons proving stronger than any army, fighting alongside her slave army. Of course, many others say she died in the Red Waste. Yet, the Dothraki Warlords who abandoned her begin to shiver as they know she will want her revenge, and Volantis knows she's also headed their way.

The Reach

Mace Tyrell's armies, a total of 80,000 trained men, begin to amass in Tumbleton from the fiefs of the Reach as the various Great Houses declare for independence and the Iron Throne ((1 page before it hits 80k)). The Reach declares its support of Renly Baratheon for the Iron Throne, Ser Loras Tyrell with Renly. Back in Highgarden, Lady Olenna Tyrell takes care of the Reach, keeping it stable and making sure money continues to flow. Lord Paxter Redwyne sails the massive fleet of the Reach, numbering over 200 warships, to begin a blockade of Lannisport and Kayce, which will arrive in 6 months ((1 page)). The Dorne is sent an offer to keep trade open, and perhaps come to a trade agreement.

[Eddywilson2 2117]

Lord Eddard Stark has been killed in Lannisport. The North wanted blood and blood it shall get. The new Lord Stark summons his forces to Winterfell to prepare to strike Southward. Once news arrives of Mace Tyrell's independence, an envoy is sent to him for an alliance to crush the Lannistars and another sent to House Tully and House Arryn to join the King of the North once more.

Doran, the Prince Leader of the Martell Succession sighs, all the nations at war except for his, playing his cards right, he had successfully stayed cleared of the War of Kings, but had his own internal problems. Iron Throne Loyalist were showing their disapproval, even in some places there were talk of open treason. Doran had a sickness, confining him to hiding from commoners and his political enemies, thus, his heir and daughter, Arianne was left in charge partly.

 

But Doran still had the ability to work diplomacy. His courtiers send him a letter from The Reach, talk of trade; accepting gladly for the Reach has a more steady economy then Dorne, a letter is soon sent back, with the Dorne Stamp. 

 

Two armies of Dorne then begin marching to the Boneway and the Prince's Pass, both armies containing about 20,000 soldiers, fortifying the Mountainous stretch of land to the Stormland and the Reach, preparing to unleash when ordered. In Order to remove the fact that the Dornish navy is weak, a fleet of an approximately 20 ships begin construction in Sunspear, their usage being sea patrolling for any sea-born enemies.

 

Having receiving little to no form of contact from others, Dorne remains secluded, clouding itself in intrigue, building itself for war.

[Space 2335]

 

      The Night's Watch was in disarray. One hundred men from Shadow Castle, two hundred men from Castle Black had just set off for a journey that was fated with disaster. Men were being shuffled from castle to castle. A race was on to prepare the Wall if the White Walkers were to indeed return.

 

      With rumours of White Walkers returning, groups of Wandering Crows set out. One to Dorne, one to Highgarden, one to all the capitals of the seven kingdoms, searching for convicts, orphans, vagrants to attempt to replenish the order to it's once great status. With little success.

 

      The Night's Watch cared of the politics of the lands, but did not interfere. They did not war, but war brought them many-a orphans. They did not want civil war, but perhaps the King of the North would sponsor them where King Joffrey Baratheon chose not to.

[DigitalRescue 4]

 

House Lannister

 

All was seeming rather terrible right now for the Lannisters. The only major Kingdom on the entire continent that hadn't declared open war on the Lions were house Dorne, the Sand Snakes. There was no chance of an alliance there. The Mountain and his men, numbering around 5,000 men are sent North to terrorize the Riverlands, supported by Vargo Hoat and his Bloody Mummers. So far, the Riverlords stood no match for the Mad Dog, and every surviving Riverlands Nobleman are either hung in the countryside or sent to the Black Cells in Harrenhall.

 

How stupid it was for the Reach to support a cock-taking traitor to the throne, nevermind sending their fleet to Lannisport, the home of the great Lannister Fleet. The entire navy readies in Lannisport, preparing to move south and take on the Reach in the waters.

 

Lord Balon Greyjoy is offered an alliance, with Hand of the King Tywin Lannister promising the Ironborn recognition of their Kingdom if they take the Neck and stop the Northern forces marching down, if they send their navy south to sack Oldtown, and if they raid the Northern Riverlands. A large sum of money is sent with the messenger.

