Warlord, if I was considering dividing my attack between Ser Kennet and his mount. With Fighting 4 and 2B Long Blades, if I were to split evenly would it be 2d from Fighting and the 2B applying to both attacks? 4d6 keep 2 vs both Ser Kennet and his mount. Or do the 2B get divided as well so that it would be 3d6 keep 2 vs both?
Fighting 4, Long Blades 2B
Fighting 2, 1 B - This would be divided even.
I will be unable to post or very spotty from this Wednesday through Sunday as I am moving. Please DMPC me as needed. Thanks.
Alright, I am finally moved in and mostly up and running, time to catch up on my threads...
o.o Assassins at the Naelareon complex?
Can we assume that there are arms available in the tent due to being at war?
I have my battleaxe, bow, and dagger.
Hypothetically my boar spear could be nearby...
I gave you a chance to be ready before the scene, Ser Weyland at least got his armor, much to Maester Lucen dislike, best you can manage is a dagger Darne, Garran get's no spear.
You can move to get one and finish your turn grabbing a sword or spear which is the probably closest weapons you could find
I'm beginning to suspect this Warlord character is plotting against me...sending some many dangerous people after me. It's almost like he has an agenda....
I would check on your lord Father... after all there was 5 assassins 2 in the tent one right outside. Where are the other two?
The problem with the faith militant is they are like "sleeper cells" so it could have been your guardsmen and fight for you at some point, but once the Faith called on him, he changed so it was probably the guards in turn that left them in, so you might have some investigating to do and hopefully good rolls.
But this can give you a clue of what you are dealing with and hoping to find.
With Lord Domeric dead, does that mean I no longer have a Sponsor? Also, if so, doea that mean the Destiny Point is returned?
No, Darne counts as your sponsor for the "benefits" so you do not lose it, just changes to Darne.
Are we about to take prisoners to torture ;) Seems the son will inherit the father's title and hatred of the faith militant with it.
G+* d@~ned right I will torture this man, fool that he was to survive and not slit his own throat when he had the chance >.> I may be channeling a bit of Darne's own father and rage at present ^^.
Mom Naelareon will survive, her stabbing was theatrical GM fiat purposes.
Tournament is almost over, and some House Rules will come in effect n regards to Domains and other tiny things :) if needed.but you will roll for 12 months of events. So far you can use the following event's in your "Off season" time of 12 months
3 month campaign (Maybe two if you steam roll this mofo's)
Purging of Faith
A war against the Faith Militant, 1 skirmish (Still a mass battle) and 2 mass battles that end in the siege of 7 Star Keep (for the 7 statues that are displayed in the walls.
4 month event, with some battling and some tracking/investigate (Garran most likely best PC to do)
The Ruined King's Inheritance
Ser Ereth recovery of his very very old knightly house heirloom weapon and his lands.
Possible events you can participate:
1 month
The Griffin's Nest - Another Garran strong event, as it's killing a griffin in Coldbrook's lands, gain Influence
2 months
Clearing Durain's Forest - Cleansing of bandits from the forest and Rugar's Keep, Gain influence + Perhaps something else, and problems as to whom this lands should belong to after that.
2 Months
Pursuit Marriages - You can all marry in the same month or different months, this will cost Wealth to the House, but gain influence
I think Garran is going to be the biggest asset in the off season lol
The months that are unoccupied can be random events depending on your rolls, so there you have it your future off-season events so far.
After the "Off Season" comes the "King's Justice" Blackwoods vs. Bracken it's going to be a investigations, murder, subterfuge, deception and some sword playing involved to bring to justice and investigate the claims of both Houses.
Yeah I got 7 years worth of pain...er... awesome things to do :)
That sounds awesome! Cant wait for things starting to roll again with speed :)
Actually, what is going on with Marcus in that direction? Is the marriage still on with Darrys or its getting off due to events happening?
I am of course very intrigued by all that. Personally I am in the Faith Militant first, Ser Erath next, Griffin's Nest (Though, possibly tame that instead...would make for a hell of an asset), Possibly doing the Marriages during Griffin's Nest if possible, Durain's Forest....but that's me.
Damn!! Nice. I know I wanted to look into what happened to Matthias' parents, possible expinditure of DP towards wealth quality.
Woohoo! I'm very useful!
