Not so with his brother, Addam's jibe is far from something a knight might walk away from with his reputation intact. Honor demands satisfaction by giving Lady Lyanna a duel for her favor. "Ser Balon the Humbled," he said , lightly slapping the hindquarters of Balon's horse to give it a little jolt as he rode up on the two. "A name meant for songs. Not the fun kind sung at joyous occasions. More like the ones sung at funerals and dull affairs. I ask you my lady, which would you rather have, humility or audacity and a crown of roses?" Balon liked Addam. They shared the same political views. He was a good knight and Balon would always be thankful he included him in the rescue of Ser Aladore. But like most knights Balon was proud. He let the slap on Beast's hindquarters go but the verbal barb couldn't be ignored. His looked to his friend, "Ser Addam you handle a lance as well as your drink... poorly. When our joust is over you'll end up sprawled out on the ground just like you were last night at the tavern." Balon chuckled. "But don't worry, I'm sure Lady Lyanna has a handmaiden that can recoif that pretty hair of yours."
*Balon will challenge Addam for Lyanna's favor. |

Addam spun Seasmoke around with such vigor, that from a distance, people might think he was actually angry. But up close, he was plan to see he was grinning ear to ear. This was the Balon he remembered. "You seem to forget that more oft then not, your sprawled out on tavern floors with me!"
"It will be a song for the ages then, two lightweights, who believe they are the Warrior reborn, fight it out for the Maiden's favor." And with that, he offered a polite bow to Lyanna, "My lady." And a hand in friendship to Balon. "On the morrow then, friend?"
*I accept

As Lady Ellyn did not reach high enough in the consideration for Lord Marq, she moves on to the highest name on her father's list that is not Lord Abomination, Ser Abelar Hightower is quite easily taken by her smile, Lady Darlessa Tarly makes a bid in the contest, but she never stood a chance. Ysilla makes a little quip about hoping for the dashing Anvil Gloom Knight to come, but seeing no sign of him (her?), she figures Trystane can have her favor to wear, maybe the mystery knight of fable might thwart the villainous tourney master and challenge Trystane for it? Lady Joanna is a little bit terrified of the attention Ser Daeron Wildfyre gives her, and seems at loss for words as Ser Quentyn Cordwayner challenges for her favor, if it weren't for cousin Tanda coming to the rescue to tell her to let them face off each other, she does not notice the bored arrogance in Tanda's tone, as if she all but utters just get on with it, cousin so that I can shine.. What Ser Quentyn might see in her is unknown. What his mother might see in her is clearer. A pliable pretty wife that will not contest her control over her son, and a Peake as well. Lady Mya, for all her allure and high birth doesn't quite manage to outshine the much more proper lady that is Lynesse. Somewhat unlike Redtusk to ask for the favor of someone that aren't jealously coveted by half the realm's sons, a point of speculation to be certain. Ser Thaddeus finds himself facing the challenge of Ser Normyn Flowers for Lady Alannys Tarly's favor. Few would put any coin on the Levalle Heir reaching the second round. Some wondering whether The Great Bastard might happen to have designs upon Lady Alanny's hand, the Tarly's being both powerful and uncommitted. Or maybe just taking revenge upon the Levalle's. Lady Daena Roxton, not having Redtusk riding for her this time gets an interesting duel for her favor instead, Ser Sebaston Rowan and Ser Symon Tarly, second sons of prominent houses both, and two of the favorites for the tourney as well. Though Ser Sebaston had been twice humiliated by Ser Aemon Flowers and lost out for Lysette's hand, and Symon Tarly a squire-beater and drunkard. Surely she would have preferred Redtusk. With Addam distracted, Ser Loren Lannister is free to claim Lady Delia Hewett's favor. Ser Alvyn Strickland asks for the favor of Lady Alysanne Butterwell, with Titus having veered away, Ser Tommard Heddle is not soon in offering a challenge for it. In a repeat of the black tourney, Ser Aegor Rivers and Ser Brynden Rivers. Great Bastards, each born of the unworthy's mistresses, half-brothers, but their respective Bracken and Blackwood blood have turned their rivalry to hatred, and rumors has it that they both love the same woman, though most think that Shiera Seastar only truly loves having them compete for her favor.
Ellyn woos Abelar, will have to face Darlessa Tarly Ellyn iniative: 7d6 23Darlessa iniative: 4d6 15Abelar: ID: 13 DR: 3 (4 vs Darlessa) Composure: 12 Ellyn goes on the charm offensive: 5#9d6r1k7 25 24 28 33 373-3(3f)-fried Can Darlessa match that?: 2#6d6k4 21 148-8-Outmatched by a wide margin. |

Mikel receives the favor of Lady Falyse, the girl is pretty, but nobody else wants to be seen asking for the ribbon of some Dornish half-spawn.

