House Darry of Darry

Myra Darry

Myra Darry, Lady of Darry Age: 40 as of 289AC Bio: Born in a pregnancy which killed her mother, Myra would be the sixth of ten children had by Lord Rodrick. Unique to her, Myra would be the one to finally inherit their family' lands and titles. She grew up reading books and fashioning dresses for herself and her sisters, both older and younger. Illness stole away one sibling, and then another. Winter claimed cousins and bandits more. War called forth the Darrys, Lord Darry and his sons falling on both sides of the line. Myra's husband, a Mooton of unmatched gentleness, died in bed only a year after Ormund's crowning. This left Myra to look after the lands on her own, her children dead from illness and violence. The years have weighed heavily on her. Traits: - 3 Survival: never ill, never feeling weakly. Perhaps the Gods have gifted her with immortality. - 3 Wealth: She has lived long enough to understand the concepts of making money, of using wealth to her advantage. - 3 Charisma: Once a sweet young girl, now a grown woman who has been bedded and wedded, who has attended a thousand days of court and won the hearts of noblemen and commoner alike. - 3 Spying: What else could she do? Men wanted her lands, women wanted her dead. Politics was the battlefield and knowledge the soldiers.

Kermit Darry

Kermit Darry, the Farmer Age: 13 as of 289AC Bio: When Darry answered the joint calls of King and Lord, they did so divided. Lord Rodrick took his supporters south, to join his King and Kingsguard brother against Ormund Baratheon. Lyman Darry, Rodrick's eldest nephew instead chose to answer the Tullys. Kermit was only a young boy then, but he left with his father and journeyed to Riverrun, where he was made comfortable as befitted a nobleman and loyal vassal. His father was to die for Tully. Half a dozen others were to die for the king. When peace came things did not improve, for Kermit had to bury dead children and grown men, fallen victim to a bandit's arrow or the chill of the night. Traits: - 2 Survival: He alone has survived to support his family's line. - 1 Duel: He is a noble, and a noble needs to wield a blade. - 1 Joust: One day he will be a lord. He hopes to be a knight as well.

OOC: I already will post the biography of my characters, believeing that the moderation approves upon my claim.
Should this not be the case, ignore this post, as it contains for the moment only the 2 relevant Targaryens, which I keep so far as lore-accurate as possible.

Viserys III. Targaryen, exiled claimant of the Iron Throne

Born in: 276 AC (13 years at game start) Biography: Being born as the second child of King Aerys II. 'The Mad' Targaryen and Queen Rhaella Targaryen, Viserys Targaryen envisioned already as a child a rough future, as he did not only lost his eldest brother Prince Rhaegar Targaryen to the warhammer of Ormund Baratheon, resulting in Aerys nameing him his heir, once words spread upon the aftermath of the Trident, but as well was forced by the rebell's forces to retreat with his pregnant mother to Dragonstone, where he was crowned by her as the true heir of the Targaryen line. Soon his mother died unexpected during the birth of his younger sister during a storm night within the walls of Dragonstone and left the young King-in-exile on his own among treacherous forces upon the fortress. Only due to few loyal retainers under the leadership of Ser Willem Darry, who was the main iniator of smuggleing the children to Braavos instead of leaveing them to the mercy of the Baratheon ursurper, Viserys escaped with his sister from Dragonstone alive, where they lived under the protection of the knight. Even though the following life was rather hard for the boy, he never lost the hope of some day being able to reclaim his father's crown and the Iron Throne, while he was in exile, the crown of his mother Rhaella being one of few valuable possessions, which let him believe that Ser Willem would arrange old and new alliances to restore his rightful reign. But with the start of the Greyjoy rebellion, the loyalist knight, who protected the children died after a long illness - and with him and any hope for a glorious return gone, the former servants of the knight forced the boy and his sister out of the safety of the House with the Red door... Traits: Survival +1 Capture +1 Wealth +1 Charisma +1

