[[folder: Ser Robert Beesbury]]
!!Ser Robert Beesbury
Eldest child, although not heir, of Lord Qyllon Beesbury, sent by Lord Devrin Oakheart to liberate Southshield from Ironborn occupation and liberate lady Heleri Hewett.

* GoodIsNotSoft: He may want to free lady Heleri, but that doesn't mean he won't remorselessly kill Ironborn for invading and partaking in the raiding of Southshield.
* HeroicBastard: He may no longer be considered a true Beesbury by his father, but he at least tries to save a DamselInDistress.

[[folder: Dimitri the Wise]]
!!Dimitri the Wise
A... strange man who lives alone in the forests around Raylansfair. He claims to be a philosopher and his only companion is his dove, Hildemara.

* CloudCuckoolander: Dimitri is the stories prime example.
* TheHermit: He has become one by choice, never seeking out others, though he offers advice to anyone who manages to find him.
* IceCreamKoan: Unfortunately, his advice is almost exclusively some sort of this trope.
* UnusualPetsForUnusualPeople: His loyal pet companion is a dove whom he has named Hildemara.
* WhatHappenedToTheMouse: He is left in the forest after Maya flees from the Band of Claws. It is unknown if they found him or what they did to him, though the character list in the main post of the story keeps him under the "Deceased or Unknown" category.

!!!The Hammered Harp Inn
[[folder: Aylard Kawl]]
!!Aylard Kawl
The founder and owner of the Hammered Harp Inn. Formerly a soldier, he settled down with his wife and their numerous children to fully dedicate himself to managing the tavern on the busy road between Raylansfair and Highgarden

[[/folder]]

* CloudCuckoolander: Dimitri is the stories prime example and he is this UpToEleven.

* PetTheDog: An unexpected contrast to his past as a rapist, he seems to be utterly unwilling to tolerate the same behaviour in his soldiers. He even goes as far as to inform the leaders of the Stormlander forces in the dornish marches of the punishments he has decided upon in case any of his men dares to rape a dornish woman, which results in Argilac and his men in the marches following his example. It does make him a massive hypocrite, given his past, but it likely genuinely benefits any dornish woman who happens to be captured by the Gardener forces.

* YourCheatingHeart: Despite being married and already having several children, he nonetheless fathered a bastard with one of his courtiers.

* BadassGrandpa: He has sons and grandsons of his own and leads his men personally.

Sworn to House Hightower of Hightower, House Beesbury can trace its lineage all the way to Ellyn Ever Sweet, one of the many children of Garth Greenhand. House Beesbury suffered a great loss in the war with the Stormlands, which took the life of its lord and his three eldest sons, leaving his fourth and only surviving son as heir. Its current head is Qyllon Beesbury.

* [[spoiler: KillTheCutie: She is killed at the end of Chapter 3, when Bear takes her hostage.]]

* OutOfFocus: Compared to the rest of the Hammered Harp crew, she receives far less screentime

[[folder: Aylard Kawl]]
!!Aylard Kawl
The founder and owner of the Hammered Harp Inn. Formerly a soldier, he settled down with his wife and their numerous children to fully dedicate himself to managing the tavern on the busy road between Raylansfair and Highgarden

* DropTheHammer: His weapon of choice in the army of the Reach has been a warhammer, which he took with him when he was honourably discharged.
* DullEyesOfUnhappiness: [[spoiler: After Lunett's death, his stare becomes as dull and sorrowful as his entire existence.]]
* HeartbrokenBadass: He gets badass points for being an old, experienced soldier. The heartbroken part comes into action when one considers that his wife and six children have died before the story started. [[spoiler: Later on, he becomes even more heartbroken when his daughter Lunett dies.]]
* {{Jerkass}}: It's not hard to admit, Aylard is kind of a jerk. He is rude, with a bit of a temper and prone to act irrational. In fact, these traits make it hard to like him even after all he has lost. However, it has been implied that exactly these losses have triggered his jerkish qualities, making it more of a case of TookALevelInJerkass.
* OldSoldier: Aylard used to be a soldier in his youth, who retired after he got honourably discharged.
* OutlivingOnesOffspring: He had eight children together with his wife. At the beginning of the story, only Lunett and Sawyer are still alive. [[spoiler: It comes up again when Lunett dies, meaning that he outlived seven of his children.]]
* PapaWolf: One of Aylard's few positive traits is his absolute love and care for his children. He occasionally crossed into OverprotectiveDad territory, but most of the time, his worry for them is justified.
* RoaringRampageOfRevenge: [[spoiler: After Lunett's death, he goes on one, fully intending to kill Lucas and being completely unable to be reasoned with, until he finally gets taken down, nonlethaly.]]
* TraumaCongaLine: His recent life after retiring can be summed up as this in general. First, a terrible sickness hits his inn, claiming the life of his wife and six of their children. Then, a bandit clan hits his inn, claiming the life of one of his barmaids and forcing him to leave his home behind. [[spoiler: Then, his eldest daughter runs away and is promptly murdered, leaving him with only one living child.]]

