the kingdom is falling, “Ours is the fury.” These are the words of the...
“Ours is the fury.” These are the words of the black stag of Baratheon, a battle cry echoed throughout the land in rebellion when I, Robert Baratheon, the first of his name, seized the Iron Throne from the Mad King, Aerys Targaryen, ending a dynasty nearly 300 years old.

House Baratheon was born in the Wars of Conquest, when Aegon the Dragon invaded Westeros. Aegon sent his commander, Orys Baratheon, to take Storm’s End. Argilac the Arrogant, the last of the Storm Kings, foolishly left the safety of his stronghold and met the Baratheon warlord in open battle. Argilac was soundly defeated, and Orys took his lands, his holdings, and his daughter. Orys was said to be a half-brother to Aegon Targaryen. lf this were true, a little blood of the dragon mingled with that of the stag in those days.

The seat of House Baratheon is Storm’s End - a legendary keep raised in the Age of Heroes. It overlooks Shipbreaker’s Bay where legend has it that Durran, the first Storm King, raised the keep with the aid of Bran the Builder of House Stark, forging a centuries-long connection with the Stormlands and the North. After Aegon’s conquest of the Seven Kingdoms, the Baratheons remained loyal enough to the crown while Targaryen kings came and went. But loyalty has its limits.

When Rhaegar Targaryen, Aerys’s vile son and heir, abducted Lyanna Stark… my betrothed, my beloved… it was time to act. We raised our banners - Baratheon, Stark, Jon Arryn and the Tullys - united in rebellion against Rhaegar and his father, the Mad King. We were victorious and took the Iron Throne. That bit of dragon blood in my veins came in well, as it made me a distant relation to the Targaryen dynasty blood of my long-lost ancestor Orys.

The truth of it is… I took it. I sit on the Iron Throne. I rule the Seven Kingdoms from the Red Keep.

Baratheon Coming and Goings; Modern!AU

It’s Robert’s house, but Renly and Stannis and family often come and go as they please. It’s not like Robert notices too much; he’s often too drunk to realize Renly coming in and snagging a few bottles of wine, Stannis dragging him off to work, or that Shireen spends more time there than at her own home since Selyse is too busy doing her daily worships at church. Through all the dysfunctionality, Mya and Gendry are the ones to plow through it and make sure everyone stays on track.

The first three are Lannisters, though.

MagnoliaFairy 08-30-2012 08:37 AM

May I please be added? :)

Natasha Romanoff 08-30-2012 08:47 AM

Welcome :wave:

I think although Joffrey, Myrcella and Tommen are Lannisters in blood, they are raised under Baratheons' influence so I'm fine with them being included in the OP :P

Roxy87 08-30-2012 12:48 PM

I was torn on that too, but then they do consider Robert their father, so...

I've been trying to work on a graphic with Robert's illegitemate kids and was wondering if the ones who haven't appeared in the showvverse yet, but who have appeared/were mentioned in the first two books should be fancasted into it. Thoughts?
