Lord of Blackwater Bay is a title granted to sellsail and pirate Salladhor Saan, who styled himself the Prince of the Narrow Sea, by Lord Alester Florent, Hand of the King to Stannis Baratheon, following the defeat at the Battle of the Blackwater. Citing his new title, Saan then sets his fleet to intercepting any trade ships crossing Blackwater Bay and "taxing" them on their goods, as the defeat at the Blackwater robbed him of his chance to plunder King's Landing and exact payment for his services.

Quotes

Who has suffered more from pirates than Salladhor Saan? I ask only what is due me. Much gold is owed, oh yes, but I am not without reason, so in place of coin I have taken a handsome parchment, very crisp. It bears the name and seal of Lord Alester Florent, the Hand of the King. I am made Lord of Blackwater Bay, and no vessel may be crossing my lordly waters without my lordly leave, no. And when these outlaws are trying to steal past me in the night to avoid my lawful duties and customs, why, they are no better than smugglers, so I am well within my rights to seize them.

Appearance and Character

See also: Images of Rattleshirt

The Lord of Bones is a small man with a knobby chin, thin mustache, and pinched cheeks. His eyebrows join over the bridge of his nose, he has a widow's peak and dark hair.

The Lord of Bones is mocked as Rattleshirt due to his armor, which is made up of loosely-tied bones that clatter as he moves. The bones come from aurochs, cows, elk, goats, humans, mammoths, and sheep.

History

Before Mance Rayder made peace between them while becoming King-Beyond-the-Wall, Rattleshirt warred with Harma Dogshead.

Lord of Bones - by Amok ©

When the Night's Watch plans for the coming battle with the gathered wildlings, they are wary of a few of the leaders, Rattleshirt among them.

Rattleshirt leads a party of fourteen free folk and eight dogs that catches up with Qhorin Halfhand and Jon Snow in the Skirling Pass. He claims Ebben's steel battle-axe and orders Ragwyle to gut Jon. Qhorin has secretly encouraged Jon to join the wildlings, however, and the Lord of Bones reluctantly accepts Jon into his party after the youth slays Qhorin with the aid of his direwolf, Ghost. Rattleshirt claims some of the Halfhand's bones after his body is burned in a pyre.

Might be you fooled these others, crow, but don't think you'll be fooling Mance. He'll take one look a' you and know you're false. And when he does, I'll make a cloak o' your wolf there, and open your soft boy's belly and sew a weasel up inside.

– the Lord of Bones to Jon Snow

Jon: Qhorin told me to pretend to join the wildlings. 'You must not balk, whatever is asked of you,' he said. He knew they would make me kill him. Rattleshirt was going to kill him anyway, he knew that too.

Janos: So now you claim the great Qhorin Halfhand feared this creature?

Rattleshirt: All men fear the Lord o' Bones.

- Jon Snow, Janos Slynt, and the Lord of Bones

Melisandre: So long as he wears the gem he is bound to me, blood and soul. This man will serve you faithfully. The flames do not lie, Lord Snow.

Lord of Casterly Rock and Lady of Casterly Rock is the title held by the noble seated at the castle of Casterly Rock since Aegon's Conquest.

History

Following the Field of Fire,

Lord Jason Lannister supported King Aegon II Targaryen during the Dance of the Dragons, but was killed in the Battle at the Red Fork.

Several decades later, during the First Blackfyre Rebellion, Lord Damon Lannister was defeated by Ser Quentyn Ball outside the gates of Lannisport. Tybolt inherited the lordship from Damon when the latter died of the Great Spring Sickness in 210 AC. His own death, two years later, occurred under suspicious circumstances.

Tytos inherited Casterly Rock in 244 AC. During his reign, the power of House Lannister waned, as Tytos was weak-willed and indecisive, and was willing to forgive most debts and insults. His eldest son, Tywin Lannister, took matters into his own hands when he arrested Lord Walderran Tarbeck. When Tarbeck's wife, Lady Ellyn Reyne, took three Lannisters captive in response, Tytos ordered everyone released. Nigh on a year later, both House Tarbeck and House Reyne were destroyed by Tywin during the Reyne-Tarbeck revolt.