Daenerys 'Stormborn' Targaryen

Born in: 284 AC (5 years at game start) Biography: The third daughter of King Aerys II. Targaryen and his sister-wife was born when everything had already been lost and when Queen Rhaella had been forced into exile at Dragonstone. People would or will call her later 'Stormborn', as she was born during a storm night, which caused the rest of the Targaryen fleet, gathered around the island fortress to crumble under the forces of nature and resulted also into the death of her mother. Her older brother Viserys still took the burden to care for her afterwards, but will always blame her in thoughts for the death of his beloved mother. Like Viserys she was brought to Braavos by Ser Willem Darry, which she would keep in good memory, as he treated her well and gave her for a short period of time a safe and maybe slightly happy childhood within the walls of a house in Braavos with a red-painted door and a lemon tree in its' backyard. But with the death of the benefitting loyalist knight, the young child will be dependent upon her brother's moves and their further destiny will remain unconcious. Traits: /

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

House Estermont

Lady Liane Estermont, Lady of Greenstone and Estermont

Born in: 272 AC (17 years at game start) Biography: Being the only surviving and legitime heir of the former Lord Joffrey Estermont, Liane was made Lady of Estermont already at the age of 11. Even in her childhood, Liane was a playful person, which had not even changed after the death of her father and her three brothers and was left without any further guidance, as her mother had died already during her birth. Nontheless, she was always supported by her uncle Ser Henry Estermont, who was named her steward, when she was unable to rule and continiued this duty since present day, which turned the economy of Estermont not necessarily into chaos. Liane's personality is slightly unstable, as she prefers to be not bothered with too many problems and prefers her life as a lady behind the windows of her castle, careing not all too much for military duties and seeing herself as the sole ruleress of the keep, hopeing for a romantic marriage at some day. Liane had also been fond of Lord Renly in general and caught an eye on him, as she could imagine him even as a suitable husband for her, may it be for reasons of him being partly being Estermont in blood as well or for reasons of royality. In any case she prefers his words over the ones of Stannis and even Ormund. Traits: Survival +2 Charisma +3

Ser Henry Estermont, Greenstone's Steward

Born in: 253 AC (38 years at game start) Biography: Being a stern supporter of the Baratheons since start of the rebellion due to their close family ties towards the three brothers, Ser Amory Estermont was serving under Stannis, when Storm's End was put under siege by the Tyrells and therefore the main reason, why he survived unlike his elder brother Lord Joffrey Estermont, who died along with his three sons in the battle at the Trident. When the rebellion ended, Henry was glad to have fallen the right decision and returned to Greenstone, where Joffrey's sole daughter Liane was named Lady of Estermont. Nontheless, Lords consider him and his sons as the real ruler of the keep, as the young lady was less experienced when it came to politics and she trusted Henry with the stewardship of Greenstone. Even though Henry is loyal towards Renly and would never think about betraying him, he pities Stannis for haveing been send to Dragonstone instead of nameing him the rightful Lord of the Stormlands. During his stewardship, some knights and even few lords suggested Ser Henry in secret that it would probably be the better choice for him to disinherit Joffrey's daughter and overtake the lordship by himself - yet however, Henry could only shook his head about those proposals, as the respect towards his elder brother and his last child were greater than his desire for ruleing the lands of his family. With the Greyjoy rebellion breaking out, House Estermont joined the Stormlands' fleet as one of their first bannermen, mainly due to family ties. Along with his son Gendry and the bastard son of his elder brother Alester Storm, Ser Henry leads the fleet of House Estermont directly into the battlefield to spread the fury of the Stag upon the Ironborn. Traits: Survival +3 Duel + 2 Battles +2 Naval +2

