I feel that this will get very repetetive, so I suggest we await Corrine. I know that she's your cousin, and I think that you will make it into something, but I feel that we can cut the arguing until that happens.

[Reader]

Let's keep OOC cool - I can sort things if need be.

[Gwyneth Drakeson]

We won't make it something. It -is- something.

However, you're right that it's getting repetitive. I'm content to wait to see how things develop IC at this point.

[Baelon Drakeson]

Arresting someone is a perfect example of what is known as a performative utterance - it is even used as an example of such on wikipedia.
The defining feature of a performative utterance is that it is an action performed merely by the use of words.

You know, this isn't so bad, really. If Yoren can claim he didn't really mean to arrest Gwyn, then I can do the same regarding Athelstan - and cite this case as precedent.
Huzzah, the dilemma is now a trilemma. Even if Yoren chooses not to choose it all works for me.

[Ereth Redwain]

So you just meant to do harm to Athelstan then, since you never meant to arrest him?

That would have consequences after all, at least it's not as easy either to just say I walk with no problems.

Yet that is not for me to decide anymore, but it's also not as simple as I see people trying it to make, and only looking at the consequences of their vantage point.

[Baelon Drakeson]

If "
I didn't really mean it"
is a workable legal defense then "
I didn't really mean him any harm"
should cover that.

Iron fist of narratorly discipline incoming on this via an IC post from Ironrod soon. A small influence hit likely (some consequences merited) and it will aid the Drakeson defence in Riverrun, but let that be an end to it.

[Theomore Tullison]

So we're officially getting the full double Riverrun package?

(Good to know when adjusting the DP budget).

[Yoren longshore]

I'd like to still call bullshit, but of course I'll respect it:)

That ball is still in the Marsten court, I believe.

Bullshit on the Drakeson accusations? Seems legitimate IC and various NPCs will interpret events differently.

Bravo to Yoren &
Gwyn for showing that not all confrontations need to involve swords. A bit of IC enmity is important for flavour, as long as it stay IC. Conflict is the essence of drama.

[Yoren longshore]

OOC I have nothing against Gwyneth Drakeson. This is the only gwyneth I can't stand OOC:

[Reader]

She speaks highly of you. :;
):

[Gwyneth Drakeson]

Hehe, ok, rather than get into a 'he said she said' thing...now that Yoren has finally just straight up accused Gwyn of lying, the only thing she can do now is to haul out some witnesses. So I'll just wait for Reader's post now, in the interests of keeping things from mushroomsploding.

Also, Yoren, if it helps you hate properly, consider I was considering Paltrow as a model for Gwyneth for awhile.

Top pun from Theomore, had some fine thread titles in story 2.

[Davain Bartheld]

Really confused on why Ser Steffon and Kevin are rolling such high dice but keeping next to none. Any one care to explain?

[Reader]

Fuller explanation via a link when I get home. Baelon (as Symon Kytley in a previous game) wrote an excellent guide.

Basically charge (part of the jousting rules) inflicts -1D, animal handling lends bonus dice when mounted = lots of rolled dice, fewer kept dice.

[Baelon Drakeson]

[Reader]

Nooo, so close to sending a PC toppling in to the mud.

Much rending of garments and gnashing of teeth. Stupid Lucky benefit.

Ser Tyron's lance struck true, but luck was on Baelon's side and he managed to stay mounted.

Baelon dismounts, tossing aside the shattered lance and handing Velox' reins to Robert. Staying mounted would make for an easy victory, but Baelon is above such dishonorable tactics.
Turning towards his foe, he draws his prized dragonwing-guard sword and prepares for Ser Tyron's assault, the mud sucking greedily at his steel-shod feet as he positions himself.

[OOC: 1 DoS vs. Baelon, I presume from his rolls that would be less than my 10 AR for 0 damage, but I still could be dismounted.
[url=T1 Stay in Saddle (TN 9)][/url]: 4d6 8 Orokos....
[url=T1 Stay in Saddle Lucky Reroll TN 9][/url]: 4d6 15 That's better.

Combat
[url=PutG Initiative][/url]: 3d6-3 4 Orokos wants this to be dramatic, I guess.
Combat Defense: 11 [14 if fatigue used] (Base 10, -3 Armor, +4 shield) AR 10, Bulk 4
Health: 9/9
F/I/W: 0/0/0
Superior Longsword, Superior Plate, Large Shield, VS dagger

Will take a fatigue to ignore AP if attacked.

Can Steffon Vance take wounds?

[Samurel Manderly]

Can Steffon Vance take wounds?

I believe he can, since he has destiny points as well (apparently)

[Reader]

Can Steffon Vance take wounds?

He can, although whether or not I bother with lots of them is up in the air if the combat is clearly going one way or the other.

Would that you had flubbed your stay in the saddle roll instead, no lucky to save you punk.

I still have to roll for the second round..

Nearly shit myself on that role. Probably shouldn't be riding high in the saddle anymore.
