Hailing from far north, close to the border of Great Wall, Marcus has been fighting most of his live among the troops of the lesser lords until he ended up south to Reach due to unknown reasons.
Gruff and hard, like people raised in north, Marcus is nonsense, grunt person striving for perfection and looking to get in higher position on his life. Adapted to living wilderness, able to take care of himself as proven his years in the service against bandits and wildlings as well tracking and living in the woods for days and weeks, he is so-so person also among the halls of higher people.
Fought or were involded in battle, fits/meshes with my Drawback quite nicely
Power, again fits perfectly to the story. lucky in 2 rows so far
Love. This seems a bit strange, but lets see. Got it also with my previous character
Humble..... No idea... does not really fit with the theme but maybe I will come up with something
Cruel, I will take it
EDIT: Thanks for noticing that Athera. No idea how I missed that and I checked it like thrice and was convinced I did read it as a Cowardly... ahah
Also seems like this time I am more combat orientated character but I also have a chance to shoot with bows as well survive in the wilds if needed. Also considering the background he might not actually be in *high* position (quite relative here) depending what we decide
6 is cruel not Cowardly. You're cruel. Which I'm sure you're okay with! XD
Edit: Not a problem! And Humble will be interesting to see you pull off with that mix.
Being more marshal might be a good thing. After all Dannith may like that out of your character while Brydan and Athera may need a stronger hand around. I know Athera will for sure... Not much fighting capability here...

I thunk we have three characters that have the nemesis flaw. I am gonna look at possibly dropping mine. Be a bit rough possibly on the GM/our House if we all f%@&ed up and got ourselves hated.
Also, everyone cast your votes on the house name.
I think I am gonna trade out Nemesis for Honor-Bound. It'll be a little rough for me but I can rely on good looks and charming self to get by in life.
Well a lot of Houses of the Reach do tend to have more... nature themed names. Such as the Redwyne, Gardener, and Oldflowers. Thus Blackbury would fit in, then again there are families Bulwer, Hightower, Webber, and Osgrey. So really either name works. I am a little biases again Blackbury because it makes me giggle... >_< I'm sorry.
Edit:
I know the GM believe the Cohort would be a good idea but I also came across the Compelling quirk... Charming, attractive, and compelling? Who could say no? Or I could do the smart thing and give her a knight to protect her....
I think the question is more like... Would the shadowcat allow the barding?
Also! You remember that idea we has about saving her older brother on the hunt?
Well, what if it wasn't her brother, but her?
Athera has a fear of snakes, this comes from the fact that once when she was riding she was thrown from her horse into a crevice of vipers. Her older brother, who was with her because this was his last ride through the Dorne mountains in the hold of Starfall before he left for Sandspear, was thrown and broke his arm so he couldn't get to her. If they had gone too far into the mountains, they could have ended up on Reach lands, your family's lands. It would have given you the chance to save both.

Hmm...hmmm...could work. It might give a chance for them to be a bit older as well. Hunting prowess would make more sense at a later age...maybe 14 for him, it'd make him old enough to have studied under the former Master of the hunt.
There isn't too much of a strict age for when children become wards so your character being 10 would be fine. or I suppose I could age up a bit to 26 or 27. It'd add the brotherly rivalry a bit more if they are closer in age. (That'd make the first build a bit more likely though...which is fine, I'm good with both builds honestly).
Hmm....thoughts?
Actually Brydan could have started studying under the Master of the Hunt as early as 9. That is the time in which boys became pages. So if he is five years older then Athera, who had this happen when she was about six, he would have been 11 or 12. That is enough time to learn a thing or two if he was a fast learner.
Edit: You could even up him from 5 to 6 years older then Athera, meaning he'd be 12 or 11 at the time with three to four years under the Master of the Hunt. It would only up your age by one. Two at the most.
Also, I've settled on the Compelling quality... Mostly because I don't want to build another character! XD

Scratches chin... Hmmm, I'm gonna go with he is 27. Shouldn't be too terribly much of a difference that he wouldn't eventually hang out with Athera...and she might white knight him a bit.
Go back with the original idea of him being a Swordsman and Jouster. His brother was a better melee combatant while he was the better Jouster.
Now that his brother is Lord however, he is settling back a bit from the competitive side of things. Something that is for the better of the family, if his brother dies in the front lines, then they would still have a strong leader...he will be taking up training in the hunt under the Master of the Hunt.
