Frostfangs

The **Frostfangs** are a mountain range in the far north of the continent of Westeros, beyond the Wall and north of the Seven Kingdoms.

While formed of harsh terrain, it is home to two distinct wildling clans.

## Geography

The Frostfangs lie north of the Wall, just northwest of the Shadow Tower, separating the Lands of Always Winter to their west and the haunted forest to their east. Its southern peaks and foothills transition into the northern mountains, which are part of the North within the Seven Kingdoms. One of the largest mountains in the Frostfangs is called Forktop by the Night's Watch.

The easiest way into the Frostfangs is to follow the Milkwater river to its source, but this path is very visible from the Fist of the First Men. Other paths into the Frostfangs include the Giant's Stair and the Skirling Pass, if it is clear.

The Frostfangs are a cruel and inhospitable wilderness of stone and ice, jagged peaks eternally covered in snow. However, the Frostfangs conceal a diverse series of wonders. Icy waterfalls plunge over sheer stone cliffs, mountain meadows are filled with grass and wildflowers, there are ravines so deep and black they seem to go all the way to hell, and bridges of natural stone span distances with only the sky to either side.

It has been suggested that hidden valleys exist in the Frostfangs, valleys that sustain small numbers of people yet not even free folk dare live in the Frostfangs during the winter. Instead, mountain clans take shelter in great areas that run beneath the rock; a web of tunnels and caverns that provide safety from the harsh winter. The lower reaches of the Milkwater run in small streams through these caves, providing a source of freshwater for the clans during intense snowstorms when the outside is too hazardous to venture out.

## Mountain Clans

The Frostfangs are home to two large Wildling Clans, both of which have lived in the mountain for centuries. Both clans originally roamed the entire mountain range; never remaining in one area for too long. This close cohabitation led to many bouts of conflict between the two groups that, at one point, almost concluded with the extinction of one clan.

After this time, known as 'The Emptiness' on account of the many caverns left uninhabited, the Milkwater Divide was formed. This split the mountains into two territories: the area north of the Milkwater river, which was given to the clan of the Frostfang Caverns; and the area to the south, given to the roaming clan of the mountainside.

At present, the northern clan is led by Srakmar, while the southern is led by Sigrid the Unnamed.
Ballabar

### The Conquest

Lorimas and John Mudd were two brothers in the Golden Company during Aegon VI's conquest on Westeros. They played a crucial role in leading troops with Aegon to the Reach. After celebrating many victories over the Ironborn, Aegon landed them in Oldstones. Despite the fertile and rich land, the Mudds were given the least amount of gold for their efforts and could not afford to build a proper keep until later.

### War of Lords Scorned

House Mudd was the only Golden Company house to not choose a side in the affair, choosing instead to continue building Oldstones. After the war was done, they enjoyed a huge influx of smallfolk and made a huge profit to fill the void Harrenhal had left when they stopped farming. This allowed them to finish their keep over the ruins of the old castle.

The Masseys broke away from House Durrandon during the reign of King Durwald the Fat, however. The Masseys were one of the many houses which historically claimed the mouth of the Blackwater Rush.

The Masseys returned to the dominion of Storm's End when the Storm King Qarlton II took Stonedance after besieging the castle for a year and slaying King Josua Massey. Not even two years later, however, Josua's daughter married the Andal warlord Togarion Bar Emmon, who expelled Qarlton's men from Stonedance and replaced them with Josua's son. The Andals eventually made peace and intermarried with the Durrandons, however.

Prior to the War of Conquest, House Massey was sworn to House Durrendon of Storm's End but had closer ties to House Targaryen of nearbyDragonstone. When Aegon the Conqueror launched his invasion of Westeros, the Masseys supported him instead of the Storm King, Argilac the Arrogant. The master of laws for King Aegon I was Triston Massey. With the creation of the crownlands after the Conquest, the Masseys became sworn to the Targaryens of Aegon's new capital, King's Landing, instead of House Baratheon of Storm's End, who had replaced the Durrandons.

