Lucimore Serrett is Lord of Silverhill and the head of House Serrett. He is the second son of Bennarion Serrett (deceased) and Alys Serrett nee Greenfield, and is their fourth child.

He goes by "Luc" (pronounced "Luke"), as he dislikes his birth name.

Lucimore is unmarried.

## Appearance

Luc, alone among his siblings, inherited his mother's dark hair and eyes, rather than his father's blonde hair and blue eyes. He is bearded, but keeps it neat and short. His hair is shoulder length, and dark brown. He has a strong jaw, much like his father. Like his father, he is tall, though not as tall as his older brother, Amory, was.

Luc is a man in good health and excellent physical condition. His upbringing as a squire and knight has conditioned his body to be durable and strong. He is of muscular build, and is surprisingly flexible and quick.

He bears some scars from his martial upbringing, as well as from his role in the Battle of Lions, but most are hidden by clothing.

He is a serious man, and is prone to scowling.

## History

### Early Life and Tutelage at Casterly Rock

Lucimore Serrett was born in the 4th Moon of 174 AC to Lord Bennarion Serrett and his wife Alys. He was the fourth of Bennarion's children, and the second son. He was born strong and healthy, a trait that he would build upon as he grew up.

Lucimore took the nickname Luc early in his life, finding his full name "long, ugly, and pretentious." He spent much of his early years tagging along behind his older siblings Amory, Gwyneth, and Elia. Luc was particularly fond of Elia, as she was only three years his senior, and she took greater interest in him than his other siblings. He proved to be a tough child, as his boyhood adventures often found him enduring hurts that would dissuade other children. But scraped knees and cuts were no bother to Luc; he would simply press on with undeterred delight.

In 177 AC, Luc's younger sister Janna was born. The newest Serrett became a permanent member of the Luc's and Elia's play group, delighted as they were to have a new sibling. The three were inseperable, and their games often caused all manner of trouble around the keep.

in 183 AC, Lord Bennarion began to seek a foster home for his younger son, seeing potential for his son in the martial arts. He found his opportunity in the newly knighted Ser Stafford Lannister, as well as a chance to strengthen the ties between his house and that of his overlord. At nine years old, Luc was sent to Casterly Rock to become a page to Ser Stafford.

Luc found he liked Ser Stafford, who treated him well and gave him plenty to do. He performed his duties with gusto, wanting to prove a good servant to his master. His efforts did not go unnoticed - when his former squire was knighted in 186 AC, Ser Stafford chose Luc as his new squire. Now, instead of simple page's work, Stafford set to teaching the boy the martial skills of a knight. Luc proved competent enough with the sword and bow, but the boy was soon revealed to be a natural with polearm weapons. Stafford began devoting much of Luc's training to the study of the glaive, a weapon the boy proved most comfortable with.

During his years at Casterly Rock, Luc also formed friendships with the children of Martyn Lannister.Jeanne, though several years his elder, was particularly enjoyable company.

### The Blackwater Rebellion

In 186 AC, the same year Luc was made squire, civil war broke out across the kingdom, as the Dragons of House Targaryen battled for dominion of the realm. Lord Lannister raised his banners for King Daeron and sent his troops forth to battle the rebels in his lands. Ser Stafford, as a knight of House Lannister, rode with the host, and Luc rode at his side.

Luc saw his first battle as Lannister and rebel forces clashed outside of Lannisport. Luc showed his mettle here, staying collected under pressure, and performing his master's commands faithfully. Though still young, he fought hard; in the end, he survived the chaos of the bloody battle.

Ser Stafford and Luc would go on to fight in many other battles of the Rebellion. The year of conflict transformed Luc from a green boy into a tough young man. When at last Aegon was defeated and his forces subdued, Luc returned with the victorious Lannisters to Casterly Rock, where he continued his training.

### Knighthood

Luc's life at Casterly Rock continued in the same manner for many years. He became an ever more skilled fighter, eventually regarded a master with the glaive by all at the Rock. He also took time during those years to master the dagger as well, realizing that his glaive would be less effective when the fighting became very close.

