HOUSE BARATHEON
“Ours is the Fury"

Head of the House
Lord Davos Baratheon

[ ⚔ ] S Y N O P S I S House Baratheon is the youngest of the Great Houses and are the principal in the Stormlands ruling as Lord Paramounts of the Stormlands from their seat of Storms End.  The Baratheons overthrew this Old Storm Kings during Aegons Conquest and have ruled in their stead ever since, now proudly residing in the great castle constructed by the legendary Duran Godsgrief.  Members of the Baratheon family are known to be tall and powerfully built, with black hair, blue eyes as well as strong jaw lines.  Another common feature among the Baratheons is their temper which is immortalised through their house words "Ours is the Fury."

[ ⚔ ] M I L I T A R Y  S T R E N G T HThe Stormlands are said to be able to field 30,000 men.  The majority of the force is made up of foot soldiers, however the Stormlands are known for their tough and hardened warriors who are said to be some of the strongest in the Seven Kingdoms and will put up a good fight no matter the foe.  The Stormlands is also home to its fair share of knights, meaning mounted troops are not exactly a rarity in the Stormland armies.  There is also the skilled and deadly Archers from the Marches who are both efficent and versatile.

Haegon 2.0! Now with twice as much Haegon! @Asura

Haegon Blackfyre

[ ⚔ ]HouseBlackfyre

[ ⚔ ]Reputation- Fourth son of Daemon I Blackfyre
- Has grown up in exile in Tyrosh, fostered by his grandfather the Archon of Tyrosh
- A brutal warrior, trained in the fashion of a Westerosi knight
- A mere few months younger than his elder brother Daemon II with whom he has a rivalry
- Noted as an often melancholic and angry man, prone to violence and often thought to be aloof
- Covets Blackfyre which is in the possession of his uncle Aegor Rivers, otherwise known as 'Bittersteel'
- Ambitious and driven, but can sometimes be led to foolish action
- Firmly believes in his right to rule the Seven Kingdoms over his brother or anyone else, all of whom he refers to as 'Pretenders'
- Though often mislabeled as dull Haegon is possessed of a low cunning on and off the battlefield, an amateurish and brutal planner

[ ⚔ ]Appearance'Imposing' is perhaps the most appropriate word for Haegon Blackfyre. A young man of twenty and two Haegon is noticeably larger than the common man, a head taller than most men in Tyrosh and twice as massive of the shoulder, described as having a 'chest like a large barrel'. His High Valyrian features only add to his intimidating form with smooth pale skin, long ivory hair and violet eyes he is said to have that in-human Valyrian beauty much like his father. He carries himself upright and with an air of authority, a man who expects others to fall in line behind him.

With the patronage of his grandfather, Haegon has his own armor.
His dark black mail is topped by an artful helm of an enraged Black dragon with red chasings. Massive, intimidating and difficult to deny Haegon I Blackfyre is dangerous to stand against.

[ ⚔ ]HistoryHaegon was young when Aegor Rivers carried him, his siblings and his mother to Tyrosh a child only four name days old. He remembers very little of his father or his life in  Westeros. If not for the stories of his uncle and mother he may well have forgotten both completely. Of course, he was curious, asking questions of his lineage and parentage, where he came from and why his family couldn't live there anymore. For a long while it seemed as if he'd be happy to simply remain in Tyrosh, his childhood was quite comfortable after all. 

However, as he grew Haegon began to realize what it really means to be a Blackfyre. He grew larger than either of his brothers and most other children in the palace of the Archon, and read further into his father's rebellion. What it was for, who fought in it, and why it mattered to him. The more he studied it the more it enraged and frustrated Haegon that his father had lost and that his family had been forced into exile. Why should one so weak as Daeron have ruled when Haegons father was so superior? It was unfair, and simply not right... so Haegon decided he would do something about it.

Still young he began to train with the exiled Westerosi Knights who had accompanied his family to Tyrosh. He was a quick study with the blade and became a capable warrior in short order. Without the trappings of chivalry, however, Haegon grew to be an underhanded fighter who has no qualms about using dirty tricks and honorless tactics to gain an edge. Of course one cannot spend so much time around knights and not gain some amount of decor, Haegon is noted as being honorable off the field and showing kindness to the downtrodden.

As time wore on Haegon, egged on by those who support him, has developed a rivalry with his older brother Daemon II who he sees as an unworthy heir of their father's name and of the Blackfyre family. He is prone to loud outbursts and arguments with his brother about who should lead the family in exile and whether or not Daemon is fit to lead at all. He refuses to relent, intent on taking his brother's position as heir and viewing Daemon as a pretender.

Haegon will not be denied his self-proclaimed birthright by anyone,
especially not his lesser brother. He is determined to one day claim what his father could not and sit upon the Iron throne as rightful king of the seven kingdoms.

It's been essentially done for days but since I can't be fucked waiting for @Inkarnate's bitch ass anymore, I'll just put it here. Obviously certain things are subject to change based on whatever the hell I end up getting told to do for the sake of Blackfyre Plotting cohesion.

