(ARCHIVED - RETCONNED) Edit

Armond Blackwood is the current Lord of Raventree Hall. He is firstborn son to Lady Miriam Blackwood and late Lord Arwood Blackwood. Becoming lord at eighteen years old after Lady Miriam lost the faith of House Blackwood and forced to abdicate Armond.

Appearance and Character Edit

Armond has many looks of the first men with his dark hair and grey eyes. As well holding many traits of his father Arwood which many note where is good looks come from. Commonly seen wearing fine clothing dyed black and red. A white shirt is always under his coats and not one for jewels.

Friendly, outspoken, honorable, and loyal are some words used when Armond is brought up in talks. He embodies lessons taught to him by his father and Ser Ethan Blackwood who he squired under. Though his mother's treatment and cold treatment toward his father had made him seek a better way to talk and show the good will of House Blackwood. Never one to quickly condemn someone or rush to conflict.

History Edit

Armond was born in 80 AC in Raventree Hall. Spending most of his childhood among other Blackwoods. Though his house was lacking in male cousins so he found many friends within the matriarchs of the family. Not to say Arwood did not take an interest in his son. Always finding time when Miriam was away from the boy to teach him a lesson on duty and service as well as their northern roots.

A Knight Among Ravens Edit

Arwood would have Ser Ethan Blackwood take Armond as a squire believing he needed to see the world and spend time with his great-uncle. One of few male blackwoods left who had wise behind them. Miriam was not pleased with the idea but this is one moment where Arwood had to go against her will.

Ethen took the young boy traveling the Iron Throne's different regions for a short time. During their journeys, it had proven to show that Armond would not be the greatest warrior of this generation but he had skills in leading and talking to people. Once they had returned to Raventree Hall the Rosegold Rebellion was at the boiling point.

A Son With Out His Father Edit

Once the rebellion started Armond had to say goodbye to his father. The boy did not know this would be their final goodbye to each other. Miriam did not allow her son to join his uncle in the conflict. Learning the daily running of the keep and lands.

He would become interested in his cousin Serena who was the daughter of Ser Ethan and Samantha Manderly. This interest grows into a love for her and his mother made note of this keeping them apart. Wanting to marry Armond to a House that could strengthen Blackwood's influence.

Once the conflict came to an end and Arwood's body had returned. Miriam's lack of mourning toward his father caused him to leave Raventree Hall for a time with his uncle. Spending time in Riverrun and getting to know his Tully kinsmen.

A Kingdom of Winter and The Old Gods Edit

Traveling by sea to White Harbor to visit the Manderly's alongside Ethan and his uncle's family. He enjoyed the North though the colder climax was not something completely new but northern weather lack any forgiveness. Though he would marry Serena in the North before the Old Gods.

He even gained the honor to meet King Alaric Stark. Which they spoke about reconnecting the Old God and First Men houses in the south and their northern cousins. Finding the Stark king a kind old man who embodied his crown and people.

On his return southward he made a stop in the Neck to visit his Reed cousins. Upon his return to the Riverlands at the beginning of 98 AC. Armond would find what his lady mother had destroyed his family name.

A Lord and Knight Has Returned Edit

Once returning to Raventree Hall his family were quick to inform him about Miriam's mismanagement and one sided feud with the king. As well her less then ladylike usage of his kinswomen and herself. Armond was disgusted by his own mother and with her own treatment of her family had pushed the family to far.

Armond would rally a number of his house's bannermen and his own men who were from across the different kingdoms joined his side. Leading into a open civil war between Miriam supporters and Armond supporters becoming known as the Crows and Ravens respectively.

The Crows and Ravens War Edit

The conflict would only hold two battles in which there was the siege of Cairns which only lasted a few weeks before Armond's forces took the village with the aid of smallfolk. Causing his mother's supporters to hold a grown village that was about to become a town called Raventon which was set ablaze by Miriam's men which slowed the Ravens. Ordered to help put out the flames and aid smallfolk.

Finally, the battle of outside Raventon ended the Crows'cause when the rest of House Blackwoods' bannermen had arrive but sided with Armond and the Crows put up a brave last stand. Though it was not enough to win them the day. The civil war would end with Miriam abdicating Armond and being exile to stay within King's landings to act as diplomat for them under watch by the Ravens.

The Roses Try Again Edit

Armond would answer the King's call to armies against the Reach but firstly he swears his fealty to Lady Tully and explaining the outcome of the minor conflict among Blackwood. Promising this would not happen again. He would be knighted by his uncle Ethan before he commanded Ethan to lead the Blackwood forces with the other riverlords.

As he was needed to restore the damage done by his mother and help his smallfolk harmed by the civil conflict. As well as the few members of his court who were Crows and seek to restore his mother believing the young lord had become disconnected to the Riverlands by his journeys and even challenging his marriage to his cousin. Seeing as some activities to show his support to the North and their independence.

The Old Prophet’s Rebellion Edit

The young Blackwood lord would not be gifted peace or rest when he heard old god followers had been rallied against Lord Strong. This shocked Armond to his core as many of his people were followers of the Old Gods and himself. So, he quickly rallied his household knights and some of his men left behind from the Reach. Joined the Strong cause to find a peaceful end to this rebellion.

As well as showing the other riverlords that House Blackwood had no part in this conflict or backing. As Armond used his renown among the people and minor nobles to turn away from the self-styled Prophet's words and keep faith with House Tully. Not once had they harmed them under their rule.
