Lord Daemon of House Brune is the twenty-something lord of Dyre Den. The fourth born son of Lord Eustace, Daemon was never expected to ascend to his father's seat and only did so in dire circumstances. A renowned smuggler and charmer, Daemon has found himself on the wrong side of the law several times, having turned Dyre Den into a veritable hive of criminality.

Appearance & Character Edit

Although a taller and lithe man, Daemon is not without a certain wiry strength. His black hair is often kept close cut and though he prefers to remain clean shaven, he has been known to grow his facial should the mood strike. He is handsome in a way, and his eyes are a pale blue.

He is well kept, his life of crime funding the various luxuries Daemon has been known to indulge in. Daemon abhors the harder lifestyle chosen by many Clawmen. He is often found in darker fineries, or should the moment call for it a full set of black riding leathers. Should he be regaled for combat, his armour is tinted black with the paw of House Brune inlaid in bright brass.

A rogue in every sense of the word, Daemon is as quick to laugh as he is to anger. His upbringing instilled little loyalty in his nature, and he is considered changeable by his peers. A silver-tongued charmer of sorts, he has talked his way out of trouble numerous times and can appear every bit the consummate noble despite his ill-behaved lifestyle.

History Edit

Daemon was born the fourth son of Lord Eustace Brune and his lady wife Perra Pyne in 73 AC. Preceded by his brothers Samwell, Monford and Thoren, he was extraneous from birth and both his mother and father were said to have been disappointed as to miss out on a girl once more. His formative years were unremarkable, though the lad was often found abroad with his cousin Yna, until the commencement of what came to be known as the Hook Uprising in 78 AC. Though only five years old at the start of the conflict, the uprising would cost Daemon both his elder brothers and his Lord father as they rose in defiance of House Targaryen and the inept King.

Thoren Thirdborn assumed the lordship following the conclusion of the fighting, but had little time for his younger brother. Thoren was consumed by the reparations and reputation rebuilding effort, following the folly of his father.

As Daemon grew, the negligence of his brother saw him drawn to the lesser knights and rogues that Dyre Den had accumulated in the years following rebellion. He was often found “squiring” for Black Pate, a hedge knight of ill repute in Cracklaw Point who faced frequent accusations of being an outlaw and robber. Such slander was not without some truth, and indeed Pate was at best a smuggler. The many small natural coves of Cracklaw Point were his world, receiving illicit goods from Essos and Westeros alike, and before long Daemon grew to become his protege. It is at some point during these years that he first encountered the Thieves Guild, a fraternity of like minded individuals who would he increasingly work with as his criminal career developed.

The brother of Lord Brune was a boon indeed, allowing Pate and co. to operate with ever growing impunity. For years, the band had the running of large tracts of land in Cracklaw Point, feuding frequently with other Clawmen and smugglers alike; often under the banner of House Brune. Thoren knew of his brothers antics, but could do little to stop them as he strove to reestablish House Brune in the estimations of their peers.

In 93AC Thoren Brune perished, childless and unmarried. A fever took him and he never recovered. With no issue, Daemon was by rights his heir and assumed the lordship of Dyre Den. It was a fortuitous piece of luck for the younger Brune, who had several run ins with Harry Darry, Justice of the King and frequent antagonist of Black Pate and his colleagues. Not six months before, the justice's men had attacked a hideout on Cracklaw; killing all bar Daemon and the odd few who had escaped. Guile alone spared Daemon from the hangman’s noose, talking his way from trouble and posing the hostage rather than the co-conspirator.

Daemon was not cowed by this near brush with the law. He assumed command of what remained quickly, knowing all of Pate's trade secrets. Indeed, many of Pate's old co-conspirators were rapidly assimilated into this new-look crime network, allowing the transition to occur easily and quickly. The Lordship only furthered his air of legitimacy, and within two months of his brothers’ passing Daemon had assumed control of Dyre Den; rapidly replacing Thoren’s appointed servants with his own.

Slowly but surely, Daemon transformed Dyre Den into a veritable hub of all things illegal. His guardsmen were almost all of black heart and history, whilst all his council had been co-conspirators at one point or another during his adult life.
