was born the second daughter, and fourth and final child of the union between her Lord father, Gunthor Arryn , and her Lady mother, Ryella Grafton. She is the current Queen of the Seven Kingdoms by her marriage to King Viserys I Targaryen. Unlike her elder sister, Zhoe has proven to be a quiet and restrained young lady. A girl of beauty for all to see, though the young Arryn remains slightly oblivious to the blessing she has been given as she remained mostly sheltered away within the fortress of House Arryn

Appearance and Character Edit

A tall and lithe lady, Zhoe Arryn has a slender frame and soft pale skin. Her eyes a deep bright mixture of blue and green and her long dark brown hair is regularly braided into ornate and complicated patterns. Her expressions are soft and welcoming, even to those she doesn't know. Zhoe's eyes are a beautiful mix of the two colours, catching other peoples gaze and often holding them on her.

She will most often be dressed in bright silks and is particularly fond of green and blue, even on simple days within her home Zhoe is will put together taking much care with her clothes, hair, and general outfit no matter what the occasion is, or if there is no occasion.

Zhoe has been a quiet girl for most of her life, except when very young. Now she keeps herself to herself, spending most of her time with her Ladies in waiting, either reading books on healing and the body or studying foreign languages. But as she grows older, she has started to emerge from her shell a little. Being more open to meeting visitors of the Eyrie and the possibility of meeting potential suitors plays on her mind more often than ever before. She follows the Faith of the Seven, but is not a particularly pious individual due to all the loss she has had to endure within her family.

History Edit

As a young child, Zhoe was playful and even a little boisterous. But when the death of her two elder brothers Corwyn and Arthor came in 85 AC, Zhoe grew more cautious though still expressive and joyous inside the Eyrie, the rare ventures out would bring out a different more conservative version of her.

When her mother died in 86 AC, that was the end of the expressive and adventurous Zhoe Arryn. The young Arryn would be known to lock herself away and not let anyone in, even her own family were oftentimes turned away, or at least Zhoe tried to turn them away. It was in the years following her mother's suicide that she turned to books, at first happy adventures of brave knights and princess, magical stories of mythical places, and eventually the histories of Westeros and beyond. Which planted the seed for a later fascination, as Zhoe moved into her teenage years she grew fascinated by languages, and time spent alone would often be spent practicing many languages. Some she studied every day, working towards fluency. High Valyrian the most prominent of those, a language that she practiced day and night for many a moon when she first discovered that she had a natural talent for languages, absorbing the words in a way few can. But others were simply distractions, fun new experiences that grew old eventually and withered out.

Zhoe may be soft and sweet in many ways, but she has little patience for foolishness, as her sister Teora regularly finds out. Her younger sister's antics may amuse some, but not Zhoe. She is known to scoff and avoid giving her sister the attention she wants by simply walking away from her when Teora acts out.

Now, as her teenage years come to a close Zhoe spends the majority of her time surrounded by her ladies in waiting, no longer the self-appointed loner. Her first Lady in waiting became her closest friend, Alys Corbray, and now she has two additional Ladies who double as friends and charges. Zhoe tries to mentor the girls as much as she can, even if most of them are hardly younger than herself and the Arryn had led a sheltered life without a great deal of knowledge of the world to pass on. She has remained mostly immune to the charms of the men and boys who have come to visit the Eyrie, in her younger years she would go out of her way to avoid them, hiding in the gardens or within her room unless summoned. But by now, she is curious and open to their advances, even if her standards are unrealistic and her expectations even more so.

Family Edit

Zhoe is a strong but silent supporter of both her father's rule and her sister Ysilla's right to rule after him. Her father has been distant almost her life, and she holds some resentment towards him for that. And she doesn't agree with all of Gunthor's decisions or rulings, but she would lack the courage to ever dream of confronting him or speaking of her doubts publicly. Instead, she whispers any disobedient thoughts to her ladies, and nobody else. Zhoe is smart and educated lady, with strong views hidden behind a quiet exterior, but if somebody where to dig deep enough they would soon find what lies behind the surface.
