Appearance and Character

Standing at 5'10", Yoren is his mother's height but shorter than his elder brother. He received the light hair and eyes from his mother's side, an appearance typical of those descended from the house since the Age of Heroes. He is more studious than his brother, yet still will fight with him as need be. A student of military strategy, he has a tactician's mind well suited on the field of battle and at court.

History

Early Life

Yoren was raised by his father first and his mother second. As the second son, he was trained in stewardship and the management of the household in addition to the typical upbringing of a knight. Never expecting to inherit, Yoren turned what ambitions he had towards his education and self-improvement.

Yoren and his elder brother, Quentyn, were inseparable their entire childhood. With no enmity between them regarding succession, they played off each others' strengths as frequently as able.

Adolescense

Yoren was more often seen in the library of Yronwood than in the yard as his brother was; but, he would often sneak out to train at night in secret. Finding combat to be more of a challenge than books, he set goals for himself to improve regardless of what was expected of him.

The two eldest brothers often worked together as one--inseperable. Yoren's tenacity to keep Yronwood ready for anything is likely what caused their drift in the coming years; but, it was a long while until that moment arrived and when it did it was with a vengence.

It first came with Yoren's more tolerant approach towards the R'hllorists who plagued Dorne. Quentyn wished them to die or convert whereas Yoren saw it was far more prudent to allow them to live in harmony with the Seven and perhaps even leverage their beliefs to their benefit. The two clashed more than once on this front in the years that followed.

The War of Stone and Sky

When his mother sent him to Myr, Yoren did not argue like his brother. Rather, he enjoyed the opportunity to go abroad and see what there was to see in the world. He spent much of his time there examining Myrish books along with teaching his younger siblings in the absense of their Maester. When they finally returned it was much to his surprise to find his father dead.

He agreed with his brother at this point, treachery and lies felled his father. Martell may have allowed the action, but he did nothing beyond attend the funeral. He harbored resentment for the ruling house of Dorne from that moment on. Never expressed overtly, he played the dutiful and loyal vassal all while plotting and planning--and most importantly never forgetting.

Recent Events

When his mother finally passed from the coma she fell into after he fowling accident, Yoren was named heir of his house with his eldest brother Quentyn taking the title of lord and Bloodroyal. He offered to act as steward for his elder brother, an offer that was accepted with gratitude despite their increasingly rocky relationship. It is a position he holds to this day.
