Appearance and Character Edit

Kennett is considered a handsome young man, with wavy toffee brown hair, and stormy grey eyes. He styles a short beard, as he thinks a clean-shaven man is no man.

Losing his father at a young age, Kennett had no one to look up to, forcing him to stand up for himself and be his own man. Unlike his grandfather who is quite bitter sometimes, Kennett is liked by the people, seen as a knight in shiny armor.

History Edit

Kennett Templeton was born in 75 AC as the second child and only son to Alec Templeton and Kella Grafton. His early life was uneventful, until 85 AC when Lord Gunthor Arryn's son, Corwyn Arryn was murdered at the hands of the mountain clans.

Naturally, Lord Arryn called his banners, and House Templeton answered. Ser Lucas Templeton, the Knight of Ninestars, sent his 2 oldest sons, Ser Terrence, and Kennett's father, Alec. The day they marched was the last time Kennett and his sister, Selyse, ever saw their father.

A year later, in 86 AC, only Terrence returned from the two, heavily wounded himself. He had achieved remarkable feats in the battle and was considered a hero. Unfortunately, Alec was not that lucky. As Terrence said, Alec had brought bravely, killing 20 clansmen all by himself before finally going down.

Not long after, Terrence also succumbed to his wounds, and Ser Lucas' second child also passed away. Lucas then started to groom Kennett as the future ruler, training him in the ways of the sword. He taught him how to use the ancestral sword of House Templeton, Deliverance, and how to lead armies. Kennett however, was more interested in sneaking an army into battle. He believed ambushes were the deadliest type of attack strategy.

In 91 AC, Lucas sent the 16-year-old Kennett to squire under Bennard Grafton, Kennett's uncle. Bennard was known for his skill in polearms and marshaling. Polearms didn't interest Kennett much, however, marshaling did. Bennard thaught Kennett the ways of war, teaching him more than Lucas ever did.

Their lessons would pay off in 93 AC when Gwayne Tyrell rebelled against the crown in what was known as the Rosegold Rebellion. Bennard and Kennett marched to King's Landing alongside the rest of the Vale Army.

The Valemen tried their best to stop the attacking Westermen forces, but they failed, falling back as far back as the Red Keep. At one point, Kennett and Bennard were separated from each other and had to continue fighting on their own.

Kennett cut through the opposing soldiers like cake, as most were lowborn knights anyway. At one point, he heard loud roars and men screaming, coming from the direction of the dragon pit. The distraction was enough for a Western knight to stab him in the shoulder. But before he could finish him off, he was killed off by a young Valeboy. The young falcon, Jasper Arryn. Getting up, Kennett regained focus, cutting down Westermen one by one alongisde Jasper and Lord Lucion Corbray, who was with Jasper at the time, but the battle was tough, and Kennett was separated from fellow Valemen once again.

The Vale forces were pushed back all the way to the Red Keep, as even though they fought bravely, the Western forces were too much. The wounded Kennett fell back to the Red Keep. He almost got overwhelmed by the Western forces on his retreat but was fortunately saved by the two young knights, Farlan Reed and Jared Royce, who had later perished as Kennett sadly learned after the battle.

After the battle was over, Kennett was found by Bennard, who knighted Kennett for his actions in the war. Kennett then returned home back to his family, safely and alive. The young knight wanted to find Jasper Arryn, who was also a knight now, to thank him for saving his life, and hoped to serve him, but Ser Lucas forbade it, as he blamed the Arryn's for the death of his two older sons.

Recent Events Edit

Hearing about the royal wedding from his grandfather, Kennett "took" House Templeton's ancient sword, Deliverance, and marched to Harrenhal, hoping to meet the young knight and offer his services to him.
