No problem. I assumed that would happen. I only gave him increases because he is an 11 year old second.

I know this. I only did that, as to show that I'm choosing between one of them, so I don't forget when it's official. The slash is supposed to signify that it's one or the other.

My post TJ character:
Character Name: Lady Ephira Delinal
Character Age: 19
Character Nationality: Braavosi
Character Byname: Sandfish
Character Skills:
Expert: Waterdancing
Noteworthy: Daggerwork Noteworthy: Spearwork
Apprentice: Stealth Apprentice: Intrigue
Novice: Poison Novice: Disguise
Beginner: Sailing Beginner: Archery
Character Personal History:
Ephira was born in Braavos during the Era of the Dornish Bazaar, a bastard daughter to the Sea Lord--though her appearance betrayed her mother's heritage without question, her father never spoke a word about her mother--her name, her position, her rank...the whole of her mother's nature remained a mystery to Ephira, who was the only bastard daughter of Lord Delinal to gain legitimization, and, indeed had always been a favourite of the Lord of Braavos.
Shortly after her nineteenth birthday, Lady Ephira travelled to Dorne to seek out answers concerning her long-lost mother--though she had very little information to work with, she wanted to learn her mother's culture, and find whatever clues the missing woman might have left behind.
Physical Description:
Ephira has the olive hue in her skin that is native to both Braavos and Dorne, yet her complextion is quite fair. She has light green eyes that can only have come from her mother, and brown hair. She is short in staure, like her father--only five feet, and three inches tall.
Character Reputation:
Ephira is kind-hearted, good-natured, though very sheltered. She generally does not have any ill-intentions, yet she is very naive concerning Westerosi culture, and often says tremendously offensive things without realizing it. Though her ignorance of Western culture often leaves the impression of a frivolous nature, Ephira is really quite inteligent within her limmited range of interests, which inclue languages, history, and weaponry. She is loyal, devout, and has a very relaxed personality.

Character Name: Lord Terrence Blackwood
Age: b. 515
Nationality: Riverlands.
Skills
Expert Battle Noteworthy Finance Noteworthy Intrigue Apprentice Sword Apprentice Lance Novice Horsemanship Novice Archery Beginner Unarmed Combat Beginner Ballroom Dancing
History: The night Terrence Blackwood was born, a star fell from the sky, levelling cities and slaying thousands. Many whispered a birth on such a night was an ill omen, and indeed Terrence grew up in a period where the realm was wracked by near-constant war. At Raventree Hall, however, he was sheltered from the worst of it, and soon proved himself a studious and intelligent child.
At the age of 16, Terrence ascended to lordship of a beaten and battered house. House Blackwood's treasury was in shambles and its very name was stained by the traitorous Crow. Nonetheless, Terrence resolved to be the one to turn his house's misfortunes around.
To remedy his financial woes, Terrence married the daughter of a wealthy Lysian nobleman; her dowry was rumored to be enough to pay a king's ransom. His contacts with his in-laws allowed him to set up businesses of his own, and he soon proved himself an adept student of economics.
Erasing the stain on House Blackwood's honor has proven to be a slower and more difficult task. Nonetheless, Terrence has done his best to cultivate friendships with the other lords of the realm, particularly the Riverlords.
Physical Description: Tall, with the raven-black hair typical of house Blackwood, many have remarked that Terrence is the spitting image of his father. His eyes are a muddy brown and his features are handsome.
Reputation: Although Terrence is the son of a renowned swordsman and the grandson of a legendary general, it is the reputation of his uncle the Crow that he finds most difficult to live down. Those who know him, however, find him an affable and intelligent man.
//////// SECOND ////////
Name: Lucas Blackwood
Age: b. 531 (Currently 13)
Nationality: The Riverlands
Skills:
Noteworthy Spear Noteworthy Stealth Apprentice Bow Apprentice Poisonlore Novice Green Dreams Novice Unarmed Fighting Beginner Speed Beginner Horsemanship
History: The firstborn child of Terrence and Sophitia Blackwood. At a young age he was sent North to foster at Winterfell, and he is currently the ward of Lord Olander Reed.
Physical Description: Having just gone through a growth spurt, Lucas resembles the spear he wields; tall and skinny as a rail. He has the dark hair of House Blackwood, but where his father keeps his close cropped, Lucas' hair is a long and unruly mane. His eyes are a muddy brown and a chipped tooth lends an offbeat charm to his smile.
Reputation: Winterfell's staff swears the boy must be half-wildling, as he is prone to run off to the Wolfswood and disappear for days at a time. Has something of a mischievous streak, but a deep faith in the Old Gods.
/////// THIRD ///////
Name: Ser Daeron Blackwood.
Age: b. 515
Nationality: Riverlands
Skills:
Noteworthy Flail Apprentice Lance Novice Horsemanship Beginner Brawling
History: Daeron Blackwood was born the eldest son of Lord Horas Blackwood and Lady Jenny Tully. He spent his earliest years at Riverrun, but once that castle was taken from his father he moved briefly to Raventree Hall, under the care of his uncle, and then to Duskendale, where he was a ward of Lady Aranya Royce. He squired under Ser Clive Lannister and was knighted by him for valor in battle. Since then he has wandered the realm, pledging his sword where he sees fit.
Physical Description: Broad shouldered and well-muscled, when Daeron dons his armor and wields his flail he is an impressive sight. He keeps a full beard.
Reputation: Known for his extremely short temper, Ser Daeron is nonetheless extremely loyal to those who gain his friendship; most notably, his foster brother Brynden Royce.

