Urrigon died at age 14 due to an infection caused by a bad reattachment of his fingers by a Maester after an accident during a Finger Dance with his brother Aeron. The death of Urri partly contributed to what the Greyjoy brothers became. With the North at war, Robb sends Theon to Pyke to ally with his father, Balon Greyjoy.

Family tree of House Greyjoy

Euron quickly claims the Seastone Chair as the oldest surviving brother of Balon. However, Aeron calls for a kingsmoot, hoping that Victarion will succeed Balon to the Seastone Chair instead of Euron, whom Aeron despises. Euron is crowned, however, beating out Asha, Victarion, and several other claimants by promising to conquer all the green lands using the dragons of Daenerys Targaryen. Aeron disappears shortly after the kingsmoot, vowing to rouse the people against the "godless" Euron.

King Balon Greyjoy, the Ninth of His Name since the Grey King

During the imprisonment, Ramsay severely tortured and abused Theon physically and psychologically, forcing him to take the name of “Reek”. One of the salt-sons of Dalton Greyjoy who became the new Lord of Pyke in the aftermath of the Red Kraken's death. His claim was disputed by his aunts and several cousins, while others supported his half-brother Rodrik instead. The brutal retaliation of the Westerlanders allowed him to solidify his rule, at only six years old. The late fourth son of Quellon Greyjoy and his wife of House Sunderly.

This is a listing of members of House Greyjoy who appear in A Song of Ice and Fire.

Once through the gate, you turned immediately to your right and continued up a dark passageway, then made another right turn to the front door. It was like entering a cave with secret stone tunnels, within which only the initiated could feel comfortable. All others proceeded with great caution, not knowing which way to turn. While I was losing myself in the weeds of misery that grow thick in Westeros and Essos alike, I lost sight of the nature of the story I was watching. Despite the way it may feel during down weeks or even down seasons, Game of Thrones is not about eternally spinning wheels of suffering. Rather, to use Daenerys’s words, it’s about smashing those wheels into a million pieces.

He also threw drug-infused, hedonistic parties and orgies in his gold bedroom. In the late 1910s, the young architect Lloyd Wright came to Los Angeles at the request of his father, the legendary Frank Lloyd Wright. Over the next few years, the younger Wright worked with his father on many commissions, including Los Feliz's famous Hollyhock House. In 1924, the elder Wright left LA, telling his son, “I'm fed up here. You're young enough to take Los Angeles.” Take Los Angeles Lloyd did.

Tristifer Botley is your man if you’re in a meta where 3 NCUs is the standard. Against a 3 NCU list he forces a dead activation on your choice of turn, and is worth four condition tokens on top of that. Against two NCUs he’s much less powerful so only bring him if you know what you’re up against.

Which is to say, Game of Thrones isn’t another tired conflict over the soul of the world. In the scheme of things, it’s just a particularly heavy deck chair on the Titanic. What we saw last night, at long last, was the entirety of the iceberg. I do not think anything quite has the raw power of Asha as Commander putting all those Ironmakers on 5+ morale but even if you don’t take her as your Commander you’ll almost certainly be bringing her anyway. Four points for a ranged unit, even the worst ranged unit, is nothing.

Balon IX Greyjoy

The Lord eventually got killed at Faircastle by a woman named Tess. In the A Song of Ice and Fire novels, the Greyjoys have been a powerful family in the Islands for possibly thousands of years, long ruling the formidable castle of Pyke. When King Harren the Black was slain by King Aegon the Conqueror during the Targaryen invasion, the ironborn elected Lord Vickon Greyjoy of Pyke to succeed him as ruler of the isles, now oath-sworn to the Iron Throne. With 5+ saves and 7+ morale these guys crumple like wet cardboard.

If Asha isn’t your commander, she’s here as the one point Captain of the Black Wind. There’s no better thing to spend your point on in the game – Warcry and +2 morale to Ironmakers turns them into absolute bricks, offensively and defensively. Speaking of morale, the Would Be Queen again suffers the main problem of not being Captain Asha.

He becomes one of Robb’s guards and fights the battle in the Whispering Woods. He travels to Riverrun with Robb, where the latter gets named King in the North. After Lord Jon Arryn passes away, King Robert Baratheon travels to Winterfell and asks Eddard Stark to become the new Hand of the King. Upon accepting, he leaves Winterfell and his son, Robb Stark, who becomes Lord of Winterfell.

However, before Aegon’s Conquest, King Harren the Black ruled from the Neck to the Blackwater Rush. The Ironborn were then confined to rule their dismal islands and were subservient to the king's peace. The Greyjoys largely distanced themselves from the other Great Houses and the mainland which they referred to as the "green lands". For thousands of years, raiders from the Iron Islands were the terrors of the seas. They prided themselves on their fierceness in battle and their sacred freedoms. The High King of the Isles was chosen from among their number during the kingsmoot.

Earlier in the series, Theon became a ward of the Starks after the Greyjoy rebellion. He was raised alongside the Stark children and became good friends with Robb. After Eddard Stark is killed, Theon betrays the Starks by seizing Winterfell and taking Bran and Rickon hostage. George was acquitted after launching a smear campaign directed at his daughter.

A strong-willed and independent lady, Asha is very ambitious and often enjoys teasing her younger brother, Theon. Popular with the crew of the ship she captains but resents the unwillingness of most Ironmen to accept a female leader. Though the Greyjoys were not tactically skilled, they had resilience and were a formidable foe on the sea. Their fleet might made them a worthy contender during the War of the Five Kings.
