Joelle

Joelle is a red priestess of R'hllor, originally hailing from the Stormlands, before being sold to the Temple of the Lord of Light in Volantis. She is one of the many red priests sent to Ghost Hill to further the spread of the Red God.

## Appearance and Character

Joelle's oval shaped face features long, dark hair framing large doe eyes, high cheekbones, and a youthful complexion. Tall for a woman, she stands a few inches shy of six feet, with a slender frame of one accustomed to hours of prayer. Despite approaching fifty years of age, worship of the the Lord of Light has granted her the appearance of a young woman.

Although she has spent decades in the Red Temple training as a priestess, she remains inexperienced in the ways of the world. Bright and quick of wit, she possesses unwarranted confidence that often lands her in trouble. She has fond, vague memories of the her youth spent in Westeros, but she is firmly devoted the faith of R'hllor, and will heartily except any task given to her, no matter how daunting.

## History

Born 83 AC to a fishmonger and his wife on the shores of Cape Wrath, Joelle lived a simple peaceful life. The youngest of five children, she was often overlooked, and little Joelle relished in her free reign. Such lack of supervision proved costly, for at the age of ten, she was abducted by pirates roaming the Stormland coast. The Rosegold Rebellion consumed the realm at the time, and there was little effort to stop piracy from the Stepstones.

Taken to the slave markets of Volantis, Joelle was sold to the Temple of the Lord of Light. Finding a potential for talent and intellect, she was quickly given to the care of the priests, and began her training in the worship of R'hllor. Such training proved a long, arduous process, but her devotion to the Red God remained unwavering. After many decades of prayer and learning, she was finally granted the full position of Red Priestess.

When the R'hllor worshipping House Toland is named ruler of Dorne, the temple in Volantis sends emissaries to aid the spread of their faith. Chosen for her Westerosi background, Joelle is one of several priests dispatched for this endeavor. Stationed at the red temple in Ghost Hill, she has helped increase the influence of R'hllor in Dorne, despite the violent backlash of zealots of the Faith of Seven, and the heavy handed rule of the High Justiciar.

## Recent Events

Joelle has been tasked with spreading the faith of R'hllor in the Stormlands. Hearing of Lord Nakario Staedmon's devotion to the Lord of Light, she journeys to Broad Arch to establish a foothold in the region of her past.
Ryam Redwyne

Knight of the Reach, Master at Arms of The Arbor

Dunstan Belmore

Franklyn Redwyne

## Appearance

Unlike his cousin, Ryam is a muscular, towering figure with the ropey cords of muscle that are typical of a sailor. He wears shoulder length red hair, tied back to prevent handicaps in combat. He dresses in common clothing, not falling victim to the vanities of the nobility of the realm. On the sea he wears leather, a sensible alternative to drowning as many a knight has in the past. A crimson cluster of grapes adorn his cloak where it clasps his armor.

## Personality

An honorable man and loyal to a fault, Ser Ryam Redwyne treats those around him with honesty and respect He is a man who holds himself to the light of the Warrior above. Kind to his friends, ruthless to his foes, Ser Ryam is a man as deadly with his words as he is with his blade.

## Youth

Ryam enjoyed a life of luxury from a young age. He excelled in the yard, besting men twice his age at only two and ten. Under the immense pressure of his father Ser Garlan Redwyne, Ryam would quickly grow to become the most formidable knight in the Arbor, possibly the greatest in the Reach. He obtained his knighthood at the age of four and ten, only two years after he struck down every knight in his uncle's household. He would strike up a friendship with Franklyn Redwyne upon the latter's return to the Arbor. Ryam soon become Franklyn's closest confidant.

## Adulthood

Ryam would be named the Arbor's Master at Arms at only ten and nine, the youngest man in history to hold the position. He would become the conduit through which the new Lord Urrathon would increase the Arbor's manpower to a level that had never been seen before. Always a seafaring people, House Redwyne soon became a formidable land force as well. In recent years, Ser Ryam has become one of the most prominent figures in the Arbor.
Orys Flowers

Baelor I Targaryen

Jaehaerys Targaryen

Armidyon Targaryen

Rhaenys Targaryen

**Orys Flowers** is the acknowledged bastard son of King Viserys I Targaryen and an obscure maid named Falia. He was conceived during the White Rose Rebellion at Goldengrove, where he has spent most of his life.

Orys has two illegitimate sons, both born of different mothers, both of which Orys does not know their location.

## Appearance and Character

Orys is a handsome man, despite not carrying the distinct Valyrian silver hair, his lilac eyes prove his Targaryen heritage. He is no giant, standing at an average height, one which is only slightly shorter than his brother, the King.

