emir martell. ( ekin koc ) - prince of dorne.

🜲 ⸻ · 。… [ ekin koc / 29 / cis man / he / him ] in the conflict between lions and men, emir martell begins their first steps up the ladder in the game of thrones. known to be confident and intelligent, their rumored judgemental and disloyal tendencies might prove to be their unmaking. the court bards play upon themes of fine cloth woven with gold silks, bitten fingernails and raw skin, a sharp tongue when composing a tune for them. while they are the prince martell of dorne, it is said that their loyalties lie with house targaryen & themselves. only time will tell if the tides shift favorably for them or if the climb is too hazardous for even the most sure - footed.

as the youngest of the martell siblings, emir didn't always feel the pressures of politics, alliances and connections that the rest of his family once did, but he always held himself in high regard. with an eagerness to prove his importance, emir was quick to become attached to the more materialistic aspects of his life as the younger martell - always ensuring he looked his finest whether it be around guests of family.

while he recognises his houses loyalties towards the targeryns, he remains loyal to himself and his own desires. easily swayed by money, gold, good company or bribes that work in his favour, emir is one to look out for and should never be entirely trusted - perhaps even his family may think him untrustworthy. if he wants something he will find a way to get it, crossing anyone in his path to get there.

he indulges in the pleasures of both men and women but is yet to have any desire to settle down even if it may eventually be expected of him - but that's not to say it's Impossible. he's quick to judge and sometimes holds a certain arrogance about him.

wanted connections -

best friend, lovers, forbidden flings, those he's done deals with / bribes, several enemies.

hi everyone ! i'm m / meredith. i'm twenty-three and from the est timezone, specifically in the united states, and more specifically in the wonderful state of new jersey, which i do bring up frequently. i'm a game of thrones abandoner planning on finally finishing the show in 2024 who has barely just begun to read asoiaf, but i am watching every episode of hotd with bated breath, so please bear with me as we go on a journey of expanding my knowledge together 🙏🙏🙏 so please, feel free to correct me at every and any turn

as for arwyn, i've included a read more below !

  extremely devout, and a bit zealous about following the faith. prays frequently to the seven, especially the mother, and is never without some form of seven pointed star in her jewelry, particarly necklaces. really enjoys singing hymns and has a nice voice, also has been known to carry crystals with her when she can.

similarly, she's not really excited about the idea of marriage, and has always harbored a curiosity about becoming a septa. but she also feels a strong sense of duty to her house. 

enjoys nature. also, a bit of a waterbug, puts the river in riverlands. she's a strong swimmer, really likes the rain. also has a soft spot for animals, and spent a lot of time walking around riverrun's godswood. 

can be in the bit of a stick in the mud. she has an anxious disposition and cares a lot about rule following and doing whats right, both in the sense of social graces, the faith, and her gut feelings. she has a strong moral code and won't easily be swayed to rid herself of it.

tw mental illness /  suffers from visions she believes to be sent to her by the god of seven. they in fact are not, but are religious delusions. often happy, but can very easily fall into deep fits of depression. she can definitely veer into paranoia with her anxiety, especially if coupled with a "vision" she believes to have been sent to her. she's smart, coherent and completely with it most of the time, but often gets extremely frazzled and scattered after seeing something. usually she copes with this via prayer. 

tw mental illness (cont.) / tends to keep her visions to herself, but often will confide in people the anxieties they cause her, offering them instead as her own ideas or more commonly, revelation through prayer. excuses any physical symptoms on headaches she has had since she was a girl.

generally kindhearted and friendly, though not someone without a spine. she has a stubborn streak, and while she could more be easily be manipulated and played by the game than many others, is not unintelligent. she is a quick reader, and has many prayers and hymns memorized.

has very repressed homosexual desires. very repressed.

a pacifist, and abhors the idea of war or any violence.

will often mumble to herself or speak under her breath. often gets lost in thought.

very easily embarrassed and flustered. doesn't do well with compliments, advances, flirting, anything. though generally friendly, can be a little shy when she's overwhelmed. capable of making conversation with just about anybody though, or at least she'll try to be polite. 

makes the most beautiful needlework in all of the riverlands, its true. her fingers are often pricked raw from needles and pulling on the string, and she can sit and do needlepoint for hours and hours while lost in thought. 

i'll continue to add to this as i plot and work out dynamics and everything, but hopefully this is enough info to get things going!!

iii ⸻ biography

she was the youngest of six targaryens , always the baby of the family in her siblings eyes. it's why there was never much of a thought in her mind about the line of succession. her brother had already started having children by the time she was twelve and thus , she knew that her role in this family would never be seeking the throne , but serving it.

