Rolland Caron

Rolland Caron is the first son of the late Vortimer Caron and Larra Dondarrion. After becoming more and more estranged with his father, he publically opposed him during the Second Hammer Uprising, and though his father was forced to abdicate following the end of the war, Rolland too abdicated to Ronnel, his younger brother, who was sent into the care of Storm's End. Through his youth, he had courted and loved Melissa Selmy for many years, and despite their betrothal coming official, Melissa passed away from complications related to the Blue Winter. Following this, Rolland lost all interest in ruling or being forced to remarry, but not wanting to pollute the halls of Nightsong with his presence; he swore that he'd wear a white cloak, or a black one.