Now that I have fully decided this, I'm gonna start working on the backstory aspect. He would've been 14 or 15 at the time of saving her and her brother from the vipers.
I think that perhaps the Master of the Hunt may have taken him on a hunt around his...24 name day? He slayed a large mother Shadowcat and the Master figured out where her den was. As part of his training to become a master hunter, the Master picked up one of the kittens and forced Brydan to raise it and become better in tune and know the animals that he will be hunting.
It'll also give me reasons as to why I may have him from time to time hunt down and try to train small critters.
Thoughts on pieces of the background?
I'm sorry but all I see is Athera stealing the Shadowcat all the time... Because she'd have been 16 and it's a cute kitten.
So Brydan would have gotten his Shadowcat back with a bell on it and bows in its hair! XD

Alright, realized I'm at the point I might need some GM information and need some information from my 'brother'.
How big is our family? Do you want us to decide or do you want to limit it a bit so you have less NPCs you might have to possible make/run?
Final Stats for our House
Defense: 20
Influence: 49
Lands: 41
Law: 21
Population: 32
Power: 40
Wealth: 35
SO.....omg we got some serious Influence to start with...like damn.
Same with power. So we might very well be targeted at some point.
All the same we should start this argument as well ^_^. What to spend, what to have and all that.
|
|
So I hate to say this but we probably need to spend all of our Defense and at least have a Hall...
I'm not sure if we need to spend 20 Influence for me to be Heir...or spend 20 for Darkest to be Heir, 10 for me to be second in line...and start with him as lord?
So lands...this is where we bounced back and forth a fair bit last time...good news I think we have a bit more then last. So the Plains is obviously a given for the most part. If we wanna be close to the edge of Dorne (makes sense if we got a Ward from there) we might have some hills.
So I would say....Plains: Hamlet 15, Plains: Hamlet 15, Hills: Ruin? 10....?
Law...can't do anything with
Population can't do anything with but +3 to House Fortunes...NICE.
Power, I would say 1 Banner House(20) is nice...would help us feel nice and safe possibly. Trained Infantry (3+4), Green Scout (1+2), Green Archers(1+3), Green Infantry(1+4)? Would only leave us with 1 Power left over, but at least be a semi decent sized army?
Wealth, gotta have a Maester(10), a mine(10) in the hills would be nice, Personally would love a Master of the Hunt(10). That'd leave 5 left...but I'd rather not spend it all so we don't lose something possibly.
Thoughts?
Pretty well thought out Jing!
Wealth down to 5 I think makes sense as all of those positions are valuable positions to have filled.
I may modify my background a bit, will try to make him tonight as I am still fairly awake considering the late hour!
EDIT: I think I am going to take Ward which would make Weyland the Theon of the Household.
I am also considering the Anointed Knight path, a direction that Weyland was headed in the last game. This requires Sponsor, who is someone I would assume is outside of the House. Thoughts on this DM?

Brydan was born the second son of Lord ______. While he was technically not the heir of the House, he spent most of his life trying to prove to his father that he could be the better choice. His brother, Dannith however proved himself time and time again that he was the better swordsman and even was a better study then Brydan but not by much. Dannith was a stronger man, but Brydan was the faster one, so their studies in the sword began to drag them further and further away from each other. Brydan however had a way with words that his brother couldn't manage and made for a better Jouster though not by much.
It was on one of his many trips out on his favorite steed, Tucker, that he had his first encounter with Dornish people. A simple ride turned into a rather complicated situation for his family. He had driven his horse up into the hills that day and riding along the outskirts of their territory, something that he knew better then to do but what else would a headstrong young lad do when he thought he was old enough to do what he pleased. He was surprised when he saw a Horse come galloping over a hill, saddled and set to be ridden but minus a rider.
He spurred his horse onward and readied his blade. He was surprised to find a boy, not much younger then himself by the look of it on the ground and grabbing at his arm. The boy at least was coherent enough to point towards a log nearby. A young girl had fallen from her horse onto an old log, breaking the decayed wood to release the nest of snakes to the open air. He pulled himself free of his saddle and used the fine tip of his blade to careful slash around the girl at the thrashing snakes. Once enough of the snakes had been culled from snapping at the girl and himself he reached into the nest and pulled her out of it. He checked on the boy and got him carefully into his saddle before getting on his own, carrying the girl home on his horse with the boy in tow to see the Maester.
