House Styrion
"(insert motto)"
(insert coat of arms)
History and Geography
House Styrion is a minor house in the Stormlands of Westeros. The seat of power is <<We need a name for the castle >>, a good sized castle sited atop a rocky headland promontory jutting into the stormy waters of << exactly where in the Stormlands are we ? >> (Possibly looking something like this)
Recent years have seen catastrophe befall Stryion: a great storm rolled in across the Narrow Sea, catching the merchant and fishing fleets at sea. Lord Styrion dispatched the modest warfleet to escort the hapless vessels back to safe harbour, but despite their brave efforts four fishers and two merchantmen were lost. Worse still, the very ships sent out to rescue were also caught in the heavy seas - and three of the Styrion warships were smashed against the rocks with the loss of all hands. This has been a heavy blow to Styrion's naval power. The storm blew ashore, bringing heavy flooding inland, and destroying several buildings, and even damaging the castle itself.