Tywin inherited Casterly Rock in 267 AC. He served as Hand of the King for Aerys II Targaryen for twenty-one years.

Behind the Scenes

In earlier prints of *The World of Ice & Fire, neither Cersei nor Cerelle Lannister are marked as "ruling lord or kings" in the Lannister Lineage. As both have been specifically stated as "Lady of Casterly Rock", this is an ommission. Tywin's brother Kevan Lannister is marked as a lord of Casterly Rock in *The World of Ice & Fire. However, the Appendix of *A Feast for Crows* clearly lists Cersei as the Lady of Casterly Rock, as does the Appendix of *A Dance with Dragons*, despite the charges of high treason. Even if Cersei was stripped from her rights to Casterly Rock, she has two heirs who are to inherit the seat before Kevan, indicating this likely is a mistake.

They were wed in 187 AC in King's Landing, after which Maron officially knelt for Daeron, bringing Dorne under the rule of the Iron Throne.

The concessions which Maron had won during his negotiations with Daeron and the increasing Dornish influence at court caused Daeron's other lords to grow dissatisfied. These complaints, among others, were reasons causing several lords to oppose Daeron II's rule during the First Blackfyre Rebellion. Dorne sided with Daeron during the rebellion.

Lord of the Rainwood is a title devised by Stannis Baratheon and granted by him to Ser Davos Seaworth, along with that of Admiral of the Narrow Sea, when he names the former smuggler as his Hand of the King, thus promoting him from a mere landed knight to a high lord on par with the rest of the stormlords.

It is not mentioned if this title makes Davos the liege lord of the noble houses established on the Rainwood - as, for example, the Lord of the Marches is not the liege lord of the rest of marcher lords. It also not mentioned if the title will pass to Davos' successor.

Known Lords of the Tides




Annotations from item #46268148:

The Lord of the Waters is the self-fashioned title of a pirate king who has installed himself on Torturer's Deep in the Stepstones. He has "monstrous large" three-decker warships.

Presumably he is Aurane Waters, former Grand Admiral to Queen Regent Cersei Lannister, who ordered the construction of a fleet of dromonds and crewed them with criminals,

The title may be a play on Aurane's bastard surname Waters and the title of House Velaryon, *Lord of the Tides*.

Lord of the crossing is a game played at the Twins by House Frey; the "Lord of the Crossing" is one of the titles used by Lord Frey, as the bridge at the Twins crosses the Green Fork. The game usually involves lots of hitting and arguing. The purpose of the game is to be the lord of the crossing, usually a player standing on a bridge over water.

Contents

Rules

The game must be played on some sort of bridge placed over water of some sort. One player, the "lord of the crossing," stands in the middle of the bridge with a staff. When another player approaches, the lord of the crossing must say "I am the lord of the crossing, who goes there?" The player who approaches must then present his reasons for crossing the bridge and why he should be allowed to cross. The lord asks the player questions and makes them swear oaths. The player does not have to respond truthfully to the questions but the oaths are binding unless the player says "Mayhaps" quickly enough that the lord does not notice. Then the player must attempt to knock the lord off the bridge. The lord can knock a player into the water at any time, and he is the only one armed with a staff. Only when the lord is displaced can another player become lord, but only if they said mayhaps in the game, otherwise it means immediate disqualification.

Lady Lysa Arryn, the widow of Lord Jon Arryn, Defender of the Vale, and mother of young Lord Robert Arryn, weds her childhood friend, Lord Petyr Baelish, at the Fingers.

After Lysa angrily confronts her niece, Sansa Stark, at the Eyrie, Petyr tosses his new bride to her death through the Moon Door.

