Like the ideas, can we keep Game of Thrones spoilers to a low. I’m still reading the first book.
@ ADNox
Alternate History Fiction if it’s done well.
True the world is half built for you, but genuinely coming up with a good “What if” scenario can involve a lot of work if you pick a more obscure sort of change in history that altered everything (As opposed to the old stand by of Nazis winning WW2).
I always wondered what would happen If it had been Stalin killed instead of Trotsky.
@trollhunterthethird Where in the first book? (Fire and blood forever.)
@adjppm1227 600-and-something.
@trollhunterthethird I see. Who’s your favorite character so far?
@adjppm1227
So the king one day took a stroll and then decided, “You know, I want to have a slave to call my own today?”
@RagEgnite Lol, no, he has dozens already. Allow me to explain…(Also, a king does not simply “take a stroll.” This isn’t black-and-white fantasy utopia…this is Sparta! Lol, but seriously, not black-and-white happy smiley face world.)
You’re working as a slave. You collapse.
Meanwhile, the king, with his wife and eldest son, personal bodyguards, translator, and other slaves carrying his litter, sees you and decides to take you (at the suggestion of his wife, who has her own reasons). They both recognize you as the dethroned ruler (your father died, your mother died, you were crowned, your crown was taken) from Jaragesh, who, ten years ago, they sold to a merchant for a large fortune to cover some of the war-time expenses. They recognize you because you have obviously physical standouts I refuse to tell you until you play the game (which I am working feverishly on).
Does it make sense now?
@adjppm1227 That shouldn’t be a question. Everyone loves Tyrion. But, seriously, what’s your favorite story arc?
it’s impressive how Martin distinguishes the one character from the other
for example it’s:Tyrion house of Lannister or even worse just “the Imp” while it’s Daenerys the Stormborn of House Targaryen,Khaleesi and Mother of Dragons Rightful Ruler of Seven Kingdoms and she has more titles but they’re spoilers

And for the guy reading book 1 ‘mother of dragons’ isn’t?
@adjppm1227 Tyrion is a favorite of mine, Ayra Stark and Jon Snow and his beloved friend Sam. I think that’s all I can squeeze into my top 4 but I could go on.
@Etzel Don’t worry i’m past the part when I find out she’s *wink* *wink*.

@Etzel Yes, I’m a dragonborn and I just happen to get her prego
I like the idea of a game with a similar storyline to game of thrones. I think you should add some relationships with certain groups of people, for example thieves, assassins, alchemists etc.

Tyrion, The Hound, Berec, Arya, Jon Snow, Tywin Lannister, Jaime Lannister, and Bronn.
The best characters in game of thrones for me are Arya Stark, Daenarys Targaryen, Jon Snow and Sansa Stark is becoming surprisingly cool.
@2Ton
She’s mine by the way.

@jacobb21 She’s my baby dragon’s momma. :3
@2Ton
I will have the dragon Viserion, you can have Rhaegal and she can have Drogon. Is that ok with you?
@SamuraiMantis My favorite story arc? Daenerys by far.
@jacobb21 One choice arc is going to take you to a rebellious criminal group. Don’t worry, I’m not above making you a thieving criminal.
@2Ton and @jacobb21 Which one do I get? Screw Daenerys, Drogon is mine!