Lord Gormon Massey was killed attempting to tame Vermithor on Dragonstone during the Dance of the Dragons.

When Lord Bloodraven marched on Whitewalls to quash the Second Blackfyre Rebellion, among the houses who came in support was House Massey.

Black Walder would then enter the Second War of Conquest, fighting against Edmure Tully and Harry Stickland who were attempting to restore House Tully to Riverrun.

Walder would score many initial victories against the Tullys and the Golden Company, pushing them out of Riverrun and pursuing them through the Riverlands. It was not until Aegon VI Targaryen returned from his War in the Reach that aid was sent to the Riverlands. Aegon and Walder would meet in the fierce Second Battle of the Whispering Woods in which Aegon scored a decisive victory and captured Black Walder.

In exchange for a vow of fealty from the Twins and departing Riverrun, Black Walder was returned to House Frey and promptly executed on the basis of Kinslaying.
Helaena Flowers

## Biography

Born in the Arbor to Saera Redwyne nine months after the Redwyne scion slept with Maegor Targaryen during a visit he paid to the seat of House Redwyne. Her mother was sent off to the Silent Sisters after giving birth to Helaena, but was allowed to name her daughter beforehand. Was sent off to live with her father at Harrenhal, growing up in the shadow of an unpredictable and mercurial father who had a tendency to bring priests of various gods to the castle and let them set up shop there. She gravitated toward the priests of R’hllor her father let stay there, enamored of their doctrine as only a young girl could be, and this would eventually be the deciding factor in her trip to Asshai a few years down the road.

Helaena travelled to Asshai with a group of bodyguards her father sent with her to study at the temple of R’hllor that was there, as well as study the archives of lore that were kept within the city, making her a veritable font of mystic lore. Returned to Harrenhal with the remainder of the bodyguards sent with her, two of them having been imprisoned for engaging in tavern fights as well as severely injuring a few while in Asshai. Helaena began to exhibit interest in her half-brother Aegon, as well as beginning to set up a network of spies across Westeros by being kind to the smallfolk and gaining their trust.

She discovered what happened to her mother in 379 AC from a spy she planted in the Arbor and conjured up a plan of revenge, giving the spy instructions to burn down the orchards and to come up with a plausible reason for the burning that didn't implicate her if the spy got caught. The plan went well until a servant noticed the smell of smoke and put the fire out before it could spread beyond two of the vineyards, the spy remaining active and uncaught, despite the minor setback.

Elissa Forrester

Elissa Forrester is a Scion at Ironrath, the youngest sister of the current Lord.

## Appearance

Elissa is a fairly slender lady not too unusual for fifteen. She has long, dark brown hair that contrasts her pale skin, and her light blue eyes on a girlishly rounded face.

## History

Born the youngest of the Forrester children to Rickard Forrester and Jeyna Umber, Elissa has always looked up to her elder siblings, though she has none of her eldest brother's brashness. A lady since birth, she has lapped up all the teachings about court life, and has always dreamed of her place there among the high lords and ladies. Because of this would often talk above her small years in an attempt to fit in, though she still had too much of a childhood innocence and naivety to fool anyone. As a child she would follow around her elders, and was underfoot more often than not. Mother, father, siblings and other guests alike would have to watch their feet to avoid small fingers and toes.

At seven years old Elissa was introduced to the sport of falconry; which she considered an appropriately ladylike sport. After spending years familiarizing herself with the techniques and equipment and using birds already in the family, she finally was able to select her own hatchling to raise. At ten years old, she would often be found spending countless hours with "Lady Alys", as she named her, trying to bond with the fledging bird. This was how, only a few months later, they realized that "Lady" Alys was actually a "Lord" Alys. Elissa was terribly disappointed, but the name had already stuck, and no other name seemed to fit. The bird had already become her close confidant and friend, and the two developed an inseparable bond.