Orys is a wise man, quick-witted but never quick to anger. He is a strong believer in rights for the common folk and he advocates for a return to a previous era.

Orys is not only known across the realm for his parentage, rather, he is regarded as wise man who has learned many skills throughout his life, lords across the realm know him as a fierce lover who cares not of his partners gender, and a man who is skilled with coin. Despite his status as a bastard, he feels just as Targaryen as any trueborn heir.

## History

### Youth, 99 AC - 112 AC

Orys mother was not a well-known figure, simply a maid from Bitterbridge. Though from context, the King must have found her quite attractive, as he visited her enough to get her pregnant, see her pregnant, and honour her by acknowledging the child. Viserys allowed the Rowans of Goldengrove to take his child, following the adoption, Orys never saw his mother again, and rarely saw his father. As Orys grew older, as did his compassion in the form of bisexual romances with most notably Aubrey Rowan, the heir to Goldengrove.

### Squireship, 113 AC - 116 AC

For 3 years, Orys served as a squire under Ser [Name TBD], during those years, Orys learned much of the world and became very skilled at many crafts, most notably Statecraft and Diplomacy. He also received arms training and became a proficient fighter, though far from being one of the best in the realm like some of his relatives.

### Life in Goldengrove, 117 AC - Present

Orys returned to Goldengrove following his knighthood, becoming a loyal advisor and great confidant of Lord Rowan through the years. His political and financial savvy was a great asset for the Rowans, allowing them to consistently grow as a House. Though without the relationship between Aubrey and Orys, its likely the bastard would have left Goldengrove long ago.

Prudence Celtigar

Quincy Celtigar

**Ser Trevas Celtigar** was the second-born son of Lord Edwell Celtigar and Lady Anya Meadows, and was **Lord Consort** **of Duskendale**, by virtue of his marriage to Lady Genavene Darklyn. A knight in his own right, Trevas was a skilled fighter, and was a close friend of Prince Aemon before the latter's death in 96 AC.

Trevas had done what he can to enjoy his later years, taking particular joy in spending time with his grandchildren and in seeing his youngest children reach their true adulthood. Unlike his wife, who he did love dearly, Trevas was very present in his children's lives, and was a very loving dad.

After struggling through a nasty, vicious bout of dragonblight in the seventh and eighth moons of 98 AC, Trevas passed away in King's Landing.
Trog

Jorgen

Sigmust

Trog

Salma

Vanya

Mard

Vaska

Myra

Holler

Sawny

Brenna

Ragna

Mody

Wolf-Bait

Trog is one
of the many sons of the Under-Father, chieftain of the Cave Dwellers. He was
spawned from the incestuous coupling of the Under-Father and his sister-wife
Neda. He is considered a very dangerous man due to his great strength but is
also known to be quite dim. Due to his great strength he often acts as his
father’s bodyguard. He claimed his sister Vaska as his mate but with no progeny as of yet.

## Appearance & Character

Trog is
widely known to be the largest and strongest of the Under-Father’s brood. He’s
an enormous hulking man with sharp filed teeth and a piggish face with small
beady eyes. His body is grotesquely swollen as a by-product of being a result
of inbreeding, causing parts of his neck, abdomen, thighs and forearms to bulge
and sag. Despite being slow of wit his mind proves surprisingly sharp in
combat. Having led his people on numerous raids over the wall he’s developed a
strange sort of cunning that makes him a force to be reckoned with on the
battlefield. His devotion to his clan is unmatched and he regards his father
with reverence, obeying whatever command he’s given.

## Born Amidst Shadows

Trog was
born in the darkness of the caves beneath the mountains beyond the wall. He was
the result of inbreeding between the Under-Father, chieftain of the Cave Dwellers,
and his sister-wife Neda. He was monstrously large, even as a child, bigger
than any of his brothers though not as quick or clever. As a young man he was a
loyal companion to his older brother Garo, the eldest of the Under-Father’s
children, and his older brother often used Trog to intimidate his foes.

## The Best Brute

As he grew
older Trog was put to use by his family, used as a beast to batter at their
foes and rewarded for his good behaviour. He followed his brother Garo on
plenty of raids over the wall, ravaging the southern lands and bringing back
loot aplenty for their clan. When his brother was slain it was Trog who seized
command of his old gang, putting what he’d learned to good use. He would
venture across the wall and return with his club caked in dried blood and his
cronies carrying weapons and trinkets. His success made his father take note,
the Under-Father had mostly ever thought of his fifth son as nothing but a
dullard, but he now saw potential in the big brute. Trog was appointed to serve
as the Under-Father’s personal bodyguard and servant, cutting an intimidating
profile as his father’s hulking shadows.

