Re: Discussion & Creation

So players may archive info in their Re: Access to Game of Thrones: To Rule the Kingdoms by RPoL rules I must keep this if you are a player.

Storyline/background stories bwt PCs are kept in what is and will be the Private house thread. Every house will have one. The Planning house thread is for chatter that is bwt players of that house.

When needed NC sheets and info will also be kept in their private house thread.

Basically the Private house thread is for official house info. and some archives. The planning is your chit chat for that house.

In IC you post OOC in orange and/or use the private or secret if needed.

Players interested in IC conversations that are a break away form their current IC may use the 'Lord and Ladies' thread. You must request to enter this thread and only the players involved in that conversation will every get to read them. This is were you plot, and IC your secrets. all other ICs will open for everyone to read when the IC is done. Keep this in mind - recommend using [private] when you need to.

All this and a lot more is listed in the RTJ thread. Please take the time to read them. I know its a lot but it will help with playing in this game.

metropoller

He has a few ideas but is not yet sure of which house to go with. I recommend that if you have spots to fill in your house to touch base with him.

Re: Discussion & Creation

How much is a Braavosi Blade if your background will allow one to buy one in Braavos? The book price is for that cost in Westeros which would seem to be higher.

Re: Discussion & Creation

I would argue it costs as much as a Westerosi longsword but then again when I was building my pirate I payed book price for mine just to avoid the discussion so....

Re: Discussion & Creation

I'm cheap, I can't find prices on Castle-Made Weapons my guess they aren't cheap. But anyway money IS an issue for my character she's not bad in a fight for a young adult, if pressured to.

Re: Discussion & Creation

You could pick a fighting style that focuses on cheaper weapons...like small blades maybe.

Re: Discussion & Creation

I can afford one just doesn't see the need to pay full price when she was in the city the blades are common during her adolescence and she studied fencing.

Re: Discussion & Creation

There is no price listed for Castle-Grade weapons because you can't get them on your own like that.  You have to have access to a Castle Grade Smith which is an extra created through House Creation traits in the House Creation process.

Re: Discussion & Creation

Awwww, or acquire one in game play by other means. ;)

Anyway a common weapon is fine she's a performer not a warrior, but can defend herself some.

Re: Discussion & Creation

In reply to Sherlyne Brosha (msg # 643):

I would focus on the stats and background story, with some well worded Character Description. Then we can discuss what you have.

I don't really get to into items unless it's valyrian steel, armor or a horse. Because those items are really expensive. If you came from a house with a Artisan, Master Smith and you have has castle forged steel it's most likely you would have a castle forged item, at least a weapon.

The rules for valyrian steel are house rules and you can look it up under the thread Magic & Mysticism post #8

Re: Discussion & Creation

LOL I was going through some old post and found House Balgair Events, but nothing else on them, I know this was going to be a player house, what happen to this house?

Well I just found that House Kolwyn Events, never finished their event list, so player from this house please look over the other posts and provide similar information to be added. TY

Also before we start the new IC I ask that all player houses do the same so we can keep this properly updated.

Re: Discussion & Creation

So I have some info for the new players;

Rank 1 — Deficient

 This rank in an ability means you’re deficient. Routine tasks are a challenge. Generally, an ability at this rank is the result of some other physical or mental deficiency.

I have include the link to more info on how we RP these ranks. POST #6

Re: Discussion & Creation

Or in my case she never left urban areas so why would she have Survival, until she's exposed to such skills with people who are good in them, then can use experience to raise it. And maybe get a specialty. But for now cities and towns good, and the wild is bad. Its a role-playing point.

Now to finish picking out equipment.

Re: Discussion & Creation

For our new players, I think its would be best for the game if we stick to the current active players houses with your PC creations. So as you use your creative juices please focus on being added to the houses of the following;

Re: Discussion & Creation

FYI

you can come from another house, you just are sworn or in service for some reason to one of the player houses. its just to save some time on house creation and that development for us is very detail which takes a great deal of time. I'm sure we can make it work with any ideas you may have.

TY

Re: Discussion & Creation

For the new player if you have picked a name, house and a position in the family please let me know so I can add the info to your Bio lines and player tags.

Setting Up on this Site

Character Bios, all players should have a simple bio, I will edit or add these details on for the player. The Bio-Lines are for information about the character such as, title, position in a house, or even the type of PC (warrior, sellsword, solider, etc)

Character Descriptions, this info does not need to be region specific but an idea of the personality, morals and why they are the way they are is needed if you want good quality Roleplaying and the quests and adventures to be more than just a treasure hunt.

Character Sheets, in this portion of the site you should have your character sheets and also if you are using the link to the off-site host place the link at the top of the sheet.

 Under "Character Details" for Caladin is a sample character sheet. Players are asked that all PCs and NPCs sheets be kept in full and undated via this site. A player may host his character on any other off-site and link it to this game if they so wish.

Re: Discussion & Creation

New players,

I hoping that we can get the basics ready so you can start posting by Monday.

The finial PC sheet is really last on our needed list unless you get into combat or want to contest a roll of a PC/NC.

Keep in mind its a heavy role play game not a heavy roll playing game. So background and history details are more important then stats and numbers. Of course we will need them its just not necessary for when we start.

Re: Discussion & Creation

One last thing before I end my posting for today. Can I please get solid age numbers. I know the charts don't ask but I do need them so I can fill in our house charts. Unless your PC doesn't even know, .... then we can post an age like 17-19 meaning that they are bwt that age and no one really knows exactly. Tthis is not normal for those with status of 3 or better, those with families etc as these things are closely kept by the maesters and stewards of a house, so heirs and the like are clear.
