Tybolt Lannister

Martyn Lannister

Alysanne Lannister

Tybolt Lannister is the eldest son of Ser Jason Lannister and Lady Cersei Tully. He is the Lord of Casterly Rock.

## Appearance

Tybolt bears the hallmarks of a Lannister, blonde hair and green eyes. His hair is not as purely blonde as his fathers, which could be attributed to his mother. He and his brother Tyran are nearly identical in their appearance and have used it to their advantage for nearly their entire life. As they grew older, the two finally managed to grow apart in their looks. The stresses of life have finally caught up with Tybolt and while his hair still remains golden, his beard has begun to have streaks of grey run through it.

## History

Born three minutes ahead of his brother in 82 AC, Tybolt was the first born son of Ser Jason Lannister and Lady Cersei Tully. The twin boys were hailed as a blessing by many in the west, as the continued line of House Lannister seemed to be secured in the two squalling boys that looked exactly the same.

Growing up at the Rock, Tybolt has been trained in the yards of Casterly Rock and has squired under his Uncle Joffrey Lannister since the age of twelve, following the Rosegold Rebellion and his grandfather's appointment to the Small Council as Master of Ships. Tybolt would accompany his grandfather to the capital while his father remained in Casterly Rock to rule the west.

While in King's Landing, Tybolt and Tyran have caused numerous mishaps for their family's guards and staff, posing as one another with such ease that it even takes their grandfather a moment before being able to tell them apart. He anxiously awaited for his time to be made a knight and craves the glory and honor that such a title would bring to his life in the court of King's Landing. He would remain as such until after the battle off the Arbor.

His father, Ser Jason, was implicated in aiding the Ironborn with the Lannister fleet and following a lengthy trial, was found guilty. Ser Jason ordered a trial by combat and was defeated, forcing him to take the Black instead of losing his head. The Crown then stripped the Lannisters of Warden of the West, giving it to House Tarbeck. With that, Tybolt was named the Heir of Casterly Rock. His marriage to Princess Alysella Targaryen was upheld as King Viserys wished to keep the West on some sort of a leash. The two were married in a small ceremony at the Rock and began a rather civil but not loving marriage. Their first son Jaime was born the following year in 101 AC, with three more following: Martesse, Martyn, and Alysanne.

In 114 the Riverlands exploded into violence following the rise of Marq the Cobbler in Fairmarket. Lord Tytos had been confined to his bed for the last few years. The following year, after the Cobbler's seemingly disasterous defeat at the God's Eye, they resurfaced in the Westerlands. Lord Tytos, as his last order, sent his son Joffrey and his grandsons out to stop them as the Cobbers resurfaced in the West with the Sack of Oxcross. By the time the Lannister force arrived there, they had disappeared again. At Oxcross, a messenger from the Rock informed Tybolt that his grandfather had finally died and he was the new Lord of the Rock. Tybolt took command from his uncle and lead the forces of the West through the Battle of Ash and then Golden Tooth, pushing the Cobbler's back out of the Westerlands. He punished those lords and houses that aided the Cobblers, including Lord Sarsfield, who was hanged in his own courtyard after discovering that he had been in contact with Marq the Cobbler.

Pushing back out into the Riverlands, Tybolt met with House Tully to discuss the Cobbler threat, as Marq as still at large. Together they forged an alliance that allowed to two houses to work together to eventually bring down Marq at the Mummer's Ford. The Lannister forces were the anvil and the Rivermen were the hammer, trapping the Cobblers in the ford and slaughtering hundreds that day. Marq was captured and brutally executed for his crimes. The Wardenship of the West was returned to the Lannisters following the Cobbler Rebellion and Tybolt continued his quiet rule of the West. His grandfather's attempt to politic had ended with his father's betrayal and had not been attempted since.

The rise of the High Septon in the years after the Cobbler Rebellion was kept at an arm's length by the Westermen. Even the radical preachers that set sail to the Iron Islands were killed and while there were many that cried for justice, none such were sent from the Rock, as Lord Tybolt had attempted to dissuade them from going. He imposed restrictions on the Poor Fellows in Lannisport and while he tolerated their presence, he increased his own patrols of the roads to combat their influence. He also worked to bring a man loyal to him as the new Septon of the Golden Sept in Lannisport, a Lannett by the name of Tymon.

In 130 AC, King Viserys finally perished and in the Rock there was a small celebration in the deep caverns of the castle by Tybolt and many of his family. The man was despised by the Lannisters and his son Baelor stood to inherit. For the first time since the Cobbler Rebellion, Tybolt ventures forth from the Westerlands to King's Landing.