she cemented her reputation early in life. she would go to the sept to pray and then hand out silver coins to the poor on her way out. never gold , of course , for that was far too good for peasants. she would read at the orphanages , a child in her lap and a smile on her face. but sylvia also had bite to her , uncompromising when it came to getting what she wanted. she was selfish and destructive , once having lit a girl's entire bedroom on fire because she'd dared to wear a dress of the same fabric as sylvia. she was a lannister through and through , a fucking lioness.

needless to say , she was both widely loved and widely hated depending on who you talked to. this woman was always out here either putting out fires or starting them , there's no in-between.

she got into a lick of trouble when she was seventeen with another lord. in her defence , she thought that she was in love with him when she slept with him and the last thing she expected to happen was a pregnancy. her family helped her cover it up , sent her away from court to carry out the pregnancy. she placed the child in the care of one of her ladies so that she could still be close to them , distraught by the fact that her father wouldn't allow her to claim them.

marriage was chosen for her when she was twenty-five , but not before she'd had plenty of fun within the realm. she left a few broken hearts in her wake , and someone even managed to break hers once.

luckily for her , her marriage was a blessing in disguise. she fell for him completely , moving him to the top of the list of people she would kill for. their marriage was blessed that same year with a child , and sylvia learned she was highly fertile when they kept coming one after the next.

she loves her children more than anything , each of them drawing out the maternal side of her. she also began practically adopting strays in the castle , people who might need a mother figure in their lives .

given her eldest brother practically raised her in place of her father , they remained close through the entirety of their lives and thus , sylvia remained in the capital to ensure that his reign continued smoothly. she sat in on meetings , listened to the small council drone on and on , would go from region to region as her brother's voice when he needed her to.

when the previous hand of the king passed away five years ago , she was unsurprised when her brother asked her to take on the role. she had always had a good head for politics , and when it came to her family , she considered herself their fiercest protector.

her marriage suffered for it , as did the amount of time she got to spend with her children. she drinks more than she used to and with their mines running dry , her stress levels are higher than ever despite her acting as though she hadn't a care in the world.

iv ⸻ tidbits

she has a pet lion that she keeps down in the old dragon pits. it's name is leo and he is her bestest boy. she also feeds the stray cats around the keep.

hopeless with swords , but she's quite good at archery and carries a knife around either on her thigh or at her waist at all times. does she know how to use it effectively ? no , but that won't stop her from stabbing when she needs to !

she told her bastard child who they really were to her once they turned eighteen. aside from her husband and her brother , no one knows who they really are.

the pettiest mf on the god damn planet , will hold a grudge for her entire life over the dumbest shit so rip to whoever pisses her off.

a brief biography of the lady daella arryn

author notes that lady daella has been a controversial figure as of late amongst maesters due to her rather ‘revolutionary’ and ‘strange’ views regarding education and requirements for one to become a maester, as well as many other beliefs regarding the body and health

lady daella was born in the year 378ac to ronnal arryn, lord of the eyrie, defender of the vale and warden of the east, and lady ursula arryn of house royce. her name came from a distant targaryen ancestor princess daella targaryen who had been married to lord rodrik arryn, whose descendants led to princess daenerys targaryen who married the great grandfather of daella arryn ‘sweet-robin’ arryn. daella arryn’s childhood was rather unusual for a daughter of a great house, she was fostered away from the eyrie, which house fostered her is a piece of information lost to time. it is believed that daella’s fascination with the human body and eventually other sciences came from her childhood due to her brother’s illness. letters that have been found from that time between the two denote a close friendship between the two, truthfully lady daella seemed to have good relationships with all of her siblings. lady daella had had access to the best education money could buy, and was able to learn subjects that are typically reserved for young lords and not ladies. notably lady daella had had four unsuccessful betrothals, a series of factors played into each failure. from her reported ‘strangeness’ to a tragic incident included a horse and a rather expensive bottle of red wine. reportedly before her father’s passing there had been discussions of her becoming a septa but that plan never came to fruition.  *here the entry stops there is still so much more to fill*

biography & wcs below. ----> tw: sickness, death mention, parental loss.

