Appearance and Character Edit

Edwyn is a large and muscular man, with wide shoulders and a barrel chest. His red hair is long and wild, and his eyes are a piercing blue. He looks every bit the stallion that adorns his family arms.

Edwyn is a kind and friendly person, with a great deal of care and consideration for all people. His knightly vows are central to his existence, though he is constantly in conflict with this and his love for Melarra Blackwood and their bastard child. Edwyn is a talented harpist, singer, and poet.

History Edit

Edwyn was born in the year 108 AC, the second child of Humfrey Bracken and Agnes Tully. From a young age Humfrey showed signs of his size and strength, and quickly caught up in size to his older brother Lyle.

When he was seven, Edwyn was sent to King's Landing to serve as a page, for King Viserys himself no less. Humfrey Bracken maintains that this was to keep the boy safe from the growing rebellion, but rumours of Bracken sympathies for the Cobblers resulted in Lord Bracken making an attempt to show favour to the Crown. Edwyn enjoyed his life in the capital quite a lot, and grew a strong appreciation for courtly life. It was here he began learning how to play the harp and to sing, both of which he continues in the present day.

At twelve, Edwyn left King's Landing and travelled to Dorne to serve as a squire for Lord Martyn Tarbeck. Already larger and stronger than most boys, Edwyn took to knightly training with ease and pleasure. The secondborn son of a lord, Edwyn was allowed to focus all of his efforts in the pursuit of becoming a skilled warrior, and he succeeded in this endeavour.

Following an upbringing marred by war and conflict, Edwyn's teenage years were largely of the peacemaking sort. His days were spent training, playing, and singing, all of which he came to be good at. As he developed, his emotional leanings brought him to poetry, and the young Edwyn began using poems as a means of courting the noblewomen he met over the years. He travelled Dorne with Lord Tarbeck, and learned a great deal from his mentor.

At sixteen Edwyn left Dorne and returned home to his family. Edwyn developed strong bonds with his family, as well as the smallfolk beholden to Stone Hedge. After a few years, Edwyn was awarded his spurs and annointed a knight. WIth this, Edwyn began to travel to tourneys and earned renowned for his skills in both the melees and the lists. He became well liked, and life was good, but it was not long before tragedy struck.

When only twenty, Lyle Bracken suddenly and mysteriously died. The circumstances of the death of Lord Bracken's heir were known to no one, and it troubled the Bracken family greatly. Edwyn was thrust into the position of heir, and his father blamed the Blackwoods for witchcraft, of which his proof was nothing more than enmity. It was around this time, however, that Edwyn had fallen in love with Melarra Blackwood, and due to his father's wrath chose to keep the romance a secret, even though it resulted in a son. Still, Lord Bracken knows neither of the relationship nor of his grandson.