[[folder: Lunett Kawl]]
!!Lunett Kawl
Aylard's eldest child and only living daughter. Lunett is a dreamer, sick of her life at the inn and wishing for adventure to happen and take her away, to faraway lands.

* [[spoiler: AnArmAndALeg: Before murdering her, Mullendore severs both of her feet. He notably does it only ForTheEvulz, since Lucas isn't even there to answer any questions.]]
* BeCarefulWhatYouWishFor: Lunett yearns to go on an adventure and even manipulates Lucas and Leonard to take her with them to the city of [[ViceCity Oldtown]]. Unfortunately for her, she lives in a CrapsackWorld and slowly has to realize the harsh reality of all this.
* [[spoiler: CruelAndUnusualDeath: Maron Mullendore takes her hostage, mutilates, rapes and blind her before killing her, all just to prove a point to her lover.]]
* [[spoiler: EyeScream: Her CruelAndUnusualDeath prominently involves her getting brutally blinded by Mullendore.]]
* {{Hallucinations}}: While he is Maron Mullendore's prisoner, Lucas sees her, among others, as a hallucination, brought up by his subconsciousness due to the intense pain he suffered. [[spoiler: She is far more mean-spirited than she used to be in life and bitterly blames Lucas for her death, which shows just how much Lucas is blaming himself.]]
* [[spoiler: HeroicSacrifice: Admittely, she had no idea that it would end as one of these, but she knew that staying behind to block the door would be dangerous. She did it regardless, to prevent the Solvers from catching Dairon.]]
* TheIngenue: Sweet, but highly naive and with a behaviour so overly trusting that it easily causes problems for her and others.
* InterclassRomance: Even though he is a bastard, she is far below Lucas' social standing. They both plan to make it work regardless.
* [[spoiler: KillTheCutie: One of the most innocent characters in the story, as well as one of the first to die.]]
* [[spoiler: TheLostLenore: Her death has an incredible impact on Lucas, with whom she had a RelationshipUpgrade not long before her death.]]
* MassivelyNumberedSiblings: Lunett is the oldest of eight siblings.
* NiceGirl: Lunett is among the nicest characters in the story, with genuine innocence and more optimism than most other characters combined.
* PluckyGirl: Despite everything around her, Lunett remains brave and optimistic.
* [[spoiler: SacrificialLion: Lunett is the first big character to die in the story, after being a major part of Lucas' storyline and his love interest, to cement Maron Mullendore's status as the BigBad.]]
* SingleWomanSeeksGoodMan: This is the reason she is so attracted to Lucas. Since he seeks for a kind-hearted NiceGirl, they make a good match as well and receive plenty of ShipTease, as well as a quick RelationshipUpgrade.
* WideEyedIdealist: Lunett always tries to see the best in others, even if they are likely bad guys. She is overly trusting and naive, which proves to be a fatal flaw in [[CrapsackWorld Westeros]].
* WrongGenreSavvy: She thinks the world of Westeros is a standard HighFantasy world, with noble [[KnightInShiningArmour Knights In Shining Armour]] that always defeat the ObviouslyEvil villains, a world in which she is the heroes good-hearted love interest that will get to live with him happily ever after. Naturally, she couldn't be more wrong.

[[folder: Sawyer Kawl]]
!!Sawyer Kawl
The youngest and only living son of Aylard Kawl, as well as the younger brother of Lunett. Sawyer is a young child, living at the inn with the rest of the Hammered Harp cast.

* ChildrenAreInnocent: One of his most visible traits is his wide-eyed innocence. He is also only seven years old, so this is to be expected.
* MassivelyNumberedSiblings: Sawyer is the youngest of eight siblings.
* MoralityPet: He serves as this for Aylard, who keeps his temper in check when around his son. In a certain way, he is one for the entire Hammered Harp group, as they show their best behaviour when they are around him.
* [[spoiler: SoleSurvivor: He is the only one of eight Kawl children who is still alive in the story.]]

