HBO Info: Comprehensive Character Guide

[Lady S.]

This is meant as a show character guide, the aim of which is to be as comprehensive as it can be, but it is impossible to do a complete one, since not all characters are named or given enough contextualizing details to classify. Characters only mentioned in one or two episodes have those episodes cited in brackets. Any other background information is taken only from HBO.com and the HBO viewers' guide, with the maps there zoomed in for as much bannermen info as possible. Characters listed in italics are deceased, with circumstances of death listed if known. Characters without children, or whose children are listed with their sibling, may have close associates listed below them in the House family tree, with such associations explained. Characters listed in family trees with an * after their name were mentioned on the show (but without enough details to pinpoint their birth) but not included in the viewer's guide, or in the case of Rhaella Targaryen listed next to her brother-husband with no way to tell who was the elder, and in the case of Walder Frey's brood listed without any clear family tree, all others listed with siblings can be assumed to be listed in birth order.
 
House Targaryen
The Targaryens came from the ancient civilization of Valyria, bringing dragons from the eastern continent and settling on an island they called Dragonstone. After a mysterious disaster known as the Doom of Valyria wiped out their homeland and killed most of the world's dragons, the Targaryens invaded Westeros, successfully conquering six of the seven kingdoms. Centuries later, a rebellion led by a relative named Robert Baratheon overthrew the Targaryen dynasty and eliminated most of the royal family, except for Viserys and Daenerys Targaryen, who fled across the Narrow Sea. But after turning Slaver's Bay into the Bay of Dragons, Queen Daenerys I set sail for Westeros and reclaimed Dragonstone. After helping her newfound nephew Jon defeat the Night King's forces, Daenerys returned her sights to the Iron Throne and destroyed the Lannister regime for good.

House Baratheon
House Baratheon, founded during Aegon's Conquest by a general rumored to be a Targaryen bastard, has been the ruling dynasty in recent years, since Robert Baratheon overthrew House Targaryen with the help of his future in-laws, the Lannisters. After King Robert I's untimely death, his son Joffrey ascended to the throne, amid rebellion and rumors of illegitimacy. There followed a succession conflict between the children of King Robert I and his brother(s), which only ended after the mysterious assassination of Renly Baratheon, the victory of Joffrey Baratheon against his uncle Stannis in the Battle of the Blackwater, and the slaying of Stannis after his defeat by the Boltons during the reign of Tommen Baratheon. House Baratheon's time on the Iron Throne ended when King Tommen I committed suicide after his mother destroyed the Great Sept of Baelor with the Queen consort, the Queen's family, the Hand of the King and the High Septon inside.

House Stark
The leading House of the North, the Starks reigned as Kings in the North until the Targaryen conquest, after which they served as Wardens of the North for nearly 300 years. Following the execution of his father, Robb Stark severed ties with the Iron Throne, becoming the first King in the North since the Conquest. This bid for independence came to a violent halt when Walder Frey and Roose Bolton, under the authority of Tywin Lannister, worked together to slay King Robb, along with his mother and his wife, in an event that came to be known as the Red Wedding. King Robb's sister Sansa was the first Stark to return home to Winterfell, only to flee from the Boltons with her family's former ward, Theon Greyjoy. After reuniting with "the Bastard of Winterfell", Jon Snow, they defeated House Bolton together and took back Winterfell, where Jon was acclaimed as King in the North.

House Lannister
Known as the wealthiest family in Westeros, the Lannisters of Casterly Rock ruled as kings before the Targaryen dragons conquered Westeros, and ruled as Wardens of the West afterwards. Lord Tywin Lannister served as Hand of the King to King Aerys II Targaryen, and was said to be the true ruler of the realm. After resigning this post he worked to help end Robert's Rebellion by eliminating most of the Targaryen royal family. The marriage of his daughter, Cersei Lannister, to King Robert I Baratheon brought the Lannisters together with the new ruling family; her son Joffrey's ascendance to the Iron Throne solidified their power. When Cersei's last surviving child killed himself after she destroyed the Great Sept of Baelor, the Dowager Queen seized the Iron Throne by force as Queen Cersei I. After a few great victories against the forces of the Mad King's daughter, the too brief reign of Queen Cersei I ended when Daenerys Targaryen proved mad herself and destroyed King's Landing.

House Arryn
Located in the Vale, the Arryns once ruled as kings and now serve as Wardens of the East, from their mountain stronghold, the Eyrie--a keen defense against the violent clans that surround their home. The future king Robert Baratheon, and Jon Arryn's future brother-in-law Ned Stark, were fostered at the Eyrie in the years before they joined forces with House Tully to win the Iron Throne in Robert's Rebellion. Lord Jon's widow, Lysa, retired to her husband's seat soon after his sudden death, keeping herself out of the fray below in the War of Five Kings. She then suffered a sudden death herself shortly after entering her second marriage. Lord Jon's heir, Lord Robin Arryn ordered the knights of the Vale to war for the first time in years to aid his cousin Sansa Stark in the Battle of the Bastards, and after their victory the Vale lords and knights swore their swords to Sansa Stark's half-brother, King Jon Snow., eventually following him into battle in the Battle of the Long Night and the Second Sack of King's Landing.

