## History

### Founding and The Second Conquest

Ser Rolph Spicer came from a family of merchants, his father elevated to the status of knight by Tytos Lannister. The family's wealth grew to the point where they were able to marry their daughter, Sybell Spicer, to Gawen Westerling.

During the War of the Five Kings, Ser Rolph served as Castellan of the Crag, House Westerling's seat. When Robb Stark stormed the Crag, he was left wounded, tended to by Ser Rolph's niece, Jeyne Westerling. The two soon eloped. Following this, Tywin Lannister contacted Ser Rolph and his sister Sybelle. Together with House Frey and Roose Bolton, they conducted the Red Wedding. For his participation, Ser Rolph was named a Lord and granted Castamere.

Now Lord, Rolph took up residence in Castamere, and began its restorations, bringing his family with him; his wife came from a fellow merchant family of Lannisport, and had given him several children, including their eldest, Tybolt Spicer. Meanwhile, Lord Rolph's cousin Ser Samwell Spicer was stationed in the Riverlands. All changed with the arrival of Aegon in the Stormlands. When King's Landing fell, many Westermen forces returned home but, knowing their House was tied to Lannister due to their dishonourable actions, Ser Samwell stayed in the Riverlands, only to die in the fighting with the Golden Company and River lords.

In the aftermath of the war, Rolph Spicer was tried, found guilty and sent to the Wall. However, his son Tybolt was innocent of any crime, and inherited Castamere at the age of 15, in 301 AC.

#### The Coming Centuries

House Spicer was among the most prosperous Houses of the West for some time. It took almost ninety years to fully drain Castamere of the water, but when it was finally managed, the family's wealth increased exponentially. The silver mines of Castamere sent a steady flow through Lannisport, and the ties between Spicer and Lannister grew with it.

House Spicer participated in the Mummer's War of 408 AC.

During the Tourney of 418, Sybassion Spicer slew Lord Abelar Tarly during an accident in the joust.

In 432 AC, Sylas Spicer, one of the sons of Lord Regenard, was accused of causing the Firestorm of Lannisport, and when authorities moved to arrest him, the War of Three Banners was started. House Spicer was the main belligerent in that war. Lord Spicer was pushed back to Castamere towards the end, and when Lord Regenard revealed something to the Lady Tysane, she ordered the execution of everyone within.

The only surviving Spicer is the Whitecloak, Sybassion.