[[folder: Cass]]

* MayDecemberRomance: She is roughly twenty years younger than her lover, John.
* [[spoiler: SacrificialLion: As John Gutten's love interest, she has a profound impact on his life and is built up to be a major character. Only two chapters later, she dies a truly horrible death.]]
* [[spoiler: SlashedThroat: How Bear kills her.]]
* SmallRoleBigImpact: She only appears in two chapters, yet she leaves a great impact on John for a long time.
* TakingTheVeil: This was supposed to be her fate, though she realized quickly enough what a mistake this would have been. Because of this, she ran away from the sept she trained in and ended up as a barmaid.
* TokenReligiousTeammate: She is the only truly religious character out of the Hammered Harp group.

[[folder: Kyette]]
!!Kyette
Once a thief from the city of Oldtown, Kyette had to leave when a heist went bad. During her escape, she stumbled upon the Hammered Harp Inn. The wife of the innkeeper, Barbeth, took her in and allowed her to stay despite her past.

* CoolBigSis: This is her role in the odd family that lives at the Hammered Harp Inn. She is a sort-of sister for Lunett, Cass and Sawyer and they definitely regard her as cool.
* DamselInDistress: In Chapter 3, she is temporarily held hostage by the [[BanditClan Band of Claws]]. Fortunately for her, John Gutten comes to the rescue.
* KleptomaniacHero: She once was a thief and old habits tend to die hard.
* OutOfFocus: Compared to the rest of the Hammered Harp crew, she receives far less screentime

[[folder: Gunel]]
!!Gunel
A former whore, who left her home in Oldtown when her looks faded. She found a new home at the Hammered Harp Inn, where she worked as the head barmaid.

* SmallRoleBigImpact: He initially only appears in Lucas' backstory and for a cameo role in Chapter 6, where it is established that his father passed away, but he is undoubtedly the most important person in Lucas' life, having sent him down the path that led to his current position. Therefore, Petyr has influenced the entire story with his actions, via DisasterDominoes. [[spoiler: This is later subverted when he becomes the main villain of the Raylansfair arc alongside Maron Mullendore.]]

* Manipulative Bastard: He is well aware of his unassuming and trustworthy appearance and uses it in his favour. Being a master manipulator, his true villainy is suspected by absolutely no one and he always styles himself as a friendly supporter of those he talks to. This is best shown in the way he manipulates Willfred.

* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: Devrin might be of less than stellar morality, but he has a wife and two children whom he seems to care for quite a lot.
* FalseFriend: [[spoiler: Devrin poses to be a friend to Mern Gardener and has his full trust. However, he lies to his king that he can trust Vyrwel and Mullendore, when he's really conspiring with them to betray him to Harren Hoare.]]

* SelfMadeOrphan: It is heavily implied that he managed to kill his father after all. [[spoiler:Chapter 9 reveals he did.]]

* SmallRoleBigImpact: He initially only appears in Lucas' backstory and for a cameo role in Chapter 6, where it is established that his father passed away, but he is undoubtedly the most important person in Lucas' life, having sent him down the path that led to his current position. Therefore, Petyr has influenced the entire story with his actions, via DisasterDominoes.

* TooDumbToLive: Surely, insulting [[BadassPrincess Argella Durrandon]] to her face is a good idea, right? Luckily for him, it didn't cost him anything, but considering what her father recently [[AnArmAndALeg did]] to someone who accidentally insulted his daughter, it was an incredibly stupid and reckless thing to do.

The royal house of the Reach and one of the oldest houses in Westeros. From their seat at Highgarden, they rule over a mostly peaceful and prosperous land, though threats from the south and an unstable peace with the Stormlands still are a cause of great worry for them. The Gardener kings are known to be cunning and scheming, yet polite and chivalrous at the same time, holding their kingdom together through diplomacy instead of brute force.

* BrokenPedestal: Mern quickly saw that he has no choice but to kneel to the Storm King to end a war that would have destoryed his kingdom. Unfortunately, this makes him seen as weak and a disappointment by his followers, who start to become disillusioned by him.

* FrontlineGeneral: While old now, he continues to lead his men personally.

The eldest son of King Mern and heir of Highgarden.

* ActionDad: Has sons of his own and is a warrior like his father.
* WarriorPrince: Like his father he leads his men personally.