NAME. elras qorgyle. TITLE. ruling lord of qorgyle. ( dorn ) AGE. thirty - five. RELATIONSHIP STATUS. single. SEXUAL ORITENTATION. hetrosexual.

elras was raised in greenblood until he was a teen when his life changed for the better. at ten his father abandoned him and his mother. at twelve he lost his mother to a sickness that to this days he feels guilt for not being able to cure with his own bare hands. the two years that followed were not kind to him, alone in the world elras learnt to survive alone, he built a tough facade and refused to cry over his circumstances - on the occasion he allowed it it was because he missed his mother.

but when he neared his fourteenth birthday he was certain someone was smiling down on him. somebody found him wandering alone and took him to sandstone. it was there he was approached and taken in as a servant of sorts to the house of qorgyle. happy to finally have a home and shelter, elras enjoyed catering to the qorgyle's, they treated him well and in time they became family to him.

they too felt the same about the boy and soon took him into their family along with those that he now considers to be his siblings.

despite this, elras still finds himself thinking about his father and where he might be. now he has power he seeks to have revenge on him one day.

life alone hardened elras. once a calm gently boy, the lord has now become hardened with a tough facade. he is cold to many and it takes time for him to lower his walls to let aloner in. but once in he has unwavering loyalty.

now he is the ruling lord of qorgyle, elras wants nothing but the best for his family. while they are not blood, they are family by heart. elras adores his siblings and like most they often fight but his love for them knows no bounds and he will stop at nothing to protect them.

wanted connections -

flings - elras probably has a list. crush - somebody elra has a crush on and probably shouldn't. ( political maybe or something else ) best friend - someone from childhood or when he first came to sandstone. right hand - advisor / the person he always looks to for advice.

-With violet eyes and a streak of pure Targaryen silver in her dark curls, there is no mistaking who Aelora is and her heritage. She wears both as a badge of pride; though she grew up a princess in Lys with all the privileges afforded, she longed for a home she did not know. King's Landing should have been where she grew up, within the walls of Maegor's Holdfast. Instead, she felt exiled, spurned by the people her family should rule.

-Her obsession witth both her family history and that of old, doomed Valyria only grew as she matured into a young woman, and then into an adult. Her headstrong nature revealed itself too often for comfort, though a quick tongue extracted her from many situations. Yet she could not help but be jealous of those that were at home on Dragonstone, of those that had taken her family home as their own. Were those not Targaryen dragon skulls in the crypts of King's Landing? Was that keep not built by Aegon the Conqueror?

-When the two sides of the family finally united, she was eager to meet them, and even more eager to see if together, the Targaryens could hatch and ride dragons again. It is not enough merely to be Targaryens- they must conquer again, to feed the fire in their blood.

full name : alannys harlaw .

title : lady alannys harlaw of ten towers  .

nicknames : lady reaper .

gender : cis female .

pronouns : she / her .

age : twenty and eight

place of birth : ten towers  , harlaw isle.

current location : king's landing , the crownlands .

nationality : ironborn .

𝐀𝐏𝐏𝐄𝐀𝐑𝐀𝐍𝐂𝐄 .

born the second daughter to house harlaw, alannys beauty was something that was often spoken of, much to her chagrin. you didn't hear men touting about their beauty-- less they were the silly, weak men of the crownlands. alannys wanted to be known for -- if not her fierceness in battle like her sister then her strategic and military mind. her looks allowed many to believe she was unassuming- a silly woman who only cared about marriage and babies. she was not a silly woman. something that is quickly learned if you spend any time talking to her. her words coming off cold and her nature that of indifference. for if you have roses in the reach, and golden suns in the south, then she was a siren- tempting but deadly.

𝐏𝐄𝐑𝐒𝐎𝐍𝐀𝐋𝐈𝐓𝐘.

alannys harlaw is an ironborn woman of the finest caliber: courageous, clever, determined, and proud. in sharp contrast to the allusions people have about her on the basis that she is a woman, alannys is extremely headstrong and formidable towards anybody who dares cross her, as well as possessing a sharp, cynical, and sarcastic sense of humor. she was born pretty but she doesn't rely on her looks to get what shes after. on the contrary. her wit is what she values above any other trait she might possess.

born on harlaw, the second eldest of three siblings. alannys wanted to prove to her father what value she added to the family. and not just the value that was between her legs. used to be bartered off to another family to create heirs. no- she knows her worth and value beyond that of being a mare for some spoiled rich bastard who didn't know a day's work in his life. she is extremely well-read. the best sailor, and fighter , both on land and sea. she developed her mind and uses it in the aid of strategical and tactical battles for her father over the years. she cares little of finery. often opting for the black and silver that is associated with her house. little frill is needed. and when she has to wear a dress she will but more often than not, trousers are far more practical than the long skirts she is made to wear. the lady reaper, is formidable. a dark cloud that hangs over any that dare cross her. but there are times when she can be quite charming - mostly at her eldest sister's request. she values her independence above all, but isn't that the ironborn way. they were not meant to live on land but rather to face the open seas head-on. to meet their drowned god either in this life or the next.

alannys has no desire to get married, though she knows that it is up to her sister, she would rather die alone than be forced to live anywhere other than the iron islands.

