it's late so i'm not gonna be very good at plotting right now, & i'll probably edit some info on my characters into my post in the morning. for now, have this;

Quote

Joanna will at first be quite nice to others, before she's given reason to become bitter. Considering that they're of a similar age, both have young children & are also both bastard children, disliked by many because of their family (there's more similarities between them than i initially thought wow), maybe her and Alyson start up a friendship?? pip!

Okie dokie now that I'm less tired here's some stuff on my characters!

Daeron

Joanna

Noodles D. I think he could suggest it to her/she'd know about it, and as much as she could understand his motives she wouldn't want to be involved too heavily. She'll change her tune once he dies, but she would definitely be more cynical (is that the right word?) about it? To the point where she's borderline neutral evil - she wants vengeance and power, and her children are essentially the only things that she really cares about now.

So I think that there will be two distinct representations of Joanna within the rp; the one at the start who has a family to keep her happy and to sort of 'distract' her from the fact that vengeance against the Starks and Targaryens is something she wants deep down. Her fear for the well-being of her family is one of the only things stopping her from acting out. After Ardyn's death, and her own pardoning ~~which me & jax had a plot for, I'll explain that next~~ she doesn't really have that holding her back. Given that their father was a traitor, her children are no longer safe, and that gives her enough reason to act out as well? I'm unsure right now what that treason would entail, but I'll think of something ~~maybe she goes after the queen? Better to try to kill the queen and potential heirs than the king because that would be way too obvious???~~.

As for her pardoning, me and jacksonwhittmore were thinking that Teritheon could get drunk at the wedding feast & be about to act out in jealousy of his brother or something (someone could maybe bring up similarities between Daeron and his father? That's a sore point for Theo I think??) and Jo steps in to stop him from being stupid. We were initially planning a drunken one night stand thing for them, but idk how in-character that would be for Jo at that time, even if she was slightly drunk?? In any case, because she saved him from making a fool of himself, Theo would step in at the trial and vouch for her innocence, saying that she should be spared. If she did cheat on Ardyn, then that would probably just add onto her guilt after he is killed? And she's going to be very angry with Theo for saving her, because she'll assume it's out of some kind of pity?

Poop I need to post vale but I’m lazy rip

pip! · Mar 20th 2019

alyson

Alyson Shireen Seaworth

Twenty Two

Lady Seaworth

Widow

Gentle, Attentive, Strong, Fiery, Intelligent

Mother to one child, Robert Seaworth

Sews her own dresses and Robert's outfits

Can sing like a songbird

Has a secret passion for horses and jousting

Has a scar on her upper lip from getting hip with a sharp rock as a child

Is fairly calm and very proper, until her child is threatened. and then she isn't afraid to slit someone's throat

Close family friend to the Targaryens because of her father so she knows the princes and princess fairly well

Only living child of Ser Davos and is technically a bastard

Will always put her family above everyone else

Secretly is very skilled at sword fighting but hides it since "it isn't lady like"

is very open to any kind of plots

marcola i can see her and joanna being very close and she will defend the fuck out of of her when she is brought to trial. no one listens to her though since she doesn't have much credit being the bastard daughter of the onion king. but she will stay by joanna through it all because she knows all too well how terrible it is to be an outsider.

and she's also for any friends with the girls! she gets along much better with girls and would feel sketchy if a guy randomly wanted to be her friend because of her trust issues. also, i can see Noodles D. Nym and Alyson's son Robert really getting along and playing around together in the castle and seeing Nym as one of his only friends at court.

as for romantic plots, lucas is kind of the only person she has her eyes on jacksonwhittmore

and i feel like when she finds out about him being stuck between her and valeria, she'll get pretty pissed. because she thinks she's fairly pretty and would make a good wife to him and is angry since she had opened herself to him just for him to be conflicted between her and a princess. so that will definetly cause a rift between the two of them and she is just like "who did you love first? because if you truly loved the first, you never would have fallen for the second" and she gets all hurt and kind of shuts him off for a while? like she will love him and want to be with him but she doesn't want to be second best. She knows any man out there would chose Valeria so she is just very hurt.

i'm also down for her to be super close to xavier Arthur Morgan

not in a romantic way of course. but he becomes like an older brother to her and he feels very protective of her? like the two could become very close and almost inseperable and he tells her about his sexuality and she completely accepts him and tells him to follow his heart. and eh can help her through the whole lucas ordeal and almost fights lucas because he hurt alyson? or not but he could be very angry at lucas.and they had a purely platonic family type of bone and everyone around them thinks they are courting each other, which makes lucas jealous and realize some things?

i'm also super down for a kidnapping plot with her or a plot where she gets hurt in some kind of way.

