While they look nifty, the range covers... 4 giants or so? Feels like a bad present for a few tribes worth of giants.
A 40 foot diameter area is actually pretty decent bit of space. Planetosi giants are only 10 to 14 feet tall, so way more than four could comfortably fit within the banner's effect. No biggy, though, just thought it would make a neat gift.

I do wonder if the Others are sufficiently angery at is as to try and attack again, simple because we are nearby.

If the assumption that OGs get a return move to any theirs (and I doubt they got one to the attack on Thenns, we very clearly provoked Others there), this will be an insult to an injury.

We gotta grab Rina's "not!Eidolon" soon-ish if the above is the case tho :/

We also have a few delves in "Beyond the Wall"-area that I'm not sure are worth clearing out anymore...
[] Enter Deadwood Vale: Some ancient blight lingers over this rocky vale between barren peaks, that no weirwood tree will grow within ten leagues of it. Even the beasts here are uncannily hateful to men and will attack not out of hunger but malice... or perhaps the need to keep some deeper evil from being awoken.

Hey, @Duesal, any chance we could agree that we should hand over the remains of that Other Waymar kled to the Djinn Researchers?
Quite again, they are actively looking into the nature of Winter/Void!forged Fey and Animals, and little signifies that batter than a genuine Other... well, his body in this case.

And-
*Screeches to a halt*
... @DragonParadox, will Rina be a viable user for the Heart of Ice if we give her White Dragon Graft(s)?

I'm against grafts. They tend to not be worth it. At least when it comes to Companions.

Honestly, I just think of this in terms of "how do we get reliable access to Heart of Ice for the sacking of City of Brass, without risking Tiamat/Other-corruption in whoever we'd make for the task".
We could simple cut away the grafts afterwards, after all...

Another possibility though, is @DragonParadox stating whether will Rina be naturally able to wield it once she becomes Winter!Fey in a bit.
Not quite the White Dragon-ancestry, bit maybe a close enough approach from a different enough angle to be safe..?
 
Why not fleshcraft a control interface then?

And wasn't the plan to fire the thing into the palace like a cold-nuke anyway?

Maybe, depending on how those interact with her own transition into a few though it would also involve convincing her to get grafts.

Again, posibile. You guys have not seen the final transformatyion IC so there is nothing but speculation available in that regard.

Anyway, vote closed. Let's meet the giants.

It sure was, but that "1/day Fimbulwinter that leads to the place Others are at" seems pretty dangerous to whoever tries using it- and outright screaming "CORRUPTIVE" to an Ice-user, who'd get a lot of benefits out of the Heart beside the Fimbshit otherwise.

What's yer idea on the "control unit"?

Just encase it into a layer of unthinking flesh that activates the thing when given the proper mental command.

Unless you want me to design some kind of unique creature to serve as a vessel, but that would be predicated on proper failsafes to avoid corruption.

What else does the Heart do, exactly? I still can't find the actual stats.

Some kind of ice dragon-mecha.
 
Speaking of Giant Kaiju monsters we should probably get the Old Gods one. With the condition that it Kaijus away from Westeros for the time being. Wouldn't want a rendition of Godzilla to hit Oldtown...even if it has a good chance of wiping out the Citadel.

Edit: Also let's avoid making this one undead. We are already pushing it as it is.

Bonus points for making it the new seat of the Greenseers. :p

This was about utilizing the ice heart in a way that makes sure any leaking Other influences are dealt with.

If you just want a little something for the Old Gods...
