Second: Rhogo, a Dothraki savage. Wears an arakh on each hip; it is said he is deadly with them. It is whispered that Rhogo owes a great debt to Horas. When not enjoying the fine Westerosi wine and women, Rhogo acts as Horas' bodyguard and messenger.

Personal History: As a boy, Horas Blackwood was a meek and mild-mannered child who preferred a good book to a sturdy lance. As the nephew of Lord Terrence Blackwood he stood to inherit little, and his father found it unlikely that he would distinguish himself with the sword. And so at a very young age Horas was sent off to Oldtown to begin his training as a Maester.

Here Horas distinguished himself; he was quick-witted and studious, and rose rapidly. Maester Mors remarked that never in his fifty-eight years at the Citadel had a novice earned his silver link so quickly. But Horace had habits that irritated his instructors as well. The second link on his chain was made of Valyrian steel, for the study of magic and mysteries, a subject frowned upon by most Maesters. Horas never neglected his other studies, but became increasingly obsessed with the study of magic. And then, one day, Horas was gone, leaving only his partially forged chain and a brief note on his bed:

Thank you for the opportunities at the Citadel. Heading east to further my education. Will keep in touch and be back soon.

Keeping in touch proved to be an infrequent, brief letter once every few months or few years. And “soon” meant fifteen years. Horas has recently returned to Westeros to find it a very different place. He is currently heading to Raventree Hall to greet his family.

Physical Description: Horas is a short, slim man with light brown hair and pale blue eyes. His features are modest and friendly. Horas prides himself on keeping a cool head, and his face is often a mask of courtesy. Horas' personal banner is a simple raven, black on white.

Horas would almost be forgettable if not for the highly noticeable eccentricities he picked up in the East. For one thing, his lips are stained permanently blue. It is also rumored that his shoulders and back are covered with tattoos, but this is difficult to confirm.

Reputation: Horas more or less fell off the map of Westerosi nobility for fifteen years. Now that he has returned, however, he has caused quite a splash. No one seems quite sure where Horas Blackwood spent the last fifteen years or what he was doing, so rumors fly. He was in Ibben, Yi Ti, Braavos, Asshai. He can summon demons from the seven hells and turn men into toads with a word. Blackwood does his best to discourage these rumors, but his efforts seem to only have encouraged them.

1) Character Name: Aerie Blackwood

2) Character Age: 16

3) Character Nationality: The Riverlands

4) Byname: Aerie Firestorm; Lady Blackheart

5) Character Skills:

Expert- Rider & Swordswoman
Apprentice- Charm & Persuasion
Novice- Intrigue & Oration
Beginner- Unarmed Combat & Battle

6) Character's Second: Her closest companion, Alyssa.

7) Character Personal History: If it could have been plausible, Aerie, the youngest daughter (a fact that rankled her to this day) of the Blackwoods would have left the womb mounted on a destrier, whirling a sword and barking orders to the muscles in the bloody battlefield of birth. She was born to be a general, to command and lead and be the inexorable force that shattered the armies of men while keeping her own from falling to its knees in the rank despair of death. Unfortunately, Aerie was born a woman, a fact that, in a world largely dominated by men, held her back from being anything more than a cheeky, temperamental girl who would knock the boys senseless for bothering her. As she grew, she became immersed in the art of warfare, but she simultaneously stared to realize that she was expected to behave placidly, as if she was a fragile porcelain figurine anxious to be protected from the harsh realities of the world from her gallant knight in shinning armor, at least if she ever had a hope of marrying into a high house and raising her family’s name. These conflicting interests wrought from her iron a volatile material much like a dagger concealed in by silk, the sharp steel under many downy folds eager to carve a hole into all who opposed her. Aerie became a top-notch rider and swordswoman while developing into a master of honeyed words to fool and bemuse those around her hell-bent on shaping her rough edges and bumps into the smooth texture of a dimwitted, twittering lady. Resisting the grain and continuing her study of battle and fighting, Aerie, newly fourteen, set out to explore the world and learn the clandestine nature of man, much to the displeasure of her traditionalistic parents. When she deigned to return, she had ripened into a wise a venomous fruit of womanly fury.

8) Character Physical Description: Aerie is a noticeably short and slender girl, only scraping five feet at best, however, her unyielding spirit and obstinate nature make up for what she lacks in size. Large green eyes simmering with suppressed arrogance and a zealous fire rest above cheekbones nestled high on the slopes of her dignified face, giving her an imperious yet ever-impertinent look always on the brink of breaking into sly laughter, while her ebony hair cascades to her waist in a sleek curtain, curving swiftly past an elongated, regal neck. Her usually smooth façade, only ever creased by the lines of irrepressible, constant laughter or flaring anger, is considered quite a lovely spectacle, though Aerie takes little notice of it unless it is in a position to serve useful in cajoling another to her favor.