Tourney of Storm's End

The **Tourney of Storm's End** in 96 AC was hosted by Lord Roy Baratheon in honor of the man he squired for, Aemon Targaryen after his death earlier that year. Although meant to honor one of the dragon's kin, anti-Throne sentiments were rife among the Stormlander nobility, many of whom sought independence from the Iron Throne. Conflict between loyalists and separatists was inevitable.

## The Events

### Joust

The joust was a splendid affair, with notable people from across the realm participating. After several runs through the lists against Raymun Caswell, the winner would be Dorian Toyne. A controversial winner, as earlier in the day he had slain a man in the lists, supposedly on accident.

#### Other Competitors

Raymun Caswell

Roy Baratheon

### Melee

The largest event to have taken place, it was confusing and often difficult to tell from the side who- if anyone- might have been winning. In the chaos many managed to perform well, but none more so than Helaena Targaryen, who managed to win the event.

#### Other Competitors

Roy Baratheon

Lorimar Dondarrion

Gunthor Estermont

### Feast

Although the feast itself was a grand one, with much food and wine coming in from across both Westeros and Essos, no dish was quite so thick as the tension in the air. Notably, the Estermonts had begun to make a scene talking ill of the deceased Aemon, angering many including Lord Roy. Had it not been for Clyve Caron's calming of the situation, things might have turned bloody. As it were, things would the next year, during the Year of Skulls and Daggers.
Vaegon Velaryon

Ser **Vaegon Velaryon** is the unofficial Co-Regent of Driftmark, ruling alongside his elder brother Malentine Velaryon, the legal Lord Regent of Driftmark.

## Appearance and Character

Vaegon is tall and strong, with long silver hair and the shade of a beard. His eyes are harsh and purple. The knight is rarely outside of his armor. While he is a warrior, his temperament is calm and collected in truth.

## History

Ser Vaegon fought in the Hook Uprising with his brothers Aethan and Malentine. While Ser Aethan marched with the King and Malentine led the Velaryon fleet, Vaegon led the forces of House Velaryon on the ground, leading the charge at Sharp Point and Sweetport Sound both. While not as well known as his late cousin Daemion Velaryon, no one can deny his skill with a sword.

Runestone

Runestone is the ancient seat of House Royce, the oldest and proudest House in the Vale of Arryn. Located on a strategic pillar of rock on the coast of the Narrow Sea and connected to the mainland by bridge, it is considered the one of the strongest fortresses in the Vale, second only to the mighty Eyrie itself. Located in the southeast of the Vale, it is located to the north of nearby Gulltown.
Night's Watch

The **Night's Watch** is a military order dedicated to holding the Wall, the immense fortification on the northern border of the Seven Kingdoms, defending the realms of men from what lies beyond the Wall. The order's foundation dates back to the Age of Heroes, at the time when the Others were pushed back. The men of Night's Watch wear only black, and they are known as **black brothers**. Recruits who join the Watch are said to **take the black**.
Sansa Stark

Queen Sansa Stark

Queen Sansa is the eldest daughter of Desmond Forrester, the sister of Torrhen Forrester, and the wife of King Theodan Stark I, which makes her the Queen of Winter.

## **Appearance and Personality**

With her grey eyes and dark hair, Sansa has the distinct Northern look. She is a very beautiful young woman, and one who knows how to dress. She often wears the finest velvet gowns and furs, and is a trendsetter at court.

Although her husband believes in a more isolationist approach to governing, Sansa is careful to maintain friendly diplomatic relationships with their neighbors and with other kingdoms.

She’s well known for her charm, intelligence, and her ability to persuade and manipulate people. She puts those skills to good use for the benefit of her family.

## History

Sansa was born in 75 AC in Ironrath to Desmond Forrester and his wife, Maya.

Like all her siblings, she was taught by her ambitious father to excel in all things. A natural beauty and fast learner, Sansa quickly discovered there were many ways to manipulate the hearts and minds of men and women.

But Sansa is trained in less intellectual pursuits as well. Unbeknownst to her strict father, she learned to fight with daggers with the help of Torrhen, her favorite brother. They had to hide and sneak around in order to do so, so she quickly mastered the art of concealment as well.