 

60,000 men are mustered in the easily defensible Westerlands, with 75,000 closer to King's Landing, including thousands of mercenaries, including the Second Sons and other Essosi groups. (1 page)

 

Tywin begins debating whether to fund the Wildlings in secret.

[seannie 7443]

 

With Dorne's main armies out on deployment, many internal conflicts arose, such as crime and low level treason within the commoners, to quell such, Ariane of House Martell is dispatched with a small force of a one thousand spearmen, leaving most of the coastal towns undefended.

 

A letter from the Night's Watch would arrive to Prince Doran, reading it over, he inhales sharply, and sighs out, the pain of sickness on his face, he would send back a letter to the Night's Watch, stating that Dorne will not send men to their aid and would rather keep them within Dornish Borders. 

 

Several ships already constructed are sent patrolling the Dornish sea between the Stormland, showing no signs of threat to the Stormlanders.The Armies of Dorne now pull back from the Mountain passage between Dorne and the Reach and march to regroup with the other Army at the passage Boneway, near the Stormland borders, the two army estimate at 45,000.

 

Now forays into the Stormland becomes frequent, even some small border towns begin to burn as the Martell army struggle to keep it's provisions.

 

-Night's Watch is denied aid from Dorne.

-Ships now patrol the sea between Dorne and the Stormland.

-2 armies combined, amassing at the number of 45,000. Fortifying the Mountain passage between the Stormland and Dorne.

-Raids into the Stormlands are now occurring by the armies of House Martell. 

[Eddywilson2 2117]

The armies of the North essemble together to decide what is to be done with their new kingdom. Winter was coming and food would be needed for the North's cold wastelands. However, the only threat was not from the South so a full scale attack could not happen. 200 men as well as a scouting party are sent to each major settlement to ensure stability and defense should an attack occur. This left the main force with 40,000 men who began their march South. Fish and meat supplied the mostly foot soldiers of the North towards the Twins and Riverrun. A letter is sent ahead to speak terms of peace and renew the North.

-Main army marches south 40,000

-Messangers to Riverrun and the Twins

-200 men sent to each settlement

-Supplies not the best

[The Animal 1]

Balon Greyjoy poured over letters of news and from lords. It seemed the iron throne had quite a challenge ahead of it, and the Lannister's would have a run for their gold. This was good, with so many of the realms acting ambitious the Iron born could once again reave. No cry of independence or rebellion is made, just Balon calling the banners. The Iron fleet would assemble relatively quick, but the various reaver longships would take longer.

 

Lannister offers are denied, and the messengers are drowned in honor to their god. The gold is used to pay the mustering fleet.

[Treshure 5817]

The Khal of the Khaleesi's previous Khalasar has mustered his force of roughly 35,000 fighters. He is now mustering and rallying the other Khalasars for their troops, reaching a sizable amount of 70,000. ((Placeholder, no idea how much they could really muster.)) The Khal starts to take from villages, drawing on the resources of the Dothraki people to build a legion of ships.

 

Diplomats are sent from Essos to Westeros asking each individual Lord about if they would want the support of the Dothraki.

[Hiebe 2493]

 

House Tully of the Riverlands

 

Ser Brynden Tully, acting Lord Marshal of this brothers realm, has decided to finally marry. Envoys are sent to HighGarden and Dorne for possible suitors for this legendary knight and warrior. For now though he rallies the river lords forces at RiverRun. A force of 35,000 men rally underneath its walls as another force of 10,000 rallies to the west. A letter is sent to Lord Frey to muster 1,000 of his men and send them to RiverRun to meet with the rest of the forces and keep 3,000 to guard the Crossing.

 

Ser Edmure Tully, heir to the Trident, acts as Lord Regent due to his failed fathers health. He sends a envoy to his sister, now acting Regent in the Vale, to honor their blood ties and defend the Trident if it were attacked. He receives a letter from his nephew Robb and smiles at the proposal. His brother-in-law Eddard failed in Kings Landing but now it would his chance for revenge and possibly expansion of his soon to own lands. He gives a replay, "The Lannisters will honor the blood debt, I shall march with you Robb."
