Priscilla Lannister

## Biography:

Born in the year 357 AC, Priscilla Lannister was the second child and firstborn daughter of Tymon and Alysanne Lannister. While first dismissed as shyness, the years made it clear there was something far more severe: Priscilla couldn’t utter a word. She simply couldn’t speak. The child was *mute*. Already a temperamental child, her inability to speak did nothing to help her tantrums. She would cry all day and night.

As a small girl, it became apparent Priscilla enjoyed following her big brother. She picked up the sword alongside him, though she was always met with a scolding instead of a proper scrap. Her time spent with her brother would at least soothe her, and see her learn to read and write sooner. As she grew, her tantrums subsided but gave way to a troubling new habit: sneaking out. While it began as simply leaving her room in the dead of night, by the age of one and ten she snuck out into the wilds surrounding Casterly Rock. From then and many years to come, Priscilla learned a great deal of survivalism. The duration of her escape ranged from hours to days, to weeks on a few occasions. Childhood yielded to adolescence and her inner fire burned bright, and though her tantrums subsided, the Lioness still boasted a temper. Though she was mute, she was cunning with girlish charms.

During one of her outings, she came upon an abandoned pup. For once she surrendered herself to her father’s men, if only to lead them to the animal. She felt a compassion for this animal that dwarfed most humans. After silently pleading with the kennelmaster then her father, she was allowed to raise the dog, whom she named *Petey* by spelling his name in the mud. This encounter, combined with her experiences in the wild, saw her grow an interest in animal taming. All the while, she became proficient at archery and gave whatever she could to be allowed the chance to practice.

Though she never knew a home besides Casterly Rock, she’d come to know many strangers. She met one such person in 374 AC: Tristan Westerling. The man was on his way to the Crag, and she was going nowhere. The two grew close, but her interest waned as soon as he left to complete his journey. Serving men and traveling knights took his place. Her shift into womanhood saw her become quite the investigator around Casterly Rock.

She never left the West, and as a result yearns to visit the lands beyond. Even more, she would like to own them. A foolish notion, but one she has entertained many times, though she spoke of it as she did everything else: not at all.

Loreon Lannister

**Loreon Lannister** is the current heir to Casterly Rock and Perceon Lannister's younger brother. Differing from his older sibling, he is friendlier and more optimistic, whereas Perceon judges others - often negatively - almost constantly. He is a student of statecraft and politics, having lived among the Lannisters of Lannisport to learn about the ways of how a city is governed. Loreon, after the death of his father, is primarily in charge of court intrigue at Casterly Rock and when dealing with foreign envoys, merchants or other potential business and political clients.

Soon after his father's death, Perceon discovered some parts of ruling to be uninteresting and tiresome. This was why he named Loreon the Justiciar of the Westerlands, a title that granted him the power to officially handle minor contracts between House Lannister and its vassals on his own. In the end tasks even beyond his initial rank and power began falling on him, but Loreon never complained about getting to involve himself in politics.

While the Redwyne Shipping Company - And by extension the Fleet of the Arbor - Is mostly renowned for being a merchant fleet, they are also known to have strong ties to the island nation of Lys through House Rogare, historically coming often to the island's defense to secure the lucrative trade arrangements between Lord Hobber Redwyne and Lady Rhaenyra Rogare three generations before, which has vastly contributed to the company's growth over the years in to the trading empire it is today.
Royce Royce

## Ser Royce Royce

Ser Royce Royce, Master of Coin for Runestone, is a tortured soul that has been pushed around and abused for almost all his life due to his status as a dwarf. To those that are close to him though, he is known as a very kind and compassionate man. When he was born his parents were so distraught and unnecessarily angry at him that they punished the child by naming him Royce Royce, a name that would haunt him for the rest of his life.

Despite him being a dwarf, under the lordship of Harrion Royce, Royce Royce has done rather well for himself in Runestone. During Durran's Defiance when Harrion left to go fight the war, Royce Royce was left as regent of Runestone, and proved to be a very successful lord during his time there. After returning from the war Harrion was so pleased with Royce's work that he was named Master of Coin for the lordship. Out of pity and respect for his cousin, Harrion even went so far as to name him an honorary knight.