Before her marriage to Theodan, she was betrothed to an old lord she did not like, and in order to get out of it, she poisoned him. Her brother Torrhen took the fall for her, claiming he’d killed the man during a fight. It’s a secret they’ve both kept ever since, although it hasn’t stopped Sansa from continuing to dabble in poisons.

She married Theodan Stark in 94 AC, and was crowned Queen of Winter four years later. They have four children together, but the last birth (that of twins Bowen and Raya) was so difficult it’s likely it has left her barren.

## Recent events

She was recently crowned Queen of Winter after her father-in-law abdicated in favor of her husband Theodan.

Oldcastle

### Location

Along the northern coast of The Bite, east of White Harbor in the Kingdom of Winter.

### Religion

The Old GodsThe Faith of the Seven (Notable Minority)

### Vassals

HighcrestCopperwood

Barrow Bay

Ryefield

Oldcastle is a holdfast in the Kingdom of Winter, on the northern coast of the Bite, southeast of White Harbor and southwest of Ramsgate. It is the seat of House Locke of Oldcastle, and has been occupied by them for centuries.

## Description

Essentially, Oldcastle is organized in the same fashion and within the same boundaries as the first motte and bailey to be laid out in the Age of Heroes. Where once a timber palisade enclosed the vast bailey, now there is a stone wall. Where a modest wooden tower stood upon the grassy motte, now a stout square keep sits enthroned. The bailey it overlooks is comparable in size to the first Oldcastle, but occupied now by a maze of outbuildings - ranging from the proud Great Hall sitting at the foot of the motte to the humble storehouses and servant's cottages built against the outer wall. In addition there is a respectable godswood and a small sept, the origins of the latter being disputed, and space for gardens and livestock.
Jasper Targaryen

**Jasper Targaryen** is the fourth son and youngest child of Prince Valerion Targaryen and Lynesse Royce. He was named for the former Lord Protector of the Vale Jasper Arryn. Currently he is a squire for his elder brother, Viserys Targaryen.

## Appearance and Character

Tall for his age with a comely, but deceptively thin build, Jasper retains the piercing violet eyes of old Valyria, and though his hair is still purely Valyrian, it is of the much rarer golden variety. His features have yet to harden into that of a man's and as such he looks far more boyish than anything else. This is deceptive, for even as a squire he has become remarkable dangerous with the morning star he so dearly adores.

The last son of a last son, Jasper always felt a desperate need to stand out in order to prevent his all to inevitable fade into irrelevance. He would never be king, nor crown prince, he would never hold Blackfyre or Dark Sister, even if they still lived he would not mount a dragon. So, the young dragon set out to make his own way. Setting himself apart from his brothers and kin he took up a morning star, a flashy weapon in and of itself, rather than simple sword. His personality is that of a young, naive boy, craving to be more than he is.

## History

Born a thin and squalling babe, Jasper Targaryen was the last of Valerion's sons, and perhaps the one imagined to be destined for the least. In the earliest years of his life Jasper was near constantly ill, battling through one bout of childhood sickness only to fall with another. Maesters feared for his life, and his family lamented what they thought would be his impending death. However Jasper surprised them all by simply refusing to pass on, and by the age of nine his health had finally found him.

Perhaps keen to make up for lost time, Jasper became a terror around the Red Keep, constantly full of energy and always up to some form of mischief, the new concern became if he could be controlled. He could, as one Knight, Ser Pate of Riverrun, soon discovered. The boy loved to fight.

Putting Jasper into the yard gave him an outlet for his energy and his skill with the morning star which grew ever greater over the years filled his head with ideas of grandeur. Of white cloaks, dragons, and crowns. However eventually the boy was sent to squire, not with his longtime teacher, but for his own brother Viserys, far away in the Vale. To be blunt, the boy was not pleased. Angry with his father, the king, and whoever else he held responsible, the young squire raged for a day before the old Knight reminded him of his duty sternly, and so he consented.

Now, Jasper accompanies his brother, wherever he may go.

Vayon Burley

Ravella Burley

Boremund Burley

**Vayon Burley** is the Chieftain of the Northern Mountains and the Chief of House Burley.

## Appearance and Character

The Burley is a large figure, standing at six foot six, often towers over nearly all who cross his path. Much like his brother, Vayon has long brown hair that reaches just below his shoulders and a beard to make.

Vayon is a joyous, gods fearing, honest man, one who takes bonds and pacts made before the Gods to heart. In that regard his faith aids guide his moral compass, often steering him into doing what he considers the right thing.
Though even the most god-fearing of men can at times do wrong.

Vayon can at times be regarded as a temperamental giant whose devotion to the Gods causes him to do things that one might frown upon.

