## History

### Childhood

Tya was born of a good family, but on the lower scales of the hierarchy, and not from a well-known house. However, it was her sharp wit and unusual beauty that catapulted her into the eyes of the Lannister clan. She was chosen at the tender age of twelve to become the new, and final wife of Tywald. Not that she particularly minded. As a girl, he was her constant companion. He showed her firstly, the love of a friend, and then as she came of age, the love of a man. In this, he sealed her unwavering loyalty.

### Adulthood

Tywald had had two previous wives, to which he was bore three sons. Their mother had not stayed around, simply did her duty, collected her pay, and slipped from the pages of history. As a child, she was jealous of his children. Jealous of the fact they were not hers. Jealous that she would never BE a mother. But as her love for Tywald grew, so did the love for his children. Soon enough, she donned the veil of motherhood and saw to the well being of his sons-- their sons. And true to the test of time was her loyalty and love unfailing.

### From the eyes of Tywalt

Tya was a loving, and very involved mother. She enjoyed gathering the three boys at night to tell them stories of her childhood. Particularly, how she met their father. But in order to do that, she had to tell them more of who she was. Growing up

on the Iron Islands wasn't so difficult, but it had taught her that a rougher exterior kept you alive. This was where she learned to be the smartest person in the room. Wherever Tya went, mischief followed. The banners of Harlaw witnessed the metamorphosis of such a wild spirit. But there came a day when that all changed.

Rain and mud. The crack of thunder. A busy market place. Flashes of the day her life changed. Tywald wasn't in the market for a new wife. He'd come to love the woman who had given him his sons and she left without a backward glance. He was slighted, and hurting. However, the flash of white blonde hair, and a shouting vendor caught his attention. Cornered, a girl of no more than twelve stood, wet to the teeth and covered in mud. Even caught by the angry vendor, she held her nose up at him. Clearly born of some class, even if she weren't quite showing it. Tywald was intrigued. So he stayed and he watched. What was the offense? He'd never know. The girl sweet talked her way out of her predicament, and when that wouldn't work, she took on the tone of authority. Then, to create his silence and to force him to back down, she pointed up to the banners, which hung along the stone walls of the castle which surrounded the square. With a strong and intimidating voice she pointed out how unhappy her family would be that a low-born merchant would accuse their child of thievery. In this, the man knew he was beat, and so he left. But as he walked away, out from beneath her skirts she procured a shiny red apple. Tywald smiled, and as if she sensed him, their eyes met.

## Personality

Tya is incredibly loyal to House Lannister, loving to her three sons, and cruel to those that would do them harm. She is extremely clever, like a fox, which is what caught the eye of Tywald when she was a girl. Her ability to manipulate people like pawns on a chessboard make her a real threat. She proves time and again that she is far more than a pretty face. There is simply nothing she would not do for her family.

## Appearance

Tya is tall and graceful, with a slim figure and perfectly placed curves. She is always dressed in the colors of House Lannister-- red and gold, and enjoys rich fashion.
