Welcome to the Great Game!
Game of Thrones: The Great Game is a rolepay forum where you can play as whoever you choose. It's set right at the start of the Seven Kingdoms, well before the time of the books or television show, however consider this an Alternative Universe as the political landscape isn't the same as it was. I mean, where would the fun be to leave you guys in content situations? For example, if you want the Stark House to be Lords of Winterfell, you'll have to make them Lords of Winterfell!
The way the game works. It is rather long winded, just due to the mechanics that are being used, but hopefully this adds a degree of randomness and reality.
1. Your first step is to register an account and head here to fill out an application for your character.
2. After this; you'll be assigned to a random House. I repeat that you will not choose your own House. Please remember that this is set at the beginning; none of the Houses have the reputations they currently have. Their reputations are what you make them!
3. During the application, you'll assign 120 points between a number of abilities. These will be your core stats and will affect how your Game is played. For instance, if you're attempting to persuade a fellow Minor Lord to follow your cause to rebel, your Persuasion will effect the outcome. So will that player's stats - their Awareness or Cunning could come in to play, depending on their motives and/or personaility.
Every time you successfully use one of your stats, another point will be added to it so you can potentially level up that stat, which would result in a higher 'dice roll', if you will.
For this to happen, and for the administrators to know which stats you believe you're using in your post, we require that you put which stats are being used in [ ] at the bottom of each post. The admins may deem that some stats are not being used, and we'll make you aware of this in our return post explaining the outcome of your decisions.