It wasn't until he got home and the girl was checked out and taken care of that her brother finally opened up. When it was found out that they were the heirs of House Dayne of Dorne, the family practically came unglued. It was worried that House Dayne may take this as an act of aggression or an attempted kidnapping. A runner was sent immediately offering safe passage into their lands for whomever the family wished to come retrieve their kids. The situation was resolved, surprisingly in a good way. House Dayne believed with the testimony of the kids that this had not been a kidnapping but a simply outing gone wrong. Pleased with how the boy had saved their kids life, and that the family had taken such good care of their offspring House Dayne offered to have their second born be a ward to the family in an attempt to keep good relations between the two houses.
It wasn't too surprising that Brydan became close to young Athera, often showering her with a bit of extra attention, taking her out on picnics and rides through the countryside with him during his free time. Unfortunately free time began to grow smaller and farther in between as he grew older. His responsibilities grew as he attempted to show the House that he could be a fine Lord in his own right. It was the passing of the twenty fifth anniversary of Dannith's name day that Lord _______ announced Dannith's official claim to being Heir. An announcement that Brydan unfortunately knew would eventually happen but always hoped that he could prevent. He began depressed and regressed into some rather...unbecoming behaving, spending his time in the taverns and having playful trysts with some of the less honorable women.
His family took action, wanting to prevent him from tarnishing his good name and the House's with a scandal of some kind. He had been careful, something that was surprising considering how much he enjoyed the attention of any and everyone. A great hunt was put on on the twenty fourth anniversary of his name day. The Master of the Hunt took the young man as his second and the pair of them went off to bag the Shadowcats that were plaguing the smallfolk and their cattle. Indeed it was thanks to the careful tutelage of the Master that the pair fell upon the largest of the pack. The Master held back, letting the boy claim the kill. Brydan hit the mark with surprising luck but the Master saw a great huntsman in him yet.
Upon examining the body of the Matriarch of the pack, the Master concluded that she had been pregnant only recently and due to the scarcity of their natural prey in this area the pack had been forced to do what they must and push into the human's territory. He talked Brydan into following along the trail of the mother, deeper into the night. They managed to find the den and upon making sure it was clear of any more of the beasts, they slipped inside. They found a single kitten still alive. It seemed that the pack had indeed fallen unto hard times. Brydan pulled out his blade ready to put the poor thing out of it's misery. The Master stayed his hand and picked up the poor starving thing and grabbed Brydan's hand forcing the kitten into his palm. The Master said only this "It's time you learn what it takes to be a true hunter, raise this beast and learn from it. There is no better way to learn then to live with them".
It was an odd lesson to offer the young man, for typically Shadowcats were not the pet of a noble much less a man. But it was this little beast, this Tempest, that brought him out of his depression and gave him purpose again in life. He had found his calling in that hunt and had taken to studying the ways of the Hunt under the Master himself. True he was a bit old for teaching but he had talent that the Master saw and a kind heart that he could trust wouldn't cause the man to damage the wildlife around them and their lands in their lifetime.

The Anointed Knight Path would work as fir sponsor, I think it would make sense that it would be someone out of the House, especially since you don't have a Sept in your lands.
Alright, realized I'm at the point I might need some GM information and need some information from my 'brother'.
How big is our family? Do you want us to decide or do you want to limit it a bit so you have less NPCs you might have to possible make/run?
As large as you want if you want to spend your influence. You don't need to spend any influence for Darkest to be Heir since he is the Lord to begin with.
Actually I have a thought on the location! If you all go to you PDF and go to the map all the way down to Dorne please. Locate Starfall, seat of House Dayne. It is just out of the Mountains by the coast.
Now, once you have that move you attention west, that is left for those who don't want to look at the compass. Just pass those mountains there, that all belongs to the Reach. You could settle right next to those mountains, be close enough for the story Jing and I have set up, and have access to all the types of lands, save deserts.
So, GM what you think about my backstory and how to fit with the House (others as well?)
Mainly considering it due to my changed background plus wealth (due to me getting that superior Scale armor which I could not afford otherwise. Or just maybe another idea to pop out)
Also I am thinking something about our possible spending of points regarding land. Will post something shortly
Defense: 20
Influence: 49
Lands: 41
Law: 21
Population: 32
Power: 40
Wealth: 35
Most likely we will want to have that something like this but of course just my opinion
Defense: Hall (20 points) although considering the history of House and its age Small Castle would have been better, but unfortunately DICE Gods are cruel some times
Influence: 20 influence saved due to no need to spend for Lord spot so lets see what we get with this.