As a young and fairly privileged child, Elissa did not have much experience with death. The fact that she had lost her father at such a young age has not helped either. She is still young, however, and has a lot to learn.

## Timeline

Blackmyre

Blackmyre is a small settlement in the Neck, inhabited by crannogmen loyal to House Reed, and in turn House Stark. It is the seat of House Blackmyre, who lead the inhabitants.

The current Lord is Tergon Blackmyre, given the traditional title of Phantom of the Myre.

## Location

Blackmyre is a small settlement with the Neck, the southernmost part of the North. It is situated close to the western headwaters of the Green Fork, which flows south past the Twins to form a third of the Trident.

Due to the difficult nature of the swamp and the lack of established roads in the Neck, bar the Kingsroad Causeway to the East, it is very difficult to locate, regardless of whether the seeker is friend or foe.

It is not unknown for the inhabitants to relocate entirely when threatened, reconstructing Blackmyre elsewhere.

## Layout

Due to the nature of its simple construction, the arrangement and organisation is continuously changing. Generally speaking, if a visitor was to find it, they may expect to see around ten housing huts, typically built on distinct crannogs, as well as a structure akin to that of a crude tavern, which doubles as the Great Feasting Hall of House Blackmyre. Mediocre to all but the smallest Houses, the Hall would probably fit tenfold within the Hall of a larger noble House.

Dotted throughout the settlement small huts are constructed for the preservation and storage of fish and other aquatic catches, more often than not by smoking and/or salting.

Stretches of wood connect many of the crannogs, forming a crude network of bridges and pathways.

## House Blackmyre

House Blackmyre has ruled the changing location of Blackmyre since stories of its origin began. Due to the lack of maesters in the Neck, oral history takes predominance and as such recounts of history quickly become diminished into myths and legends, facts forgotten or exaggerated depending on the storyteller. As such, with the exception of the generations remembered in living memory, not much is known for certain about the ruling House and its people.

The current Lord is Tergon Blackmyre, who became Lord after the death of Adrak Blackmyre, his father, in 376AC.
Crazy Crab (San Francisco Giants)

## Crazy Crab

The **Crazy Crab** was a mascot of the San Francisco Giants for the 1984 season. As opposed to other mascots, Crazy Crab was meant as an "anti-mascot", satirizing on the mascot craze that was going on at the time. Fans were encouraged to boo the mascot (played by actor Wayne Doba) and manager Frank Robinson appeared in a commercial with the crustacean where Robinson was restrained from attacking him. This encouragement may have worked too well, as Giants fans regularly threw various dangerous objects at Crazy Crab, including beer bottles and batteries, and Crazy Crab's suit had to be reinforced with a fiberglass shell for protection. The crab was so hated, players on both the Giants and even the opposition would throw rosin bags and other objects at the mascot. Doba sued the San Diego Padres after two of their players tackled him, causing injuries.

The mascot lasted only one year and the Giants would not have another mascot until Lou Seal in 1996. Crazy Crab has regained popularity in recent years. The crab returned for the last game at Candlestick Park that the Giants played in 1999, and a bobblehead was given away with its likeness in 2008 as the franchise celebrated its fiftieth anniversary in the Bay Area. On July 18, 2008, the Giants held a crazy crab promotion. There is even a website devoted to bringing back the Crazy Crab called Rehab The Crab and now a Crazy Crab sandwich at AT&T Park. In 2014, a 30 for 30 short about the character directed by Colin Hanks, appeared on ESPN.

She died in 312 AC of a sickness, three years after the conclusion of the War of the Rock.

House Lothston

House Lothston was a once thought extinct house that at one time held Harrenhal until its extinction. Most famously known for Mad Danielle Lothston, the House was relanded after Jon Lothston of the Golden Company returned.