Today Royce Royce leads a rather quiet and simple life, though should something happen to the aging Harrion Royce, his hotheaded heir, and his deathly sick son, Royce Royce would gain lordship of the castle.

Before the landing of Nymeria and the Rhoynar, the Isle of Women was referred to by the name of Abulu. The northernmost of the Summer Isles, the island has remained sparsely populated since the Years of Shame, in which slavers ravaged the island, seeking to enslave and sell the Islanders who called Abulu their home. Eventually, those few that remained upon the island opting instead to move south, to Walano, Koj and Omboru, and thus further from the grasp of galleys from Ghiscar, Valyria and the Basilisk Isles. Whilst only the boldest corsairs from Talon and the Isle of Flies to the east dare enter the range of the Goldenheart bows of the Swan Ships patrolling the islands, the Isle of Women is amongst the least populous of the isles.

When Nymeria came to the Summer Isles with her people on their great exile, they were allowed to settle on the Isle of Women, then known as Abulu. It became known as the Isle of Women because of Nymeria’s followers, a large part of whom were women. However, the island was too small and sparse to support such a large population, and Nymeria soon left it with her people. However, several thousand of her followers chose to remain on the Island, and their Rhoynar descendants can be found there to this day.

Second Sons

The Second Sons are a sellsword company found in the Free Cities. Their banner is a broken sword and they take commands only from their captain.

## History

The Second Sons are amongst the oldest of the free companies, having won some famous victories. Four hundred years ago the Second Sons stood in defense of Qohor along with the Bright Banners company against the first Dothraki *khalasar* to venture east since the Doom of Valyria. However, they suffered a defeat and fled the battlefield, though the battle was later won by the Three Thousand of Qohor.

The names of every man to serve with the Second Sons is written in a leather-bound book, as well as when they joined, where they fought, how long they served, and the manner of their deaths. A tradition of the company is to sign in red ink. There was a time when each new man wrote his name in his own blood, but that tradition faded as blood makes poor ink. Famous past members include:

* Harwyn Hoare, Harwyn Hardhand, the first King of the Isles and the Rivers.
* The Tattered Prince, who also rode with the Iron Shields and the Maiden's Men, before founding the Windblown

## Recent History

The Second Sons were amongst the sellsword companies that fought for Tyrosh during the War of Unification .

They have recently been absorbed into The Azure Dragon, no longer working as an independent sellsword company.
Sellsword Companies

A Sellsword is a mercenary who hires out his services to the highest bidder. Inevitably, this sort of lifestyle involves a great deal of violence and physical exertion. Many sellswords are organized into companies. Some of the sellsword companies are very disciplined (such as the Silver Guild or Onyx Company), and some are nothing but rabble joined together in search of loot (like the Brave Companions); the Second Sons and the Stormcrows are in the middle. Most tend to be experienced professional soldiers, as it is a profession a man tends to chose after he's tasted a few battles and learned that he's good at fighting.

The Free Cities have made heavy use of mercenaries for centuries, to fight their endless wars in the Stepstones and the Disputed Lands; as such there are more sellswords in Essos than in Westeros. Many of the mercenary soldiers of the east are organized into long-established sellsword companies, or "free companies". During the War of Unification, both the armies of the Kingdom of the Three Daughters and Blackfyre-backed Lys utilised a number of sellsword companies.

Order of the Most Pious Fathers

**The Most Pious Fathers** are one of the largest Male Orders in the Faith of the Seven they are comprised of Septons over the age of 60

## History

The Most Pious Fathers are the oldest and largest Order within the Faith of the Seven. It is not known specifically when they were founed, though most put the guess at 370 years before the Conquest by Septon Marley the Elder, who is their patron. The Order has a long history of High Septons in its ranks, and the Most Devout who are part of an Order are most commonly a member of their ranks.