Gendry Estermont, son of the Steward

Born in: 270 AC (19 years at game start) Biography: The firstborn son of Ser Henry. Like his father, Henry is a loyal bannerman of House Estermont, even though he is not fond of nameing Renly the Lord of the Stormlands in secret. The boy witnessed the siege of Storm's End partly, as he was leading the fleet of the Estermonts to Stannis' aid, ensureing that the smugglers were able to maintain the supplies upon the keep and to snipe down the enemy vessels, whereever it was possible, being therefore an admirer of Stannis' genius military leadership. He gladly sailed with him to Dragonstone, when it came to finding the last children of the Targaryen line and claiming the island for the kingdom of Ormund Baratheon - yet however, he was shocked that the King had named Stannis Lord of Dragonstone, when the rebellion was over. Being a man of the sea, Gendry is a better admiral than a good knight. Nontheless he knows how to fight and made experiences recently on Pyke in direct combat. Traits: Survival +1 Duel +1 Naval Battle +2 Battle +1

Since HB moved my post I'm posting here again.
Tarbeck, thanks to Poach for the backstory.

Bio

Adrien's great grandfather was Lord Roland Tarbeck, who is best known as the grandfather of the last Lord Tarbeck, Walderan. Roland's third born son and Adrien's grandfather, Ser Harald Tarbeck, left the homelands as a young man to see the Free Cities, as he was free from any responsibilities as an heir. He spent twenty years there, working at various times as a sellsword, bodyguard and city watch lieutenant in Braavos, before meeting and eventually marrying the daughter of a wealthy Westerosi merchant. Harald never returned to Westeros, his family having assumed him dead or lost after decades of no contact. Adrien's father Gyles Tarbeck was born in Braavos to the couple in 231AL and stayed some years in the city before himself taking work as a captain in the merchant fleets that sailed the Narrow Sea, which eventually resulted in him meeting Adrien's mother, the sister of a minor landed Knight from Greenstone, a vassal of House Estermont in the Stormlands. They were wed and Adrien was born in 261AL in the humble keep of his uncle. Gyles had wished to return to Tarbeck Hall, where his own father Harald had started life, but his wife's pregnancy in 260AL gave fortuitous pause to his plans, and Adrien was born in 261AL, the same year the rebellion resulted in House Tarbeck being all-but wiped out. The news broke Adrien's father, who fell into drink and died in a drunken rage fifteen years later, leaving Adrien the only trueborn Tarbeck left. He remained in Greenstone until 28 years old protected under the adopted surname Wraith, serving as a man-at-arms in the employ of his Knightly uncle and earning himself a Knighthood in the process, when a fire in the keep killed much of the household, including Adrien's uncle and mother. With little left to tie him to Greenstone, Adrien now sets out to trace his family heritage.

"Reapers of Men"

House Harlaw of Harlaw
Lords of Ten Towers and the Island of Harlaw
Vassal houses; Volmark, Myre, Kenning and Stonetree

House Harlaw is one of the oldest and most powerful houses on the Iron Islands, spending the house's early years subjugating their neighboring Ironmen until they ruled as sole Rock and Salt kings on Harlaw Island, from which they raided the First Men and later the Andal kingdoms.

During the early years when the Iron Islands were ruled by an elected High King, the Harlaws were often chosen to rule whenever a Goodbrother or Greyiron had ended his rule poorly with defeat or shame, being influential, strong and rich enough to gain the trust of the other kings. It's most successful king, Erich Harlaw the fifth conquered Fair Isle and his son slew the king of the Reach during the siege of Oldtown, but Harlaw's height of power was short and it ended with High King Erich's death, this apex of power for house Harlaw never came again, but they remained powerful players in Iron Islander politics.

House Harlaw has ever since been ruled by other Ironborn houses, loyally following their lead into victory and defeat. Most recently sacrificing it's lord, heir and fleet at the battle of Fair Isle.

Currently ruled by Lord Sigfryd Harlaw, second son of lord Rodrik, Sigfryd has briefly ruled from the Ten Towers as his father and brother are away campaigning. Knowing defeat is upon them, with the destruction of the Iron Fleet and seeing that the entire realm is against them as the Baratheon fleet comes to burn, his goal is to ensure the survival of house Harlaw at any cost.

(Lord Sigfryd with his sister, Denys.)

