Jonos Mallister

Jonos Mallister is the firstborn son that came of the union between Lord Cedrick Mallister and Lady Celia Frey. The stout and stubborn man came to his lordship at the relatively young age of twenty-three, when his father died at peace in his sleep. Ever since then he has ruled as Lord of Seagard with a firm hand, determined to continue the work of his father in bring his home and house back to the days before the The Half-Blood Incursion.

Appearance and Character
Graced with comely features Jonos Mallister had been, but the once more pleasant visage had begun to change earlier then expected. At the age of only thirty six, his hair has already turned to a dark grey, and his salt and peppered beard only turns further to salt. Whether this change is natural, or brought on by recent stresses and struggles, it is not known, but the change is not all for naught. To some the graying only added to making the lord look more refined and noble.

His face has not undergone the same drastic change in such a short time as his hair had. Besides a few extra creases, it showed his true age well enough. A worn scar or two laid across his features, gained while fighting in The War of the Three Thieves, and underneath the thick well trimmed beard hid a strong and defined jawline and anvil chin.

The lords figure resembled one of a swimmer, long and lean, rather then that of a muscled knight. Which is of no surprise to those who knew him. Jonos had always been determined and dedicated in his training with blade and lance as a knight, but his place was not truly upon a horse, charging across an open field. It was out in the open sea, with the creaking of a wooden deck beneath his feet as the waders crashed upon his ship. The cool waters were a place of comfort and joy for him, but if need be they would be a place of battle and splintered wood.

History
Jonos as the first born son of Lord Cedrick Mallister was destined for command and rulership, and so he was raised carefully by his father. The history of his lands, especially that of the recent, had been drilled into the young Mallister. He would hear well about the days where his house was among the mightiest, and those days where they were close to extinctions when the Ironborn, who Jonos quickly grew to despise, landed on their shore.

The lessons had been taken well, to the pride of his father, who knew well his son would follow in his footsteps to bring Mallister back to greatness and preventing the repetition of history.

Sadly, the lessons could not continue as long as either would like as Jonos took lordship at the age of twenty and three when his lord father had died in peaceful slumber. It would not take long for the new lord to continue where his father left off though, and with his wife beside him he would bring forth a new generation of Mallisters.

Two children he had had, and another one he would have as he sailed his fleet to fight in The War of the Three Thieves. It was a long and bloody conflict, but it would end and when it did they would be victorious, not without consequences though. Donnel Mallister, his brother, would fall in battle after proving himself so greatly.

The years would not get any kinder for the lord as he only endured more loses. First his wife in the birth of his youngest daughter, and then came his mother who fell into a deep and tortuous illness during the The Scarlet Winter. he had came close to breaking, but the stubborn lord pushed on with hard determination to where he is now.

His family would grown much in the peaceful years following the Mummer's War. His brother would marry a woman from House Hunter, one of the many vale houses that had rebelled, as a way to rebuilt ties between the two regions. His son and heir would guarantee the house a strong ally in Bracken through marriage, his sister would do much the same with Mooten, and finally his daughter would secure ties to the most powerful house in the north, the Manderlys.

Everything was looking better then it had in years for House Mallister, and now as they stepped into 418 AC things were to become only better.