The Order has a long history of being a more traditional wing of the Faith, and are most commonly on good terms with the nobles and royalty of the area where they reside. They were advocates of the Conciliatory efforts of Jaeherys, believing that the Faith could better be served when under the protection of the crown, rather than the Faith Militant

Since the rise of the Sparrows and the destruction of King's Landing the Order has lost most of its leadership, yet under the previous High Septon they made a resurgence within the leadership of the Faith.

## Teachings & Charisms

Unlike most other orders, the Most Pious Fathers are not dedicated towards a certain goal. It is considered an honour for a Septon to be asked to join the Most Pious Fathers, a distinction reserved for the elderly of the Cloth. Members of the Fathers are most easily identified by the Silver Star-Shaped badges they wear on their chests and the white-pommed Zucchettos that they wear on their heads..

Any Septon can be asked to join the Most Pious Fathers by their leader or the High Septon, even if they are already dedicated to another Order. The Fathers are led by an elected Septon from their ranks who is automatically granted a spot on the Most Devout. It is also usual for the Fathers to be granted special consideration for any important assignments given to the Most Devout, and are often the chief diplomats and representatives of the Faith.

## Important Figures & Known Fathers

Bennifer Blackwood

Robert Blackwood

Roland Blackwood

Roger Blackwood

Godric Blackwood

Lord **Quentyn Blackwood** was the Lord of Raventree Hall and head of House Blackwood during the Blackfyre Rebellion and saw the house transition between Targaryen and Blackfyre reigns.

## History

Born to Lord Benjicot Blackwood a decade after the Dance of the Dragons. During the Blackfyre Rebellion, Quentyn sided with King Daeron II Targaryen and once again fought a war against House Bracken.

House Blackwood, reinforced with a few other loyalist houses, did not have enough men to hold all of the disputed lands between houses Blackwood and Bracken. Instead, Lord Quentyn retreated and abandoned The Teats in favour of protecting the village of Blackbuckle. Lord Quentyn left a contingency of guards at Blackbuckle and retreated back to Raventree Hall.

Lord Quentyn Blackwood briefly hosted Bryden 'Bloodraven' Rivers before he left the Riverlands for Dorne. The then heir, Ser Benjicot Blackwood, left Raventree Hall with Brynden Rivers after Quentyn informed him that he planned to bend the knee should the Daemon Blackfyre win the throne. Benjicot refused to live under Blackfyre rule, and instead absconded with his wife and followed Brynden Rivers to Dorne and eventually, to Essos.

Once the war came to an end, Quentyn Blackwood knelt to Aegor Bittersteel, the new Lord Paramount of the Trident. Though it pained him, he did what was necessary to ensure the safety of his family and the continuation of House Blackwood.

Quentyn and his family attended the Tourney in an attempt to garner and repair relations set in by the Blackfyre Rebellion just over ten years prior. All of his children but Godric, as he was too young at the time, enlisted into the joust, with Robin and Bennifer enlisting into the melee as well.

The tourney, as is told in the stories, was ended prematurely after the death of Prince Aegon Blackfyre in the hours following the infamous trial-by-combat. With their honour unsullied, the Blackwoods returned home. On their way home, Roger Blackwood, the second youngest of the Blackwood sons, contracted a sickness that claimed his life before they made it out of the Reach. The Maesters in the keep they stopped at said it was a disease of which the likes they had never seen before.

## Death

Only months after Lord Quentyn Blackwood and his children returned to Raventree Hall, the Great Spring Sickness broke out. The disease that already claimed the life of Roger Blackwood went on to claim the lives of Lord Quentyn, Lady Felurian, Bennifer, Robert, and Roland, leaving Robin Blackwood both an orphan and with only one sibling, Godric Blackwood.

Sellsail Companies

Much like sellsword companies, sellsails are mercenaries that fight for whoever offers them a contract, although their loyalties are often fickle, and it is known for them to turn their cloaks on their old employers if they are offered a better deal by those they fight.

Due to their naval nature, sellsail companies are often considered less versatile than their land-based equivalents, but can be used to bolstered fleet size in times of war. When they are not bound to a contract, it is not usual for them to seek wealth through a life as smugglers and pirates.

