Rosamund Crane is the eldest daughter of Lord Thom Crane and Lady Sarra Graceford of Red Lake. For the past six years, she has acted as Lady of Red Lake in her mother's stead.

Appearance and Character

There is something birdlike about Lady Rosamund, in her slender limbs and graceful movements. More than one would-be bard has penned verses comparing her to Rose of Red Lake, or to the cranes of the lake. Rose, as her brother calls her, is fair-skinned and most often dresses in pale colors to accentuate her coloring, such as the pale blue and gold of her house's colors. She wears her hair down in curls, in the Reach style made iconic by Margaery Tyrell.

Rosamund is well-practiced at a lady's duties and courtesies, and rarely allows her emotions to show. When she does, however, she reveals herself as a young woman deeply worried about herself and her family. Her sleep is often disturbed, whether by dreams or by the call to tend her mother.

History

Born the year of the Hammer Uprising, Rosamund's father was away from Red Lake at the time of her birth. Upon their first meeting, he declared the week-old babe sound of health and fair of face, though he added that she possessed the same eyes as his elder sister Elaena.

Rosamund grew well and quickly, often chasing her brother about the keep when they had both been released from their lessons. She learned diligently, studying with both maester and septa. When her younger sisters were born, she helped as well as a small child could, learning to care for infants as it is assumed she will one day care for her own.

The Great Famine from 392 to 394 saw only small changes within the castle of Red Lake, and Rose remembers it barely, if at all. It was then, however, that her wild-dreams began. When the child woke screaming and spoke of falling from the sky or drowning in the lake, the maester named her troubles 'night terrors' and gave her sleeping draughts. Night terrors should only last a matter of months, though, and neither prayers nor medicines have been able to bring an end to these wild-dreams.

Since the turn of the century, when her mother's illness began, Rosamund has acted as Lady of Red Lake. Balancing the demands of keeping the castle in order with her own education, as well as caring for her mother and encouraging her younger sisters in their lessons, placed a heavy weight on the young girl's shoulders. Many expected Lady Sarra to die during the Scarlet Winter. With careful nursing from the maester and her daughter, Lady Sarra survived the winter and has begun to make a recovery.

With her mother's health restored and the responsibilities of Red Lake lifted, Rosamund has a chance at girlhood for the first time since she was thirteen. She is expected to depart for King's Landing soon, to meet her brother and begin looking for a husband.
