| House Baratheon | |
|---|---|
 | House Baratheon: of Storm's End is one of the Great Houses of Westeros, and is the principal house in the Stormlands. Its seat, Storm's End, is an ancient castle raised by the Storm Kings. The Baratheon sigil is a crowned black stag on a field of gold. Members of the family tend to be tall and powerfully built, with black hair and blue eyes, as well as strong, square jawlines. They are known for their mercurial tempers, and their words are "Ours is the Fury". |

| Lord Borros Baratheon | |
|---|---|
 | Known as Borros 'the Younger' with a height of 6' 3", closely cut, dark black hair, and light blue eyes this man shows all the telltale qualities of a Baratheon. Dark stubble grows on his chin, roughly trimmed at all times so as to avoid a longer beard. By his broad shoulders and his mostly well-maintained physique, he obviously spends a good deal of time hard at work. That said, based on the faint roundness to his stomach, he also clearly enjoys his drink. |

| Lady Cora Baratheon | |
 | It isn't difficult to see the remnants of great beauty, yet also refined by the recent illness which has left her skin milk white and thrown her superb cheekbones into high relief. Her figure is small yet stately, gaunt yet elegant, composed almost entirely of angles and pearls and elaborately arranged bloned hair beneath a veil of delicate golden lace. Whatever shape she may have is indeterminate: her flowing blue and gold silks, stitched in her own variation upon the latest King's Landing styles, see to that nicely, though her golden girdle with the buckle in the shape of a solid gold lioness provides the occasional hint. She speaks in a pleasant, educated alto, in the accents of the court and also with her long fingered and beringed white hands, which are in the habit of emerging from her sleeves, clawlike, to underline a point. She carries the scent of orange blossom, and something else which it would be difficult and expensive to try to pin down. |
Lady of Storm's End | |
| Leonor Baratheon | |
 | Famous for her awe-inspiring voice; Leonor is known among many as the Siren of Storm's End. It is said that every time the Stormland's sailors return home from sea, she emerges high upon the keep to sing them a traditional song of hearth. While she isn't very near in bloodline to the Lord of Storm's End, she resides within the family and is regarded as a lady of the house. Leonor's earlier life was spent the same as any female of noble blood; deep within the arts and trained in the craft of wifery. |
Name & Position | |
| Sirawen Baratheon | |
 | Standing a touch more than five foot, the young woman in front of you stands with a aloof feel about her. Tresses the colour of a raven's wing at midnight, cascade down this maiden's back ending just past her little lower back. A small heart shaped face gives the illusion of youth, perhaps about twenty years of age. To the side of a perky little nose are two eyes as brilliant as polished sapphire. Her eyes are set off by thick, long eyelashes, that lay softly against her cream colored skin when her lids are closed. Her mouth is small and with pale pink lips. |
Name & Position | |
| Shayla Storm | |
 | As the bastard daughter of a Stormlands whore and Corwen Baratheon the former head of House Baratheon, Shayla Storm was never destined to amount to much. Her father did acknowlege her though which is more than many bastards can say. Of course her mother was more than happy to accept the lords help in raising her daughter and gladly let Corwen pay for a proper education, dancing, and riding lessons for the young Shayla. Shayla was a beautiful child and had exposure to both nobles and less savory types as well. She could be charming and sweet but she was not the innocent flower many noblewomen were. Her mother begin to pressure her as she grew hoping her daughter could secure a wealthy husband that would allow them both to live in comfort. Shayla though was resistant to the idea and though she got many gifts from admirers she never seemed to get attached to any of them. When her father's heir was ready to take over House Baratheon, he assigned Shayla to be his sister's handmaid. |
Handmaid to Sirawen | |
| Amadys Baratheon | |
 | A lanky youth with an instantly recognisable look, the thick black locks and dark-blue eyes that immediately announce a scion of House Baratheon's male line. Amadys is dressed in acolyte's robes of grey trimmed with pale blue only when he has to be, otherwise in general preferring a series of fine black woollen tunics, and golden cloaks lined with grey miniver. A thin length of pale-gold wire keeps three Maester's links, one of copper, one of grey iron, and one of black, dangling at his throat, but much more noticeable is the gold-and-onyx stag signet ring on his right hand. |

