As a child she grew up at Old Oak in The Reach. Arwyn was very close to her brother Jack as they were similar in age and she loved hearing him sing and hearing his stories. Arwyn and Jack often visited Summerhall where Jack performed for his friend Vaegon together with Siegfried Swann. They would hunt and chat together but whenever “Oak & Swann” were on tour, Arwyn liked to stay at Summerhall a while longer to spend time with Prince Vaegon who was the cousin of Queen Visenya. Arwyn enjoys to be in the company of others, rarely spending time alone. Nowadays she likes to spend time with her children. Especially her daughter Maegan who is very dear to her. She does not shy away from hunting and horse riding in her spare time. In 404 AC Arwyn and Vaegon got married in the Great Sept of Baelor in King's Landing, in a great royal ceremony hosted by the old King Aegor. Later that same year their first son Aegar was born, named after his grandfather who was the half-brother of King Aegor. In the year 418 AC Vaegon would proclaim himself King of Summerhall after the death of his cousin Visenya in Otho’s Rebellion. Arwyn became his queen and served as his most trusted advisor, outruling his small council in all decisions if she disagreed with them. Arwyn has two more children. Daughters named Maegan and Vaella. Maegan being born in 407 AC, and Vaella in 420 AC in the year of The War of Summer’s End while Vaegon was waging his war against Otho Bracken to avenge Jack’s death at the hand of King Otho, and to reclaim The Iron Throne for House Targaryen. During this time Arwyn ruled Summerhall in Vaegon’s absence, fearing he might never return. Vaegon did not survive the war of Summer's End. Leaving Arwyn widowed and alone. After the war She involuntarily returned to Old Oak with her children and household. She is now the Lady of Old Oak, a vassal of Lord Thomas Costayne of The Reach.
