Ser Conor Clegane is the son of the late Brannon Clegane, who died during the Siege of Casterly Rock. After also participating in the same battle some three years ago, Conor was mutilated beyond description and lost the rest of his family. Since then he has taken a vow of silence, and serves loyally under House Lannister. He has few friends in this world, but one of them is Joffrey Lannister, Lionsteel.

## History

Before the Siege of Casterly Rock, Conor lived a rather mundane life. Westeros was still well within its last golden age, the lands were peaceful and there was much to laugh about. Especially for those that served lord Tywald. To this, Conor is eternally grateful. For this and the times that came from them, the memories he made with his late father and the many members of his family. All of his early life, Conor was trained to fight. To serve his superiors, protect his people, and more. All of it seemed like such a lie whenever the Reyne Massacre happened.

Conor and his father were there when the Reynes and Tarbecks were killed. Conor was just shy of 16, the age of adulthood within Westeros. His family had been put on short notice to mobilize to Castamere, where they were to neutralize the Reynes and Tarbecks who were conspiring against Tywald in the lord's own words. With their superior forces and with the element of surprise with them, they took Castamere by storm and slaughtered almost all the Reynes present. The experience felt off to Conor, although he wasn't allowed to participate in the killing he still felt wrong. The Reynes were fellow Westermen just as Tywald and Conor were, but for reasons beyond them they were supposed to just kill them all? Yet, he was supposed to serve his lord without question: And he did.

The resulting blowback was fierce, and more than half of the Westerlands retreated back to their holds following the Reyne Massacre. The other lords had served their purpose, they had upheld their vows but many still did not agree with what was done that day. For this, they let the Iron Throne mount its army and come through the Westerlands without so much as a defense to their lord whom they had served for all their lives.

Brannon was different though, and thusly, so was his son. Together they rode back to Casterly Rock and were instrumental in setting up the defenses so that Tywald and his men could last for years. Unbenknownst to the both of them, one of the first things would happen was that they would be sabotaged from within the hold. An unknown assailant that betrayed the Westerlands destroying their food reserves. Within a matter of two months, the defending army was already starving from within their hold. In a brazen display of passion, Tywald and his men mounted their forces together and prepared for a final attack. Knowing it might've been their last day together, Brannon let Conor come with him since the boy's 16th Name Day had passed.

It was on the battlefield that Conor truly became a man. It was the first time that he had to fight people to death. His inexperience at its worst truly showed when his father Brannon was killed before him. Seeing the first of his horrors come to life, Conor went insane with rage and started to slaughter every man before him. His sheer strength alone was what willed him through the fight, until he caught the attention of Rogar Baratheon. The unrivalled stag fought with such skill and unmatched dexterity that it caught the maddened giant by surprise. Through sheer experience, Rogar outmaneuvered every move that Conor gave and eventually a decisive blow was struck. It was done with such force that Conor's jaw was torn clean off of his mouth. Conor continued to fight with vigor for hours until finally succumbing to his injuries. Out of mercy, he wasn't killed and treated back at Casterly Rock's infirmary. It was there that he indirectly met Lancel Lannister, who saw the extent of Conor's injuries and saw how terribly the Westerlands had lost.

It was some months before Conor truly recovered, something which he never fully healed from. When he woke up, he was already made lord of the Clegane's and Tywald had been executed for his crimes. He never had the chance to speak, and every day he would suffer from the pain of his injuries. It wasn't until a year later when he sought Grand Maester Anselle that he was given a unique prosthetic to replace his jaw that had been mostly lost in his fight with Rogar.
