The firstborn child of Steffon Baratheon and Cassan Estermont, Robert was the first-ever Baratheon king and the seventeenth ruler of the Seven Kingdoms.

In his youth, he and his brother Stannis watched as his parent’s ship crashed onto the rocks at Storms End. It was a tragedy, one that had hardened Stannis. Robert inherited the lordship and became familiar with the responsibilities of leadership (well, more so the pleasures). Robert was then guided by Jon Arryn, the head of House Arryn, who lorded over the Vale and the Erie.

Another young man was also fostered by Jon Arryn - Eddard, ‘Ned’, Stark. He and Robert became best friends and soon saw each other as brothers.

However soon a war would break out, and be forever known as ‘Robert’s Rebellion.’ After his betrothed, Lyanna Stark, was ‘abducted’ by Rhaegar Targaryen, Robert vowed to get her back. But it wasn’t until the deaths of Ned Stark’s father and brother that truly sparked the rebellion. They had protested the kidnapping of Lyanna and the Mad King had them executed.

After the Mad King and Rhaegar’s deaths, Robert claimed the Iron Throne and continued what would be known forever as, the game of thrones.

Due to the influence of Jon Arryn, Robert apprehensively married a young Cersei Lannister. Together they *had* three children; Joffrey, Myrcella and Tommen. However, outside of his marriage, Robert would go on to have many, many more children.

“Fifteen years past, when they had ridden forth to win a throne, the Lord of Storm’s End had been clean-shaven, clear-eyed, and muscled like a maiden’s fantasy…In those days, the smell of leather and blood had clung to him like perfume."

"The boy claimed to be eighteen, older than Jon, but he was green as summer grass for all that. Satin, they called him, even in the wool and mail and boiled leather of the Night’s Watch; the name he’d gotten in the brothel where he’d been born and raised. He was pretty as a girl with his dark eyes, soft skin, and raven’s ringlets."

In order:

Orlando Bloom as Young Eddard "Ned" Stark

Jamie Flatters as Young Robert Baratheon

Conan Gray as Satin Flowers

Ferdia Walsh-Peelo as Jon Snow

{Not the best fancast for Young Robert in terms of physical appearance, I KNOW! But he was like 20 and clean-shaven during his Rebellion, and Jamie is 23, soooooo 😅😅💀💀}.

Lyrics are The Death Of Peace Of Mind by Bad Omens

graphic per chapter | A Game of Thrones - 16. Eddard III

The queen regarded him coolly. "I had not thought you so niggardly. The king I'd thought to wed would have laid a wolfskin across my bed before the sun went down."

Robert's face darkened with anger. "That would be a fine trick, without a wolf."

"We have a wolf," Cersei Lannister said. Her voice was very quiet, but her green eyes shone with triumph.

ASOIAF fancasting –> The North: Bailee Madison as Jeyne Poole

“The girl was slim, and taller than he remembered, but that was only to be expected. Girls grow fast at that age. Her dress was grey wool bordered with white satin; over it she wore an ermine cloak clasped with a silver wolf’s head. Dark brown hair fell halfway down her back. And her eyes . . .

That is not Lord Eddard’s daughter.

Arya had her father’s eyes, the grey eyes of the Starks. A girl her age might let her hair grow long, add inches to her height, see her chest fill out, but she could not change the color of her eyes. That’s Sansa’s little friend, the steward’s girl. Jeyne, that was her name. Jeyne Poole.”

The most important thing about Jeyne's appearance in the books is that she's still a child, barely young enough to comprehend the horror of what is about to happen to her. She's no daughter of Lord Eddard's, yet she cuts the adults around her to the heart.

There was already a post about this, however, to reiterate:

The First Men are white. Canon Starks are white. Nowhere in the text does it imply that canon Starks are poc. The comparison between Jon and Robb - ‘dark where Robb was fair’ - is about hair color.

Ned is white. Jon and Arya are white. It is explicitly mentioned in the text for Arya.

