**Sandor Reyne** (73 - 98 AC) was the heir of House Reyne of Castamere until his mysterious death in 98 AC.

## **Appearance and Character**

Sandor was a well built and muscular man, strong enough to wield a two-handed warhammer with one hand for a brief time. He carries himself with great composure and confidence. He his long fiery red hair with loose curls that rest on his shoulders. his eyes are a soft blue that matches the eyes of his mother.

Many might find Sandor to be quite enjoyable to be around. his charm and charisma could win the hearts of both men and women. But anyone who spends significant time with him would see his true colors shine. He was indulgent, lustful, having slept with plenty of women throughout his life, with little regard to their status. Sandor harbors little empathy for others and judges others based on their usefulness and how attractive they are to him.

## H**istory**

Born in the 73 AC, Sandor Reyne was the firstborn son of Lord Robert Reyne and his wife Alysanne Reyne. Shortly followed by his twin brother, Damion Reyne, mere minutes after birth. Sandor his always had a penchant for mischief, especially in his years as a growing child. He and his twin brother were partners in crime, wherever Sandor went Damion tailed behind him. Not a moon goes by without one or both of the Reyne twins getting into some sort of trouble, a vast majority of which were fights, which Sandor had a penchant for and made sure to train under various knights of his household. Even if he hadn't formally become a squire, he still grew into a fierce warrior.

Robert Reyne loved his two sons dearly and that resulted in lax punishments for their antics and often made excuses for their behavior. Sandor and his brother eventually began to learn how to hide their mischief well, which slowly evolved into something more severe than mere bullying that often went under the nose of their father.

Sandor was a smart, charismatic young man, and often used his charm for indulgence and lust, drinking and sleeping with women became Sandor's favorite past time. This behavior eventually led to an incident with Lord Andros Tarbeck when the family had visited for the nameday of Lord Reyne's aunt, Lady Cerenna. In his drunken state, Sandor made a foul, inappropriate comment towards Lady Cerenna that he and his brother laughed over. They were soon confronted by Lord Tarbeck which Sandor, with little regards to the consequences, attempted to assault the Lord of Tarbeck Hall only to have his fist to be grabbed mid-swing. his twin brother ended up being knocked down by a punch from Lord Tarbeck. They were then dragged to their father's seat and were appropriately punished for once in their lives.

The incident left an everlasting grudge within Sandor. He blamed his humiliation from being treated like a child by his all on Lord Andros Tarbeck rather than himself. This would be made apparent in the war, two years later.

### **Rosegold Rebellion**

House Reyne did not hesitate to side with House Lannister when the rebellion began as they bore no love for the king. Sandor was charged with leading a portion of the Reyne army and he marched to Tarbeck Hall. There were no orders to besiege the castle or even camp outside their walls, they waited there for an entire moon. Sandor was conflicted whether or not to attack the keep, as he knew it was unwise and unnecessary, especially when their presence kept the Tarbeck army at bay from attacking anyone else. Sadly, his grudge towards Lord Andros Tarbeck prevailed, Sandor ordered the army to attack.

The first assault was a painful loss for the Reyne army. They had lost hundreds of men and Sandor sustained moderate injuries, yet, he refused to give up. Fueled by grudge and anger from the lost, Sandor attempted a second assault, which the Reyne army was close to becoming victorious, but were still forced to retreat. Sandor planned for a third and hopefully final assault on the keep, which was cut short when Lord Tarbeck had charged them during the night. The Reyne soldiers were quick to awaken and fend off the rivaling army, and despite massive losses, they still managed to push them back.

Sandor spotted Andros Tarbeck open for attack and charged without hesitation. With a single, heavy blow from his warhammer, Lord Tarbeck was knocked down from his feet, Sandor would have ended Andros's life with another powerful blow had his horse not suddenly collapse beneath him. It was Theomore Reyne, Lord Tarbeck's squire and Sandor's brother that had brought the horse down. Theomore swung his sword at his older brother, sliced across Sandor's abdomen while he laid prone on the ground, but Theomore could not will himself to strike the final blow. Theomore, instead swiftly returned to Andros's side and escorted him to safety and left his brother to bleed on the ground.

With Sandor too injured to fight, Reynard Reyne took the lead of the Reyne army and prepared for another attack on Tarbeck Hall. Before they could strike again, word from King's Landing came and declared the war to be over. With that, the Reynes returned to Castamere.

### **Consequences**

When Lord Robert Reyne heard of his son's actions towards House Tarbeck, he was understandably furious at Sandor's blatant disregard of the kinship between the two houses. He could not let his eldest sons go unpunished for their reckless actions, and had Sandor and his brother imprisoned within the keep's own dungeons, in separate cells so they could not interact. They were imprisoned there for a little over a moon before Lord Reyne finally released them, hoping they had learned their lesson. The punishment did change Sandor, for the better or worse is difficult to discern, but what is certain that Sandor harbors barely any love towards his father after the punishment. Regardless if he knew he deserved it for disobeying orders but Sandor is not one to admit his mistakes.

Now Sandor patiently awaits his father to pass on so he could finally become Lord of Castamere, so he could finally do his plans as he wished. Andros Tarbeck was still hot on his mind, but he wished to further House Reyne's influence most importantly.