A Feast for Crows

The Lords Declarant confront Petyr Baelish at the Eyrie. Art by Kim Pope

Petyr places blame on Lysa's death on her singer, Marillion, and has Sansa pretend to be his bastard daughter, "Alayne Stone".

Led by Nestor's cousin, Lord Yohn Royce, six lords of the Vale meet at Runestone and announce their intent to remove Petyr as Lord Protector of the Vale by any means necessary. Their letter is sent to the Eyrie and King's Landing.

After some time of denying access of food and other goods from the outside to the Eyrie, the Lords Declarant negotiate a meeting and arrive with Ser Lyn Corbray to confront Petyr with their objections to his rule and their insistence at taking Lord Robert Arryn away from him. However, their demands are stymied by a display of belligerence from Lyn, which shames the Lords Declarant into giving Petyr a year to show his prowess at raising Robert and ruling the Eyrie. As it turns out, Petyr has his own agent among them and believes the weaknesses of the lords will make them easy to manipulate from now on.

Lord Benedar Belmore, Ser Symond Templeton, and Lady Anya Waynwood attend the wedding of Lyn's brother, Lord Lyonel Corbray, in Gulltown, an event arranged by Petyr Baelish. The other Lords Declarant shun the wedding, however.

Quotes

The six had gathered at Runestone after Lysa Arryn's fall, and there made a pact together, vowing to defend Lord Robert, the Vale, and one another. Their declaration made no mention of the Lord Protector, but spoke of "misrule" that must be ended, and of "false friends and evil counselors" as well.

Lyn: My lady has a thirst. Whenever she comes out to dance, she likes a drop of red.

Yohn: Your lady must go thirsty.

Lordsport

The Iron Islands and the location of Lordsport

Lordsport is the seat of House Botley on Pyke.

Half the size of Lord Hewett's Town,.

Contents

History

During Greyjoy's Rebellion, Lordsport and its timber and wattle keep were the first places on Pyke to fall when King Robert I Baratheon and his forces landed on the island.

After the war, Lord Sawane Botley rebuilt his stronghold as a small square keep atop a hill; the banners of House Botley droop from the castle's squat corner towers.

Lordsport was rebuilt by its smallfolk, who used the stones from the burned remnants and cut new thatch for their roofs. Otter Gimpknee's inn at the harbor doubled in size. The sept was not rebuilt, however, as the ironmen prefer the Drowned God over the Faith of the Seven, the religion of the victorious Robert.

King Mern IX Gardener, the King of the Reach, allied with King Loren of the Rock to join forces and throw the invader back into the sea.

One day, Lorent claimed a longsword that was a gift for the castle armorer's son, Rolly, who was a member of the Bitterbridge garrison, and told Rolly he was fit to hold a hammer, not a sword.

Loso, dubbed Loso the Lame, was a Dothraki *khal* who lived during the Century of Blood. He was one of the four khals that fought in the Field of Crows.

History

Khal Loso joined forces with Khals Haro, Qano, and Zhako to fight against High King Mazor Alexi, who had united all of the Sarnori lesser kings to defend their homeland against the Dothraki hordes. The battle took place halfway between Sarnath and the ruins of Kasath. The Sarnori chariots smashed the center of the Dothraki horde. Haro was trampled and died, while his riders fled, chased by Alexi and his cavalry. However, the escape was feigned and Haro's riders turned back, raining arrows on the Sarnori, while the other khals surrounded the Tall Men on all sides, with Loso's *khalasar* attacking the rear.

Less than a fortnight later, Loso sacked Sarnath and put the city to the torch. Not even the Palace With a Thousand Rooms was spared.

A Clash of Kings

Weese sends Arya Stark to Lucan to get a new sword for Ser Lyonel, who has notched his old one in practice. When Arya hands Lucan the note Weese has given her, he grunts, although Arya does not believe he can actually read. He gives Arya a heavy longsword but tells her to deliver his message to Weese that Ser Lyonel does not deserve such a good sword, as he is an oaf. Arya assents, yet has no intention of transmitting the message, because she expects Weese would punish her. She thinks Lucan should deliver his own insults.

