I'm making this thread to discuss possible ideas for an RP set in the Song of Ice and Fire Universe by GRRM. For those that don't know, the same universe as the tv show: Game of Thrones.

I am a big fan of the show and the books and own all the books, even the World of Ice and Fire lore book.

Because of the expansive lore of the novels, there is plenty of cool stories that can be told in the world of Ice and Fire.

These are just some of the possible scenarios set before the show in periods in time where there is a lot of freedom to make up our own stories. We could also do some stories during the Targaryen reign in Westeros, but those periods in history are pretty fleshed out so if we don't want to retcon established lore it might be too restrictive to RP stories in that timeperiod.

Westeros

 * Age of Heroes - 10000 to 6000 BC
 * The Long Night (circa 8000 BC) - During the Age of Heroes the Others/White Walkers first appeared and brought with them eternal winter, the Long Night. The Last Hero and his companions fought against them and defeated them in the Battle for the Dawn. It was also during this time that Bran Stark, the Builder, lived and after the Battle he helped design and build the Wall and founded the Night's Watch.
 * The Night's King (circa 105 years after the Long Night) - The 13th Lord Commander of the Night's Watch encountered an Other/White Walker woman and took her for his bride. He then named himself King and began to attack his neighbors, the Stark King of Winter and the Wildling King-beyond-the-Wall. The two Kings had to team up in order to defeat the Night's King and bring peace to Westeros.
 * Andal Age - 6000 to 2000 BC
 * Andal Invasion (circa 6000 BC) - The Andals invade Westeros starting from the Vale with the intent of conquering the entire continent and bring with them their new religion, the Faith of the Seven, to spread. They also flee from Essos to escape the Valyrians. They fought numerous wars with the First Men Kings during this time, winning nearly all of them because of their superior tactics and tecnology.
 * War for the Iron Islands (circa 3700 BC) - The new Andal Kings of Westeros that finished their thousand year conquest of the continent now look to one of the two territories where they never managed to invade, the Iron Islands and the North. The Grey Kings, descendants of Urron Greyiron, defend their homeland from foreign invasion.
 * Wildling Invasion (circa 3000 BC) - The wildlings unite under the brother Kings-beyond-the-Wall, Gendel and Gorne. They manage to evade the Night's Watch and bypass the Wall in great numbers using a network of tunnels that extend under the Wall and attack the lands of the Stark King.
 * Age of Petty Kings - 2000 BC to 1 AC
 * Rhoynish Migration (circa 700 BC) - Led by the Princess Nymeria, the Rhoynish people leave Essos and migrate to Dorne in Westeros to search for a new home after theirs is conquered by the Valyrians. In Dorne, Nymeria finds a possible new home for her people, though in her way stands dozens of Andal Kings whom don't want new neighbors to contend with.

Essos

 * Age of Valyria - 8000 to 114 BC
 * Start of the Valyrians (circa 8000 BC) - The people of the Valyrian peninsula manage to tame Dragons with magic and with them start a war against the Ghiscari Empire that has tormented them for years, sacking their settlements and enslaving their people. This marks the foundation of the Valyrian Freehold.
 * Ghiscari War (from 8000 to 4700 BC) - After the first Ghiscari war there were four others where the Freehold attacked the Ghiscari and finally ended their empire in the 5th war in 4700 BC.
 * The Rhoynish Wars (from 950 to 700 BC) - The Valyrians continue to expand their territory with Fire and Blood, now setting their eyes on the Rhoynish people. It is a war between Fire and Water, as the Rhoynish people worship the River Goddess and are said to wield strange water magics. The first war starts in 950 BC, the First Turtle War, with the last starting in 700 BC, the Second Spice War.
 * Century of Blood - 114 to circa 14 BC
 * War amongst Valyria's Children (starts 114 BC) - following the Doom of Valyria that split the peninsula and killed most of the Dragonlords of Valyria, the surviving Dragonlords as well as the colonies of Valyrian that would become the Free Cities fight for control of the crumbling empire.
 * Rise of the Dothraki (starts 114 BC) - The nomad Dothraki people take advantage of the vacuum of power left by the Doom and the War between the colonies to start a bloody rampage across Essos, sacking and pillaging dozens of cities and causing untold deaths.
