Ser Reynard Tarly is a knight of the Queensguard, sworn into service by King Aenar I Targaryen and has been protecting the royal family for the past sixteen years.

Appearance and Character

A broad-shouldered well built older man with eyes of bright emerald that contrast greatly with hair as black as night. As a younger man he was far hard upon the eyes, but now with age, and after many years of service, his features have turned to look worn as it would for any man under the same conditions. That does not mean he does not make an effort to still look his best. His thick beard is always oiled and well groomed, while his hair is kept short and neat.

History

As a young man, Reynard had many of the same motivations in life that many other young men do, gaining glory, honor, women, fame, ect. His life of a squire and then that of a newly knighted knight was mainly spent traveling, going from tourney to tourney. Always aiming to prove himself as the glorious knight he thought he was, to one day be written into the annals of history like men like Aegon the Dragonknight. The Targaryen lived almost 300 hundred years ago and is still remembered well today for his great feats.

While he was able to make his way in the tourneys, gaining both gold and glory, along with the occasional pretty lady here and there, it was not enough. He knew he could only get so far as a famed tourney knight, but then came The Hammer Uprising. There in a war, in the midst of a grand battles, in the midst of blood and dying men, he would prove himself to he who was most high, the king.

So, Reynard as a knight offered his sword to the king to fight for him in the battles to come, even following the Lord Commander of the Kingsguard when he had first been sent to dispense justice. As the rebellion proceeded, and battles raged on, Reynard stood stand tall and fierce even when men of the Kingsguard, renowned for being the best swordsmen in the realm, fell beside him.

The rebellion had been long, it had been bloody, and Reynard had lost many of friends in it, but he still lived through it all. When it was done and over the Kingsguard had laid mostly bare as many had fallen in battle, and many knights who had proven their valor on the field, those who had preformed great deeds in the war, like Reynard, were called forth to replenish their ranks. The then young Tarly had enthusiastically accepted the position. Now he would certainly be written into history, but he still had to make sure his history would not just sit on some dusty shelf to be forgotten about.

For over the next to decades of his life Reynard served the king faithfully and honorably up until his death, and now is dedicated in serving the Queen in very much the same way, if not even more so. It was strange, he found it oddly more satisfying protecting a Queen rather then a King.
