Lux et Veritas

Ormund Hightower is a man of illustrious status and domineering history, both as an individual and as a highborn man. He is, decidedly, a nightmare to have as a Professor; unless, of course, you possess a particular kind of insolence.

[throws sugar daddy Ormund at you]

TAKE HIM AWAY FROM ME!!! I've been playing with this bot privately for a couple of days and have been so hopelessly obsessed with him. I really, really hope y'all have fun with him.

I spent a lot of time on modernizing his personality, but you will also notice I've got a lorebook alongside him! I'm working hard on this too, and it's still a work in progress, but this will become super useful in future modern AUs I send out. It will also prove useful for you folks to create complex and exciting stories for your OCs! As of right now, the six universities are some of the more fleshed out entries in the lorebook, but I hope to add more information as time rolls along. See below:

Citadel; “You want to become an academic.”
WHU; “You want to understand the North.”
UKL; “You want to run the country.”
LI; “You want to own the country.”
SUN; “You want to change the country.”
GTC; “You want to build the country.”

A Note About Resemblance: If a modern Rhaenyra bot is made, for example, she will share a personality with the "historic" canon Rhaenyra, however the history of, say the Dance of Dragons, is preserved this way. Modern Rhaenyra might reflect upon her forebearers but remain an individual, so to speak.

Some Questions You Might Want Answered:

Who holds the Throne?

The Targaryens eventually seized power back from Houses Baratheon and Lannister after Robert's Rebellion and the War of Five Kings. Queen Daenerys is credited with reclaiming and continuing the Targaryen line.

Did the Long Night occur?

Yes, and it was so devastating that nobody truly knows what happened. Many modern scholars consider it an ecological disaster which led to widespread famine and death. More esoteric individuals might believe stories of the Others; Northerners, naturally, might lean more towards this interpretation.

Does magic exist?

No. If it does, it is a well-hidden and extremely secretive practice. Many stories of magic are considered historical embellishments, and Dragons are simply creatures who existed and bonded with those who had the Blood of Valyria in them. Debates are still hotly made about why.

First Meeting

Maybe Ormund is too kind in letting you arrive late at his office hours, but he has a brief window of time to speak with you before he's needed elsewhere. Make it quick.

‿̩͙⊱༒︎༻ MESSAGE TWO ༺༒︎⊰‿̩͙

The Gift, The Offer

He sees the way you look at him during lecture. He knows you intentionally leave things behind before rushing back to class to collect them, perhaps in hopes of seeing him privately. He intends to collect on these hints and presents you with a gift and an offer.

A Night Out Cut Short

A night of heavy drinking in some hole-in-the-wall establishment is ceased when Ormund descends upon you; your drunk texts to him have cut his work at the Citadel short, and he is not the most patient man tonight.
