THRONE of GAMES: A Mashup
NOTICE: No knowledge of HALO required to participate!
The Warzone has entered a state of, well, war.
Two days ago, Chris of Clan Sangheili, the best player in Matchmaking, was booted from the game. Through his efforts, Clan Sangheili reigned at the top of the leaderboard for many seasons. With him gone, and the Firefight steadily approaching, the Clans of the Warzone now scramble madly for their chance to potentially dethrone Clan Sangheili, and take their place at the top.
But before they can get shit done, they'll need to get theirs together...

What to Expect
Throne of Games is a Game of Thrones-style open world, sandbox-esque roleplay. Throughout the course of the game, players can participate in political subterfuge, build their own little corners of the game's vast world, and partake in battles for the glory of their Clan or themselves.
The only problem is that they'll bungle it the whole way through.
For you see, Throne of Games also borrows many elements from the world of that acclaimed HALO machinima, Red vs Blue. Particularly the incredibly dysfunctional and morally dubious characters. Which, of course, are the players.
This ironic combination of serious gameplay and not-serious characters should make things... interesting, to say the least.
How To Play
This section assumes that you've already expressed your interest in participating and created your character(s) in the Character Factory.
Being a text-based roleplay, the events of Throne of Games will proceed through- you guessed it- the players' text. Words are your controls, sentences your actions. Everything that your character does, says, thinks, and feels is described through your writing. It’s like writing a little bit of a narrative every time you post. You are playing the part of your character by writing about them.
Due to the multiple locations in the Warzone, a heading system will be implemented, to make it easier for other players to see where your characters are. The list of headers is at the bottom of this post.
After copying and pasting your header, write your character’s actions, speech, thoughts, feelings, etc. Many people prefer to write these in the third person, but some write in the first person. You are free to write in whichever person you feel comfortable with.
Repeat the process for each of your characters, if you have more than one.
Rules
1.) All RPNation policies apply.
2.) PMs or messages in the Chat Club regarding world building and plot ideas are always welcome.
3.) Players may create up to two characters in the Character Factory.
4.) Please be detailed in your posts when not engaging in dialogue. A full paragraph is the required minimum. Cursing is allowed; it's Game of Thrones meets Red vs Blue, for fuck's sake.
5.) In combat situations, please be sensible.
6.) If players have any beef with anything, please contact your GM, a la me.
Headers
These are the headers that are available for players to use. Pick the one that corresponds with your character's location.
TAKE LUCK, AND WEAR YOUR SEATBELT.