9) Character Reputation: Aerie had developed quite a reputation for herself during her daring escapade through the Seven Kingdoms of Westeros. Those who had wronged her knew her to be choleric, irascible, and sometimes petulant; those who had inadvertently annoyed her knew her to be arrogant, sarcastic, and patronizing; those who had briefly spoken to her knew her to be cheerful, airy, and witty, full of shrew humor; those who had held a private discussion with her realized she was a smooth talker, ever-scheming behind innocent jests, and persuasive; those who had clashed blades with her found she was bold, courageous, and occasionally pensive, though inwardly highly intelligent. Blithely satirical would be the most accurate way to bottle her character. Despite her discreetly mocking yet cordially charming attitude, however, everybody knew she was in the game for the power—she lusted for it—and aiming for total domination, as being considered a minor anything was vastly dissatisfying to her. Many called her Aerie Firestorm, as her persona contained the catastrophe of a wailing storm from her riverland home, but rather than a flurry of liquid, she burned with the lethal ferocity of an open, roaring flame thundering in the winds of chaos. She was also dubbed Lady Blackheart for her malicious sense of humor and her cruelly playful toying with boys whose hearts were serious and true where hers was distant and flirtatiously calculating. Aerie is also notorious for wearing burgundy clothing trimmed by black. She is known for being a deeply charming yet lethal woman, a fierce warrior, and a rider of incontestable caliber, especially when aboard her blood bay stallion Anarchy.

5) Character Skills

beginner: stewardship, persuasion

6) Character's Second: Lord Quinten of Duskendale

7) Character Personal History: Born at Dragonstone, the seat of the Targaryen princes of old, Callen was forced to mature early as befit the duties of the Crown Prince of Westeros. Although he had his father's characteristic Baratheon hair, he favored his mother's slimmer build.

He squired for Lord Walder Tully till age 16, when he was knighted after setting a trap for the rebel lord Tytos of Duskendale. He spared the man's family, but executed Tytos. The former rebel's son, attracted to the prince's quiet charisma and humour quickly became Callen's lifelong friend. After being offered the rule of Dragonstone from his father, the King, Callen turned it down saying that he would make the seat of his house elsewhere. The young prince later decided on rebuilding the ruined castle of Summerhall, and took an active role in it's design and construction. He became widly known for his interest in archetecture, and was noted for the reconstruction of Harrenhal, a process still going on today. A popular byname for him is Callen the Builder. Because of his experience in the building of castles he knows somewhat of their weaknesses and strength.

His battle tactics often hinge on daring tactics, sometimes too daring. They entail descive manuevers, like the ambush that made him a knight. These manuevers have earned him praise from some, scorn from his elders, who feel that he should be more cautious.

Before others he always has a quiet smile on his face. Although a quiet man (unlike his Baratheon ancestors) he attracts others to him, a force of quiet charisma. When called upon to speak in public he relies on this skill, forcing the crowd to lean in to hear his words. Despite this kind demeanor he falls into a grim mood at times, especially when faced with difficult descision. Unknown to most people he can be particularly ruthless to those he considers traitors, and is known to have cut of Lord Tytos's head off after the rebel's surrender.

8) Character Physical Description: Although born with the characteristic Baratheon charcoal black hair, however, at the age of twelve his mother's Targaryen ancestry added a tinge of silver along the sides of closs cropped hair, something usually reserved for those in their 50s. He has deep blue eyes, warm and non-judgemental when at peace, cold and grim during difficulty.

9) Character Reputation: Quiet and kind. Admired for his charisma. In battle his darring moves have earned the renown of some, the scorn of others who she it as foolhardy bravado. Utterly ruthless to those he views as traitors and sometimes flies into a rage, a characteristic the maesters believe come from his distant Targaryen heritage.