Ech0 · Mar 21st 2019

Tirius Stark - Hand of the King

Tirius Anderon Stark

Twenty six

Lord of Winterfell

Widow

Intelligent, Stubborn, Charismatic, Loyal, Manipulative

Father to Kathryn Stark, 4

Most see him as untrustworthy due to his morally grey views on the world

Is fiercely protective of his baby sister Ana

Mr. Know-it-all

Will kill to get what he wants

Is traumatized by his childhood and has PTSD because of it

Will never ask for help and won't accept it most of the time either

Is honestly an old man in a young mans body

*He needs a love interest--he's pan so he can find something to love in everyone:)

*He's a loner so I'd like to limit friendships until later in the rp

*Anyone need a dude for any illegal action, include him in the plot

*Totally down for him to get seriously injured

*Also the kind of guy who won't shirk responsibility so he's your man to dump responsibilities onto because he basically say yes and somehow get it done or die trying.

*Everything I mentioned earlier:

- Nymerianna Baratheon and him possibly have a romance but people are against it because he's a bit older than her or something

- Lucas Tyrell and him have a romance(he's pan)

- Him and Ana are joined at the hip and possibly something happens with Ana that he then goes off and does something not good for her end

- People think he's the traitor because he's the type of person most people expect(he's an ends justify the means type of guy and slightly morally grey on the outside but is really a sweetheart)

- I'd totally be open to him getting injured in some way or falls ill or something

- I'm totally down for bromances

- Also he may or may not be open to any funny business(again he's not above some ill-advised law breaking so long as the goal he's trying to achieve is good)

- Also I'd be open to having a plot with someone where they kinda bond with his kid who's basically an angel child and get really attached to her and because of that start to be friends with Ty

- Also I'd love for people to always initially judge him as a snake and people who don't know him don't like him and the people who do know him always get mad when every just kind of passive-aggressively insult him.

- He's just kinda off-putting to the goody-goodies so any rivalries based on assumptions and then realizing their assumption was wrong so apologizing and trying to make up for it by Ty holds grudges so then he's the one being unfair to the other person until eventual forgiveness is given.

- His kid possibly gets sick and everyone dies about it because she's an angel and he's kinda unemotional and distant and everyone is like don't you care about this angel child until maybe someone finds him when he thinks he's alone and he's sobbing and angry because he doesn't want to lose his child.

- Also open to someone flirting with him constantly and him getting super annoyed at them.

Valeria Targaryen || Princess

Vale is pretty closed off to people she doesn't really know which causes her to come off as intimidating and cold. She doesn't allow others opionions of her hurt her feelings, nor does she care. When it comes to family and close friends anything said to her with malicious intent will have her melting it to a little puddle. She's very lethal with her words, viper like. Exceptionally quick witted. Very agile. She likes to think she could kill a man with her looks. She knows she's sexy as hell, much like her brother. An incredibly determined woman, has a soft spot for unfortunate people. Loved by the kingdom. She tries to help out and learn as much as she can so she's not your typical "princess,." One of the things she'd like to learn would be blacksmithing. She enjoys fashion and pretty things a great deal. Pretty aggressive at times and standoffish, she can become violent when provoked. Overall she's fairly kind, ask the peasants, can be pretty mean when provoked. Doesn't back down, loyal as all hell.

For plots the only ones I really have are with jacksonwhittmore I like the idea of Vale and Ana being really close, it'd be good for her to have a female friend since she tends to stray from them. I also think a love triangle between Lucas, Vale and Alyson pip! could be pretty fun. Vale doesn't allow people to get close to her often so I could see her and Lucas sleeping together often with no strings attached.

marcola Tbh I'd like for Vale to reach out to Joanna, to try and mend the rift between the families. After her trial I could also see Vale inviting her kids to the castle to stay "safe" if you will. I also think it'd be quite nice for both the women to have like breakfast with each other every morning or something. I'd also love for Vargen to be her best-friend? Replacing the one she had lost as a child. I think she'd be drawn to him because of his attractiveness but once she finds out he's gay she just shrugs it off and declares them friends. I could definitely see them practicing with sword fighting a lot.

Ech0 For Ty, maybe his chronic pain has gotten so bad that he decides to visit the infamous Wood Witch, not realizing that it was Vale. She can give him some herbs and salves that could help with pain.

I'd like more plots tbh, I know Vale will be kidnapped at some point, not really sure who will kidnap her and how they'll manage to do it. Maybe they get close to her somehow:?

loves food

will kill anyone who touches her food

Aspiring war master

small children gravitate to her

Has a pet crow called Ezio, he likes to attack strangers

Loves apple tarts

Will literally die for small animals of any sort

can be a total brat towards her brothers and often whines to them

The tell tale sign that she's not your typical princess is her bloodied and bruised knuckles, Daeron tends to grumble about this often

Enjoys sword fighting or any activity that requires a lot of physical exertion

Avid equestrian, her horses are Brego click and Salem click

Very protective of her brother Theo

Has a very strange affinity with animals, wild ones even. Which is why they call her a witch

Enjoys annoying Daeron

Like to pick fights with the kings guard and soldiers, just to show off

she has a thing for battle corsets and pretty armor so you can almost always find her decked out in something

She also only really wears silk dresses or lace dresses. Though for special occasions she will wear something different. She also wears pants a lot.

