Have you considered my proposal? Disguise as Corbrays, infiltrate the prison and kill the prisoners, leave someone alive that can identify us as Lyn, surely Richard is good enough to stab someone in an incapacitating, but not lethal place?
At the same time, or a day before, kidnap Lyn and put an agenda on him, to make him incriminate himself as much as possible.

I was under the impression that these were more informal titles, rather than our 'official' name, where courtiers get to rattle out shit for a solid twenty plus seconds.
Also, what do you think would be a good quote for Viserys?
How about "Everything burns."

They're official names to the people that matter. Lord of Fire and Air is how we officially introduced ourselves to the Shaitan and the Djinn. And the Dothraki all know us as the Dragon Khal.
Also, what does Viserys need a quote for?

That would require Corbray men to be near Gulltown and doesn't address the issue that we kinda need to either flip or kill Grafton as per our deal with the Old Gods.
Give me a moment. I have a rather involved amount of mummery that might just get us to convert him.

@LonelyWolf999, if you are not sure about the syntax for the TVTropes markup, just pick a page that has the feature that you need, click on edit and copy-paste the relevant section before adjusting it.

We might be able to have Alyssa Grafton's bastard son take over. That humiliation should appease the Old Gods. If it doesn't, eh. We'll come up with something else.

@Duesal @Crake @DragonParadox Here is everything that was crafted this month, or that has been newly assigned to characters, which needs to be added to their character sheets.
@Azel I know you've probably told me a dozen times already, but some stuff I just can't seem to remember. The four Whispering Braziers we crafted this month, where are they being assigned?

I think it would be better if you write that down in the crafting list in the future, since you seem to have a very specific amnesia issue on that.
They are for ACSEC offices and the governments of Tolos and Mantarys.

... Am I the only one who finds 'Imperator' kind of dumb? It's literally just emperor in Latin. Now, I'm all for making our empire an expy of the 40K one because it's goddamn awesome (Inquisition, Scholarium, I'm half expecting us to start pumping out supersoldiers in heavy magitech armor) but I feel like at this point we're just being dishonest. I justify of all the latin words that we're using 'in character' by viewing it as essentially similar to the reason we actually use latin words in real life: we're taking a Valaryian term and using it as the name in order to make it sound cooler. I get that we're trying to avoid the negative connotation that 'emperor' has due to that one dragon rider who got himself and 30,000 people killed right after the Doom, but it's just too much of a stretch and sounds weird. A bunch of other people seem to think it's fine, so it my just be my personal preference, but regardless I'd like to officially vote for just calling ourselves 'Emperor of Westeros and Valaryia'.
Thanks. I was trying to work on the character pages and got tripped up on all the folders.

I really like Imperator. Besides, Emperor has some pretty hefty negative connotations in Westeros thanks to that moron Aurion of Qohor who died trying to reclaim Valyria.

Those will be informal titles indeed. We should be formally known as:
Viserys Targaryen the Third of his Name, also known as Viserys the Sorcerer.
Who else is the Sorcerer in Sorcerer's Deep referring to?

Nope. They care if we personally break their strictures. We're not under guest right, and we're not kin to Corbray, so pretty much anything we do to him and/or make him do is fair game.

Added him to the list I just posted and deducted the items from our dwindling stockpile.

What weapon do we want to give him, btw? Given that these are serpentfolk stats.
Abilities|Str 10, Dex 18, Con 12, Int 14, Wis 10, Cha 15
Not the strongest, but pretty freaking dexterous.

Depends on what he is proficient in, or if the Serpentfolk have preferred weapons.

I get that. As I said, my objection to the title is basically that it doesn't make sense IC and that I don't like how it sounds. It's essentially a difference in opinion and I'm fine if people want to stick with it. As for the connotation, I never got the impression that it was such a big deal, especially not in Westeros which would be largely removed from the Century of Blood and all its cultural trauma. In any case, I don't believe that it'll cause any issues - the people that hate us will continue to hate us, and the people that love us will continue to love us. For better or worse our way of holding Essos without having to go through the song and dance that we did in Tyrosh will be by appealing to the legacy of the Freehold, making all the magisters like the idea of being part of the Freehold reborn more than they hate the idea of bowing to some westerosi barbarian who wants them to give up their slaves.

That'll be kind of awkward seeing as we've been calling ourselves King for a while, instead of usurping control over a Senate.

I dunno. I've never seen any mention of it, beyond the rangers using bows. We'll probably have to ask.
*shrug*
I've just always thought it sounds a hell of a lot cooler than Emperor, just like Imperium sounds cooler than Empire. Besides, we've been using bastardized latin for a while now as a stand-in for Valyrian, so it's really not as OOC as you believe.