* BigFun: Whenever h is in a good mood, he embodies this trope, being a heavy-weight, likable man who is fun to be around.

* ExtremeDoormat: Some of his actions give off such a vibe, until he reveals that he has a spine after all.

* ItsAllAboutMe: Harlen is a selfish man, who cares only about his own safety in times of danger.
* NonActionGuy: And he admits to it. He is a talker, not a warrior and he sees no problem with it.

* BigBadDuumvirate: [[spoiler: As it turns out, he is in league with Maron Mullendore, previously thought to be the sole BigBad of the Reach arc, with whom he conspires to take over the city of Raylansfair.]]

* FalseFriend: [[spoiler:Lies to his king that he can trust Vyrwel and Mullendore, when he's really conspiring with them to betray him to Harren Hoare.]]
* ChekhovsGunman: First mentioned by Petyr during Lucas imprisonment, and debuts in Mern's interlude.

* TheGhost: So far only mentioned in Mern's interlude.

* KnowWhenToFoldEm: After his father was slain by the Storm King, Mern successfully negotiated for peace.

Lord of Old Oak and head of House Oakheart. He has recently betrothed his son Edwin to Petyr Vyrwel's younger sister. [[spoiler:He also happens to be allied with Petyr Vyrwel and Maron Mullendore in conspiring with betraying the Reach to Harren Hoare.]]

* FalseFriend: [[spoiler:Lies to his king that he can trust Vyrwel and Mullendore, when he's conspiring with them to betray him to Harren Hoare.]]

* BodyMotifs: Their sigil depicts a green hand on a field of yellow.

The Lord of Uplands and cousin of Maron Mullendore.

* CainAndAbel: The Abel of Maron's Cain.

!Gardener Bannermen and Retainers
!!!House Tyrell
-> ''"Growing Strong"''
-->-- '''Words of House Tyrell'''

[[folder: Lord Harlen Tyrell]]
!!Lord Harlen Tyrell
!!!The Castellan of Highgarden
The head of House Tyrell and castellan of Highgarden, Harlen comes from an influential family with strong ties to House Gardener. He is a diplomat, skilled with words, but a stranger to any kind of combat.

* {{Ambadassador}}: Completely subverted. Harlen knows nothing about combat, something he completely admits to.
* BewareTheNiceOnes: A nice, calm and affable man, but nonetheless an effective diplomat if he wants to. Harlen is also ambitious and knows his way around on the political stage of Westeros.
* BigFun: Whenever h is in a good mood, he embodies this trope, being a heavy-weight, likable man who is fun to be around.
* DirtyCoward: Not only does he allow Argella to boss him around, he also hides the moment he has to face any sort of danger. What puts him into the dirty part of this trope is his refusal to allow his knights to fight, instead forcing them to protect him alone.
* ExtremeDoormat: Some of his actions give off such a vibe, until he reveals that he has a spine after all.
* GuileHero: As the chief diplomat of House Gardener and a NonActionGuy, he is more or less guaranteed to be this.
* ItsAllAboutMe: Harlen is a selfish man, who cares only about his own safety in times of danger.
* NonActionGuy: And he admits to it. He is a talker, not a warrior and he sees no problem with it.

[[folder: Ser Elias Tyrell]]
!!Ser Elias Tyrell
Harlen's nephew and one of the best knights in the Reach.