But the Gods are not all that push him. Being the Chief of House Burley has taken quite a toll on the young man, leaving him with a cynical world view, one in which he questions why his 'fellow' Northmen would the poor clans of the Northern Mountains in such a horrible state, considering just how wealthy houses such as Starks and Manderly are.

It's left quite a bad taste in his mouth, especially as his fellow Clansmen often come to him for aid, be it with food or other things.

## History

### Childhood

Born in 70 AC to Hother Burley and Lady Lyra Umber in the middle of 'The Winter of a Hundred Kings', much of Vayons early years were spent hiding away from the frosty winter that sat upon the valley they called home.

During that time, there were countless deaths and it seemed as though much of the Clansmen who inhabited the mountains where slowly dying off in the cold, the few who did get the chance to flee to Winter Tower before the winter truly settled where thankfully spared by the horrid state the snow and cold left upon the mountainside.

Unfortunately the Burley children were not spared, their father and mother stayed with their people and raised them for half a decade through the latter portion of the winter.

While Vayon was far too young to truly understand just what was going on around him, he still recalls some of his first memories watching on as members of his clan perished in the cold,while his fellow Northmen, as wealthy as powerful as they claimed to be, provided no aid.

Siege of Longbow Hall

The **Siege of Longbow Hall** is a battle between Houses Waynwood and Hunter following the desertion of Yohn Hunter. Lord Hunter himself was not at the siege as had been killed two weeks earlier at the Bloody Gate.

## Prelude

### Death of Lord Corbray and Desertion

Following a failed poisoning on Arryn knight Jasper Arryn Lord Lucion Corbray was accused of the posioning and arrested. He was sentenced to be sent to the Wall and denied a Trial By Combat. Before he could be sent however he was killed by Jasper Arryn, who took his head and his Valyrian Steel sword.

Seeing this act as something they could not forgive Lord Yohn Hunter and Lord Horton Belmore deserted the Vale army and fled north. They swore vengence against Jasper Arryn and to defend the rights of Ysilla Arryn as heir to the Vale. Together they fled north hoping to gain an army and attack Lord Gunthor Arryn.

## The Battle

House Waynwood launched several assaults on the walls of Longbow Hall only to be forced back each time.
Valena Celtigar

**Valena Celtigar** is the eldest niece of Lord Balon Celtigar, and was his presumptive heir prior to the birth of his first legitimate child in 94 AC.

## Biography

Valena was the first of three daughters born to Damon Celtigar, who was the heir to Claw Isle prior to his untimely death in 86 AC. Her grandfather was instead succeeded by his second son, Balon, who remained unwed well into his thirties and several years into his rule. Fearing that he would not produce legitimate children of his own, Lord Balon groomed Valena for the possibility of succession.

With natural charm and a sharp mind, the adolescent Valena quickly proved qualified for her tentative position as the heir. In addition to a thorough education at home, she was allowed to join her lord uncle on his many visits to King's Landing, where she fared well among her more prestigious peers.

During these visits she was privileged to earn the acquaintance of Prince Aegon Targaryen, and the two became romantically involved by 96 AC. Their affair decisively came to an end within two years, and she has since spent the majority of her time on Claw Isle.

Whatever resentment she may have for her cousin’s usurpation of her inheritance remains unspoken; Valena remains close with her uncle Balon, who she regards almost as a father figure. During his frequent absences she serves as Claw Isle’s de facto regent, though in practice she seldom questions the wisdom of the castle’s counselors.

Despite her potential, Valena has no grand ambitions for herself - but neither is she content to remain a passive participant in the world around her. This manifested first through the reignition of her relationship with Prince Aegon following the funeral of Balerion the Black Dread -- a brief and supposedly final coupling which resulted in Valena's unexpected pregnancy. Despite the prince's entreaties, the king refused to allow his cousin to marry Valena, citing the responsibility of a prince of the blood to secure for himself a marriage which would bring with it political advantages, rather than the legitimization of one bastard. Unwilling to abandon Valena, Prince Aegon arranged for her to stay in King's Landing until she gave birth, promising to be by her side when the time came.

Introduction

## History

### Age of Heroes

As the story goes, Gilbert imparted his knowledge to the native men of the Arbor, so they might use the lush grapes of their island in the making of sweet wines.

### The Gardener Kings

During the early centuries of disunity amongst the petty kings of the Reach, the Arbor was prey to the Ironborn like much of the Western coast of Westeros. Though they were the southern border of the Ironborn's reach, the people of the Arbor still suffered from their sudden and unprovoked raids. But as the power of the Gardener kings grew, the influence of the Ironborn was less felt.

