== Appearance and Character ==
Donnel is a large man - tall, imposing and sinewy. He has green eyes and dark hair, with a close-cropped beard across his large jaw and a heavy brow. His face has a tightness to it like cured leather. 
Donnel is a serious, stubborn, rarely-forgiving, hard man with a strong sense of duty and justice. He is proud and protective of his honor. Donnel is an accomplished commander and warrior with no thirst for battle, instead commanding from the rear. He has the begrudging respect of nobles and smallfolk alike. 
== History ==
Born in 160 AC, Donnel was the only child of Lady Aemma Ryswell and Osric Arryn, Lord of the Eyrie and head of House Arryn. 
As a lad, Donnel was an introverted child, who was mature beyond his years, solemn and joyless. From an early age, Donnel was fostered by Lord Edywn Tully at Riverrun. It was here that Donnel came out of his shell, and began to form his own distinct personality.
