 intro  an independent, private, multimuse blog hosting canon and original characters from ASOIAF.                     DEAD DOVE: DO NOT EAT.                      follows from @arenagods.

 rule i.  Welcome, my name is Skye and I use she/they pronouns. My timezone is AEST / GMT+11. This is a mature blog & I am twenty-nine; it goes without saying that I don't interact with minors in any capacity in my roleplaying, any non-rp or minors who interact will be hard-blocked, i don't often hardblock but i will softblock if my boundaries are breached.
                                                    boundaries; — see rule viii.
                                         Dead Dove: Do Not Eat; — see rule x. rule ii.  As stated, this is a Private & Selective (mutuals only) Multi-Muse blog dedicated to mostly canon characters, with my own originals or canon-inspired characters. they are all set within the world of A Song of Ice and Fire; with show and personal divergencies. These characters will feature book, show, canon appendix lore, and hc influences. — see rule v. rule iii.  We are always OC friendly in this house, on the condition the muse respects and/or takes into consideration canon lore, and there is a discernible biography or information on the original character for me to read. rule iv.  I will be keeping these muses in the ASOIAF universe, within this I am always open to all kinds of timeline adaptions or other changes to make threads and interactions not so limited by canon eras. to be transparent, i tend not to follow blogs that aren't asoiaf muses, no shade of course! rule v.  Note that I have not (yet) watched House of the Dragon but I am very familiar the book lore. I am not avoidant of potential spoilers, but may ask questions obvious to those who've seen the show. Evidently, I draw extensively from canon book-lore for all my portrayals. rule vi.  This blog will contain age-gap relationships and canon/genre-relative mentions of incest. This blog is multi-ship and chemistry-based unless specified otherwise; see affiliates.

 rule vii.  Though this is a heavily canon character blog, in some cases unnamed book characters have been given names by me. This is usually in the instance of a character having unnamed parent/s, sibling/s, or other relevant immediate kin. In underdeveloped or original characters, I also may create NPCs to expand on my adaptation's narrative; a child, a ward, a sibling, a mentor, even animals such as dragons or falcons. for the current list, (including relevant creatures); see npcs. rule viii.  i have zero tolerance or time for OOC negativity, particularly viscerally worded hate posts, post baiting, ragebaiting, vagueposting, etc. all traditional RP/RPC etiquette standards, and common sense, apply. I do like to, and will curate my dash and roleplaying experience to my comfort.
     I will unfollow / not follow back / softblock if you:
     - Repeatedly don't cut your posts on the dash
     - Use the follow/unfollow button as a spam feature
     - Are not using any tagging system
     - Repeatedly reblog asks as threads.
     - vagueposting; bringing personal vendettas to the dash.
     - mislead, bully, misrepresent, lie, steal, or plagiarize. rule ix.  USFW/T threads are hosted on a side blog @sigilsins, please note that non-mutuals will cop an immediate ban-hammer if they interact with this sideblog. there is no content tagging nor readmores on this blog, as the just latter irk me. rule x.  The fandom genre is considered mature, and this blog will openly include, feature, and likely depict elements of potentially triggering content.      show ratings: TV-MA & R-18.
below are some of the more prevalent themes that will be written mentioned on this blog. consult: HBO show warnings an extensive list of content warnings.

❝ I swear to you, I was never so alive as when I was winning this throne, or so dead as now that I've won it. ❞

 about  the seventeenth ruler of the Seven Kingdoms and the first king of the Baratheon dynasty. Robert, a great warrior and charismatic man in his youth, took the throne through conquest in the war known as Robert's Rebellion, which began when the Prince of Dragonstone, Rhaegar Targaryen, allegedly abducted Robert's betrothed, Lyanna Stark. After the war and following Lyanna's death, Robert married Cersei Lannister to cement an alliance with House Lannister to hold the kingdoms together.
 date of birth : 7th Day, 5th Moon, 262 AC.                              kings: aerys II, himself

  formal title   Robert Baratheon the First of His Name, King of the Andals, the Rhoynar, and the First Men, Lord of the Seven Kingdoms and Protector of the Realm of Westeros, and the head of House Baratheon of King's Landing.

hatred of house targaryen : as depicted, robert has a 'mad hatred' of the targaryens. this is particularly evident in his comment of "I see no babes, only dragonspawn" when presented with the dead bodies of the children of rhaegar and elia martell; Princess Rhaenys and Prince Aegon.    he, at the time, was clouded by rage and later, privately, robert would struggle deeply with his reaction and praise of the slaughter of the children. it had never been in him to wish the death of innocents. the images of the bodies of the children would haunt him for several years.      introspection has never been his strong suit, but robert — in some ways — suffers from self hatred. the idea of his couain rhaegar, the picture of targaryen royalty, sweeping lyanna away from him, caused great turmoil in him and seeded the root of the visceral hatred that claims him.

portrayal age : my robert spans the general rebellion and his very early years as king, i am not portraying robert in the game of thrones era.

canon divergencies : alcohol abuse. — whilst he will use alcohol as a coping mechanism, my robert depiction is that he does not start heavily drinking / becoming drunkenly abusive until later in his reign.