Post by Erik on Oct 10, 2008 3:29:21 GMT -5
Character Name: 'Lord' Jhorgo Erikson Greyjoy
Character Age: 26, b. 519
Character Nationality: Ironborn father, Dothraki mother
Character Skills: Expert: Naval Battle Noteworthy: Axe Noteworthy: Sailing Apprentice: Riding Apprentice: Fistfighting Novice: Drinking Novice: Ambush Beginner: Harp Beginner: Singing
Character Personal History: Jhorgo is the son of Erik Greyjoy, formerly Erik Coldiron, formerly Erik Pyke, by his first salt wife, Rhelis, a former Dothraki slave captured while reaving. Much of his youth was spent on Bear Island, his father's fief. However, he and his family were captured along with the island by Northern invaders upon the Ironborns' ill-fated declaration of independence.
Jhorgo, his mother, and his half-sister, Helya, spent the next few years as captives, first to Lord Olander Reed and then Lord Joramun Goodbrother. However, they were released to the custody of their cousin, Mortimer Greyjoy (Pyke), on the condition that they swear never to seek the Seastone Chair.
Since then, Jhorgo has mainly been raised by his 'uncle' Morty, traveling both Westeros and the East. First, these travels were largely incognito, but soon became adventures in reaving. Cap'n Jho has amassed a small fortune and a fleet of six ships, mainly crewed by Ironborn seeking a return to the Old Way. Braavos' considerable shipping with Westeros and the Stepstones provides much of their funding. He captains the longship Bloody Fool.
Character Physical Description: An inch or two over six feet, Jhorgo has the tanned skin and black hair of a Dothraki, not looking much like his father's family save for his eyes, cold and grey.
Character Reputation: Well, that depends entirely on who you ask. A Braavosi merchant might say he's pirate scum, a blight on the shipping industry. An Ironborn captain might chuckle and shake his head, muttering about the Old Way. A Westerosi would likely shrug and say he doesn't have time to blather about upstart reavers in the Narrow Sea.
Second:
Character Name: Octavion Greyjoy
Character Age: 21, b. 524
Character Nationality (Stormlands, The Reach, etc): Ironborn father, King's Landinger mother
Character Skills:
Noteworthy: Short Sword Noteworthy: Stealth Apprentice: Ambush Apprentice: Sailing Novice: Unarmed Novice: Braavosi Beginner: Riding Beginner: Drinking
Character Personal History: Born to Erik Greyjoy's salt wife Dacey, madame of House Avalon in King's Landing, Octavion spent his first six years with her. But, while still a boy, he was taken in by his 'uncle' Mortimer, in truth his father's cousin, to learn the Ironborn ways. Octavion took to sailing and reaving just fine, but his real lessons came from Mortimer's less-common talents: stealth, murder, and discretion.
He now sails with his elder half-brother Jhorgo, captaining the longship Whore's Whelp.
Character Physical Description: Of middling height and skinny, with black hair usually pulled back into a ponytail. He often keeps his beard trimmed into a goatee, thinking it makes him look more dashing.
Character Reputation: Octavion lacks one, and that's how he prefers it.
Third:
Character Name: Helya Greyjoy
Character Age: b. 522
Character Nationality (Stormlands, The Reach, etc): Ironborn
Character Skills:
Noteworthy: Swordswomanship Apprentice: Sailing Novice: Naval Battle Beginner: Drinking
Character Personal History: Helya is the one product of Erik Greyjoy's salt wife, Gysella Harlaw. She was born and raised on Bear Island, her father's fief, alongside her half-brother Jhorgo. Much as the ladies-in-waiting did to turn her into a proper young lady, they ultimately failed, and, when she and her siblings were taken in by Mortimer, he taught her alongside her brothers.
Now, she is a fine reaver, as bloodthirsty as any man, if not moreso. She sails with her brother's flotilla, commanding the longship Bitch of a Kraken.
Character Physical Description: Helya takes much after her mother, with slightly-curly brown hair and a small build. The helm, mail, and leather that she tends to wear obscure such things, however. Her face is a bit freckled, with a small nose and blue eyes. One thing she does seem to have inherited from her father is her mouth, both in how prone it is to smile or laugh, and what tends to come out of it.
Character Reputation: A reaver, made famous as much by her gender as her skill. Some say she takes her crew to her bed one at a time (Or by twos or threes, depending on who's doing the telling). Those who say it within her hearing usually regret it soon after.

