==History==
The Pipers rose alongside House Tully against Iron King Harren Hoare. After the end of the War of Conquest they were named as vassals to House Tully, the new overlords of the Riverlands, and they have remained loyal ever since. 
A Piper woman is married to Lord Quellon Greyjoy. She instructs the master of Pyke to sow Urrigon Greyjoy's fingers back on after he loses them in a finger dance with his brother, Aeron Greyjoy. Urrigon later dies of an infection, and Lady Piper dies shortly after, in the childbirth of Robin Greyjoy.

Clement piper leads the troops sworn to his house to guard the Golden Tooth after House Lannister start amassing troops. This order came from Ser Edmure Tully. His heir, Marq, is dispatched with Ser Karyl Vance and Ser Raymun Darry to King's Landing to ask for the support of King Robert Baratheon.
The Piper forces are beaten at the Battle of the Golden Tooth, but Lord Clement manages to escape with his life. Pinkmaiden is, at some point, assaulted by the forces of Ser Gregor Clegane. Marq and Karyl are integral to the defense of Riverrun, harrying the Lannister supply train and helping to lure Ser Jaime Lannister away from the castle, allowing for the Battle of the Whispering Wood to occur.