## History

### The Conquest

Jon Lothston was one of the Golden Company's many officers during Aegon's Conquest of Westeros. He played a crucial role in the War in the Riverlands as a commander and was awarded land to the West of Harrenhal for their effort. Jon settled down on the land and built a new keep called Belfry Tower with a bell at the top.

### The War of Lords Scorned

In 330 AC, the Lothstons were among the many lords to side with Mycah Strickland during the ensuing war with the crown but later betrayed him. It is said that when Mycah's tired army approached from the South, the Lothstons rung their bell in warning to Lord Bracken, who had been holding Harrenhal. This action signaled Lord Bracken to shut the doors and leave Mycah out.

Following the war they made an effort to campaign for Harrenhal and threatened to spill blood with House Strong over it. Aegon would ignore both in favor of his son Maekar Targaryen.

### Founded

500 years ago, by the Valyrians

**Dragonstone** is the name of the island located at the entrance to Blackwater Bay and the castle thereon, which was shaped from stone to look like dragons. Dragonstone was the original seat of House Targaryen in Westeros, which had been colonized and fortified as the westernmost outpost of the Valyrian Freehold.

After the Targaryen conquest of the Seven Kingdoms, the island in the newly created crownlands served as the seat of their heir apparent, known as the Prince of Dragonstone. After Robert Baratheon overthrew the Targaryens, he gave the island to his brother Stannis, creating House Baratheon of Dragonstone. This house went extinct in the year 300AC, when Loras Tyrell took the castle, later giving it to the invading Aegon VI Targaryen. Since then the castle and island have resumed their original function of serving as the holdfast of the heir apparent to the Iron Throne.

He, like his brother, has not yet been knighted.
Harrenhal

House Lothson

House Strong

**Harrenhal**, the largest castle in the Seven Kingdoms, is the seat of House Targaryen of Harrenhal in the Riverlands, on the north shore of the Gods Eye lake. Since its burning by dragonfire in the War of Conquest, however, it has become a dark and ruinous place.

The castle's holdings are some of the richest in Westeros, claiming vast tracts of green fertile land which reach as far as the hills of House Wode near the crownlands. Harrentown is found near Harrenhal.

## The Castle

The castle has five towers of dizzying size, with equally monstrous curtain walls. The walls are incredibly thick and its rooms are built on a scale that would be more comfortable for giants than humans.

Harrenhal covers three times as much ground as Winterfell and its buildings are so much larger that they can scarcely be compared. Its stables can house a thousand horses, its godswood covers twenty acres, and its kitchens are as large as Winterfell's Great Hall.

However, much of Harrenhal has far gone into decay. The Whents use only the lower thirds of two of the five towers, letting the rest go to ruin, and many places in the castle have not been entered in decades. Bats infest the tops of some of the towers.

Many believe that the Others have been defeated at this point thanks to Brandon and Azor Ahai, but many others suggest that the Last Greenseer only delayed then, and that they will return again one day in the future.

House Greyjoy of Saltwater Sound

**House Greyjoy of Saltwater Sound** is a cadet branch of House Greyjoy of Pyke, founded by Victarion Greyjoy in the early years of the Second Era.

## History

During the Second War of Conquest Victarion Greyjoy led the fleet of Daenerys Targaryen against both the Crown and the Stormlands, breaking the royal fleet in the Battle of the Narrows and raiding all along the south-eastern coast. He burned, sacked, and pillaged a black swathe across the land, driving more lords and knights to Aegon VI's side, and away from Daenerys. When the Mother of Dragons was murdered in Dorne, Victarion took what ships remained to him and abandoned his erst-while allies in the Stormlands, setting off toward home.

Upon arrival in the Iron Islands the Iron Captain was met with a strange sight - his niece sat the Seastone Chair, his brother Euron slain in battle. The whole of the Isles bent the knee to Asha Greyjoy but in the eyes of Victarion, he was the rightful King.