## Biography

As the second son of esteemed lord Barristan Selmy, Jason Selmy had not prepared for his life as a lord in Harvest Hall.He instead used his family’s money to enjoy a life of travel and adventure among the free cities during his younger years. After being trained by the lords and councilman of his father, Jason traveled east on a sort of spirit journey to discover himself and what he wanted to do with his life. He made East to Lys, where he was disguised as a simple merchant’s son and stayed with an old trading contact of his father’s.

As a ward under the trader, Jason made the most of his life in the free city. He caroused, learned as much as he could, and took in the sights and sounds of the different people. He stayed there for three years under the tutelage of many different mentors that he had come into contact with, most notably a man named Drazenko. Drazenko was a lysene merchant who had formerly served under the mercenary banner The Crybabies. The crybaby veteran taught Jason how to best handle himself on the field of battle, specializing in unarmed combat and tactics. After three years in Lys, Jason returned to Harvest Hall with Drazenko in tow to support his brother in his lordship. However, on his return, he came upon his home in disarray. Just before his arrival back in Harvest Hall, Jason’s older brother was killed in a hunting accident, forcing Jason to take the mantle as lord of Harvest Hall. It is there he stands, a new and green lord, facing the challenges of lordship as he makes his way into Westeros with its current turmoil.

## History

### Early History

Crake the Boarkiller, a legendary figure from the Age of Heroes, founded House Crakehall during this time, building the Crakehall and ruling from their, his stout lineage surving to the modern day with a slew of famous knights and lords emerging from their blood.

Over the centuries following the Andal Invasion, a Ser Aubrey Crakehall briefly ruled as King of the Iron Islands, having led a force of Westermen to take revenge on the Ironborn for their slaughter of the Queen Leila Lannister. After crushing the Ironborn force, ending the life of Kings Hagon and Harmund Hoare, and razing Hoare Castle, Aubrey Crakehall declared himself King of the Iron Islands and ruled for roughly six months, before being murdered.

### Blackfyre Rebellion

One of the outstanding supporters of Daemon Blackfyre was Ser Bertrand, known as Redtusk, a Crakehall. Redtusk perished in the Battle of Redgrass Field, attempting to defend Daemon. After the death of Daeron II Targaryen, the three Kingsguard present were offered the choice to bend the knee and avoid execution. Ser Roland was the only one to deny this offer, breaking free of his bounds and spitting his saliva and house words into Aegor Bittersteel's face before being chopped down by the guards.

The main branch of House Crakehall has remained staunchly loyal to the Blackfyres since they took Westeros, after they were rewarded greatly for the actions Ser Bertrand and his kin in supporting them with troops and the robust Crakehall spirit.
Legion of the Jade Dagger

The Legion of the Jade Dagger is an ancient sellsword company, hailing from Yi Ti. For centuries the Legion has served as a refuge for Yitish nobles and warriors in the disputed lands, regardless the reason for their presence so far from the homeland.

The Legion holds true to the strict caste system of Yi Ti, where both role within the company and dynastic ties greatly affect the respect a member is afforded by his peers and commanders. To this end, it is rare for members of the lower castes to reach the upper echelons of the Legion whilst many of nobles are often recruited straight into such ranks. There have been exceptions, but these are few and far between.

## Recent History

The Legion of the Jade Dagger did not partake in the War of Unification, but the growing tensions around the Free Cities have led to them seeking contracts based in western Essos in recent years.

After a series of contracts in and around Braavos, the Legion headed to Volantis at the turn of 281 AC. Shortly after arrival at the First Daughter, their wizened commander passed away and Xhu Yuri was chosen to replace him. A controversial choice given his youth, a meteoric rise through the ranks has raised questions that will need answering.

## Current Key Members

* **Xhu Yuri**, Jinzhou (Commander)
* **Zhong 'The Ox' Nui**, Duizhu (Second Officer)
* **Xue Bao**, Duifu (Lieutenant)
* **Liang Feng**, Duifu (Lieutenant)

House Mooton

**House Mooton of Maidenpool** is a noble house from the riverlands. Their seat of Maidenpool is one of the main ports and trade centers of the Bay of Crabs. According to legend, this was the location where Florian the Fool saw Jonquil for the first time while she was bathing with her sisters.

