Rhea Tyrell

**Rhea Tyrell** **(nee Redwyne) of Manderwatch** is the younger sister to the deposed Lord Urrathon Redwyne and the wife of Lucius Tyrell, younger brother of the newly made Lord Harlen Tyrell of Manderwatch. She is known for being a strong willed and prideful person with a dislike for her cousin who replace Urrathon.

## Appearance and Character

Rhea is a bit more organized in her appearance compared to her younger sister. She keeps her brown hair long, occasionally in a braid but often keeping it flowing free. Her dress is almost always either a dull grey or a light green. She does share her sister's doe brown eyes and plush lips but her skin is of a lighter tone, belonging to one who has not been in as much sun light.

She is vastly different from her sister in that she is a prideful and self confident person, giving off a more serious tone. She is known for her cunning, though hers is on a lighter side less inclined to hurt others than to secure those she aligns with. Despite her more serious tone she has shown a lighter side that won her many friends in the Reach.

She is more loyal to the family she married into, having spent more time at Highgarden than the Arbor, and has not used the Redwyne name since her marriage. She had a distant relationship with her brother and a strained one with her younger sister. However the relative she disliked the most was her cousin Franklyn, never fully trusting him and practically hating him after he was chosen as the new lord of the Arbor over her nieces.

## History

### Youthful Suspicions

Rhea Tyrell was born Rhea Redwyne and was the third child of Lord Victor Redwyne and Lady Lynesse Rhysling followed swiftly by her twin Falia. She was left largely to her own devices as most of her parents focus was on her older brother, the heir to the Arbor. She grew up around cousins and a younger sister with whom she differed from. Unlike her sister she took to her education and followed the rules.

Her time on the Arbor was not the happiest however, her brother was distant more connected to their cousins than his sisters. Meredyth was worse though, their relationship had been strained when they were children, Meredyth often steeling Rhea's toys, and it would grow as they grew older Rhea became a target of Meredyth's rumor gathering. Seeking a way to combat her sneaky sister Rhea came up with her own little code and leaned to search for oddities. Despite those tensions the two never caused a scene.

Her main problem with the Arbor though was not her father and scheming uncles, as many of cousins and her brother dealt constantly with them, no her problem was her cousins, more specifically the thin eldest cousin Franklyn. Franklyn had been away in her earliest years and she did not trust him when they met, not liking how he clung to her brother for protection despite being older. She never had proof or reason not to trust him but none the less she did and further did not like how they roped Meredyth in with them.

### Highgarden and Friendships

Like most of her siblings her reaction to her father's death when she was only ten was a bit modest, having little reason to really grieve for him. She did however soon have reason to miss him when her brother started appointing their older cousins to key positions around the castle, including Franklyn. Seeking to leave the Arbor for a time she was sent to Highgarden around the time Meredyth was sent to Starpike.

In Highgarden she made her first true friend in the sickly Bethany Tyrell, a girl a couple years her senior, who remained in Highgarden while most of her siblings were scattered throughout the Reach, only making occasional visits to her Caswell relatives. Rhea bonded with the older girl and helped her when Beth's illness became taxing, when Rosegold happened she was at Highgarden and did not feel the actions, only finding out of her brother rise in position moons after it happened. It was also in this time that she met Alerie Tyrell and her brother Harlen and Lucius.

Alerie was six years her senior and her brothers were both older than Rhea, but she was able to connect with Alerie because of her connection with Bethany. She also found herself attracted to Alerie's younger brother Lucius who was only two years older.

### Adulthood and Marriage

Rhea remained in Highgarden for her entire teenage years, making only a few trips back to the Arbor, and soon started thinking of herself more as a Tyrell than a Redwyne. Not to long after reaching maturity she married Lucius Tyrell and took on the name Tyrell, casting away her old name, only using it when absolutely necessary.

## Recent Events

In 98 AC much happened to Rhea's family. Her brother was accused of corruption and betraying the king and was stripped of his title, and reportedly sent to the Wall. In his place as Lord of the Arbor was not his three year old daughter Vanessa, but instead her cousin who had stolen the power when hearing of her brother's imprisonment. While not close with Urrathon she was furious when she heard her usurper cousin's action, and Meredyth's acceptance of it.

However she was unable to do much because she found herself pregnant around the same time with Lucius' child. Bethany confined her to Highgarden to be safe and she would remain their for most of the pregnancy. She was quite happy to learn of her husband's brother Harlen being named a lord and granted permission to build a castle on the Mander watch. In early 99 AC she gave birth a healthy baby boy she called Loras.
