== History ==
=== Targaryen dynasty ===
Prior to the War of Conquest, House Bar Emmon was sworn to House Durrandon, the Storm Kings from Storm's End, but had closer ties to House Targaryen of nearby Dragonstone. When Aegon the Conqueror launched his invasion of Westeros, the Bar Emmons supported him instead of the Storm King, Argilac the Arrogant. With the creation of the Crownlands after the Conquest, the Bar Emmons became sworn directly to Dragonstone, instead of House Baratheon of Storm's End, who had replaced the Durrandons.
When the realm began to turn against King Maegor I Targaryen for his nephew Prince Jaehaerys, Lord Bar Emmon was among the score of lesser lords who gathered at his command. However, when Maegor mysteriously died upon the Iron Throne, Lord Bar Emmon fled back to Sharp Point. When the young King Jaehaerys I resided at Dragonstone, Lord Bar Emmon was one of the first lords who traveled to the island to speak with the king. When the Shivers struck Westeros, Lord Bar Emmon was one of the many nobles that succumbed to the illness.
House Bar Emmon supported Princess Rhaenys Targaryen in the Great Council of 101 AC. Lord Bar Emmon was a member of Queen Rhaenyra Targaryen's black council during the Dance of the Dragons. After the greens' victory at the Battle of the Honeywine, Lord Bar Emmon suggested for Rhaenyra to bend the knees to King Aegon II Targaryen, but the queen dismissed his advice.