## History

The Mootons were petty kings in the days of the First Men. The Storm King Monfryd the Mighty defeated a Mooton king and conquered Maidenpool prior to the Andal invasion. King Florian the Brave was killed by Andals in the Fall of Maidenpool. The Mootons of Maidenpool were within the domains of Kings Benedict I Justman and King Torrence Teague, although the riverlands eventually passed first to the Storm Kings under King Arlan III Durrandon and then to House Hoare under King Harwyn Hardhand.[5]

Maidenpool historically failed to conquer Crackclaw Point.

During the War of Conquest Lord Mooton joined Lord Darklyn in opposing Aegon the Conqueror, but both were slain fighting against Aegon's dragons and Orys Baratheon. Lord Mooton's brother, Jon Mooton, then yielded to Aegon. Jon supported the Targaryens in the Field of Fire, slaying men who tried to escape the dragons.

The Mootons began the Dance of the Dragons on the side of Queen Rhaenyra Targaryen and the blacks. Lord Walys Mooton recaptured Rook's Rest for the blacks, but was then slain in a failed attempt to kill King Aegon II Targaryen's dragon, Sunfyre. His brother, Lord Manfryd Mooton, hosted the dragonriders Prince Daemon Targaryen and the dragonseed Nettles, for a time. Manfryd aligned with Aegon and the greens after refusing Rhaenyra's order to kill Nettles. Rhaenyra ordered that a decree of attainder be drawn up against the Mootons, but she soon lost power after the Storming of the Dragonpit. Manfryd served as a regent for King Aegon III Targaryen until his death in 134 AC.
Omboru

Omboru is one of the fourteen islands that make up the main Summer Isles archipelago.

## Description

Omboru is the third largest of the Summer Isles, beaten only by Walano to the north and Jhala to the south. The island has two main port-towns, Ginger Palm Bay, located on the north of the island, allowing for ease of trade with Tall Trees Town, and another, called Rosewood Harbour, on the south, both of which serve primarily as a means to transport the exotic hardwoods and precious stones found in abundance upon the island.

Northwest of Rosewood Harbour, Zhoza’s Falls can be found. Considered some of the largest and tallest waterfalls in the Known World, Zhoza’s Falls are named for the Goddess of the Waters, Zhoza, who is said to reside within the crisp, fast-flowing water of the area.

## Rulers

The island of Omboru is ruled from both its major settlements by a Prince/Princess. Ginger Palm Bay and the northwestern part of the island belong to the House Qaaz, whereas it is House Rana that resides over Rosewood Harbour and the southeast of the island. Zhoza’s Falls is found somewhere between their territories, and as such its ownership has historically been an area of tension and conflict.

## Early Life

Salazar was born in 251 AC as a bastard of the Bullmoose. He was born in the Summer Isle and taken to Westeros by his father. Growing up in the Hornwood, Salazar was trained with a blade and quickly became proficient in the art of swordplay. He stayed true to his roots and adapted a foreign almost dance like approach to fighting which was unseen in the Hornwood. Salazar became friends with the Bullmoose's other bastards and the young Hornwood boys, Daryn and Roryn, who he would train with daily.

## Durran's Defiance

Salazar proved his worth at the Battle of the Bridge where he killed many Valemen and protected the young futurer Lord Daryn. After the battle finished and the younger Harwin was Lord and commanded his forces return North, Daryn commanded Salazar to lead a small force at the Battle of the Green Fork. Salazar did so and returned to the Hornwood soon after. Daryn proclaimed him as his sworn sword.

## Recent History

Salazar has remained by Daryn's side for the past ten years and has formed a close bond with the Lord. He has not had to defend him much as the Lord is capable of that himself but Salazar stays with him all the same. He rides to King's Landing.
Ibben

Ibben is an island nation in the Shivering Sea, which is the polar sea north of the eastern continent, Essos. The chief city of Ibben is the Port of Ibben, situated on the southern coast of its largest island, Ib.

