Jason Lannister

Jason Lannister was the youngest son of Lord Loreon Lannister. He has three children. He was married to Mya Lefford, daughter of the Lord of the Golden Tooth.

Appearance & Character
Jason is a tall, handsome man, with golden hair and green eyes. Arrogant, amoral and cunning, Jason has a sharp wit and a sharper tongue. Somewhat competent leading men in battle, the wayward youngest son of Lord Lannister found himself far more at home amongst the wealthy merchants and burghers of Lannisport - his true home.

Early Life
Jason was born in 367 AC. As a scion of House Lannister he was taught from a young age to wield a sword by the Rock's then master-at-arms, Ser Matthos Payne. Realising he had more talent at keeping accounts and managing ledgers, Loreon sent Jason to work under Harrold Plumm, the seneschal of Casterly Rock. It was from the Plumm that Jason learnt the basics of managing a holdfast. At the age of 12 he became a squire under Lord Lefford, and was knighted a few days after his twenty second nameday - on the insistence of his father, who hoped it would force his youngest son to forsake his decadent ways. It did not.

In 387 AC he was wed to Mya Lefford, the daughter of the Lord of the Golden Tooth. Once again it was only due to the perseverance of his Lord Father that Jason was brought to the Sept. Jason, who was much more comfortable in the lavish surroundings of one of Lannisport's many brothels, had showed little interest in marriage - or of accepting any sort of responsibility whatsoever, content to spend the rest of his days whoring, drinking and feasting. Marriage, however, proved a blessing in disguise for the young Lannister. He quickly found himself smitten with his new bride, and the two grew closer with every passing day. The couple had their first son in 389 AC, named Willem. Two more children followed soon after: Reyna and Tommen, twins, on the year 391 AC.

Along with the rest of Lord Loreon's other sons, Jason accompanied the Western armies and navies in the War of the Three Thieves. Though he did not excel in combat or as a general, Jason served well enough so as not to disappoint his Lord Father.

Recent Events
In 402 AC, the young Lion at last decided to devote his life and skills to serving House Lannister and the Westerlands. He was not his father's heir, and so could not involve himself in high politics or the management of the Rock itself. Unlike his brother Gerald, he had little prowess commanding men on the battlefield, and so had no place in the armies of the Westerlands. In the end, after much searching, it was agreed with his father that Jason would be groomed to administer the City of Lannisport herself.

He was at first given a commission as a Captain in the City Watch, before soon being transferred to the Office of the city's Lord Mayor. It was quickly discovered that many of the shady connections Jason had made in the city's winesinks and whorehouses made him a poor choice for serving in the City Watch.

Jason played a great part in ensuring Lannisport continued to function during the Scarlet Winter. It was his idea to send teams of workers to break the ice which had frozen Lannisport's docks solid, halting any and all sea-faring trade. Though the initiative proved ultimately unsuccessful, Jason was soon named as second to the aging and frail Lord Mayor of the City of Lannisport.

These attempts fell through, and Jason Lannister was instead named Lord Marshal of the West following Lord Regenard Crakehall's death. The man had proved himself amply fair at martial, and would continue such prowess during the War of Three Banners.

He died in 436 AC, succeeded by his son, Willem. He died of a bad leg.