Kingdom of the Arbor remained independent longer than all but one of the other ancient kingdoms within the Reach's eventual domain. But before then, the Arbor thrived as an idyllic isle of sun, bounty, and wine, especially under the peaceful reign of Garth Goldenhand. The last King of the Arbor was lost at sea and his cousin, King Meryn III Gardener, annexed the isle, bringing the Arbor into the Kingdom of the Reach at last.

### The Andals

After the Andal warlords began invading other parts of Westeros with their longships, the Redwynes built more ships themselves and, along with Lord Hightower, protected the Reach from Andal naval attacks. Eventually the Andals assimilated in the Arbor as they did the rest of the Reach through the non-violent strategy of the Three Sage Kings. In time the difference between First Men and Andal was indistinguishable.
Qhorys (Red Priest)

Qhorys is a red priest who lives in Ghost Hill and serves Lady Ashlynn Toland as an advisor.

## Appearance and Character

Were it not for the red tunic that he wears almost daily, Qhorys would be an unremarkable man with long, disheveled brown hair; a beard that he hardly ever trims, and blue eyes. His expression is almost always serious, and he is never far from Lady Ashlynn, someone who he seems to respect a lot.

## History

### Early Life

Qhorys was born in Volantis to a poor family of fishermen who, like many poor families in the area, sold him to the red temple in order to pay for food for his siblings. He grew up learning about R’hllor with other children, but unlike the others he did not take the teachings very seriously. Seeing him as a burden, rather than as a valuable member of the temple, Qhorys was usually sent to run errands, or to proselytize away from Volantis.

In most of his journeys, Qhorys did little to spread his god's gospel. He'd travel, get drunk and fail to be taken seriously, before moving out somewhere else. Eventually his journey took him to Ghost Hill, where after a short conversation with Lady Ashlynn he agreed to stay and teach her about his god.

### Recent Events

Ever since he arrived at Ghost Hill, Qhorys has started to take his duties as a priest seriously. And, while he often disagrees with Lady Ashlynn, he seems to always accept her decisions, even when they go against the teachings of his god.

## It is the 98th year after Aegon's Conquest, and the end of an era...

In the Dragonpit of King's Landing, Balerion the Black Dread - the monstrous dragon who bore Gaemon the Glorious to Dragonstone before the Doom of Valyria, and whose fires forged Aegon Targaryen's empire in Westeros - draws his final, labored breath. The Curse of Maegor the Cruel, as the superstitious and dramatic call the sickness that has brought the Targaryen dragons to extinction, has claimed its final victim. From the Red Keep on Aegon's High Hill, the king - in whose veins flows the blood of the Conqueror and the Cruel alike - mourns the death of his dragon. Yet the bells toll a dirge for the realm as well as the beast that helped forge seven kingdoms into one.

In the wake of Maegor's reign, and beneath the shadow of the affliction that came with it's end, the Targaryens' empire fragments. Dorne, ever-proud and independent, remains unconquered as it has since the days of Nymeria of the Rhoyne. In the icy North, the Starks of Winterfell rule as the Kings of Winter, having claimed their independence in the face of southron scorn. The Ironborn, too, tread their own path: in a tradition stretching back millennia, the Kingsmoot has crowned a new King of Iron to rule over both rock and salt, and to strike fear into the hearts of those who dwell where the sea can be heard.

Selysse Mallister

Lady Selysse is the wife of Warryn Mallister and Lady of Seagard. She is the mother of Osbert, the current heir of House Mallister, and Myra.

Selysse is a graceful and slender woman. Her hair is of a dark brown. She lacks any physical special feature that contrasts her from many women her age except for her deep blue eyes that are described by many as comforting and caring.

The word most used to describe her is "serene" as she is always seen as a conciliator of sorts, using her melodic voice when needed to defuse arguments around her. She is also known as witty, as she is frequently seen with a book in hands.

A proud mother and faithful wife, she is a pious woman and seen as a blessing by those around her, lacking vices, malice or bad intentions.
Vickon Harlaw

Vickon Harlaw is the current head of House Harlaw and Lord of Harlaw Hall. He has one child, a daughter by the name of Amyra Harlaw, who serves as his heir.

## Appearance and Character

Vickon is very fit for his age, in his youth he was a warrior in use youth, and his buff build and lost eye prove it. Despite being only 51 years old, Vickon has a full head of white hair, most likely due to the intense stress he has been under over the years.

