This is a Time of Dragons and Peace.

The Reign of Jaheryes the Councilor is nearing its Apex, and the Dragons remain strong and illustrious. The Realm of Westeros, the Iron Throne, is secured, by power, and Dragonfire. This is a time when the realm does not bleed from war and conquest.

There is no war to fight. There is no evil to defeat. There are no enemies to slaughter. The listless knights and the ever-expanding dream of the world, of Aegon's vision… have finally come true. One land, One kingdom… one people under the threat of Dragonfire it remains together.

But as the Wheel of History turns, again and again, there comes a time to embrace one's self as an agent of change.

Change however cannot be recognized until it can be seen with one's own eyes.

You are one of those agents.

And what Family do you hail from?:

[]House Targaryen: The Royal House of Westeros, the House of the Dragons and the Conqueror. Masters of the Iron Throne. You are one of them. The World is entirely in your hands. It is up to you to discover what your destiny is.

[]House Valyreon: You are the Sons of Driftmark, The Lord of the Narrow Sea, and the masters of the sea that you sail. You are known as adventurers, killers, and more. Many think you are just the side kicks to the Targaryens, with ambitions that only compliment them. They are wrong.

[]The Dragonseed of the Crownlands: You are a Dragon seed, a dragon-blooded smallfolk from the Crownlands, that came to the Islands thousands of years prior, you have no true power or influence on the affairs of the world, not unless you take it with both hands.

AN: Because I cannot see anything else going wrong.

The Child of Fate: (Creation Part 2)
The Child of Fate: (Creation Part 2):

You were born on a starless night, with clouds blocking all light from the moon and the stars. There were many things that were going wrong on the night that came your birth. The stars ever bright did not wish to be seen from the sight.

But the stars were brilliant when they finally came, the kind that the Faith, and some of the few Valyrian worshipers the lived said that you were special. A child of fate and goodness.

You were too young to remember what they meant.

What year were you born in?:

[]The Year was 94 AC: The Year was another in the Peaceful reign of the Councilor Dragons are roaming around Dragonstone, wild ones. Many have tried to claim them… but all failed. (Will be part of Lenor's Generation. Born in a time of Peace and Adventure)

[]The Year was 97 AC: The Year of the Realms delight: Princess Rhaenyra has been born to the fanfare of much of the realm. You were just another child. But that does not mean you are special. (Will be around Rhaenyra's age, in a time of peace and Prosperity)

[]The Year was 114 AC: The Realm stands at the precipice. Political factions, called Blacks and Greens are tearing the court Asunder. Viserys Targaryens weakness and continued breaking of tradition have made many cries in anger and horror at the unprecedented continuation of tradition is broken. The Realm will Bleed. But that does not worry you. You are nothing. Right? (Will be part of the Generation of The Lads Kermit, Grover Tully, and Benjicot Blackwood, as well as Jacaerys Valeryon, and those young children that will fight in the Dance with Dragons.)


What was your name?:
[]Write in

Are you a Boy, or a Girl?:
[]A Boy
[]A Girl

What do you look like?:

[]A Child of Pale Skin, Violet eyes, and Ashen Hair

[]A Child of Black Hair, Blue eyes, and Pale Skin

[]A Child of Ashen Hair, and Ebony Skin (Must be from Driftmark)

[]A Child of Dark Hair, and Ebony Skin (Must be from Dragonstone or Driftmark)

And where were you born?:
[]Kings Landing (Flea Bottom): You were born in the slums and shit of Flea Bottom. There was nothing there but crime, shit, and Whores. Yet this place was a tale that all histories are made. From nothing.

[]Kings Landing (The Street of Steel: A little better. The safer part of town, from the eyes of the Smallfolk. Blacksmiths, local knights and squires who made it their residence, and the City Watch constantly patrol here.

[]Kings Landing (The Red Keep): You were Born in the Same Halls of King's, Queens, and Lord's. An auspicious omen if there ever was one.

[]Dragonstone: The Land of the Dragons, the Citidel of old Valyria was where you were born. Here be where Dragon's Roam. Here be where Dragons are Free.

[]Driftmark: The Sea Snakes home, and port of call. The High Tides and the sea are part of you as the air you breathe and the rocks you walk on.

[]A Ship: You are without a home. You sail on a ship that has no master, but themselves.

Your Parents and you (Creation Finale)
Your Parents and you (Creation Part 3):

Your Father was different than most men. He seemed to take the labor of his world, and treat you intelligently, not stupid or really anything. His words were intelligent and simple, but they always had meaning.

You could always count on them to be wonderfully important, and you would always think about them.

What was your Father:

[]A Fisherman: Your father sailed the waves of the sea, in search of the bounty of the sea, to feed his family, and to feed his fellow man. There was much that could be said, but he knew his trade, and you knew he would teach you that same trade.

[]A Cobbler: Your father made shoes, for any man or woman who came through his door. Be it the smallest beggar to the highest of lords. He was not a good person, but he was an honest man, always speaking his mind.

[]A Blacksmith: Steel was what your father worked with. Horseshoes, armor, chain, and plate, to even helms and rings. He was a master, a wonderful worker, but was as fiery as his forge. Always looking for the man who will make him rich.

[]A Hedge Knight: Your father was a killer. Your father was a manslayer, and a brilliant one at that, silent as a ghost, but always a great killer.

[]A Sailor: Your Father was a man who sailed the sea, with adventure and heart all through the world. Even in silence, he knew what was out there. Adventure, fame and fortune.

[]You never had one: You never knew your true father, you had a stepfather, who cared for you.


Your mother was also no great player of men. She was a good woman, who just knew too much, and was always eager to share.

