House Clegane is a knightly house that holds fealty to House Lannister of Casterly Rock, and are among their primary bannermen.

The house was founded by the kennelmaster at Casterly Rock after he safed lord Tytos Lannister from a lioness. As a reward, the kennelmaster gained a towerhouse with land southeast of Lannisport. The sigil of house Clegane is three dogs on a yellow field, representing the three dogs that died defending lord Tytos. The kennelmaster´s son died in a hunting accident shortly after King Robert Baratheon was crowned, leaving his son Gregor Clegane as the lord of the Clegane lands.

Features[]

  • Clegane’s Keep, the keep itself, is located on a mountain ridge. It guards the passage through the valley towards Hetherspoon and Lannisport. Once a promising estate, it fell into a state of decay after a period of neglect.
  • The farmlands, in the valley around the keep, is home to a small amount of villagers. During the reign of ser Gregor Clegane the inhabitants of the valley slowly began to leave the area. Most families that stayed behind are either too poor to move or have too much to lose.
  • Abandoned mine, along the road to Hetherspoon. The mine was once used to mine silver, but has been abandoned during the reign of ser Gregor Clegane.

Inspiration[]

The inspiration for the build were mostly Spanish, Italian, and French castles, as well as other builds in the Westerlands.

The castles of the rulers Vlad Dracul (Poenari castle) and Elizabeth Báthory (Čachtice Castle), both known for their cruelty, were used as inspiration for the build as well. (See Application)
