Who's Marina?

A cute little girl I found in the ruins of KL. She's a very good actress

Considering the Iron Islands are pretty sparsely populated and not one of 'the seven kingdoms' (that may change ) we're giving you a damned good fight. Should the Royces, Stormlords, Reachlords or Starks finally get involved - you're screwed.

I'm not going to sugar coat it. Blackwood land is squished between 4 other great houses, three of which are loyal to me, and one is neutral. Even the Riverlands are divided. Don't worry though, I have to admit the time while I was in exile and on the run was actually kind of fun.

That is why I'm waiting for Callen's famous chivilry when the Blackwoods get screwed over. I hope I won't be shackled to a wall this time though.

Your uncle Terrence is a looney though.

Actually I was reading this the other day, the Iron Islands are more Seven Kingdomish than the Riverlands. The riverlands never had a king, but were ruled over by the Ironborn .

[lordbalorgreyjoy]

Hmm, well you could argue the same for the Stormlands in many respects. I've always thought their lineage was fairly vague.
The Dornish, Lannister, Arryn, Stark & Greenhand/Tyrell all came from the Age of Heroes.
Apart from the legendary builder of Storms End, I don't know of any other major characters really. The Baratheon's never claimed to be from an ancient line that I know of

It's true that the Baratheons are the youngest of the Great Houses. The first Baratheon Storm King killed the previous line of Storm Kings, IIRC. But they do actually date back to the Age of Heroes. There was some guy named Duran.

Edit: Wait, I'm not sure the Duran guy was a Baratheon, or just a Storm King from the Age of Heroes. I'll have to check on that.

[Percy Rivers]

Yah, and he took the Storm King's name, words, and lands.

Yep. So Spake the Wikipedia:

"It is the youngest of the great Houses, tracing its descent from Orys Baratheon, one of Aegon the Conqueror's fiercest generals, and rumored to be his bastard brother. Through the female line, the Baratheons are descended from the Storm Kings, as Orys slew Argilac the Arrogant, last of the Storm Kings, and married his daughter. Orys adopted the sigil and words of his wife's ancestral line. The line of the Storm Kings dates back to the Age of Heroes when their kingdom was founded by King Durran I "Godsgrief", a legendary hero."

You mean father Terrence He's not a looney! He might not be a very good judge of character (siding with Aedon was rather pathetic), but I loved his responses to Callen. They made me giggle.

[Percy Rivers]

Oh my gawd, it's killing me about how lenient Callen is being. And because I know what's going on inside his head, it's killing him too. Back in the day he was kind of known for executing traitors and outlaws. But Bethany's influence has been preasurring him to show some mercy, starting with Rhodri. Besides in the words of one Tywin Lannister, "when your enemy kneels you accept them back, not chop of your heads." Not exactly verbatim, but it went something like that.

[Deleted]

Now Bethany's dead, so do your thing. I'm loling at the idea of Callen suddenly becoming Khal Drogo.

[Percy Rivers]

Callen becmoing Khal Drogo?

[melon]

As Kid Death is lord of Dragonstone now, im suggesting that you only make him Lord of Dragonstone and not also Overlord of all the islands around there as he would be inchage of these houses, Bar Emmon of Sharp Point, House Celtigar of Claw Isle, House Sunglass of Sweetport Sound and House Velaryon of Driftmark

You were talking about having trouble with his mercy, etc. So just go the Khal Drogo way - ruthless and awesome.