* TheAce: One of the finest knights in all of the kingdom, Elias is a force to be reckoned with. Having won many tourneys, Elias is considered a prodigy with a bright future
* AmbiguouslyGay: At the very least Argella interprets his refusal of her advances as this. In her opinion, no man would refuse to dance with her if he is interested in women. The lack of any lover in Elias' life, despite his handsome appearance and skill, does give her some reason for sure.
* ArrogantKungFuGuy: Elias certainly takes a little bit too much pride in his skills as a fighter. It is the main argument that tarnishes his image as a perfect true knight, since this arrogance often makes him look like a jerk.
* BeleagueredAssistant: To his uncle, Harlen, whom he dislikes having to work for. In fact, he even expresses outright frustration at his uncle's cowardice during the Raid on Raylansfair, as it prevents him from fighting as well.
* {{Expy}}: Elias shows more than just a few similarities to Loras Tyrell, the Knight of Flowers and distant relative of his during the time of the War of the Five Kings. Like Loras, Elias is a prodigy as a knight, though his temper and arrogance tarnish this somewhat, even if the public is willing to look past it. Whereas Loras is confirmed to be gay and in a relationship with Renly Baratheon, Elias is at the least AmbiguouslyGay.
* HotBlooded: He has a severe temper, which shines through whenever he is provoked.
* HypercompetentSidekick: Compared to his uncle, Elias might be the less capable administrator, but he has instincts that go far beyond what the often clueless Harlen shows, which ultimately makes him even more suited to lead such negotiations. He is, for example, instantly wary of Sherryl, whom Harlen grows to trust.
* {{Jerkass}}: As a mixture of beign HotBlooded and an ArrogantKungFuGuy, he becomes a bona fide jerk.
* JumpedAtTheCall: For all his arrogance and jerkish traits, Elias still is a knight and therefore very eager to prove himself in battle against the Ironborn during the Raid on Raylansfair. Unfortunately, his uncle thwarts these ambitions through his RefusalOfTheCall.
* KnightInShiningArmor: He likes to maintain such an image, though his temper and jerkish qualities often prevent anyone from truly buying it. Still, he acts like a true knight, if only to maintain his image as one.
* LongHairedPrettyBoy: He has long, curly hair and is noted to be boyishly handsome.

!!!House Vyrwel
-> ''"No Ties May Bind"''
-->-- '''Words of House Vyrwel'''

[[folder:Lord Leo Vyrwel]]
!!Lord Leo Vyrwel
The Lord of Darkdell at the beginning of the story. Leo is an older man with several children, among them Lucas Flowers, whom he banished after a seeming attempt on his life years ago.

* TheGhost: Mentioned at several points of Book 1, he is also an important background character for Lucas' backstory, but he hasn't received an appearance.
* PosthumousCharacter: He is killed (probably by his own son) before we ever get to see him in the story proper.
* UnwittingPawn: He completely fell for Petyr's act and believed him over his bastard son, which resulted in Lucas getting banished from Darkdell and Petyr being in a better position than ever before to further his goals.
* YourCheatingHeart: Despite being married and already having several children, he nonetheless fathered a bastard with one of his courtiers.

[[folder:Lord Petyr Vyrwel]]
!!Lord Petyr Vyrwel
Leo's eldest son, which makes him Lucas' half-brother. Petyr is an ambitious man and a schemer. After the death of his father, he follows him as the head of House Vyrwel and Lord of Darkdell.

* BigBadDuumvirate: [[spoiler: As it turns out, he is in league with Maron Mullendore, previously thought to be the sole BigBad of the Reach arc, with whom he conspires to take over the city of Raylansfair.]]
* BitchInSheepsClothing: Lucas once considered him a kind-hearted brother. He couldn't have been more wrong. In the end, Petyr is one of the worst people in the entire story, a ruthless schemer and ManipulativeBastard, who tried to kill his own father, framed his brother for it and later even succeeded in overthrowing Leo.
* CainAndAbel: He is the Cain to Lucas' Abel. While not outright trying to kill his half-brother (yet), he nonetheless is directly responsible for ruining his life. He has also tried to kill his father and managd to blame Lucas for it.
* [[spoiler: TheCavalry: He and his ally, Maron Mullendore, serve as this in the final stages of the raid on Raylansfair.]]
* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: Despite being an awful person, he truly loves his daughter.
* KarmaHoudini: At least for now, he hasn't received any punishment for his actions, which led to the death of his father and the banishment of Lucas. [[spoiler: Instead, he even got rewarded by saving Raylansfair and winning the trust of the people there, making him a strong contender for the title of the future Lord Raylan.]]
* ManipulativeBastard: He manipulated his father into banishing Lucas and used Lucas' own brotherly feelings against him. This caused Lucas to see his true nature too late to stop him from framing him for his attempted murder of Leo Vyrwel.
* PapaWolf: Threatening his daughter Edith is a ''very'' bad idea, as the Sphynx quickly finds out.
* SelfMadeOrphan: It is heavily implied that he managed to kill his father after all. [[spoiler:Chapter 9 reveals he did.]]
* SmallRoleBigImpact: He initially only appears in Lucas' backstory and for a cameo role in Chapter 6, where it is established that his father passed away, but he is undoubtedly the most important person in Lucas' life, having sent him down the path that led to his current position. Therefore, Petyr has influenced the entire story with his actions, via DisasterDominoes.
* VillainWithGoodPublicity: Despite his [[SelfMadeOrphan actions]], he is regarded as a nobleman of the Reach and therefore treated with a lot of respect. He is also well-loved by the smallfolk for his charisma.

