So I could try to make an update in an hour or so, but it would probably come out sub-par. I think I'll do a few adventuring locals.

Only two locations so far. I'll do at lest two more in the riverlands
Harenhall
Description: Built by Harren the Black, along the Gods Eye as a monument to himself, intending it to be the greatest of all castles in Westeros and for it to dwarf any other, Harenhall was wrought through the toil and misery of thousands of captives who died in the quarries chained to sledges or laboring on the five huge towers. Men froze by winter and sweltered in summer. Weirwoods that had stood three thousand years were cut down to provide rafters and beams. It is said a curse lies upon those blood-mortared walls and and for once it seems history confirms the voice of superstition. Six Houses fallen by the most improbable misfortunes, their last heirs left alone in the dark amind the slow ruin of Haren's mad dream, one Brynden Rivers felt in his youth when magic was at it's nadir. What might it have become now?
Likely Foes: ???
CR: ???
Hagswood
Description: Found about a day's ride south of Pinkmaiden Keep this dreary stretch of woods was according to local legend the site of amass hanging of either and outlaw band or a peaceful village,depending on who is telling the story. Of late some of the darker denizens of the of the feywyld have been drawn there, by the lingering miasma of death and decay amid the stagnant waters, earning the woods a new name and far more travelers seeking it on secret midnight journeys. Many do not return and of those who do none are unchanged.
Likely Foes: Green and Anis Hags
CR: 8-9

You know, playing Viserys has completely ruined other dragon characters for me, as no one else matches up.
In these situations, why not make some world building vignettes?

Okay Harrenhall I see you. You look like a candidate for a big fucking tree right in the middle. If I had to guess I would say that a lot of undead live in Harrenhall. The undead storage project has a candidate to test on. If we research it that is.

Because I don't want to do narrative pieces when half asleep, I might mess something major up as opposed to say misremembering how many houses died in Harenhall (I didn't as far as I know, just an example)
Anyway good night guys, tomorrow we should be good to start the conclave

- being near locations is my passion.
I am going to derive great enjoyment in trying to conceptualise what the fuck a language based (meta)material might be. And what one based on the underlying Words Of Creation would do to it's surroundings.
"We tried to say something, and now everything in the area (and the area) has gone all... wobbly"
Like, an improbability-drive style effect.
"You're turning into a penguin. Stop it."
Edit: *thinks of simple solution, is disappoint*
*Thinks of emergent complexity, is excited again*

On the subject of the Imperial Dream(TM) as a reservoir of god power, how would you try to make it so that only the gods you want to access it can do so?
None of the Gods are primarily gods of the Imperium; they all originated in some other place and most of them have stable bases of worship outside of the Imperium.
If the idea is to instead make a conceptual god of the Imperium, what would it embody? Authoritarianism and blood magic?

Yss, once he gets Trade Doman, will have a lot of power in things that can be classified as "deals", according to DP.
Just set up an official "Pantheon" of ours, and have them all sign up over Yss.
Yss and Jazzirian don't, MK's worshippers are (now that we have gotten all Tritons on PoB) very few outside our Empire, and Meraxes/Storm God/Lady of Spears (once we reform the faith after we break the rest of Essos) are literally almost nonexistent.
Not really.If the idea is to instead make a conceptual god of the Imperium, what would it embody? Authoritarianism and blood magic?
Most likely the same things Viserys' Mythic path grants to those praying to him (and prayer-energy being re-routed to pseudo-deity "Imperial Dream" subsequently) - Progress, Protection, Law/Order, etc...?
...I'm not really sure what we settled on the last time the discussion was up.
I'm not in the mood to argue Domains again either.

Sorry, didn't know the domain thing was already discussed to death.
Didn't mean to offend.

Nah, no problem.
I'm just literally tired right now, so not quite up to searching what was discussed the last time, and the time before it
And without searching for that, discussing it all from beginning would be just weird :/

Though I am tempted to vote for TalonofAnathrax and seeing how the tally handles an infinite loop.

Let's see what happens...
EDIT: It appears that my dreams of an infinite feedback loop are for naught. The latest vote will override the prior one.

Well thats interesting. Not what I expected but it makes sense.