Sigfryd Harlaw, son of Rodrik

Born: 268 AL (aged 21 at the Siege of Pyke)
+2 Naval Battles
+2 Survival
+2 Wealth

Sigfryd is the second oldest son of Rodrik the Reader, but unlike his older brother Farwynd, looks not much like a Harlaw, but instead takes after his mother, Lyra Blacktyde, wearing dark blonde hair and blue-grey eyes. Sigfryd is below average height but is heavy in his build and is rarely seen without wearing his trademark goatskin draped across his wide shoulders.
Due to his young age and Rodrik's belief that Balon's war was doomed from the start, he remained as the temporary ruler of Harlaw whilst Rodrik sailed under the Greyjoy banner in the raids against Seagard, Lannisport and other parts of the west coast.


(Captain Qarl Harlaw)

Qarl Harlaw, uncle of lord Sigfryd

Born: 249 (aged 40 at the Siege of Pyke)

+3 Raider
+2 Battles
+3 Naval Battles
+2 Survival

Qarl is a devoted zealot of the Drowned Gods and welcomed Balon's kingship with great enthusiasm. He was one of the many opponents to Quellon's reforms and often harassed the Septons Rodrik had invited to Ten Towers, once going so far that he broke a holy man's rib cage and impregnating a Septa, for which she was promptly executed. For these "crimes" Qarl was sent to live in Lordsport where he eventually joined the Iron Fleet as one of its captains under Victarion Greyjoy. Qarl has dark black eyes and paling hair. He isvery tall, standing somewhat above six and a half feet, with lean slim muscles and quick reflexes, making him a worthwhile opponent to any knight on the continent. Qarl's son Alfred is very unlike his father, rumored to be very feminine and too pretty to be called a man. However, Alfred still does his best to make his grim father proud.

[COLOR=rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.701961)]Born in: 269 AC (20 years at game start)
Biography: From the earliest he could remember Valdemar loved the sea and all her mysteries. While his mother was away working as a tavern made he would play alone in the sea surrounding Pyke, swimming and watching the ships sail by. His mother was a commoner rock wife, but her husband had died early in a raid. She claimed his real father was one of the Greyjoys, but none of them moved to claim him and so he shunned them as well. He first went to sea at age ten as a cabin boy aboard an Ironborn raiding ship and ever since then, his heart longed for the sea. Land was an oddity for him, he was rarely on it and when he was he felt a bit uncomfortable. Yet, as the years went by he fought in many raids and battles. Earning loot, glory, and now, with the last big raid, enough to start a mercenary company of his own. [/COLOR][COLOR=rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.701961)]

Dagmer Cleftjaw

Age: 42 (Born 247 AL) Captain of Foamdrinker Dagmer has snow white hair and a hideous scar. A longaxe blow had nearly killed him as a child, splintering his jaw, smashing his front teeth and left him four lips instead of two. He has a shaggy beard, but the hair does not grow where the scar is. He wears many rings, gold and silver and bronze, set with sapphire and garnet and dragonglass, all of which he won by the iron price. In his youth, Dagmer Cleftjaw was the most dreaded warrior of the Iron Islands. Dagmer once spent a summer reaving in the Stepstones with a young Balon Greyjoy.

Trystane Bar Emmon
Born in 262 A.L. Seven-and-Twenty years old as of 289 A.L.

Trystane is a distant relative of Lord Bar Emmon. He was raised and educated in Sharp Point. After his eighteenth name day he decided to tour the Free Cities. He visited Braavos, Pentos, Tyrosh, Lys and Volantis. It was during these travels that he learnt the art of commerce. When Trystane returned to Sharp Point he had a fiery argument with Lord Bar Emmon and he was ordered to leave the castle and never return. The rumours are that this argument was about Trystane's homosexuality and that Lord Bar Emmon couldn't stand having a homosexual in his court. And thus he left Sharp Point to stablish a Merchant House in King's Landing.

Trystane is tall and muscular. His hair is the colour of chocolate and his eyes are blue as sapphires. He keeps his face clean shaven.
Trystane is, overall, a very handsome man.