What was your Mother:

[]An industrious woman: Your mother was always working, be it with your father or by herself, always working for coin to pay for her home, and her health.

[]A Septa: Your mother was a septa, a woman of the faith, learned and true… but however deflowered and loved your father, even if they could not openly marry each other.

[]A Whore: Your Mother was a whore.

[]A Courtier: Your mother was a lady at court, a smallfolk girl who got lucky that some prince took a liking to her, and made her a member of the court. She lived well, and served well, never wishing to lose her place again.

[]You did know your mother: You never knew your mother, for she was gone. You just had a stepmother, who loved you, but knew more than she let on.


You were always special, but what were you?:

[]You Dreamed of Dragons: You dreamed of a terrible thing to come. of Dragons... and Death. Some call you a prophet... others a monster who must be destroyed.

[]You had a Dragon Egg: You have a dragon egg. given to you as a child by a figure that you did not know. But you felt the power within it, and within you. You just needed a little more time to figure out how to unleash it.

[]You made friends with a Princess: You met a young girl at the cliffside, who was tired and cheery, lost and afraid... You led her back to her home, and the men waiting for her. She said her name and you yours. And she never forgot you,

[]You have a Dragon: You ride the Dragon Grey Ghost, whom you tamed as a child of 3 when you got lost wandering around the Volcanic island of Dragonstone. It saw a fellow silent brother and recognized kinship. All of House Targaryen has noticed you, and while they do not fear you… they do believe you might be a threat to their power.

Beginnings and Silence
Beginnings and Silence:

You had wandered into the Cave on a foolish notion that you were in fact, a hero. You had heard your mother's bedtime stories and at once thought, with very poor reasoning, that you were a hero like those stories. You could walk right up to the lion's den, or rather dragons den, and just tame the wild beast's heart with innocence.

You were such a fool. You should have died. You should have tumbled down the mountain, hitting your head on a rock and being killed by the mountain. The Smoke should have deterred you, but the smoke shot up away from you and the heat only pulled you forward towards the caves.

Dragonstone always had natural caves that the Dragons hid in, that's what the stories said at least. They used the heat of the mountain to give themselves more power, drinking the magma that should by all rights be pouring out of the caves they rested in.

Made their hordes, filling them with bones, skeletons, and meat. As you drew closer, you could only feel fear and silence. The silence was the worst part. As you drew closer you wanted to scream, to make a sound that could tell someone, anyone, that you were up the mountain, to come and save you.

But no sound could be made in your throat, something was stopping you from speaking.

Within the darkness of the cave, you could see the red, ruby red eyes… no crimson red eyes that stared out into the mouth of the cave. Towards you. Red eyes of the Cannibal.

And in those brief moments, as you saw the flames heat of the world preparing to be shot towards you, you could only scream.

And scream.

And Scream…

Until the wind knocked you away, and a Dragon landed, silent as a ghost in the moonlight.

This one was as grey as a stormy cloud, dark and without interest. It was impossible to describe the quickness and the size of it, compared to yourself, as his golden eyes pierced you with a glare of power. Of monstrous energy that could not be stopped or contained by mear mortal men. And your voice became silent, and you were unafraid.

Such was the first meeting between you and the Grey Ghost, as you found yourself watching the two dragons snap and snarl. Fire bellowing, but not coming towards you. You wanted to leave. To flee.

But those eyes that Grey Ghost had terrified you into petrification. Nothing could move you. Nothing could stir you. You could only sit, back on the obsidian ground near the cave, and watches two dragons dance.

Though it did not last for long.

The Cannibal retreated further into its lair. Fire billowed from its mouth of the cave, trying to burn the unwounded dragon, as Grey Ghost, silent as his name, moved towards you. Its heavy limbs shook the ground as it walked.

It moved its nose and sniffed you as if it was preparing to eat you to see if you were not rancid, or otherwise spoiled.

But you smelled it, and it reeked of fish and saltwater.

The same as you.

It turned away and in fear, you hobbled up its back, holding onto it as the Dragon walked back, down the mountain.

Down the mountain towards your home.
------------------------------------------

Your Mother had immediately tended to you, after Grey Ghost set you down, letting you slide down his wing as you collapsed.

You were lucky to be alive.

So much occurred. Grey Ghost tore a hole in the wall and ate the Fish oil, somehow not destroying any more of the house as he walked over to the front and laid down, guarding the door like it was the entrance of a cave, and you, his horde.

"It's going to be okay." She whispered. She was unsure of how to say those words honestly. How to keep you safe.

But the Ghost made sure of it
--------------------------------------

Father had not returned from his voyage to Pentos, but you had visitors a few weeks later.

Who came to your home?:

[]Baelon the Brave, Prince of Dragonstone: Your Lord, whom you have seen many a time in the distance on the Castle Walls, sat down and looked at you. "You have something that does not belong to you. But that was not your choice, was it?"

[]Daemon Prince of the Iron Throne, The Rouge Prince: He looked at you, sword in hand and twirled it. "A boy did this? Lying is not a good thing to do my dear. Tell me the truth. Why is the Dragon here?"

[]King Jaehaerys, the First of his Name: He coughed as he saw you. "Many things have happened because of the will of the Gods? But… this is something far more." He then smiled. Hello, my child… Do you recognize me?

[]Rhaenys Targaryen, Princess of the Iron Throne: She looked at you with strange eyes, as if she recognized them, only for a moment to pass, and she shook her head. "I see you have a talent for ruining things as always Visanya. Your Son is now in danger."

AN: Well if you didn't notice, poltics are going to be front and center here for the foreseeable future.

Hope you like them, cause once this is done...

We will then start our training.