Ulrick "Ricky" Dayne



[ ⚔ ]Origin195 AC, Starfall, an island of the Torrentine along the western Red Mountains of Dorne


[ ⚔ ]HouseDayne of Starfall, currently sworn to House Nymeros Martell


[ ⚔ ]ReputationLittle can be said about the second son of Starfall even amongst the Dornish, as the lad has only just begun entering his adulthood. Most Dornish lords knew of him purely as the diligent and dutiful squire of his brother before he abandoned Dorne. 

At the age of sixteen, during a tourney at Lemonwood, Ulrick was revealed to be the mystery knight who had unhorsed his own brother in the penultimate round before ultimately being bested by a knight of the Kingsguard. Many of the lords and ladies in attendance began to call him one of the most naturally gifted lances and swordsmen of his generation, a sentiment that has seemed to spread to every corner of Dorne. Whether the notion has gained much traction in any of the other kingdoms has yet to be seen.


[ ⚔ ]AppearanceDespite his martial nature and noticeably above average height, Ulrick Dayne has been described as looking boyish by his fellow Dornishmen. His profile remains remarkably unblemished by the Dornish sun and unscathed by the lances of his contemporaries, showing either his skill at arms or his lack of experience, depending on who you asked. Like his sibling, Ulrick retains the yellow blond hair typical of his mother's house and a pair of pale lavender eyes identical to the coloring found on his house's banners. Standing at roughly 5'10" and still growing, Ulrick is a sizable boy for his age, even if more lean and compact where most knights are walking bulks of muscle. An untrained eye likely wouldn't be able to tell that Ulrick even knew how to swing a sword if he dressed himself in the common nobleman's wear of Westeros and not the light and loose fitting sandsilk of the Dornish.


[ ⚔ ]HistoryBorn the second and final child of Lord Morgan Dayne and Jayne Fowler roughly sixteen years ago, Ulrick managed to avoid being the heir to Starfall by a whole five years thanks to his brother, Ander. As a young child, his father, grandfather and great uncle would often regale Ulrick with the tales and legends of their house, from those that ruled as Kings of the Torrentine in the time before Nymeria's War and Vorian Dayne, who fought against Mors Martell before becoming one of the six Dornish Kings of antiquity to be banished to the Wall by Nymeria, but the tales that stuck with Ulrick above the rest were the tales of the knights who wielded the Daynes' ancestral greatsword, Dawn, the Swords of the Morning. 

From the time he could lift a wooden toy longsword, Ulrick dedicated himself to the principles of knighthood, wanting nothing more than to live up to the legacy left by his ancestors. For every hour he spent learning letters or house sigils, he spent three in the training yard, clashing blunted swords and riding ponies with sons of servants. Before long, Ulrick's ability and dedication caught the eye of Ser Simon, who had him train with Ander and other squires at the young age of nine when he had only just been made a page. He was almost routinely bested by his brother in mock combat during this time, who seemed to find Ulrick's unwavering determination all too hilarious.

While tradition would normally see Ulrick squire for his father after his twelfth name-day, Lord Morgan had never been one for knighthood, odd as it may seem for a Dayne. As Simon was getting rather advanced in age, Ulrick was instead squired to his older brother on the same day Ander was anointed and swore his oaths. It was around this time that Morgan would negotiate Ander's marriage to a daughter of House Blackmont. Ulrick would be one of Ander's first squires and certainly the most overworked. While he served dutifully over the course of the next three years as his brother's eldest squire and mentor to two younger boys, Ulrick never had the opportunity to ride in tourneys or participate in melees, as the Great Spring Sickness was in full effect, and the Prince of Dorne had cut off the Prince's Pass, closed the kingdom's ports, and put a halt to any mass gatherings. To say Ulrick was dejected would be an understatement. Just when he thought he'd be able to travel and see the rest of Dorne and the Seven Kingdoms, he was stuck at home waiting for the end of an epidemic. 

The end of said epidemic would come in the beginning of 211 AC. To celebrate the end of the Sickness, a tourney was to be held at Lemonwood. Morgan Dayne thought it high time that Ander compete in his first tourney, and hinted at a knighthood for Ulrick upon their return. The brothers were accompanied by Ser Simon and Ander's young wife Marissa Blackmont, who, after a relatively easy birth years prior, had begun showing signs of pregnancy once more. Morgan himself chose not to attend. He would not live to see his children return home.

Throughout their time traveling to the seat of House Dalt, the Daynes heard news that a sworn brother of the Kingsguard would be in attendance and perhaps even enter the lists. When they arrived at Lemonwood, the rumor was proven correct. Excited at the news and unable to help himself, Ulrick managed to sneak away from his relatives and enter the competition as a mystery knight wearing a fine suit of scale armor, a spiked helm, and a veil of silver fabric to conceal his face.

Ulrick, announced as the Knight of the Silver Veil, performed remarkably in the tourney, unhorsing a number of his contemporaries in the lists. The most notable of these would be none other than his own brother, Ander. The match lasted only a single tilt, as Ander was flung from his horse with only a single lance. Those amongst the crowd could hardly believe that a Dayne of Starfall could be unseated so soon. Ander demanded that his opponent show his face, but Ulrick refused. Laughter rang throughout the lists, and Ander stormed off, embarrassed and ashamed.