| Haryl Dondarrion | |
|---|---|
 | Haryl is a good warrior, a kind man, and a generous Lord. He spent most of his youth trying to be close to his own father, Lord Cariel. Cariel is a hard man, who has little time for his children, though there was much to admire in his character and his sense of duty and honour. It was this sense of duty that led Cariel to fight the Dorne. Haryl directly disobeyed his father, staying at Blackhaven with a bulk of the Dondarrion forces, during one of the last battles against Dorne and many men followed the more charismatic son over their own Lord. Haryl acted (or indeed failed to act) not for greed or personal gain, and not even because it was the course his uncle suggested, but because he believed the cause was not a just one. It pained him terribly to go against his father, even though he had much love for the man. The pain only worsened when he learned Taric his cousin had been cut down in the battle. His steadfast nature led to the men naming him "The Anvil", to match the nickname given to Ser Ackley "The Hammer". |
Lord of Blackhaven | |
| Deria of House Caron | |
 | Shoulder-length curly brown hair, light brown eyes. Deria stands at 5'2", an inch or so shorter than her siblings. She usually wears light brown gowns to match her eyes, or clothes with golden trim. Deria has been sheltered most of life. As a child, Eolande spent most of her time in her family garden between her lessons. She is a perfect case of a person experiencing cognitive dissonance, meaning her thoughts are one thing, yet her actions are another. Her thoughts have always been defiant in the sense that she wishes to rise in power, but does not wish to defy the wishes of her husband or disappoint him. |

| Raemond Dondarrion | |
 | Raemond showed both proficiency with a blade and a sharpness of mind that led many to label him as one of the most talented young nobles of the time, and his name was mentioned alongside the likes of Aemon Targaryen. He even met Aemon once, though neither spoke of the meeting afterwards. However, it seemed his potential would be wasted in the eyes of many, as at sixteen years of age he elected to join the maesters, against the wishes of his father. He excelled in the Citadel, despite joining at a reltively late age, and within only eight years he was a single link away from earning his chain. Many viewed him as a future Grand Maester, but he left the Citadel to serve his house under mysterious circumstances. He is charismatic and dangerous, there is certainly more than meets the eye to Raemond. The mysteries of his past suggest he may be a man who knows far more about the goings on in Westeros than most, and he is certainly someone to keep an eye on. |

 | Description & History |
Lady Menara Dondarrion | |
| Osgred Selmy | |
 | Osgred was in consideration to be knighted, but he declined the honor for some unknown reason. In his younth he was a angry man always living in the shadows of others. He tried often to be his own man, but once he married, such things like taking the field of battle took a back seat to the courts. He kept his wife close, using her influeance to leap himself in politics. 'Old' Cariel Dondarrion can not stomach him and insults him any chance he gets. If it wasnt for the brother and sister love of the Dondarrion family, Osgred would have had an accident that ended him a long time ago. |
Name & Position | |
| Ser Ackley Selmy | |
 | The only living child of Menara Dondarrion & Osgred Selmy, Ser Ackley spent most of his life in the shadow of his brother, Taric, despite his skill with a blade. The situation only grew worse when Taric was getting ready to inherited his lordship. He grew further and further apart from his brother, who continually gave the loyal Ackley less important roles for the House. Ackley began to become something of a father figure to the younger Haryl, and took it upon himself to train the heir to Blackhaven at arms. They grew close, and when the battles broke out with Dorne, Haryl joined his uncle, partly as a result of Ackley's counsel. Ser Ackley fought at most of the battles against Dorne, as one of the Stormlands most well known and well respected soldiers. Ackley is a good-hearted man, but his temper is fearsome when roused. His brute strength and fury have earned him the nickname "The Hammer". |
Ser Ackley Sworn to House Dondarrion | |
| Dalaris of House Mertyns | |
 | Dalaris has an upbeat, bubbly personality. She can be rather loud, and extremely talkative, not one to ever be called shy. She hardly ever gets mad, and always tries to see the good in a person, even if they had previously done wrong to her. Dalaris isn't very physically strong. She has almost no knowledge how to use anything other than lady skills, and she can be overpowered rather easily; however, she does think quick on her feet. Dalaris is also guilty of having no filter. She tends to say what she wants, when she wants. |