she has a love of winged creatures and quite a collection. her favorites however was a gift on her name day a few years back -- a white spotted owl she named Lightning as well as Taima her sea hawk. both birds go with her wherever she is and tend to be just as prickly as their lady.

does not believe in love, it is the reason why she doesn't wish to be bartered off in a betrothal. love outside of the iron islands seems fickle- done out of necessity rather than a desire to actually be with someone. love on the mainland is nothing she desires. she would rather die an old spinster than ever settle for less than she deserves.

she enjoys the company of her cousins the starks a great deal, they are by far more tolerable than any other mainlanders. on the whole, those men and women of the north alannys have taken a liking too for several reasons. mostly because both northerners and Ironborn had to brave the hardest of conditions. they are made to be strong and it is that strength she values.

has recently returned from a few months' tour of the free cities, where she captained one of their ships to and from. she loves being at sea more than anything and wishes she didn't have to come back for whatever was happening in kingslanding. she has no interest in it.

𝐖𝐀𝐍𝐓𝐄𝐃 𝐂𝐎𝐍𝐍𝐄𝐂𝐓𝐈𝐎𝐍�� .

former crew of the reaper- could be lieges, ladies or lords of the iron islands or the north that booked passage onto the ship on its way to the free cities for trade and such. or could have been working with alannys as they sailed the waters for a time. its probably the only time you've seen lady reaper actually smile with joy.

birds of a feather- she does not make friends easily. in truth she doesn't have friends at all if you ask her. but there are people that she considers herself to be friendly with. courageous and just as clever as she is. Alanna likes to surround herself with people of substance.

flirtations - she might not want to be married. but she has needs just like any other person. as abrasive as she might appear to be especially for a lady doesn't stop her from approaching those she might have a infinity towards. she doesn't care for a person's looks so much, its more about their strength of will. that is her aphrodisiac- soft and frilly individuals need not seek her out. she will never be interested.

and the usual, exes, lovers, rivals enemies. i will take all of the drama!!!

𝐁𝐈𝐎𝐆𝐑𝐀𝐏𝐇𝐘 .    🕯️

there  was  a  tourney  held  the  day  the  newest  little  lion  of  the  rock  was  born .  they  say  a  man  died ,  pierced  through  the  throat  by  a  shard  of  broken  lance ,  and  lord  lancel  drank  and  cheered  and  proclaimed  to  all  who’d  listen  that  he’d  have  a  son  by  sunset .  inside  the  rock  itself ,  while  his  mother  shrieked  and  labored ,  the  son  was  born .  quiet ,  even  with  his  first  breaths .  the  septas  worried  at  first  that  he  wasn’t  breathing .  they  patted ,  pinched ,  and  pricked  the  soles  of  his  feet  with  needles  and  recieved  no  more  than  faint  whimpers  and  little  jerks  in  response   ---   until  a  slap   from  the  maester  set  him  screaming .  his  little  cheek  was  still  pink  with  the  handprint  when  they  nestled  him  into  his  wet  nurse’s  chest .

a  spot  was  worn  down  in  the  rug  on  the  floor  of  lancel  lannister’s  office ,  where  the  man  paced  and  fumed .  as  though  he  could  outrun  his  worries  right  there ,  in  a  straight  line .  criston  remembers  staring  at  it ,  sitting  on  his  hands  and  swinging  his  feet  off  the  edge  of  his  chair ,  even  at  ten  thinking  how  foolish  it  was  …  to  walk  and  worry ,  while  the  cousins  his  father  so  greatly  admired  spent  money  they  did  not  have .  a  lannister  always  pays  his  debts ,  they  told  him ,  but  no  debts  got  paid  while  his  father  paced  and  let  the  lannisters  on  the  throne  spend  as  they  pleased .

fathers  should  love  their  sons .  lancel  did  not  love  criston .  criston  poured  it  into  the  world  like  the  lack  of  it  was  an  artery  that  had  been  cut  ---  bleeding  it  onto  his  siblings ,  onto  the  endless  parade  of  girls  who  maybe  hoped  to  be  his  wife .  somehow  the  puddle  of  all  that  love  he  bled  never  quite  made  it  to  the  crownlands .

they  dumped  the  weight  of  all  the  gold  they  did  not  have  upon  his  shoulders  the  day  he  became  a  man .  someone  lesser  might  have  drowned  beneath  that  weight .  someone  lesser  might  have  shouldered  it  off  onto  a  sibling .  criston  did  neither .

the  year  lancel  lannister  died ,  criston  did  not  hold  a  tourney  in  his  memory .  he  could  not  afford  it .

