Theon Harlaw

Theon Harlaw is the natural born son of Lady Alannys Harlaw, originally recognized as Pyke, but in the wake of the Seastone Interregnum, legitimized as the Heir to Harlaw by Visaera I Targaryen. He has ruled the island of his namesake since the passing of his mother in 432 AC, coming to power amidst the bloody civil war remembered as the Black Prophet's Rebellion.

With a keen mind for strategy and matters of statecraft, Theon played a crucial part in winning the war for his younger brother, and it was due to his efforts that House Greyjoy's naval strength was restored during the Four Year Winter that struck the Realm. He had served as Lord Captain of the Iron Fleet for the better part of the season until his resignation in 436 AC. His decision was prompted not by dissent; he was called upon to serve the Realm as King Aegon's Master of Ships, and with the support of the court of Pyke, he accepted the appointment.

For well over a year now, the Lord of Harlaw has been handling his responsibilities as a member of the Small Council with persistence, diligence, and infallible loyalty to the King. He had seen to a seamless transition after his predecessor's resignation, and building upon the latter's reforms, his own policies are simultaneously centered around the preservation of the Royal Fleet's strength and its expansion. His efforts thus far have paid off, for he has been proving not only his own worth, but that of his people as a whole - and it remains one of his goals to establish the Iron Islands as a most valuable asset to the Realm.

As the head of the most distinguished House Harlaw, Captain of the famed Argent Phantom, and a proud father of five, Theon has accomplished much in his life thus far, but his legacy remains yet unfinished. What's certain is that he enjoys a growing recognition in many circles, and his name is conjured with reverence and fear in equal measure.

Like his mother and his uncle had before, he wields House Harlaw's ancestral longsword, Nightfall.
