The Lannisters of Casterly Rock have ruled since the time of Lann the Clever, who used guile to trick the former rulers of Casterly Rock, House Casterly, into giving the Castle to him. From this, the Lannisters have served as Kings of the Rock since the Age of Heroes and Loreon I Lannister, yet were eventually defeated by Aegon Targaryen in his invasion. Now, for 298 years, House Lannister has served as Wardens of the West, the Kingdom of the Rock being lost with the submission of King Loren I Lannister. Identified by distinctive Blond Hair and Natural Beauty, the Lannister House has had a long feud with House Stark of Winterfell dating back to the Rebellion of Robert Baratheon.
Now, the noble and ancient house has managed to become possibly the most powerful family in The Seven Kingdoms, with the head of the family, Tywin Lannister, being considered to be the richest man in Westeros. Likewise, the Lannister influence is seen in the royal court, with Queen Cersei Lannister being the bride to King Robert I, while Jaime Lannister is a member of the Kingsguard.
The children of the King and Queen, however, are rumored to be of questionable legitimacy, some claiming that Prince Joffrey, the heir apparent, along with Prince Tommen and Princess Myrcella are in fact the product of an incestuous and treasonous relationship between the Queen and her brother! Controversy follows the house even further, particularly involving the third child of the Lannister patriarch, Tyrion Lannister. A dwarf, drunk and womanizer, the man is said to be despised by his father, who blames him for the death of his mother Joanna Lannister. Other members of the House include Lancel Lannister, cousin to the Queen, as well as Willem Lannister and Martyn Lannister.
After the death of Jon Arryn, the King has left the Capital for The North, the domain of House Stark, bringing along Queen Cersei, Jaime, Tyrion and the Royal Children. The years and distance have done little to soothe the bad blood between the nobility, it is unclear what the consequences of the King's journey may have on the House or the Seven Kingdoms themselves...
