Related Character Bio

Eldest Son, Second Eldest of the Five Cygnets. A quiet child oft lost in thought. Along with Odile, he strongly recalls their father and home before the Dornish laid waste to it. His father's talks of war's horrors will never be forgotten. More inclined to literary works than the martial, he sadly has little time to enjoy them. He is instructed strictly by maesters in the morning, harshly by knights in the noon, then religiously by composers and conductors before dusk. Called a prodigy by his mother, he writes many of the Five Cygnets' original pieces, supporting the act with his harp. Hates his birth name, and uses the Westeromanization of it. King Vaegon Targaryen, Uncle Jack Oakheart and Grandpop Horro Mopatis act as his primary father figures. Aegar Targaryen and Uncle Aelyx are considered elder brothers, and both whom he idolizes.