Lady Rylene Mooton


Rylene is the daughter of late Lord Mooton of Maidenpool. She was born after two healthy boys, who brought their house great honour and fame. Both in their own way. Myles Mooton was a famous and talented knight, who was the friend and squire of Rhaegar Targaryen and was knighted by the crown prince himself. His bold manner however proved to be his undoing and was slain by Ormund Baratheon at the Battle of the Bells, defending the honour of the royal House Targaryen. It was generally believed that Myles would become a member of the Kings Guard when a position would present itself. A great honour to his house. Her other brother, Willem Mooton was less of a famous knight. He was however a skilled diplomat and courtier and lived at the Red Keep. He died at the Battle of the Trident, leading the troops of Maidenpool.

Rylene was brought up as a typical Riverlandish lady; she learned the banners of the great houses and was thought by her septa in all the qualities of a true noble lady. While young and sometimes naive, she tries her best to appear to others as a determined and ferocious leader. Trying to serve her house in the best way possible. She was brought up in a Targaryen Loyalist household.

His life was rather like most heirs until his father became Lord of Duskendale, learning military and courtly arts. While his father attended to establishing control of the former Darklyn vassals and reorganizing the military of the Dusk Coast, Ossifer handled rooting out any plots against his father and the economy of the city, turning it from a declining port town losing much of it's mercantile traffic to King's Landing or Rosby into a city on it's way to being a major port once more that will host merchants from across the Narrow Sea and other regions of the realm. After his father's death in 280 AL from illness, Ossifer has ruled the city, along with leading a section of the royal army under Connington at the Battle of the Bells and in the Trident, after which he led a combined force of men from Duskendale and Crackclaw in several skirmishes against some rebel lords' forces while Ormund's main host marched on the capital.

House Redwyne

Lord Addam Redwyne of the Arbor.

Age: 31

Marital Status: Unwed

Bio: Addam is a rogue, a sneak, a villain, and a madman. He was the fourth son of Lord Rumford Redwyne, and was thus incredibly unlikely to inherit the Arbor. Originally, he was sent to the citadel, but he was removed by his father after it was discovered he had hung his teacher by his own Maester's chain. Therefore, he was sent to a career in the faith, his father praying that hopefully the Septons would put him down the right path. No such luck. Addam burnt down the sept that his father had sent him to, stole the valuables within, and absconded on the nearest ship to Essos. Operating under the guise of a hedge knight, Addam fought for various mercenary companies, namely the windblown and the company of the cat, before joining the Brave Companions. The sadistic company of killers suited Addam perfectly, and he was free to torture, rape and kill as he pleased. For a time, he was content, but Addam soon grew bored. Leaving the company, Addam traveled to the mysterious city of Qohor. It is unknown exactly what events transpired during his stay in the city, but merchants and travelers from the far east speak of a bloodthirsty Westerosi priest who's taste for blood was only quenched by the endless human sacrifice paid to the black goat of Qohor. It is assumed Addam had grown bored of Essos too, for two years ago he finally returned to Westeros. Lord Rumford was on his deathbed, and Addam had seemed to have hit a great stroke of luck. Two of his brothers had died during the rebellion, and now all that stood in his way was his final brother, Paxter. Another great stroke of luck occurred; Paxter met his death in a tragic, catastrophic accident: he drank too much wine, and choked to death from his own obscene gluttony (or so the story goes). Addam quickly secured the Lordship, conveniently arriving to claim his rightful place before Paxter's corpse was cold.

Addam is charismatic, and charming, yet sadistic and dangerous. He craves excitement, and bloodshed, and has resolved to taste every mortal pleasure the earth has to offer. In other words, he is wholly mad.

House Dayne of Starfall

Vorian Dayne, Lord of Starfall, Head of House Dayne & High Lord of the Red Mountain's
Rank: Lord's Bannerman
Age: 53

Vorian the Forgotten, he calls himself. His sister, Lady Allyria, was as beautiful as the Sunrise. She is gone. His brother, Ser Arthur Dayne, was the Sword of the Morning and the pride of house Dayne. He is gone too. Vorian was left with his siblings lost and his family without consideration. He has kept his family from decay and saw to the survival of his house economically through the toughest of times, being of sounder mind than body. He was never the warrior his brother was. He was never a warrior period. His intellect saw that his house was well tended, including its secrets. His platinum blond hair and deep blue eyes can be unsettling at times.