Arya tries to talk Gendry into running away from Harrenhal, but he is opposed to the idea, considering Harrenhal a better place than others and Lucan a fair enough master.

When the Brave Companions turn cloak and arrange for Harrenhal to fall into the hands of the northmen, Lord Roose Bolton takes his seat there. Subsequently, a couple of people who used to be in leading positions in the service of Lady Shella Whent are executed for collaborating with House Lannister. On the order of Lord Bolton, Lucan is beheaded by Steelshanks Walton for making weapons for the Lannisters. Like others, Lucan's head is tarred and put on a spike on the ramparts of the gatehouse as feast for the crows.

Lucan's death creates a rift between Arya and Gendry. Gendry liked Lucan and he blames Arya for his death, as she helped the northmen and the Brave Companions to take over Harrenhal, although she did not actually know this would be the result of her actions.

Lucas Harroway was the Lord of Harrenhal and head of House Harroway during the reigns of kings, Aenys I Targaryen and Maegor I Targaryen.

Contents

History

Lucas became the Lord of Harrenhal after the death of Lord Gargon Qoherys in 37 AC.

In 43 AC, he was named Hand of the King by Maegor, who had claimed the Iron Throne the year before. Later that year, Lucas fought on Maegor's side in the battle Beneath the Gods Eye.

In 44 AC House Harroway was wiped out by Maegor after Alys had a stillborn monstrously-deformed baby. Maegor's third wife, Queen Tyanna of the Tower, had convinced him that the boy had not been of his seed, but the result of one of Alys's many affairs, and that Lord Lucas himself had helped his daughter conceive a son for the king by sending men of proven fertility to her chambers. Tyanna provided the names of the men she had supposedly been sleeping with. This resulted in the execution of every Harroway Maegor could find, in King's Landing, Harrenhal, and Lord Harroway's Town. Lucas himself was thrown from the roof of the Tower of the Hand by knights of the Kingsguard, while he was inspecting the tower's construction.[N 1]

  1. Earlier prints of *The World of Ice & Fire* erroneously state that Lucas died in 48 AC, which has been corrected in later prints to 44 AC.

Annotation #3 for item #46268197: Wiki: (husband of Falena) Lucas Lothston

It is currently unknown whether this character and Lucas Lothston (father of Manfryd) are the same person.

Lucas Lothston was a member of House Lothston. He was master-at-arms at the Red Keep during the reign of King Aegon III Targaryen.

History

In 151 AC, after Prince Aegon was caught abed with Lady Falena Stokeworth, his father Prince Viserys married Falena to his master-at-arms Lucas Lothston and convinced King Aegon III Targaryen to name Lothston Lord of Harrenhal, to remove them from court.

In 178 AC, Falena brought her fourteen-year-old daughter Jeyne Lothston to the court of King Aegon IV Targaryen. The king took Jeyne - who may have been his own daughter - as his eighth mistress, and named Lucas Lothston Hand of the King. It was rumored but not proven that King Aegon enjoyed mother and daughter together in the same bed. However, Aegon soon gave Jeyne a pox, and Lucas was banished from court along with his wife and daughter, having served less than a year as Hand.

It is unclear whether this Lucas Lothston is the same Lucas Lothston called "the Pander", and Lucas was rewarded for letting King Aegon the Unworthy have his wife and daughter, it is very possible that they were the same man.

Annotation #1 for item #46268203: Wiki: Lucerys Velaryon

For the master of ships during the reign of King Aerys II, see Lucerys Velaryon (master of ships).

Prince Lucerys Velaryon, also known as Luke, was the secondborn son of Princess Rhaenyra Targaryen and her first husband, Ser Laenor Velaryon. He was a dragonrider whose dragon was Arrax.