Finally, in 193 AC, Ser Stafford believed Luc to be ready for the next step. At 19 years old, Luc was knighted in the sight of the Seven by his mentor. Now a man grown, he returned home to Silverhill, to put his new skills to use for his family. Still, he would remain close friends with the Lannisters, and would visit Casterly Rock many times over the years.

### The Gold Serretts and Grey Serretts

In 196 AC, Damon Lannister began a rebellion against his brother Martyn, feeling spurned that he was not his brother's heir. The "Grey Lion", as many took to calling him, sought to enlist Lord Bennarion Serrett to his cause, but the Peacock steadfastly refused.

Amory Serrett, however, was more intrigued by the offer. Waiting until the moment was right, he plotted to overthrow his father and put House Serrett behind the Grey Lions. His moment came in 197 AC, as Damon began to feel the pressure from the Gold Lions. Amory killed his father, seizing control of House Serrett, and began to marshal their forces for war.

His daughter, Alyssa, was horrified by her father's actions. Secretly, she sent a raven to Casterly Rock, where her uncle Luc was visiting, telling him of Amory's treachery. Luc rushed back, going to the stronghold of House Hamell, bannermen to House Serrett. Telling Lord Hamell of Amory's misdeed, he secured the aid of his father's bannerman in bringing the new Lord Serrett to justice. They sent riders to every village and settlement of the Serrett lands, calling on all loyal men to join them in subduing Amory. Their call met with fair success, and hundreds rallied to Hamell lands, ready to fight for vengeance.

Amory was not content to wait. Word had reached him of the struggles of the Grey Lions, particularly the Crakehalls, who were fleeing south from their enemies. Seeking to join them and bolster Damon's strength in the south, he marched west with 1300 men, calling themselves the Grey Serretts, seeking to cross the river and aid his would-be allies.

Alyssa, however, interfered again. Adept at mimicking handwriting, she sent a message in Luc's script in the same direction as her father's forces; the message insinuated that Luc was just behind Amory, preparing to attack from the rear. Amory fell for the ruse, halting and digging in his forces. Luc, with his 700 loyal men, or Gold Serretts, as well as Lord Hamell and his 250, marched through the night, passing Amory and crossing the river. When Amory pressed on the next day, he found the far bank of the river held against him by his younger brother.

#### The Battle of the Banks

Despite being outnumbered, Luc had managed to seize a strong position on the battlefield. Amory would have to cross to meet up with his allies; and to cross, he would have to defeat Luc and his men. Sounding the attack, Amory and the Grey Serretts began fording the river, eager to crush the defenders waiting.

Luc, however, used the river to his advantage. The Grey Serretts were forced to fight in the fords, and suffered from lack of mobility and cohesion as a result. The Gold Serretts simply kept their hold upon the banks, and the Greys fell before them like flies. This strategy effectively negated Amory's superior numbers. Though the battle was long and hard, Luc and his men prevailed. The clash finally ended when Amory and Luc met on the battlefield. Their duel was vicious, each man skilled and strong, but in the end, Luc struck down his brother, killing him with a mortal blow of his glaive.

The Battle of the Banks, as it would later be called, was over. The remaining Greys threw down their weapons, surrendering. Luc spent the next moon restoring order and meting out judgement. When House Crakehall called for aid, Luc sent only a short reply: "Fuck off."

When at last Damon Lannister was defeated and the Battle of Lions ended, Luc officially took his brother's place as Lord Serrett of Silverhill.

### Lordship

Luc spent much of the next few years restoring order and peace to his broken lands. Opportunistic bandits had to be put down, taxes put in place, and outspoken Grey-sympathizers dealt with, but eventually Silverhill and its attending lands found a measure of peace. Alyssa, for her role in helping stop her father's plots, was protected from any suspicion of guilt of conspiracy. She was also granted the full inheritance left her by her father, which she used to open a tavern in the village near Silverhill. Luc saw she had a knack for business, and so put her in charge of House Serrett's finances.