She likes to challenge society

Can sing, though she doesn't often. But her humming is almost ethereal.

jacksonwhittmore · Mar 21st 2019

Ahhhh pip! If Alyson gets kidnapped or hurt I'm all for Lucas saving her life, I think maybe he will wind up meeting Vale first and maybe get seduced by the power and the luxury of the royal life and hooks up with Vale but maybe later starts to get feelings for Alyson? I'm honestly all for him meeting her son before he meets her and not realizing it's Alyson's SON and he's like low-key being a mentor to the kid and plays around with him teaching him swordsmanship and riding and then is like oh damn ur Alyson's son????

Also - Arthur Morgan are you planning on making a Lord commander of the Kings guard?

Viserion · Mar 21st 2019

ok I've edited my post for like the tenth time to add a few more things, I'll probably do this a lot more in the next few days just to add more plot ideas with peoples characters as I look at them

Noodles D. · Mar 21st 2019

marcola - alright, I'll have him keep it from her as a general rule, and okiedoke about Vargan- she wouldn't make a very good nurse, but she can visit him and poke fun at his injuries. Also, as opposed to those who put him down for his dating choices, She hardly cares about who she herself dates, so she won't really won't have anything to say about who he's friends/lovers with so no trouble there.

jacksonwhittmore - Yeah, Nymerianna would love hanging out with Ana and Tirius as her close family/friends.

pip! - Sure, Ny can also hang out with Robert from time to time once they meet too.

Arthur Morgan · Mar 21st 2019

pip! tbh i can totally seeing them being pretty close, since he has two older sisters & is so used to having them protect HIM xavier would most definitely be keen to keeping an eye on her and making sure that she is okay and what not.

pfft you making me love them together already, cause yeah i like the idea of people thinking that they are courting; seeing as though they are basically attached at the hip and care deeply for each other, but in all reality they are just so close that it’s disgustingly sweet. i also see her son & xaviers two younger daughters playing together (well more so they would keep an eye on robert & baby sit for her when she needs help??)

but tbh when he actually did open up about his sexuality it would be a kinda big step for him, cause he spent a large chunk of his life having parents treating him like total shit for it (and other things, not just because he was gay. they just hated him, especially his mother lmao) so you know that xavier is totally comfortable with alyson to tell her that.

&& yes, xavier would totally give lucas shit for messing with alyson’s heart like pfft no ma’am “don’t string her along like she’s some fish on your line; if you love her then be with her. if not, leave her the fuck alone & stop breaking her heart” or something along those lines

Viserion

kinda wanna see how these two would get along? maybe they aren’t so keen to each other for some reason and only tolerate each other for political affairs?

or they can be friends? since xavier also loves animals, i feel like they could be riding buddies? if that makes sense?

or maybe since they both are pretty knowledgeable about herbal remedies and medications they could bond over that??

jacksonwhittmore

if you need me to make it, i’ll get a form

up tomorrow. idk what i could make him to be, i already have a face claim picked out and everything else decided but idk who i should make him related to if that make sense??

anyway, we should plot tho i love all of your characters lmao

marcola

i know we got some plots down for xavier and vargan, but i feel like plots should commence between daeron & joanna?

tbh xavier may or may not exactly like joanna very much, if he’s gonna be honest.

Viserion · Mar 21st 2019

Definitely could see them bonding over herbs and riding. Maybe they often ride out to replenish their stores?

marcola · Mar 21st 2019

jacksonwhittmore For joanna being a nasty pasty- yes. I figure that would happen later on in the rp, after she's tried being sneaky & that hasn't really worked, so she goes ahead and straight up tries to kill her? Ana & Dae will get along eventually and be happy I swear. He'll probably see the copy of the Dance of Dragons that she brought & they can bond over that?? Or something??

pip! and Viserion Jo is totally open for friends! I imagine that the closeness to Vale would make it hurt more when she pulls a treasonous stunt regardless. & as for the children, Noodles D. is rping the child who is going to inherit Ashemark and so he'll be out of the picture (I think? That's up to noodles tho). I'll be rping the other child (who is staying in King's Landing with Jo) so if you wanted to have Vale interact with him then I'd be cool with that. I'm also good with having Vale and Vargan being friends, when he sees that she's good with a sword he'll probably hand her an axe and try to teach her how to fight like an ironborn if she'd want to learn?

Arthur Morgan Jo is going to be getting up to some shady stuff after her husband dies, so we could definitely set them up as enemies if you wanted? before that point, she'll be trying her best to keep herself in people's good graces, but if anything she might come across as fake in that regard??

Ech0 · Mar 21st 2019

pip! would you be interested in a Vargan/Tirius relationship, I feel like they might get along and with Ty being an emotional wreck on the inside and Vargan understanding what it’s like to be abused, they both might click together. Thoughts?

marcola · Mar 21st 2019

I think you might have tagged the wrong person/written the wrong name there, Ech0 ??