In the final tilt, the Knight of the Silver Veil went against the Laughing Leopard himself, the first Dornishman to don the white cloak of the Kingsguard; Carles Santagar. The round ran long, with both competitors breaking nearly a handful of lances before the final clash, when Ser Carles' lance struck true and Ulrick was unhorsed. Bested, Ulrick was helped to his feet by Carles, who asked him to reveal his identity on a match well fought. Ulrick complied, and was met with a round of applause. He chose not to seek out his brother's face amongst the onlookers.

When the family returned to Starfall, they found their mother in mourning, as Morgan had passed a fortnight prior. While the household prepared for the funeral of their father, Ander was named the new Lord of Starfall. What followed for several fortnights was the monotony of routine in Starfall. Appointments, a changing of administration, a birth of a second daughter, so on. Though one thing was for certain: Ander was not going to name Ulrick a knight any time soon, still embarrassed at his defeat in the lists at Lemonwood, and so, Ulrick's life seemed to come to an abrupt halt.

That is, until, a raven arrived from Sunspear. Addressed not to Ander, but Ulrick. The younger of the Daynes had been summoned to the capital of Dorne, and he has not returned to Starfall since. He has not felt obligated to send correspondence to his family as to his whereabouts or goings on.

Welp here is essentially finalized House Reyne, criticism welcome.
House Reyne

“Words are cheap, Action aren’t"

Head of the House

Robert Reyne

[ ⚔ ] S Y N O P S I S

House Reyne is an old house, with a history stretching back to the First Men. They have long been an ambitious house always seeking out opportunities to strengthen themselves. During the Dance of the Dragons they supported the Greens with hopes of being rewarded for supporting Aegon II.

[ ⚔ ] M I L I T A R Y  S T R E N G T H

House Reyne on its own can raise about five thousand men. House Reyne also has access to about 250 knights. Though like most rich houses House Reyne also frequently hires mercenaries to augment their forces, so the amount of men they have on call fluctuates.

During the Blackfyre Rebellion Robb came to his brother Robert with a plan to support the Blackfyres. Robert, while seeing a chance to advance the house and possibly to replace the Lannisters as the Wardens in the West, knew that should the Blackfyres lose House Reyne would be punished for supporting the rebels. So he struck an accord with his brother saying that Robb could go out and support the Blackfyres, but that should they lose he would be disowned and the family would distance itself away from him. And so with the plan known only to the two of them Robb left, and when the Blackfyres lost he was disowned and fled with the Blackfyres to Tyrosh. During the aftermath House Reyne was able to avoid most repercussions due to their quick disowning and condemnation of Robb Reyne, declaring that he acted on his own and with no support from House Reyne. During the Spring sickness House Reyne itself was able avoid most of the sickness by hiding in their subterranean castle, though their lands were hit by the sickness. With the country weakened by sickness and with whispers of a possible return of the Blackfyres, Robert sees a chance to advance once more.

[ ⚔ ]HistoryBorn in the year 161 AC Robert is the older of the two Reyne brothers. At a young age he was captivated by how his father ran his court and dedicated himself to learning more about how the courts of Westeros are run. His father noticed his interest and was keen to ensure that his heir learned all that he could. Through his education Robert became quite the ambitious man who would exploit opportunities to advance his house. When the Blackfyre rebellion began and Robb came to him with plans to support the Blackfyres Robert was more cautious. He knew that should the Blackfyres lose House Reyne would be punished should they have supported them. But he also saw  the opportunities that supporting the Blackfyres could bring and decided to let his brother go support them on the condition that should they lose he would be disowned and exiled. When the Blackfyres lost Robert was quick to disown his brother and distance his actions away from the house. In the years since the Blackfyre rebellion Robert has been focusing on ensuring his house is strong and ready for the inevitable return of the Blackfyres. With Westeros devastated by plague Robert sees a chance once more to advance.

[ ⚔ ]HistoryBorn in the year 167 AC Robb is the younger of the two Reyne brothers. Where his brother was captivated with how the courts in Westeros worked, Robb was more attracted to become a knight. As Robb grew it quickly became obvious that he had natural talent when it came to fighting, and in quick order began his squirehood as soon as he could. During this squirehood this natural talent was cultivated even more, and when Robb grew old enough for Knighthood he was noted as one of the finest knights in Westeros. When the Blackfyre rebellion began Robb was quick to approach his brother with plans to support the Blackfyres. While he eventually did get his brother’s blessing in was on the condition that if the Blackfyres lost Robb would be disowned and liably forced into exile.Despite distinguishing himself several times through the rebellion the disastrous battle at the Red Grass Field broke the rebel’s resolve and Robb followed Aegor Rivers and the Blackfyres into exile. Despite his exile Robb has been loath to allow his skills to deteriorate and has continued to train. Rather than follow Bittersteel as a sellsword Robb chose to remain with the Blackfyre heirs as a guest of the Archon of Tyrosh. In the last couple of years Robb has been training the Blackfyre heirs in the ways of knightly combat.
