Adrian Celtigar

Lord Ardrian Celtigar is the Lord of Claw Isle and head of House Celtigar. After being seated as Lord of Claw Isle following his father's execution in 367 AC, Ardrian vowed undying loyalty to King Aenar in an attempt to counteract his father's misgivings.

Ardrian wed his second cousin, Laena, in 368 AC following his father's execution. Since then, Ardrian and Laena have had Lucerys Celtigar, Corlys Celtigar, and Elaena Celtigar.

Appearance and Character
Ardrian, bearing the telltale characteristics of a Valyrian-blooded individual, boasts azure eyes and silver-blonde hair. At six-foot-one and slightly muscular from the years he spent on the sea, the Lord of Claw Isle stands out amongst a crowd.

The Lord of Claw Isle nearly always dons a black, flowing robe with a high collar, emblazoned with a single red crab on his left breast. Other times he will be found in a crimson surcoat, embroidered in an obsidian stitch with crabs sewn running up the arms.

History
Lord Ardrian Celtigar is a weathered man. The salt air of the sea, a multitude of battles, and an unhealthy drinking habit have all come together to make a hardened man like no other. His elder brother Haegon, disinherited and exiled by his father for treason (a story suited for another time), was the most recent Captain-General of the Golden Company. His father, Crispian Celtigar, served as Hand of the King and was involved in a scandal with the Lenore Blackwood that ultimately cost him his position and his life. With the scandal, shame fell upon House Celtigar.

Lord Ardrian immediately began attempting to rebuild House Celtigar and bring them to the forefront of Westerosi politics once more. During the Hammer Uprising, Lord Ardrian himself took on a more than a handful of rebellious men on Cracklaw Point while offering some of his own men to Duskendale and Maidenpool in the subsequent uprisings.

In the most recent war, the War of the Three Kings, House Celtigar served a greater purpose. To Lord Ardrian, this would be the redeeming moment of House Celtigar. Eager to prove loyalty, Lord Ardrian immediately called his banners and set sail for King's Landing when called upon by King Aenar. Sailing below the shadow of Viserion and his King, Lord Ardrian led House Celtigar into battle. Though not a true success, the battle was grand. After the withdrawal from the Battle of Splinters, what was left of the Celtigar fleet served as ferries until the end of the battled now dubbed 'Ormollens Pyre'.

The fleet was ordered to search for the missing dragon egg, but to no avail. Soon, the Celtigar fleet returned to Claw Isle. The wounded were tended to, ships were repaired, and new ships were built in the subsequent years. Now, with the loyalty of House Celtigar confirmed, and the war won, Lord Ardrian seeks to further increase his reputation through political moves. His father served as Hand of the King, surely that alone would have some pull in King's Landing politics. With his involvement in the war, that would only serve to further launch House Celtigar back into the political scene.
