Got Campaign Game of Thrones of Game War of the Five Kings "The Seven Kingdoms are at war with one another... false kings destroying the country... the Usurper is dead. The Starks fight the Lannisters, the Baratheons fight each other." ―Daenerys Targaryen to Ser Jorah Mormont The War of the Five Kings was a major civil war in the Seven Kingdoms of Westeros that erupted in the wake of the death of King Robert I. In essence, the war was a three-way battle for the Iron Throne fought alongside two independence movements. The five kings in question were Robert's heir apparent, Joffrey Baratheon, Robert's two younger brothers, Stannis and Renly Baratheon, the "King in the North" Robb Stark, and the "King of the Iron Islands" Balon Greyjoy. Upon Robert Baratheon's death, his heir apparent, Prince Joffrey Baratheon, takes the Iron Throne. However, the revelation that he, along with his brother and sister, are bastards born of incest between Queen Consort Cersei and her twin brother, Ser Jaime Lannister, leads both of Robert's younger brothers, Stannis and Renly Baratheon, to claim the throne for themselves. Stannis sees himself as the rightful heir by right of blood, being Robert's heir with the removal of Joffrey, Myrcella, and Tommen from the line of succession, due to them being bastards born of incest. Renly claims the throne on the basis that he would be a better king, despite being second to Stannis in the lawful line of succession. Meanwhile, Robb Stark, the Lord of Winterfell, is declared the King in the North by his bannermen in the wake of the execution of his father, Eddard Stark, on false charges of treason by Joffrey. Robb had been in command of a host marching south to free his then-imprisoned father and to relieve a Lannister attack on the Riverlands. As the King in the North, Robb declares that the North and the Riverlands, ruled by his maternal grandfather Hoster Tully, are a sovereign Kingdom of the North no longer subject to the rule of the Iron Throne. With the attention of the North and the Iron Throne diverted, Balon Greyjoy, Lord Reaper of Pyke and ruler of the Iron Islands, seizes the opportunity to declare the Iron Islands independent once more, restoring the Kingdom of the Iron Islands. He then styles himself King of the Iron Islands and launches raids in the North while most of the Northern armies are distracted south of the Neck fighting the Lannisters in the Riverlands and the Westerlands. The conflict was instigated by Petyr "Littlefinger" Baelish, the Master of Coin, with the help of Lysa Arryn, who poisoned her husband Jon Arryn, Hand of the King to Robert Baratheon, and sent a letter to her sister Catelyn Stark claiming that it was the Lannisters who had poisoned her husband. Petyr, from the small House Baelish, ignited the war in order to gain more power for himself. By 303 AC, all of the original five kings were either assassinated or killed in battle, leading to the total and complete end of the War of the Five Kings. Ironically, many of the same events Littlefinger put in motion to increase his own power and influence were eventually discovered by the remaining members of House Stark, which were ultimately used as evidence against him for his execution.

Notes House Lannister of Casterly Rock is one of the Great Houses of Seven Kingdoms, and the principal house of the westerlands. Their seat is Casterly Rock, though another branch exists that is based in nearby Lannisport. Their sigil is a golden lion on a field of crimson. Their official motto is "Hear Me Roar!" However, their unofficial motto, equally well known, is "A Lannister always pays his debts. The Warden of the West is a Lannister by tradition. Fair-haired, tall, and handsome, the Lannisters are the blood of Andal adventurers who carved out a mighty kingdom in the western hills and valleys. Through the female line they boast of descent from Lann the Clever, the legendary trickster of the Age of Heroes who tricked the members of House Casterly into giving him Casterly Rock during the era of the First Men. The Lannisters reigned as Kings of the Rock until they fell to the Targaryen conquest, but were allowed to remain the liege lords of the westerlands. The House had fallen on hard times during the rule of Lord Tytos, but was restored to its former glory by Lord Tywin. His daughter Cersei is the queen of King Robert I Baratheon, while her twin Ser Jaime is a knight of Robert's Kingsguard.

If an Ally command is unreliable it can be forced to become reliable by making a KAB test or each of its UGs. Notes The Iron Islands are home to a fierce seafaring people who call themselves the ironborn. While some say the archipelago is named after the abundant iron ore on the islands, the ironmen claim it is instead named after their own unyielding nature.It is often said that every captain is a king aboard his own ship, so the islands are also called "the land of ten thousand kings” The isles are ruled by House Greyjoy from their castle of Pyke. Notable houses have included Blacktyde, Botley, Drumm, Goodbrother, Greyiron, Harlaw, Hoare, Merlyn, Stonehouse, Sunderly, Tawney, and Wynch. Noble bastards from the Iron Islands receive the surname Pyke. They are considered independent, savage and sometimes cruel. They live in a harsh land and they hold no love for the peoples of the mainland and their soft green ways. The Faith of the Seven of the Andals and the old gods find small favor with the ironborn, as their allegiance is given to their native Drowned God. Because of the scarcity of the Faith, there are few knights in the islands; known knights include Ser Harras Harlaw and Ser Aladale Wynch. Many ironborn believe in returning to the Old Way of reaving and paying the iron price.

  • Editor's Six Core Questions Game of Thrones
    Editor’s Six Core Questions Game of Thrones - Season 2 What’s the Global Genre? For the Season: External: Society > Political Status > Admiration What is the Global Life Value? In this season we see power and impotence at higher stakes than ever. Whoever wins this battle will keep their power, and keep their head. Life and death are naturally in every beat, and on the scale of Action’s life and death we see everything from life to death to damnation. What are the objects of desire? Starks: To have justice restored and power shifted to the rightful heir Lannisters: To have power and get the throne Daenerys: To have power and get the throne What’s the controlling idea/theme? For the season: War lacks meaning and revolution fails when leaders are obsessed with the game of thrones and fail to address the real enemy (and using dishonourable methods) For the Lannisters: We gain power when we prove our ruthlessness, ingenuity and authority What are the Obligatory scenes of the Global Genre (Society) ● Inciting Attack - Robb Stark has numerous victories against Lanisters off-screen. He is ​ a threat to the Lannisters ● Protagonists deny responsibility to respond - The Lannisters are the common ​ enemy, but Renly, Stannis, Rob Stark, and the Greyjoys cannot unite under one banner ● Forced to respond, the protagonists lash out according to their positions on the power hierarchy - Stannis kills his brother through magic, Grayjoys raid the North, Robb ​ Stark continues to win and keeps Jamie Lanister prisoner. ● Each Character learns what their antagonist’s object of desire is: ○ Rob wants to be acknowledged as King of the North and left alone ○ Stannis and Renly want to be King ○ Cersei, Tywin, and Tyrion want Joffrey to stay king ○ The warlocks want the dragons to get stronger magic ● Protagonists’ initial strategy to outmaneuver antagonists fails: Attempts to trade ​ Jamie for the Stark girls fail because of his escape attempt causing friction between Catelyn and Karstarks.