House Tully
The principal house of the Riverlands, the Tullys rose to power during Aegon's Conquest, when Edmyn Tully chose to join with the Targaryen invaders, leading the riverlanders in rebellion against Harren the Black. During the War of Five Kings, House Tully came under attack by House Lannister, and the Tullys chose their kinsman King Robb Stark as their overlord rather than swear fealty to King Joffrey I. The riverlords fought for Edmure Tully in the name of King Robb. All except for House Frey. When Lord Edmure entered a marriage alliance with House Frey to replace King Robb's broken betrothal, the Freys betrayed Houses Tully and Stark in a massacre known as the Red Wedding.

House Greyjoy
House Greyjoy's power dates back to the Grey King who ruled in the Age of Heroes. After the Targaryen Conquest, when the last ironborn king, Harren the Black, was killed, House Greyjoy was chosen by their people as the new rulers. Although only lords since then, the Greyjoys have always had larger designs. King Balon Greyjoy worked for years to bring back the Old Way. His first rebellion was ended by the combined forces of Robert Baratheon and Eddard Stark, and Balon later met his end at the hands of his own brother as his second rebellion faltered. Euron Greyjoy was then proclaimed king at the kingsmoot after his murder of Balon. But what is dead may never die. King Balon's surviving children stole the best of the Iron Fleet and brokered an alliance with Queen Daenerys I Targaryen before Euron could do so, causing King Euron to seek the hand of Queen Cersei I Lannister instead.

House Tyrell
For centuries, the Tyrells served and occasionally intermarried with House Gardener, the ancient Kings of the Reach. But after the Targaryen conquest eliminated House Gardener, the Tyrells bent the knee to the Iron Throne--and then rose to power as Wardens of the South. Lord Mace Tyrell was a staunch Targaryen loyalist in Robert's Rebellion, besieging Storm's End until the Targaryen dynasty was fully overthrown. Afterwards he became a loyal friend to House Baratheon. During the War of Five Kings, House Tyrell first supported the claim of King Renly I Baratheon, but after his death they became the principal support of his nephew(s) on the Iron Throne. This alliance came to an explosive end when the Dowager Queen, Cersei Lannister, destroyed the Great Sept of Baelor while Lord Mace Tyrell and both of his children were inside. After a brief attempt by Lord Mace's mother to get revenge by supporting Daenerys Targaryen, the Lannisters suborned the Reach's best general and ended the golden strength of Highgarden, with Lady Olenna dying as well.

House Martell
Led by House Martell, Dorne was the only region in Westeros to successfully resist all efforts of Targaryen conquest. A marriage alliance between a Targaryen king and a Martell princess led to Dorne entering the realm of the Iron Throne, and as the only royal house never to be subdued by the Targaryens, the Martell ruling family retained the titles of Prince and Princess. Princess Elia Martell was consort to Prince Rhaegar Targaryen, but she and her children were tragically murdered on the orders of Tywin Lannister. Prince Oberyn Martell's death in a failed attempt to avenge his sister led to intra-family conflict ending in the deaths of Tywin Lannister's granddaughter, and the remaining legitimate members of House Martell. Prince Oberyn's paramour, Ellaria Sand, then renewed the Dornish alliance with House Targaryen to continue their quest for revenge, only to have her efforts brutally ended by Euron Greyjoy and Cersei Lannister.

The Freys were sworn to House Tully for generations, shoring up their wealth by charging travelers a fee to cross the Trident River via their castle, the Twins. Ever ambitious, the family tends to marry up, a practice encouraged by the current Lord of the Crossing, Walder Frey, a man married 8 times, with a vast brood of descendants. After organizing the slaying of his king, Robb Stark, and capturing his liege lord and son-in-law, Edmure Tully, Lord Walder also assumed the title of Lord Paramount of the Riverlands. However, after Ser Brynden Tully reclaimed Riverrun and was defeated by the Freys, with the aid of Jaime Lannister, their new victory was short-lived, and their dominion over the Riverlands ended when Lord Walder was murdered by Arya Stark, who then poisoned the other Frey men who participated in the Red Wedding.

House Bolton
The Boltons were a family who believed in the effectiveness of flaying enemies, though the practice is now outlawed in the North. For centuries, the Boltons served as vassals of House Stark, their ancient rivals. This relationship ended at the Red Wedding, where Roose Bolton slew King Robb Stark, an act of treachery which earned him Winterfell and the title of Warden of the North. Lord Roose was himself killed and supplanted by his firstborn son, Ramsay, following the birth of a second son by his new Frey wife. After being betrayed by his wife, Lord Ramsay was then defeated by his brother-in-law Jon Snow in the Battle of the Bastards, and murdered at the behest of the runaway Lady Bolton.