Lands: I would prefer here a bit spread for multiple reasons -> to have wide spread of options to the future plus as well trying to maximise our gain of wealth or just roleplaying for later (here I am min-maxing a bit)
Forest for wood & timber, mountains or hills for mining, sea for fishing & trading,.
1) Domain: Plains + Hammlet + Coast (18) with our Hall
2) Domain: Hills + Hammlet (17)
3) Domain: Wetlands + Wood(Light) (6)
Total Cost of 41 Lands. Would allow us to to nicely expand later to a lot of things as well geographically makes us place somewhere near Oldtown (maybe between *Blackcrown* & *Bandallon*)
Power: Having a lot power and considering the age of House, 1 Banner House is at least a must, imho. (20)
Trained Infantry (7) & Green Archers (4) + Green Sailors (5) + Green Scouts (3) (All together 19) **This leaves us with +1 Power (which we could use later for Peasant levies if needed)
Wealth:
Maester (10) + Port (10) (due to us having Coast & Green Sailors) + Marketplace (10) (30 so far spent)
this leaves us with 5 Wealth (Selfish request / Advancing my own character interest -> Get Godswood for 5 wealth :))
or might also take a look what other stuff we can get with 5 wealth or save it for later use
I would honestly save it. But I am also the person who was honestly thinking about saving three DP... I settled on two DP so I could have Compelling.
I think Govo's break down is rather good. I'm also surprised that having an old family doesn't give you a bit more defense or make the cost of castles go down...
So, GM what you think about my backstory and how to fit with the House (others as well?)
Mainly considering it due to my changed background plus wealth (due to me getting that superior Scale armor which I could not afford otherwise. Or just maybe another idea to pop out)
Also I am thinking something about our possible spending of points regarding land. Will post something shortly
Normally I would Err on the side if caution and say no, but yesterday I killed four players in an irl campaign off of a single puzzle so I am going to say yes.
Also good point about the age of the House on Defense. I get home it should have atleast the one Bannerman due to it but a Hall just seems like child's play.
So I am also doing up a possible spending of points and will post that separately, but as for the position of the house, I do have an idea also. Two really.
Marked on the map are two possible locations. The one I am more partial to is marked with a red X and would give us access to a Harbor / the sea which I think would be good for us.
The second mark is blue and places us closer to the center of power for our area and would give us more interaction with our Liege lord.
I am leaning towards the red mark more so as we get more autonomy
EDIT: Actually that break down is basically what I was going to suggest also. +1
You actually need to move the red x over to the left a bit. Where you have it now is actually in Dorne... On House Dayne's lands... Dorne's lands end where the montains end. Then it begins the Reach.
That said! I do agree with the general area of the red x. As the blue one would be too far for Brydan to have saved the Dayne children.
Edit: Also! Try reading this PDF on your phone.... It's a pain and takes forever to get where you want to go. But I'm bored at work and it's dead here so I have all the time to read! XD
While reading I came across the tournament section, and it got me thinking. I know! Dangerous. But hear me out. Dannith is freshly the Lord now, why not use that 5 remaining wealth to start off planning a tourney for Dannith new Lordship? Unless the GM wants to steal my idea as a starting point with us paying little to nothing... >>...<<...>< I'd be okay with that too... * whistles innocently*
-.- This is the last time I work with a mind reading player. :P The idea may have struck me when it was mentioned that the Lord came into power recently.
hm, when is our planned starting date?
It seems like we are starting to come along quite nicely and shaping up. So far only thing we need to do is finalize our House and Land location plus Weyland finds the character, he likes to play (no need to rush with the design. Take your time from my part)
Just interested to know
-.- This is the last time I work with a mind reading player. :P The idea may have struck me when it was mentioned that the Lord came into power recently.
What is it they say? Great minds think alike? XD
And I'm not always reading minds, else the story goes out the window!
What size tourney where you thinking of doing?
Edit: Plan starting date is 200AC
Okay so we need to finalise family name, motto and founding event. Thenjoy I can write a piece for backstory for me and the massive wood chopper I carry.
Also we need to create a Crest
Oh! There is one thing I wanted to ask! The Banner house, do we want to give it to Marcus? He has the status for it, and wants it no?
I also had an idea on the family crests... Even if Athera isn't part of the family...(yet)
Edit: Crest idea: Rayonne back ground of green and purple with a silver tree on it.