Vickon is known to keep himself secluded, he is a cold man who cares little for others, except for his wife and daughter, whom he loves and cherishes. After sustaining an injury to his left eye, Vickon grew wise, learning of military strategy and statesmanship, no longer lusting after battle.

## History

### Early Life

Vickon grew up in turbulent times, born only a year after the Drumms and Goodbrothers seized power. Vickon's father Aeron sided with the rebels to great avail, successfully aiding the Drumms in seizing the Iron Isles. Vickon grew only to know the political intrigue of the Islands, something he always hated, something he always feared.

### Ironborn Civil War

Three years prior to the conflict, Vickon had lost his left eye in a reaving, so when the conflict broke out, he let his brother Lucas lead the Harlaw forces. During the conflict, it looked as though the Grejoys would win, resulting in Lucas turning on the Drumms and aiding the Grejoy rebellion. A dishonourable move, Lucas would never live it down, though House Harlaw may not have lived without it.

### Harlaw Hall

Following the death of his father Aeron, Vickon became Lord of Harlaw Hall. In 103AC, Vickon had his firstborn child, named Harras, who died in infancy only seven moons later. In 109AC, Vickon had a daughter, named Amyra, and after years of trying to produce another child, Vickon gave up on wanting a male heir, instead grooming his daughter for the role of Lord of Harlaw Hall.

Their relationship was solid until Vickon insisted Amyra marry one of her suitors, an argument ensued and Amyra left to Essos in self-imposed exile. After three years she returned to Harlaw Hall where the two reconciled, becoming very close once again, with neither caring about who Amyra ends up with.

The Battle at Nagga's Hill

Following Sigrun Blacktyde's victory at the Kingsmoot and her decleration as the new Queen of the Iron Islands Lord Reaver Florian Greyjoy gathered his allies and tried to restore order by force. The **Ironborn Battle for the Isles** was a one sided battle that saw both Lord Greyjoy and Orkwood killed and Sigrun as the indisputable Queen of the Iron Islands.
Vayon Reed

**Vayon Reed** is the eldest child of Farlan Reed and Mya Shett. He was born in the 69th year after Aegon's Conquest. **Vayon** is the head of the cadet house Reed of Runestone. Currently, he enjoys the position of steward at Runestone, the keep where he was born and raised. He is a veteran of the Rosegold Rebellion where he was knighted.

## Appearance and Character

**Vayon Reed** is a tiny man, betraying his crannogman decent, but is also gifted with a sturdy build. His blonde hair and blue eyes accentuate the assimilation into life in the Vale that his family has gone through since their relocation.

None can say **Vayon** is not without his sins, he can be gluttonous, wroth, and proud. Behind all that is a kind man at heart who will discourage risk. He also can tend to seem insouciant at times and discreet in his business. However, in spite of his flaws, there are few better at managing the coffers of a household than he is.

## History

### Early Life

**Vayon** was borne in Runestone to Farlan Reed and Mya Shett. He was born in the 9th moon of 69 AC and was the couple's first child. Two years later they would add another son to their family, Vayon's brother, Osric Reed.

The eldest of the Reed boys took to his numbers as he grew. Training in the yard seldom excited him, in fact, it repulsed him. He was a tiny man and a crannogman. There was plenty of reason to want to avoid the other boys in the yard, he got enough insult when he wasn't training. So rather than train, whenever possible, he spent his time studying. **Vayon** studied his numbers, geography, lineages, and legends. Anything you could find in a book **Vayon** had likely read.

### Rosegold Rebellion

Despite not being one to take to the sword and practice yard, **Vayon** was called upon in the Rosegold Rebellion. He marched alongside his father and brother. He proved an able fighter even with his lack of training as a child. After the Battle of King's Landing, **Vayon** found himself knighted alongside Osric. While that was satisfying it was also bittersweet. His father, Farlan, had perished in the fighting. **Vayon** was abruptly thrust into the position of patriarch of his family.

### Recent Events

**Vayon Reed** was appointed as Steward of Runestone based on his outstanding knowledge of coin and management. He has dedicated himself to his work and will seldom leave the keep unless ordered by Lord Royce.

Valyrian Steel and Other Weapons

Valyrian steel, possibly forged with dragons, was manufactured in the Valyrian Freehold of old. Valyrian steel blades are lighter, stronger, and sharper than even the best castle-forged steel. The blades feature distinctive rippled patterns, the mark of steel that has been folded back on itself many thousands of times. There may be thousands of Valyrian steel blades remaining in the world, but in Westeros there are only 227 such weapons according to Archmaester Thurgood's Inventories, some of which have since been lost or have disappeared from recorded history. Most Valyrian steel blades in Westeros are treasured heirlooms of noble houses, each with its own name and storied history, and even impoverished lesser houses are unwilling to give them up.