[[folder: Ser Lucas Flowers]]
--> See [[Characters/ForumOfThronesRaylansfair Forum Of Thrones - Raylansfair]]
[[/folder]]
[[folder: Edith Flowers]]
!!Edith Flowers
The young bastard daughter of Petyr Vyrwel and a common servicemaid. Edith is her father's most precious family member and the one he keeps as close as possible, even taking her with him to Raylansfair.

* ChildrenAreInnocent: Unlike her father, Edith doesn't seem to have a bad bone in her. Mostly due to her young age, she does not even fully understand why her uncle is imprisoned and cannot believe that he truly did anything wrong.
* GirlyGirlWithATomboyStreak: Though visually a GirlyGirl and proper noble lady, with a fine dress and a nice hairdo, she gets tomboy points for sneaking into the dungeons of Raylansfair against her father's orders, to meet her imprisoned uncle.
* LastEpisodeNewCharacter: She is introduced in the final chapter of Book 1.
* MoralityPet: Edith is this to her father in spades. She is the only person he has expressed open fondness for so far and when the Sphynx threatens her [[PapaWolf Petyr quickly reminds him of his place]].

[[folder: Ser Hugo Farnham]]
!!Ser Hugo Farnham
One of the knights in service of House Vyrwel of Darkdell, Hugo is a loyal man, as well as dedicated to his service to the lord of his house, yet nonetheless a firmly honourable person.

* FriendlyEnemy: Hugo and Leonard Constantine have met each other years ago and gotten along well, becoming friends quickly. Later on, Hugo is ordered to take Leonard into custody, putting them at opposing sides, though they are still shown to be friendly and respectful with each other.
* LastEpisodeNewCharacter: He is introduced in the final chapter of Book 1.
* MyMasterRightOrWrong: Hugo outright states to disagree with the orders he was given and that he believes in Leonard's innocence. However, his loyalty to House Vyrwel trumps these doubts, so he goes along with the order regardless.
* NobleTopEnforcer: Technically, Hugo is a villain, being in service of House Vyrwel of Darkdell, whose lord is one of the stories BigBad. However, beyond that, he holds no villainous trait, as he is a friendly, respectful man and actually gets along well with Leonard, the man he is supposed to capture for his lord.

!!!House Lowther
-> ''"A Friend in Need"''
-->-- '''Words of House Lowther'''

[[folder: Lord Hobert Lowther]]
!!Lord Hobert Lowther
!!!The Lord of Mander's Mouth
The Lord of Mander's Mouth and head of House Lowther. Hobert is seemingly distantly related to House Raylan, which makes him believe that he is the rightful heir to Robert Raylan.

* AffablyEvil: Not a clear villain, Hobert's ambition nonetheless makes him an opponent to the more heroic characters of the story. Despite that, he is undeniably affable, [[SoreLoser most of the times]].
* AmbitionIsEvil: His only truly villainous trait is his extreme ambition, which is enough to make him consider extreme methods to secure his power in Raylansfair.
* AppealToForce: This is the abovementioned extreme method he is implied to plan. His soldiers are inside the city walls and he was perfectly willing to use them to overpower the guard and just claim the lordship for himself. That was until [[SpannerInTheWorks Argella]] arrived with an equally large host of better trained soldiers.
* CampStraight: Despite his effeminate behaviour, Hobert is confirmed to be straight and one of his first scenes shows him in the company of a prostitue.
* CasanovaWannabe: Hobert is a flirt, but thanks to his blatantly obvious SmugSnake qualities, he comes across as too confrontational, if not outright creepy in his interactions with women, rarely making any sort of positive impression on them unless he pays them.
* TheDandy: He puts quite a lot of pride and care in his appearance, avoiding any sort of physical confrontation if possible, rather letting his men do it for him.
* HandsomeLech: Hobert has a certain handsomeness about him, on top of being a CasanovaWannabe.
* ItsAllAboutMe: One of Hobert's most obvious traits is his selfishness. Even though he knows his claim for Raylansfair is shaky at the very best, he tries his best to stir up trouble, so that he can take the city in the end.
* MilesGloriosus: Part of his SmallNameBigEgo persona. Hobert sees himself as a capable and badass GuileHero, when he is actually the complete opposite.
* ScrewThisImOuttaHere: After losing the power struggle for Raylansfair, he and his men leave instantly. This becomes a problem for the people of Raylansfair, when the Ironborn attack shortly afterwards.
* SharpDressedMan: He desperately tries to pull this trope off.
* SissyVillain: Hobert's behaviour shows many effeminate qualities and he is also a minor antagonist in Book 1.
* SmallNameBigEgo: Hobert is the head of House Lowther, one of the smallest and most insignificant houses in the Reach. During the SuccessionCrisis in Raylansfair, he sees himself as an equal to Harlen Tyrell, the castellan of Highgarden and personal ambassador of King Mern Gardener, as well as Argella Durrandon, daughter and heiress of the most powerful man in Westeros.
* SmugSnake: His ego is highly inflated, yet ultimately part of his downfall. And his refusal to accept defeat after it becomes clear that he won't win even makes him lose his dignity.
* SoreLoser: Once it becomes clear that he won't win in Raylansfair, Hobert gets increasingly more angry and insulting in his behaviour, up to the point where he loses all hints of dignity.
* TooDumbToLive: Surely, insulting [[BadassPrincess Argella Durrandon]] to her face is a good idea, right? Luckily for him, it didn't cost him anything, but considering what her father recently [[AnArmAndALeg did]] to someone who accidentally insulted his daughter, it was an incredibly stupid and reckless thing to do.

