[hider=Recent History] Following Jaime Lannister's banishment from the Kingsguard and the subsequent death of Cersei Lannister at her brothers hands in the following months the Lannister dynasty was removed from the Iron Throne and stripped of their influence over the Seven Kingdoms. Jaime went on to further abdicate his title of Lord of the Rock to his brother Tyrion Lannister in the wake of the Long Night and, While still regarded as one of the most infamous men in Westeros, Tyrion had become a close adviser to Queen Danaerys before her return to the country. It was because of this close tie to the queen that he was made Hand of the King following the realm's victory against The Others. With Tyrion on the seat of Casterly Rock as well as guiding King Jon and Queen Danaerys in most matters of state his clever stewardship was one of the footholds the realm used to heal itself from the long periods of fighting in the years prior. Though Tyrion has gained a reputation for being quick, helpful, and fair much of the realm still views him for what he is: A Lannister and a Dwarf, and Tyrion often wonders which of those titles is more damning. Despite Tyrion's rise to power, however, the Lannister family saw its share of hardships in the years following the War of the Five Kings. The family's experienced leadership died with the brothers Tywin and Kevan Lannister and so the family had to work hard for years to regain their fortitude and re-strengthen the Rock. This was partially accomplished through the still valid marriage of Tyrion Lannister and Sansa Stark. By Tyrion's own reluctant suggestion and Danaerys favoritism toward the dwarf, King Jon and Lady Sansa agreed to keep the marriage intact and forge a lasting bond between the North and the Westerlands. This allowed both realms to profit off of the others knowledge and resources and help aid the rebuilding of both houses after their hard times in the previous years. Now the Westerlands are nearly out of the woods with their war debt and damage and things are starting to look up for House Lannister, despite some of their numerous enemies plotting against them and indeed even some of their own turning cloak. [/hider] Family Members: [hider=Tyrion Lannister] Name: Tyrion Lannister Age: 50 Appearance: Tyrion is a Dwarf standing just over three feet tall with stubby legs and a slightly bulbous head. He possesses a unique stare with one vibrant green eye and one dark purple along with a sickening scar that travels diagonally across what remains of his nose from his forehead to his jaw. His bleach blonde hair has turned mostly white, however it would be difficult for one to tell much of a difference, and his beard is now kempt in a tidy goatee. Along with Tyrion's previous scarring at the battle of the black water, he has gained several more from the three battles he fought after returning to westeros, and he walks with a limp now, due to having had one of his hips broken during the long night. Role: Tyrion is the Lord of House Lannister, Warden of the West, and Hand of the King. He leads the small Council and sits the Iron throne when King Jon and Queen Danaerys are not present, and his word is considered to be the word of the King himself. Equipment: Tyrion has hung up his Ax and shield and adopted a smooth wooden cane with a fine golden Lions head for a hand grip and a clubbed foot. Skills: Tyrion is a master manipulator and is considered one of the most intelligent men in Westeros by those who can look past his disabilities. He is Also a big fan and avid player of Cyvasse, having won and lost against many of the great masters of the game. Biography: Tyrion was born to Tywin and Joanna Lannister in 273AC, his mother died giving birth to him and this, along with his dwarfism, leading to long term animosity between Tyrion, his father, and his sister although his Brother Jaime became his closest friend. Tyrion has been all over Westeros from the Wall to Dorne and was always known throughout the country as a scholar as well as a whoremonger. During the early days of the War of the Five Kings Tyrion was falsely accused of attempting to murder Brandon Stark and was thus taken prisoner by Lysa Arryn in the Vale. Tyrion won his freedom through Bronn, a mercenary and close friend of Tyrion's for years to come. Tyrion went on to become essential in the defense of King's Landing from Stannis Baratheon in the midst of the War and served temporarily as Hand of the King. He was later accused of murdering King Joffrey Baratheon at his wedding ceremony to Lady Margaery Tyrell. Because of this he fled the country to Essos where he encountered Aegon Targaryen and his allies and learned that they intended to put him on the Iron Throne. It was after Tyrion wandered off to a brothel that he was taken captive by Ser Jorah Mormont of Bear Island and the two set off to find Danaerys Targaryen in Mereen. Jorah and Tyrion were captured however and sold into slavery and told they would have to invade Mereen and help kill the very person they set out to find. Thanks to Tyrion's quick wit and cunning charm he gained his freedom in the battle with the help of one of the Mercenary captains in the Slave camps. Tyrion went on to find Queen Danaerys and become a close, loyal advisor to her throughout her rule. He remained by her side during her return to Westeros as well. Having helped her and Jon Stark defeat the long night as well as inheriting the title of Lord of the Rock from his brother, Tyrion was made hand of the king at Danaerys' request. Since then Tyrion has faithfully served the realm and offered as much helpful advice to the King as he could. King Jon, having remembered meeting Tyrion and the sage advice he had once offered him, accepting Tyrion and even went as far as to tell the dwarf that he respected and admired him. Tyrion was humbled by this and has sworn undying allegiance to King Jon even if it means the destruction of House Lannister. Notes: Tyrion is hated by many, but also has many loyal friends across Westeros and Essos. Regardless of what their opinion of the man might be, everybody knows his name.