[Can I take on the winner of Bloodraven and Bittersteel again for Lady Shiera's favour?  ] And does attractive benefit count for disposition above neutral? |

Aerion had intentions of challenging for Ladies Shiera or Janna's favours, but upon seeing Lady Aemma Rowan be passed over for the higher profile women of the court, something about young woman struck a chord in him. Approaching, he gracefully bows to her and with one hand on his sword and the other on his heart says, "Honours would be mine if you would grant me your favour, Lady Aemma."
Vainglorious - Doesn't matter as I'm going for the highest anyway.
Phase 2 - Favour - CtE Status (Rep) + 7 Chivalry + 2 Anointed - 1 Inept - vs. TN 12: 6d6k4+8 28 - 4 DoSPhase 2 - Favour (CtE) - Persuasion (Charm) + 7 Chivalry - vs. TN 12: 6d6r1k4+7 30 - 4 DoSTotal: 8 - Legendary Assuming I have to pick someone such that we don't have to retcon any round matchups, otherwise would got for shiera (or Janna if you'd rather) Nominating Lady Aemma Rowan to be featured. Also forgot +1D from Attractive, unneeded. |

In that case you'd be overlooked by Janna/Shiera, so Aemma it is.

Ladies should calculate the virtue they should earn from champion prowess and report here (link to posts with their champion's matches) for easy resolving.

Robb ReyneRound 1 - unhorsed opponent Round 2 - wins by decision Round 3 - unhorsed opponent Round 4 - unhorsed opponent Round 5 - Defeated. By my own brother! *Shakes Fist*. +1 Virtue and +1 Glory for each "desirability rank" above Overlooked of the character whose favour you secure. Robb Reyne is 'Good', 3 ranks above Overlooked Ladies gains +1 virtue per point of glory won by their champion in the joust. 3 clean victories = +1 Virtue Total: +4 Virtue

Post by Davos Dayne on Dec 28, 2019 23:20:26 GMT 1
Being recently a widower, Davos sought a favor, but with no intent to signal a desired marriage. Indeed, he also knew his jousting skills were not much better than average, so he also avoided those ladies as put a high premium on being crowned. No, he instead looked for a lady who would laugh with him about his failures as well as cheering his successes, and whom he could simply have a good time talking with - or maybe more, if things went better than expected - later in the tourney. Seeing Lady Mya get passed over in favor of Lady Lynesse, Davos aproached her. He was no Roland Redwyne, but he at least knew he could get a smile and some laughter from the silver-haired beauty, and that had to count for something.
Catching the eyeMake the following tests, for each step above average a character is considered to be: +1D (Below Average is -1D): Vying for favor Status(Rep)+Chiv TN 12: 5d6k4+2 22 3 DoS Vying for favor Pers(Charm)+Chiv TN 12: 5d6k4+2 21 2* DoS (3 if prior Chivalry gains are approved) 6: May woo the good, may challenge for the legendary. 4: May woo the nice, may challenge for the good. -For each Disposition Rating above (below) neutral a character is towards you, your DoS counts as 1 higher (lower) for the purpose of vying for their favor. +1 DoS for Mya Rivers (Amiable) Wooing and ChallengesNot sure if there would be a challenger at this point or not. Rewards:+1 Disposition with Lady Mya (+4 to +5)
+3 Chivalry and +3 Glory for "Good" Desirability? |

Mya is such highly sought fruit that it's unlikely that nobody else would be interested if Davos is their competition, thusly: Rivalry triggers (next roll only counts if first is a success): 3#1d100 64 40 33So, 2 potential rivals, options: -Round 1 match vs Patrek Florent for Mya's favor. (That's probably a defeat) -Let Roland have her favor (he'll beat the other guy) and go challenge for someone else, off the shelf suggestion would be Loren Lannister over Delia Hewett's for same potential rewards, but with what should be a relatively even matchup. Anyone featuring in later rounds can't be eliminated (so the universe would bend to turn a defeat that would eliminate them into a defeat that does not), but favors can be won. |
