Voltex Posted July 30, 2016 Share Posted July 30, 2016 (edited) Volume I depicts the lore of histories of Okoto up to the year 327 AE (After Ekimu), written by the Mask Maker Voltex. It serves as a record of the various regions of Okoto, alongside significant individuals and events in the island's history. Volume II depicts the more modern histories of Okoto, following the Battle for the Dawn in 327 AE, written by the Fire Protector Voltex Aodh, who serves as a Loremaster under the Knights of Ekimu. It serves primarily as a record of the War of Five Kings and the Magical Crisis, alongside the changes to Okoto that resulted from those two events. VOLUME IForeword: The First Mask MakerI: Here Us RoarII: Winter is HereIII: And Now My Watch BeginsIV: So End Our FoesV: Fire and BloodVI: Right Conquers MightVII: What is Dead May Never DieVIII: Of Legends and ForgersIX: Of Kings and Wars VOLUME IIForeword: The LoremasterI: The War of Five KingsII: The Magical CrisisIII: All as One --- Volume I was originally written to expand the world of BZP's Game of Thrones following Season 1, in preparation for the events of Season 2. Volume II has been compiled to fill in the events following Season 2, in preparation for the events of Season 3. I would like to thank Nato and Pulse for their significant contributions to Chapters II, VI, and VII of Volume I.

Voxumo Posted July 30, 2016 Share Posted July 30, 2016 Hmm... I'll admit, this is intriguing. I almost never read stories here on bzp, but I look forward to seeing this update. Also the whole 12 thing really reminded me of the primes, from transformers for some reason.

Twelve seemed like a nice, large-ish round number for the first group of Mask Makers to arrive on Okoto, hence my usage. I'm really liking this so far. Especially now that G2 is over I might adopt some of the ancient history part into my own headcanon. Glad you enjoyed!

Toa Smoke Monster Posted July 30, 2016 Share Posted July 30, 2016 A good first chapter to start this off. I can see it leading up to the some of the events that took place towards the end of BZPGOT Season 1. I look forward to reading the others, if I don't forget that this exists.

Click that follow button and you'll never forget I don't think it's spoilers to say that the "War for the Throne" section will be covering almost all of Season 1, as well as many of the events afterwards.

Well, here you go! As Strong as Stone --- It's the Stone Region! Feel free to give feedback on the style, layout and such; not quite sure if I'm happy with it.

Trijhak Posted August 8, 2016 Share Posted August 8, 2016 I feel sorry for the Stone Region. Fractured, then poisoned, although things seem to be getting better for them.

Well they couldn't just sit there and take it from you now, could they? And at last, the mystery of the Long Night's origins has been revealed. Looking forward to the next one. A few of these should have some cool reveals and twists, I think. I feel sorry for the Stone Region. Fractured, then poisoned, although things seem to be getting better for them.

Toa Smoke Monster Posted August 8, 2016 Share Posted August 8, 2016 I really like the backstories revealed here. There is a lot of interesting history within the Stone Region. Hopefully all the other regions are just as interesting. Also, I have a feeling that new Earth Region is going to cause some trouble when season 2 of the game begins...

Voltex Posted September 8, 2016 Author Share Posted September 8, 2016 This particular entry focuses on the Ice Region of Okoto. Included are the current major houses of the region, each of which rules over several smaller, minor houses, as well as any living or dead Protectors relevant to the current state of Okoto. Any and all events detailed within are dated BE (Before Ekimu’s Fall) and AE (After Ekimu’s Fall). It must be noted that of all regions, the Ice Region is perhaps the hardest to find and maintain proper records for; while the region has managed to give off an air of ironclad unity to the rest of Okoto, the truth is that the Ice Region is stuck in an almost perpetual state of war – one that leaves proper record keeping rather difficult, and has seen the eventual downfall of almost every single major house in the region except for Houses Glacies and Greavesy. --- It'll be up in the next few days. Truly, I do apologize for the wait. 2 Quote JOIN AETHERGARDE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voltex Posted September 9, 2016 Author Share Posted September 9, 2016 Here you go! Cold as Iron --- The Ice Region - a cold, barren wasteland... one that has been at war with itself almost constantly ever since Okoto was formed. Next up: the mysterious Knights of Ekimu! And now my watch begins. 1 Quote JOIN AETHERGARDE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nato G Posted September 9, 2016 Share Posted September 9, 2016 Very interesting. Things must be really bad if the nation with the history of endless in-fighting and civil war is everyone's last hope. I didn't actually expect that you'd keep all of the stuff that I'd suggested, particularly not the multiple Nato's, but I'm not going to complain.

Trijhak Posted September 14, 2016 Share Posted September 14, 2016 (edited) They probably really aren't going to like the Fire, Ice, and Water Regions now, or the Mask Maker. Might be a little resentful of the Stone Region for agreeing to peace terms and leaving them alone too. I would also not advise extending your hand right now, they'll probably amputate it unless you're from the Stone or Earth Regions. Seem like they'd really, really resent, well, all of us who fought them. Tends to happen when your region gets burned and spurned by other regions. Maybe.