he  could  count  on  one  hand  the  times  he  had  been  told  no  by  someone ,  before  his  queen  of  love  and  beauty  tossed  her  crown  of  flowers  beneath  the  hooves  of  his  horse .  trampled ,  like  the  heartsblood  of  the  man  who  died  on  his  nameday .  it  was  a  little  like  dying ,  too ,  to  put  his  hands  on  her  waist  and  feel  her  teeth  sink  into  his  lip  and  forget  every  preening  lady  who  had  ever  come  before  her .

he  could  tell  you  the  day  he  realized  his  heart  belonged  to  her .  he  could  tell  you  how  it  felt  like  one  of  the  lions  beneath  the  rock  was  ripping  through  his  ribs  to  that  very  same  heart ,  the  day  she  lost  his  son .  he  could  not  tell  you  how  many  of  his  secrets  she  sent  to  dorne .

for  years  he  planned  ways  to  keep  his  family’s  debts  from  crushing  them  all .  but  on  the  day  he  recieved  the  invitation  to the spring celebrations from  his  cousin  on  the  throne ,  he  decided  …  he  would  let  the  weight  of  that  debt  fall  upon  the  king’s  head ,  in  order to   pay  it  for  the  lannisters  of  casterly  rock.

howdy, everyone! i'm back with character numero two, so please take this opportunity to read under the cut a bit more about the lovely lord edwyle!

the kind of guy who really believes in something, yk? very passionate, a little too passionate about the brotherhood. has a real disgust for most lords (ignore the hypocrisy, tyvm) and thinks it's disgusting how the smallfolk suffer because of things they have 0 say in! 

very protective of people, and believes firmly (duh) in vigilante justice. once you've got him, you've got him for life. he does not take betrayal lightly... but it takes a lot for you to get past his surface and earn that trust. you may think you have it before you actually do.

a bit of a manwhore, it runs in the family. has a few bastards running around, but not that many, okay, so don't judge him! 

bleeds north, tyvm. isn't too fussed about the old gods, truly, but will defend them with his life against the faith and its followers. sorry, arwyn, be glad i can never make you two interact.

his mouth goes ahead of his head sometimes, and so do his fists   —   frequently reprimanded by higher ups in the brotherhood for being a bit of a loudmouth, a little too violent, etc. very gung-ho about the cause, and feels EVERYTHING strongly. 

fliratious and generally friendly and personable, but can be moody and get gruff quickly if you accidentally (or purposefully) offend him. buy him a drink and you guys can call it even, okay? because otherwise he might get into a brawl. buy him too many drinks, and you also might get into a brawl with him. 

needs a serious lesson in responsibility. is frequently flippant about serious matters, is remarkably disrespectful, and is definitely gonna get himself killed one day. laughs at his brother for all the pressure on his shoulders, so, that shows you how much he cares about duty to his house. loves his family, though, and misses the dead one. and loves the north. he's a complicated man, okay? (the complication being: does not want to be ruling lord ever and is a little shit)

is planning on living, laughing, loving it up in king's landing while keeping an ear out for any valable intel for the brotherhood. they need to keep things friendly and peaceful for the smallfolk (he says, as he eats and parties lavishly as a lord while the smallfolk are swept away. that darn hypocrisy again!) and then he can go and bitch and moan about how awful it was. 

tl;dr how fake revolutionaries look when a real one comes at them but both people in question are edwyle.

biography & wcs below. ---->

NAME. timon lannister. TITLE. lord timon lannister. ( house lannister. ) AGE. thirty - two. RELATIONSHIP STATUS. single. SEXUAL ORITENTATION. bisexual.

timon grew up a quiet child, shyer than most and slower when it came to his duties as a lord. it took him far longer to learn to read and writer, especially when he preferred to spend his time with a wooden sword in hand until he was old enough to wield a real one. over the years he's become quite the fighter, body littered in many scars from both training and fights.

he is fiercely loyal to his family but remains good natured to all those around him unless he has little reason to be. in the company of another house he doesn't find it easy to start a conversation - he often only speaks when spoken to.

he's had notoriously bad luck with love. he often falls for the long person and when he falls he falls hard. love it maybe the one thing that could encourage him to distance himself from his family and his loyalty to them. he's a romantic deep down with a deep desire to find his one love and start a family of his own.

timon hates politics but will engage with it when necessary. he'd prefer to keep his head down in such situations but he's a logical thinker, he often underestimates his own mind.

while he understands his family have made mistakes in the past he believes his eldest brother will be different and wont make the same mistakes. if allowed he will advice as much as he can.

timon has grown unhappy over time and wishes to find peaceful for himself whatever way that comes.