Valyrian steel was always costly, but it became considerably more so when there was no more Valyria, the secret of its making lost with the Doom. Only the greatest weapon smiths can reforge swords from existing Valyrian steel, making those remaining weapons highly treasured and extremely rare. The blacksmiths of Qohor claim to know the magics for reforging Valyrian steel without losing its strength or unsurpassed ability to hold an edge.

**The Battle of Dosk** was the first and only major battle of the White Rose Rebellion, and saw the only field army of the rebels crushed by a well-organized, well-disciplined, and vastly numerically superior loyalist force.

## Prelude

News of the treason of Gareth Tyrell reached King's Landing in the 8th Moon of 98 AC, and King Viserys I immediately sent out the call to all loyalist Reach houses to mobilized forces and crush the nascent rebellion. The various lords, great and small, of the Northmarch were the first to answer this call, swiftly mustering over 10,000 troops for battle, with many more streaming in each day.

Led by highly capable commanders, they set out southward towards Highgarden early in the 9th Moon of 98 AC, intending to force the castle's surrender and initiate a siege if need be. For Lord Rickard Rowan, the conflict was personal: it was his kin that had been slain during Gareth Tyrell's uprising, and so the lord of Goldengrove personally led the punitive expedition.

## The Battle

Still a ways north of Highgarden, the Northmarcher force came across and captured or killed several White Rose scouts. Believing these forces to be outriders for a larger one, the loyalists arrayed for battle. When Ser Gareth's forces crested a nearby ridge, they saw before them an army more than four times their size flying banners from over a dozen houses.

Whether driven by bravery or madness will never be known, but Ser Gareth ordered a frontal charge at the enemy forces, perhaps knowing that attempting to retreat to Highgarden would simply see his forces run down by the enemy horse, which were nearly as numerous as his own infantry. The suicidal rebel charge was raked with arrows and crossbow fire as they approached, before the loyalist van - led by Lord Lyman Crane - charged in to finish the job. During either the initial charge or the melee that followed, Ser Gareth was killed and his forces quickly disintegrated.

In all, the sole major "battle" of the White Rose Rebellion lasted less than an hour and saw nearly every rebel soldier and officer under arms killed, injured, or captured. Although pockets of political (if not military) resistance would hold out for a few months yet, the military phase of the White Rose Rebellion effectively began and ended on the field at Dosk.
Rufus Bolling

Stormlands

Rufus Bolling is the only son of Gerrald Bolling and Merelyn Meadows. He is a capable swordmaster and is much more interested in warcraft and swordplay than his father's attempts at teaching him rulership. He has one sister named, Jocelyn.

## Appearance and Character

Rufus has been remarked as looking quite similar to how his father looked in his youth. His hair is brown and bushy, and his eyes glisten a similar colour. He also keeps a modest amount of hair upon his chin but attempts to keep it well under control.

Rufus is a wayward and rowdy man, at least in comparison to his father. He does not share his father's content and humble attitude and is far more ambitious and martially focused. He has remained unmarried as his father believes he will be happiest finding a wife on his own, and Rufus has more passion for his swordplay than finding himself a wife.

## History

Rufus Bolling was born to Gerrald Bolling and Merelyn Meadows in 76 AC, his mother died a few weeks later of complications.

Rufus and his father were never as close as Gerrald Bolling would have preferred. As hard as he tried, memories of Merelyn always served as a wedge between them. Despite this, Rufus' father taught him much of the histories of Westeros and the Bolling house, and Rufus found a great interest there. Though he is no scholar like his father, Rufus still fosters an interest in the histories of warcraft and battle.

Most of Rufus’ education, especially into his adolescence, was guided by his father who tried to his best ability to foster a capable leader and steward of Oldwood. Of course, Rufus took little interest in most of what his father tried to teach him, and only truly learned little of it. Though his father’s lessons weren’t completely forgotten, Rufus found especial skill and interest in the duelling lessons his father taught him in a precursor to his squireship.

Rufus was then taken into his father’s service as a knight, where, though lessons of stewardship and diplomacy were still common, Rufus found a talent in his swordplay and martial activities.

Rufus would serve his father in both the Rosegold Rebellion and the Year of Skulls and Daggers for the latter part of his squireship before his knighting at the prime young age of 18. It was at this point in his life that Rufus received about the most autonomy from his father he had ever experience, an autonomy he has lavished in and enjoyed for his recent years.
