Florian Florent

Ser Florian Florent (Self-Titled as Lord Florent) is the head of House Florent (Currently of Oldtown). Having come into the title only recently after the self-imposed exile of his older brother, Artys Florent.

History
It is a truth universally acknowledged...That House Florent has seen better days. From long and storied descent and importance in the Reach, to a mere memory in a matter of decades. Thus was the story of House Florent.

True enough, after the loss of Brightwater Keep to the Tyrells they had been offered refuge in Oldtown and some minor lands off of which to live. Yet it was nothing compared to what they once had. It was unfair, it was treachery...

...It was a long-awaited plot of the Tyrells to try and remove one of the few families who actually had a legitimate claim to the entirety of the Reach. Stannis and his men be damned, no other house had been treated like this. It was a Tyrell plot, a conspiracy...An act of jealousy.

This is what Florian and his siblings grew up being taught, this was what they had come to believe.

Having been born the second son, Florian was given over to his own affairs more than anything else. He quickly took to finding employ with caravans and traders to earn extra money for his impoverished family. And though he had to hide his name, the memory of the injustice his family had faced only grew stronger.

In time he had gathered about himself a group of loyal followers, smallfolk and minor knights he had won to his cause. They took to finding employ as protectors of the people of Oldtown and the surrounding holdings, rangers who lived in the woods and by the paths, keeping them safe through famine and rebellion.

But Florian never forgot the Tyrell's injury to his family, and even when his brother was head of the House, he swore he would one day see Brightwater Keep in his family's hands again, if only he could gather more men and support.

His brother abandoning the family and fleeing to Essos didn't change those plans at all, apart from forcing Florian to spend more time in and about Oldtown, playing the noble 'hostage' for Lucifer, for that was what he truly was.

Recent Affairs
Having been forced to stay behind during the Tournament of Harrenhal, Florian spent the time instead out in the countryside, even encroaching upon the borders of Brightwater Keep now and then.

The Tyrells would pay dearly for their mistake. The Fox of Florent would rise again.
