Character creation

Creating your character

Character creation will occur during session 0 where players can discuss their character ideas/archetypes and work together to make a noble house together. Characters will be made following the Core rules from ASOIAF Core Book. Characters will be created via a form fillable sheet and shared in the Discord created for the game. The Noble House sheet will also be created with a form fillable sheet and shared in Discord.

What to expect

Preparing for the session

Please come to Session 0 with a rough concept of a character and where they are from. During Session 0 we will discuss and decide as a group where the Noble House the party is affiliated will be from and their broad goals. Players will need to have a Discord account as the game will occur over Discord.

What Brady- DM of the Nerds brings to the table

Players can expect a player driven story, where players' backgrounds, goals, and desires being interwoven into the campaign. I will provide different voices for the variety of players within the game. From a mechanical perspective I go with the Rule of Cool. I will always allow players to try something and whether they succeed or fail will help to drive the story forward. This will be a roleplaying heavy game with moments of both personal combat and warfare incorporated into the game. Roleplaying and combat can be brutal in this system so players should be prepared for consequences, both for good or bad, to emerge from their decisions.
