The great families whose rivalries shaped a continent.
House Stark
The North"Winter is Coming"
Lords of Winterfell for thousands of years. Their words are not a boast — they are a warning. Defined by honour, duty, and a deep bond with the land they protect.
House Lannister
The Westerlands"Hear Me Roar" / "A Lannister Always Pays His Debts"
The wealthiest family in Westeros. Their gold has bought thrones, silence, and wars. Power built on ruthlessness and fear.
House Targaryen
Dragonstone"Fire and Blood"
For nearly three centuries, the Targaryens ruled with dragons. When the dragons died, the dynasty rotted from within until Robert's Rebellion ended their reign.
House Baratheon
The Stormlands"Ours is the Fury"
Founded on rebellion when Robert overthrew the Mad King. Fractured after his death and nearly destroyed by the War of the Five Kings.