The Isles did not see it the same, however. To the Ironborn Victarion had come back a stranger - tainted by the Red God in the form of the blackened twisted mass that was his arm, preaching further resistance and war to a region that had already suffered several major defeats. His attempts to usurp the Iron Crown would fail, one by one, and in the end he found no other recourse but to bend the knee to his niece, the sole surviving issue of her father the King.

Victarion would remain the Lord Captain of the Iron Fleet, siring sons and daughters both. In later years the Lady Asha would grant him and his descendants a keep on the south-western side of Pyke, soon named Saltwater Sound.

## Former Chief of the Frostfang Mountains

**Halvar 'the Frost Bear'** was the Chief of the Frostfang Mountains until his death by infection in 380 AC. He is succeeded by his eldest daughter, Sigrid.

## History

Halvar was born in 340 AC to Ivar 'Eagle Eye' and Olga. Proving himself a fierce warrior wielding his great mace, he soon became the Chief of the clan and earned the respect of his people.

For many years he led the clan successfully, maintaining their status north of the Wall as a fearsome pack, and was dubbed 'The Frost Bear'; noting his might in battle, as well as his ice-grey bristled beard.

He became father to his first daughter, Sigrid, in 361 AC. However, his wife Freja died after the birth. After years of grief, he fathered another daughter, Ylva, in 365 AC. Her mother is Asta, sister to Brandt 'The Sword'; a great warrior of the clan.

## Death

380 AC. Whilst on a hunting trip with two other clansmen, Halvar found the group surrounded by a pack of shadowcats. His two companions were killed there, but the Frost Bear managed to escape back to his clan alive, but having sustained grievous wounds, including one deep wound to his neck that left his throat visible.

Although the tribe's most accomplished healers attempted to cleanse the wounds, they became infected and, after a week or so, he succumbed to the infection.

## Recent Events

Halvar's daughter, and successor, Sigrid travelled across the Frozen Shore in order to give her father the 'warrior's burial' he always spoke of. She intends to cast him off to the ocean upon a burning raft.

Eyrie

## The Eyrie

**The Eyrie** is a castle in the Vale of Arryn, and the seat of House Arryn. Located in the Mountains of the Moon, at the peak of the Giant's Lance, the Eyrie looks out over the vale proper, and over the Gates of the Moon. Though small, the Eyrie is considered impregnable to attack. During the winter years, the Arryns descend the mountain and take up their seat in the Gates of the Moon.

## History

It is said that Artys I Arryn, the first King of Mountain and Vale, constructed the Gates of the Moon after defeating the First Men in the Vale, thousands of years ago. His grandson, Roland I Arryn, saw the Gates as inferior to other great seats of Westeros, and so began construction of the Eyrie.

The construction took generations, and the marble used was imported all the way from Tarth. Eventually, the castle was completed, and henceforth it would serve as the seat of House Arryn, only being vacated during the winter months in favor of the Gates of the Moon at the base of the mountain.

The Arryns ruled from the Eyrie for thousands of years, untouched in their perch by any and all who would seek to cause them harm. During the War of Conquest however, while the armies of the Vale blocked the mountain paths, Visenya Targaryen rode Vhagar directly into the inner courtyard of the Eyrie. The boy king Ronnel knelt to the dragons, and was allowed to keep his seat as Lord of the Eyrie.

When King Aerys II called for the heads of Eddard Stark and Robert Baratheon, their guardian Jon Arryn refused the King's demand, beginning the war that would eventually become the War of the Usurper. After the defeat of the Targaryens, Jon Arryn became Hand of the King to Robert Baratheon, serving in the position for 14 years, before his eventual murder at the hands of the Lannisters.

When the War of the Five Kings broke out, the Arryns remained neutral, the young Lord Robert keeping locked away within the Eyrie. After the young lord's suspicious death, Harrold Hardyng ascended to the Lordship of the Eyrie as Harrold Arryn, and remained similarly absent from the war. However, after Aegon's defeat of his aunt Daenerys, Lord Harrold fell in line and bent the knee to his new king.

