However after the would be king saved his life Gwayne realised he was fighting for the wrong side and is now haunted by his actions while the rest of Westeros proclaims him a hero.[/hider]

[Center]Ser Gwayne Corbray
Age: 33
House: Corbray of Heart's Home

House Corbray is only a small knightly house in the Vale oft going unmentioned in the history books, however they were immortalised after the Blackfyre rebellion. Ser Gwayne Corbray, a young knight of the Kings-Guard wielding the Valyrian steel sword Lady Forlorn entered single combat with the pretender Daemon Blackfyre, a duel which would go down in history. Lasting well over an hour the two Valyrian steel swords sparked across each other until only Daemon was left standing, the great-bastard called for one of his captains to take his injured opponent to the rear in order to receive healing; a decision that would ultimately cost him the war, and make Gwayne realise he'd been fighting for the wrong side.

History: Life if not easy for a distant relation to a small and poor house, Gwayne grew up not as small-folk but certainly a far shot from nobility. His father and he were in service to the main Corbray branch at Heart's Home, generally doing menial tasks growing up in the admittedly small shadow the main family, it meant however that Gwayne had access to the training yard. 

With a sword in his hand Gwayne could forget all the troubles of his low standing, he could be Serwyn of the Mirror Shield or the Dragonknight, slaying giants and grumpkins. It quickly became apparent that the lad was a natural, he was good with a blade, more than good. Soon the embarrassment of having a distant relation knocking the heir on his arse was outweighed by having a potentially great knight under their name. By the time we won his first tournament Gwayne was welcomed with open arms to the main branch of the family and knighthood soon followed. 
Gwayne's first kill came when he was 17, a band of rogue Nights-Watch brothers never knew what hit them. Eventually Gwayne was offered a place within the Kings-guard, a position he eagerly accepted. 

The next three years as a white knight were certainly the happiest in Gwayne's life, while he was not one for court life he was content having found an honorable place in the world and to be known throughout Westeros. Everything changed with the war though, Gwaynes strong sense of duty put him steadfast on the side of the loyalists and was one of the fiercest fighters throughout the war. During the climactic battle of the Redgrass field, Ser Gwayne was at the head of the van and fought his way to Daemon himself; the two fought for almost an hour their respect for each other growing as the clashes of their Valyrian steel blades sparked across the field, no other man dared interrupt the two.

At long last Daemon took the upper hand and incapacitated Gwayne, to his great surprise though, the pretender didn't finish his opponent, instead he wasted valuable time sending the Kings-guard to get healing, a more noble act Gwayne had not witnessed. As he recovered Gwayne began to question his own allegiance for the first time in his life, Daemon was not the evil bastard he had been made out to be and Daeron was notably absent from the battle, who he asked himself was the real king? 

The question was answered for Gwayne later that day as he learned saving him had cost Daemon both the war and his life. Hailed as a hero by Westeros Gwayne couldn't but feel anything but, feeling personally responsible for the death of a king. He continued on in the KIngs-guard, never voicing his doubts as they ate him up from the inside out.
