9) Character Personal History:
Born the eldest child of Queen Rhaenys Targaryen and her consort Selwyn Baratheon, Joanna is a child of war. She is too young to remember most of the war but she does recall that her aunt Liliyana murdered her father Selwyn. Joanna has few memories of her father except that she and her brothers were frightened of his scarred visage. She has stronger memories of her capitivity by Ragnor Greyjoy. Her brother Maekar, who was also kidnapped, was too young to remember any of it, but Joanna remembers her dislike of Ragnor and her fear of his followers.
Joanna grew up mostly ain the Eyrie under her mother's guardianship but spent a fair bit of time at Storm's End and the travelling Court. Rhaenys trained her to wield a blade though it was clear that she lacked her mother's inbred skill. Joanna showed more talent for political abilities so she began to spend more and more time with the Court. At sixteen she weas urged by Lord Thatcher to wed the fourteen year old Jon Royce, the heir to Runestone and a childhood companion of Joanna and Maekar when they were in the Vale. Rhaenys wasn't keen on her daughter having to make a political match. With Rhaenys as her primary role model, Joanna loathed the tradiitional concept of female submission to her husband, and so she decided that a younger husband would suit her better than an older one who might not be as willing to go along with her own wishes. She and Jon were betrothed and married within the year. Since then, Joanna has divided her time between Runestone and the Court. She is a good friend to her goodsister Queen Morgan and various other ladies of the Court. She has three living daughters and one who died in infancy.
Her husband Jon died during an attack in the Vale after Joanna became the secret lover of her brother Daemon. Joanna and Daemon have just got married and she is pregnant with his child.
10) Character Physical Description:
She has pale gold hair and purple eyes, white skin and delicate features. She is more beautiful than Rhaenys and has a more lively countenance. She is not quite as slender as she once was, now that she has had several children, but that makes her look more beautiful and more womanly than the delicate waif she once was. Joanna always dresses to advantage, usually in dresses that hug her bodice and show a hint of cleavage (sometimes) more. She likes bright, vivid colours in a multitude of shades but purple and gold are her favourites. She hates dark colours such as grey and brown.
