## Appearance

Victaria is a woman from the Wendwater line, from her hair to her shining eyes she is every bit her father's daughter, she always wears patterns that remember everyone where she comes from about the richness of the Kingswood and of the beauty of the Wendwater.

Giving her mother is a member of House Creasey whose land border the Riverlands, Victoria has an habit of wearing Riverlander jewelry with fish patterns long before marrying into House Tully being brought up on a similar way to many ladies of the Trident, a bit of a sensation when Victoria went to Kings Landing all eyes were on her lustrous hair breaking many hearts before meeting her future husband.

Victaria isn't a tall woman by any means, even for an average woman. Once, she was rather skinny, but now, as she settled in the new role of a wife and a comfortable life in Riverrun, she has gotten curves, albeit with a bit of a stomach fat.

In regards to dress, she has changed. While living in her family home, she was forced to wear modest, high-necked gowns. Now, in rebellion to that, the cuts of her dresses have lowered radically, as well as the designs and patterns. Her hair has a messy touch to it, even when tied with ribbons and silks.

## History

### The Flower of Wendwater

When Lady Leonette announced she was pregnant for the third time, Lord Arnel was joyous as with the line of the house secured a daughter would bless the ancient halls of the house like no other,his brother Victor even came with his twin sons making up a great feast honouring the little Victaria.

Nine moons later, when the child was born, Victaria got her name after her trusty uncle that have stood with her father time and again defeating bandits and miscreants on the troublesome woods, Lady Leonette had a peaceful birth many saying it even gave her a more youthful appearance so it would not surprise anyone that the woman would become pregnant again within a year with the arrival of another little one Corenna Wendwater.

Growing up with her mother's relentless love and bring the apple of her father's eye, Victoria explored the Wendwater lands with fiery disposition being confounded with a boy more than once, swinging a sword and shocking many a Lady on the Crownlands.

### Opportunity

Most of her childhood Victaria was spent with ease being delivered any desire she could think about. It specially marked her the trips she made with her mother to her native Riverlands marvelling at the sight of the Gods Eye,Harrenhal and the last of House Mudd's power Oldstones.

It was not difficult to see Victaria play Knight and maidens with her siblings, Clarence charging alongside her to rescue Corenna, the Septas would complain of course but a brilliant smile out of Victaria's face and all would be forgiven, such was the charisma Victoria had within her that would shield her from most during her life.

Victoria entered a bit of a rivalry with her cousin Marya, flirting with as many boys as they could count, experimenting as much as they could before marriage but it all ended when Marya became pregnant with the bastard of a Prince and all of House Wendwater tried to make the most out of the Scandal, little Manfrey Waters would be guarded and educated by the Wendwater till he turned sixteen and the Crown decided upon his future.

True it is that Victaria somewhat envied her cousin, she was more beautiful than ever once pregnant, the attention she received but with a single gaze of her little nephew she fell right in love taking care of him alongside Marya and bringing him through her favourite spots on the Kingswood that being when Victoria realised even more the treasure children are.

Ever the student Victaria took to entertain with dance, music and song,almost bored of the challenge she also sparred with Clarence on the Battle grounds kicking many squires right on their pride. Victaria also bonded with her father Arnel over their mutual love of architecture, Victaria's keen mind flourished under his father's tutalage assisting him on many daily duties to the point where it was easier to see her alongside Lord Wendwater than Clarence himself.

During this time Victoria had a fling with her youngest cousin Dudley, the two savouring each other's body through the Kingswood, a maiden and her Knight, this frivolous love would continue even with Dudley's marriage all of course until the fancy passed and met other passing hedge knights,a woman like Victaria knew that a life without sexual delights is nothing.

While her brother and father joined the loyalists during the Rosegold Rebellion, she and her mother seeked their Creasey family to stay safe from any possible attack that came from the Stormlands, Victoria would visit the Gods Eye whenever possible sailing with her ladies in waiting enjoying a life of bliss while the war kicked at its highest.

### Lady of the Riverlands

During one of her visits to the Mysty Isle old seat of the Fisher Kings she stumbled upon the visiting Raymund Tully who fell enchanted at once with her presence, their dalliance would continue with an invitation to Riverrun.

Her group soon let itself be known on the Tully castle,Victaria marvelled at the architecture of the keep and defensive system, the Wendwater's intelligence earned her the respect of the River court and within a year she became pregnant with Ellery her first son all ending with a marriage to be remembered.

During this time the death of her second son Victor and her little darling Roslin would heavily bear on her mood, she would take a new lover on the form of Waltyr Keath to deal with her depression but no more children she promised as the suffering of losing them is far too much.

Her popularity would be a true boost to Raymund's position during the years of misrule of Aerys Tully, she dealt with dagger and word, the handling of the Vance faction fell to her expertise,her courtly duels with Rosamund Vance were frequent and entertaining, reining her son's impulses and guiding Alyssa her remaining daughter through a lady's education while making sure she knew how to defend herself.

Before her ascension as Lady consort, Victaria redesigned along her assistant Nestor Ryger the villages of Fairmarket and Saltpans, becoming cities thanks to her support of the charters on Riverrun and King's Landing.

By the time of Aerys' death Victaria took her place as Lady consort despite the attempts of Lady Aelinor that fought till the bitter end to her boy's inheritance but thanks to the intermission of the Royal court surprising for many due to Aelinor's status as a Princess the Lannister were denied rule over the Riverlands.

On their old age Raymund and Victoria lead the Riverlands to steadiness many speaking warmly about them as the "Trouts of Prosperity",Ellery would go on to marry into House Mallister and Alyssa into loyal House Wayn keeping the heirs close to the land after the dissapointment the Targaryen ties were for many.

## Quotes

"Envious women have been a constant on my life, two little bitches like Rosamund or Aelinor are child's play compared to that"

"Use your mind Ellery, being guided by your heart leads to ruin my son, reign your temper and you'll find the competent son I've known since you were suckling at my breasts."

"Alyssa your marriage is as important as your brother's, I might be a Crownlander but the misrule of your cousin has greatly angered the vassals, the Tully were never Kings before the Conquest and that still marks the lack of authority we still hold within this land, the Vances still believe themselves our lieges, the Frey get richer by the day and the Mootons feel the Dragons are more worthy of their mindless flattery, your sons shall inherit House Wayn the true shield of the Riverlands and with a bit of wisdom that shall be enough to keep your brother's children in place for the new age to come."

"Ah Raymund, always the charmer, you make a woman feel young from time to time."

"Clarence,or is it Lord Wendwater now? It feels so strange still at my age being separated from the Kingswood and our dear land, a strong man like you knows how it is, navigating all this shameless ambition, we Wendwater are made for all seasons after all."
