A Sword Without a Hilt: A Song of Ice and Fire/D&D 3.5 Crossover

I'm perfectly fine with letting Richard carve him up like a turkey, but I would like to hear the actual story first and express our... displeasure.

I'm actually in favor of letting Richard answer now, unless we intend to ask Criston some pointed questions like @Diomedon suggested.

Hrm, my proposed shaming might work, but it might just provoke him further. I'm not 100% about it. Maybe use it as a tool to get him to back down until after the discussion is concluded?

A probably safer bet would be to request they postpone such things until their duty (guarding their lords during the parley) is seen to?

Being smug bastards or just letting a murderblender loose on a helpless knight doesn't paint us in a good way. And we might still make use of Renplacement as an ally or whatever. My point is, no sense in being overly antagonistic, let him be Robert's problem, and not ours for once.
 
We should prepare to cast WoC or Freezing glare and Tyene a ranged (via pouch or dagger) healing spell, or some other crowd control. Because I half expect this guy to go evil* blood-crazed unstoppable (via reason and diplomancy).

*makes an open ended heartfelt prayer to anything that will help him get revenge and he will do what they want, and something agrees.

But we really should see Richard be freaking awesome.

@DragonParadox If we vote to call out to be non lethal, can we get an interlude from one of the other knights around, or the Lord of Tarth?

@DragonParadox We would like to support Ser-Richard...

But is there some protocol or honorable demand here that must be met?

If two nobles meet, even during a situation where negotiations take places, and one demands satisfaction to their honor, especially in a case where both are Knights, it becomes unseemly for their liege to interfere.

It's not "impossible" for them to do so, but it would create problems.

So is there any actual body of evidence that Garth Greenhand is Renly Baratheon? There haven't been that many interludes with him, and DP makes it a point to be ambiguous in them.

1. We now have confirmation that Renly traded away his identity.
2. Despite Garth having in-tact memories of his family and his own past, we've seen none of this in his interlude. No going back to visit family, no going to familiar places, etc.
3. Fey lords can, as stated above, mess with time.

It's unlikely, yes, and not exactly the most supported theory, but not impossible.

That being said, there are several holes here.
1. Our commune told us that Renly was still in the Feywild. If Garth was actually Renly, it would have told us Renly was somewhere in the Reach.
2. "Wanderer without a name" is what we heard when we asked about Renly, but even if Garth was Renly he'd still have a name because he'd have made a new one for himself be becoming the Green Knight.
 
Made of Valyrian Steel, at that.

    [X] Let Richard handle the situation
    [X] Diomedon
    [X] Let Richard handle the situation
    -[X] If it comes to a duel ask him not to overshadow the negotiations with a death if possible
    [X] Smirk and take a half-step back to face Richard slightly. Let him deal with this. It's his honor, his fight, and our fun!

This update aluded to a connection between fey infested Highgarden and Fenly though.

Furthermore, the divination just spoke of foreign lands. The Feywilds was just our guess.

And Garth Greenhand has no own banner or last name. The first interlude just calls him Garth. The title is something bestowed upon him by others, not something ge claimed for himself.