## Territory

The largest island of Ibben is Ib, a forested and mountainous island containing the cities Port of Ibben and Ib Nor. South of Ib are scattered islands in the Bay of Whales. Southeast of Ib is a moderately-sized mountainous island called Far Ib, containing the city Ib Sar.

South of the Ibbenese islands on the mainland of Essos is the city of New Ibbish, situated on a forested peninsula north of the Kingdoms of the Ifeqevron. Southeast of New Ibbish are the ruins of Ibbish, now known by its Dothraki name, Vaes Aresak (City of Cowards in Dothraki language).

The island is said to be inhabited by bears, mammoths, wolves, walrus', seals, and possibly unicorns.

They are reports that giants used to roam in the island.

## People

The people of Ibben are hairy and squat, with rasping voices, and both genders hunt in the Shivering Sea for whales in great fat-bellied cogs smeared with tar. They are said to be fond of axes and shaggy brown shields lined with fur.

The ports are lit by lamps of whale oil, and attended to regularly by slaves who ensure that the supply never runs low.

Parandor

**Parandor** is a coastal town in the Crownlands which answers directly to the King on the Iron Throne. It is located north and east of King's Landing on the north coast of Blackwater Bay, east of Duskendale but west of Crackclaw Point.

It has been the seat of House Parandor, for 2,000 years since it was built.
Leonetta Lannister

**Leonetta Lannister**, called **Leo** by her friends and family, is the youngest child of Lord Tymon Lannister and Lady Alysanne Redwyne. Though pretty and graceful, she has a boyish nature, her interests leaning more towards the chivalrous arts than those expected from a noblewoman. It is suggested that she has learned this behaviour from her brother Perceon Lannister, and that she has also picked up his arrogance towards authority.
Ilyn Peasebury

Ilyn Peasebury was a Stormlander that served in Queen Daena Blackfyre's Queensguard until his death in 247AC during the War of Unification.

He was replaced by Forley Fossoway.

## History

Called the White Pea, a nickname the towering Stormlander resented bitterly, Ilyn Peasebury joined the Queensguard in 239AC, a few moons after the death of Bruce Waynwood. As quick to temper as he was with his blade, Ser Ilyn was a capable duelist who served his Queen capably for over half a decade, until the War of Unification. The White Pea was slain, along with Matthos Hardyng, Kyle Footly and their Lord Commander Jaime Bettley in the final moons of the campaign.
Joffrey Marbrand

## Lord of Ashmark

Alysanne

Joffrey Marbrand is the Lord of Ashmark and the head of House Marbrand. He inherited his titles from his father, Tywin Marbrand in 276AC

## Biography

Born in 345 AC to Lord Tywin Marbrand and Lady Lysanne, Joffrey was a quiet, diligent child. His father was away during the War of Unification when he was born, but Tywin made sure that his son was ready to face the world. Training in swords was a daily practice from the age of six. At the age of ten, he began more book level training, learning the ins and outs of tactical maneuvering. He was knighted at the age of seven and ten by his father the day before his wedding to Lady Joy Swyft.

The following year, their eldest son Martyn was born. A few years later, Durran's Defiance began. Lord Tywin and his sons rode to battle with their liege. They participated in the Sack of Highgarden, with Joffrey managing the logistics of the supply trains heading back to Ashemark laden with gold. His natural authoritativeness allowed him to quickly maneuver the men and keep order in the ranks.

Following the war, he assumed an increasingly important position at Ashemark, until his father's death in 276, whereupon he became Lord. His wife would suddenly pass away two years later, sending the family into a deep period of mourning. Since then, he has kept a low profile, sending his brothers to Kings Landing for the feasts and wedding. Now his brother Glendon has been picked to be a part of King Daemon III's Kingsguard. Now Joffrey consults with his liege, preparing for whatever the future may hold.

Koj

Koj is one of the fourteen islands that make up the main Summer Isles archipelago.