Greylock Sand, Protector of Starfall, "The Pride of Starfall"
Bastard Son of Vorian-ish
Age:23

Greylock is a jovial man and an honorable one. He is almost unanimously loved by all in Starfall for his charisma and caring. He takes after his uncle in ability on the battlefield and none fail to acknowledge that. As a bastard in Dorne he holds the name of Sand but feels as though he could not have been accepted by a more loving father. His uncle he only got sporadic opportunities to see but when he did he looked on with adoration. It is said that when his uncle died Greylock petitioned his father a hundred times for men to travel north for justice. This was only allayed when Dawn, the ancestral sword of his house, was returned by Stark. Upon the death of his aunt, he stood firm for his family. Though others blamed Stark for both deaths, Greylock maintains that he returned Dawn with honor and that must be observed. He spends his nights before retiring, staring on at Dawn, hoping to one day be worthy of wielding it.

Edric Dayne, Heir to Starfall
Legitimate son of Vorian Dayne
Age: 22

Edric was once a lighthearted kid. He laughed he played, he loved those around him and they loved him. After the deaths of his uncle and aunt his mind went to a dark place however. As his father did, he took that anger and kept it inside, letting it bundle into a mass of hate and disgust. His brother Greylock tried to pull him out but Edric hated him more for it. Greylock maintained Stark was a man of honor and Edric hated them both for that. Though he shows flashes of the boy he once was, his anger consumes him. He is a severe man, not prone to forgiveness.

Olyvar Dayne,
Second son of Vorian Dayne
Age: 16

Olyvar is much like Greylock in manner of temperament. He is kind hearted and eager to learn. He is a blend of ability in the practice yard and versed in the economics of Starfall. He presents himself well, but does not do so often as Vorian is content keeping him tucked away for fear of something happening. He looks up to Greylock and fears Edric. He has Greylocks light blond hair and violet eyes.

Allana Dayne
Twin sister of Olyvar Dayne
Age: 16

Allana is every bit the beauty her aunt was. She was humble but had dreams of a noble marriage and a "happily ever after". Once her aunt died however, and Edric turned to the worse, she has put it off. Not much is known about her as she is seen less than he brother Olyvar, but they say her voice sings to the hearts of men before the meaning of their words is clear. She maintains platinum blond hair and violet eyes.

Nymeria Sand
Bastard Daughter of Vorian
Age: 18

Nymeria lives, loves, laughs, plays. She has never felt burdened by he family and does not feel strong obligation or affiliation with them but she honors them all. She looks more like her mother with dark brown hair and blue eyes, but can have a temper.

House Mallister of Seagard
High Lords of Ironman's Bay
'Above the rest'

