If I'm reading this spell correctly, it can cause Truth Detecting spells to output answers other than Truth or Lie.

Now to carry around a Clipboard of "Tree" to screw with people.

I mean, so long as they side with us I don't have a problem with the Tyrells. They haven't done a single thing to slight us thus far, and Mace was the only LP to voluntarily side with dear old dad.

That counts as a mark against him I think.

So my ASoF&I is rather rusty all told, so besides the dealings with fey, why exactly do we find the Tyrells to be crazy bastards?

...I almost don't want to ask.

What is the plan for getting them from the far Kings and queens?

Cause I think they might actually die if they give those up.

If we're talking about actual sympathetic need to wear the crowns to prevent death then it'll depend on the magic involved. Is it the unaltered item itself, the base material itself, or the representation of a crown that needs to be worn?

The second can have the crown be changed to a helmet or a hat, the third can have a crown that reads "Property of the Dragon Emperor" on it, and the first will depend on factirs like the definition of "unaltered" and whatnot.

Otherwise, we can just do a fiery snort at people who look at our governors funny.

The late Mace? @Crake, you're up.

Can you please add the below,? As MTB pointed out it may even prevent a Lich going from it's body to it's Phylactery.

Greater Sealed Life will act to negate any soul or life drain shenanigans, due to our lack of companions it's probably a bit expensive to case as an opening move but at the very least should be there as a contingency.

[\] If Lord Bartaris appears to be using soul/life draining magic or if Viserys is informed of the guests being drained by the ritual, cast Greater Sealed Life.
 
If it's fae then we're going to have a problem.

Fae creatures are, well to be blunt they're like stories in discworld. The parts of the story make the fae, without those parts they break.

If a King or Queen has based their existence to their Royalty (an easy thing to assume because most Fae are arrogant sons of bitches) then to submit to another's authority will reduce them in more ways than simply politically.

If Titania is not a queen then what is she? If Oberon serves how can he rule? If Mab is leashed how is she free?

Now if we simply don't care about the end result then this isn't a problem, hell some of them might even go for it. There's a reason a Fae was willing to shed his (or her) entire existence just for a chance to become Superior!Renly after all.

Some of them might relish the challenge of starting from the bottom again, climbing their way back to royalty. (Of course this might make them the most untrustworthy fuckers this side of a Decepticon's lawyer but we can play the roulette of trust with a shotgun hidden under the table so I'm sure we'll be fine.)
 
Honestly, it would be so much easier to redraw a few of the Westerosi borders with the Tyrells fighting against us.
If the Florents declare for us, I have half a mind of recreating the Cocklands to punish the Tyrells for their fence sitting in the rebellion.

It'd only do so until it runs out, no? It takes days to regrow its body,

It's not the prevention of resurrection, it's the retention of it's soul so we don't have to chase it down. That aside it should serve to stop any soul/life draining from the guests, protecting them and preventing us from having to go through a painful battle of attrition. Same is true for any draining effects it tries on us, we know it's theme, we should make that as difficult as possible to achieve.

I'm not following. If it's a lich, we have to chase down the phylactery anyway. It will leave after minutes.

I don't see how it's protection, a missing container sounds like it'd spill messily, not fail entirely.
 
Did you just make a deadpan Remove Kebab meme, but with the Tyrells as the evil Turks?
That's some next-level shit right there.

Actually that would be really cool. Tyrells as some sort of Orientalist Ottoman/Turskish rulers? Sounds like a sweet aesthetic for their castle.
The worldbuilding would make no sense though :'(
 
Reminder here that we have no idea how easy or hard it will be to find that phylactery. Remember that annoying search for Amrelaths?

My contempt for House Tyrell requires some next level memery in conveyance.
 
Is Yss free? The only way I see this working is if we trap the soul in the bones for a few minutes and then have him eat it.

But we can do it next round for our Spell Combat option.

A Lich's Phylactery is a soul vessel, if we have the soul (by preventing it from leaving the body) we don't need the vessel. In theory.

Different point entirely, the spell when cast on our enemy will have the following effects.

You seal the life force within the target, preventing it from sharing its vitality with others. Affected creatures can't transfer damage to or from another, such as through shield other, a spiritualist's life bond, or a summoner's life link. Effects such as vampiric touch that steal vitality from others deal damage normally, but provide no benefits.

This spell functions as sealed life, except it additionally provides the benefits of death ward and renders its targets immune to effects that extract or transfer its soul, such as possession and trap the soul. This spell prevents a soul from returning to its body if it has already departed, until the spell's duration expires.

This should protect the guests from soul drain effects and the transfer of HP dmg, it will protect them from being the target of possession as our enemy will be incapable of making the jump to one of the cursed.

We know this thing has a life and soul drain theme going on, we should kneecap that and this is a powerful tool to do so (thank you dice gods!).

Way back when we first entered the Orphne Court for the first time, there was a phrase we used that essentially translated to "I promise I won't burn your glade down".

Which implies dragons showing up to burn pesky fey courts out of their holes is a thing that does happen.

I won't stand for parallel states inside our domain.
Same here. If they insist on being independent kings, then they can do so. In the Feywild.

I get what it does, see the second post above yours.

Then I'm a bit confused why you won't put it in the vote as an if statement, are we assuming that if that information becomes clear we'd have a vote break? I'd rather it explicitly be something Viserys is keeping in mind, our first round is not guaranteed to go off as voted uninterrupted.