## Description

Koj is a smaller island than Walano to the north, or Omboru and Jhala to the south, but no less important to the culture and people of the Summer Isles. The Summer Isles are famed for their Swan Ships, great seafaring vessels that ride the wind faster than any galley or warship from elsewhere in the Known World, and it is in the shipyards of Koj that the finest Swan Ships are constructed. Hewn from exotic woods native only to the Summer Isles themselves, the white-sailed vessels are an impressive sight as they cut through the waters of the Summer Sea.

## Ruler

The island of Koj is ruled over by just one family, House Xaq. Claiming descendancy from the legendary Summer Isle Prince Malthar Xaq, called the Mapmaker and the Windrider, the Xaqs reside within the Pearl Palace on the northern aspect of the island.
Ronnel Ferren

Ronnel Ferren was a Westerlander that served in Queen Daena Blackfyre's Queensguard until his death in 247AC during the War of Unification.

He was replaced by Harlan Arryn.

## History

Chosen to wear the White Cloak after the death of Duncan the Tall during the Bloodraven Rebellion, Ronnel Ferren proved to be quick-witted addition to the Queensguard that never failed to give levity to even the most dire of situations and occurrences.

He was slain by Yvaevor Drahar, a Lyseni commander hailing from the wealthy noble family of Drahar, during the last battle of the War of Unification. Although Ser Ronnel was a capable duelist, Yvaevor and his Valyrian steel greatsword proved too great an opponent.
Isle of Whips

The Isle of Whips is a small island found at the heart of the Jade Sea. It is not inhabited, beyond the small stations used by slavers to store their stock before sailing onwards on their journey.

## Geography

Located to the east of Great Moraq and northwest of Marahai, the Isle of Whips is isolated from the other nations and locations in the Jade Sea by leagues and leagues of water, and as such has not been colonised to any great level.

The island itself is largely barren, without any real plant or animal life, unlike many of the other islands found within the Jade Sea, and as such is incapable of sustaining settlements that would be heavily reliant on expensive imports from the surrounding nations of Yi Ti and Qarth.

Despite this, there is evidence that the island was once colonised, as on the northern coast a ruined city, its name long forgotten and rarely included on maps of the region, can be found.
Daemon II Blackfyre

### Titles

King of the Andals and the First Men, Lord of the Seven Kingdoms, Protector of the Realm.

## Family Information

### Father

Daemon I Blackfyre

**Daemon II Blackfyre**, also known as **'the Younger'** and **'the Dreamer'** was the third son of Daemon I Blackfyre, the second of the Blackfyre kings, and fourteenth Lord of the Seven Kingdoms.

## Appearance and Character

Later in the Lord Commander's life, Ser Duncan the Tall thought of Daemon II as "a young man lean and lithe, with a comely clean-shaved face and fine features". Daemon had a love of music and fine things. He had a close relationship with Lord Alyn Cockshaw.

Daemon had prophetic dreams. He correctly dreamed that his brothers Aegon and Aemon would die, and that Ser Duncan would become a knight of the Kingsguard. He also dreamed that a dragon would hatch from an egg at the Crossroads, but this turned out to be a metaphor for his brother, Haegon I Blackfyre, coining the words of House Blackfyre.

## History

Daemon became Crown Prince after his brothers Aegon and Aemon died at Redgrass Field. He knows an extremely tall hedge knight during a Trial by Combat.

He served for a time as Hand of the King, and later the King himself, during the Great Spring Sickness and had plenty of foresight to ensure the health of King’s Landing, but could not save the rest of the realm.

During his reign, Mors Martell and the rest of House Martell made its presence known in Dorne, where the land was untouched by plague. His Dragon Dreams served to make the realm prosper, and both his and his father’s reigns were relatively peaceful thanks to his father’s reputation and his excellent intuition.

## Death

Daemon passed away suddenly in 224 AC. His brother, Haegon I, found him the next morning in his bed. The Grand Maester confirmed his death to be a result of over exertion of his heart.
Isle of Birds

The Isle of Birds is one of the fourteen islands that make up the main Summer Isles archipelago.

## Description

The Isle of Birds is located in the Smiling Sea, a stretch of water between Walano to the north and Omboru to the south. Named for the myriad of avian life that inhabits the forested gentle hills and yellow-sanded beaches, the Isle of Birds is said to be the chosen home of one of the many gods of the Summer Isles, the Parrot Prince.