## Recent Events

With winter ending, the Arryns returned to the Eyrie from the Gates of the Moon. Lord Osric, his wife and his heir returned to the Eyrie, while his remaining three children stayed a while longer with their uncle at the Gates.

House Caswell fought for the Targaryens during the Blackfyre Rebellion. Ser Kyle claimed to have saved the life of Lord Armond Caswell, Lord of Bitterbridge during the rebellion. Armond's son, Lord Joffrey Caswell, faced Kyle in the Whitewalls tourney, unhorsing the knight in the first tilt.

Ser Cleyton Caswell was one of the suitors for Lady Rohanne Webber's hand.

Old Lord Caswell's son, Ser Lorent, took a gift longsword made by Bitterbridge's armorer for his own son, Rolly. Lorent was wounded by Rolly in anger, after which Rolly fled in exile for the Golden Company.
Gloom

Gloom was a spy and thief employed by Archmaester Arvyn in Oldtown, his predominant role being information collection.

He was a member of the Cabal of Light and Dark before his death in a tavern brawl in 380AC.

## Death

Following his monthly payment, Gloom visited *The Rusty Blade,* a tavern in Oldtown. After three flagons of strong black ale, he found himself quite tipsy and shortly after up-heaved the contents of his stomach upon another patron, much to his annoyance and Gloom's chagrin.

After a heated argument, knives were drawn, promptly followed by the spilling of blood and Gloom's untimely demise.

Gloom's body was taken to the Citadel for use in furthering medical knowledge.

Claw Rebellion

### Outcome

Destruction of houses Pyne and HardyConsolidation of Celtigar rule upon Crackclaw Point

The Claw Rebellion was a war in the Crownlands between the Celtigars of Claw Isle and the houses Pyne and Hardy. The Pynes had grown tired of Celtigar rule upon Crackclaw Point, and declared for their freedom. They sent envoys to the other houses on Crackclaw Point asking for their aid in the war and offering a chance at freedom. But only the Hardys answered.

## The War

When Lord Crispian Celtigar learned of their rebellion, he sailed to Crackclaw Point with three hundred men and went to confront the enemies. However, Crispian was grievously injured in a skirmish between their forces. Crispian later died that night. The death of Lord Celtigar had prompted a few of the other houses to join the rebels in arms and fight against the Celtigars. But they held their position until it was determined who would win.

The new lord Daemar Celtigar was enraged, and vowed to crush the rebel houses and establish order on the peninsula. He sailed to Crackclaw Point with a hundred extra men. He joined up with Lord Cave, who had taken over the control of the three hundred men. Celtigar took over control of the forces, with Lord Cave and his uncle Balos as his generals. They met the rebels in battle, facing against their two hundred. At the end of the day, the rebels were defeated, and the survivors fled back to their keeps. Daemar went to both of their holds, and laid siege to them. Both of the houses sent envoys declaring their surrender and pleading for mercy, and that they would be loyal servants if they were given it. But Daemar wouldn't. He had his forces destroy their keeps, and kill every last of their family members. Only a few handful of their family members survived and fled across Westeros. Daemar declared that no member of either house would be allowed back into Crackclaw Point or Claw Isle.

## Aftermath

Immediately after the rebellion, Daemar sent ravens to each of the other lords of Crackclaw Point demanding their fealty and their presence on Claw Isle. Each of them arrived at the island. If they had not sworn their fealty they would be named traitors. Those that did would be rewarded. Daemar also arranged a marriage with the daughter of Lord Cave, as to bind the Clawmen and the Celtigars in marriage. The holds of House Pyne and House Hardy are still abandoned and ruined, and their lands were granted to loyal vassals of the Celtigars, or at least until a new lord was appointed to rule their previous holdings and titles.