“No." Her face was dirty, and her tears left pink tracks down her cheeks. - Eddard, AGoT

She wished she could take off her clothes and swim, gliding through the warm water like an skinny pink otter. Maybe she could swim all the way to Winterfell. - Arya, ACoK

"It takes no matter." Even if the Titan did eat juicy pink girl flesh, Arya would not fear him. She was a scrawny thing, no proper meal for a giant, and almost eleven, practically a woman grown. - Arya, AFfC

She stood on the end of the dock, pale and goose fleshed and shivering in the fog. - Arya, AFfC

Down in the vaults, she untied Cat's threadbare cloak, pulled Cat's fishy brown tunic over her head, kicked off Cat's salt-stained boots, climbed out of Cat's smallclothes, and bathed in lemonwater to wash away the very smell of Cat of the Canals. When she emerged, soaped and scrubbed pink with her brown hair plastered to her cheeks, Cat was gone. - Arya, AFfC

The Starks are considered less good looking than other families by non Northern houses in Westeros. The looks of the auburn haired, blue eyed Tullys are often favorably praised compared to the long faced, brown haired, grey eyed Starks by some of the characters in the text. One should therefore think of the implications in interpreting the Starks as darker skinned in fanon. Often times the Tully looking Starks are colored brightly while Jon, Arya and Ned are drawn in darker, duller shades.

These people are also in the North, one of the coldest places in Westeros. They are not getting a tan. Even if they were, there’s no reason for why Jon, Arya and Ned alone get a tan and not the others.

I am sure that, for the most part, artists doing this are not implying anything when Jon and Arya are drawn with darker skin compared to their siblings who are canonically praised for being more good looking.

As a poc, I would love for my favorite characters to be brown. Maybe artists think it’s canon, maybe they think it’s representation. However keep in mind the implications here considering eurocentric standards of beauty and colorism.

Just be aware and spend a few seconds thinking about why you are drawing the ‘plain looking’ Starks in darker shades, when this is not true in canon.

It’s funny that this fandom gets up in arms every time we state that Arya is pretty or all the complaints about her fancasts being too pretty. And yet, there is no discourse about how the so called ‘ugly’ Starks are a lot of the time drawn in darker shades compared to their more ‘beautiful’ Tully looking siblings and Catelyn in fanart.

ever since your james mcavoy reblog said he's your 2nd choice for live action martin i've been wondering non stop....who is your first choice?? (sorry if you've answered before) xx

It's okay! I have already said, but I don't mind answering again. It's Sean Bean, Martin's original voice actor. I like the concept of James McAvoy as Martin because he played younger Charles Xavier in the X-Men series, and we all know Professor X was also played by Patrick Stewart, aka Uriel Septim VII. But my first choice will always be Sean Bean. If Sean Bean could play Boromir and Eddard Stark, why couldn't he, theoretically, play a live action Martin? We're not likely to ever have a movie or series based on Oblivion, so I'm quite happy living with my fancast.

#no one wants to know that i picture jason isaacs as lucien #it is what it is #before anyone asks those are the only two i have i don't know many actors #azura's ask box #it's martin septim loving hours #martin septim

Tyrion Lannister Appreciation Month 2022

Day 12: Intelligence -> Bookworm &

Day 26: Favourite fancasts -> Warwick Davis & Peter Dinklage

Tyrion Lannister looked up from his books and shivered, though the library was snug and warm. Something about the howling of a wolf took a man right out of his here and now and left him in a dark forest of the mind, running naked before the pack.

When the direwolf howled again, Tyrion shut the heavy leather-bound cover on the book he was reading, a hundred-year-old discourse on the changing of the seasons by a long-dead maester. He covered a yawn with the back of his hand. His reading lamp was flickering, its oil all but gone, as dawn light leaked through the high windows. He had been at it all night, but that was nothing new. Tyrion Lannister was not much a one for sleeping.