[[folder: Malkolm Sternhelm]]
!!Malkolm Sternhelm
A high-ranking soldier under Hobert's command, serving as his personal bodyguard and second-in-command of his soldiers.

* DirtyOldMan: He isn't that old, but he still has a thing for women about half his age. Ilish and Daisy, both about twenty years old, have surely noticed this.
* TheDragon: Malkolm is constantly seen on Hobert's side and seems to be his most trusted soldier, which would make him this.
* PunchClockVillain: Though not exactly a nice guy, Malkolm doesn't show any signs of villainous behaviour when he isn't on duty in his work for Hobert.
* TheQuietOne: Especially when he is on duty, but even when not, Malkolm rarely says more than necessary.

Lord of Old Oak and head of House Oakheart. He has recently betrothed his son Edwin to Petyr Vyrwel's younger sister. [[spoiler:He also happens to be allied with Petyr Vyrwel and Maron Mullendore in conspiring with betraying the Reach to Harren Hoare.]]

* FalseFriend: [[spoiler:Lies to his king that he can trust Vyrwel and Mullendore, when he's conspiring with them to betray him to Harren Hoare.]]

A... [[{{Understatement}} strange]] man who lives alone in the forests around Raylansfair. He claims to be a philosopher and his only companion is his dove, Hildemara.

* CloudCuckoolander: Dimitri is the stories prime example and he is this UpToEleven.
* TheHermit: He has become one by choice, never seeking out others, though he offers advice to anyone who manages to find him.
* IceCreamKoan: Unfortunately, his advice is almost exclusively some sort of this trope.
* UnusualPetsForUnusualPeople: His loyal pet companion is a dove whom he has named Hildemara.
* WhatHappenedToTheMouse: He is left in the forest after Maya flees from the Band of Claws. It is unknown if they found him or what they did to him, though the character list in the main post of the story keeps him under the "Deceased or Unknown" category.

!!!The Hammered Harp Inn
[[folder: Aylard Kawl]]
!!Aylard Kawl
The founder and owner of the Hammered Harp Inn. Formerly a soldier, he settled down with his wife and their numerous children to fully dedicate himself to managing the tavern on the busy road between Raylansfair and Highgarden