1) Character Name: Loren Malin Irwyn, Lord of Uplands
2) Character Age: B. 520
3) Character Nationality: Far Reach
4) Character Byname: None
5) Character Skills: Expert: Great Axe Noteworthy: Battle Noteworthy: Horsemanship Apprentice: Fortifications Novice: Merchant Novice: Political Intrigue Beginner: Religion- The Seven
6) Character's Second: Dorian Irwyn Florent, Lord of Brightwater 7) Character Age: B. 521 8) Character Nationality: Far Reach 9) Character Byname: None
Noteworthy: Battle Apprentice: Long Sword Apprentice: Historical Research Novice: Languages- Braavosi Novice: Political Intrigue Beginner: Religion - The Seven
7) Character Personal History: The sons of the Legendary General Alexander Irwyn and the beautful Dacey Florent: Loren, Dorian and their sister Corinne did their best to make sense of a life that was met with personal tragedy at every turn. Their mother died at a very young age when she was killed in retribution to their father's pricipled stand against Horas Blackwood's Coups.
With there father away for much of their young lives, the Irwyn children developed close relationships with their adopted mother Lady Anne Varner who helped raise them as well as her own children, Cyrus and Shauna Varner and the Lord of the Far Reach Justin Hightower. The six, nicknamed the Orphan's of Oldtown due to the loss of their highly prestigious fathers were nearly inseperable growing up and continue to remain important allies now that they are older.
Loren Irwyn did his squireship with Lord Robert Tarly at Hornhill and was a quick study with the Great Axe and in construction like his Father. With a famous father, Loren always had to deal with the challenges of living up to a man that others including Tarly knew very well but that he had only known for 4 or 5 years. Loren's desire to live up to his father's high standard created a steadfast dedication to training and self improvement although a lingering voice of self doubt that will hopefully improve as he rises to the new challenges.
Dorian Irwyn Florent was adopted by his Grandfather and Grandmother when Alphonse Florent was left without a heir do the the death of his son and Dorian's mother. While the Brightwater claim was the stronger claim, Alphonse and his wife Sybill pressed for the younger son to serve as heir as he possesed the more delicate qualities of House Florent that he got from his mother. More bookish and studious then his older brother, Dorian was well read and possesed an insatible desire for knowledge from Brightwater's Maester. He maintains a strong attachment to his mother's memory as he was rumored to be with her when she was tortured to death shortly after his birth.
The two Irwyn siblings remain distrustful of outsiders, prefering to rely exclusively on their fellow Lords of the Far Reach. They both have had a strong upbringing in the teachings of the Seven, a request of their late father that was personally supervised by the Septon of the Starry Sept. They are wary of involvements in the realms political matters as they see the darkness and treachery of the game of politics as the reason for their father's death. They maintain their conviction that their father was murdered by Cedric Lannister though it was never proven and have a distrust of all Lannister's who they view as devious manipulators and cravens. Loren and Dorian have an appreciation for Dornish culture thanks to the influence of Lady Lysette Tarly formerly of House Vaith and their belief that there Father had "reformed" the land during his campaign there.
8) Character Physical Description: Loren is tall and muscular built like his father with his father's black hair and eyes. Dorian is smaller and more delicate in his structure then his older brother and shares his mother's brown hair and brown eyes.
9) Character Reputation: Most of their reputation stems from that of their father who still enjoys large amounts of respect in the Far Reach. Conversely their heritage is probably an equal detractor among Dornish circles for the same reason.