## Ruler

The Isle of Birds is currently ruled over by the Toda family, and each generation takes the feather of a different species as their sigil, wearing them proudly as a chain around their neck as a beautiful, colourful neckfrill.

In recent years, the island is said to be ruled in all but name by the Balarr Family, who have purchased the allegiance of the Toda family in exchange for exclusive trade of wildlife and exotic woods from the island. The family owns a small manse found on the northern aspect of the isle, which serves as a popular retreat for members of the family when needed or desired.
Nyra Bracken

Nyra is the daughter of Morgan Bracken and Kyra Darry. She is the youngest of the Bracken children and has two other siblings: Aren and Barba.

## Appearance

Nyra is rather small and slim. Rarely does she wear dresses and gowns, save for special occasions and events. Most of the time, she can e seen wearing riding clothes, as she spends most of her time doing such.

She has long light brown hair like her brother's, but sports the brown eyes of her father, Morgan.
Qal

Qal is a small island found just to the east of the Jade Gates. It splits the passage way into the Jade Sea into two, and both are guarded by fortified towns on the northwestern and southeastern sides from which Qartheen galleys patrol, enacting tolls on all those which wish to pass.

## Geography

Qal is an island that was once covered in a thick, vibrant rainforest, but much of it has been cut down for timber or to expose the precious ores found in the ground beneath it, facilitating the construction of the cities of Qarthak and Qalred, which are found on the north and south of the isle respectively.

## Cities

There are two cities on the island of Qal, both of which serve as harbours for the galleys that patrol the Jade Gates, demanding tolls from any which intend to pass through to the nations of the Jade Sea.

* Qarthak - Found on the northern side of the island, the city of Qarthak has been carved directly into the side of the pale cliffs found along the northwestern coasts. This makes the settlement very challenging to siege from the sea, although few have tried. The harbour, found on the eastern side of the city, is capable of holding over a hundred ships, although it is mostly occupied by galleys and warships at any given time.
* Qalred - Involved more heavily in trade than Qarthak, the city of Qalred is often involved in trade convoys with the nearby island of Great Moraq. The ships come back to Qal, their hulls heavy with crates of spices, which are then transported further north to the city of Qarth itself.
Medraro Rogare

Medraro Rogare was a Lyseni nobleman, and Head of the Rogare Family.

## History

Medraro Rogare showed aptitude for two great things in his five-and-thirty years, trading and duelling. His talent for making money continued to solidify the Rogares as one of the strongest and most powerful of the Lyseni noble families.

When Myr fell to the forces of the Targaryens and the Tyroshi, Medraro was given command of much of the Lyseni forces, eventually meeting them at the Battle of Widows. Although Medraro controlled his strength admirably, breaking the Kingdom's formidable spear wall, he and the Queensguard Jaime Bettley were slain, and the Valyrian Steel blade of the Rogare Family, *Truth,* claimed by the sellsword Captain of the Silver Guild.
Selhorys

### Currency

Honors (Copper, Bronze, Silver and Gold) (Roughly equivalent to Pennies, Stars, Stags and Dragons respectively)

Selhorys is a walled town located on the eastern shore of the river Rhoyne as it approaches it delta-estuary with the Summer Sea.

## Features

Although large, Selhorys is still considered a town, not an independent city, and is ruled from Volantis and protected by Volantene galleys. The Vhassar family of Volantis has a particularly notable presence within the city.

Alone among the major towns, Selhorys stands upon the eastern bank of the Rhoyne, making it more vulnerable to Dothraki than its sister towns west of the river. Timber from the Forest of Qohor is sold in the markets of Selhorys.

Selhorys has towers, domes, and cobbled paths. The city's sandstone walls shelter shops, stalls, and storehouses along the piers. The river gate is guarded by Volantene slave soldiers with tiger stripes, while prostitutes in its brothels are also slaves. Lanterns within the city are made of coloured glass, unlike the parchment lanterns outside of the city walls.
