== Youth ==
The youth of Davos I Dayne, or broco_lee started out when he was born at King's Landing into the Daynish Bloodline in the year 287AB. Davos I Dayne picked up his sword-fighting skills quickly with the help of his mentor Prince Arthur II Dayne, or JusticeBladed. While at King's Landing the current king and Davos his grandfather, King Vorian II Dayne, learned young prince Davos I Dayne the ways of diplomacy. As time went on, he was appointed to be the Justiciar of House Dayne.
== The War of the Dragonstar ==
Right after the War of Eight Kings, it was learned that Lord Rhaegar Targaryen, or IRhaegarITargaryenI, plotted against Dayne to claim the Iron Throne for himself. As Prince Arthur II Dayne trained the Daynish Armies to repel the Dragon Rebellion, Prince Davos I Dayne trained alongside them and helped his father come up with plans on how to defend the city of King's Landing while doing this Prince Davos worked towards uniting House Dayne to work together during a time of much internal conflict within the House. During the siege of King's Landing Davos fought alongside the troops of Dayne and repelled the Targaryen invaders with a score of 5-1 for House Dayne. After the battle, King Vorian II Dayne abdicated the throne to his son, Prince Arthur II Dayne, which set Davos on the path of leadership over House Dayne.
== Early Adulthood ==
Upon the abdication of the throne to Arthur II Dayne, Prince Davos I Dayne was appointed Master-at-Arms of the Red Keep. While he was not at the Red Keep, he was working on the reconstruction of Starfall since the castle fell into disrepair. This rewarded him the title of Royal Architect. As he continued to serve on the Small Council as Master-at-Arms of the Red Keep, his father noticed that he was cut out for the position of Master of Laws. As Master of Laws, Davos I Dayne was the first to introduce the Assemblies of Westeros into the genre. The Assemblies was the way for Westerosi to voice their opinions on the current laws and to suggest new ones, another thing the Assemblies did was allowed for highborn and other nobility to participate as judges during the numerous trials that occured during Prince Davos' tenure as Master of Laws. This was well received by the people.
==The Dragon's Vengeance==
While Prince Davos I Dayne became the Crown Prince at the passing of his brother, Prince Gerold I Dayne, House Targaryen led by Lord Aegon VIII Targaryen, or Sashook, plotted against House Dayne to overthrow their reign as Kings of Westeros. Tensions in the Realm were high due to King Arthur II Dayne allowing Lord Tywin Lannister acting as Hand of the King to wrongfully invade the Reach, while King Arthur sat idle. Prince Davos tried to convince his father that he was doing a poor job as a politician and encouraged him to show mercy towards Lords and Ladies of the Realm when the King threatened them. As the King continued to show no mercy to those who once stood against him. House Targaryen was given everything they asked for, including the position of the King's Justice. The King thought this would please House Targaryen, they had no intentions of peace whatsoever.
When House Targaryen attacked King's Landing it came as no suprise to Crown Prince Davos I Dayne, as he had warned his father of their inevitable invasion. The siege was hard -ought but House Dayne fell beneath the overwhelming skill of House Targaryen at a score of 5-2.
Now King of Dorne, Prince Davos had a mission to reclaim the Iron Throne as it was his right which was taken away from him. After the fall of King's Landing, House Dayne reorganized their armies outside of the city, upon learning of King Aegon's plans to invade the Stormlands, King Davos intercepted the Targaryen Crown Army which was accompanied by the Kingsguard at Hayford. The Battle of Hayford proved to be a crushing defeat for House Targaryen and their Kingsguard. Their armies were overwhelmed by the Dayne and Mallery forces who laid an ambush alongside the King's Road, the Crown Forces where crushed in a 3-0 Victory for House Dayne. This gave the rebellion a new wave of hope.
After the battle of Hayford, Lannister armies came in range of King's Landing. Shortly after announcing his support for King Tywin Lannister. Davos Dayne grouped his army up with Lannister their 2 armies in the Reach. They then marched towards King's Landing and laid siege. House Lannister had the overwhelming majority of the War-Roster while giving House Dayne 3 spots. Dayne and Lannister forces were utterly decimated by House Targaryen with a 5-0 loss. After this humiliating defeat House Dayne received the majority of the blame by House Lannister even though they only occupied 3 spots on the roster.
After the first siege of King's Landing alongside House Lannister, House Dayne alongside House Mallery led by King Davos Dayne and Prince Dorian 'Springstar' Dayne, respectively sieged King's Landing and it would go down as the longest siege of King's Landing known in genre history. Although they lost the siege, it proved to be a tough one resulting in an 8-3 loss. The siege caused much controversy when the genre owner, FeriousEagle, changed the rules about sewers and extended the length of the war. One of the most memorable things of the siege was House Dayne's use of the underbelly of the city by hiding underneath the houses to surprise their opponents. The war seemed to have taken an unexpected turning point when PoloBladed won the fifth round by defeating two Targaryen soldiers alone, which led to the extension of the siege. The siege was lost and Dayne had Fallen for sure.
