Rhaegar Wylde

Ser Rhaegar Wylde is the second son of Cedric Wylde and Rhaena Vhassyl, as well as their second child. He is the younger brother of Valerion Wylde, the twin brother of Rhaenyra, and the older brother of Daena and Joanna Wylde.

He is married to Marya Herston, and has two legal children by her - Gysella and Addam, and an bastard daughter Darlessa by a common woman.

Appearance and Character
Born and raised as an image of a knight, he represents a much needed masculine and knightly influence on the court in Rainhouse, and is one of his House's most skilled knights alive.

Rhaegar looks much alike with his elder brother, though taller and broader in the shoulders and chest.

Rhaegar is in great favour among knights and ladies, it is only to his brother, Valerion, that he shows a darker side of his personality.

Childhood
Rhaegar Wylde for born 2 years after the kidnapping of his brother and his coming was received with great joy from his parents. He and his twin sister's arrival greatly reduced the grief and mourning of the Wyldes. However, throughout his life, Rhaegar would always feel that he's a replacing something.

At the age of 8, he started his schooling under the maester of Rainhouse. Unfortunately, the boy was awkward and half-hearted when it came to learning his letters, his hero being Aemon the Dragonknight, Ser Barristan the Bold, and other great knights of history and legends.

Youth
When he turned 10, the young boy was sent to Griffin's Roost to be Ser Rodrik Connington's first squire, to the pleasure of both the man and the boy. The two developed a firm friendship during those years.

At the age of 18, he was knighted, for fighting bravely with his fellow Stormlanders in the War of the Three Thieves.

He returned to Rainhouse soon after the war, and spent two years traveling around Westeros as a tourney knight.

Return of the Lost
Ser Rhaegar Wylde was called home one day in 405 AC, where he learned that his lost brother was, in fact, not lost.

The man claiming to be his brother certainly looked like a Wylde, but smaller and frailer than Rhaegar. Despite never caring much about his birthright - Rainhouse, he was still jealous when their father declared Brandon as his heir, and wrote to Lord Gwayne to fulfill the bethrothel between Brandon Wylde and Jocelyn Baratheon.

Oh, and the fact that Valerion was a pillow slave kinda made matters worse.

Rhaegar believes that his elder brother does not deserve the wealth and honours he has received. His feelings to his brother is a mix of envy, contempt, and strangely, protection.
