Joffrey 2: The Prince of The Palace:
Do you take part in Maester Pycelle's Lessons:
-[X]Yes (Gain a chance to pick up a trait, or gain something new) Rolled: D100 => 51
Maester Pycelle was very happy that you had taken an interest in your studies for the realm, and quietly droned on about things that you already knew about.
When you tried to tell him about such matters, you were… reminded that your Grandfather knew everything about the West.
You needed to know everything about Westeros properly. And that meant… studying.
Reward: You study with MAester Pycelle, but do not learn, or do something that you don't already know.
He just says Practice, Makes perfect.
Lord's of the Small Council Updated.
Hand of the King: Lord/Honorary Nuncle Jon Arryn (You trust him with your life, and your father does as well)
Lord Commander of the Kingsguard: Barristan "The Bold" Selmy. (The Greatest Knight alive, save for Uncle Jaime, who still looks at you weirdly whenever you are both alone, and telling you the story on why he slayed the mad king..)
Master of Laws: Mace Tyrell: A token position for the former Lord Paramount of the Reach, now of the North March. Everyone knows he's not the real power behind his family… it is his mother. Unfortunately, none of his family are here in the city… because they despise your father.
Lord Treasurer:Lord/Uncle Kevan Lannister (Your… least favorite uncle. At least Gerion is Entertaining, and brings you treats and sweets, and tells tales of his travels in the east)
Grand Maester: Pycelle "The Wise" (A self given title perhaps, but he is more "Lecherous" than Wise)
Master of Whispers: Varys "The Spider" (He Frightens you… like every time you think you're alone… your not.)
Master of Ships: Lord Paxter Redwyne (He's… well, your father wished to bring Roddick Harlow to court, but the Reader refused, citing he wished to stay close to his family… and keep Balon on Good behavior.)
-[X]The Prince of the Palace: You wish to spend time with your servants, the cooks, the stablehands… even the old guards who are retired, and train with the master at arms. Rolled: D100 => 94+10=104
The Palace was full of people that most of the nobles at court just ignored, or gave the barest of attention when they needed it.
You despised that, because there were so many good people who were easy to talk to.
"So Joff." The cooks son, Will asked as he sat in the sun, as you sat in the shade of the gardens willow. "Are you sure that they would accept me being your… companion?"
"They either will, or i will make them. Why is Sara not here right now, is her mother busy?" You asked.
"Sara is attending to your mother." He replied.
Blast, so much for that. "Wonderful, so much for trying to steal the messages from Pycelle."
"Why are you so interested in spending time with us milord." Will asked. "We're not exactly highborn."
"It's precisely why I spend time with you. The entire court is blisteringly dull, and all they do is talk to me like I have no understanding of the world around me. And I do. You speak to me plainly, and for that, I enjoy you and Sara's company."
That and your father never really… tried to spend time with you. He was so busy, either hunting, managing the realm… or trying to manage the realm. He always went hunting because it helped him think of the problems that would arise, and come up with new ideas.
"Thank you, your grace." Will replied.
"It's Joff to you, but only when my mother is not around." You stated.
Well… that's two off the list, now for the stable boy and his brothers, Jon… Pate… and Pate of the West Wall.
Then there were the cooks and guards.
Why were there so many Pates!
Reward: You have a large network of friends in the Palaces' servenets and children of workers.
They really like you.
For actions within King's Landing and the red Keep, all actions gain +10 to the rolls.
-[X]The White Knights: Ser Barristan Selmy and his kingsguard are men who are among the greatest knights of the Seven Kingdoms. You wish to gain an opportunity to learn from these men. Rolled: D100 => 20+20=40
The Kingsguard were out in the Kingswood, to help your father deal with a bandit problem, who had threatened to kidnap one of Lord Massey's Daughters.
Well, it would be a great tale… if only they would listen and allow you to listen to them.
Failure.
-[X]A Spider's Web: you will follow the Spider, and see what he does. Rolled: D100 => 34-20=14
Varys quietly smiled as you were discovered.
"Boy princes are so curious, but I warn you Joffrey, that sometimes, Curiosity is something that must be controlled… if you do not… wish to fall."
Varys said those words… and they shook you to your very core.
Failure.
The Spider Scares you.
--------------------------------------------------------------
Your father is preparing for a great meeting within the Red Keep, and you are supposed to remain in attendance…
You however, only learn that the event is… very important.
What is the Event:
[]Your Name Day: Your father wants to make your 6th name day something special, and is hosting a tournament, along with an offer to many of the lord's of the realm… To make an offer to foster you elsewhere in the Realm.
[]Grandfather is Coming: Tywin Lannister is coming to King's Landing, to air his grievances, and to offer ideas to make the crown wealthier. Something about establishing a sort of… Trade Treaty with that all of Westeros would abide by.
[]Reveal Statue of Ser Jaime: Your Uncle is gaining a Marble Statue in the city, the Merchants would always remember the Kingslayer, who saved the city.
[]The Iron Bank: The Iron Bank… wishes to make a deal, to loan money to Westeros… The problem is, They are… coming with an entire fleet to make an offer.
[]The Royal Armies Drill: Once a Year, since the Army was created, it would drill around the city, with all regiments from all over Westeros taking part in it. And it was a show that everyone loved to see.
[]A Royal Progress: You father would begin a royal progress, and you would be given your first taste of responsibility.
AN: Enjoy.