Annnd I have another question! How much do you all know about the first Blackfyre rebellion?
Oh! There is one thing I wanted to ask! The Banner house, do we want to give it to Marcus? He has the status for it, and wants it no?
I also had an idea on the family crests... Even if Athera isn't part of the family...(yet)
Edit: Crest idea: Rayonne back ground of green and purple with a silver tree on it.
I don't see a problem with him being the Lord of the Banner House, or a member of it.
I quite like the idea myself. I think if Marcus is any way combat oriented that he and Dennith would get along well. Like Rob and Ed.
Yeah but that makes me worry, which ones which?! XD
Also, the reason I asked about the Blackfyre rebellion is because the first one happened in 196 AC, the Reach sided with the Blackfyres along with the Storm lands. Because those two and Dorne have always had... Issues. The reason this need to be brought up is because, Athera would have been about 15 at the time... And in this House. So unless the scandal Darkest rolled was everyone finding out that this House had a Dayne under their roof as a ward and did not kill her or sided with Dorne against their own countrymen... You see the issue?
Edit: Hey Jing! Didn't you want more drama? I think this adds more drama! XD
|
|
~whines~ But I liked myyyyy choices...I kid, actually yours makes more sense for increasing wealth and the like in the long run. It gives me a sad that I don't have the ruins or Mine but I concede.
Can we at least have a Master of the Hunt in the Banner house? It fits so well for character story >.<
Also I am a gambler so I'm cool with the Godswood. Also it makes sense for someone more in tune with nature to worship the old gods then the seven, if he worships at all.
Red X marks the spot for me.
Also....
Blackbury 2 votes
Corrid or Bardun 1 vote
Also...since we kinda have a weird situation, it really only matters to two people in this group. We have the two eldest brothers of House _____ and the rest are a Bannerman, and two wards?
How you wanna settle this Darkest, I vote armed combat in Kansas...it's open plains everywhere
I'm cool with drama. Hell that makes sense for the Scandal.
Ugh but I am in Ireland and that is so far to go... how about we meet somewhere in the middle? I'll be the guy with the big red beard and the axe.
For real though we can go with Blackbury. I think we need an animal on our Crest however and a badass motto, something like "With Blood and Bone know our Wrath" or something.
Use the same color and field I suggested just replace the tree with a silver wyvrn?
Motto: "Though blood and steel, we Endure"?
:D heh
So if I take control over banner house, need to do some rolling for it then. Plus sure Jing, will get Master of the Hunt at least there. Need to see though what I keep rolling for it so... DICE Gods, here we go again
and.... holy macaroni, what would I expect from relatively new Banner House, absolutely shocking low but well, we can manage it somehow heh :P
Just need to play around but seems to fit everything so far if it just started out. Waiting just GM input on this
:D heh

May have misread again but shouldn't it be 5d6 not 5d5
And this is the Profile for Dennith.
Okay so for the Crest I like the idea of the colours, Purple and a Forest Green. I'm thinking we should do it on an embattled heraldic line, purple on the bottom and green on top. And I am liking the idea of a Bull, rampant.
What do you think?
Edit: Oh and the only reason I am against Rayonne is it is a little Dornish
>>
<<
I'm bias! Sue me! >_<
This is really between you and Jing. Since it is your family.
Did you like the motto?
Oh I meant to say that I did yeah. I can see it being shortened to "We Endure" before combat.
Or if you are defending,
Commander: "Thought Blood"
Soldiers: "We Endure"
Commander: "With steel"
Soldiers: "We Endure!"
Also, did Dennith support his father for not killing Athera? Or siding with Dorne? Which ever you chose.
Note: Athera most likely locked herself in her room when she heard of the war.
Hmm. I think our scandal should be the refusal of taking your life. We likely sided against Dorne but refused to have you killed or indeed handed over to another house.
Dennith was the perfect son so yes he sided with his father. That is not to say that he did not disagree with his father but only that he did it in private, only between the two of them and likely no one knew he felt differently.
Dennith is big and quiet and reserved.
And seeing as Athera was most likely locked in her room the whole war, she most likely didn't know what either of her foster brothers thought... unless they told her.
Thankfully it didn't last long! They where crushed within the year.
I'll type up her backstory now that we have the main points set in stone.
Also, Bryden spent time with her, but did Dennith?
He probably escorted her riding a time or two but he would have spent most of his own time being prepped to take over for his father or working on his fighting.