After these defeats, Davos Dayne handed leadership of House Dayne down to his son, Prince Basil I Dayne, and left with a ship from Starfall heading towards Essos.
== Starstrider ==
Upon landing in Essos, Davos was greeted by his old friend, Prince Dorian "Springstar" Dayne. Along with the Gallant Men Prince Springstar and Davos dawning his new title Starstrider which came from his travels across the Narrow Sea. Prince Davos trained with the Gallant Men tirelessly in Essos before they arrived into Westeros. They sailed back to Westeros and were put under contract to attack House Clegane. This was a stunning 3-1 victory while being outnumbered by 2 men.
The second conflict of the Gallant Men was to fight House Blackfyre at a severe disadvantage of 4 men. During the first engagement, Prince Davos along with another member of the Gallant Men defeated 6 soldiers of Blackfyre to secure the first victory of the battle. The tactics that Prince Davos came up with allowed the Gallant Men to nearly grasp victory with a 3-2 loss. Upon this loss, Prince Davos thought that he had learned with the Gallant Men all that he could and traveled towards the Vale. The adventures of Davos Dayne in the Vale were lost during the return to Starfall.
== Return to Starfall ==
While his son Lord Arthur III Dayne, DoMeat, led House Dayne into a period of military strength, Davos noticed that the diplomatic leadership was less than ideal. He returned to Starfall to secure allies to help him reclaim the Iron Throne for House Dayne. Although Davos did not partake in his son's first attempt to take the City back, he was helping secure allies to continue the fight.
== The United Realm War ==
After his son lost the first siege of King's Landing, a new rule was created that allowed armies to stack and to create large war parties. Davos noticed this and began rallying the banners of Westeros to unite together under one banner and return House Dayne onto it's rightful place on top of the Iron Throne. Prince Davos struck a deal with Lord Tywin IV Lannister, SSWEEEEjr, to secure the support of the Westerlands. In negotiations with House Pemford, Prince Davos convinced Lord Hayden Pemford, Northmathr, that this was the opportunity to save the Realm from Targaryen tyrrany.
During the second siege of King's Landing, House Targaryen took a defensive position behind the Royal Sept. Prince Davos noticed that the rebel forces could climb the windows of the Sept, to drop down on the unaware Targaryen forces. During the final round the Targaryens sallied out of the Keep in a final effort to defeat the Rebels in the city, Prince Davos led the beachfront invasion to hit the Targaryen army in the back. While leading the sea invasion Prince Davos helped the Realm secured victory against Targaryen rule. This secured the throne for House Dayne and his son once again.
== The Reign of King Davos I Dayne ==
After a short reign of his son Arthur III Dayne, DoMeat, King Davos I Dayne ascended to the Iron Throne.When his son left, he took the Daynish forces with him on his journey which left King Davos I Dayne in a position where he had to rebuild House Dayne. As king Westeros seemed to be at peace, apart from the Greyjoys. King Davos I Dayne was not known to meddle into other regions their affairs. When House Redfort joined into the Vale, King Davos stated that the Dayne armies would not march further north then King's Landing under any circumstance, unless foreign invasions took place. Within the Riverlands House Vance was beginning to muster their armies, King Davos was against spawnkilling them and allowed them to join peacefully into the Realm. Lord Blackwood on the other hand was unhappy with their entry into the Riverlands. This led to the beginning of the war between the West and the Riverlands with Davos Dayne declaring that he still would not march north against those who only saw it to spawn in.
In the Stormlands the houses Baratheon, Dondarrion, Seaworth and Connington were beginning to muster their forces so they could create the Stormlands accords. When House Targaryen threatend the peace within the Stormlands, King Davos took a diplomatic approach aswell as a big risk. He managed to convince the Targaryens not to invade the Stormlands and rather to settle peacefully within Dorne. When Davos learned that the Lord of House Targaryen was non other then his old friend Lord Springstar, he had recently learned about his Targaryen lineage, Davos was happy to allow him to settle within Dorne near his home.
Back at King's Landing Davos his reign was well received amongst the folk of the Realm. Most people were pleased apart from issues with the City Watch. During his reign as King, the City Watch proved to be a constant thorne in his eyesight. Never seen able to find a proper Lord Commander. With this he introduced the Blackwatch back into the genre. The Blackwatch operated as the private law enforcement of the king.At King's Landing House Dayne managed to keep relations well with both sides of the ongoing Riverlands War. King's Landing was the beacon of peace were everywhere else seemed to be at conflict.
The Laws of the Realm were very well received by the people of the Realm. Allowing for trials by combat and by the Seven aswell as expanding trials by court of law. The Assembly system that he had drafted during the reign of his old father proved to be usefull in finding people willing to make suggestions to the law. Aswell as the Assemblies the first Queen of Davos his reign introduced the Queen's Court which was well received by the woman within the genre. Another thing that Davos couldn't seem to find was a queen that lasted longer then a week. The second one was executed and the third Queen left King's Landing with him when he abdicated.
The Small council was formed of representatives of each region of the Realm. Many positions were chosen due to a vote between the Lords of each region. At his abdication the following was the Small Council:
