House Tarbeck

House Tarbeck of Tarbeck Hall was a noble House from the Westerlands that participated in the Reyne Rebellion on the side of House Reyne. Its last lord was Walderan Tarbeck, who died in the rebellion along with his House.
== History ==
Lord Walderan Tarbeck wed Lady Ellyn Reyne following the death of her first husband Tion Lannister. The Tarbecks and Lady Ellyn's brothers Ser Roger Reyne and Ser Reynard Reyne, often exploited their liege Lord Tytos Lannister's weak will, taking extravagant loans to restore Tarbeck Hall to its former splendor. They would dismiss Tywin's requests for repayment, with Tytos soon laughing along with them.
Tywin returned from the War of the Ninepenny Kings, seeking to restore House Lannister to the position of dominant House of the Westerlands. He demanded that all debts to them be paid or hostages from those who could not pay. Lord Walderan rode to Casterly Rock to attempt to convince Lord Tytos to undo Tywin's command. However, when he reached the gate he was met by Tywin, who had him thrown in a dungeon.
Lady Ellyn protested and her brothers threatened war, which caused Tytos to release Lord Tarbeck and apologized, as well as forgiving the debts they owed to him. The following year, Tywin demanded that the Reynes and Tarbecks report to Casterly Rock and answer for their crimes, for which the rose in rebellion. Tywin then called his banners and marched on Tarbeck Hall and Castamere.
Lord Walderan had no time to gather his forces and rode against Tywin's army with only household knights. He was killed alongside his sons and kinsmen, with their heads adorning the spears of the Lannister army as they marched towards Tarbeck Hall. Upon seeing them approach, Lady Ellyn closed the gates and sent ravens to her brothers at Castamere. She assumed that they would have enough time to muster their armies and break the siege, but Tywin rose trebuchets within a day and within hours had destroyed the keep, crushing Lady Ellyn and her son Tion. The Tarbeck forces surrendered and Tywin had the castle put to the torch, signaling the extinction of House Tarbeck.