His legs were stiff and sore as he eased down off the bench. He massaged some life back into them and limped heavily to the table where the septon was snoring softly, his head pillowed on an open book in front of him. Tyrion glanced at the title. A life of the Grand Maester Aethelmure, no wonder. "Chayle," he said softly. The young man jerked up, blinking, confused, the crystal of his order swinging wildly on its silver chain. "I'm off to break my fast. See that you return the books to the shelves. Be gentle with the Valyrian scrolls, the parchment is very dry. Ayrmidon's Engines of War is quite rare, and yours is the only complete copy I've ever seen." Chayle gaped at him, still half-asleep. Patiently, Tyrion repeated his instructions, then clapped the septon on the shoulder and left him to his tasks.

Tyrion I, AGOT

On the eighteenth night of their journey, the wine was a rare sweet amber from the Summer Isles that he had brought all the way north from Casterly Rock, and the book a rumination on the history and properties of dragons. With Lord Eddard Stark's permission, Tyrion had borrowed a few rare volumes from the Winterfell library and packed them for the ride north.

He found a comfortable spot just beyond the noise of the camp, beside a swift-running stream with waters clear and cold as ice. A grotesquely ancient oak provided shelter from the biting wind. Tyrion curled up in his fur with his back against the trunk, took a sip of the wine, and began to read about the properties of dragonbone. Dragonbone is black because of its high iron content, the book told him. It is strong as steel, yet lighter and far more flexible, and of course utterly impervious to fire. Dragonbone bows are greatly prized by the Dothraki, and small wonder. An archer so armed can outrange any wooden bow.

He had expected to find them impressive, perhaps even frightening. He had not thought to find them beautiful. Yet they were. As black as onyx, polished smooth, so the bone seemed to shimmer in the light of his torch. They liked the fire, he sensed. He'd thrust the torch into the mouth of one of the larger skulls and made the shadows leap and dance on the wall behind him. The teeth were long, curving knives of black diamond. The flame of the torch was nothing to them; they had bathed in the heat of far greater fires. When he had moved away, Tyrion could have sworn that the beast's empty eye sockets had watched him go.

There were nineteen skulls. The oldest was more than three thousand years old; the youngest a mere century and a half. The most recent were also the smallest; a matched pair no bigger than mastiff's skulls, and oddly misshapen, all that remained of the last two hatchlings born on Dragonstone. They were the last of the Targaryen dragons, perhaps the last dragons anywhere, and they had not lived very long.

From there the skulls ranged upward in size the three great monsters of song and story, the dragons that Aegon Targaryen and his sisters had unleashed on the Seven Kingdoms of old. The singers had given them the names of gods: Balerion, Meraxes, Vhaghar. Tyrion had stood between their gaping jaws, wordless and awed. You could have ridden a horse down Vhaghar's gullet, although you would not have ridden it out again. Meraxes was even bigger. And the greatest of them, Balerion, the Black Dread, could have swallowed an aurochs whole, or even one of the hairy mammoths said to roam the cold wastes beyond the Port of Ibben.

Tyrion stood in that dank cellar for a long time, staring at Balerion's huge, empty-eyed skull until his torch burned low, trying to grasp the size of the living animal, to imagine how it must have looked when it spread its great black wings and swept across the skies, breathing fire.

His own remote ancestor, King Loren of the Rock, had tried to stand against the fire when he joined with King Mern of the Reach to oppose the Targaryen conquest. That was close on three hundred years ago, when the Seven Kingdoms were kingdoms, and not mere provinces of a greater realm. Between them, the Two Kings had six hundred banners flying, five thousand mounted knights, and ten times as many freeriders and men-at-arms. Aegon Dragonlord had perhaps a fifth that number, the chroniclers said, and most of those were conscripts from the ranks of the last king he had slain, their loyalties uncertain.

The hosts met on the broad plains of the Reach, amidst golden fields of wheat ripe for harvest. When the Two Kings charged, the Targaryen army shivered and shattered and began to run. For a few moments, the chroniclers wrote, the conquest was at an end … but only for those few moments, before Aegon Targaryen and his sisters joined the battle.