 v: hand of the king, lord of rivers 
After leading the revolt of the Riverlands, Edmyn has been named Lord Paramount of The Trident by King Aegon The Conqueror. He is desperately, but quietly, searching to create a family, having lost far too many in the recent years, and having no kin at his side. However, The Riverlands is in need of deep healing after the destructive greed of Black Harren, and Edmyn knows he has a large task ahead of him to restore peace in his region. in later years, he relocates to the aegonfort as the hand of the king, before retiring from the office two years after this, as the riverlands had more need of him than the realm.

 v: widower of riverrun 
Edmyn remains in good favour and a friend to King Aegon I Targaryen, despite stepping down as his Hand. Edmyn has returned to riverrun to tend to his family and raise his daughters, now a widower with three young girls, including a newborn infant. Going forward he will be looking for a new bride, particularly because his daughters are young and need a mother and to ensure that House Tully has a male heir, fearing some sort of revenge for his leading of the uprising against the late King Harren the Black and his line.

 v: king in the north 
With some urging from Sansa to rally the Northern Houses still loyal to the Starks, Jon, aided by the Wildlings, resolves to reclaim Winterfell. The battle ultimately leads to the extinction of the House by the execution of Ramsay Bolton by Sansa; restoring House Stark's hold on Winterfell and dominion over the North.    Later, debates what to do next lead to cries for Jon to lead them; all of the gathered lords of the North and the Vale draw and raise their swords and hail Jon as the new King in the North. Jon calls the Northern lords to council, and informs them the discovery of dragonglass, and Daenerys's invitation to treat, telling them that he has decided to accept. Whilst absent from Winterfell, Jon names Sansa as regent.

He has yet to make a decision on whether to enter the North in the war between the Lannister and Targaryen Queens, and knows that his region does not intend to renounce what they fought so hard to reclaim, nor does he intend to place a ruler over the Free Folk; but also knowing that in remaining neutral it will be perceived as rebellion by Daenerys.

Jon was one of the slaves purchased by the sellsword Quenton Qoherys. he was slated to be sent to the fighting pits, and had no training at the time, he entered the House of Quiet as a slave, but was met with a different reality. The House itself functioned like combat school, and at least two dozen other men residing there. offered two choices: he was to train, & from then on, he could repay the cost of his buying price, and purchase any of the armour and weapons he wished to take with him; walk free with a skillset to life a life outside of slavery. The option Jon, and most others elected, was to stay on, be branded with the mark of the Brotherhood, a free men in The Quiet Lament. this au linked with quenton, orys & theo

 v: the twice-flint, red wedding widow 
specifically set after the events of the red wedding, where her new husband & lord-heir robin flint was slain. torgha was thereafter named lady-heir of widows watch by her ruling mother-in-law lyessa flint, preserving the arrangement between the oldest flints of the mountains, and the most powerful flints of widows watch. torgha now places herself firmly against house frey, house bolton, and king joffrey baratheon — she, alongside her paternal house flint of the mountains, and her married house flint of widows watch, are amongst the banner houses who do not acquiesce to house bolton's claim to winterfell.
     — this is set during the war of five kings.

 v: torgha of the first flints  as the Flints of the mountains are the same as House Flint of Breakstone Hill, there is a strange ancient history between themselves and house stark. The First flints ruled as First Men kings after the Long Night until being reduced to vassalage by the Kings of Winter, House Stark of Winterfell. since that time they have retained their old ways; their house closer to that of a clan, and devout in their worship of the old gods of the forest.    torgha's father has been approached for a match with the next clan chief's daughter — even some outside of the north, something she is personally against in a marriage. torgha wishes to journey into lands close to (or even beyond) the wall, and has been exploring closer each time she ventures out on her own.

  dance au: a servant in the keep 
a bastard of the westerlands who, a child, worked in the kitchens of casterly rock. at fifteen she became involved with a lannister knight; drunk on promises of love and marriage she became intimate with him, only for him to wed another. when his 'love' turned to outright abuse at her refusal to become his mistress, a kindly trader who had witnessed her bruises offered her a place on his vegetable cart — bound for the red keep. the last time the knight assaulted her she slipped milk of the poppy into his wine and, when he was unconscious, stole his coins to pay the trader. they departed that morning, as dawn broke, and tyla never saw him again.    recently her prospects have advanced as she has been removed from the kitchens of the red keep and raised to a serving maid.

 au: tyla the translator 
to be elaborated on, an alternative verse where she has rare aptitude for languages, both current and ancient, westerosi and beyond. around her 10th birthday, after being observed by the maester, she was taken from her (uninterested) servant mother by representatives of the citadel to serve lords, nobles, and even royals.     her upbringing has left her quite isolated, with her perceived value being only that she is adept in languages. being that she is of low birth she is not seen as valuable as a person: more that she is a living 'book', an invisible, non-entity with useful skills.     this has lead her to the coping mechanism of finding her worth in sex, intimacy and the idea that being 'desired' is the same as being loved.
