>Lady Falena Stokeworth was Aegon's first mistress. In 149 AC, she took the virginity of the fourteen-year-old prince. Their affair continued, until a Kingsguard knight found them together in bed in 151 AC. Prince Viserys then decided to mary Falena off to his master-at-arms, Lord Lucas Lothston, and convinced King Baelor I to name Lothston as the new Lord of Harrenhal, thereby removing Falena from court. Prince Aegon, however, continued to frequently visit Harrenhal for two more years, and it has been suggested that even after that, his visits to Falena continued. >While Aegon did not acknowledge any of Falena's offspring as his own, it is rumored that at least one of Falena's children, daughter Jeyne Lothston (Aegon's eight mistress), was Aegon's daughter.

>Megette, also known as Merry Meg, was found by Prince Aegon in 155 AC, when he was in need of a smith. Megette was married to the smith, and seven gold dragons and a threat of Ser Joffrey Staunton of the Kingsguard "persuaded" the man to let Aegon "buy" his wife. Megette was placed in a mansion in King's Landing, and "wed" Aegon in a secret ceremony by a mummer playing a septon. After four years in 158 AC, Prince Viserys returned Megette to her husband, who beat her to death within a year. >Megette birthed Aegon four daughters in four years time: Alysanne, Lily, Willow and Rosey.

>Lady Cassella Vaith was one of the hostages King Daeron I Targaryen had accepted at the Submission of Sunspear. It was Prince Aegon who escorted the hostages back to King's Landing. Eventually, the Dornishmen revolted, and killed Daeron, leading to Prince Viserys demanding Cassella returned to the other hostages, as he planned to execute them. Prince Aegon, who by then had grown bored of her, did not resist. Casella was returned to Dorne by the new king, Baelor I Targaryen, and would live a long life, consumed by the belief that she had been Aegon's one and true love, and that he would soon send for her.

>Bellegere Otherys, the Black Pearl of Braavos, was the captain of the Widow Wind, whom Aegon met after having been sent as an envoy to Braavos in 161 AC. Their affair would continue for ten years. >Bellegere birthed Aegon three children, two girls and a boy of questionable paternity: Bellanora, Narha, Balerion.
Christopher Rogers
>Lady Barba Bracken was the daughter of Lord Bracken; she had been a companion to the Princesses Daena, Rhaena and Elaena in the Maidenvault. She caught Aegon's attention in 171 AC, when all were free to leave the Maidenvault again following King Baelor's death. When Aegon became king in 172 AC, Barba openly became his mistress and her father became his Hand. She gave birth to a son that same year, two weeks before Queen Naerys gave birth to a daughter - a childbirth that nearly killed her. Hoping that Naerys would die and he could make his daughter a queen, Lord Bracken spoke openly of wedding Barba to Aegon. When Naerys eventually recovered, Prince Daeron and Prince Aemon forced Aegon to send the Brackens away from court. >Barba birthed Aegon one son in 172 AC: Aegor Rivers, later in life known as Bittersteel.
James Roberts
>Lady Melissa Blackwood, also known as Missy, was a kind girl who befriended Queen Naerys and Princes Daeron and Aemon. She "reigned" for five years as Aegon's mistress, before being set aside. >During her five years as Aegon's mistress, Melissa gave birth to three children: Mya Rivers, Gwenys Rivers, and Brynden Rivers (b. 175 AC), who would later be known as Bloodraven.
Brayden Anderson
>Lady Bethany Bracken, the younger sister of Lady Barba, had been trained by her sister and father to seduce Aegon and replace Melissa Blackwood. She caught Aegon's eye in 177 AC, when he came to visit his bastard son by Barba, and was taken back to King's Landing. Aegon had grown fat by then, and Bethany did not feel comfortable with this relationship. She found comfort in the arms of Ser Terrence Toyne. The king discovered them in 178 AC, and had Bethany and her father executed and Terrence tortured to death.
Aiden Johnson
>Lady Jeyne Lothston, the daughter of Lady Falena Stokeworth, Aegon's first mistress, and Lord Lucas Lothston (though some would claim Aegon himself was the father), was only fourteen years old when she was brought to court in 178 AC. She became Aegon's mistress, but not for long. Jeyne caught a pox from Aegon, which he had caught from a whore he had been seeing since Lady Bethany's death. Jeyne and her family were sent away from court quickly after this.
Liam Hill
>Serenei of Lys was brought to court by Aegon's newest Hand, Lord Jon Hightower. Serenei was said to be a sorceress, and would die giving birth to the last of the king's acknowledged bastards. >Serenei had one daughter by Aegon: Shiera Seastar.

What happens when jousters mutually unhorse each other? Is it whoever hits the ground first? Is it a draw?
Isaiah Hernandez
Jousting functions on a point system. They'd both get the maximum amount of points for unhorsing.
Hunter Sullivan
Doesn't unhorsing normally end the match?
Nolan Foster
Cave his chest in with a hammer, obviously.

What the fuck- this thread took off? It was on page ten and no one had responded; I had written it off.
Well, seeing as it's still here: is anyone following the miniatures game and, if so, what do you guys think of the tweaks they've been making over the past few weeks?
As a stereotypical Vorthos-type who obsesses about the stats of his plastic army men accurately matching the lore they're based on I've been extremely pleased at everything they've done.
Evan Harris
As an example, here's the changes they made to the tactics board.
Now the healing mechanic is represented under the 'Wealth' space representing using gold to purchase reinforcements, while the 'Crown' space now causes an enemy unit to undergo a panic test representing the intimidation of the Iron Throne.

I am planning running a mini campaign based on the Sworn Sword. For those of you who haven't read the story, in summary there is a draught and two minor houses would be competing for a small river. One house builds a dam over the river and the other house suddenly gets no water at all. Our players will be belonging to the second less powerful house and they will try to find a way to get their river back either by force or by diplomacy.
How should I get the PC roles? Should the lord of the house be an NPC? Should the players all be hired swords or castellans or kngihts or should one of them be the heir of the lord? What do you think about PC roles in ASOIAF rpg?

>How should I get the PC roles? Let them play whoever they want in the house, except... >Should the lord of the house be an NPC? If you trust one of the players not to abuse this power to make the game less fun for the rest of the group, you can let that player be lord. Otherwise definitely an NPC. >Should the players all be hired swords or castellans or kngihts or should one of them be the heir of the lord? Up to you/them. Heir to the lord isn't as much of a problem since if they start lording (no pun intended) their authority over the rest of the group the lord himself can step in and tell the heir to knock it off. >What do you think about PC roles in ASOIAF rpg? Not sure what you mean by this.

In that case, take a look at the sample characters in the core book for ideas and expand from there.