Contents

Appearance and Character

Luke was a strong strapping lad, skilled in arms. Like his brothers Jacaerys and Joffrey, he had brown eyes and hair, and a pug nose. This made many at court suspect that Ser Harwin Strong was their true father.

History

Youth

King Viserys I Targaryen was delighted with Luke when he was presented at court. In 118 AC Rhaenyra Targaryen announced the betrothal of her eldest sons, Jacaerys and Lucerys, to Rhaena and Baela Targaryen, the daughters of Prince Daemon Targaryen and Laena Velaryon.

When Prince Aemond Targaryen attempted to ride Vhagar, one of House Targaryen's dragons, he was confronted by the Velaryon brothers. Aemond broke the nose of five-year-old Luke, who eventually took out Aemond's eye with his dagger.

When Lord Corlys Velaryon fell ill, Rhaenyra wanted him to name Luke as his heir to Driftmark, as his elder brother Jacaerys was in the line of succession to the Iron Throne.

Dance of the Dragons

Prince Lucerys and Arrax are killed by Prince Aemond Targaryen and Vhagar, as depicted by Chase Stone in *The World of Ice and Fire*.

Prior to the Dance of the Dragons Lucerys had long served as a squire. He was fourteen years old at the start of the civil war.

Luke was sent on a mission that was considered shorter and safer than his brother Jacaerys's, flying on Arrax as a messenger to Storm's End where it was expected that Lord Borros Baratheon would give him a warm welcome. Prior to his mission he swore on the *Seven-Pointed Star* to his mother on Dragonstone that he would take no part in fighting.

Prince Aemond Targaryen had already arrived at the castle on Vhagar, however. Upon his arrival in the Round Hall Luke ignored Aemond and delivered his letter to Borros. The Lord of Storm's End asked which of his four daughters in the Round Hall Luke would wed, but the Velaryon prince admitted he was betrothed to his cousin, Rhaena Targaryen. Borros replied that he thought as much and told him to go home. Aemond drew his sword but Lucerys told him he came as an envoy, not a knight.

Lucerys was escorted back to the castle yard where Arrax waited amidst a terrible storm. In the Round Hall, Borros granted Aemond's request to leave. Arrax was struggling to stay aloft as Aemond mounted Vhagar and went after Luke. Arrax was younger and swifter, and on a calm day might have been able to outfly his pursuer, but the weather impeded him and Vhagar was five times the size of her foe and the hardened survivor of a hundred battles.

The two dragons met above Shipbreaker Bay. According to Archmaester Gyldayn, if there was a fight it could not have lasted long. Arrax fell, broken, to be swallowed by the storm-lashed waters of the bay. His head and neck washed up beneath the cliffs below Storm's End three days later. Prince Lucerys's corpse washed up as well.

On Dragonstone, Rhaenyra collapsed when told of his death and Luke's younger brother Joffrey swore an oath of vengeance against Aemond and Borros. Prince Daemon Targaryen avenged Luke's death by sending "Blood and Cheese" to assassinate one of Aegon II's sons.

Quotes

Appearance and Character

History

When the capital was invaded during the fall of King's Landing, Luthor and his gold cloaks were loyal to Prince Daemon Targaryen, their former commander. When Daemon invaded the City Watch turned against the greens who ruled King's Landing at the time. Luthor personally killed his second-in-command, Ser Gwayne Hightower.

When Princess Helaena Targaryen committed suicide, many of the smallfolk believed (incorrectly) that Luthor killed her under the orders of his queen, Rhaenyra Targaryen.

During the riots of King's landing, Luthor led five hundred gold cloaks down Cobbler's Square. The gold cloaks, despite being well-armed and well-disciplined, were no match against ten thousand rioters. Largent was pulled down from his armored warhorse, stabbed in the stomach, and bludgeoned to death. Ser Glendon Goode of the Queensguard recovered Luthor's corpse from the riots; his body was only recognized by its size.