Starting with the Faith Militant war makes sense, since we've basically gotten started with that, but since we have 1 year (12 months), we can technically do all of the listed events. I'd definitely like to do one of the events that plays to my strengths.
I would agree we would want to go after the Faith Militant for what went down first for sure.
Matthias is a another of the "possible events" as it's a personal story he could do and perhaps take someone with him to help him, most events will be set rolls and a nice RP to go with them.
The possible events can involve all or just one player.
Matthias marriage would still be on, Ophelia's is not, the Darry that was to marry died during the night Wayland got poisoned, his rolls sucked. I do roll for them in my own house to determine things that don't need to clutter the posts more than they need to, and are things that don't affect directly any player.
Remember other Houses grow in power also or decline, they are not static things, and so are NPC's, while my story centers in the players and their House, PC's need to s1eek interaction with others, or be at the whims of the others.
More possible events may show up.
I'm all for Matthias' marriage, crushing the Faith Militant, and my personal story. Not sure how the rolls go for playing things out though. I will scour the book to get myself acquainted.
I'll post a "guide" so you have an idea, after all you have NPC knights and NPC banner Houses that are doing their thing also.
Wait....wahhh, Lord Naelareon is still alive?
Playing the Vice "Cruel" of Marcus since there has not been much opportunities for it plus it is part of him... Although somehow I also ended up Virtue "Just" which makes this hard for me to get somehow right personality mixing
And about Naelareon, I understood that it is just a bluff or? As if to keep even our own troops in ignorance about the real situation but ah well
I would keep even our troops in the lie to be honest. The less people know the truth the less likely someone's mouth is plied.
Yes, you are making it hard for someone outside of your inner circle to know, even lady Gwyneth doesn't know it.
It's just right now the PC's only and 1 guard that was inside the tent, that is everyone that knows about lord Domeric's death.
And the Maester who is sort of a DMPC anyway :-)
Not so much as a DMPC, just very useful for plot, guidance/ other purposes.
Let me know if you guys are resting and healing only for the afternoon. This day.... is not over yet buahahahaa
Any idea where Lord Darne is??
Forgive me, I was awaiting Marcus to post. He kept having things his character wanted to do so I was waiting for a post saying that he was joining Matthias and Lord Darne for the briefing.
My bad, I thought they were waiting on you lmao, I aoplogize.
They may...I tend to get lost sometimes myself in conversation posts
Hmmm hmmm hmm....I do need to think about this. Poor Matthias is quite upset.
Indeed, very IC behavior so you must decide to leave him be and take whatever consequences he bring with him, acknowledge he is right or convince him he is not.
I am leaning a tiny bit on knowing my cousin well enough to understand his mindset a bit. I am hoping I didn't meta with that post
Nice interaction between Darne and Matthias :)
Darne shall send out a missive to his sister under the title of Lord Naelareon as opposed to as Darne requesting that she check in as there is an urgent matter that concerns the House. From there he will go back to his breakfast with those that were to gather. At the "urgent" meeting with Cassandra, his mother, Marcus, and Maester Lucen he will be discussing the death of Lord Naelareon and seeing how everyone else feels that matter should be handled. He himself has offered his opinion on the matter but seeing how passionately opposed Matthias is to his current order, he has considered that perhaps it is not the best course of action. So he will be looking for the opinions of the rest of the house.
I like the interaction between Darne and Matthias as well. On one hand you have a young noble who understands the Game of Thrones; on the other, you have an ideologue. Makes for an interesting dynamic.
I am just curious as to how the end of the day is gonna play out so to speak, depending on how Warlord plays out the NPCs and Marcus's thoughts on it....Darne isn't afraid to call Matthias's 'bluff'
Thinking about it, I'm undecided if he's bluffing or xhafing at something that goes against his beliefs.
So you need to roll a good let's say deceit roll or language roll to fake out the signature and writing of Lord Naelareon.
You may yet not make it out of the day lol, all it's needed is to wrap up Darne and Matthias conversation, then Darne and lord Ulryden talks, before we fast forward until after the joust and post events.
Le gasp, defection from the ranks.
Well lord Darne, you will have a pleasant chat with House Peage or intrigue him to increase disposition at least??
Otherwise I'll fastforward.
Blarg, didn't even think of that. Forgives it's been a while since I've done a dice roll.
