Appearance and Character

Rhea is a woman of great beauty, possessing flowing red locks and piercing blue eyes, skin as pale as ivory, and a lithe figure with a pronounced chest. She has no modesty for this, and shares the same pride in herself as she does with all else she possesses.

In all this she has inherited much from her Baratheon mother, both her height as well as her piercing eyes.

Rhea is commonly adorned in the red of her houses color, and finery fitting a lady of her status.

The Lady Connington's personality is that of a lioness. She will not be stepped on, and more than that she will have only the best. Something about that is often found seductive, which is another trait of the the Lady Connington.

History

Her father Lord Rodrik pushed Rhea to work in his own cold and calculating way, making sure that she'd be able to carry what he had started, especially given Rhea's womanhood, a perceived disadvantage.

Her mother was and still is a driven and passionate woman, and one Rhea has pride in. That, too, drove Rhea to hone herself. Argella, also, raised her daughter to be a folllower of R'hllor. From an early age she was made to stare into the flame, and to understand that the world we live in is one of true good and evil. That morality stuck, but the rest fell apart to Rhea. With the entire rest of her world following the Seven, it became apparent to her that all gods were fictions. She now upholds the Seven as it's the proper way of things, and is the foundation of Westeros.

It was in 430AC that her eldest brother, Stannis, went north for the wall. Not wishing the burden of power upon himself, he left for the the Watch. It wasn't a shock to the family, in fact it made sense for him. This put even more fire under Rhea to train herself, and so she did.

Rhea's education came down to a Connington cousin, who is now deceased. A man of huge intellect, he acquired many links in the citadel of Oldtown. There he spent over twenty six years of his life, returning to his family with knowledge of all things of governance.

Studying alongside him, she learned as much as she could before he passed. He died the same year as her father in 432AC, both to natural causes. And thus Rhea became Lady of Griffen's Roost.

Taking what she was taught by her cousin, her education was furthered alone, and when winter came she was well prepared. With purpose and sacrifice she was able to save up enough food, and convince the right merchants to supply her lands for the following years, that winter wasn't nearly the burden there as it was elsewhere.