1. Princess Emelia Martell
2. 24 (in 505)
3. Dornish
4. The Sand Wraith
5. Her skills are unknown. Perhaps the most well-known trait about her is a tendency to find fortuitous coincidences around her that are difficult to explain by any reason other than the gods' own luck, and the second-most-well-known trait is that she spends far too much time with her books.
6. Jon Sand, her twin brother, an effeminate young man even less well-known than his sister.
7. Princess Emelia was born Emelia Sand, and she is believed bastard-born to some noblewoman or other, but raised by commoners. Five years ago, she was legitimated, putting her ahead of her other family members in succession to the rule of Dorne; since then, she has buried herself in the lessons necessary to bring her up to speed with ruling the desert kingdom. She was not expected to succeed her father so quickly, however...
8. Emelia could hardly be called beautiful, though her dark blue eyes could be called "captivating;" she has put on barely any meat since she was brought to the castle; and her body remains slim as a willow. Her face is slightly leathery and a bit lined before her time, her lips thin and stern, but the black hair tumbling around her shoulders is brushed and oiled to a perfect shine. Oddly, her skin is close to pale despite her desert upbringing; she has commented that her body just doesn't tan.
9. Emelia is called "the Sand Wraith" because of an utter -lack- of knowledge about her. She is known mostly for her Seven-cursed luck and her ability to draw conclusions nobody else could; her foresight is nothing short of uncanny, and she is virtually impossible to lie to.

Also because of this event, she was very moved by the recent deaths of the small council by bandits.

8) Sara is tall for a woman but slight of build. She has long, brown hair that naturally curls but is normally braided for practicality. She has deep, brown eyes and a warm smile.

9) Sara is well known throughout the Vale for being friendly and charitable. However, everyone knows about her ambitions and she is known to be short-tempered when roused and proud. She is still much loved by her father's bannermen though, especially among the younger men. She will not hesitate to do most anything to get to the top.

6) Nealon Spear. Appointed champion since birth, as well as close friend and associate.

7) Brother to Ser Zachary Lannister, Ser Steffen is the older son of Randwin Lannister and nephew to Lord Baldwin, Warden of the West. Unlike most boys his age, Steffen did not dream of battle. He dreamt of a throne, and power since the tender age of 11. Although commonly displaying talent at both swordplay and horse riding, Steffen frustrated his father, who was to depart westeros soon after, by showing more interest in maps, listening to tales of kings and dragons and chasing local peasant girls.

As a result, Steffen found himself negelected, and grew closer to his champion Spear, and other lowborn friends. It was among these that Steffen found his love of trickery and falseness. The more he listened to mercenary tales of riches, often coupled with betrayal, the more Steffen questioned the ideas of honour and loyalty he had been weaned on. After his father departed Westoros, Steffen immediately began to ply his trade in lannisport, bribing petty lords, 'taxing' the locals, and building himself a powerbase in the area.

Steffen gained extensive contacts throughout lannisport, slowly building his wealth. He was reported to have gained his knighthood by bribing ser Arthur Marbrand at the age of 17, although like many things concerning the worm it was never proved. It was during this time that he began to being reffered to as 'the worm' as opposed to the lion, due to his apparent desire for talking, or 'avoidance of battle', and his particularly oily charm used when talking to superiors. To the horror of family members, Steffen took the title on, adding a sigil of a worm next to the golden lion of lannister.

At the battle of the Golden tooth he was responsible for ambushing the rear of the enemy, although it is rumoured that Steffen himself stayed out of the battle, having a loyal sword arm wear his arms while he 'entertained' the daughter of a local petty lord. At the age of 22, he was expelled by lord Baldwin, only for him to ply his trade of treachory in the reach. Although it has never been proved, Steffen was rumoured to lead a group of mercenaries there, ambushing trade wagons and even attacking the odd village. After 2 long years of absence, he returned to lannisport assuming a position of power in the city, much to the dismay of local residents, and to his younger brother ser Zachary.

8) At just above average height, and of slim build, Steffen bears a bald head, blue eyes, thick eyebrows and high cheekbones. Steffen is famed for dressing less than spectacularly, preffering simpler clothes than most members of the lannister house. Clean-shaven, Steffen bears a childhood scar on his leg from falling on a sword.

On the battlefield, he is openly seen sporting his own brown cloak of the worm and lion. His weapon of choice, the sword, is seen on the right side of his belt, as befits one left-handed. Although he has been accused of being craven, most of his associates would claim him to simply prefer some forms of warfare over others. He would rather stab a man in his sleep than fight him in a duel.

9) Ser Steffen's reputation is that of an oily noble who can appear honourable, but to those who know him well it is evident that his loyalties are always to himself. Skilled with long swords, he can be effective and brutal in melees when his back is to the wall. He sees tourneys and archery as foolish past times, however, and generally stays away.

His manipulativeness and greed is on the 'cersei' scale of things, and he has often expressed disappointment in his brother's honourable nature. Although his own nature has made him a 'true' lannister, he has not earned many friends amongst his family, with his loyalties often questioned. Steffen, in turn mistrusts his family entirely, and sees his name only as a vehicle to power.

He gained his less than honourable reputation after beating a young whore to death in public, after she 'insulted' him. (It is believed that she claimed he had not paid)