It was the only time that Vhaghar, Meraxes, and Balerion were all unleashed at once. The singers called it the Field of Fire.

Near four thousand men had burned that day, among them King Mern of the Reach. King Loren had escaped, and lived long enough to surrender, pledge his fealty to the Targaryens, and beget a son, for which Tyrion was duly grateful.

"Why do you read so much?"

Tyrion looked up at the sound of the voice. Jon Snow was standing a few feet away, regarding him curiously. He closed the book on a finger and said, "Look at me and tell me what you see."

The boy absorbed that all in silence. He had the Stark face if not the name: long, solemn, guarded, a face that gave nothing away. Whoever his mother had been, she had left little of herself in her son. "What are you reading about?" he asked.

"Dragons," Tyrion told him.

"What good is that? There are no more dragons," the boy said with the easy certainty of youth.

"So they say," Tyrion replied. "Sad, isn't it? When I was your age, I used to dream of having a dragon of my own."

"You did?" the boy said suspiciously. Perhaps he thought Tyrion was making fun of him.

Oh, yes. Even a stunted, twisted, ugly little boy can look down over the world when he's seated on a dragon's back." Tyrion pushed the bearskin aside and climbed to his feet. "I used to start fires in the bowels of Casterly Rock and stare at the flames for hours, pretending they were dragonfire. Sometimes I'd imagine my father burning. At other times, my sister." Jon Snow was staring at him, a look equal parts horror and fascination. Tyrion guffawed. "Don't look at me that way, bastard. I know your secret. You've dreamt the same kind of dreams."

Tyrion II, AGOT

"I once had the great good fortune to see the Citadel's copy of Lives of Four Kings," Prince Oberyn was telling her lord husband. "The illuminations were wondrous to behold, but Kaeth was too kind by half to King Viserys."

Tyrion gave him a sharp look. "Too kind? He scants Viserys shamefully, in my view. It should have been Lives of Five Kings.""He reigned more than a year," said Tyrion.

Oberyn gave a shrug. "A year or a fortnight, what does it matter? He poisoned his own nephew to gain the throne and then did nothing once he had it."

"Baelor starved himself to death, fasting," said Tyrion. "His uncle served him loyally as Hand, as he had served the Young Dragon before him. Viserys might only have reigned a year, but he ruled for fifteen, while Daeron warred and Baelor prayed." He made a sour face. "And if he did remove his nephew, can you blame him? Someone had to save the realm from Baelor's follies."

Sansa was shocked. "But Baelor the Blessed was a great king. He walked the Boneway barefoot to make peace with Dorne, and rescued the Dragonknight from a snakepit. The vipers refused to strike him because he was so pure and holy."

Prince Oberyn smiled. "If you were a viper, my lady, would you want to bite a bloodless stick like Baelor the Blessed? I'd sooner save my fangs for someone juicier . . ."

"My prince is playing with you, Lady Sansa," said the woman Ellaria Sand. "The septons and singers like to say that the snakes did not bite Baelor, but the truth is very different. He was bitten half a hundred times, and should have died from it."

Sansa IV, ASOS

The galley was also where the ship's books were kept. Her captain being an especially bookish man, she carried three—a collection of nautical poetry that went from bad to worse, a well-thumbed tome about the erotic adventures of a young slave girl in a Lysene pillow house, and the fourth and final volume of The Life of the Triarch Belicho, a famous Volantene patriot whose unbroken succession of conquests and triumphs ended rather abruptly when he was eaten by giants. Tyrion had finished them all by their third day at sea. Then, for lack of any other books, he started reading them again. The slave girl's story was the worst written but the most engrossing, and that was the one he took down this evening to see him through a supper of buttered beets, cold fish stew, and biscuits that could have been used to drive nails.

He was reading the girl's account of the day she and her sister were taken by slavers when Penny entered the galley.

Tyrion VIII, ADWD
