So just an update, I have changed the code for the character sheet since it's been posted as there was a few mistakes in it. If you've already started using that code I apologise. The bold isn't done properly on the History part of the sheet and the font setting was done poorly so didn't actually work. It should all be fine now though.

And I have started a Character thread in the Small Extreme Groups Section, and linked it to the first post. Also below is my first character for the game if anyone wants to check it out.

Thank you guys for the interest so far. If you know of any writing partners that you've written with that might be interested, point them in this direction if you wish. I'm off to bed, hope you all have a good night sleep or a great day if your reading this early tomorrow.

Excited to add Arianne Martell and Elyse Cleaber to the cast. Check the characters thread if you want to read up on the new cast members.

Might be a good idea to have player and face claim on the character sheets, as right now we don't have face claim names and it looks like you're playing all characters. Lol.

I love a GOT game, placing an interesting flag and a face claim if possible (Henery Cavil).

Concept - either a son/cousin from House Redwyne (Reach) but primarily works as an emissary of sorts, to secure shipping from the island around Dorne to Essos and Beyond. 

So we can enjoy the Arbor Gold vs Dornish Red japes and trading that benefits both houses.

Forgot to mention I am on vacation next week, so I may be going radio silent after this weekend.

Would like to reserve Aida Ruiz (IG: twinges_of_honey).

That is a good idea, and it is now done.

I mean personally I'd happily drink both. But should be fun, especially with the history between Dorne and the Reach. Look forward to the character sheet.

Also should hopefully be easy to join the game if we do start it next week.

I'd be interested, but don't have a ton of ideas at the moment, i'm thinking maybe a squire to someone?

Well my character is a knight if you do really want to be a squire.

There's the Dayne's, Martell's and Cleaber/Manwoody Houses if you want to link yourself with a player, but I'd approach the players before hand if you were to do that.

Yronwood's are a major house of Dorne not yet represented.

Just some ideas.

I'm not super deep into the lore for GoT, but my interest is piqued.

Tentative concept is a Qohorik Blacksmith laying low in Dorne. I'm thinking he maybe knows a few secrets about Valeryian steel that Qohor would rather not see fall into outside hands, and so they would very much like to see him dead if they manage to find him. I assume there'll be plenty of knights desiring high quality armour and weapons to keep him in work?

You managed to find an area of Essos I'd forgotten about so my hat off to you. I'm sure all of Westeros would want someone who can make fine armour and weapons for sure. Not any valyrian steel in Dorne though that I recall. But still his skills would be coveted.

We have added Alys Mormont to the character list and also there is now a discord once people have sent in an approved character sheet.

Anybody is free to create characters as member of my character's court if that's something that interests you. She is the wife of the lord of Kingsgrave. The lord is most likely a skilled fighter, so squires smiths and other people are welcome.

Very interesting concept, I shall keep my eye on this.  ;)

This looks like fun! I'll have to cobble together a character concept.

If you're allowing face claim requests, may I please reserve Katie McGrath?

Consider Katie McGrath reserved and I look forward to your cobbling?  ;D

I seriously doubt anybody else will even consider him, but I'm thinking of using
Hrithik Roshan
for my face claim.

I started working on a character but I'm going to let it stew for a couple of days as Qohor turned out to be a much darker place than I expected and I'm not quite sure where I want to go with that just yet. Blood sacrifice is apparently a big thing in Qohor,  which could be interesting, but I figure I should probably ask if you're okay with me embracing elements of that?

Ahh, I did wonder when you said about Qohor how dark you were planning on going. I am okay with blood sacrifice being in the game as long as it's played a bit like Melisandre in the show. It's part of the ASOIAF world so I'm okay with it. Of course any use of it in a story or writing with a partner you'd have to clear with that partner specifically.

If anyone does object though we can of course discuss.

Hrithik isn’t used near often enough. Good choice.

So Far

Prince Doran Martell has called his lords to Sunspear for an unknown reason under the pretence of a celebration feast. What the celebration is for has still not been made clear to the Lord's and Ladies of Dorne. So far the Lord Regent of High Hermitage has arrived at the Sandship, the castle of Sunspear, where Lady Elyse Cleaber and Lady Alys Mormont are already there, in the courtyard of the Sandship. Meanwhile Arianna Martell the Princess of Dorne and her father Doran Martell are reading to recieve their guests and Kodo Szot has arrived in Sunspear.