House Mallister

History

The Chronicled History of the House Mallister In order to give a sprinkling of insight into the proud and noble family that is House Mallister, it is paramount to point out firstly that whilst many lords of the realm bickered and enacted their political manoeuvres throughout Westeros solely for personal gain the historic House of Mallister carried themselves more nobly. Adhering to strict codes of loyalty and patriotism for the realm, they conducted themselves on the treacherous high seas which made for a unforgiving buffer between Westeros and the Iron Isles. Knowing that dedicated service to the protection of the realm would provide it's own due rewards over time, House Mallister secured itself as the key protectors of the western coast and overlords of Ironman's Bay, creating a vast and glorious navy in which to back their position. Over time Seagard became a naval fortress, home to the 'Booming Tower', a Bell which was so legendary and great that it's sound could penetrate the eerie mist which covered the coast and reach for many miles around, stopping dead many Ironborn raiding parties in their tracks. In it's early days it was key to the protection of the realm from these barbaric raiders who proved a menacing and deadly threat to the stability of the realm, revered by many as the main reason this threat diminished over the years since. Yet as this threat waned so to did the power and distinction held by the House Mallister, leaving many of their rivals to perceive their notion of being a powerful player in the realm as pure arrogance and idle dreaming of past glories. It took many years for anything worth chronicling about the 'sleeping giant' that was House Mallister to occur, most notably the House was accused of being disloyal to the crown and treason by the Targaryen King resulting in their allegiance to the side of Osmund Baratheon in the resulting Rebellion. Lord Jason Mallister earned distinction in the climactic 'Battle of the Trident' for slaying many lords in single combat sworn to Dragonstone, resulting in a close relationship with the crown and increasing favour for his family. It was not until the rejuvenation of the dormant Ironborn threat during the Greyjoy Rebellion that the house did truly return to its lofty heights at the forefront of Naval protection for the realm. The resulting naval conflict near Lannisport proved that only House Mallister had the capabilities to combat this menace and protect the realm, with the Greyjoys enjoying many successes in the early stages of the way against Lannister forces. Once the Ironborn turned their sights on the one fortress which stood between them and dimination of the seas, Seagard, they befell upon their greatest defeat. Balon Greyjoy's firstborn and heir Rodrik was slain by Lord Jason Mallister and his army cast back into the sea from which they came from under the walls of Seagard. This led to the start of the turnaround in the war as sheer numerical superiority led to victory for the Iron Throne and the end of the rebellion.

Lord Tristan Mallister

Lord Tristan Mallister 'Lord of Seagard, Slayer of Ironborn' Age: 28 Married(?): No Heir: Zachery Mallister (Younger Brother) Equipment: None Traits: Naval Superiority (Naval Battles) +3 : Tristan is an accomplished commander of the seas. Charisma + 3 : Tristan has a alluring way with words, often using this to his advantage. Wealth +1 : Tristan is somewhat adept with managing the finances of his house. Born to the late Lord Jason Mallister of Seagard, Hero of the Trident, Tristan was the eldest of four siblings sired between Jason and his wife Alysanne. He was born in a time where the power of House Mallister was diminishing and it's supremacy of the seas was being questioned by many throughout the seven kingdoms, yet his father Lord Jason was a stern believer in the Mallister way in which they would be rewarded by serve to the realm and patience that they would be rewarded for this services when the gods decreed it be so. This led to Tristan being brought up to respect the ancient Mallister ways and traditions, taking the way of the seas like his father and his father before him and so on. As expected from one of an ancient bloodline, he excelled in command of the seas whilst his younger twin brothers took other paths which became more natural to them. His time spent on the ships became very profitable as he became respected by his crew, learning the ways of the tongue in order to appease them and becoming a master of wit and negotiation, something his father took great care in nurturing and also became wary of. It was very clear Tristan was becoming well versed in the arts of politics and he paid keen interest in the political machinations of the realm, something Mallister Lords strayed away from. However it was clear that Tristan would bring a new way of thinking to the House once he became lord and bring the House into the political arena which was the seven realms. Tristan's younger siblings adored and admired him as they grew up together when he was not at seas, he valued family above all else and this showed in his interactions with them as he became their protector as House Mallister was the protector of the seas. He was always happy to listen to their interests and opinions of any matters, from whether Zhoe was the best at hide-and-seek to who would be the next King, in return they would supply him with all they knew which was a useful commodity since they seemed to pick up all sorts of interesting knowledge when they played around the castle grounds, often unnoticed by the guards. His twin younger brothers were glad that he was so proficient at command of the seas, allowing them to further they learning in career paths of their choosing, Tom taking up the art of coin and Edmund becoming a learned scholar and administrator. They would both later become great assets to Tristan, serving as his advisors once he took rule of Segard. Zhoe however developed into a fine young lady, inheriting her mother's elegance and beauty; yet this meant she was often separated from her siblings and taught the skills needed by a lady of the realm by her mother in the castle. When she did see them however, she would be beaming with joy and often joyously charge towards them on sight, resulting in matter humorous incidents over the years.