* DropTheHammer: His weapon of choice in the army of the Reach has been a warhammer, which he took with him when he was honourably discharged.
* DullEyesOfUnhappiness: [[spoiler: After Lunett's death, his stare becomes as dull and sorrowful as his entire existence.]]
* HeartbrokenBadass: He gets badass points for being an old, experienced soldier. The heartbroken part comes into action when one considers that his wife and six children have died before the story started. [[spoiler: Later on, he becomes even more heartbroken when his daughter Lunett dies.]]
* {{Jerkass}}: It's not hard to admit, Aylard is kind of a jerk. He is rude, with a bit of a temper and prone to act irrational. In fact, these traits make it hard to like him even after all he has lost. However, it has been implied that exactly these losses have triggered his jerkish qualities, making it more of a case of TookALevelInJerkass.
* OldSoldier: Aylard used to be a soldier in his youth, who retired after he got honourably discharged.
* OutlivingOnesOffspring: He had eight children together with his wife. At the beginning of the story, only Lunett and Sawyer are still alive. [[spoiler: It comes up again when Lunett dies, meaning that he outlived seven of his children.]]
* PapaWolf: One of Aylard's few positive traits is his absolute love and care for his children. He occasionally crossed into OverprotectiveDad territory, but most of the time, his worry for them is justified.
* RoaringRampageOfRevenge: [[spoiler: After Lunett's death, he goes on one, fully intending to kill Lucas and being completely unable to be reasoned with, until he finally gets taken down, nonlethaly.]]
* TraumaCongaLine: His recent life after retiring can be summed up as this in general. First, a terrible sickness hits his inn, claiming the life of his wife and six of their children. Then, a bandit clan hits his inn, claiming the life of one of his barmaids and forcing him to leave his home behind. [[spoiler: Then, his eldest daughter runs away and is promptly murdered, leaving him with only one living child.]]

[[folder: Lunett Kawl]]
!!Lunett Kawl
Aylard's eldest child and only living daughter. Lunett is a dreamer, sick of her life at the inn and wishing for adventure to happen and take her away, to faraway lands.

* [[spoiler: AnArmAndALeg: Before murdering her, Mullendore severs both of her feet. He notably does it only ForTheEvulz, since Lucas isn't even there to answer any questions.]]
* BeCarefulWhatYouWishFor: Lunett yearns to go on an adventure and even manipulates Lucas and Leonard to take her with them to the city of [[ViceCity Oldtown]]. Unfortunately for her, she lives in a CrapsackWorld and slowly has to realize the harsh reality of all this.
* [[spoiler: CruelAndUnusualDeath: Maron Mullendore takes her hostage, mutilates, rapes and blind her before killing her, all just to prove a point to her lover.]]
* [[spoiler: EyeScream: Her CruelAndUnusualDeath prominently involves her getting brutally blinded by Mullendore.]]
* {{Hallucinations}}: While he is Maron Mullendore's prisoner, Lucas sees her, among others, as a hallucination, brought up by his subconsciousness due to the intense pain he suffered. [[spoiler: She is far more mean-spirited than she used to be in life and bitterly blames Lucas for her death, which shows just how much Lucas is blaming himself.]]
* [[spoiler: HeroicSacrifice: Admittely, she had no idea that it would end as one of these, but she knew that staying behind to block the door would be dangerous. She did it regardless, to prevent the Solvers from catching Dairon.]]
* TheIngenue: Sweet, but highly naive and with a behaviour so overly trusting that it easily causes problems for her and others.
* InterclassRomance: Even though he is a bastard, she is far below Lucas' social standing. They both plan to make it work regardless.
* [[spoiler: KillTheCutie: One of the most innocent characters in the story, as well as one of the first to die.]]
* [[spoiler: TheLostLenore: Her death has an incredible impact on Lucas, with whom she had a RelationshipUpgrade not long before her death.]]
* MassivelyNumberedSiblings: Lunett is the oldest of eight siblings.
* NiceGirl: Lunett is among the nicest characters in the story, with genuine innocence and more optimism than most other characters combined.
* PluckyGirl: Despite everything around her, Lunett remains brave and optimistic.
* [[spoiler: SacrificialLion: Lunett is the first big character to die in the story, after being a major part of Lucas' storyline and his love interest, to cement Maron Mullendore's status as the BigBad.]]
* SingleWomanSeeksGoodMan: This is the reason she is so attracted to Lucas. Since he seeks for a kind-hearted NiceGirl, they make a good match as well and receive plenty of ShipTease, as well as a quick RelationshipUpgrade.
* WideEyedIdealist: Lunett always tries to see the best in others, even if they are likely bad guys. She is overly trusting and naive, which proves to be a fatal flaw in [[CrapsackWorld Westeros]].
* WrongGenreSavvy: She thinks the world of Westeros is a standard HighFantasy world, with noble [[KnightInShiningArmour Knights In Shining Armour]] that always defeat the ObviouslyEvil villains, a world in which she is the heroes good-hearted love interest that will get to live with him happily ever after. Naturally, she couldn't be more wrong.

The youngest and only living son of Aylard Kawl, as well as the younger brother of Lunett. Sawyer is a young child, living at the inn with the rest of the Hammered Harp cast.

* MassivelyNumberedSiblings: Sawyer is the youngest of eight siblings.
