Hello!
Welcome to my first ever AAR. While looking around a little bit, and falling in love with the writings of Henry v. Keiper, I got the sudden urge to write a narrative CK2 AGOT AAR myself.
Contrary to most AAR's I have seen, this one is going to be seti in Essos, Pentos, and rely heavily on character traits, relations, past experiences . In short - RP. I'm not even going to try to take over the whole world, starting as a little county, because as a matter-of-factly, I am not that good at the game.
To make the game a little bit harder for myself, (and in turn create a better story of beating the odds,) I decided to be the only High Valyrian patrician family in Pentos set about abolishing slavery because of our character's past experiences. This goal may change after a successor. I will start by governing a single province, and some small holdings in Pentos.
I decided to make up a "short" backstory integrating the character traits I had chosen for my character, but in the end I wrote 4 238 words in Microsoft word. The PROLOGUE is not something you have to read, but it gives a better idea on how the story is going to be written, and how did the only High Valyrian house in Pentos come to power.
I am doing this only because I enjoy it, and my intentions are to finish the writing. In real life I am a film director, writer and editor owning my own production company in my homeland Estonia. I have always loved to tell stories.
I have a background in creative writing, but I surely make mistakes here and there, because english is not my first language. Taking inspiration from GRRM the II, Henry v. Keiper, I try to infuse my characters, for lack of a better word with as much character as I possibly can.
Feedback would be very appreciated!
I hope you will enjoy this AAR!
So, without further ado, let us begin with PROLOGUE Chapter I!
I have changed the location of the thread from CK forums to CK2 forums (newbie mistake), and also I have fixed the issues with the table of contents. Cheers!
The fourms are dark and full of lurkers.
