Character Personal History: Jhorgo is the son of Erik Greyjoy, formerly Erik Coldiron, formerly Erik Pyke, by his first salt wife, Rhelis, a former Dothraki slave captured while reaving. Much of his youth was spent on Bear Island, his father's fief. However, he and his family were captured along with the island by Northern invaders upon the Ironborns' ill-fated declaration of independence.

Jhorgo, his mother, and his half-sister, Helya, spent the next few years as captives, first to Lord Olander Reed and then Lord Joramun Goodbrother. However, they were released to the custody of their cousin, Mortimer Greyjoy (Pyke), on the condition that they swear never to seek the Seastone Chair.

Since then, Jhorgo has mainly been raised by his 'uncle' Morty, traveling both Westeros and the East. First, these travels were largely incognito, but soon became adventures in reaving. Cap'n Jho has amassed a small fortune and a fleet of six ships, mainly crewed by Ironborn seeking a return to the Old Way. Braavos' considerable shipping with Westeros and the Stepstones provides much of their funding. He captains the longship Bloody Fool.

Character Physical Description:
An inch or two over six feet, Jhorgo has the tanned skin and black hair of a Dothraki, not looking much like his father's family save for his eyes, cold and grey.

Character Reputation: Well, that depends entirely on who you ask. A Braavosi merchant might say he's pirate scum, a blight on the shipping industry. An Ironborn captain might chuckle and shake his head, muttering about the Old Way. A Westerosi would likely shrug and say he doesn't have time to blather about upstart reavers in the Narrow Sea.

Second:

Character Name: Octavion Greyjoy

Character Age: 21, b. 524

Character Skills:

Noteworthy: Short Sword
Noteworthy: Stealth
Apprentice: Ambush
Apprentice: Sailing
Novice: Unarmed
Novice: Singing
Beginner: Riding
Beginner: Drinking

Character Personal History: Born to Erik Greyjoy's salt wife Dacey, madame of House Avalon in King's Landing, Octavion spent his first six years with her. But, while still a boy, he was taken in by his 'uncle' Mortimer, in truth his father's cousin, to learn the Ironborn ways. Octavion took to sailing and reaving just fine, but his real lessons came from Mortimer's less-common talents: stealth, murder, and discretion.

He now sails with his elder half-brother Jhorgo, captaining the longship Whore's Whelp.

Character Physical Description: Of middling height and skinny, with black hair usually pulled back into a ponytail. He often keeps his beard trimmed into a goatee, thinking it makes him look more dashing.

Character Reputation: Octavion lacks one, and that's how he prefers it.

Third:

Character Name: Helya Greyjoy

Character Age: b. 522

Character Nationality (Stormlands, The Reach, etc): Ironborn

Character Skills:

Noteworthy: Swordswomanship
Apprentice: Sailing
Novice: Naval Battle
Beginner: Drinking

Character Personal History: Helya is the one product of Erik Greyjoy's salt wife, Gysella Harlaw. She was born and raised on Bear Island, her father's fief, alongside her half-brother Jhorgo. Much as the ladies-in-waiting did to turn her into a proper young lady, they ultimately failed, and, when she and her siblings were taken in by Mortimer, he taught her alongside her brothers.

Now, she is a fine reaver, as bloodthirsty as any man, if not moreso. She sails with her brother's flotilla, commanding the longship Bitch of a Kraken.

Character Physical Description: Helya takes much after her mother, with slightly-curly brown hair and a small build. The helm, mail, and leather that she tends to wear obscure such things, however. Her face is a bit freckled, with a small nose and blue eyes. One thing she does seem to have inherited from her father is her mouth, both in how prone it is to smile or laugh, and what tends to come out of it.

Character Reputation: A reaver, made famous as much by her gender as her skill. Some say she takes her crew to her bed one at a time (Or by twos or threes, depending on who's doing the telling). Those who say it within her hearing usually regret it soon after.
